Marta Halle: Interpreting the legendary ace spy with body and wisdom.

On August 7th, 1876, Margaret Gera was born into an ordinary family in the Netherlands. I'm afraid most people don't know this name. Then change the name that she has handed down from generation to generation-Marta Halle. This name is still unfamiliar to people today, but a hundred years ago, it resounded through Europa. Men all over Europe are crazy about it, and countless dignitaries spend a lot of money to have a one-night sex with her. It is no exaggeration to say that she was the top social butterfly of that era.

Margaret grew up to be very lovely when she was a child, and became a beauty when she grew up. In 1897, Margaret followed her husband to Java, which is today's Indonesia. Clever and dexterous, she quickly learned a local barea dance. Although Margaret is good-looking and smart, her marriage is not happy. We don't know why she divorced, but the breakdown of marriage directly changed the trajectory of Margaret's life.

in 193, after the divorce, Margaret came to Paris alone. She can dance, so she became a dancer. Of course, she didn't take the route of literary and art workers, she became a stripper.

strippers also have pursuits. Although Margaret is good-looking, she is more beautiful than her in the army of strippers. It is not easy to get ahead in this industry. However, Margaret did it.

She combined the exotic dances she learned in Java and created a set of exotic dances called "Seven-layer Yarn". Dressed in exotic costumes, Margresa danced the original exotic dance steps, and caught the eye of the Parisian man who was used to the traditional lap dance performance at once. Magresa is red!

If this is the case, it will not be enough to show the wisdom of Margaret. While becoming a dancer, she changed her name to Mata Hari, which means "eyes of dawn" in Javanese, and lied that she was a princess fleeing from Java. Dressed in an exotic dress, she looks a bit exotic, and with authentic Javanese dance, no one studied her real origin in that era of closed information.

So such a "princess" from the East walked into the upper class of Paris with her "seven-layered gauze". Even today, the combination of the words "foreign princess" and "stripper" will still earn enough attention. What's more, Marta Halle has really unusual moving dance and sultry amorous feelings. So she began to frequent high society in Paris. Those dignitaries crowded their heads to see Marta Halle's performance. In order to have sex with her for one night, thousands or even tens of thousands of francs are thrown.

at that time, 1 franc was equivalent to .29 * * * 25 grams of gold. According to the current price of 1 gram of gold and 26 yuan RMB, 1 franc is 75 yuan RMB. Thousands or even tens of thousands of francs, Marta Hari's price is staggering. And what customers does Marta Halle take? Either rich or expensive. Not only Paris, but also men in the upper class of Europe are crazy about this woman. In addition, she has a Dutch passport, and the Netherlands was a neutral country in World War I, so Marta Hari can freely enter and leave European countries and naturally become the mistress of many high-ranking political and military figures.

Marta Haley's special status and identity make him a hot potato in the eyes of intelligence personnel. After the outbreak of World War I, German intelligence came to us. Lured by the huge reward, this vanity fair woman began to use her identity to collect information for Germany. Intelligence is too convenient for Marta Halle, and many important figures in French military and political circles are trophies of her pomegranate skirt. So in the communication between soul and flesh, top secret information was continuously sent to the German base camp, and tens of thousands of French soldiers were sent to the battlefield because of this woman.

Compared with dancing, providing night service and even being a mistress, spying is really a high-risk business. As the saying goes, you can't walk by the river without wet shoes. Money is not easy to earn. One day in January 1917, a German officer in Madrid sent an encrypted wireless telegram to Berlin, claiming that he had received very important information from a German spy code-named H-21. This telegram was intercepted and cracked by direction de la surveillance du territoire. Follow the lead and find out that this H-21 is Marta Halle.

on February 13th, 1917, Marta Halle was arrested in a hotel room in Paris. Later, she was accused of spying and was convicted. In court, Marta Hari claimed that she also worked for direction de la surveillance du territoire and was loyal to the French, but direction de la surveillance du territoire refused to admit this. The trial of Marta Haley was definitely the trial of the century at that time, and its sensational effect was no less than that of the Simpson case in the United States.

on September 15th, 1917, 41-year-old Marta Hari was sentenced. Before the execution, this butterfly that once danced on the European continent was still lovely. She refused to cover her eyes or let the executioner tie her to a stake, and blew kisses to the firing squad. Even in the face of death, Marta Halle is so fascinating to men.
