Chapter 301: Secret War (2)

German espionage in the Americas was a complete mess before the Eye of Odin intervened. A group of unqualified laymen are trained in rough espionage and sent to a foreign land far across the ocean to gather intelligence from a group of unreliable expatriates and money-bribed American citizens, in the same way and means as a spy war script written by a second-rate screenwriter.

However, Hoover's FBI failed to catch a few of these shoddy and shoddy spies, which shows that the level of the domestic anti-espionage system in the United States at that time was not much worse. Much of Hoover's energy at this time was focused on dealing with the so-called "subversive forces" in the country, in addition to a large number of labor groups and underground political parties organized by economic depression and unemployment, as well as various organized crime gangs that had become a climate, such as the Sicilian one.

Especially after the outbreak of the war, a large number of war immigrants who fled from Europe empty-handed, more plainly increased the work of the FBI. In addition, at this time, the idea of isolationism in the United States was deeply rooted, and most people believed that war was still far away from the United States, and even within the FBI, people with similar ideas accounted for the vast majority.

What's more, given the current loose and crumbling appearance of the United States, where it is necessary to send spies to spy on it, if you want to know the intelligence of the three US armed forces, you only need to spend five cents to buy a newspaper, and that group of pervasive reporters and a large number of big-mouthed generals have long since exposed the details of the American military to outsiders.

To tell the truth, the German spies did not think of spying on any military intelligence, they were concerned about the information of the American convoy of supplies to Europe, from the date of departure of each convoy to the materials shipped on the ship, as long as the information related to the war was collected.

After the Eye of Odin took over the spy network, the first step was to carry out a purge of the original American intelligence agency. You read that right, it was indeed a purge, the Eye of Odin showed no mercy to the betrayers, and a group of double agents lurking in the spy network were bloodily executed, and their bodies were loaded into gasoline drums filled with cement and sunk off the coast of New York.

The Germans acted so aggressively and decisively that it was only when the FBI noticed the anomaly that they realized that the connections embedded in the German intelligence network and the German spies that had been exposed had all disappeared in just a few days. The German intelligence network managed to dive underwater again, jumping out of the view of the FBI.

Verbet was the commander-in-chief of the purge at the time, and the temporary head of the current German intelligence network in the United States, and he would be responsible for directing the normal operation of the Eye of Odin's North American Bureau until a replacement commander was dispatched at home.

A month and a half earlier, Verbet had personally executed the notorious renegade William. George. Deberski, a German-born Polish-German who immigrated to the United States after World War I, moved to the northern states for more than a decade, changed many jobs, but has been unknown and has not improved in his career.

In 1939, under the pseudonym Siebald, Deberski returned to Germany to visit relatives, and at that time he was favored by the spy bureau of Canaris, at that time this Mr. Siebold gladly accepted the recruitment of the German spy bureau, and pretended to love Germany very much, and soon won the love and trust of the head of the German spy bureau. After seven weeks of improvised espionage training in Germany, Siebold was hastily sent back to the United States, where the Bureau ordered him to set up an intelligence station in Manhattan, New York, which was not only to collect intelligence on its own, but also to serve as a point of contact for other spies in the network to submit information, and to send the collected information to Germany by radio.

It is hard to imagine that the German spy service could so easily trust a German expatriate who had lived abroad for more than twenty years and put this most important intelligence node in the hands of Debersky.

As a result, Mr. Siebald, who was deeply trusted and expected by the spy agency, went to Cologne once before returning to the United States, and instead of visiting the magnificent cathedral, he sneaked into the American consulate and explained everything to the American side, becoming a double agent hired by the government.

Subsequently, he cooperated with the FBI, while transmitting some real information of low value to Germany, deepening the trust and respect of the German intelligence department, improving his status in the spy network, and defrauding the German side of secrets.

Historically, when he was completely exposed in June 41, the FBI arrested more than 30 German spies at one time, and for a time the German spy network on the East Coast of the United States was almost completely destroyed.

Don't trust any German expatriates lightly, this was Welbay's advice to his onlookers as he tightened the tightrope stranglehold around Debersky's neck. Verbet told his subordinates that these people had lived abroad for a long time, and many of their families had even been passed down for a hundred years, and although they had Germanic blood, they were not the only ones loyal to their homeland, and forcing them to betray either side could lead to unforeseen consequences.

In contrast, Odin's Eye is much more stable than the Espionage Bureau, and the earliest buried dark line can be traced back to fifteen years ago, when these people were mixed in the post-war immigration group and entered the United States under various false identities, with occupations in all walks of life in the country, including many leaders in their respective fields. These people are bound by strict organizational discipline, and those who merit are rewarded handsomely, and anyone who attempts to betray is purged at the first time, because the police system and the FBI have their own people in the Eye of Odin.

This is also one of the reasons why Debersky was finally exposed, of course, mainly because of the Führer's memory, and the personnel lurking inside the BFI investigated a little, and then confirmed the identity of this despicable renegade, which also became a proof of the miracle of His Excellency the Führer in the North American Bureau of Odin's Eye.

The spy bureau's exposed spies were all sent across the country through the underground channels mastered by Odin's eyes, and in order to evacuate several important agents in New York Harbor in time, Odin's eyes even did not hesitate to mobilize the German Navy's ocean-going submarines. At the risk of being spotted by the U.S. Coast Guard, the large U-boat surfaced off New York Harbor to receive the loyal but unlucky spies from a fishing trawler, which sank a dozen cement-filled drums as a memento of the retreat.

"We don't have to deal with Hoover, there are a lot of places where we can work with them, like fighting the Sicilians." Welbay was sitting in a box at a luxury restaurant on Broadway, swinging a knife to cut a top-quality steak that at the time was worth the salary of an average American worker in Brooklyn.

"Hoover has been in a bad mood during this time, and he has already been scolded by three bureau chiefs this week." Sitting across from him was a man in his forties, dressed in a hot crisp shirt with a silver-plated 1911 in his holster.

"Still for what happened last time?"

"What else could it be, he felt that his dignity had been challenged, but he couldn't find anyone to be angry with."

"It's okay, he'll be too busy to think about it after a while."

"Are you going to start? Something needs to be done on my side. The man put down his knife and fork and picked up a glass with a gold rimmed edge, filled with Bordeaux wine.

"Keep on standby, I won't need you yet. By the way, this is a gift for Marilyn, I wish her a happy birthday for me. Verbay put down his knife, took a paper bag from the pocket of his suit hanging from the back of a nearby chair, and placed it on the table.

"She'll love it, and there's Judy on the card that comes with it. Garland's autograph. The other party opened the paper bag and found a beautiful set of tin dolls, including a lion, a scarecrow, a tin man, and a little girl holding a puppy.

"The little guy is going crazy, she loves [The Wizard of Oz] to death, thank you." The man carefully put the doll back into the paper bag and folded it again.
