Chapter 753 How did he come up with this idea?
Green grass and blue sky.
The spring breeze is cool and the ground is covered with fallen flowers. It is a good time for an outing.
Charles stood high up in Oss Park, overlooking the busy town of Darwaz below.
Today is May Day, and it is time to take a day off and give each other lily of the valley flowers. However, the tall chimneys in the town of Darwaz are still spewing out black smoke, with no signs of stopping work.
During the war, holidays became a topic of conversation at the dinner table, and workers often joked about themselves while working:
"Happy holidays, where are you going on vacation?"
"Oh, I originally wanted to go to the beach, but the sea water is still too cold, so I chose to come back to work."
"I'm here because I don't have a car, so I plan to build a tank as a means of transportation!"
…
Despite this, they are willing to work overtime.
Because this is Charles' factory, they believe that every bit of blood and sweat they put in is worth it, that they are contributing to France and protecting their homeland.
Therefore, unlike other areas where strikes occur every other day, there have never been strikes or demonstrations in the factories in Darwaz town.
On the contrary, workers continued to crowd in from all directions.
They have good professional qualities and can find higher-paying jobs elsewhere, but they would rather wait in line for interviews here.
"This is your charm." Lucia walked to Charles' side, she naturally took Charles' hand, and looked into the distance at Darvaz, which had developed into a medium-sized town, with pride in her eyes.
"Is everything arranged?" Charles asked.
"Yes." Lucia nodded: "It's easier than I thought."
Charles felt a little strange:
"It shouldn't be like this. 'Ladies in White' is a non-governmental organization."
“Although there are veterans and elite soldiers joining, it has only been established for more than a year.”
"But she was able to crush the Second Bureau of the French General Staff. You know, the Second Bureau is a professional intelligence agency."
Lucia invited Charles to walk onto the gravel path in the park, admiring the flowers blooming on both sides while answering: "It's nothing strange. The height of the second game is not determined by themselves, but by his opponent."
Charles suddenly realized and nodded thoughtfully.
For a long time, the opponents of the Second Bureau have been civilians, private armed forces of capitalists, or underworld groups.
Because their opponents are just a mob and they always win easily, their level is lowered over time.
Although the "Madam in White" is a civilian organization, it is prepared for war and its opponent is the German army and its intelligence organizations.
Therefore, every member of the "Ladies in White" has a high level of ideological awareness and is mentally prepared to make sacrifices, and they continue to improve under the tremendous pressure of war.
The result is that this non-governmental organization, which was established much later, has crushed the professional second bureau in terms of strength.
It seems that I overestimated the second game, thought Charles.
Lucia added: "There is another reason. It gives us an innate advantage, which is very important."
"What?" Ciel asked, realizing that he didn't know much about the organization he was loyal to.
"Identity." Lucia picked a rose, put it close to her nose and smelled it, then handed it to Charles with a smile. It was the red color of passionate love.
Charles took it casually and asked in confusion, "Is your identity?"
"Yes." Lucia took Charles' hand again, and she hopped lightly as if she was about to fly. "The Second Bureau wants to forge an identity for their spy, General, but we don't need it."
Charles understood.
There is a saying that goes, "If you don't want others to know, don't do it yourself."
Every identity that the Second Bureau forged for intelligence personnel, such as maid, driver, vendor, etc., will inevitably have loopholes.
As long as you investigate carefully, or let someone who has been immersed in this industry for many years get involved in it for a few days, you will be able to find suspicious points and discover abnormalities.
The “Lady in White” does not have this problem.
Their identities are real, genuine and flawless.
For example, if the butler and driver around Clemenceau were not intentionally exposed, there would be no problem even if they remained hidden for a few more years. Even Clemenceau would not have been able to find them, let alone the second bureau.
As a result, the "Lady in White" had a huge advantage in the second game because "the enemy was in the light and I was in the dark".
The Second Bureau did not know about the "Madam in White", but the "Madam in White" knew everything about the intelligence personnel in the Second Bureau.
If this happens to an intelligence unit, the only outcome will be being crushed and eliminated.
"You are the biggest contributor." Lucia picked another rose and handed it to Charles, pure white.
"Me?" Charles smiled softly: "You mean my command?"
"Command is only one aspect," Lucia replied:
"What's more important is your victory, your policy of rationing, and everything you did for the French people."
"Do you know what you used the money you gave me for?"
"We used it to buy weapons and equipment, and there was almost no money for the activities and salaries of the personnel. Most of them worked for us for free, which enabled us to grow to several thousand people in a short period of time."
If it weren't for the fear of being too large and crowded with good and bad people, it would have expanded to tens of thousands of people long ago.
Ciel said "hmm", this was a fringe benefit.
But this benefit is very important, and the struggle with Parliament ultimately depends on the intelligence units.
The victorious party will be able to control a politician just as it controls Clemenceau today, and then manipulate the parliament and the government at its will.
"But there is a difficulty now, General." Lucia handed Charles a rose, pink romance.
"What's the difficulty?" asked Charles.
"The matter of the Fidel Refinery is in progress." Lucia walked backwards and said to Charles, "The 'middleman' signed a contract with them, and they are even willing to reopen the production line for our order."
"Very good." Charles nodded.
The more gasoline sold to Germany, the greater Briand's guilt, and the more successful his plan to prolong Germany's life.
"The question is..." Lucia asked:
“How are we going to get all this gasoline across the border to the Germans?”
"As you know, there is fighting on the Eastern Front. It is almost impossible to transport such a huge amount of gasoline across the defense line without the knowledge of the Russian army."
Charles answered simply: "You don't need luck, Lucia."
"No need for transportation?" Lucia looked confused.
Charles nodded:
"You just need to bury them somewhere behind the lines and tell the Germans about it."
"Then the Germans would attack for gasoline."
"They'll beat back the Russians and dig up the gasoline!"
Lucia paused, and Charles almost bumped into her.
"You, you..." Lucia looked at Charles with admiration: "You have thought of this idea a long time ago?"
God, how did he come up with that?
The gasoline was delivered to the Germans perfectly without any risk, but it gave me a headache for several days!
