Chapter 1211: Spy Shadow (I)
"A weak country should have the posture of a weak country, what is hypocrisy?! I really don't understand what these people have in their heads...... "In the imperial capital, several staff officers in the General Staff of the Wehrmacht are whispering.
Born in the army, the logic of respecting the strong flows in their blood. Their distinction is clear, their comrades-in-arms are their own people. The rest may be enemies.
Then, the rest is the strong and the weak. In addition to their own people, the way they distinguish nations is between the strong and the weak. Obviously, India is the weakling. Since it is a weak person, then it should have the posture of a weak person.
Be honest and obedient, that's what they should do. Instead of self-righteous bargaining with the Wehrmacht, if they could not figure out this fact, they would be admonished by the Wehrmacht soldiers with knives and guns.
"You're very idle...... Since you are so idle, then immediately hand over to me the strategic report on Moscow! Su Zongzhen didn't know when he appeared behind these staff officers, and snorted coldly: "I have all the skills to chew the root of my tongue, what's the use of this?!" Get to work! ”
"Yes!!" A few staff officers replied loudly, and then ran away in a gloomy manner.
Su Zongzhen scolded twice before returning to his office. In the opinion of the Chief of the General Staff, there is now a very bad atmosphere in the Wehrmacht.
It is that the soldiers began to gradually have a kind of arrogance, from ordinary soldiers to upper-level generals, they can more or less experience the existence of this arrogance.
For Su Zongzhe, arrogance is good, but arrogance must be defeated. What are you proud of?! Didn't you just kill Japan, which was already lame, and clean up a bunch of monkeys in Southeast Asia?!
What's so arrogant about this?! The real knife and the European and American powers came so suddenly. I'm talking about arrogance.
In Su Zongzhe's view, the Wehrmacht is now only a regional powerhouse. There is still a long way to go before the first-class powers. The rise of Japan in those years. It stems from their victory in the Russo-Japanese War.
But even so, Japan was only a second-class power. The coalition government and the Defence Force still have a long way to go to become a first-class power, and there are still many enemies to defeat.
The arrogance from this time is too hypocritical.
"The concession of the strong will make people believe that this is forgiveness. And the weak's concession can only make people think that this is fear......" Su Zongzhen silently recited this sentence in his heart. This is what Tu Mengben once told him.
When he asked why the commander-in-chief had never backed down in international affairs, Tu Mengben said to him: "The weaker we are now, the tougher we must be. Because we're not strong enough. So everyone is testing whether we dare to fight to the death. ”
"And at this time, if we don't dare to fight to the death, we will only be bullied to death. Therefore, the more times like this, the more we should show our muscles! ”
"The purpose of our flexing of our muscles is to tell people who are trying to beat us up with bad ideas: You can hit me. But I can tear off your flesh too! Only they have taken care of it. Don't dare to hurt us easily......"
Of course, Tu Mengben also said another sentence at that time.
"This is when we are not strong enough. When we're strong enough, it's a different story......"
Su Zongzhe has always wondered what it would be like if he became stronger. But Tu Mengben just smiled and didn't say anything, avoiding answering this question.
These cubs still need to exercise for two more years...... Su Zongzhe hung his military hat on the coat rack and stroked his Huafa and sighed.
I am not young anymore, and I can sit in the position of chief of the General Staff for a few more years?! After all, it has to be given to those young people. But now these impulsive cubs make him very uncomfortable.
Soldiers, the country's major affairs. The place of death and life, the way of survival, must not be overlooked! How dare you let go of this place so easily?! You know, a decision by the General Staff could lead to the lives and deaths of hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of Wehrmacht soldiers.
Further, it is even related to the life and death of this country and this nation. How can we not take a closer look at such important matters?!
"Good progress! But it's still not enough, we need to be fast! Faster! "Hitler was in his office listening to the German radiochemist and physicist Otto. Hahn's report on the nuclear test.
"Now the German soldiers are under siege, and the Japanese are finished. We are about to face an attack by a squadron with a total strength of more than two million! ”
Hitler took a deep breath and said, "At this time, the German soldiers on the front line need us to have powerful weapons to assist them, only in this way can we win the war!" ”
Otto silently closed his report and placed it on Hitler's desk before saying, "Honorable Führer, you are in a hurry, I know. In fact, we are in a hurry! ”
"But science has its necessary conditions, and the processes that must be undertaken. What we need is time, and perhaps the investment of money can shorten this time. But money doesn't replace everything......"
"Manpower! I'll give you enough men! Hitler thought of the secret report given to him by the intelligence service. The above clearly shows that the US nuclear physics program has made rapid progress.
In the American Jewish physicist Robert Brown. Under Oppenheimer's auspices, the U.S. Congress allocated two billion dollars for this plan! That's the equivalent of $20 billion in posterity.
At the same time, another Hungarian-born American theoretical physicist, Eduard Edward. Taylor was also assisting Robert in his work. At the same time, the United States dispatched famous scientists including Fermi, Bohr, Feynman, von Fermi, Bohr, Feynman, and Von Fermi. Neumann, Wu Chien-shiung...... and more than 4,000 master physicists to assist in research and development.
With the huge amount of money allocated, and the assistance of 150,000 scientific researchers, and the great experience of the British. The U.S. nuclear weapons program has advanced by leaps and bounds, although no conclusive evidence has been obtained. But intelligence is sure that the Americans are already conducting explosive tests.
"All other projects are stopped, and all the manpower belongs to you!" Hitler's face was cloudy, and after a while, he gritted his teeth and said fiercely: "I will allocate another 500 million Reichsmarks to you!" ”
When Otto heard this, he couldn't help but be surprised! He did not expect Hitler to make such a decision, but then a cold sweat broke out.
Otto may only be a scientist, but he is not a nerd who can't listen to what's going on outside the window. Hitler's actions only illustrate one fact: the situation in Germany is getting worse and worse.
"We'll do our best! Führer, I assure you! Otto took a deep breath and said, "This is the only guarantee I can make for you, and I can't promise anything else......
Otto knew that Hitler's support for the matter had reached its limit. Among the tens of thousands of people who were originally conscripted into the army, Otto Leng transferred nearly 5,000 scientific research personnel and technicians from them.
Originally, the SS and the Wehrmacht High Command reacted greatly, but under Hitler's forced suppression, these people were still relegated to Otto's research laboratory.
Of course, in terms of effort, Otto did not fail to live up to Hitler's trust. Now that they have completed the basic fission test, all that remains is to make the subcritical fission charge instantly supercritical through the test.
The process of completing this experiment will be arduous, but once it is completed, it will mean the end of the project. What needs to be done is to transport it to an open area to test its harmfulness.
"Our 'Manhattan Project' may have leaked......" Washington, White House. Marshall said to Roosevelt with a solemn face.
Roosevelt was stupid on the spot, and he looked at Marshall in disbelief: "What?!" How is this possible?! Isn't everything done in secrecy?! How could it have been leaked?! ”
"I don't know the exact situation, but we recently reported back in Germany. Hitler mobilized a large sum of money and delivered it to a special planning group. And this planning group is the German nuclear weapons development project group that we suspected before......"
Marshall said to Roosevelt with a calm face: "Although there is not enough evidence that the Germans were aware of our nuclear weapons program, we can probably conclude that they are at least aware of our nuclear weapons program by virtue of their continued investment in the nuclear weapons program......
"Even, they probably have some idea of our progress. Otherwise, this plan would have been abandoned by them a long time ago. It will not be invested more in the near future. After a pause, Marshall said: "Although, Hitler restarted this plan. But if it were not supported by other evidence, he would not have allocated such a large amount of money for the research and development of such a weapon in such a difficult situation as the German team......"
Roosevelt kept his face composed, constantly moving around his office. What went wrong?! Roosevelt pondered this question for a long time.
In fact, Roosevelt knew it, too. A project that brings together 150,000 people will definitely have the problem of espionage. There is no way, the more people who are gathered, the greater the chance of problems.
But there are only those people who can really grasp the progress of the experiment. Who the hell could it be?!
There were too many people, but there were only a few people who could eventually reach the progress of the experiment. There will be no more than five thousand people. However, the investigation of 5,000 people is also very strong.
"Let the guys from the Strategic Intelligence Agency take care of this, I need to find out who the rat is hiding among us as soon as possible!" Roosevelt gritted his teeth and said, "If I don't find this bastard, I won't be able to sleep!" ”
"Yes! Your Excellency, I'll do my best to find these bastards! Marshall gave Roosevelt a solemn military salute and said, "But, this requires your authorization!" (To be continued......)
