Secret War Silent

"I want to find this book, but now we can search in a targeted manner, because I tried to arrange and combine to get a few words, her, light, grain or grain, and these words are coherent at the beginning of a certain page. If you find this English book, you can crack the masthead code!"

"You mean, let me look through all the English books on the market, how much work is that, and how do you know that they are not using a specific book?" Luo Yao asked.

"It should be a common book. If it is not a common book, it is easy to be noticed and suspected. This is not in line with the practice of an intelligence agent lurking in the enemy's work." Osborn raised his voice, "Ordinary peace Anything that's the best cover."

"Well, let's look for it. Let's start with the common English books that can be bought on the market." Luo Yao thought for a while, if he was looking for no purpose, then he might as well not look for it, it would be a waste of manpower and material resources There may not be any results, but now there is a targeted goal.

At least a few English words are used as keywords.

This narrows the scope, but it is still very difficult to find it this way, but sometimes, when there is no other way, you can only use this stupid method.

"Luo, I need ten people, as long as they can understand English, I will find them for you within three days." Osborn said solemnly.

"Advisor Osborne, can I think you are issuing a military order?" Luo Yao asked seriously.

"Yes."

"Okay, I'll give you ten people and three days. If you find this book for me, I'll give you credit." Luo Yao said immediately.

"I don't want you to give me credit, I want to marry Miss Xu Zhen!" Osborne said word by word.

"Advisor Osborn, these are two different things, don't confuse them." Luo Yao's face immediately changed, and he knew that Osborn's daring to issue a military order was not a good thing.

"Luo, if you don't agree to my request, I'll go to your boss Dai. I don't think he will refuse to make this deal with me."

"Advisor Osborn, is it too much for you to do this?"

"Luo, my relationship with Xu is serious. I know that according to the agreement, my time in China is limited, but I can continue to sign a service contract with you and extend the time so that Xu and I can get along for a longer time. , If we are really not suitable at that time, I will divorce her and regain my freedom!" Osborne said.

"Consultant Osborne, you may not understand our Chinese attitude towards marriage. Marriage is a lifetime thing for Chinese people. Divorce is only when one party cheats or loses morals. It is different from you Americans." Luo Yao He said solemnly, "And marriage means responsibility and loyalty to marriage. I don't think you can do this."

"Luo, you are slandering!"

"I'm not slandering you. When you come to China, do the math yourself. How many girlfriends did you change?" Luo Yao asked.

"I was just acting on occasion, but it's different now. Xu is someone I like and cherish. I am willing to spend the rest of my life with her." Osborne said seriously.

"If one day you return to the United States, will you take Xu Zhen with you?"

"Of course, he is my wife. I'm going back to America with me. Is there any problem?"

"Advisor Osborn, if you insist on marrying Xu Zhen, you must vouch for her. You know that her past is problematic." Luo Yao said, "We cannot allow someone who is married to Xu Zhen to be Wang's lover. Women show up around us unless you can vouch for her on your reputation."

"Okay, I'll put my reputation on it."

"Since you insist on this, then I will give you this opportunity. Within three days, find the English book with the code of the 'Midnight Ghost' secret telegram header. If you find it, you can marry Miss Xu Zhen. If you can't find it, this matter You can't mention it again, and you still need to never see Miss Xu Zhen again, how about that?" Luo Yao asked.

"Okay." Osborn looked at Luo Yao like a lion, his eyes were full of fire, obviously irritated.

"Empty words have no evidence, but words are evidence."

Osborn immediately signed, stamped his fingerprints, and handed it to Luo Yao.

"Station Master, I just saw Consultant Osborne leave your place, and my face doesn't look very good." Qi Zhibin knocked on the door and walked in.

"It's nothing, a military order has been issued." Luo Yao said lightly.

"Advisor Osborne came to you to issue a military order, is it true or not?" Qi Zhibin was taken aback.

"Keep your voice down, lest others don't know?" Luo Yao gave Qi Zhibin a sideways glance, "Don't go out and spread the word, it just so happens that you're here, I have something to say, it's like this, you give me..."

"Yes, station master, do you want me to secretly arrange one or two people to make trouble for him?"

"What's the trouble, if he can find it, I'll admit it." Luo Yao stared, "When did I play such a fool, and my words don't count?"

"Understood." Qi Zhibin agreed with a guilty conscience.

Chapter 0368 The White Plan

Europe.

It is only a matter of time before Germany takes action against Poland.

The German army has begun to gather on the Polish border for more than a week, but the Polish side seems to be slow to respond, and there is no preparation for the imminent war.

The feud between the two countries began with World War I. After World War I, Poland, as the victor, ceded a lot of land from Germany, and a Polish corridor separated East Prussia from Germany.

This is the pain in the heart of the Germans.

Therefore, for Poland, the Germans will definitely not let it go. In order to reach an agreement with Soviet Russia, the purpose is also for the blood feud of Poland.

Many military strategists have optimistically analyzed that the German-Polish war will break out in a month at the earliest. Luo Yao has also seen many internal documents predicting the situation in Europe.

Basically this is the argument.

Only he knew that if that memory was correct, there would be news from Europe in a few hours, so when he got up early in the morning, he told Wen Xueren to focus on the communications from Europe.

There was a knock on the door.

"Enter."

"Deputy Director Luo, did you arrange ten English-speaking assistants for Consultant Osborne?" Gong Hui walked in with a businesslike tone.

"Yes, is there a problem?"

"We are short of manpower. Now you ask Qi Zhibin to assign him ten people all at once. What about other jobs?" Gong Hui was very angry.

"In just three days, Osborne issued a military order for me. In three days, ten people deciphered the secret message of the 'Midnight Ghost'. I succeeded. I promised him to marry Xu Zhen. If I failed, I will never mention it again." Yao gave a very concise explanation.

"He's out of his mind, why did he issue such a military order with you?" Gong Hui was startled when she heard this, and asked in surprise.

"Maybe it's because of love. Americans are more emotional. When their brains are hot, they can do anything." Luo Yao said, "By the way, I haven't asked you yet. You talked about it with Xu Zhen. how's it going?"

"After eating the weight, I became determined."

"So, this is still a pair of crazy men and women." Luo Yao chuckled.

"You're still laughing, what should we do now? If Osborne really deciphered the 'Midnight Ghost' code, would you really agree to marry the two of them?"

"Of course, I, the deputy director of the 'secret translation room', keeps my word." Luo Yao nodded, "I think you will find a chance to have a good talk with Old Han and Sister Mei. Since you can't stop it, let her under our noses."

"The risk is huge. If the secret is leaked, the loss will be huge." Gong Hui said.

"If Xu Zhen is really working for the Japanese secretly, and we stopped this time, who will they send and in what way will they infiltrate next time?" Luo Yao asked back, "Next, I will adjust Osborne's work so that He participated in part of the work, but restricted our progress in deciphering the Japanese secret code and related secrets, which is the price he paid for marrying Xu Zhen."

"Don't we need him anymore?"

"We haven't reached that point yet, at least his experience in code-breaking is what we need, and our people also need time and experience to mature." Luo Yao said, "Deciphering codes is related to national security, and it is still in our own hands. good."

"As long as you have a plan, once the Japanese know that we have deciphered their diplomatic communication code, they will immediately replace and upgrade it."

"Even if we can't decipher their communication secret code, according to the normal practice, they will change the code every once in a while, and they will not relax when upgrading." Luo Yao said.

"The exchange and study group of the secret inspection station will leave tomorrow morning, don't forget the farewell banquet tonight." Gong Hui reminded, turned around and left.

The cold war between him and Gong Hui is still going on.

……

In ancient and modern China and abroad, the time chosen for night raids is basically the same, that is, between [-]:[-] am and [-]:[-] am. This is the time when people are most sleepy, and it is also the darkness before dawn.

The "White Plan" of the German army was chosen at this time.

Hundreds of tanks and hundreds of thousands of elite German troops have already entered the predetermined location, quietly waiting for the order to attack.

4:45 minutes.

Three red flares were suddenly launched from the German side of the border.

The calm was broken in an instant.

The roar of tanks, the roar of artillery, and the charging of soldiers...

Before the Polish soldiers who were still sleeping soundly put on their clothes and weapons, they rushed out of the barracks. The entire barracks were covered by artillery fire, and the whole system was wiped off the face of the earth.

The war has begun.

It was very sudden, but it seemed to be expected.

……

European time is the early morning of September 9st, but in Eastern Asia, it is almost noon for lunch. People are used to the Japanese military planes dropping a few bombs and then leaving. Come out and do what you have to do.

Everything has already become a habit.

At twelve o'clock, there were not many people eating in the cafeteria. Basically, Luo Yao came to the cafeteria until the big guys had almost eaten, so that there were fewer people and he could have a quiet meal.

The cafeteria will not specially reserve food for him. Anyway, he usually eats whatever he has, and he is not picky about food, but it is a little cold when he eats.

When I came here today, there was no more rice in the cafeteria, only steamed buns, two steamed buns, a plate of green vegetables, and a serving of stir-fried pork with green beans.

Luo Yao's food was delicious.

In today's China, being able to eat a bite of this kind of rice is already a big deal, and most of them can't even eat a bite of white noodles, let alone be full.

"Station Master, Station Master..."

Wen Xueren trotted in all the way and rushed to Luo Yao: "Station Master, Germany invaded Poland, and the European War broke out."

"What, are you sure?"

"I'm sure, this is the plain code telegram I just received from the British embassy in Poland to the mainland." Wen Xueren took out a telegram and handed it to Luo Yaodao.

The clear code message means that anyone in the world who is in this frequency band can receive this message. This is an intention to spread this message all over the world.

Otherwise, how to send a telegram in clear code.

"Report immediately." Luo Yao didn't even bother to eat, grabbed a steamed bun, took a bite, and rushed out of the cafeteria.

……

"The news is reliable?" Mao Qiwu was taken aback when he received Luo Yao's call. The sudden outbreak of the European War had a great impact on the Chinese battlefield.

"The plain code message from the British should not be false. We are still verifying it in multiple ways. Once we have news, we will report it immediately." Luo Yao said.

"Have you deciphered the British diplomatic code?"

"Secretary Mao, this is a clear-coded message, as long as it can be received, it can be translated." Luo Yao hurriedly explained.

"Oh, I got it, I'll report to Boss Dai right away." Mao Qiwu finally came to his senses, and hurriedly said, it's not that the sky has changed, but the world situation is about to change.

……

Soon, relevant news continued to come from Europe, both direct and indirect, and the government also had an embassy in Germany.

Although the news was a bit slower, a telegram was sent back to the country later in the day.

Germany invaded Poland.

It's no longer a secret.

The Polish army was caught off guard, suffered heavy losses, and was unable to organize effective resistance at all. Poland, which has the second military power in Europe, was completely helpless under the attack of the German army.

The strength of the German army shocked the world.

……

In the evening, the farewell dinner for the exchange and study group of the secret inspection office could only be over after a quick meal. With the outbreak of the European War, the workload of the entire "secret translation room" suddenly increased, and everyone had to work overtime and stay up late.

In the middle of the night, the secret translation room was brightly lit, and everyone was on duty.

All the receivers in the radio room were turned on to fully receive the telegrams sent by all parties. Basically, the content was the same thing: the German army invaded Poland.

Early the next morning, the news in the newspapers came out overwhelmingly, and the whole world also knew the news, and the war finally broke out.

The secret translation room was the fastest to intercept the British telegram, and the national government knew the news almost at the first moment of the outbreak of the war. The efficiency was so high that it was rewarded by the high command.

However, the embassies of Britain, France, and the United States stationed in the mountain city actually got the exact news when they were notified and asked by the Chinese side.

A country with such backward communication technology actually knew about the outbreak of war in Europe first, but they were not aware of it, which shocked and curious countries.

The existence of the "secret translation room" was spread on a small scale.

The military command also wants to keep it secret and prevent the existence of the "secret translation room" from being known to outsiders, but this is difficult to do. After all, there are already many organizations that know about the "secret translation room". , which is also unrealistic.

In the national government, besides the secret inspection office, there is such a code-breaking agency that is not inferior to the secret inspection office. It is not only the intelligence agencies of various countries, especially the Japanese intelligence agencies that are surprised.

……

Germany's invasion of Poland had no effect on Osborne. He was taking ten English-speaking assistants provided by Wu Fu and Qi Zhibin to search for the English book with the masthead code of "Midnight Ghost" hidden.

Day and night, almost without sleep, my eyes are like rabbits.

However, there were no results, and some suspected ones were found, but after taking them for verification, it was quickly determined that they were not at all.

Soon, two days passed.
