Chapter 1252 Self-recommendation The roar of the aircraft engine is low and powerful. Even sitting in the cabin, you can feel the strong power. Although this transport aircraft still uses an old piston internal combustion engine, it cannot compare with the speed and speed of jet aircraft. high, but because it has four engines, its safety is quite good, and its range and load capacity are also quite satisfactory. (Niu Wen Novel ~ Read Novel Online) At this moment, there are more than 20 passengers sitting in the cabin of this transport plane, and they are all officers. The one with the lowest military rank is also a lieutenant colonel, and the one with the highest military rank, He is an army brigadier general, Director Lu Yuguang of the Military Intelligence Bureau. He is currently responsible for intelligence work in the entire Middle East and North Africa, and the officers who were on the same transport plane with him are also his subordinates. Everyone morning After leaving Iraq and taking a long flight, we have now entered Egyptian airspace. Although Cairo has been occupied by the Asian Alliance coalition forces, the Egyptian campaign is still not over. Fighters and reconnaissance aircraft of the German and Italian air forces appear in the sky from time to time. Therefore, when this transport plane carrying an army brigadier approached the Suez Canal, Four "Lightning" fighter jets in the nearby airspace have been ordered to come to escort. These jet fighters will be responsible for protecting the transport plane's safe arrival at Cairo Airport. Lu Yuguang was sitting on the seat near the port window, and more than a hundred meters outside the port window, a "Lightning" was flying at a low speed. In the sun, the wings were shining, making the passengers on the transport plane feel more Safety. It was in this safe atmosphere that Brigadier General Lu Yuguang leaned on his seat and took a nap for half an hour. During these days, he had been working continuously. The more wartime it was, the more demanding the intelligence work was. Yes, no, I just cracked a Nazi German intelligence network in Iraq. I didn't even get a good night's sleep, so I rushed to Egypt non-stop to arrange the intelligence work here. Germany and Italy have been occupying Egypt for some time. , this period of time is neither long nor short, but it is enough for German and Italian intelligence organizations to take root in Egypt. What's more, Lu Yuguang's opponents are not only spies from Germany and Italy, but also spies from the United Kingdom and the United States. spies, and under the current situation, the counterintelligence work of British and American spies has become more and more important. The most important thing in intelligence work is to be prepared for a rainy day. The Egyptian campaign has not yet completely ended, and the Asian Alliance Allied Forces and the British and American Allied Forces have not yet With the victory met, the secret front was already filled with smoke. "General, we are almost here in Cairo." A colonel officer walked up to Lu Yuguang and whispered. Lu Yuguang opened his eyes, nodded, sat up straight, and then turned to look out the window. The "Lightning" was still there, but under the wings of the "Lightning", there was the familiar Pyramid, and in the desert near the pyramid, you can also see the wreckage of an airplane. Because the distance is too far, it is impossible to determine the model of the airplane, but this is enough to illustrate the current situation in the Egyptian sky. It is not absolutely safe here. of airspace. Soon, Cairo Airport was in sight. The military transport plane landed smoothly on the airport runway. Since the German army destroyed the airport facilities before withdrawing from Cairo, the transport plane had to hover in the sky for a while to wait for the aviation control tower. Arrange for landing. After all, this is also a military airport. Fighters and bombers also need to line up to take off and land, and there are only two repaired runways. When the transport plane stopped, Lu Yuguang and his men stepped off the plane and stood on the newly repaired runway. Looking around, they were surrounded by ruins. Perhaps they felt that it was difficult to hold Cairo. The German army attacked Cairo before retreating. All important strategic facilities have suffered earth-shaking damage. The airport has been bombed beyond recognition by the Germans. The current aviation control tower is actually a high platform made of some steel pipes, with a canvas shade on top, and the air traffic control officer stands there. At the edge of the high platform, a radio is used to direct air traffic. The German army not only blew up the airport runway, but also planted a large number of landmines on and near the runway. After Lu Yuguang and his men got off the plane, the first thing they saw was the eye-catching warning signs. Minefields can be seen everywhere. Engineers The troops are also going all out to carry out demining operations. Although the Chinese *** team had only been stationed in Cairo for a day, order in the city had been completely restored. After Lu Yuguang and his men walked out of the airport, they saw order on the street. Moreover, come The adjutant who picked them up had already commanded two trucks to wait outside the airport. The supply of vehicles is now relatively tight, and it is difficult for cars to be included in the transportation plan. Even the brigadier general can only make do with sitting in the cab of the truck. . Just like that, we arrived at the Cairo Garrison Headquarters in a truck and met the deputy commander of the garrison. The deputy commander had received relevant instructions from the General Staff Headquarters. So when Lu Yuguang arrived with his men, the deputy commander immediately sent an adjutant to lead the troops.He led them to the offices prepared for the Military Intelligence Bureau. The garrison headquarters is located at the site of the former German headquarters. Since this place used to be the Royal Palace of Egypt, the Germans may have had some scruples for fear of arousing the anger of the Egyptians, so they did not cause extensive damage here during the evacuation. Moreover, here It used to be the location of the British Army Headquarters. It has complete facilities and equipment and is very suitable for use by the occupying forces. Entering the office prepared for him, Lu Yuguang first took a look at the furnishings in the office. They were quite luxurious and he could even see a few classical oil paintings that were not known to be fakes. It seemed that the German army was retreating in a hurry. After taking off his general hat and military jacket and hanging them on the coat rack, Lu Yuguang took out the folding fan from his briefcase, fanned twice desperately, and then called the adjutant and asked him to bring a prisoner of war over. . Due to insufficient power of the generator, it was unable to power the electric fan. The airflow in the room was sluggish and the temperature was high. Lu Yuguang could only stand in front of the window wearing a short-sleeved shirt. Before he could finish studying the furnishings in the garden outside the window, the man The prisoners of war who had already been taken to the headquarters for detention were already brought to Lu Yuguang by the adjutant. This is a prisoner of war in the Italian army. His rank before being captured was an army major. When being interrogated in the prisoner of war camp, he expressed his willingness to serve China. Coupled with his special background, he was taken to the headquarters. "What's your name?" Lu Yuguang asked the prisoner of war first. Of course, this question was asked through an interpreter. "Your Excellency, my name is Toledo Corleone Alcasino, and I am the son of Italian Army Lieutenant General Alcasino Sr. Everything I said is true, as evidenced by the certificates and related documents you seized, and You can also interrogate those captured Italian generals. "Little Alcassino repeated this sentence again and again. Since he was captured, at least five intelligence officers have interrogated him, and his answer is always the same. Same, even the translator is the same person. "You told the interrogator that you are willing to act as a spy for us. I am very satisfied with your sanity. But the problem is that based on your father's background alone, it is difficult for us to fully trust you. In fact, your use value is not high. ." Lu Yuguang raised his eyebrows and stared into the eyes of the Italian prisoner of war. Alcasino shrugged his shoulders. He turned back, glanced at the general's uniform jacket hanging on the coat rack, noticed the military rank, and then asked Lu Yuguang a few questions. "Excuse me, are you a brigadier general of the Chinese Army? Are you a senior officer specifically responsible for military intelligence work?" Lu Yuguang said lightly: "My surname is Lu, and I am a director of the Chinese Intelligence Bureau. Currently, In charge of Egypt's affairs, you can trust my authority. Here, I am actually an officer with the same status as the deputy commander of the theater, although the military rank is not very high. " "Well, I can tell you another very important thing. Before I was captured, I served the Soviet intelligence agency, and I once disclosed to Soviet intelligence agents information about the secret meeting between the heads of state of China, Germany, and Italy in the Sinai Peninsula. And I also believe that it was this information that The intelligence prompted the Soviet government to make up its mind to end the "Caucasus War" immediately to deal with the threat from Germany. In other words, I am also serving the Soviet Union, and they trust me very much. I can pass false information to the Soviet Union for you. Confusing the Soviet intelligence agency and the Soviet government." Alcasino told a secret without being humble or condescending, and then he noticed that the expression of the Chinese general in front of him became solemn. Lu Yuguang was indeed a little surprised. No wonder he felt that the voice of the Italian prisoner of war sounded familiar to him just now. Now, when the other party mentioned the secret meeting between the heads of China, Germany and Italy in the Sinai Peninsula, Lu Yuguang suddenly remembered it. Yes, he had indeed heard the Italian officer's voice before. It was during "Operation Snowman" that the Soviet spy Sorge met with a man he bribed in the Sinai Peninsula in order to spy on the details of the secret meeting between the heads of the three countries. The Italian military officer made contact and used a sum of money to purchase some document photos of the secret meeting from the other party. At that time, the man who met Sorge in the hotel room was Alcasino. As a senior agent of the military intelligence agency, Lu Yuguang has a very good memory. Even if he only meets once and hears a voice, he can still recall it. At that time, when Alcasino and Sorge were meeting, Lu Yuguang led his men to eavesdrop in the guest room next door. At that time, Lu Yuguang noticed Alcasino, but because the other party quickly Following Mussolini, he left the Sinai Peninsula and returned to Rome, so this line was cut off. After that, Lu Yuguang never tried to use Alcasino as a spy, and he did not know the other party's name. ButNow, Alcasino actually came to his door, saying that he wanted to serve the Military Intelligence Bureau and act as a spy. This made Lu Yuguang somewhat emotional. Maybe this was fate. The Soviet Union¡¯s current national power is declining and it is no longer the focus of the Military Intelligence Agency. However, Lu Yuguang thought of another way to use this Italian prisoner of war. "What do you want?" Lu Yuguang did not immediately state his position. In his opinion, this Alcasino was simply an unprincipled gambler. He would serve whoever offered him benefits. The Soviets bribed him, and he He could serve the Soviet Union, and if the Americans came to bribe him, he would definitely be happy to serve the Americans. "I need money, a sum of money, and moreover, I need freedom, complete freedom. I will never wait for the war to end in a prisoner of war camp. If so, God knows where my lover will fly to? If you can If I am sent to El Alamein or somewhere else, I can find a way to go to Greece and pass on the information to you. If it is not convenient to be released directly, you can plan a riot in the prisoner of war camp, and I will take advantage of the chaos with a group of people. The officer slipped away, and now the prisoner-of-war camp is guarded by a group of Arabs, who are very unfriendly to the Italian prisoners of war." Alcasino was very confident, and he believed that the other party would definitely meet his request. ¡°That Soviet spy who once contacted you in the Sinai Peninsula, do you still have channels to contact him?¡± Lu Yuguang suddenly asked a question that surprised Alcasino. "There are contact channels, and the contact station is in Rome. What?" Alcasino's eyes lit up. "Nothing, you go down first, I will consider your proposal. I will ask the adjutant to arrange a new residence for you, and from now on, you should not talk to anyone again. Without my order, you can't even Get out of the room." Lu Yuguang still did not express his position immediately. He really needed to carefully consider how to use this valuable spy. After Alcasino left, Lu Yuguang immediately drafted a telegram. The recipient was the director of the Military Intelligence Bureau. He now had a rough outline of how to use the Italian spy and was waiting for approval from his superiors.
