Chapter 163 Im so happy that I almost jump up
"Woooooo~~"
Air raid sirens kept sounding.
Not long after, the buzz of a fleet of aircraft was heard in the sky.
Within a few minutes, I saw bursts of light flashing in the distance in the city of Palermo, followed by muffled thunder-like sounds.
The Allies are bombing Palermo again.
January 1943,
The United States and Britain held a meeting in Casablanca to formulate a new combat plan. After the North African War, the Allied forces will land in Sicily. The purpose is to occupy the island to ensure the Allies' Mediterranean routes are open, attract the westward transfer of German troops from the Soviet-German battlefield, and force Italy to surrender.
.
The campaign was carried out by the Allied Forces in North Africa. The commander-in-chief was General Eisenhower. The deputy commander-in-chief and commander of the army was General Alexander, commander of the 15th Allied Army Group. The commander of the navy was Admiral Cunningham. The commander of the air force was Ted.
Air Force General.
Although the German army is still struggling in North Africa, it has shown signs of defeat, and the Allies have begun their subsequent plans.
During this period, Jiang Hao made the organization act more low-key. Except for the cigarette factory business and maintaining the black market, all other activities were stopped.
Suddenly one day, Luka found Jiang Hao. In Jiang Hao's study, Luka said cautiously: "Boss, the Yankees found me."
Jiang Hao's expression changed.
"go on."
"Actually, people from the US intelligence agency found Adi, and then found me through Adi. They sent people to Sicily to meet me, hoping that we could help them and provide them with intelligence." Luca said.
"The Americans asked you to ask me."
"No, they only know that we have an organization and I am an important member of the organization. They may not know your existence, maybe they just have some vague information." Luka said.
Jiang Hao closed his eyes, pondered for a while, and said, "Luka, tell them to send a higher-ranking person to see me."
"Boss, do you want to see them in person?" Luka said slightly surprised.
"This is our opportunity, a very good opportunity, we must seize it." Jiang Hao said.
One night later, Jiang Hao was standing by a river wearing a coat, looking at the river flowing quietly under the moonlight. Not long after, a car drove from a distance and stopped a hundred meters away from Jiang Hao.
.
Luca and several members of the organization got out of the car and came over surrounded by a white man. This man was about forty years old. After seeing Jiang Hao, he said: "My name is Jason, nice to meet you, Renato Bernano."
gentlemen."
Jason was as ordinary as Wang Qiang and Li Ming in China, and he didn't know whether the other person's name was his real name. Jiang Hao didn't worry about this.
"Hello Mr. Johnson, Luca told me what you think, no problem, I am willing to help you." Jiang Hao said straight to the point.
Jason was slightly surprised. He originally thought that he would have to use his eloquence to convince this well-hidden Sicilian boss, but he didn't expect that the other party agreed directly.
"That's great." Jason said happily.
"Of course, we also have conditions." Jiang Hao said in turn.
"You can put forward any conditions." Compared with war, everything else is easy to negotiate.
"After you seize Sicily, I will take administrative power over the entire Sicily. Also, I will develop our business. When we get to the United States, I hope to get permission from the U.S. government." Jiang Hao said.
Jason hesitated for a moment, "I can't answer you now because I don't have the right. I need to ask the higher-ups for instructions. Of course, I believe that everything now must be compromised for the sake of war. I think the higher-ups will agree."
"That's very good. I wish us a happy cooperation. By the way, in order to show my sincerity, I have something here for you. It can be regarded as a meeting gift." Jiang Hao said, adding the distribution of German military garrison and information collected by Basali before.
Give the cigarette delivery quantity list to the other party.
Luka sent the other party away.
Jensen secretly left Sicily and opened the document on the way back to the ship. After reading it, he felt ecstatic. If nothing else, the value of this information was immeasurable. It could be said that he had a complete grasp of the German troops stationed in Sicily.
details.
By giving away cigarettes, you can analyze how many people are there.
This information is so valuable. It seems that Mr. Bernano is really willing to cooperate with them. Previous investigations said that he was from a Mafia family and had a deep hatred for Mussolini. This should be true.
After returning to the station, Jason sent this information to the senior management and told Jiang Hao's request. The general immediately agreed.
A few days later, Jensen returned to Sicily again and met Jiang Hao. "General Eisenhower personally agreed to your request. The general said that if there is a chance, he would like to see you in person, of course, after the war is won."
"Well, by that time, I am very willing to visit His Excellency the General." Jiang Hao said.
"The Joint Chiefs of Staff have affirmed your value. If you do business in the United States, you will receive government support and certain help. The Navy hopes to obtain photos and information on every port and waterway in Sicily."
"As for the army, I hope to get your help when attacking the island. It would be best if there is someone who is familiar with the road conditions to guide us."
"Of course, I know these requirements are a bit difficult. The senior management just hopes that you will try your best," said Jensen.
Jiang Hao smiled faintly,
He spread out a map of Sicily, pointed at the map and said: "There are 6 cities, 32 towns, and 119 villages in Sicily. I have all the black market transactions in Sicily, and I have people everywhere."
Jason was shocked when he heard this, and then he felt ecstatic in his heart. He had control over the entire black market business in Sicily. In other words, this person had the most detailed information about the entire Sicily. Is there any more important collaborator than such a collaborator?
It seems that I still underestimated this person's energy before.
"That's great." Jason said happily.
Jiang Hao did not look at Jason and continued: "And in many Italian armies, we have trading partners and collaborators. Through them, we can know some of the internal conditions of the army and even instigate rebellion."
Jason's eyes widened and his breathing quickened slightly.
Jiang Hao's fire continued, "We also have business dealings with the Italian Navy. In the past, the navy was escorting us for tobacco smuggling. If you want to know about the situation of the navy, I can also provide you with some information."
