The decisive battle against the Third Reich

Qin Chuan's guess was correct.

When Rommel and Qin Chuan were alone in an office, Rommel sighed dejectedly: "Lieutenant Colonel, I'm wondering if we are wrong. The Allied attack target may really be Calais!"

"No, General!" Qin Chuan replied: "After knowing this information, I am even more certain that the Allied attack target is not Calais but the Brittany Peninsula!"

"Why?" Rommel looked at Qin Chuan in confusion.

Qin Chuan pointed at the map and said: "The Fourth Army in northern England and Scotland is preparing to attack Norway? Forget it! Several Soviet mountain divisions were beaten horribly by one of our mountain divisions in the Caucasus Mountains, and the Allies didn't even have mountain divisions. They are not familiar with the terrain and have no mountain troops. More importantly, they know that we have helicopters that can easily support mountain operations, so they would attack Norway? That is tantamount to seeking death!"

Rommel couldn't help but nodded after hearing this. You must know that the Kealien Mountains in Norway are 1,700 kilometers long and 200 to 600 kilometers deep... This is simply a natural barrier.

If the German army does not have helicopters, then it is indeed possible for the US and British Allied Forces to land in Norway. After all, this can directly support the Soviet Union in attacking the German Northern Front.

However, after the German army had helicopters, this was what the German army wanted, to fight a head-on war in the mountains.

"Then..." Then Rommel understood: "Starting from this point, that is, if the 4th Army's attack is fake, then all the information monitored by the radio is also fake. The British deliberately let us hear it. These!”

"Yes!" Qin Chuan replied: "At the same time, you will find that we can't verify whether the information heard by these radio monitoring is true, because they have implemented wartime emergency traffic control and our spies cannot get there in time. "

"Yes!" Rommel said: "It is also outside the reconnaissance range of our reconnaissance aircraft, not to mention warships! Everything is such a coincidence... The final result is that we can only use the radio to detect Monitor their promotions and activities in Norway and make judgments!”

"Yes!" Qin Chuan said: "So, this is obviously a trap. They have no intention of attacking Norway at all!"

"If the British can fake the radio communications of the 4th Army!" Rommel said, "then of course they can also fake the radio communications of the 1st Army at Dover."

"Of course!" Qin Chuan said: "The British would not be so stupid as to expose their unit numbers, strength and even the number of warships to our reconnaissance before the war!"

"So what happened to the military base at Dover?" Rommel asked.

"Your Excellency, Marshal!" Qin Chuan said, "You did the same thing in Africa and deceived the British!"

Rommel couldn't help but nodded when he heard this, and then laughed self-deprecatingly: "I just didn't expect the British to learn so quickly!"

The two couldn't help but laugh.

After a pause, Rommel said: "Then those three spies... must have been incited to rebel!"

Qin Chuan handed over the information of the three spies, and then said: "They went to the UK through the identities of neutral countries, and several of them have been operating in neutral countries for several years. The identity should not be a problem. The problem is... Britain Their intelligence network has long been spread in neutral countries, and they may have been targeted by British intelligence agents before they were sent to the UK! "

Although Qin Chuan knew that this was not the case, he could only explain it this way.

Rommel agreed.

Because British and German intelligence personnel were indeed engaged in various overt and covert battles in neutral countries, and German intelligence personnel were obviously at a disadvantage.

After what Qin Chuan said, Rommel obviously regained his confidence. He flipped through the documents and said: "But the more important problem is... we have no evidence. Only with conclusive evidence can we convince them!"

"I want to know if we have any submarines in the North Sea!" Qin Chuan said.

"Submarine?" Rommel replied: "Of course, we have always attacked British transport ships! But now it is getting more and more difficult...Why do you ask about submarines?"

"If time permits!" Qin Chuan said: "I'm wondering if we can let the submarine send a small team to Scotland to conduct reconnaissance, I mean the 4th Army!"

Rommel thought for a while, then stood up and said to Colonel Schuster: "Contact the Navy immediately!"

Qin Chuan was gambling on his luck.

He was betting not just on whether there were submarines in the North Sea, but also on whether the submarines were close enough to the Scottish coast.

The reason is that Qin Chuan also knows the existence of British "super secrets".

But on the one hand, "Super Secret" does not decrypt every secret message it monitors. If this is the case, it may not be able to decipher all the secret messages even if it is turned on all day long.

So, it definitely has priorities.

For example, the telegram sent to Hitler, and the transmission of secret messages in France at this time.

Telegrams to and from the Navy should be of lower priority.

On the other hand, it takes time for these secret messages to be monitored, summarized, and then sent to "super secrets."

Qin Chuan estimated that it might take several days to decipher with this level of priority... The secret message with Hitler was the highest priority. As mentioned before, when Rommel was fighting the Allies in Africa, Hitler sent Rommel Before your telegram could reach Rommel, Churchill already knew the content.

(Note: Rommel often commanded operations on the front line, and it took time for the telegram to reach him)

But it is precisely because of this that other telegrams are more likely to be ignored.

That is to say, the submarine may have a few days.

Of course, these are just Qin Chuan's guesses. Although Qin Chuan knows the "super secret", he knows nothing else. If there is anything else... it is to know that it is the most primitive computer.

But now Qin Chuan seems to have to try his luck.

Luckily, Rommel took a telegram and said to Qin Chuan excitedly: "We happen to have a submarine near Edinburgh, only two hours away, but it must wait until dark to act!"

Qin Chuan looked at the watch. It was still an hour away from dark...that is to say, the scouts of the German submarine may only need three to five hours to go ashore and conduct reconnaissance on the 4th Army in Edinburgh, Scotland.

The situation is much better than Qin Chuan expected, which can be regarded as a surprise.

But as the saying goes, "Man proposes, God disposes", who knows what the result of this reconnaissance operation will be?
