After Daniel returned to the headquarters from the 334th Regiment, he excitedly reported to Sokov: "Comrade Commander, the fish is hooked."
Sidorin was also very happy after hearing this. He looked at Sokov and asked: "Comrade Commander, can we hand over the false information to the other party tonight?"
"Not yet, the time is not ripe." Sokov said briefly: "Although they have verified today that they can confirm that the defense map provided to them by Second Lieutenant Daniel is true, they will not have absolute influence on Second Lieutenant Daniel.
trust."
"So, I don't have to go tonight, right?"
"No, you are going." Sokov said to Daniel: "But the purpose of your going tonight is not to provide them with new information, but to collect money from them."
"Collect money?!"
"Yes," Sokov nodded and said, "You have to pretend to be greedy for money, so that they will truly believe that you can sell any information they need for money."
"Well, after I go there tonight, I will ask them for money directly."
"In order to prevent the other party from jumping over the wall, when you go tonight, take two people with you." Sokov turned and asked Koshkin, who was standing next to him: "Koshkin, do you have anyone you can trust?"
"Yes, Comrade Commander." Koshkin nodded: "There are several soldiers from the Ministry of Internal Affairs who are very reliable."
"You pick two of them who are skilled and go with Second Lieutenant Daniel to Germon's house tonight to be responsible for protecting his safety."
Koshkin was always unambiguous about Sokov's orders. He agreed and went out to select people.
Seeing that Sokov was preparing to arrange two members of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for him, Daniel couldn't help but feel a little in his heart, secretly saying that it seems that the commander still doesn't trust me, otherwise why would he send two members of the Ministry of Internal Affairs to follow him? It is estimated that these two people are not only
In order to protect themselves, sometimes they will also silence themselves.
Thinking of this, Daniel's body trembled unconsciously.
When Sokov saw this, he did not say anything, but said to Ponejelin and Sidorin: "The reason why I assigned two people to Second Lieutenant Daniel is because after gaining Henrik's complete trust, I need to
Someone took action to get rid of Dobzharsky."
After Sokov explained this, Ponejelin and Sidorin nodded in agreement, and Daniel felt relieved. He remembered the agreement between himself and Henrik, which was to find a way to get rid of Dobzas.
base, and then give all the credit to Henrik.
After Sokov noticed that Daniel's mood had stabilized, he turned to him and said: "Comrade Second Lieutenant, according to our surveillance post report, when you left the home of the head of Jiemen Village yesterday, someone went up to the attic and passed through the window.
Watch your every move."
When Daniel heard this, he couldn't help but feel shocked: "The person who came to meet me outside the village was also seen by the Jiemen family?"
"Yes, they must have been seen." Sokov said: "So if you take two people to Jiemon's house tonight, you will not arouse their suspicion. On the contrary, it will give them the illusion that
You are not a person, but a group of people. Even if they have any thoughts about you, they can only put it away obediently."
Originally, Ponejelin felt that Sokov suddenly arranged two deputies for Daniel, and even went to Jiemon's house tonight to collect debts, but now it seems that this can be regarded as Sokov's careful consideration. After all, yesterday
When Daniel met with the soldiers outside the village in the evening, he was discovered by someone hiding in the attic. If he went alone tonight, it would inevitably arouse the other party's suspicion.
Koshkin came in from the outside with two soldiers and reported to Sokov: "Comrade Commander, I have brought someone here." Then he began to introduce his subordinates, "This is Staff Sergeant Femi.
He once worked in the Ministry of Internal Affairs for three years; this is Corporal Reimer, who has worked in the Ministry of Internal Affairs for a longer period of time, but due to the special tasks he performed, there was no chance of promotion at all, so he still has the rank of corporal until now."
"Corporal Remo," Sokov said with emotion when he heard that Remo performed a special mission. Such people paid a lot but got very little, so that after working in the Ministry of Internal Affairs for so many years, they could barely become a corporal.
, so he said to Remo: "When this operation is over, I will promote you to sergeant."
When Remer heard Sokov said that he wanted to be promoted to his military rank, his face showed a joyful expression: "Comrade Commander, thank you very much."
"You're welcome, you deserve this." Then he announced to the two of them: "Senior Sergeant Fermi, Corporal Reimer, from now on, you two accept the command of Second Lieutenant Daniel. Follow him tonight to perform a mission
All tasks and all actions are under his command."
"Yes!" The two agreed loudly.
After dark, Daniel showed up at Germon's house with Femi and Remo.
Jiemen saw that Daniel, who had always been alone, actually brought two soldiers with live ammunition today. He couldn't help but trembled and asked in a panic: "Mr. Second Lieutenant, you came here tonight, why did you bring two soldiers with you?"
Personally?"
Daniel snorted coldly and said: "It's not peaceful outside recently. I'm worried that I will be shot in the dark one day, so I bring two people with me to feel more at ease."
Jamon heard the hidden meaning of Daniel's words and couldn't help but trembled, but he still forced himself to be calm and said: "Mr. Second Lieutenant, look at what you said, this is your territory now, who dares to shoot you?"
"It is precisely because this is our territory that some shady villains will hide behind and shoot at me. So I bring two people with me, so that even if I encounter any danger, I can escape as soon as possible." Daniel
After saying this, he asked directly: "Where is your son?"
"Here, at home." Jiemeng greeted quickly: "You three, please come in. We are having dinner. If you don't mind, you might as well eat something together."
On the way here, Daniel told Femi and Remo that after arriving at Jiemeng's house, they can eat as much as they want. Now that Jiemeng invited the three of them to come in for dinner, they were naturally not polite. After entering the room,
, and sat directly on the dining table.
Henrik, who was staying in the house, heard something moving outside and knew that Daniel was coming, so he hurriedly walked out of the house. But when he came out and took a look, he found that besides Daniel, there were two more strangers in the house.
The man asked with some surprise: "Mr. Second Lieutenant, who are they and what are they doing here?"
"Henrik, let me introduce you. This is Staff Sergeant Fermi and that is Corporal Reimer. They are all my subordinates and they are not outsiders." Daniel said carelessly: "They are worried about my safety.
So you came with me tonight."
Henrik didn't expect that Daniel would bring someone to his home, which meant that he had no chance to get rid of Daniel. If he had any more thoughts about him, the two soldiers around him could tear him apart.
into pieces.
He hurriedly said with a smile: "Mr. Second Lieutenant, look at what you said, your life safety cannot be guaranteed in our home? You are really worrying too much."
"I hope I'm over-worrying," Daniel said, "but when I come to deliver information in the future, the two of them will follow me every step of the way to avoid any accidents happening to me."
"That's okay." Upon hearing this, Henrik knew that when Daniel appeared in front of him again, he would no longer be alone and would be accompanied by these two soldiers. He nodded quickly and said: "As long as you are willing,
It’s completely okay to have two people with you at any time.”
"If I guessed correctly the defense map I gave you yesterday, you must have verified it, right?" Daniel picked up the teapot on the table, poured a cup of tea into his cup, and then asked
: "How about it? Is there anything wrong with the defense map I gave you?"
"No problem, no problem." Although Henrik and Dobzhaski went to the defense area of the 334th Regiment today and were unable to enter some key areas, they conducted careful reconnaissance on the areas where they could move and found that they were indeed consistent with the defense map.
The situation above was consistent. In this way, they naturally knew in their hearts that the defense map Daniel gave them was true and reliable. "Mr. Second Lieutenant, this is just a regiment's defense map. I wonder when you can get division-level units."
Where’s the defense map?”
Daniel waited for Henrik to finish speaking, and immediately stretched out his hand to him: "Pay the eight hundred dollars you owe first, and we will discuss the next cooperation."
"Mr. Second Lieutenant, please wait a moment, I'll be right back." Henrik said, got up and walked towards the house. Of course, he was not going to get a gun, but to get money. There were three soldiers with live ammunition outside, two of them
He was carrying a submachine gun and didn't put it beside him even when he was eating. He only had a pistol. How could he be their opponent?
After going to the defense area of the 334th Regiment to check the terrain today, Henrik sent the information through the radio. After the Germans received the information, they promised to send the money as soon as possible, but it has not yet been delivered. Fortunately, Dobzhaski said
He still had some US dollars at home, so he temporarily lent it to Henrik and asked him to give it to Daniel first in order to obtain more information.
Henrik took out the money Dobzharski lent him from the house, walked out of the room with it, and placed it in front of Daniel: "Mr. Second Lieutenant, this is the final payment we promised. I hope you can provide us with more money."
What useful information.”
"This is natural. As long as you have money, there will definitely be more information provided to you continuously." Daniel picked up a ten-dollar bill, looked at the light, and said: "Henryk, you
You won’t use counterfeit money to deal with me, right?”
"How could this be possible?" Henrik said with a smile: "How could I deceive you with counterfeit money?"
"As long as it's not counterfeit banknotes." Daniel snorted coldly, and then stuffed the banknotes into the satchel he was carrying: "If I find a counterfeit banknote inside, then our cooperation will be completely over."
"Mr. Second Lieutenant," Henrik asked tentatively after Daniel put all the banknotes in his satchel, "I want to get the overall defense map of the 48th Group Army. Is there any way you can get it?"
"It's not that easy to get the defense map of the entire 48th Group Army."
"Can you get it?" Henrik asked impatiently: "What the Germans need most now is the defense map of the entire 48th Group Army."
"Although it is difficult to obtain the defense map of the entire army group," Daniel said, "if you find someone to help, it shouldn't be a big problem, but..."
Hearing that Daniel's words stopped abruptly in the middle of his words, Henrik became anxious: "But what?"
"The importance of this information is much greater than yesterday's, so it is impossible to sell it to you at yesterday's price." Daniel said slowly: "You have to pay more!"
If Daniel proposed other conditions, Henrik might still feel embarrassed, but when it comes to the price of intelligence rising, this would not be a big problem for him. After all, what they want to obtain is the defense map of the entire army group.
If the German army wants to obtain this information, it is still acceptable to increase the reward appropriately.
Thinking of this, Henrik asked tentatively: "Mr. Second Lieutenant, I wonder how much money you plan to ask for?"
Daniel looked at Henrik, sneered, and stretched out a finger to indicate the price he wanted.
Henrik saw Daniel's outstretched finger, hesitated for a moment, and then asked cautiously: "Ten thousand dollars?"
"No." Henrik shook his head and said, "Ten thousand pounds!"
"What, 10,000 pounds?!" Facing Daniel, who opened his mouth widely, Henrik was dumbfounded. According to today's exchange rate, 10,000 pounds is equivalent to 40,000 U.S. dollars: "You want 40,000 U.S. dollars for a piece of information?"
"If you think it's too expensive, then find someone else." Before Daniel came here, Sokov once taught him the trick of "play hard to get". If he left with an excuse after making his own request, the other party would definitely not be able to offer so much.
Money, such a reply adds fuel to the fire.
After saying that, he pushed the tea cup in front of him, stood up and said to Fermi and Remo: "Let's go!"
When Daniel led Femi and Remo outside, he kept saying in his mind: "Hurry up and tell me to stop, hurry up and tell me to stop."
As soon as the three of them walked to the door, Reimer stepped forward and grabbed the door handle. Just as he was about to open it, he heard Henrik's voice from behind: "Mr. Second Lieutenant, if you can really get the 48th
I am willing to give you 10,000 pounds for the army's defense and troop distribution map."
"That's right." Seeing that the other party took the initiative to give in, Daniel couldn't help but feel ecstatic. He turned around, took Femi and Remo back to the table and sat down again. He stared at Henrik and asked, "I don't know.
When are you going to pay me £10,000?"
"Mr. Second Lieutenant, the amount you need is too large, and I'm afraid it won't be delivered right away." Henrik said with a smile: "But don't worry, as long as I send the telegram to the Germans, they will deliver what we need as soon as possible.
Bring the things over."
"Let's do this." Daniel felt that he should take the initiative in his own hands, so he did not take Henrik's words, but said to himself: "I'll come back tomorrow night, and I hope I can hand over the money then.
First-hand delivery, otherwise there will be no need for us to continue to cooperate in the future.”
"Mr. Second Lieutenant, you will ask for 10,000 pounds tomorrow night, which may be a bit difficult." Henrik said with a bitter face: "Can you give us a few days of grace? Don't worry, once the Germans feel that the information is worth the money, they will definitely provide it as soon as possible.
I arranged for someone to send the money over."
"What, the Germans will not pay me until they think my information is worth ten thousand pounds." Daniel said angrily: "What if the Germans say that the information I provided is false information and refuse to pay?
