The Military Intelligence Bureau responsible for external intelligence was also capable of overseeing domestic affairs. It dispatched a large number of spies to infiltrate other countries, allowing them to gain control of some foreign key sectors and thus uncover spies sent by enemies within the country.

After the United Kingdom, France, and Australasia signed the Counter-Infiltration Treaty, counter-espionage and counter-infiltration efforts among the three countries became much easier.

Investigating some false identities became easier as well, allowing Australasia to pay closer attention to the counter-infiltration efforts of the United Kingdom and France.

Just half a month later, the Intelligence Department of Australasia made a discovery.

The discovery was made by the Foreign Intelligence Department, which is the Military Intelligence Bureau. The situation involved the British, who had been heavily infiltrated by the enemy.

Arthur was shocked when he received the intelligence because, according to the situation, the enemy had been infiltrating British institutions for several years, and a considerable amount of information and industrial technology had been transferred to the Russia Nation.

If it were not for the timely discovery by Australasia’s Intelligence Department, the various materials and intelligence leaked from the British alone would have been enough to allow the Russians to become an industrial superpower much more rapidly.

This was truly critical and definitely bad news.

Arthur promptly decided to quickly disrupt the Russian infiltration in the United Kingdom and clean up Russian spies within the country as much as possible.

Donald Maclean, born into a nobility family in London in 1913, had a father who was a Liberal Party politician and had served as the Chairman of the Education Committee.

In June 1934, Maclean passed his University of Cambridge graduation exams with flying colors. In August 1935, he began preparing for the entrance examination of the British Foreign Office. When the examination committee asked him about the “Supporting Russia” ideology he had displayed at Cambridge, he contemplated for a moment and replied, “I once held such ideas, and I have not completely abandoned them yet,” His honest answer pleased the interviewers, and they agreed to let him join the Foreign Affairs Department.

In the two years since joining the Foreign Affairs Department, Donald Maclean had already conveyed at least 11 pieces of intelligence to Russia, including the deployment of the Expeditionary Force of Britain, the production status of the British Military Industry, and some cooperative details between Australasia and the United Kingdom.

Arthur felt like laughing when he saw these espionage records. Donald Maclean had already shown actions supporting the Russia Nation while at Cambridge University, yet the Foreign Affairs Department’s interviewers had recruited him solely because of his seemingly honest behavior.

One must know that this is about recruiting a diplomat for a national department, and one who could potentially get in touch with core levels of government officials.

At this moment, Arthur finally remembered a famous incident related to Cambridge University, the Cambridge Five.

Five outstanding talents born in Britain were infiltrated by Russia one after another, and they all headed towards important British institutions and departments.

During, and for several decades after, World War II, they provided countless pieces of intelligence to Russia, which was one of the reasons for Russia’s rapid rise in history.

This included some important military equipment blueprints and data, as well as industrial technology intelligence.

Although Arthur had no ill intent towards those who pursued their own ideas, was it really okay for them to betray their own country for the sake of ideology?

Moreover, Arthur’s position was now hostile to theirs, so he naturally would not let them off the hook.
