317 The younger brother was a captive
Major George stood in front of his radio equipment, a bored expression on his face. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 InfoHalf a month ago, on Churchill's orders, he was in front of this important radio station and listened to a channel that did not appear very often.
In fact, he didn't want the channel to have a voice, because the last time it appeared, the code-breaking department lost a full 73 math geniuses and workers with the name of professors and scholars.
Turing chose death, but dragged countless people to be buried with him. The German shadow forces had not yet been caught, so the interrogation was easily expanded.
This is really a sad thing, and countless people have died because of unjust imprisonment. The British assassination and the means of dealing with traitors were no milder than the Gestapo's methods of dealing with the same problem.
Although he knew the news coming from this channel, Prime Minister Churchill took it very seriously. And the British intelligence services, up and down, are also waiting for this channel to be active again.
However, Major George did not want to hear any sound, nor did he want to hear any cipher code on this channel.
"It looks like there's no news coming today." He leaned back in his chair and smiled at the pretty young female secretary beside him.
The female secretary holds a coffee pot in her hand and has a charming smile on her face. Her husband served on the coastline, and she couldn't bear the loneliness of being newly married, and got together with her boss in front of her.
During the war years, there was no morality. In an age when being alive is the lowest goal, any moral restraint pales in comparison.
Maybe tomorrow, an aerial bomb will fall, and both of them will be charred corpses - what can be counted as a betrayal or something?
"My husband, their troops canceled their leave." The woman poured some black coffee into Major George's coffee cup and said this lightly.
The Major knew that it was an invitation from his own secretary. He quietly grabbed the phone on the table in front of him and said, "Pick up 52 Cole Street......"
"I'm George, and I have intelligence analysis work today, and I'm going to work overtime...... No way, I can't leave. I'm sorry, but I don't have to leave dinner for me...... I love you. With that, Major George put down the phone in his hand.
Obviously, the awkward sentence at the end of the sentence "I love you" made the secretary's face a little gloomy. Major George sensed it and pressed the other man's soft hand propped up on the table.
The woman was quickly emotional, and her face hung with a charming flush. The two looked at each other affectionately, and they were about to be entangled together.
Finally, the thrill of the affair stirred up the two men, and Major George stood up and pressed the female secretary against the wall. They caressed each other, confused and uncontrollable.
What prevented them from breaking the last shred of sanity was that this telegraph room was an office space, and it was possible to come in at any time and be brought in at any time. So the two of them finally restrained their impulse, but their clothes were already messy.
"Wait for the evening! Come to my house! The woman's charming mouth was filled with a temptation that was hard to refuse.
In fact, George had no intention of resisting this temptation, he nodded and said, "I'll find a way, find a bottle of red wine!" ”
At this time, most of the supplies in Britain were already scarce, and it was not easy to get a bottle of red wine.
The liquor in the street shops has long been sold out, but the replenishment of goods has not yet arrived. Not only red wine, but also cigarettes and other supplies have become hard currency in demand.
Priceless is an adjective for many items. Canned sardines, butter and high quality flour are included.
Only brown and dry bread with bad taste were left in the bakery, and jam became a luxury. The U-boats of the Germans, in the hearts of the British, were something more hated than bombers.
So, as a major, George could only say that he could find a way to find a bottle of red wine to set off the atmosphere - this thing is not easy to find now, and there must be a way.
But George had a point, he knew the owner of a winery who could still get a bottle for a little more – a year ago, it was worth a penny or two at most.
While the two were flirting, the damn telegraph suddenly sounded. Major George was stunned for a moment, and then his whole body became nervous.
The last time the damn telegraph rang, Britain was in a bloody show, and this time it rang again, and God knows how many people would be unlucky.
"Hell!" Major George blurted out. He picked up the pen on the table and began to jot down the code that had been sent to him.
After writing down the code, George began to refer to the codebook and began to decipher its contents. The reason why a major was assigned to take charge of this was because he was responsible for the translation and was directly responsible to Prime Minister Winston Churchill.
"This is a conspiracy of the Germans! It must be a conspiracy of the enemy! He muttered as he translated the contents of the telegram.
But when he wrote the last words of the telegram, his whole body shuddered - it was shocking to him.
"A new crew member has joined the Shadow Force because his brother has been taken prisoner, and this person is Andrew? Cunningham! What was said in this telegram made George feel bad.
God forbid! He prayed inwardly for a moment, then began to check the contents of the message. After checking it and seeing that there were no mistakes, he tore off the message paper and stood up.
"Something is wrong." He glanced at his mistress and spoke. After saying this, ignoring the shocked eyes of the female secretary, he walked out of his office with the telegram paper.
Churchill was dealing with a mountain of reports on the industrial development of the Scottish region. Because of the lack of adequate infrastructure, the speed of relocation of factories to the north simply cannot be increased.
For a time, Britain's industrial production capacity fell to a low point, which made him, the prime minister, very anxious. Without the backing of strong production capacity, how can we defeat the powerful Germany?
While he was still thinking about these depressing things, Major George knocked on the door of the British Prime Minister.
Walking into the office, George handed the message to Prime Minister Winston Churchill: "Mr. Prime Minister, new information from a mysterious person!" ”
Hearing the new information about the shadows, Churchill happily put down his work, stood up, and looked at the contents above.
As a result, when he picked it up and looked at it, he also had some difficulty believing his eyes. Cunningham, who had just been honored a few days ago as a hero of the British Navy, actually joined the shadow troops of the Germans?
This news made Churchill not dare to believe, but he had to believe it! Because when the other party said that Cunningham was a German spy, he gave his own reason - Cunningham's younger brother became a prisoner of the Germans!
The news of Cunningham's captivity in Africa is no secret. It is impossible for the German intelligence services not to know about this matter, and it is not impossible to use this matter to plot against Cunningham!
The more Churchill thought about it, the more he felt that Cunningham was indeed not very safe. When I put on colored glasses to look at a person, even the person's past achievements became weird.
For example, if you flee the Mediterranean with the fleet, could it be that the Germans deliberately let go of the Mediterranean fleet? Or was it a strategic purpose of the Germans to leave the Mediterranean with the fleet?
Regardless of whether Churchill thinks about what he thinks is right or not, if he thinks so, this Li Le's counter-plot will be half successful!
As the German version of Jiang Gan's book theft, the fake Canaris, Jiang Gan, has successfully sent false information to Churchill, and now it depends on how Churchill will deal with this information.
Apparently, the British prime minister hesitated, hesitating to know whether he should arrest Cunningham for interrogation, or choose not to believe this strange information from Germany.
Compared with Turing, Cunningham's social status and importance are obviously higher. Dealing with Turing is nothing more than moving a so-called celebrity, and shaking the command foundation of the army, which are completely different things.
"Cunningham was an admiral...... Isn't it a bit too hasty to move a fleet commander at this time? "More than an hour later, the commander-in-chief of the Navy, Dudley? General Pound opened his mouth and admonished Churchill.
When he heard the news, he hurried to Churchill's office, hoping that Churchill would not trust the information transmitted from the German side too much.
Churchill recruited Dudley? Pound also hopes that through this supreme commander of the Navy, he will listen to the opinions of the Navy.
After all, it is not possible to deal with a very famous admiral who has just recently won a victory, and it is not possible to greet the top brass of the Navy in advance.
This is not a scholar like Turing, but a general...... Dudley? When Pound heard about Cunningham in his office, he thought Churchill must be crazy.
"Moreover, General Cunningham's capture is guaranteed by international law, and it is impossible for General Andrew to be blackmailed, which is simply nonsense!" Pound tried to keep his men, and he didn't want to go crazy with Churchill.
Even, in this office, Dudley? Pound had already started to think of something else, one to oust Churchill and replace him with another prime minister to end the war.
"Whatever you say, I have decided to temporarily remove General Cunningham from his commanding position. Let him return to his home country and report on his work, and I will arrange for him to go to the parliament and give a speech to encourage the people to keep fighting! Churchill saw the Navy's will to resist from Pound's performance.
At times like these, he was not willing to take the risk of really dealing with a general who had just become a hero. However, he still hopes that Cunningham can be transferred from the command post of the Mediterranean Fleet!
