"Just do it!" Diglio spoke after Handmark, with a kind of hard determination in his helplessness. As a promising young imperial officer, how could he tolerate being put on the fate of being stranded in the United States?

"Let's do it!" Brewer couldn't wait to respond.

Of the four, only the shorter Wither remained, and he possessed a unique language skill in the entire intelligence team, French. Therefore, the identity arranged for him to be an arms dealer from France, although it is impossible for the French political axe to issue a real passport to such a guy, but the German army has occupied France for many years, and the SS intelligence department has reached the point of making French passports to the point of being fake.

"Now that it's come to this point, what else can I say?" Wither, still looking at Lynn in annoyance, "Do you really think it makes sense?" ”

Lynn also asked himself this question many times along the way, thinking that on the Eastern Front, he was just bent on survival, and later entered the "Vampire" commando, and gradually had the idea of using the German army's combat resources to seek a career after the war, and accidentally joined the "Aryan Ark Project". After many years of ups and downs, I chose to withdraw when I encountered difficulties, and when I sat on the chair and looked back on my life at sunset, I must regret that I missed the fork in the road of history!

In response to Wither's identity and surname, Lynn accurately retorted, "If we stay at the base doing nothing, do you think we'll be fine?" Science and technology are changing with each passing day, and when the United States comes up with a superweapon, we will have no room for revival and rise strategically. Going further, with only 10,000 or 20,000 people developing technology in a cave with limited conditions, how can the speed and efficiency be comparable to that of an opponent backed by international strength. Look outside the window at this university, one of the best universities in the United States, where there are thousands of high-level talents and scientific elites, as well as ample research funding and high-tech laboratories, how can it compare? Take out a little strategic vision, and in the past few years, we can still rely on the technology in the heyday to maintain the balance of power, and the gap will only get bigger and bigger, and if you want to do big things, you must take advantage of it now! ”

Of course, these words are analyzed in terms of the trajectory of historical development, and they are very convincing in terms of reason and reason, but Lynn soon discovers that not only Wither, but the other three also look at him with strange eyes. After calming down and thinking about it, Lynn reacted immediately: these words clearly criticized the current tactics of the Empire's top brass, and even if they were right, they were not in line with his status as a little lieutenant.

In desperation, Lynn placed the bag containing 24 diamonds in front of everyone and made a last-ditch move.

"This was given to me by General Bach before he left, and it is clear that he was also wary of Bertreme. Yesterday I went to a jeweler to get an appraisal, and one piece was worth about $500, which adds up to just over $10,000, which doesn't seem to make much of a difference. But I thought about it all night last night, since your team is in charge of the arms and firearms trade, it should come in handy when dealing with arms dealers. Sir Handmark, your military capabilities are comprehensive; Sir Diglio, you are particularly proficient in armaments; Hotham, you're a shooting genius. Each of you has valuable talents, but Brewer, who is lackluster in military affairs, has an extremely important advantage, and that is business experience. I wasn't in a position to make such an arrangement, but at this point, if we didn't work together, there was really no hope of success! ”

With that, Lynn pushed the small bag containing the diamond in front of Brewer: "The operation needs to raise funds, reliable information channels, weapons and ammunition reserves, do what you can, I have enough confidence in you." ”

Receiving such a heavy trust, Brewer smiled slightly wryly, and while putting the bag in his pocket, he said: "Sir, the most difficult thing in doing business is to start from scratch, and one day you will be the most proud of your success." ”

Handing over the diamonds, Lynn was suddenly relieved, and said goodbye to his companions for the second time, and he got up and left first, taking Tanze and Titchmel to the train station by car.

From Massachusetts on the east coast of the United States to California on the west coast, this distance is actually more than 3,800 kilometers in a straight line across the United States, and the distance of railroad tracks is more than 4,500 kilometers. In the nearly 100 years since, advances in power technology have also led to a significant increase in train speed, with the time it takes to travel across the United States by train nearly half from the initial week, and of course, the time it takes to get from New York to San Francisco is even shorter if you are willing to pay a little more for a regular American Airlines flight. Lynn's choice of railroad was not the first factor, but because he was worried about the stricter identity checks that would require flying, not to mention the fact that he needed to make the most of the few days he spent on the train before his college exams.

It was July 1 when the group of three arrived at the famous University of California, and in the eyes of others, this seemed to be just an ordinary summer day, but Lynn knew that it was only half a month before the Potsdam Conference in history, and presumably those imperial commandos who were selected for the final 50 people had already embarked on a dangerous journey, and I didn't know if Noah was on the list. Putting aside these momentary and inappropriate thoughts, he walked into the campus with a different feeling, feeling the atmosphere of déjà vu, but no longer reliving the curiosity and apprehension of entering the school. In order to find out about Oppenheimer, he chose the most direct and technically difficult route: in the name of exchange scholars, he found the remaining physicists, asked them questions that they could not answer, and then logically asked the whereabouts of those who could answer the questions.

Theoretical research is different from historical military, Lynn received a quality education more than 60 years later, but along the way through the bookstore to buy physics books and paper compilations, he realized that the basic knowledge of physics he mastered is no longer a profound problem in this era, and the first physics faculty member he found at the University of California was an old man who was about to retire.

As a non-physics undergraduate graduate, it is unthinkable to write the formula for a nuclear fusion reaction without Du Niang and without prior preparation, and the books and materials found in the bookstore gave Lynn room to play. Einstein's mass-energy equation, the experimental physics papers jointly published by the German physicist Hahn and the female physicist Metternich, the theoretical papers of the Italian "quantum engineer" Femi, and even some papers of Heisenberg, the winner of the 1932 Nobel Prize in Physics, have long been revealed in the profound materials that ordinary people see. All Lynn did was use his knowledge to piece together the relevant formulas and models and put them in front of real physics experts, which is probably a strange thing in the mud, but the real physics experts have pulled them to work on the Manhattan Project!

The old man, who had a few hairs neatly combed, stared at the paper manuscript that Lynn took out for a long time, and then touched his chin and said, "My research direction is applied mechanics, your problem ...... I know who can answer that. ”

This was exactly the answer that Lynn was waiting for, and he asked in feigned surprise, "Who?" ”

"But even if I tell you, you won't see it now." The old man sold Guan Zi and said, but it's a pity that he has something in the gourd, and Lynn knows it clearly.

Lynn immediately played the long-brewing emotional card: "These problems have been bothering me for a long time, in fact...... It also bothered several of the most senior scholars at the Universidad Nacional de La Plata, who had entrusted me with the task of bringing back the answers, and one of them was in very bad health. ”

"It's not that I won't help you!" The old man said helplessly, "These people have been recruited by the secret project of the political axe, and I don't know where they are. ”

Lynn clasped her hands together and said, "As soon as we met, I thought you were a benevolent angel!" You see, I've come all the way from Argentina to get here, so I'm just waiting here? In any case, I must give it a try, even for the sake of my most respected mentor, Dr. Harguhi......"

The old man hesitated for a moment, and when he saw that Lynn's face was full of sincerity, he reluctantly whispered, "You may be able to try your luck in New Mexico and find a man named Robert. Oppenheimer's Ph.D. ”

"New Mexico?"

Lynn, of course, knew that the first atomic bomb had been detonated in the desert of New Mexico, but according to her memory and understanding, shouldn't the lab and the main scientists be in Oak Ridge in eastern Tennessee?

"Not long ago, there was a letter from New Mexico, and although there was no specific address on the envelope, the letter mentioned that the weather was dry and life was boring, but everyone was still motivated." After saying this, the old man didn't want to say anything more, but just shook his head vigorously.

After turning around, he didn't expect that the clue was still in the desert of New Mexico, Lynn was both puzzled and worried, could it be that Oak Ridge was like the "1st Army Group" before the Allies launched the Normandy Campaign, and it was simply used as a cover to cover people's eyes, so wouldn't it be in vain for him to let Wohlrich and Feck go to the local lord in that area?

In the era of carrying a mobile phone, Lynn can still send a text message to his accomplice: New Mexico has a lot of room for land appreciation, come quickly. However, if the intelligence network is not sound at all, if you want to convey the news, you can either send a coded telegram to Boston, and then the Bertreme Operations Liaison Office will transfer it to the land buying team that has already left for Tennessee, or simply let Tanze or Titchmel go directly, but no matter which option you choose, it will take time to go and increase the risk of attracting attention. After thinking about it, Lynn decided to take a trip to New Mexico to find out first.
