"Bratton has been talking to you for so long, are there any important takeaways?"

After Han Lin returned to the hall, Smith came over.

"Do you know that Hitler's government proposed to Poland to build a highway in the Danzig corridor?" Han Lin asked.

"I know this, and it's not a secret meeting, Poland has explicitly rejected Hitler's demands, do you mean that Germany is going to attack the Danzig corridor area? But in this way, it will turn into a war between Germany and Poland, and by the way, Britain and France will also be dragged into the war, and more and more countries will be involved in a snowball, so it is no wonder that the Second World War is about to break out! ”

"But do you think that, given the present military strength of Germany, it would have the courage to attack Poland under the pressure of fighting on two fronts at the same time? Germany has only been free from the constraints of the Versailles Treaty for a few years, and their army is not yet capable of this, right? Smithton understood.

"If Britain and France can resolutely take military action when Germany attacks Poland, it is unlikely that with the strength of the German army, it will be impossible to resist such a joint attack and destroy the Ruhr industrial area, and the basis of the war will disappear, but the question is, can Britain and France really do this?" Han Lin pursed his lips and said.

Smithton stopped talking.

The performance of Britain and France, from the moment Hitler came to power, can be called a failure!

In particular, France, known as the first military power in Europe, but the high command was weak and incompetent, and did not dare to take any action in the face of Hitler's advance into the Rhineland, and the people did not support the war.

"Han Jun will not say hello to me in advance when he returns to Shanghai this time, so I can pick up the wind and wash the dust for you." Kagesa Zhenzhao walked up to him and said with a smile, Takagi Yuhou and Qingqi Qingyin followed suit.

"You are all busy people, how dare you bother a few people with this little thing." Han Lin said with a smile.

"Han Jun is the real busy man, the military attachés of the German and American consulates in Shanghai have come to chat with you." Kagesa said.

"I know that you are not here to attend the party, but to find me for another purpose, let's go to the third floor to find a room to talk, the hall is noisy and can't talk with peace of mind." Han Lin said.

After making a pot of tea, the four of them got to the point.

"The War Department attaches great importance to the information you have given us about the war in Europe, which is related to the changes in the situation around the world, and you just interviewed Bratton and Smith, and you will also talk about this topic, right?" Kagesa asked.

"Kagesa-kun, according to your own agreement within the military department, my international information can only be provided to the Tuhihara agency at present, you know this, without the consent of the Tuhihara organ, when it comes to the topic of intelligence, I need to keep it secret." Han Lin said.

It is a taboo in the profession that those who engage in intelligence are not strict, and the fulfillment of cooperation agreements is also a minimum of professional ethics and principles.

Han Lin knew that Kenji Dohihara had already been transferred to the Kwantung Army as the commander of the Fifth Army in May, and the organs of Dohihara were in charge of Major General Dasuo Tongzhen.

But if he does this, he will not have any contradictions with Kagesa Zhenzhao, on the contrary, he will be more trusted and respected, and no one will want to come into contact with people who do not follow the rules of the game.

"Of course I won't make it difficult for you, I admire you for being able to stick to your professional principles. General Dohihara took up a military post in the Kwantung Army, and according to the instructions of the military department, I will be in charge of your international intelligence work in the future. ”

"Qingqi Qingyin Zhongzuo serves as my assistant, and you can also dock with him during my absence in Shanghai. When it comes to intelligence on diplomatic strategy, Takagi-kun is in charge of communicating with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and you don't need to talk to Yunzi about your information in the future, and her authority has been withdrawn. Kagesa said.

The infamous plum mechanism is beginning to take shape!

"Two pieces of intelligence, but it's a bit too early to draw conclusions, first, Germany is in contact with the Soviet Union, and the purpose is also very clear to you, that is, the two sides will not invade each other, which also means that Germany will not break out a war with the Soviet Union first."

"Second, you may know about the Danzig Corridor, Germany is preparing to take back the Danzig Corridor by force, which is also tantamount to waging war against Poland. Han Lin said.

"France and Poland have a military aid treaty, once Germany launches an attack on Poland, France will inevitably be involved, Poland and France declare war on Germany, Britain can only declare war on Germany, and the war in Europe will be in full flames."

"Han Jun, I will provide you with a large amount of funds, be sure to implement these two pieces of information, this is very important to our Great Japanese Empire, you must know that in the Normenhan region, the empire and the Soviet Union are engaged in a small-scale conflict, which may turn into a large-scale conflict at any time, if Germany signs a non-aggression pact with the Soviet Union, this will also affect the strategic layout of the empire." Kagesa said.

"Since you want to expedite processing, then you have to add money, and the additional fee of 200,000 US dollars paid to the international intelligence organization for each piece of information, I need 100,000 US dollars myself, and I must cash in before the end of the month."

"This is not a bargain with you, according to the normal way, I can also get intelligence, but there is no guarantee of timeliness, so you don't need to pay extra expedited fees, if you want to know relatively accurate information in advance, international intelligence organizations have to pay more for the insider."

"I know that this is not a small amount, and the promise given to you is, first, to find out the approximate time of the non-aggression pact between Germany and the Soviet Union. Second, find out when Germany will attack Poland. You can think about it and let me know before the end of the month. Han Lin said.

The Japanese don't make money for nothing, what price does he need to pay? Nothing was needed, just the approximate time to tell the information, although he did not remember the exact time when Germany and the Soviet Union signed the contract, but he did remember that it was a week before the full-scale outbreak of World War II.

In this way, it is about the 23rd or 4th of August, and because of these two pieces of information, it is worth it to get 500,000 US dollars from the Japanese.

"Deal!" Kagesa didn't hesitate at all.

Han Lin asked for $500,000 when he opened his mouth, which was an extremely astonishing amount of money at this time, but none of the three people present objected.

What level of intelligence is this? Strategic!

Not to mention 500,000 US dollars, even 5 million US dollars is worth it, and the Japanese intelligence department has money, and it can't find a way to get information, the price given by Han Lin is already very fair, and there is no lion to open his mouth.
