Imperial Overlord

"You are so timely! This shipment is definitely too important." At the port, a man in a decent suit with the German Nazi Party emblem on his chest extended his hand to the man who stepped off the side of the ship with a smile. .

​​

The two held their hands together and laughed like a pair of in-laws at the same time. This cargo ship is an important cargo ship to the French port of Brest, and it is of American nationality.

​​

The fact that the freighter was filled with steel was something that Americans and Britons alike knew. Along the way, it was even escorted by American destroyers and the British Navy, and its identity was very mysterious.

​​

Of course, this is the top secret of the United States, using such a ship of steel as a bargaining chip to deploy its own new spy network in Germany.

​​

The businessman who came with the ship is not a serious American businessman at all, but a senior spy of the US intelligence agency, who is the head of this trip to Germany.

​​

He has the identity of an American businessman as a cover, and he has the amulet to help get the steel. It can be said that he is a very welcome guest of the German executives.

​​

Of course, the person who received this guest happened to be the well-known German intelligence agency, the intelligence officer of Abwell.

​​

What's even more interesting is that his arrival was actually a diplomatic mission ordered by the Führer, because the German side was making a very intentional transaction.

​​

While the German intelligence service was receiving American businessmen, on the other side, the Japanese ambassador to Germany, as well as a large number of foreign officials, were worrying about two things.

​​

The first thing was that the Germans were no longer zealously asking the Empire of Japan to join the Axis bloc, they took a step back and started looking for a looser alliance agreement.

​​

This change of attitude has made the Japanese side terrified, because they do not know if it is their own excessive demands that make the Germans no longer keen to win over Japan.

​​

"Mr. Shimada, the agreement this time was decided by the head of state. We believe that such a huge technical assistance requested by Japan will damage the future technological advantages of our company." Ribbentrop looked at the Japanese side. The diplomat Shimada said.

​​

His words made Shimada a little depressed. Although Japan did ask for technical assistance in many aspects, the cooperation between the two parties was quite smooth in the past.

​​

In Shimada's opinion, this situation is now entirely because the Germans have given too much technology, and on the other hand, Japan has shown too little sincerity.

​​

Japan has not been able to give Germany a satisfactory explanation for the attack on Nomonhan. Although it was said that the first cooperation was pleasant for both parties, then Japan was determined not to go north, making it possible for Germany and Japan to attack the Soviet Union completely. shattered.

​​

As for technology exchange, Japan really can't come up with anything decent to exchange with the Germans - the Zero fighter is a good entry point, but the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs itself does not know there is such a good thing.

​​

After some struggles, Germany replaced the Japanese diesel engine technology with several he-100 fighter jets and outdated me-109a fighter jets, as well as some warship design drawings.

​​

The most important thing is that, taking advantage of Japan's status as not participating in the war, he bought a batch of rubber from Asia and shipped it to Germany - it's a pity that there are too few of these things, which is the degree of meaning.

​​

However, Ribbentrop recently got a good thing, a super secret from the German intelligence service, and intends to replace some vital good things with Japan.

​​

Of course Shimada didn't think that, and he didn't care how much some secrets could be worth. But when parts of the document were leaked, Shimada was even more terrified and dumbfounded.

​​

Because the content of this document is very important, and it is so important that Japan only dreams of it: the Germans got the American p-40 fighter jets, as well as all the performance secrets of the Navy's f-4f fighter jets!

​​

Japan never even dared to get hold of this thing, but now it's so naked right in front of my eyes...

​​

After the Navy got the news, the feedback it gave was simpler: give what you want! We want this information!

​​

Of course, the navy side said to give what they wanted, but the foreign affairs department couldn’t really give what they wanted—so that’s why they made it to this point in time today.

​​

The price offered by Japan is already very good: joining the Axis Power Group is a sure thing, and in addition, a magnesium-aluminum alloy technology at the bottom of the press box will be used to exchange this information.

​​

The German side is still very satisfied with this exchange, but with the mentality of tight supply, they plan to find ways to get some benefits.

​​

"Mr. Ribbentrop, you know that our Empire of Japan has shown the greatest sincerity. I hope you will not waste any more time between allies." Shimada said with anger in his heart.

​​

Ribbentrop did not appear to be flustered, but said with a smile, "Mr. Shimada, at the national level, we no longer have much differences...but..."

​​

I have to say that the Japanese nation is really worth studying and learning in some aspects. For example, the mellowness and shamelessness of the Japanese nation surpasses that of most other nations.

​​

Seeing that Ribbentrop was still hesitating, Shimada offered another price: "Mr. Ribbentrop, for your personal favors, plus $200,000... Swiss bank, private account!"

​​

For 40 years, the US dollar was still a semi-world currency in circulation, especially in times of war, when the traditional world currency, the British pound, was hit, and the German mark was even more of a non-preserving value.

​​

Therefore, in this case, trading in US dollars has become the favorite of bribery recipients. And in 40 years, $200,000 would be a notch higher than $2 million today.

​​

Hearing that Shimada was on the road like this, Ribbentrop stopped hiding and pressed a thick document in front of Shimada: "This is what you want! Worth it!"

​​

Shimada took it over and opened it. He was so scared that he almost swallowed his tongue—this document was really detailed, it only needed the test pilot's autograph and the seal of the President of the United States.

​​

Just looking at this record, including the complex support structure, it is not a problem to find dozens of experts to imitate the two planes.

​​

"Yo Xi! This is really good value for money! Absolutely good value for money!" Shimada closed the document and stretched out his hand to Ribbentrop, and the two of them held their hands in this way. together.

​​

"If you can get 100,000 tons of steel, I will give you some very important goodies in private..." In the hotel, an intelligence officer dressed as a German businessman looked at the American businessman and said.

​​

"I really don't understand what you're talking about." The spy disguised as an American businessman was hypocritical and concealed his identity.

​​

"Actually, I know a high-ranking naval officer... You know that Japan and Germany are currently negotiating a new round... In exchange, the two countries have gotten a lot of good things from each other." The German intelligence officer pretended to be A very reluctant look appeared.

​​

He sat in a chair, looked at the American businessman and said, "You also know that it is unrealistic for Germany to want to build its own navy, especially at this time."

​​

"I've heard this. In the short term, the German side has no ability to compete with the British Navy's surface ships." The American businessman nodded with a smile, without saying his identity.

​​

"But we are different." The German intelligence officer opened his mouth and expressed his thoughts: "This war, the head of state is fighting for the country, the officials are fighting for the sake of making money, and my friends and I also want to think about ourselves. consider."

​​

"I support this idea. Money is the most convincing thing." The American businessman nodded in agreement.

​​

He was even rejoicing his luck. When he just arrived in Germany, the German intelligence agency chose to look after him, and it turned out to be a realist who wanted to make a fortune - the short-sighted realist who loves money the most in the United States.

​​

"The drawings of the Japanese battleships basically have no effect here, and we can't build one... Right?" The German intelligence officer directly gave his price.

​​

The American businessman, or the American spy disguised as a businessman, swallowed a mouthful of saliva after hearing the news. Because the price was too high, he shuddered.

​​

"How could the Japanese give this to you?" He calmed down for a while before saying this.

​​

"I don't care what you do, you go back to the United States, take this thing, and exchange for 100,000 tons of steel is definitely more than enough." The German businessman tempted: "You get the benefits of the United States, I will drink some soup... Isn't it too much?"

​​

Not only is it not excessive, it is simply extremely cheap. The American businessman thought about it and said, "Can I take the original drawings with me?"

​​

"This is a bit difficult, after all, when your ship leaves ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ it must be checked." The German replied with some embarrassment, and his answer also dispelled the last trace of the American spies' concerns.

​​

If the other party agrees to this matter at once, then there is definitely a problem with this matter. But the other party didn't dare to promise everything, so everything seemed so real and believable.

​​

"Steel is not difficult to raise, but the deal... how to deal?" The American spy was also afraid that the other party would trick him, so he asked.

​​

"I divided the drawings into 20 parts. 100,000 tons of steel is not a small amount. How about one transaction once and for all?" The conditions given by the Germans were quite fair.

​​

The American nodded: "How can we be sure that what we got is really a battleship equipped by the Japanese Navy?"

​​

"Can you bring someone to test it? Anyway, my friend told me that he said that the Japanese took Nagato-level design drawings..." The German replied with a smile.
