Chapter 46: Each other's secrets
When she was thinking, Lynn deliberately avoided Andri's eyes, so as not to see through her hesitation as the head of the intelligence department, whose background and experience were much more complex than her own. Although what Andriy just said was very tempting, Lynn was no longer the young man who pursued a peaceful life in peacetime, he had seen the cruelty of war, the courage and friendship, and the conservatism and depravity of the dignitaries and dignitaries in this remote place, and he really did not dare to easily entrust his trust to anyone, even Laurentz, whom he once admired and admired immensely. Bach.
In order to let the other party prove his sincerity, Lynn thought for a long time, and finally spoke: "If you don't mind...... There are a few questions that have kept me bothered during this time! ”
The little man on the other side made a request at this time, and Andri was a little surprised, but he still nodded generously.
"The first is about the Führer, and it is clear to all of us that the Führer is the soul of the empire, the spiritual pillar of the army, and I personally hope to be able to continue the fight under the Führer, but if the situation is not what we know...... Personally, I'm still going to fight, but I'm going to make a very crucial adjustment in terms of mentality and strategy. So ......"
Asking this question that was hardly a problem, Lynn didn't expect Colonel Andriy to reveal the truth to herself, but looked at his attitude in answering the question.
The young colonel, who sat across from Lynn, frowned in confusion, and although he had about a third of the cigar left, he had smoked enough, so he extinguished it in the ashtray and carefully removed the embers from the cigarette end with a cigar cutter.
"Truth be told, Second Lieutenant Gargo, the answer to this question, while tempting, is one you shouldn't ask, and it's better not to know. In any case, the Führer's flag is guiding us forward. ”
"Okay." Lynn nodded, which was indeed a very rational answer, so he continued, "We should have enough money to implement our strategy, right?" ”
"More than you can imagine!" Andriy replied without hesitation, "If the plan to go to the United States is approved, there is no need to worry about the funding." ”
All right! It was as if Lynn had seen the legendary Imperial treasures glitter in the darkness, and according to historical records, Hitler's Germany looted tens of billions of dollars worth of wealth from other European countries during the war, most of which disappeared after the war ended. You know, the Manhattan Project cost only $6 billion, and the scale of this wealth can be imagined.
The last question, which is not directly related to the topic of this conversation, is what Lynn hesitated the most. He knew that the answer was in Andri's mouth, but once he said it, it would be tantamount to handing over a considerable amount of "collateral" to the other party, even though she did not belong to him now.
"Oh! A gift from the Führer to Haida! ”
Listening to Lynn's third question, Andriy seemed rather calm, but the more it did, the more he realized that the question was unusual.
"The former leader of the SS, Lord Himmler, was a man of great interest in the theory of the purification of the human race, and in order to prove this, he not only ordered a large number of historical documents to be consulted, even to the extent of entering private estates or religious sites that should be protected, but also sent expeditions around the world, bringing back many interesting objects, materials and people. It was initially a flattering officer who brought back from Scandinavia a perfect Finnish woman, a 16-year-old virgin. This inspired His Excellency the Leader, who ordered the collection of young female surnames that would prove the theory of the perfect race, and finally gathered 12 of them and presented them as gifts to the Führer. As we all know, the Führer loved only one woman in his life, so we later called them 'the Führer's porcelain dolls' in private, but very few of the 12 of them were lucky enough to have met. In 1944, the Finnish woman was finally sent back to Finland as a symbol of pure friendship, which eventually led to a close agreement between us and Finland; And the Norwegian woman, a blonde and plump 17-year-old beauty, is married to our Governor of Oslo, a pure Norwegian nobleman; And in the spring of this year, the Swedish woman also became a political gift, given to the most honorable person in Sweden...... By the time the Aryan Ark Project was implemented, there were still 7 porcelain dolls left in the Führer, including the gift you mentioned for Haida. Forget it, there should be 6 left now, all of them are stunning! ”
Hearing this fanciful explanation, Lynn asked too bluntly, "But does such a young foreign girl mean anything to Haida?" ”
Andriy had obviously seen through Lynn's mind from the beginning, and he smiled slightly: "I really can't answer this question, only the Führer and His Excellency the Minister know the answer. ”
Lynn leaned back in her chair a little dejected, what if she knew all of this now?
Andri, with a victorious smile, said, "All right, Second Lieutenant Gargo, I have tried to satisfy all your questions, and now, should you tell me everything you know as promised?" ”
Lynn pondered for a moment: "Although it is only some hearsay, based on my personal analysis, I guess that they should be very credible. First of all, before and after the outbreak of the war, many Jewish scientists fled to the United States, and their research in physics was not inferior to those who remained in Germany and worked for us. Secondly, the Americans did not show a significant interest in uranium ore before the outbreak of war, but this has since changed, especially in recent times, and I think they will certainly do their best to loot the uranium ore and related scientific research equipment that remains in Germany itself. Finally, as to the timing, I warned General Bach that if we do not take active action, the Americans are likely to acquire the technology of superweapons in the near future, and that is because I am too eager for him to pay attention to them, and in fact, I can only judge the urgency of the American political axe for this weapon, and once their land forces launch a landing operation against the Ben, the casualty figures will be very terrible. Colonel Andriy played with a cigar cutter in his hand, and pondered Lynn's long words for a long time, until Lynn had drained the whole cup of coffee over the cigar, and he finally looked satisfied but worried.
"Second Lieutenant Gargo, please allow me to affectionately call you 'Lynn', it seems that I have indeed found the right person to look for you today. I am afraid that there will not be a third person in the Strategic Staff, or even in the entire base, who will have the same idea as us, and what a thing to be proud of and disappointed to do. When I took over the 7th SS Division, I saw only incomplete information and heard bad news about foreign intelligence networks, intelligence personnel purged by the enemy, and although we still have secret military bases and relatively reliable political support in South America, we are ...... in the United States We're basically going to start all over again, but time is running out......"
The rigid and strict Germans were good at fighting wars, and it seemed that they naturally lacked some acumen and flexibility in intelligence, and Lynn thought for a moment: "How many intelligence officers are you going to send to the United States?" ”
"At the moment I have five intelligence officers who have worked abroad, all of whom are fluent in English, and I can also draw some personnel from South America. Oh, by the way, Lynn, I heard you speak English very well, too? ”
As soon as he heard Andri say this, Lynn's heart trembled, he was not afraid of fighting tough battles, and he was barely competent as a staff officer, but he could engage in intelligence...... I didn't even think about it, not to mention that I haven't watched any of the spy war dramas of "Latent" and "The Wind" (or maybe it's also a good thing?). Hurriedly expressed his worries, but saw Andriy sweep away the gloomy expression just now and laughed, then he picked up the coffee cup, took a sip of the coffee that was already slightly cold, and said with a restrained smile: "With the current situation, if we gather the most elite intelligence officers from all over Europe and transfer them to North America, I am afraid that the time will already be given in the past month or two." In fact, it is not as difficult as imagined to go to the United States to spy on intelligence, for the Americans, their war in Europe is over, there is no longer a threat of German fascism, only those Asian faces are suspicious. ”
The phrase "German fascist" came out of the mouth of a man who had worked for Heydrich and served as the head of the fourth division of the Gestapo, and it finally made Lynn feel the wisdom of knowing himself and his enemy, but he still did not intend to join the gang so easily, but once again played Tai Chi: "I need a little time to think carefully about what you mentioned." Of course, I can assure you that if this plan is approved, I will personally do my best to help you. ”
Andri's reaction was very calm, and he said slowly: "Comrades like us, who hit it off, should be said to help each other - you do everything you can to help me, I do everything I can to help you, how good is that!" ”
Lynn understood his hint and felt that he had given him a handle, but it was not necessarily a bad thing, at least it would dispel his vigilance to a large extent, and make him feel that everything was under his control.
"I will keep your words in mind, and I feel very fortunate to have such a senior as you to take care of me!" After saying this polite remark that even gave him goosebumps, Lynn was ready to flash: "If there is nothing else important, I think I should go back to work!" ”
"Good!" Andriy was the first to stand up and stretched out his right hand, "I hope we can work together as close as friends!" ”
One is a senior officer in a key department, and a young junior who has just entered the ranks of officers, and the gesture of a friend can certainly shorten the distance, but a simple-minded young man may have been carried away with joy. Before calmly leaving, the overall duty of the Wizard Intelligence Service was not to eliminate the threat on the American side, and Lynn said in a humble tone of suggestion to his superiors: "Although American superweapons are a great threat to us, sir, I have been thinking that the conventional forces of the Soviet Union are equally formidable forces. Without the use of special weapons, their armored units were able to rush to the Bay of Biscay without moving forward, perhaps...... We can put this to good use and pave the way for the future of the Empire! ”
