205 a disaster
"Catch!" Speaking of the royal family, especially His Majesty the King, who once vacillated between resistance and surrender, Churchill felt that he was actually betrayed by this group of royal families who had been in contact with Hitler in private!
In Churchill's view, how could such a large hostile bloc have been possible if it had not been for the unity of the royalists and the Nazis at home?
It is precisely because of the unity of such a large number of interest groups that there is a situation in which no matter how much you look for German spies, you can't find them. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
It is these people who are covering each other and letting go of those real spies that will make the investigation so difficult, and will let the repeated censorship break the hearts of Churchill supporters.
He hadn't thought this for a day or two, but had had such doubts at the very beginning.
Espionage warfare at the national level is inevitably a pyramid structure. To put it bluntly, when spies are arranged, there are many people at the basic level and few at the senior level.
Because everyone is wary of each other, it is already difficult to find a partner with an extremely clean background, which is also an important reason why espionage work needs to be accumulated for a long time.
As soon as the war broke out between the two countries, all officers and civilians of German origin were effectively controlled, and few of them held important positions.
Some people who often oppose the War Virgin have also become the focus of observation, and they also have little opportunity to get in touch with the real core intelligence.
Therefore, in this general environment, it is simply difficult for Germany to temporarily arrange intelligence officers to make a difference in Britain.
Those spies who played a role are all old spies who have been lurking for several years, or even more than ten years, and their backgrounds are impossible to find out.
And among these people, there are even fewer high-ranking spies who can participate in British secrecy - it is not an exaggeration to say that they are one in a million.
The rest of the grassroots spies are irrelevant. Everyone will ask many people to go to other countries to understand the basic situation, this kind of spy has a low danger factor, a huge base, and cannot be caught.
It's just that such a spy can't access core secrets except for investigating some customs and sending back some basic information to verify judgment.
Of course, between the two kinds of spies, there is a kind of spy that is concealed and efficient, and although the cost is high, but the effect is better, it is easier to succeed, and that is the female spy.
Under normal circumstances, such a woman who sacrificed for the country would sell her body and become the lover or wife of the high-ranking officers of the enemy country.
With this layer of identity protection, ordinary counter-espionage investigation agencies will not easily conduct in-depth investigations. After all, people with status don't want their small actions to be watched by others, so they will resist and obstruct this kind of investigation.
And if there are high-ranking military officers who obstruct it, the investigation will not go too smoothly, which will make it safer for some female spies to use their status as "civilians" to access high-level documents.
In this way, a gap will be formed, because the work of investigating grassroots spies is high and the effort is low, so it is easy to slip through the net.
On the contrary, these women can take advantage of the convenience of having access to military officers, quickly gain access to high-level military secrets, and easily obtain high-value information.
As for these female spies who have sacrificed their youth for the country, and some even have given their lives, whether they are worth it or not can only be left to them to weigh themselves.
Churchill's suspicions of royalty were not for nothing, as George VI had been a wavering King before him. He had supported Chamberlain's appeasement and later became Churchill's backer.
Although it seems that he is still standing with Churchill, who knows if the other side has turned to compromise because of the unfavorable war?
However, although the royal family may be dissatisfied with Churchill's policies and question his operational deployment, there is no need for the royal family to sell British state secrets, which is something that Churchill cannot explain.
It is logically easy to judge that the king is the one who least wants his country to be defeated, and he will never betray the core interests of this country. And now that the homeland has been attacked, this is definitely a manifestation of the core interests being shaken, and it is the last thing His Majesty can tolerate.
If, on the other hand, someone wants to change His Majesty, or to say that he is the next His Majesty, it is possible to go to the Germans for cooperation.
Churchill was worried about such a traitor, or the emergence of a royal traitor. There is no moral limit for such a bastard, and that's the scariest thing about that.
So he ordered that the Imperial Family be investigated, in order to find out the hidden dangers that might arise, and at the same time to find out the real "shadow" of the Germans.
However, there are two sides to everything, and Churchill saw the good for himself, but chose to ignore the danger of it.
You know, investigating the royal family is a very serious matter, and investigating the privacy of most of the top officials at the same time is a practice that causes public outrage.
No one wants their privacy to be investigated, especially by a powerful presence like the state apparatus – just as people today don't want to be doxed.
When personal privacy is placed in broad daylight, the feeling of being naked will make people cry and laugh without collapsing.
Even in 1940, before the Internet, everyone had secrets......
Who would be honest with his wife that he had chased seven girls and had been with two of them?
Who would tell her husband that when her husband was on a business trip, she had an eye with the old Wang of the next door, and finally did a fake show?
Who would want to receive a kickback, vote in favor of the proposal to order battleships, and sincerely exaggerate the threat of the enemy's navy?
Who would want others to know that they have saved a small coffer behind their wife's back, and there is enough money in it to support another family?
Who would want others to find out that the last batch of military tents purchased by themselves were actually produced by their brother-in-law, and the quality was called a miserable one?
Frankly speaking, most people have their own secrets, whether they are personal or public, they are not allowed to be known.
The results of the investigation are sometimes not what the intelligence services want, but the results have been grasped by the intelligence services, which is a disaster in itself.
The admiral is actually a homosexual; Churchill liked to when he took a bath; His Majesty the King has the smell of a fox; The Chancellor of the Exchequer had three lovers......
If you think about how terrible it really is that the results of such an investigation have finally unfolded, you can understand why other countries are angry after the scandal of the United States spying on the leaders of other countries is exposed.
If someone uses these scandals to blackmail politicians, does they control the whole country? If someone grasps the intimate hobbies of these dignitaries and does what they like, will they get twice the result with half the effort?
Intelligence is sometimes so terrifying, so terrifying that it is prohibitive. However, because of the ubiquity of the "shadow" of the German intelligence network, Churchill forgot about this hidden devil for a while.
So, it is precisely because of this that the largest trial in history has begun. In this massive investigation, no one seems to have been spared.
"I think it's Major General Sempe...... Why? Because he bought a villa when he was 39 years old...... How could he afford a villa with that income? It must be a spy of the Germans! A delicate female secretary of the Navy Department said crying at the interrogation table.
Looking at her beautiful curly hair, and her graceful figure, listening to her soft sobbing voice, it really made a listener sad and a listener wept.
The officer of the intelligence department was filled with compassion and hurriedly handed over a handkerchief. The girl took it and wiped her tears, and said with a silky look, "Thank you." If you can clear my name, I'll repay you. ”
Fools also know that tonight looks like a play! The intelligence officer's eyes lit up, he quickly nodded, wrote an artistic signature on the document, and did not forget to touch the girl's little hand when he was done.
"I suspect it's Lieutenant General Clark! Don't ask me why, just look at him and you'll know he's a German spy! Major-General Semp played with a pen and expressed his thoughts in another room.
Although I don't know why I said this, the intelligence department still found Lieutenant General Clark.
Sure enough, as soon as they met, this ugly-looking Lieutenant General Clark made everyone lose their appetite for lunch - so ugly! Why are you so embarrassed to come out and meet people?
"Do you need to ask? Admiral Dudley Pound! It's definitely him! Only he has access to such a core secret! You should arrest him immediately! "Lieutenant General Clark was so righteous that he directly betrayed his commander.
In Dudley Pound's office, he was reminiscing about his experience to two officers of the Secret Security Service who had come to visit: "Yes, in order to arrange the escort mission, I gave the timetable of the transport fleet to Major General Hawke of the Air Force. ”
"What are you kidding? I took the materials home, but I was the only one at home with my son, Brown! Major General Hawke replied with tears on his face and gritted his teeth.
"Well, General Hawke...... May we ask your son, Mr. Brown, who he has been in contact with lately? The intelligence officer who came for interrogation asked formulaically as he took notes.
"Yes, he was shot down by the Germans the day before yesterday and died in the suburbs of London." Brown looked at the group of bastards who came to interrogate him, and he was angry: "If you really have the courage to find a plane to fight like a man, you can meet him." ”
