At this time, the personnel in the "Asuka Film Company", except for the right-hand man sent to the "company" by Steve, and the British major officer of the secret service, Howard, speculated that the real task was to prepare for an attack on the Netherlands. In order to deepen this delusion, after Dean Rose got in touch with the Dutch underground, Steve ordered someone to smuggle a Dutch partisan leader named Hank to London in a ** speedboat, with Hanny acting as an interpreter. Steve explained to him the intention of the Allies to attack the Netherlands. Two days later, Hank flew back to the Netherlands, where he was arrested by the Gestapo on the third day. Eight hours of torture allowed the Dutchman to finally confess. For the first time, the Germans confirmed the readiness of the Allies to attack the Netherlands.

On the fourth day after Hank's arrest, "Asuka Film Company" welcomed a new "client" Baker. When Baker returned to the Netherlands after completing his mission, he was soon arrested by the Gestapo as well. However, his arrest allowed Steve's counterintelligence plan to start working. On May 16, 1946, the Germans increased their defense of the Netherlands. In order to convince the Germans that the landing site was in the Netherlands, one afternoon in mid-May, Steve and Howard attended a joint meeting of the British and American high-level to plot to expand the suspicions. Soon after the meeting, a large number of submarines appeared strangely around the island of Messi, side by side, and groups of tanks appeared on land, guns and cannons sprung up. However, these were all props used by the Allies to deceive the Germans when the Germans were shooting reconnaissance from the air.

As a trump card for German intelligence, Hanny was as cunning as a fox, and she never touched it. In the end, Howard had no choice but to give the key to Dean Rose at the end of the day, and left in a hurry, allowing him to take it back to the apartment, so that Hanny could calmly print the wax model. To find out if Hanny had stolen the secret letter, Steve asked Howard to play a little trick by putting a paper clip on the stamp of the secret envelope, and the envelope would fall off as soon as it was slightly opened. Steve thinks that Hanny won't notice a paper clip when she commits a crime in the dark.

On the afternoon of June 2, Huo Hua invited colleagues from the "Bird Film Company" to the hotel for dinner, and made an appointment to return to the "company" at about 9 o'clock after the meal to continue work and complete a batch of documents. In order to buy Hanny valuable time to commit the crime, Howard deliberately asked Dean Ross to accompany him, and separated him from Hanny under the pretext that he had something to discuss. While everyone was enjoying the delicious food, in the office of "Asuka Film Company", Hanny was picking the lock in the dark with a key made with a wax model. Soon, she used the matchbox camera she carried with her to capture the strategic map of the landing in the Netherlands.

At 9 p.m., Howard and Dean Ross returned to the "company" on time. Everyone has arrived, except for Hanny. Howard checked the safe, then called Steve to report that "the paperclip on the envelope has come off." Hanny did exactly what she wanted. "What are we going to do now?" Howard asked.

"Help her get out and go back home." Steve replied.

Secretly followed by American and British intelligence officers, Hanny successfully boarded the German submarine (which was specially sent by the Germans in response to her urgent radio request). Hanny traveled all the way and rushed to Germany in ****. When German intelligence received photographs of Hanni's secretly forged classified documents, they immediately forwarded them to Hitler. Within a day, the German army was ordered to move to the Netherlands. On June 6, the day of the counteroffensive came. The Allies began the epoch-making Normandy landings. The Germans suffered defeat due to intelligence errors. The Allies, on the other hand, were able to reduce many unnecessary sacrifices due to the success of the counterintelligence program.

In the face of such a defeat, the famous female spy Hanni Harroud was also dumbfounded. Enraged, Himmler, the head of German intelligence, immediately ordered Hanny to be executed. The Allied forces arrived in Normandy at the same time that Hanny Harroud was killed in Berlin.

The Normandy landings were a strategic amphibious landing on the mainland, completely different from the island landing between the United States and Japan in the Pacific, and landing on the beachhead meant victory. Due to the relatively large depth of the mainland, even if the beachhead is landed, the defending side can transfer reserve troops from other places to organize a counterattack and drive the landing side into the sea. In Salerno and Anzio in Italy, the Germans relied on rapid reaction, swift maneuvering, and resolute counterattacks to suppress the landing Allied forces on the narrow landing beachhead. The German army in France was superior to the German army in Italy in terms of reaction power and combat effectiveness, and the railways and road communications in France were more developed than those in Italy, so the Allies of course knew very well what kind of resistance they would encounter. Therefore, the key to the success or failure of the Normandy landing lies in withstanding the German counterattack in the first two weeks of the landing and establishing a unified and consolidated landing field. However, before the Allies occupied the large port, they could only transport 12 to 15 divisions, including 1 to 2 armored divisions, and ensure the supply of food, oil, and ammunition for these troops. On the other hand, the Germans, although only 6 divisions were deployed in Normandy, could transfer 25 to 30 divisions from all over the country in three days, of which 7 to 8 armored divisions were used for counterattack. With such a large force compared to the inferiority, the Allies had almost no chance of victory. In other words, victory was only possible if German reinforcements were prevented from reaching Normandy. In order to achieve the goal of preventing German reinforcements, the Allies adopted a two-pronged approach, on the one hand, using a powerful air force to bomb railway and road targets in northwestern France, blocking communications to Normandy, so that German reinforcements could not reach. On the other hand, strategic deception and camouflage were carried out to convince the German high command that after the Normandy landings, there would be another, larger landing.

Only when German reinforcements reached Normandy could they win. In order to achieve the goal of preventing German reinforcements, the Allies adopted a two-pronged approach, on the one hand, using a powerful air force to bomb railway and road targets in northwestern France, blocking communications to Normandy, so that German reinforcements could not reach. On the other hand, it was to carry out strategic deception and camouflage to convince the German high command that after the Normandy landing, there would be another bigger landing, so it did not transfer reinforcements to Normandy. - This strategic deception was the most secretive part of the Normandy landings, and only a part of it was revealed in the declassified archives fifty years later.

In October 1947, Lieutenant General Morgan, deputy chief of staff of the Allied High Command, proposed that relevant deception and secrecy measures be developed to ensure the success of the landing. Codenamed Jay, the program involved the British Military Intelligence, the Special Operations Bureau, the Counterintelligence Service, the Double Cross Commission, the Political Warfare Enforcement Service, the U.S. Strategic Intelligence Agency (the predecessor of the CIA), the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the Allied Army, Navy, and Air Force Intelligence. The core department is the London Office of Overseers, which is located at 2 Great George Street, the seat of Churchill's wartime cabinet, and is responsible for formulating and implementing strategic deception and reconnaissance operations, and coordinating the British and Allied intelligence services to organize major operations. Now it has become the organization of strategic deception in the Normandy landings. The motto is witty, cunning and sophisticated, and the coat of arms is a statue of the half-human, half-sheep god of agriculture and animal husbandry, Saturn, an elf in ancient Roman mythology who specializes in making waves. The current Commissioner is British Army Lieutenant Colonel John Beavan, whose nickname is Chief of Fraud. Although his position and rank were not high, he had a lot of authority, and even Churchill and Roosevelt sometimes had to arrange activities according to his request.

In October 1946, it was originally renamed the "Guardian" program. Its purpose was twofold: first, to induce the German army to disperse throughout Europe through various means, so as to reduce the German defenders in France, especially in the Normandy area, to a minimum. The second was to convince the German high command that the Normandy landings were only a feint aimed at inducing the Germans to commit to reserve forces prematurely, so as to create conditions for the next larger-scale main attack. The latter purpose is the core content of the "Defender" plan, and this content cannot directly fall into the hands of the German army, but must be reversed in an indirect way, so that the German army has spent a lot of effort to obtain such a star and a half, and then according to such clues, it will analyze, reason, and generalize, and draw erroneous conclusions that are in line with the hopes of the Allies. After listening to Beavan's plan, Allied Supreme Commander Eisenhower wrote an instruction saying "I like all this" and sent Colonel Wilder, director of the "Special Means Committee", a deception expert of the Supreme Command, to fully assist Beavan in his entirety.

In order to achieve the first purpose of the "Guardian" plan, that is, to disperse the German army, Bivan implemented the "Zeppelin" plan in southern Europe: at the beginning of 1944, the Soviet army had approached Romania and Hungary, and both Romania and Hungary had a premonition that Germany's defeat was assured, so they sent secret envoys to contact Britain and the United States to secretly discuss surrender. However, the British radio and newspapers have revealed the secrets of both sides, intentionally or unintentionally. Germany could not tolerate the presence of traitors in southern Europe and decided to send troops to occupy Hungary. But at that time, the German army was on the Soviet battlefield on the Eastern Front, and the battle situation was very tense, and it was impossible to withdraw troops at all; Fierce fighting was raging on the beaches of Anzio in Italy on the southern flank, and there were no troops to draw. In the end, three armored divisions and one infantry division had to be drawn from France, and on October 19, 1947, they occupied the entire territory of Hungary and imprisoned Hungarian Prime Minister Kali in a concentration camp. Romania was frightened and suspended secret contacts with Britain and the United States. In this way, although Germany controlled the situation in southern Europe, it lost 4 divisions of elite troops in France。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。
