(The third watch is over, let's have a good time~)

The assassination in East Germany shocked the Soviet leadership, especially after Stasi's leader Weisel was attacked and killed by a group of so-called "anti-revolutionary-life militants", the leader Stasili was indispensable, and the new leader Erich Melke quickly took Weisel's place, and as soon as he came to power, he carried out a political purge following Stalin's example, arresting possible anti-revolutionaries within Stasi, and many innocent people were imprisoned, of course, Albert's intelligence service personnel had already completed their mission and evacuated from East Germany.

Of course, the actions of the Soviet Union were also expected by Britain and the United States, and Moscow first condemned the United States' airdrop of supplies to Berlin as an attempt to undermine Germany's sovereignty and escalate the situation, and actively dispatched troops to make a strategic defensive posture. The Americans even accused the Soviet Union's blockade of violating humanitarianism, and Americans with a conscience will absolutely not sit idly by; in short, the war of words between the foreign ministries of the two countries is a bitter war between you and me.

Angry Stalin suggested that the proletariats of the whole world unite to overthrow the tyranny of Western imperialism and take a tough stance on the Berlin question, but Britain and the United States refused to accept this and continued to warn the Soviet Union that if any American plane dropping supplies was destroyed by artillery fire over Berlin, then the American anti-aircraft artillery deployed in West Germany would be destroyed by any Soviet military aircraft that appeared over Berlin.

"It is clear that the United States and the Soviet Union have reached a point of tension over Berlin, and it will be up to them to see who will not hold on first." Instead of studying his history in his study, Albert today accompanied King Leopold III for a walk in the garden. After his father's deterioration in health after the loss of his son, Albert spent almost a year in the palace with Leopold III.

Perhaps it was the concern of the last child that allowed Leopold III to slowly come out of the shadow of grief, and his face was noticeably much better than before in the past six months. Leopold III took Albert by the hand and tested him with a question: "My child, who do you think will compromise first?" ”

"Father, didn't you say that good topics don't involve politics? Why did you go back on your word again? Albert complained that he was now careful to avoid the sensitive minefield of politics before Leopold III.

Leopold III, who was on crutches, kindly touched Albert's head and said with a smile, "Then who brought up these questions first?" It seems to be you, my child. ”

"Okay, okay, I surrender, it's true that I brought it up first." Albert reluctantly picked up his father's topic, "In my opinion, it may be that the Soviets were the first to take a step back and put forward the idea of a peaceful solution." ”

"Oh?" Leopold III paused and asked with interest, "How can you be so sure?" The Soviets have always been tough, and if the United States pushes too quickly, war will really break out. ”

"From the perspective of pure war, so far, the Soviets can indeed fight a real war with the United States, but fighting a war is an extremely consuming thing of national strength, the Soviets are arrogant, but they are not stupid, if they really want to fight, it will be a limited war, well, I estimate it will be a wonderful proxy war." Albert spoke to his father about his opinion.

"Proxy wars?" Leopold III was intrigued by this fresh term, "that is, both the United States and the USSR would have their own regime in Germany and then let them go to war, right?" ”

"Yes, it's a betting bet, it's hard to say who wins and who loses, but I hope the Americans can win the war." Albert replied briskly.

"That's natural, our Ardennes region borders Germany, and if the Americans fail, we won't have any buffer zone with the communist forces." Leopold III was concerned about this issue.

"Don't worry, father, if they want to make a Belgian revolution, they are still far away." Albert confidently said that in fact, in Belgium, some communists who want to seize power by force are within the scope of their own intelligence organization, and Belgium is not like East Germany, which spies on others to the sick, Belgium has always maintained a situation of loose supervision on the outside and tight on the inside. In the event of some special circumstances, a wide range of informants will immediately convey the information to the special handling department.

In other words, as long as you don't die, you won't die.

While Albert and Leopold III were talking and laughing, an untimely servant suddenly burst in and said to Albert, "Your Highness, I have your phone. ”

"Okay, I'll be there later." Albert and Leopold III took their leave, and the king waved his hand and signaled Albert to attend to himself first, and he wanted to sit in the garden.

"Hello, may I ask who you are?" Albert asked, picking up the microphone.

"Your Highness Albert, I'm the Director of Intelligence Follett, and there's something I have to report to you." The voice on the other end of the phone looked anxious.

"What's the matter?" Albert asked nonchalantly.

"Just three hours ago, one of the transport planes of the Americans was intercepted and shot down in the air." Director Follett broke the big news, and he added, "It was shot down by a MiG-3 fighter plane of the Soviets, when the American transport plane accidentally crossed the border and dropped supplies into East Berlin, but the Soviet authorities refused to admit that they did it, and I hope this news will help you." ”

"Is the source reliable?" Albert suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked pretending to be calm. He didn't expect that he had just chatted with his father about the movement of the Soviets, and he didn't expect the plot to develop according to his script.

"Yes, it's absolutely reliable, that's why I'll report it to you as soon as possible." Director Follett said. In fact, he was very surprised when he heard the news for the first time, and after confirming the source of the information, he immediately reported it to Albert.

"Very well, thank you, Director Follett, you can get busy first." Albert hung up the phone and walked briskly back to his room, where he had a large map of Europe on his wall, filled with all of Albert's deductions, including the movements of each country and the possible actions in the Berlin crisis.

He now removed all the dense calculation sketches on the wall and replaced them with a new drawing full of Chinese characters. This is the last possibility he calculated, proxy war.

"So far, the first Berlin crisis is out of my control, and in fact I can no longer infer from history what the Soviets or the Americans will do next. What needs to be done from now on is to get in the way of this, to deplete the economies of the Americans and the Soviets, so that they will realize a little later that this is a senseless war. Albert muttered to himself. A new question arose before him, how long this limited war would last.

"It seems that this proxy war I predicted might be much more exciting than I imagined." Albert bit his pen and thought.
