Iron Germany

On the afternoon of December 1, 1934, Kirov, a member of the Russian Politburo, was shot in the Smolny Palace in Leningrad and died on the spot.

You must know that Kirov is one of the top leaders of Bu Russia. His assassination will cause great shock in the entire party and the whole country of Bu Russia.

"Check! Be sure to check it out! No matter who is involved in the murder of Comrade Kirov, you must not let it go, and you must make him pay the price!" Joseph was furious, but the Russian internal affairs people The committee immediately launched an investigation into Kirov's assassination.

"Yes, Comrade Joseph!" NKVD Yagoda replied loudly.

After Yagoda left, a smile appeared on Joseph's face. Obviously, the assassination of Kirov this time will become an opportunity for him to clean up those rebels. Taking this opportunity, the Internal Affairs Committee can make a big move.

On the day Kirov was assassinated, Joseph made amendments to the criminal law of Bu Russia without discussion and approval by the Politburo: First, all judicial organs should speed up the trial perpetrator of crime. Investigating terrorist cases shall not exceed ten days. Second, the Presidium of the Russian Central Executive Committee will not consider applications for pardon from such criminals. Once a judgment is rendered, it cannot be appealed and pardoned. Thirdly, the NKVD shall execute such criminals immediately after they have been sentenced to death.

It is these amendments to the Criminal Law that allow the Russian NKVD to arrest and interrogate senior leaders of the party, government and military in Burusa without restraint. Then he tortured him with all means, and after being beaten into a trick, he was shot directly.

Under Joseph's instigation, the NKVD began a large-scale arrest of those suspected of assassinating Kirov. Of course, this is just an excuse. Those who really have to deal with are those who oppose Joseph.

At the beginning, the NKVD arrested those people in the name of investigating Kirov's assassination. But soon, they started directly arresting those who defended the country. Of course, all of this is still just a crime they fabricated at will.

Moscow, an upscale residential area. Many of the people living here are senior leaders of Bu Russia.

After going through the most difficult time, although the conditions across the country are still not very good, there are still many people who can't even eat enough. However, the leaders of Russia have been able to enjoy a better life. Joseph believes that if the leaders of Burus live well, they will have more energy to devote themselves to handling state affairs. Therefore, several high-end residential areas were established in Moscow and allocated to those senior leaders.

A series of more than a dozen trucks drove outside the residential area, their lights illuminating the surrounding area. The heavily armed soldiers jumped out of the truck. It can be seen from their armbands that these soldiers are all troops under the NKVD.

"Quick! Quick! Hold the main intersection and don't allow the suspects to escape." An officer ordered loudly.

A tall and thin middle-aged man led a group of soldiers and walked straight into the residential area. The soldiers guarding the residential area did not dare to stop them at all. You must know that after Kirov was assassinated, the NKVD made arrests in Moscow and made a big splash. Almost everyone knows that the NKVD is not to be messed with.

The group went directly to a villa in the residential area. Here is Zinoviev's residence.

"Bump!"

There was a knock on the door of the room. When the people inside opened the door, they were stunned for a moment, as if they did not expect that there would be so many soldiers.

"Who are you looking for?" asked Zinoviev's wife.

No one paid any attention to her, and the soldiers rushed in directly.

"Yagoda, what do you want to do?" Zinoviev, who was writing documents in the study, ran out immediately after hearing the movement, just in time to see these people. He knew the leader, Yagoda, the NKVD Commissar.

"Comrade Zinoviev, your crimes have been exposed, come with us!" Yagoda said triumphantly. This is the first time they have arrested a senior leader like a political commissar! Usually, these members of the Politburo always look aloof in front of him. Now, they were about to become prisoners, which gave him a very special feeling.

"What? What is my crime? Yagoda, you are arresting people indiscriminately! I want to respond to Comrade Joseph, and I want to appeal to the Central Executive Committee podium!" Zinoviev roared angrily.

"Hmph! Take it away!" Yagoda simply ignored Zinoviev's threat.

You know, Zinoviev is a member of the Politburo. Without someone's instruction, Yagoda would not dare to arrest people no matter how courageous he is! Therefore, all of this is basically the leader of the Kremlin.

Zinoviev was arrested, and many people in the residential area saw it, and they all looked shocked.

"My God! Comrade Zinoviev has also been arrested. What is to be done?"

"The NKVD can even arrest members of the Politburo. Are they going to cover the sky with one hand?"

On the second day after Zinoviev was arrested, another senior leader of Russia, Kamenev, was also arrested.

Soon, the two were interrogated by the NKVD, and they were finally executed by shooting on charges of "selling themselves to foreign spy agencies" and "establishing a terrorist organization to assassinate Kirov and other senior leaders of Bu-Russia".

One of the biggest reasons why the two of them were shot was that they were representatives of the new opposition and posed a threat to Joseph's rule.

This is just the beginning, and the actions of the NKVD soon spread to the whole of Russia. Hundreds of thousands of people were arrested by them for various crimes, and many were shot.

The arrests by the NKVD were not only carried out within the Burundi Party and the Burundian government, but even extended to the army. Marshal Tukhachevsky, chief of staff of the Russian army, was also arrested. You know, Marshal Tukhachevsky is an outstanding military strategist known as the Red Napoleon. He made a lot of contributions in the Russian Civil War and was deeply appreciated by Ulyanov.

It is precisely because of this that Marshal Tukhachevsky doesn't give Joseph much face. Therefore, Joseph naturally wanted to get rid of such disobedient people.

In addition, there are many people in the army who have relations with Trotsky. In order to fully control the army, Joseph must also execute them.
