.The Third Reich under Ten Thousand Characters  Volume 5: Battle of Britain  Chapter 18: Traitors (II)

Unpredictable things finally happened

As we all know, Canaris is the orthodox head of the German Intelligence Agency. In the eyes of the world (perhaps it should be said that in the eyes of Canaris and most conservatives), Heidrich is just a playboy. He relies on flattery and extremely sensitive political sense to climb to the high speculation points.

Before joining the SS, Heidrich was a German Navy officer and served on the cruiser Berlin in Canaris. Because Heidrich is very talented in music and looks majestic, Canaris soon discovered Heidrich's existence. Canaris's wife is a music lover. Canaris appreciates Heidrich's musical talent and often invites Heidrich to his home to attend his wife's family music salon.

Heidrich's musical talent is indeed surprising. The violin he plays is often obsessed with. As the frequency of contact increases, the friendship between Heidrich and Canaris gradually heats up. Heidrich relies on this relationship and strictly abides by discipline in the navy, and makes rapid progress. In 192, he became a trainee, and was promoted to a second lieutenant. He can be said to be a steward and abide by the sky!

However, an unexpected encounter happened at this time. Heidrich saved two girls in a rowing exercise. One of them was named Lina Mathildevon Mosten, a blond and blue-eyed girl with very beautiful appearance. The two fell in love at first sight, and they got engaged on the 9th despite Lina's father's objection.

However, Lena was just one of the perverted Hedrich huntings. Shortly after they got engaged, the daughter of a senior officer from the Hamburg Arms Factory came to her house and wanted to marry him. There were many people talking about this at the time, but most people thought that Hedrich wanted to take the girl as his lover, and took the opportunity to get her drunk with wine, and then raped her.

Heidrich cut off a relationship with a naval officer on the grounds that she could not marry a frivolous girl. But the girl was dissatisfied and her father sued Admiral Erich Redel, the head of the naval leadership.

Redell summoned Heidrich and persuaded him to give up Lena and reconcile with the girl. Heidrich refused. As a result, he was fired from the Navy and then a very decadent life. He joined the Navy Storm and then joined the SS under the persuasion of his fiancee. He was appreciated by Slime as the acting director of the Security Department of the SS Intelligence Organization (During that time, Slime personally served as the director, but ignored his work, and was all under Heidrich). From that day on, Heidrich began his spy career...

Canaris served as the head of the National Defense Forces Intelligence Agency. At that time, the Gestapo, chaired by Heidrich, was in the prime of his life. He was invincible in Germany and no one could compete with him. With his relationship with Heidrich in his early years, Canaris successfully maintained the position of the Military Intelligence Agency, and the two had always maintained good private relationships.

Later, Heidrich was promoted to Imperial Minister of Security and also served as the leader of the SS Gestapo. He continued to be in charge of the intelligence agency in the SS system, and Karnaris and Heidrich inevitably had differences.

Canaris is low-key and unwilling to be clear. He does not want Germany to launch a war in his bones and rejects Germany's comprehensive war policy. He believes that this war will push Germany into the abyss of nowhere, and begins to slacke in intentional or unintentional, and deliberately conceal some intelligence. Going downwards instill some information that is not conducive to supporting the war, and once released some information about the strategic deployment of the German army to the allies. Take Spain as an example. Canaris once presided over the collection of intelligence in Spain and was familiar with the Spanish leader Flanger. In private, Canaris persuaded Spain more than once that it should not join the war, which shocked Flanger, and this made the next thing happen.

Now, Heidrich's Internal Affairs Department has collected some reports on Kanashi's behavior, confirming from various information that Canaris sells national interests more than once, whether intentionally or unintentionally, and expressed disagreement at private gatherings several times that the war continues to expand.

Many people have the impression of Heidrich that he is an extremely cold-blooded and cruel person who is willing to sacrifice anyone to climb up in order to do his best. Perhaps this statement is correct, but Heidrich took different measures when dealing with Canaris. The violent organization he did not have directly collapsed the anti-war alliance composed of some anti-war officers and social figures, but instead sent people to disguise themselves as anti-war people to join the anti-war alliance. As more information was excavated, it became more and more difficult for him to believe that his friends would be one of the main leaders of the anti-war alliance.

In the later French battle, Heidrich's Gestapo department seized drawings of the French Intelligence Agency's Enigma prototype and Bom machine. This discovery made Heidrich deeply angry and shocked. The Enigma machine was originally invented by a Dutch named Hugokoch. In 2018, he obtained the patent for this secret writing machine. It was originally used by companies that wanted to deal with competitors and keep their business secrets, but it was not lucky in the business world. Later, Germany**

The intelligence personnel modified it into a military type, making it more complex and reliable. The German Navy began to use the Enigma in 2011 and the Army began to use it in 2011. It was once one of the most frequently used transmitters by the German army. Colonel Erich Fergibel, the chief communications officer of the commander-in-chief, decided that Enigma would become a perfect communication device to serve the new blitzing tactics of the German Wehrmacht. From then on, the German Supreme Command and its subordinate armies, divisions, as well as the air, navy, SS and other state institutions.

The secret communication between them is encrypted by the machine. The Nigma password machine looks very much like an old-fashioned office typewriter. There is an ordinary keyboard at the front. When the operator touches a key on the keyboard, the square of the typewriter's word key is the flat surface of another letter that flashes light. For example, typing a letter, another different letter, for example, flashing on the upper end of the machine. The operation process is that the password holder presses the letter key, and the circuit passes through the rotor along the curved and agnostic line.

, then hit the reflector, and then go back along different lines through the rotor line, and letters flash on the machine. The rotor line is extremely complex and cannot be analyzed. In addition, one, several or all rotors can be changed at any time, and the electronic circuits will also be completely changed. There is also a set of plugs in the front of the machine, which can also be changed at will, thereby changing each circuit again. Each rotor can generate more than ten thousand letter combinations. The transformation of the line and the adjustment of the rotor can increase these letter combinations to astronomical numbers.

The message translated into a password can be sent to a telegrapher with the same machine through various means, and the radio sends the message the fastest. If the receiver adjusts the rotor and plug of the machine to a position like the sending machine (called the adjustment machine), as long as he types the password, the above-mentioned sending process can be reversed, that is, press the letter on the keyboard, and the original letter can be flashed on the upper part of the machine. This requires that the sender and the receiver have a key setting specified in the key setting, detachment of this secret power requires a try to combine the rotor and the plug!

The Enigma cipher machine is sturdy and easy to carry, and the smallest unit of the Army can use it. It is absolutely reliable because the best mathematicians also need to intercept a large number of messages and conduct weeks of research before they can decipher a password. By then, the information obtained is worthless. Just adjust the rotor and the plug, and the machine can instantly generate countless different passwords. Due to the complex performance of the machine, it doesn't matter even if it is captured by the enemy, because unless he understands the infinitely changing adjustment procedures, the machine is useless.

Despite this, the German intelligence department took various measures to prevent it from falling into the hands of the enemy. However, now it has seized the Aenegma cipher machine that is considered to be well-protected from the French front. What does this mean? It shows that there is a problem inside, causing this machine, which is considered to be absolutely confidential, to fall into the hands of the enemy, and someone betrays the country!

When Hedrich ordered the people outside the door to move the Enigma password machine and the machine device that was made by the Poles, all the generals, including Xu Yang, were stunned!

Hedrich didn't say much. He asked for instructions. After getting permission, he ordered the relevant developers waiting outside the door to come in and start fiddling with the machine, connecting Bom's installation device to Enigma, and then connecting the power supply.

"Hisser Leader, I ask you to send secret documents to the Ministry, please use the highest level of key!"

Xu Yang probably knew what Hedrich wanted to demonstrate. He looked at Canaris with a deep meaning, but found that Canaris' expression was very natural.

Heidrich's request was allowed, and a few minutes later, when Heidrich closed the switch, the motor buzzed and the drums turned. When the machine stopped, the light flashed to indicate that the key setting of a message was found. The generals in the conference room were stunned, and they could not believe that they had seen a decrypted message just sent by the Operations Department.

"Treasonists appeared inside the Imperial Intelligence Agency!" For a moment, everyone in the conference room had such thoughts.
Chapter completed!
