Chapter 475:
Xiao Mubai's first feeling was that this person was very knowledgeable, but he was not a pure scholar and professor, this person was more of an old man, although the suit he wore gave him a bureaucratic atmosphere. Vertex updates are the fastest
"Sir, I'm here for Hefel. Ewald Herfer von Kleist, former Commercial Counsellor to the United States, is now a Liaison Officer for the Military Industry. I am his younger brother, Lieutenant Heinrich, greetings. Xiao Mubai saluted the old man with a national defense salute.
The old man was very kind, and although his politeness did not make him kinder to himself, it was evidently not disgusting.
Sure enough, the old man didn't say anything because of Xiao Mubai's rough hands, but took off his hat with a smile and saluted: "Your Excellency Lieutenant, I think you have made a mistake, this is the National Defense Force Liaison Office, and the Military Industry Liaison Office is over there." As he spoke, the old man pointed to the office on the other side of the hallway.
"Orpheus, you send this gentleman over, Military Liaison Office." The old man pointed at Xiao Mubai and said to a young man who followed next to him.
Xiao Mubai glanced at the young secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and looked at his face carefully, Kolbe was obviously not of this age, he was at least thirty years old at the moment, so it could not be this secretary named Orpheus at all.
"Mr. Lieutenant, please follow me." Orpheus nodded and obeyed the order, and then said to Xiao Mubai to lead the way in front, Xiao Mubai said goodbye to the old man, and then followed the secretary to the Military Liaison Office.
The failure to enter the Wehrmacht Liaison Office this time was a big setback for Xiao Mubai, but it was not very frustrating, and Kolbe's news could also be learned from the mouth of this person named Orpheus.
Just as Xiao Mubai was thinking like this, he heard the old man walk into the office and say, "Fritz, follow me." Have you sorted out and analyzed the content of the documents that were conveyed yesterday about the actions of the French Resistance? ”
Xiao Mubai's hesitant footsteps paused, his steps became brisk, he did not stay long outside the National Defense Force Liaison Office, but quickly glanced at the entrance of the office, and saw a middle-aged man who was not good-looking, and knew that this was Colbe.
Fritz Kolbe, the famous spy.
It really didn't take much effort to get it, and Xiao Mubai was very satisfied to see Kolbe like this, but there was another thing in front of him, how to contact Kolbe, how to convey this Valkyrie operation, and make the allies prepared.
In front of the Military Liaison Office, Xiao Mubai stopped and thanked Secretary Orpheus, and then under the surprised eyes of the office staff, Shi Shiran walked in and sat down, made a cup of coffee, picked up a newspaper and read it.
Kolbe is now in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which is good news for Xiao Mubai.
He didn't have to travel all the way to Bern, Switzerland, which saved him at least a day, and if Kolbe happened to be on his way back to Berlin, he might have missed it with him, wasting even more time and missing the opportunity for the operation.
stayed in the Military Industry Liaison Office for a while, and when Hefer had something to leave, Xiao Mubai also left the Ministry of Foreign Affairs building, entered a café outside, and secretly waited for Kolbe, who was still inside.
Xiao Mubai found one of his own disadvantages, and he always fought alone, not as a team. If he had a well-organized team he could rely on, he could have done anything about Kolbe in advance, instead of rushing in as he did now.
The war is not moving, intelligence comes first.
If there is a detailed plan, Xiao Mubai will not need to work as hard as he does now, just sit back and wait for it to be implemented. While sitting in a café in front of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Xiao Mubai waited for Kolbe's appearance and suddenly thought of this question.
If a team is a team, investigate Kolbe's identity, family members, educational background, and social activities, as well as his work patterns and living habits. Xiao Mubai knew that he would come to this café to drink coffee, instead of waiting for him to come for coffee, Colbe went to drink tea.
When Xiao Mubai knew that Colbe liked Shakespeare's plays rather than preparing to talk to him about Macbeth, people were interested in the popular history of the Count of Monte Cristo.
Xiao Mubai's luck was not bad this time, an hour and a half after getting off work in the afternoon, after he was a little impatient to wait, Kolbe finally came out.
When he came out, Xiao Mubai saw it at a glance.
Dressed in an ordinary suit, Kolbe, like every Foreign Ministry functionary, always maintained a sense of elegance and composure, with a briefcase in his hand and a Volkswagen slowly moving along the River Spree.
Xiao Mubai looked around, noticed that no one was staring, and drove the 82-barrel truck to follow.
The sun disappeared below the horizon, and Berlin was lifeless against the dim street lamps, and the most three or two people on the road were either patrolmen or SS secret police, adding a little eerie to the ruined Berlin.
Following Kolbe, when he was less than 500 meters away from his home, in order to avoid being noticed, Xiao Mubai decisively stopped and walked to Kolbe's home.
It didn't take much effort at all, Xiao Mubai rushed into Colbe's simple home, a private house on the second floor. As soon as I entered, I found Kolbe's study and went inside, stopping at the door and waiting for Kolbe to appear.
With a "squeak", the door to the study was opened, and as Colbe closed the door of the study, his movements froze, because a dark and cold muzzle against his head, the breath of a stranger made him realize that the other party was not good.
"Who are you?" Kolbe asked calmly, knowing that the other party had an obvious ulterior motive in this way.
"I'm Friday, a Friday from the U.S. Office of Strategic Services. Mr. Kolbe, I have lost contact with my upline, and I would like to ask you to hand over this document to Mr. Girard of Bern. Xiao Mubai said with a smile, putting down the gun and sitting on the chair as he spoke.
On the desk, a file bag was placed, on which were written the staff of the reserve army, top secret documents, top secret documents that were not allowed to be reviewed without permission.
"......" Kolbe maintained the posture just now, staring at Xiao Mubai with questioning, as if asking why he knew his identity.
"Sir, I have no ill intentions, you have done a good job, and Mr. Donovan of Langley, Virginia has a great appreciation for you." Xiao Mubai smiled and showed that he was not any threat to him, and spoke in fluent English.
Kolbe remained silent and did not speak.
Xiao Mubai believed that excellent spies were always silent at this time, and he didn't mind Colbe's silence, but took out the document and unfolded it in front of him, and slowly narrated Valkyrie's actions.
"This is an event that the Wehrmacht's internal resistance group, the Black Band, is preparing to do. The plan was to be executed at 12 o'clock on July 20, and Hitler would die in the explosion. The conspirators wanted the Allies to participate in the operation, saturation bombing the Wolf's Lair, and knocking out the core of Nazi Germany in one fell swoop. ”
"This is Admiral Baker's handwritten letter, you can take it back, please bring back a word, I believe in this plan very much."
