Chapter 722-2: European Landing, Project Guardian
There is enough foreshadowing, enough to gain trust, and this time, Xiaolu once again gave a dose of fierce medicine:
First, the headquarters of the Fourth Army Group did not exist, and only more than 200 staff officers and their radio stations were sending false information. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Second, the Prosperity Team's confessions were designed and the members of the Panel did not lie, but the members themselves did not know that the information they knew was false.
Third, the itinerary you see of General Patton is fake.
Fourth, broadcasts about Northern Europe were meant to attract attention and distract the military. This is the Northern Perseverance Project.
The command of the Fourth Army Group is indeed fake, but without evidence of such a one-sentence intelligence as Xiaolu, will the Germans believe it? No way. In fact, the entire destruction of the spy network of the Germans in Britain is impossible to verify.
These hundreds of telegraph operators disguised the communication between the group army and the corps, divisions, regiments, and battalions, and carried out the communication in strict accordance with the normal amount of communication. The fake headquarters was built in Dover, with high-power radio stations and subordinate connections.
All telecommunications were closely monitored by the Germans. The Germans spied on, positioned, and believed that if the Allies landed, they must be at Calais, opposite Dover.
With regard to the second, it was the cunning and cruel actions of the British organization during the implementation of the Guardian program. In July 1943, in northern France, the British Special Operations Service, codenamed Prosperous Resistance, was busted by the German Gestapo as a result of Henri Degu's whistleblowing, and dozens of members of the Resistance, including its head, Francis Soulier, were arrested.
The Gestapo coerced the arrest of the Prosperity Group operator and continued to maintain contact with the British headquarters. The operator, who was controlled by the Germans, did not issue a security code according to the regulations and alerted the headquarters.
However, despite the warnings, the British headquarters continued to maintain contact, and even airdropped large quantities of weapons, explosives, communications equipment, activity funds, and even new agents at the request of Germany. As soon as these materials and personnel landed, they fell into the hands of the German Gestapo.
All British agents sent to the occupied territories carried poison that they used to commit suicide. However, the backbone of the Prosperous Resistance Group and the agents who later airdropped it carried non-toxic pills, and after they were captured, they had no way of surviving and hoping for death, and finally confessed their mission: to attack the German headquarters in Calais, the communication center, the shore artillery, and the power supply system, and cooperate with the Allied landing.
From the beginning of the whistleblower, all this is an illusion, it is all designed. The agents were told that the missions were real, and after the mutiny, they gave them to the Germans. This is very authentic, and the purpose is to deceive the Germans, because the agents themselves do not know that the so-called real information they confess is false.
That is, these people were simply victims of the British, and in order to deceive the Germans, the British used such cruel practices.
With regard to Patton in the third article, the Germans believed that Patton was the most belligerent of the American generals, and therefore the Germans were extremely concerned about his itinerary. Therefore, they devised Patton's false itinerary and false troop numbers. Patton has been hanging across Calais, inspecting the barracks today and meeting with celebrities tomorrow. Patton's itinerary could not be verified by the Germans through spies, and intercepting the telegram was the only way, and the telegrams that could be intercepted were all designed by the British.
Finally, in order to disperse the German army, Beavan organized the "Northern Perseverance" program in Northern Europe. In January 1944, Beavan visited the Soviet Union and joined forces with Soviet intelligence to create the illusion of attacking Norway and Sweden. The British established the command of Army Group 4, which did not actually exist, in Edinburgh, Scotland, and communicated radio links with similar false Soviet commands.
The British army was pretending to be a real singer, constantly replenishing the troops stationed in Scotland with equipment such as skis and snowboards in the cold areas, and conducting ski training, which looked like they were going to fight in Northern Europe.
In its broadcasts to Norway and Sweden, Britain's BBC radio station asked the people of the two countries to prepare for air defense and to stock up as much as possible on food, fuel, medicine, and other necessities. As a result of these moves, the Germans deployed 13 divisions, including 1 panzer, in Norway and Sweden to cope with the Allied offensive. These 13 divisions did not leave Norway and Sweden until the end of the war.
This deceptive plan was to convince Germany that Britain was going to attack German-occupied northern Europe first. Historically, the German army did put a huge amount of military power on the northern front and was deceived. And not many German troops were invested in the real landing direction.
This time, the trail gave the Germans a rough outline of the Guards plan, that is, the Guards plan to disperse the German forces and hide the actual landing site.
Koji knew that with this unofficial information, the Germans, especially Hitler, the paranoid, could hardly believe that the Coalition forces were going to land in Normandy. But there's still a chance.
Sure enough, two days after this information was issued, there was a request from the Hong Kong side to confirm the authenticity of the information.
Xiaolu immediately called back: Go to the United States, find the U.S. military parcel, and copy the documents in it. Investigate the company that made prop dummies, investigate the prop dummies ordered by the U.S. military, prop dummies that can light firecrackers, and can play recordings.
This is the intel that Xiaolu is really trying to provide. Britain and Northern Europe can't gather reliable intelligence, so go to the United States. Britain's deception operations are all in the UK, while the US has a large area and many loopholes, so it is easy to gather intelligence.
It's May 10 in the blink of an eye.
This time, the Germans demanded more detailed information, and they were willing to pay 10 million Swiss francs.
Koji understood that German spies in the United States had succeeded, and they began to believe their own intelligence. A series of scattered pieces of information allowed the German base camp to discover some real situations.
On this day, information came from Yan'an, saying that, according to reliable information, the military commander had sent an intelligence team to Shanghai to investigate the exchange of intelligence between the Japanese and the Germans in Hong Kong.
Xiao Lu directly thought of two points: first, he was successful in placing the location of the report near Shanghai, and some people discovered the intelligence activities in Asia, and believed that the source of the intelligence was Shanghai. Second, the situation in Hong Kong is not good, it may be exposed, and it may be surveillance.
For the first point, Xiaolu naturally thinks it's not bad. For the second point, Xiaolu asked Hong Kong to prepare for a change of location, asked Zeng Sheng to send someone to protect it, and asked the Germans to use their relationship with the Japanese to search the people in Chongqing to protect Xiao Liao. In addition, please ask the commander of the southwest division Lin to send someone to send a boat to prepare to pick people out.
Xiaolu sent another piece of information to the Hong Kong side: Marshal Montgomery, who went to southern Europe and North Africa, would drink.
This is the second time Xiaolu has sent this piece of information.
Field Marshal Montgomery was the second commander to command the Allied forces. By tracking this person, it is possible to judge the movements of the allied forces of the United States and Britain. The Germans collected his whereabouts through all channels. Of course, they know that the movements that can be collected are all designed by others.
Field Marshal Montgomery left England in order to deceive Germany into believing that the direction of the Allied attack was southern Europe. There was movement in both southern and northern Europe, only the English Channel was silent.
Again, this is a piece of intelligence that wins with details. The Germans, of course, knew that the real Marshal Montgomery did not drink.
