In the long corridor in front of the president's office in the White House, the sound of leather shoes hitting the stone floor echoes. Two officers in Navy uniforms walked to the door of Roosevelt's office one after the other, stretched out their hands and knocked on the door: "Dangdang." ”

"Please come in!" Roosevelt's aide replied loudly to the knock on the door, pushing Roosevelt around his desk, apparently in a wheelchair as he could not wait to know the contents of the news brought back by the two naval officers.

The two people outside the door pushed open the door, and then stood up in front of Roosevelt and saluted: "Mr. President, the news just passed back that the submarine Da Qingyu has successfully completed its mission, and the submarine in charge of observation has also sent back similar contents...... Our plan to stop the secret weapons of the German army should have been triumphantly completed. ”

"God bless America. Roosevelt said in a hoarse and slow voice: "What was the reaction of the Germans? Did they try to salvage the wreck? What is the progress? You are all experts, so don't wait for me to ask little by little, just tell me." ”

"In order to listen to the two of you, all the meetings and activities in the morning have been cancelled, Mr. President, please be sure to elaborate on the follow-up of this plan, after all, this is a major event that cannot be ignored for the whole United States. Roosevelt's aide whispered to the two admirals.

The two men looked at each other, then nodded, and one of them began to explain the details of the operation, while the other took out matching drawings and documents from the various charts and documents he had brought.

"On July 24, we organized two submarines to go to the Mediterranean Sea ahead of schedule, and in order to ensure the secrecy of the operation, we even directly transferred most of the aces with actual combat experience in the Navy's submarine force. A general pointed to the port from which the submarine had departed, and then drew a straight line across the Atlantic Ocean and Gibraltar into the Mediterranean.

"In fact, in order to ensure the accuracy of the operation, we also sent three submarines on July 29 to carry out a parallel mission plan. Another officer added: "They are not subordinate to each other, they just know each other's existence." ”

"In a word, our plan of action went very well, a German cruiser was sunk, and here it ...... The approximate location is about ...... as planned," the general who spoke first continued: "There are many reasons why this place was chosen as the ambush site, but the main reason is that the depth of the sea here is not convenient for the Germans to carry out salvage work afterwards. ”

Roosevelt abruptly interrupted the two naval officers and asked, "Are you sure that the Germans' salvage plan will not be easy to achieve? You know, you are all senior officers who have made this plan, and you know that what sank is enough to destroy the whole of New York......

"Mr. President, we have consulted with the best salvage teams in the United States, and they believe that the Germans will not make any progress in salvaging the ship that sank there for ten months. The general at the head thought for a moment and said, "But this is only our unilateral speculation, and we have no way of predicting the exact salvage speed of the Germans......"

Another officer hurriedly took out various photographs of German atomic weapons and continued to explain to Roosevelt: "Rest assured, Mr. President, our scientists have confirmed that after that thing enters the water, it must be sent back to the German mainland before it can be repaired...... After all, it is a sophisticated high-tech weapon, and it should be at least 1940 when it is transported to Africa for experimentation. ”

When Roosevelt heard this, he nodded noncommittally, as if he was pondering something, and then suddenly asked, "So, I'm just curious...... We didn't snatch this secret weapon on land, is it possible to steal it from the sea and ship it to America before the Germans?"

"This is the second thing we have come to report to you. The naval officer at the head hurriedly said: "The news of the sinking of the German cruiser sent back by the submarine plaice was confirmed, and three Italian destroyers quickly arrived in the nearby waters, they blocked and drove away all approaching ships, and then launched a rescue. ”

Roosevelt may not have imagined the spectacle of hundreds of people floating on the sea, but since the Germans had suffered all kinds of losses, at least the suspicious Roosevelt was convinced of the news: the Germans were indeed transporting things to Africa for experiments. And this thing is extremely precious, worthy of the German army's investment in escort and search.

"Oh, you mean, the nearby waters are blocked?" Roosevelt's eyes lit up as if they were about to close at any moment: "The Germans are really salvage, right? They want to pick up that thing and continue their evil experiment...... We have to stop them! We have to stop them from salvaging there!"

"Sir, there is no way for us to launch a large-scale operation against the Italian and German navies in the Mediterranean, that would only increase the casualties of our navy, and of no other use. The naval officer at the head was afraid of some unreasonable order from Roosevelt, and hastened to say: "We have sunk that German warship in the deepest position on the course, and this is all we can do." ”

Roosevelt also felt that he was in a hurry, so he nodded, and motioned to his assistant with his already trembling hand: "Oh, help me think about it, I'm going to summon a few experts in atomic theory in a moment, and I must arrange it." Ahem, ahem, ahem. ”

Seeing that he was coughing, the assistant quickly handed the US president the water cup on the table, and after feeding him half a glass of boiling water, he stopped his coughing. Roosevelt relieved himself a little before he said to the two admirals: "Very good! The navy's operation this time is very good! You have succeeded in dismantling the Germans' operation to destroy the United States, and I thank you on behalf of the country, thank you." ”

In his thanks, both U.S. Navy officers stood up and saluted. Then came Roosevelt's encouragement and the determination of the two officers, during which Roosevelt promised to personally award the captain of the Grand Herring submarine with the highest rank of the medal as a reward. However, it was very embarrassing that on the way home, the submarine was discovered by an anti-submarine destroyer of the German Navy and sunk in the North Atlantic.

......

"Sunk? Are you sure?" In the office of the Wehrmacht Intelligence Headquarters, Gascoll looked at his son with excitement, this operation was in charge of him, and it was also arranged by Führer Accardo himself - the success of this operation also marked the progress of the German atomic weapons program completely confusing the United States.

"Yes! The Americans did attack the cruiser Fort Corensburg and used 4 torpedoes in one go. Gascol Jr. seemed very pleased with the operation he commanded, and smiled at his father: "I have also organized a salvage fleet, including Italians and French...... You say, with so many big mouths, will the President of the United States know tomorrow that we can't get that 'Teutonic Knight' out?"

"Very good! You have lived up to my trust! It was the right decision to get you from the combat unit to the intelligence department in the first place. Gascoll looked at his son with satisfaction and said with satisfaction: "By the way, find a way to send the news out, and say that I am sick......! The Führer was furious in the office, citing ...... The reason is that the servant broke his beloved vase, what do you think?"

Gascoll Jr. was stunned for a moment, then suddenly burst out laughing. He looked at his father with a mocking expression, and then slapped a sycophant and said: "The first place in the screenwriting award at the Berlin Film Festival should be empty forever, because if our intelligence department does not accept the award, those screenwriters can only be regarded as second-rate characters." ”

Yes, they are the best planners, the best directors, and the best screenwriters. And they have the best actors under them. Some of these actors play the role of a commander in the enemy's army, some play a beggar in the enemy's street, some girls take root in the Moulin Rouge or Qinglou Hutong for their homeland, and some men even accompany old women who are old enough to be their grandmothers for the sake of intelligence.

These people are too real to make mistakes, and any mistake they make risks costing them their lives. They wake up every day and are performing, living with a character who can even deceive themselves, there is no end and no chance that never comes, they forget their names and lose their families......

40,000 German spies died or disappeared in the World War, and the remaining 50,000 fought to the end, and they are not even known compared to the actors who made a name for themselves. Gray wolves died in the Atlantic, poison died in Canada, and their homeland doesn't even know how to remember these loyal sons and daughters, except for a proud archive.

"How many people died?" Pouring a glass of red wine for his son, Gascoll suddenly asked: "How many people were killed in this operation, hundreds of people fell into the water?"

"19 soldiers were killed, 44 were wounded and 2 are missing...... Although the destroyer quickly caught up and rescued most of the people who had fallen overboard, something inevitable happened in the end. Little Gasco said helplessly: "We have done our best, war...... Death is inevitable. ”

"In my own name, give each of them a pension of 5,000 gold marks......" Gascoll commanded solemnly, drinking the wine from his glass.
