It took less than three hours from the discovery of the body to the briefcase being taken away by the British consulate.

At first glance, it was a very common thing. When the body was found, Spain did what a neutral country should do, and returned the body and briefcase to the UK.

But there is a tide in it...

Of course the briefcase was opened, but it was opened carefully without any trace. The reason was that Spain was a neutral country and should not participate in any intelligence or military-related events between the belligerent countries. The contents in this briefcase were obviously of intelligence value, and the problem was just the size of the value.

After opening the briefcase, the people at the Spanish Navy Office were shocked when they saw the content, because one of the documents revealed that the British attack on Sicily was just a feint, and its real goal was to attack Greece and then attack Romania and attack Italy in the north... This was almost exactly the same as what the generals in Rommel's command analyzed.

The staff of the Spanish office hurriedly reported to the Navy Command.

Because considering that delaying time will arouse suspicion from the British consulate... As mentioned before, if the British side realizes that the briefcase has been opened, the information will lose its value, because the UK will change its combat plan, so its offensive target will be undetermined.

So the Navy Command made a quick decision and ordered the British consulate to notify the documents in the briefcase, including shooting the bodies and the things they carried with them in their clothes.

The people in the British Consulate knew nothing about these things, but in fact they did know nothing about them... because they didn't know that this was a trap set by the British MI5 for the Germans. They just received news from the British military: "We must strictly keep the secret of the briefcase and get the briefcase as soon as possible!"

Therefore, the performance of the British Consulate is real.

At the same time, because they are not professional intelligence personnel, they cannot see any flaws during acceptance and do not know that the briefcase has been opened.

When the briefcase was handed over to MI5, the intelligence personnel carefully opened the most important document... and found that the little black powder left on the page had disappeared, so they knew that their plan had been half successful.

Some of the details are so thorough that it is hard to believe.

For example, the MI5 chose Spain because they knew that although Spain was an ostensibly neutral country, because Hitler helped the Spanish head of state Franco win during the Spanish Civil War (1936 to 1939), Spain has always maintained friendly relations with Germany, and once major intelligence is discovered, it will definitely report it to Germany secretly.

The town of Huelva was chosen because there were many German spies here, as well as British spies, which not only helped Germany obtain intelligence but also helped Britain to know the progress of things.

In order not to discover anything in order to prevent the autopsy from going too thoroughly, the MI5 people hung a St. Christopher amulet on the body so that the Spaniards mistakenly thought that the unfortunate Major Martin was a Catholic.

The Spanish are Catholics. Based on their respect for religion, they are unwilling to "disturb" him too much. After a hurry check, they were buried... The corpse found by the British MI5 died of rat poison poisoning. This homeless man was probably because he was starved and accidentally ate the poisoned rat while looking for food. (Note: This is different from the death from pneumonia uploaded on the Internet, and there is water accumulation in the lungs)

The reason why it was named "Martin" was because German spies had mastered the list of almost all naval officers starting from letters A to L, and "Martin" started from M.

...

Other things are forging Major Martin's life, such as having a newly engaged fiancée, a bank overdraft order, etc., which are relatively simple.

The people of MI5 made everything without any leakage, so the intelligence was soon as they imagined. The Spanish disclosed the intelligence to the Germans, and the Germans sent the information to Berlin as if they had found a treasure... The German intelligence department even believed that the British did not realize that the information had been leaked, so the intelligence was valuable, that is, the British would continue to follow these plans.

Of course Qin Chuan didn't know these at this time... In fact, he had known these for a long time. He even knew that the MI5 secrets revealed several flaws in the operation, but these flaws were ignored by the German intelligence agencies for various reasons.

From this point of view, the German intelligence service is much younger than the old intelligence country of Britain.

Qin Chuan was staring at the "rumble" drilling... Yesterday he had heard Professor Buckhouse say that Well No. 3 had already reached 2,100 meters due to the smooth process.

The depth was almost at the point where the oil was poured, which made Qin Chuan a little nervous. He couldn't help but think: What if he remembered wrongly? Or what if there was an accident that didn't get oil?

If oil was not found, then the layout of Algeria can be said to be completely destroyed, and even attracted a large number of Allied troops to increase troops in North Africa... The African Legion is now facing at least four or five times its strength, and the number of Allied fighter jets and bombers has also increased sharply to more than one thousand, which has reached an overwhelming numerical advantage.

At this moment, the drill rod slowly rose, and then the drill rod was removed one by one.

"What happened?" Qin Chuan asked.

"It's time to change the drill, Captain!" Hans, with a muddy face, replied.

Qin Chuan shook his head and sighed that it was so good that he had changed the drill bit at this time... But Hans and others didn't know that the oil was about to be fed, so it was understandable.

The drill rod is usually about nine meters per section, and more than two hundred drill rods are more than two hundred drill rods over two thousand meters. When replacing the drill bit, you need to lift it while disassembling it. After installing the drill bit, you can lower it while installing it. The whole process takes at least a few hours.

So Qin Chuan leaned on the lounge chair with great intrigue and covered his face with newspaper to cover his face with sunlight for a nap.

I don’t know how long it took, Qin Chuan heard Hans’ surprise scream in a daze: “Professor, you should come and have a look!”

Qin Chuan woke up in a daze and saw the exploration members gathering towards Well No. 3 from all directions. Qin Chuan seemed to realize something, and as soon as he gulp, he turned over and stood up and walked towards Well No. 3.

"Captain!" Colonel Buckhouse looked at Qin Chuan, who was walking towards him, and said, "We are lucky!"

"This is a sand-containing oil layer, Captain!" Hans explained excitedly: "The oil is full and the smell is strong, which means we are not far from the oil field!"

"Are you sure?" Qin Chuan looked at Professor Buckhouse.

Professor Buckhouse nodded and answered with certainty: "Yes, I'm sure!"
