Berlin, Walleston Center.

What looks like a normal house is the spy training center of the German intelligence agencies. Here, the Germans, who have always been rigorous, continue to send a steady stream of newly trained spies to any corner of the world, just like producing on an assembly line.

The Germans did not see spies as normal people, just a "product".

Once such a "product" appears, the power caused will be very amazing. In many cases, a good spy can do as much of a difference as an elite Waffen-SS panzer division.

Now, a new batch of trainees has appeared at the Walleston Center

In the morning, Feng. Colonel Grenin handed the new cadet Chapman a pistol, it was a brand new American Cettle revolver, the bullet was loaded, Chapman had never touched a gun before before entering the Walleston Center, and when he asked himself why he would need such a weapon, von Browning. Grenin just said blandly: "When you get stuck, you can shoot."

Leo, a firearms instructor, teaches him how to aim and shoot, and they target something in the open space in the center of Walleston. Soon, Chapman was able to shoot a coin fifty feet away.

The revolver fully embodies the von . Grenin trusted Chapman, the new recruit, and allowed Chapman to move to a separate cabin so he could practice mixing explosives at any time and burning them in the lab. Homemade bombs are getting bigger and more sophisticated. He practiced making underwater detonators. The detonators are then thrown into a pond where the ducks are kept. There were a lot of tree stumps in the courtyard of the mansion, and Chapman tried to blow them up. Once, he stuffed too much explosives in the stump of an oak tree. The explosion was so powerful that the burning wood flew into the neighbor's yard and nearly hit someone.

Feng. Greinen was furious, Chapman had said he was so good at explosives, but now it seemed that this was clearly not the case, and he was not an expert. Once, while he was trying to make a sulfuric acid tube, the unstable mixture that suddenly came alive burned his hand. He also burned a handful of his hair, so that his face was covered in soot.

Feng. Grein's relationship with his darling Chapman grew closer. Chapman had a distant relationship with his father, and he used to see him occasionally. Now I haven't seen each other for about ten years. Grenin plays the role, and their affection for each other is real. In the evening, when von. When Greinen drank one after another. Chapman would listen intently as the elder spoke about art, music, and literature. They found that both men liked Wells's novels, and they both liked Tennison's poetry. Grenin rarely touches on politics or military content. He had always believed that Germany would eventually win the war, and that if the Allies tried to advance into France, there would be a bitter battle between the two sides, and his assessment was based on a veteran's judgment of the situation, rather than promoting a certain ideology

If von. Grein's belief that war is delicate and balanced is the opposite of what his deputies do. Pretolias and von. Greins have never been very friendly to each other. Pretolias considered his boss to be the pretentious remnants of the old world. And von. Grein's tolerant personality in turn allowed Pretolias to be infinitely fascinated by Hitler. The young man insisted that the loss of Russia meant victory on the Eastern Front, and he believed that Stalingrad would fall in 1943. Then Germany would concentrate all its forces in Europe and Russia on an all-out attack on England, and the thought of the prospect of a "beautiful blitzkrieg" in England made him extremely excited by the idea that Field Marshal Ernst was invincible

"As you can imagine, our bombers and fighters are highly trained, brave and strong," Pretolias claimed, "and what can our enemy do?" ”

Over the next week, Chapman will be working with a demolition expert to learn the latest demolition techniques. The blasting expert was Dr. Ackermann, a chemist and one of Germany's most respected blasting experts. Chapman arrives at the lab, which is filled with corked glass bottles, test tubes, thermoses, scales, rods, and mortars. Dr. Ackerman meticulously and patiently explained Chapman the mysteries of lethal weapons, the magical secrets of explosives, burning mixtures, booby traps, and time-lapse sabotage.

He taught Chapman to make timing leads from cheap watches, inserting screws with a nut at each end into the watch, connecting one end of the wire to an alkaline battery, and inserting the other end into the inside of the watch, when the watch hand touches the screw, it will cause the battery to discharge, which will trigger the lead to cause an explosion. Later, he brought an alarm clock and showed Chapman how to connect a spring spring to a detonator for a delay of up to 14 hours. If he didn't have a watch and no alarm clock, he would make a bomb out of an inkwell. He first filled the inkwell with sulfuric acid, then added a piece of cardboard between the glass bottle and the cap, which slowly corroded the paper and finally triggered the fuse hidden in the lid, which caused an explosion by the thermal reaction.

He then took a large chunk of coal out of the basket and told Chapman how to drill a six-inch hole in the coal, stuff explosives and detonators into the hole, and plug the hole with clay, shoe dust, and soot. Then put it in the coal bunker of a train or ship, this device does not detonate on its own, only when people throw this piece of coal into the stove, it can cause an explosion when it comes to heat.

Ackerman told Chapman how to blow up the train and gas station where the arms were delivered, how to pack suitcases, wrap bombs and put pajamas and towels on them. Chapman learns how to make a booby out of a package, and although the wire on the outside of the package is cut, there are still two wires separated from each other inside, so cutting the wire with scissors will trigger an explosion. Ackerman drew an icon showing how to connect the explosives to the detonator and explained how many high-energy explosives could be used to blow up a bridge. Some of Ackerman's tactics are brutal: tying a dead butterfly to a railroad track with a linear detonator, a device that would never be detected by the average person. When the train passes by, it triggers an explosion that derails the locomotive.

This teacher who teaches blasting never smokes. He doesn't drink either, and only interrupts lectures when he eats. Chapman felt that he was a perfectionist: he demanded precise proportions, never rushed, grinding everything into a very fine powder and then carefully mixing it.

"The raw materials needed to make these bombs are available in pharmacies," explains Ackerman, "Potassium chloride is usually used to kill slugs, and potassium nitrate is used as fertilizer. Potassium permanganate is used to make mouthwashes; The British used iron dan to dye the floor, and alumina as a silvery-white dye."

Chapman attends classes late every day. After dinner, Ackerman pulls a chair and sits by the fireplace to continue tutoring Chapman. Sometimes Pretolias was asked to help Chapman translate technical terms.

Three days later, Ackerman seemed to be more satisfied, and Chapman was about to die of exhaustion

Upon returning to the Walleston Center, Chapman was interviewed by von Brown. Warm welcome from Grein. He prepared a quiz for Chapman. Colonel Mayer was their friend. Responsible for the safety of local factories, including the locomotive manufacturing plant in the Batinole region. Feng. Mr. Grein's introduction to Chapman was that he said he had trained an agent for sabotage, a former robber who could break into almost any house, and he bet that Chapman could even put a silent bomb in the locomotive factory. Colonel Mayer agreed with his statement. A few days later, Chapman and Leo infiltrated the factory through barbed wire, dodging dozing guards and leaving a package next to Mayer's office. Feng. Grenin was overjoyed. The money from the bet was also used to organize a party for Fritz.

Chapman returned to his gardener's cottage. The successful raid on the locomotive factory was fun, but it took almost five months to spend in the center of Walleston. Chapman began to feel bored and frustrated by being forced to abstain from sex, and he barely saw a woman except for the prostitutes in Nantes, and everyone else couldn't help but laugh at themselves as "like fucking monks" when they talked about not being accompanied by women.

One night, Chapman, Albert, and Worth went out to party when they found a couple of girls in an officer's car, only to be found by a Gestapo officer in their car and filed a complaint. When von. When Greinen learned about this, he was blown up.

"We're in big trouble." Chapman wrote.

Wochi is a von. Grein's first victim in a fit of rage, the stocky sabotage agent, was assigned to a guard near Paris, and Chapman was never seen again.

In the von. In his letters to his superiors, Greinen was careful to suggest that while Chapman was otherwise excellent, he was prone to what Greinen called "trouble-provoking impulsive behavior."

Feng. Grenin found that he had to speed up his actions and get Chapman to work as soon as possible, or he might lose the young spy wizard altogether.

On August 29, 1942, Chapman was arrested in his study by von Brown. Grenin summoned him and handed him a stack of printed papers. Feng. Greinen asked Chapman to read the documents and sign them if he had no objections. It was a contract, a number of terms that needed to be formally enforced, requiring him to spy on his own country, which was unique in the historical record.

The first part lists the things that are forbidden: Chapman must never divulge the names of any Germans he has seen in Jersey, France, or Germany, where he has been, and what he has studied. If these rules were violated, Chapman was put to death.

Chapman would engage in espionage activities in the interests of the German High Command, unconditionally fulfilling the tasks assigned to him by the German Military Intelligence. He was to be compensated by the following amount of money: in France he would receive twelve thousand francs a month, and from the day he set out he would receive three hundred German marks a month until the day he was arrested. If he had successfully completed the tasks assigned by the German military intelligence and returned to France, he would have received a total of 150,000 Deutschmarks.

Chapman estimated that the money was roughly equivalent to fifteen thousand pounds. At the current exchange rate, it is roughly 7,300 pounds.

This was not a contract with the German government, but Chapman and the head of the espionage, von Brown. Private legal treaties between Grenin. (To be continued......)
