One of the main tasks of a spy is to steal information through illegal or legal means, secretly or openly. Let me introduce to you the top ten spies during World War II.

Dr. Spy: Richard Sorge

When Richard Sorge was arrested on espionage charges, people couldn’t believe that this man had a separate position in the German Embassy in Tokyo. The German journalist who was in the office and was close to the ambassador actually worked for Moscow.

Sorge’s mother is Russian, and his family moved to Germany when he was 3 years old. While in college, he was influenced by left-wing ideas and joined the German Communist Party. In 1924, the Soviet intelligence service accepted Sorge as an agent. In 1941, Germany declared war against the Soviet Union. Sorge had already reported this information to the Soviet Union, but it did not receive enough attention. After the war started, Japan announced its intention to open a battlefield in the Far East, exposing the Soviet Union to enemies from both sides. Moscow was in a state of extreme panic. Sorge and his companions conducted a large amount of intelligence analysis and concluded: "The Soviet Far East can be considered safe. It is impossible for Japan to launch a war against the Soviet Union. On the contrary, Japan will launch a war against the United States within a few weeks."

Because of Sorge's accurate judgment, the Soviet Union boldly concentrated its forces on the Western Front to defend Moscow with all its strength, and finally won. After Sorge was arrested, he was secretly executed for treason on November 7, 1944 at the age of 49.
