It was puzzling that it was the eve of the landing, and the British press censorship was so strict that it was impossible for such an omission to make a speech that would affect the unity of the allies. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The only explanation is that this was an elaborate hoax, just to reinforce the impression of Patton's presence in the southeast of England, so that the Germans thought that Patton, as commander of the landing force, would appear frequently in the southeast of England, which naturally meant that the landing would be in Calais.

The real landing force commander Montgomery devoted himself to planning and studying the battle plan at the headquarters in Portsmouth, and Britain and the United States also selected Lieutenant James, who looked like Montgomery, to live beside Montgomery for several months, to learn in detail about Montgomery's likes and dislikes, habits, and other details of life in all aspects of clothing, food, housing, and transportation, and then disguised himself as Montgomery to visit Gibraltar and Cairo, creating the false impression that Montgomery was not in Britain.

At this time, Montgomery was not in England, so he would not have been the commander of the landing, and the "Mercury Plan" made the German high command understand that in the southeast of England, the Allies had gathered about 40 divisions to form the First Army Group under the command of Patton, and the main direction of attack for the landing would inevitably be Calais.

"Project Glimmer": electronic jamming and electronic deception carried out by the air forces of the allies. In accordance with the special instructions of the Supreme Command, the large radio interception and decipherment base set up by the German troops in The Hague, the Netherlands, was first violently bombed, completely destroying it and eliminating the threat to Allied radio communications.

Secondly, in the large-scale air raids on the German radar stations, the nine German radar stations north of the Seine were deliberately not bombed, so that the Germans could use these radar stations to detect the false fleet sent by the Allies before the landing, which was headed for Calais three hours before the landing.

It consisted of 18 dinghies, each towing a raft with a 29-foot-diameter balloon mounted with a radar transmitter equivalent to that of a Vendon-class landing ship, and dozens of planes flying over the fleet throwing tin chaff.

These measures were reflected on the screens of the German radar stations as a large landing flotilla heading for Calais under the cover of a large number of aircraft. In order to further confuse the German army, the Air Force made a special provision in its combat operations before the campaign: Whenever one reconnaissance plane is sent to Normandy or one ton of bombs is dropped, two reconnaissance planes or two tons of bombs must be sent to Calais.

The use of double agents is also an important part of Project Guardian. As a result of the excellent work of the British counterintelligence services, a number of German spy organizations in Britain were dismantled shortly after the start of the war, and a number of German spies in Britain were eliminated by quarantined vetting of German expatriates.

Although the German intelligence agencies continued to send agents to infiltrate and infiltrate Britain, the British counterintelligence agency was highly efficient, and the British currency and weights and measures were completely different from those on the European continent, making it easy for spies entering Britain to be detected, so Germany has not been able to carry out intelligence work in Britain.

The British set up a special "Double Cross Committee" to turn arrested German spies into double agents in British service. After a long period of patient and meticulous training, he finally had four double agents who were trusted by German intelligence: "Garbo", "Jumbo", "Tricycle" and "Brewster".

Among them, the most trusted and influential in Germany is "Jiabao", "Jiabao" is a Spaniard, and his real name is Juan? Pujol? Garcia, who twice asked to join the British intelligence service, was denied.

In January 1941, he defected to the German intelligence agencies and was ordered to infiltrate Britain through Portugal, but after he arrived in Portugal, he lied that he had entered Britain, and according to some newspapers and magazines published in Britain, he fabricated some information with his talent for fabricating information, and most of it was correct, so he was deeply respected and trusted by Germany.

It was not until February 1941 that Britain discovered that the Luftwaffe Navy and Air Force had launched a large-scale interception of an allied convoy bound for Malta, but there was no such fleet.

With the assistance of the "Double Cross Committee," a steady stream of carefully planned true and false information was sent to Germany, thus establishing the status of an ace agent in the German intelligence organs, and receiving the task of identifying the First Army Group [that is, the fictitious troops of the "Mercury Plan"), and taking the opportunity to report the strength of the First Army Group and other information in a grand manner.

"Treasure" is a French woman of Russian descent, Lily? It was she who gave a detailed report on the situation of the First Army Group and won the trust of the German intelligence services, and the German intelligence agencies also specifically asked her to go to Spain and provide her with a radio station for direct contact, which is extremely rare among the German intelligence services, and the degree to which she was valued can be seen.

"Brutus" is a former Polish Air Force officer, in the summer of 1940 in France organized underground resistance, arrested in November 1940, the German spy agency threatened him with the lives of the remaining 64 members of his group to serve Germany, came to Britain through Spain, and then surrendered to the British intelligence service, and then with the cooperation of the British intelligence agency, began to send reports to Germany outside London.

From January to August 1941, a total of 123 pieces of information were sent to Germany, almost all of which were confirmed by German intelligence to be accurate and deeply believed by the German army.

The British also organized an unusually cunning, even cruel and despicable operation in the "Guardian Project". In July 1941, the resistance group codenamed "Boom" in northern France was subordinate to the British Special Operations Service. Derigou's whistleblowing was uncovered by the German Gestapo, including the head Francis? Dozens of members of the resistance, including Suthir, were arrested.

The telegraph operator of the "Boom" cell, who was coerced by the Gestapo, continued to maintain contact with the British headquarters, because the telegraph operator's fingering was like a person's handwriting, which was difficult to counterfeit. The operator took the opportunity to report to the headquarters in accordance with the pre-stipulated non-issuance of a security code, and the so-called security code is to deliberately misspell or repeat a certain word in a certain line specified in the regulations, and if the word is not misspelled or repeated in the agreed place, it means that the radio station has been controlled by Germany.

However, despite warnings, Headquarters continued to maintain contact and airdropped large quantities of weapons, explosives, communications equipment, activity funds and even new agents at German request. As soon as these materials and personnel landed, they fell into the hands of the German Gestapo.

It is well known that the torture of the Gestapo was intolerable to ordinary people, and all British agents sent to the occupied territories carried highly poisoned drugs in order to commit suicide when they were arrested or when torture could not be endured.

The Pope of Rome in the Vatican also issued an amnesty specifically for Christians who could not stand the torture of the Gestapo and committed suicide, pardoning their sins of suicide. (To be continued.) )
