Which is the clear enemy, the Soviets? Or the suspicious ally, the United States, and oh, maybe France.
During the day, these people are the backbone who support Whitehall and issue orders to the entire British Empire. At the cocktail party in the evening, their words are no different from ordinary people in the market, and they have all the gossip mentality they should have.
Alan Wilson said that the technologies worth searching for in Germany were actually those well-known rocket technologies and some black technologies inspired by the desperate period.
Of course, most of the so-called black technologies can be called defective products with immature technology and open minds. But the general direction is not wrong. Germany is at the end of the road and applies semi-finished products to war regardless of its technological content.
that's it.
Thinking about black technology, before the Soviet Union committed suicide, the Caspian Monster's giant ground-effect aircraft and the Shark-class nuclear submarine that was larger than an ordinary aircraft carrier were much more powerful than the semi-finished products leaked from Germany now.
A strong country must have the necessary technical reserves, but losers will leak them. If the United States, the rebellious son of the British Empire, is also unlucky one day, the black technology leaked may be even more terrifying.
However, in Alan Wilson's view, Germany's biggest black technology is its uniforms. These uniforms have attracted countless soaps with their legs spread to sing praises for Germany. What a commendable spirit.
It is more lethal than anything such as the "Giant Rat" super-heavy tank and the "Silver Bird" aerospace plane.
Burgess, who had gone around in a circle, came back again, sat next to Philby, and asked Alan Wilson, "Your work achievements are linked to risks. Everyone knows that you are going to the German-occupied areas at this time.
It will be a glorious addition to the resume, but on the other hand, we can all imagine what the current European continent is like. Armies on both the east and west fronts have swept across Germany. Germany is not good at agriculture, and
Without supplementary overseas colonies, even food is now a problem."
"Burgess is right." Philby nodded from the side. "Even if Germany surrenders immediately, there will be little time left to start agricultural production. Tens of millions of Germans have to eat, which is a huge burden.
.”
It is now May, which is almost the time in history when Germany surrendered. The farming season has passed. Even if we plant now, we will not be able to complete the growth in the second half of the year. Whether the Germans can have enough to eat depends entirely on the previous accumulation. If
If it wasn't taken away.
"It seems that only Americans can solve this problem." Alan Wilson expressed his thoughts in a daze.
The only country in the world that can solve the problem of feeding such a huge population is the United States. Although in the agricultural era, the United States was always harvested by the Arctic cold current and was not very good.
"No matter what, I hope everything goes well for Alan, and if possible, help some poor people." Compared to Philby, Burgess is still more sympathetic, which is a problem that idealistic people have.
Alan Wilson also agreed happily. He had originally planned to do this. After all, he was a civil servant of the British Empire, and this was a matter of unshirkable responsibility.
After the cocktail party, someone naturally paid the bill, and a well-dressed man drove up to pick up Alan Wilson. Civil servants from the two departments also left in twos and threes, resting early, as they would continue to serve the British Empire tomorrow.
When he got home, Alan Wilson reached out and asked Ali Khan's housekeeper in London to come into the room. As soon as he sat down, he asked directly, "I wonder how the Maharaja feels about my idea. Can I borrow some funds temporarily."
Of course Alan Wilson can maintain the character of returning from British India with no shortage of money. However, for the welfare of the people of Hyderabad, he cannot invest in Ali Khan's place.
Money makes sense wherever you go.
"The Maharaja understands the Commissioner's contribution to Hyderabad. The telegram has stated that he is willing to support the Commissioner's trip to Europe this time." The butler nodded calmly, "It's just that the amount is relatively large."
"With the Maharaja's wealth, one million pounds is not a big sum of money, at best it is a suitable sum of money. I am very grateful to the Maharaja for your consideration, but I thought of one more thing. Money alone cannot
To solve the problem." Alan Wilson thought for a moment and said, "We need something else."
"What do you need?" The butler's heart thumped. It wasn't that he was very loyal to Ali Khan and he cared about the wealth of the Hyderabad monarch, but that he would get busy when things started to work.
"Food, food and cigarettes are even more useful than money at times like this." Alan Wilson said solemnly, "Now that Germany has been plowed by the flames of war, food shortages are a high probability. If Ali Khan can
In this matter, setting an example as a monarch can completely serve as a moral example in the brutal aftermath of the world war. I will do the rest and send appropriate weapons back to Hyderabad."
"Then I will contact the Maharaja now." The butler did not dare to neglect after hearing this, and was called back by Alan Wilson. "First collect some cigarettes and alcohol. German men suffered heavy losses during the war. Let us first solve the needs of the men. As for the
Women, war makes women go away."
Although both men and women are cannon fodder in war, the value of cannon fodder and cannon fodder is also different. Once a war breaks out, all women's rights are bullshit. It's okay to make trouble in peacetime. During war, the government will only give priority to men's rights.
, whether you admit it or not, this is a fact.
In Germany, which had just ended the war, tobacco and alcohol were definitely hard currencies, more useful than the paper-like mark, and maybe even more useful than the pound sterling.
Thousands of miles away, the weather in Eastern Europe was still very cool. In Moscow's Lubyanka Square, Merkulov, the director of the General Administration of State Security, who was busy writing documents, was hurriedly writing at his desk. The phone on the table suddenly rang violently.
"I'm Merkulov!" Merkulov reached for the microphone, his eyes under his thick hair were full of sharpness.
"I'm Beria!" A cold voice came from the other end of the phone and introduced himself.
Merkulov suddenly stood up straight and responded loudly, "General Political Commissar, what are your orders?"
"Assemble the main personnel of the First General Administration and immediately leave for Germany to start Operation Osawagen, focusing on German scientists in the rocket field." Beria calmly ordered, "All frontline troops must cooperate."
"Yes!" Merkulov responded with a loud voice as if he had received something big, and a busy tone was heard from the other side of the microphone.
