Struggle in Soviet Russia

For Victor, this was his first contact with Malenkov, and Malenkov, after he was reborn into this era, besides Comrade Stalin, he had come into contact with the highest-ranking Soviet leader, and at the same time, he was also in contact with Arrived, one of several Soviet leaders who were familiar with in previous lives.

Through this first initial contact, Victor's impression of Comrade Malinkov is fairly good. In his eyes, this comrade of the Central Committee has a good temper, is kind, sincere, and understands people very well.

Of course, this is only the first impression, and when people get to know someone, the first impression is often not very accurate.

The argumentation of the three experts continued until the early hours of the morning. Of course, this end does not mean that the argumentation work is over. On the contrary, only a very small part of the argumentation on the relevant data was carried out, mainly the research of the Soviet Academy of Sciences in related aspects. Little progress has been made, and major research projects have not yet advanced to the current progress of the British. Therefore, the demonstration of relevant data needs to be carried out step by step in future research work.

However, even so, the emergence of these data is sufficient to prove that the realization of nuclear weapons is completely feasible in theory.

At one o'clock in the morning, as the three experts came up with the preliminary results of the argumentation, Malinkov did not delay a minute and took a group of people directly to the Kremlin to report the results of the argument to Comrade Stalin-Comrade Stalin likes to stay up all night, unless there are special circumstances. He rarely works during the day.

In the Kremlin, after listening to the preliminary report, Comrade Stalin directly issued a notice to convene an emergency meeting of the People’s Committee for National Defense, requesting all members of the Committee’s Ministry in Moscow to rush to the Kremlin overnight to convene a meeting to determine a new item. The resolution of the People’s Committee of National Defense.

Although Comrade Stalin said that the draft was to be discussed and approved by all members of the People’s Committee of National Defense, the drafting of the draft was entrusted to Academician Jofe, and the people who participated in the drafting of the draft also included Malinkov. , Beria, and Comrade Berwusin who presided over the research on "Explosive Uranium".

For Victor, based on his current job level, he is not eligible to participate in the drafting of such a draft. However, as the director of the General Staff Intelligence Agency, he was given the opportunity to attend the meeting as a non-voting delegate.

The main purpose of this draft is to restart research on the feasibility of using atomic energy through uranium nuclear fission, and the purpose of the research work is to make uranium bombs or uranium fuel to weaponize uranium nuclear fission.

The implementation part of the draft involves almost all organizational departments of the entire alliance. For example, the intelligence department needs to pay close attention to the progress of relevant research projects in Britain, the United States, Germany and other countries, and strive to obtain accurate data intelligence and related technologies as soon as possible. Information: The land department needs to find uranium mines available for mining within the scope of the alliance, so as to provide basic raw materials for research work; the industrial department must provide sufficient equipment, facility support, etc. for research projects.

Also in the drafting process of this draft, Comrade Malinkov took the lead in proposing the concept of confidential administrative districts. According to his plan, for confidentiality, the alliance should establish several confidential administrative districts and set up relevant research institutes and factories. In various confidential administrative areas with different functions.

What's interesting is that, in order to confuse overseas intelligence personnel who are likely to exist, Malinkov proposed to implement a numbering system for confidential administrative areas, but the corresponding numbers should be messy. For example: Chelyabinsk confidential administrative district, you can give a number 40, combined into one, is the confidential administrative district "Chelyabinsk-40". In this way, even if foreign intelligence personnel intercept relevant information, they will spend a lot of effort to find the areas represented by numbers such as 39, 38, and 37, but in fact, these numbered areas are not Exist, at least not in the short term.

While the first person was drafting the draft, Victor gave a detailed introduction to the London espionage network in Comrade Stalin’s office, including how the espionage network was created, and how to find the core secrets of the British. Yes, what is his identity and so on.

This is the first time Victor has reported on his work in front of Comrade Stalin. There is no doubt that this is a rare opportunity for him, and he is using the original members of the Communist International and using the complexity of their identities to carry out espionage work. In this matter, Victor did beautifully.

It is precisely in this way that in the past few months, the overseas intelligence network established by the General Staff Intelligence Agency has been quickly rolled out, and its intelligence sources have expanded not only in Britain, the United States, Germany and other countries. In more than ten different countries, intelligence stations were set up for the first time.

Undoubtedly, this kind of work performance is very eye-catching for anyone.

For a front-line intelligence officer, his merit is the valuable information he has obtained. The more such information, the greater his merit. For a role like Victor, as the director of the General Staff Intelligence Bureau, it is naturally impossible for him to go to the front line to engage in intelligence. Therefore, his merits are reflected in the construction of the intelligence network. The more efficient the operation of the General Staff Intelligence Bureau, The better an intelligence officer's work is, the more his merits can be highlighted. Now, the development of the Intelligence Bureau of the General Staff in the past few months has undoubtedly proved his ability and also demonstrated his merits.

In the early morning, thick clouds hovered over the entire Moscow city. Although the worrying rainstorm last night has ceased, the clear weather clearly has no meaning to return. Perhaps the next rain is still brewing.

When the black car that Victor was riding in came out of the Kremlin and walked around the deserted Red Square, Victor, who hadn’t slept all night, patted Varenka’s shoulder, asked him to pull over and stop the car, and then pushed the door to get out of the car. .

He walked well in the car to clear his groggy mind.

How dare Varenka let him go alone, so he could only find a place to park the car, and then accompany him along the red wall of the Kremlin all the way east.

Because of the heavy rain all night, some rainwater accumulated on the bluestone slabs of the Red Square. When the high-tube military boots step on it, they will make a crackling light and splashing water.

Victor's drowsy mind was blank. He didn't think about anything. He just walked east along the palace wall, and finally walked down the **** at the east end of the palace wall, until he reached Boshvarmoskovnas across the Moskva River. Base bridge.

Crossing the nearly 100-meter-long arch bridge and walking to the entrance of Ordinka Street, Victor, who was a little more sober, stopped. He was attracted by a group of people gathered on the side of the road.

Among the group of people, there was steaming mist drifting away. Looking closely, it was a temporary stall selling breakfast. An obese old lady was busy selling her egg pancakes.

Looking at the fried golden blinis at the stall from a distance, Victor felt a little hungry for no reason. He touched his pocket, only to find that he didn't even bring his wallet.

Varenka, who was walking by his side, approached him and handed a pack of cigarettes to him. Obviously, the young man with no eyesight would be wrong. He thought Victor was looking for a cigarette.

"Go and buy me two pancakes," Victor said, taking the cigarettes and pointing at the pancake booth casually.

"Yes, Comrade Chief," Varenka replied, and ran towards the place where the group of people were while touching his pockets.

Today Varenka does not wear casual clothes. He wears a lieutenant uniform of the NKVD. The iconic blue hat and blue trousers with red trousers are all so eye-catching. So when he approaches that When the booth was full of people, a scene that shocked Victor appeared.

Just when Varenka was ten steps away from the stall, a diners who had just bought pancakes spotted him. With an exclamation, the diners who had gathered in front of the stall suddenly dispersed. The old pancake lady, who was so fat that she was out of shape, pushed her dining car directly, and rushed toward the alley across the street at a speed that was completely inconsistent with her figure.

Behind the old pancake lady, freshly cooked pancakes, bottles and jars with seasonings, and even rolled eggs fell scattered on the ground, but even so, the old pancake lady did not look back. Have a look.

Varenka stopped in place, turned his face for a long time, looked at Victor with a sad expression on his face. As for Victor, he was still in a state of absent-mindedness and had not recovered. At this moment, his mind Thinking about the previous life...City Guan, there is no doubt that Varenka's uniform is more deterrent than the city management.

It wasn't until this moment that Victor remembered that this old pancake stall was illegal. In the era of Comrade Stalin, this kind of self-employment was carried out secretly.

Stepping helplessly, Victor walked in the direction where the pancake old lady escaped. At the junction of the bridge foundation and the road, he picked up a pancake that had fallen on the stone slab-luckily, there was no rain on the stone slab of the bridge foundation. Although the golden pancakes are stained with dirt, they are not very dirty.

Blowing off the dirt on the pancake, Victor brought it to his mouth and took a light bite.

Well, let alone, the taste is very good, the pancakes are burnt on the outside and tender on the inside, crispy and refreshing, and have a good taste.

Taking a look in the direction where the old pancake lady had escaped, Victor turned his head and looked around. Finally, he chose a row of chairs near the street lamppost and sat down, eating crispy pancakes while looking at Ordinka Street. Pedestrians going up and down. Varenka stood behind the row of chairs, and looked at any pedestrians around him who tried to approach.

On this gloomy morning, on the sidewalk of Ordinka Street, a NKVD colonel eating pancakes was sitting in a row chair, and an expressionless NKVD lieutenant was standing behind the row chair. The picture, It is very disharmonious to any pedestrian who is going to and fro, so walking around them becomes the best choice.

It was from this day that Victor never traveled in a uniform except for those occasions where there was a clear requirement.
