Daniel returned to the headquarters and gave a detailed report to Sokov, Ponedelin and Sidorin about what happened at Germon's house.
After listening, Ponedelin looked at Sokov and said: "Comrade Commander, the enemy has taken the bait. It seems that we can let Second Lieutenant Daniel provide false information to the enemy, so that they will misjudge our defense situation."
"Comrade Deputy Commander, I don't think things are that simple." But Sokov shook his head after hearing this and said: "Although Daniel successfully gained Henrik's trust, if he rashly gives out a piece of intelligence, I'm afraid the other party will also
I won’t completely believe it. If they see through our plan, I’m worried that Second Lieutenant Daniel will be in danger.”
Hearing Sokov's words, Daniel felt quite grateful. He quickly expressed his stance: "Comrade Commander, I am not afraid of danger. As long as I can complete the mission, it is worth sacrificing my life."
"Second Lieutenant Daniel," Sokov looked at Daniel and said seriously: "Although the task I assigned you has certain dangers, I hope you can complete the task alive and get the honor you deserve. Do you understand?
?”
"Understood, Comrade Commander." Although they were a few words of understatement, Daniel still felt that his nose was sore and tears almost came to his eyes. "Thank you for your kindness!"
"Comrade Commander," Seeing that Sokov did not agree to provide false information to Henrik and others at this moment, Sidorin asked tentatively: "Are you really not going to provide false information to the other party?"
"Yes, Comrade Chief of Staff, the time is not yet ripe to provide false information." Sokov said to Sidorin: "Although Henrik and Daniel have reached a consensus, he must still have doubts in his heart.
If we provide him with false information in a hurry, it is very likely that he will be betrayed."
Ponedelin heard the hidden meaning behind Sokov's words: "Are you providing them with real information?"
"I think I can provide them with a piece of real intelligence." Sokov said to Sidorin: "Later, give Lieutenant Daniel a defense plan of the 334th Regiment of the 120th Guards Division and ask him to give it to him.
Information forwarded to Henrik."
Sidorin quickly found the defense map of the 334th Regiment, and before handing it to Sokov, he asked: "Don't you need to modify it?"
"No need." Sokov shook his head and said, "We just need a real map so that we can deceive the enemy." In order to let the other party understand what he meant, he also emphasized that "the defense area of the 334th Regiment is not far from the village.
According to my judgment, after Henrik gets the information, he will definitely find a way to verify it. If we modify the defense blueprints, once he finds something wrong, he will understand that this is our strategy."
"I understand, Comrade Commander." After Sokov's explanation, Sidorin immediately understood his intention: "Henryk will definitely verify the information after he gets this information. Once he finds out that Lieutenant Daniel gave him
If the defense plan is true, then no matter how much false information is given to him in the future, he will believe it to be true."
"Yes, yes, Comrade Chief of Staff, that's what I mean." Sokov nodded, confirming Sidorin's statement, but then he expressed his worries: "But this time the Germans sent
There are two people spying on the information. Although Henrik has connected with us, what should we do if the person who has the final word is not him, but Dobzharsky, Odzhansky's son?"
"Comrade Commander, you don't have to worry about this." Daniel interjected: "According to my observations of Henrik, he seems to be dissatisfied with his brother-in-law and wants to climb on top of him in his dreams. This time he
He took the initiative to contact me because he wanted to get rid of the shadow of his brother-in-law and become a person valued by the Germans. Therefore, he also reached an agreement with me. At the appropriate time, he would lead his brother-in-law outside the village and let me bring him to the outside of the village.
It's solved."
"Without further delay, this matter requires immediate action." Sokov asked Daniel: "Lieutenant Daniel, did you say when you would go to Jermon's house again?"
Daniel nodded and replied: "I said I would go again tonight, but I haven't decided when."
"It's winter now, and it gets dark early. I see you go to his house at six o'clock, and you can have a meal by the way." Sokov said jokingly: "The food at the home of Chief Jermon is pretty good."
Ponjelin also had dinner at Germon's house. Hearing Sokov's words, he immediately burst into laughter.
Just like that, just after six o'clock, Daniel appeared at Germon's house again.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw that Germon's family was having dinner. He was not polite and directly found a seat to sit down. Looking at Henrik opposite, he asked carelessly: "Henryk, what do your superiors say, are they willing?"
What conditions are you offering me?"
Henrik once sneaked out of the village in the afternoon and sent a telegram to the Germans over the radio, reporting Daniel's intention to provide intelligence. Finally, he also reported to the other party that Second Lieutenant Daniel needed to receive benefits.
Will provide useful information.
At first, the Germans who received the telegram were suspicious of Daniel, but when they heard that he actually put forward conditions and needed benefits in exchange for information, they suddenly felt at ease. You know, as long as the other party is willing to make conditions, it proves that he can provide it.
The intelligence was true. Therefore, after some discussions, the Germans came up with several countermeasures.
At this moment, Henrik heard Daniel's question and said with a smile: "Mr. Second Lieutenant, if you provide us with information, we can pay you a certain amount of compensation."
"I don't know what the reward you mentioned is used to pay?" Daniel asked.
"We can pay you in marks or zlotys..."
Unexpectedly, before Henrik finished speaking, he was interrupted by Daniel: "Wait a minute, Henrik. Now that the Germans are losing ground on the battlefield, how long do you think their Mark can be used? I'm worried about it.
How long will it take for the mark to become a pile of waste paper? There is also the Polish currency zloty. The word means 'gold' in Polish, but do you think it is really worth gold? You know, the Polish Parliament
The government was established in Lublin a few months ago, and I believe that after they take control of the overall situation, the zlotys used today will also become a pile of waste paper."
Seeing that Daniel was not interested in marks or zlotys, Henrik couldn't help but have a headache: "Mr. Second Lieutenant, please tell me, what currency do you want?"
"Today's hard currencies, besides gold, are US dollars and British pounds." Daniel leaned back, leaned his head on the back of the chair, crossed his legs, and said coldly: "Unless you use these to pay me, you
Don't expect to get any information from me."
Even though the conditions proposed by Daniel were very harsh, the Germans had planned it. After organizing the vocabulary in his mind, Henrik said: "Mr. Second Lieutenant, it is not realistic to give you gold. That thing is too heavy.
And it’s not easy to circulate. I think it’s more appropriate to pay you in dollars or pounds. I wonder what you think?”
Daniel pretended to think about it for a while, then nodded and said helplessly: "Okay, then pay in dollars or pounds."
Henrik stretched out a finger and said: "The current exchange rate between the British pound and the U.S. dollar is 4:1, which means that each piece of information you provide is worth 1,000 U.S. dollars or 250 British pounds."
After listening to Henrik's quotation, Daniel nodded and said, "This price is very reasonable. If I provide you with information now, when will I get the money?"
"It will take two days at the earliest."
"No, two days is too long." Daniel shook his head and said, "I want to pay with one hand and deliver the goods with the other."
In order to increase his persuasion, he took out the square-shaped defense map, slapped it directly on the table, and said to Henrik: "This is the defense map of a regiment under the 120th Guards Division. I want to
Pay the money in one hand and deliver the goods in the other hand.”
Henrik had just reached an agreement with his German superiors on the amount of remuneration not long ago. He did not receive the money provided by the other party at all. How could he hand over the money and deliver the goods at the same time? His eyes were fixed on the table.
Looking at the square defense map, a bold idea came to my mind: as long as I killed the Russians on the opposite side, this information would be my own, and I would still have a lot of money left.
But his little trick was seen through by Daniel. Daniel returned the defense map to his pocket and said coldly: "Henrik, I remind you, don't have any evil intentions. I'm here.
, and two subordinates know it. If I don’t go out within the stipulated time, they will bring someone in to rescue me. When that time comes, I’m afraid I won’t be the one who suffers.”
Not to mention, Daniel's threatening words really had a certain effect. At least the idea of killing people to silence was gone in Henrik's mind. He smiled and said to Daniel: "Mr. Second Lieutenant, I just talked to my superior not long ago.
We have negotiated your remuneration through the phone. But now the money has not been sent, and I can't pay and deliver the goods. Otherwise, I still have some US dollars at home, not much, only two or three.
One hundred, just treat it as an advance payment. I will replenish the remaining money to you immediately after my boss sends someone to deliver it."
Seeing that his goal was achieved, Daniel took out the defense map again and placed it on the table, but he pressed his hand on the map without moving away. He looked at Henrik and said, "Where's the money?"
Although Henrik had no money on him, he knew that his father still had some foreign currency in his hand, so he turned to Germon and said, "Do you have any dollars or pounds at home?"
"some."
"Take it out quickly!"
To be honest, Jimon was not willing to give away his family's money to anyone, but he was worried that if he angered Daniel, his family would not be able to eat anything good. In desperation, he could only get up and go to the back room and take out the money from under the bed.
He opened a box, took out all the dollars in it, and walked out with it.
Henrik took the banknotes from Germon's hand, counted them, then placed them in front of Daniel, and said: "Mr. Second Lieutenant, here are two hundred US dollars, which should be regarded as a deposit. The remaining money will be paid together in two days."
you."
Daniel grabbed the banknotes and pushed the defense map in front of Henrik: "This defense map is yours, but don't forget to give me the rest of the money as soon as possible."
After saying that, he began to count the banknotes. After counting, he nodded and said, "Yes, it is indeed two hundred US dollars." After that, he stood up and walked outside.
Watching Daniel leave, Jermont said with some heartache: "Son, this is the money I have saved for several years, and I just gave it to him for nothing?"
"We'll talk about this later." Henrik said to Germon: "I'll go to the attic to do something first."
Henrik climbed up to the attic, picked up a telescope, and stared at Daniel as he left, trying to figure out whether the other person was one person or several people.
Daniel was indeed alone in the village. But as soon as he left the village, two men emerged from the nearby snowdrift. These were soldiers arranged by Sokov to protect him. But Henry in the attic
How did Rick know? He thought that these two men were really Daniel's subordinates, and believed a little more what Daniel just said.
Jermont, who was waiting downstairs, saw his son coming down from the attic. He quickly walked over and said to him: "If the information he provided is false, wouldn't our money have been wasted?"
"I just saw it in the attic," Henrik ignored his father and said to himself: "As soon as Second Lieutenant Daniel walked out of the village, someone came to pick him up. In other words, even if we just started,
If he is silenced, I am afraid that this information will not reach the hands of the Germans, and his subordinates will rush in to avenge him. By then, no one in our family will survive."
Henrik's words shocked Jermon. He originally thought that Daniel was trying to scare people by saying he had a back-up plan, but he didn't expect it to be true. He thought that if he had really attacked Daniel just now, no matter whether he could succeed or not,
, at this moment the other party's subordinates should have rushed into the house and killed his family first.
However, when he thought that the money he had worked hard to save for several years was given to others in vain, Jiemen still felt a burst of heartache. He began to regret that he had nothing to do with providing information to the Germans, but he did not get any benefits.
, I also invested a lot of money into it.
Fortunately, Henrik saw what Germon was worried about and quickly comforted him and said: "Don't worry, as long as I confirm the authenticity of this information and send it to the Germans, the Germans will send someone to send me the money."
.At that time, not only can you get back the two hundred dollars you took out, but you can even get more money."
While he was happy, Jimon was worried about something again. He looked at his son and said: "The information this Second Lieutenant Daniel gave you is not false, is it?"
Henrik unfolded the defense map and took a look at it, and then said: "Judging from this defense map, it is not far from our village. I will go there tomorrow to see if this information is true or false."
Although Henrik had already said this, Germon's heart was still full of anxiety: "If this information is false, we won't get our money back."
"Don't worry." A fierce light flashed in Henrik's eyes, "It doesn't matter if this defense map is real. If it is fake, I will never spare that Second Lieutenant Daniel and let him know that my
Money is not that easy to come by.”
"He has a gun in his hand." Jamon said: "If we make him angry, I'm afraid it will be difficult for him in the future."
"You don't have to worry about this." Henrik said carelessly: "If it doesn't work out, our whole family will move to the Germans. You and your sister have not been together for such a long time. You must miss her very much."
