While the German Empire was discussing how complex the Spanish intelligence agencies were and how they felt threatened, they didn't know that the instigator was currently troubled by one thing.
And this trouble also comes from when he is tired of the threats from intelligence agencies.
Spain¡¯s Royal National Security Center is an intelligence agency representing the Spanish royal family. It is an agency specially established to protect the royal family and government agency officials. After years of development, it has developed to the point where it has developed overseas.
The Spanish National Security Intelligence Agency also claims to the outside world that it is domestic, but in fact it still involves foreign countries.
After that, the Cabinet Intelligence Division 1, Defense Intelligence Division 2, Diplomatic Intelligence Division 3, and Financial Intelligence Division 4 are all things that Spain has on the surface. Just like other countries, Spain also has its own hidden trump cards. Among them, there is the hand of the person standing next to him.
Jose is still the same as before, with a fair face and a body with very prominent water chestnuts, and the whole person looks extremely aggressive. However, sometimes if you are restrained, you will feel that the other person is like a teacher.
Not only does it make people feel harmless, but there is even a hint of respect. If such a person does not understand, he may actually be deceived. But unfortunately, it was when many people faced him that they realized over time that the other person was actually more like a hungry wolf.
"Your Majesty, that guy is very cunning. At this point, we don't seem to be in a position where we can directly capture him alive."
Jose said with a somewhat embarrassed expression. While he secretly hated his subordinates for being useless, he couldn't help but secretly sigh at the ability of this little guy who had never heard of it before. This guy actually allowed himself to set up a dragnet and escape in a gorgeous way. In this way, he couldn't help but start to worry, because other Spanish intelligence agencies were actually inferior to his own invisible secret intelligence agency. Even worse. If you can't do it yourself. So is it possible to do other things?
But more than anything, he was surprised that His Majesty was so eager to arrest such a small person. after all. This guy is not Spanish now. They are in England, but next to the Thames River. There are many British government agencies working there. However, now I was actually asked by His Majesty to send people there to arrest people blatantly. This makes me still not understand that there is something in it that others don't know. Could it be that there is some inside story here?
Unable to bear it, he asked unnaturally.
Alfonso nodded and said appreciatively: "That's right, because this guy is one of the current heads of the British intelligence agency."
"British intelligence chief?" Jose was shocked. He was actually arresting people right under the eyes of government officials next to the Thames River in London, England?
??And he is also the intelligence leader in his country? Oh my God, what am I doing? This sudden discovery gave Jose the urge to curse. But fortunately the other party was his boss, so he held back his impulse.
Jose couldn't help but wonder: "Intelligence chief? Is it from the National Security Agency? It doesn't seem to be the case. These guys were established in 1909. The current director of the National Security Agency is Vernon, who is under the leadership of Captain Kyle." , is now said to have been promoted to the level of colonel. This intelligence agency is also called MI5. It was established by the British to better understand the German Empire, and it was also used to eradicate the secret spies deployed by the German Empire in the UK.
¡°Other Naval Intelligence Bureau and Government Communications Headquarters already have people in place. Could it be that these departments have been replaced recently? "
Alfonso looked at Jose as if he was counting his treasures. He felt a little funny, but in order to save the other person's face, he did not laugh.
"No, it is an intelligence agency that was just established last year. It was established after Foreign Secretary Edward Gray and several other moderate British cabinet ministers requested the King of England."
"Them?" Jose suddenly understood. Britain is also in the midst of internal strife. Therefore, if you say who is the saddest person in the world, then it has to be spies. They are one of the saddest characters.
The British Government Communications Headquarters is now directly in the hands of the British royal family. It is an intelligence agency directly concerned with inter-governmental liaison in the UK. It is also used to supervise the domestic security situation. It is equivalent to Spain's National Security Intelligence Agency, which handles domestic affairs.
?Then there is the National Security Agency, which is under the leadership of the Home Office. It used to be an agency directly established and led by the British Secretary of War Haldane. However, with Churchill's landing in the Home Office, it is now under the management of the Home Office. And with itCorrespondingly, the Navy has also established their intelligence organization, which is now the Office of Naval Intelligence, an organization under the leadership of Secretary of the Navy Fisher. But outside of this, these are all from the past, because they were the product of the struggle between British Prime Minister Asquith and Fisher and others.
After that, in addition to the two old rivals before, this time a second one has been replaced. Because he knew that the naval intelligence agency was disadvantageous to his faction in many aspects, so in the end, under Fisher and The Chancellor of the Exchequer, George Lloyd, and others supported it, and King George V of England obviously felt that Britain needed to maintain a balance within the country. So in the end, despite the dissatisfaction of Asquith and others, Edward Gray's Ministry of Foreign Affairs established the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in 1912. Intelligence agency, the British Secret Intelligence Service. It specializes in collecting various intelligence on foreign interests in the UK, as well as various domestic security threats that are detrimental to society, and dismantles them or passes the intelligence to other departments to resolve the danger.
If you are not familiar with this department, then you must have heard of MI6. This department has been worshiped by Westerners after World War II. At the same time, it is also a relatively sensitive intelligence department for Easterners because it is responsible for management. It was one of the important tools during the colonial period of Hong Kong and was also the most important intelligence department of the United Kingdom overseas.
Until the 21st century, in many former British colonies such as Hong Kong and Singapore, this institution still caused headaches for the governments that took over these places. The most convincing one was the return of Hong Kong to the mainland army in 1997 After taking over, it was discovered that various intelligence devices were hidden in the walls of the places left by the British in many places. Also, in [Hong Kong], there were many "British citizens" who had been bribed by the British government. "The personnel stayed on the ground and continued to serve as MI6's "informants."
Alfonso has always been ambivalent about these things. First, what Spain is doing now is actually learning from the British way of handling overseas affairs. Even compared to the UK, Spain is more forward-looking and has moved forward to help the local economy improve in advance, which makes the local government no longer afraid of Spain's threat to rule.
However, after knowing the consequences, he also understood that if he is not careful, it is likely to cause a counterattack from the locals, especially those countries that have successfully developed. In the end, if democracy breaks out in these countries , at that time, Spain may detonate these flashpoints.
However, if it is not implemented at this time, Spain will be very difficult to manage in these places. Forget it, just take it one step at a time. The last word is to find ways to solve problems at first sight.
Alfonso thought about the mention of MI6 before, and he had to mention the first head of MI6, Mansfield Cumming, the future Sir, the legendary experience of the 007 movie in later generations, Ghost Ingenious weapons, as well as the battle between secrecy and leakage within the intelligence agency, all the gripping plots are embodied in him one by one. But in reality, the "007 leader"'s self-sacrifice is much greater than that of James Bond.
In fact, the leader of MI6, which was established last year, may be frightened to nightmares by a scene. An old man will suddenly grab a pen, letter opener or dagger during a meeting and stab himself in the leg. It's a prosthetic leg, which is frightening enough. This person is Sir Cumming, the first head of MI6.
Regarding his legs, Alfonso remembered a legend. In 1914, he suffered a serious car accident in France. His son was killed in the car accident. In order to escape from the crashed and deformed car, Cumming cut off his left leg with a secret weapon "pen knife" specially made by MI6. .
But some people pointed out that this was a story made up by Cumming himself, because hospital records showed that both of Cumming's legs were injured in the car accident, and his left leg was only amputated one day after the car accident. Cumming himself even told several different versions of the story about how he lost a leg, including the horrifying scene of stabbing a prosthetic leg with a knife in a conference room. He seemed to be using these stories and crazy actions to constantly remind others to pay attention - ¡ª a son and a leg ¡ª what a self-sacrifice he had done for MI6.
The reason why we need to be reminded is that at the beginning of the 20th century when Sir Cumming was in charge of MI6, few people knew about the existence of MI6, a secret intelligence agency, and even fewer people knew that Cumming was the head of this agency.
Even until the 1930s, a British writer named Compton Mackenzie wrote a memoir describing his service to the British intelligence agency on the east coast of the Mediterranean during World War I, which mentioned the importance of the British intelligence agency. When reading the document, the character will sign the letter c with green ink, and this c also becomes his code name.
Later, the good guys discovered that c happened to be Cumming, who once worked for MI6. The initials of his surname were both c. The truth was revealed.It took nearly 10 years for him to be found out. Although Cumming had long been buried when the memoirs were published, MI6 was still furious that Compton had leaked MI6 secrets in his memoirs. From this point of view, the writer was really the natural enemy of the intelligence agency.
Alfonso compared Cumming, who was now under his control. As he understood, all this seemed to dilute a lot of the mystery more and more. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature. The novels will be better and updated faster!
