Struggle in Soviet Russia

Some people may think that Terekov did not make a mistake, he is just doing his duty, but the question is, what kind of duty is he doing, and whether he looks at the problem from the perspective of his own job.

The job of intelligence work is to find the most valuable spies and obtain the most valuable intelligence. Saving budget is not an issue that needs to be considered in intelligence work. It is the job of the audit department.

Therefore, in Viktor's eyes, Terekov's treatment of Hahn was a complete malfeasance. If it was placed in the hands of Yezhov, his fate would definitely not be as simple as being transferred to the logistics department. Therefore, from this point, Victor is already a very reasonable and gentle person.

"Then I will let the secretariat draft the report," Sofia said, after understanding the starting point of Victor's approach, "Would you like to say hello to Comrade Feijing?"

"No," Victor shook his head, took a cigarette from the cigarette case on the table, and held it in his mouth. Take a look at the Special Department. I heard that Aitingo has already made the plan. I need a photocopy."

"Yes," Sophia nodded, turned and walked towards the door.

"Ah, yes," Victor called to her again just as she walked to the door, and asked, "Where are the work arrangements for today?"

"In the red folder on your right," Sophia turned around, pointed at his desk, and said.

After Eitingo entered the ranks of members of the National Security People's Committee, Victor's work was divided a little, which made his job a lot easier. However, the ease mentioned here is only relatively speaking. For the moment, there are four main tasks that are pressing on him.

The first is the counterintelligence bureau. The clean-up of the so-called "Vlasov comrades" is still continuing, and under the leadership of the General Political Department, the number of people who need to be interrogated has not decreased, but has also become more and more important. More and more.

In Victor's view, this so-called work is simply nonsense, and it has no benefit at all except causing some unjust, false and wrong cases and consuming more energy of the National Security Committee.

But politics is politics, and no one can express opposition because it is tired of it, because it will only make oneself an object that others are tired of.

Victor didn't want to spend too much time on this work, but he couldn't help but stare at it for nothing else, just because he was worried that some people were doing too ridiculously.

The second task is foreign intelligence work. In this work link, Victor closely follows the latest news from the London Intelligence Station and the Berlin Intelligence Station. The current work of these two intelligence stations is critical. The former is closely related to the research and development of the atomic bomb, and the latter. It is closely linked to the development of rockets.

The work of the two intelligence stations is very good. In the past period of time, a lot of intelligence materials have been sent back one after another. These materials have played a very important role in promoting the technological research and development of the Soviet Union in related fields.

The third task is the task just given by Comrade Serov, related to the establishment of a special radio communications battalion. In comparison, although this task is not difficult, it takes up the most time and energy, because Victor needs to recruit relevant technical personnel from all aspects to join the sequence of the communications camp.

In the work classification of the National Security People’s Committee, personnel work is actually very critical. The reason is simple. The corresponding person in charge must ensure that the recruited is completely politically reliable, and this means extremely strict politics. Review process.

If, like Comrade Kobrov’s younger brother, recruit several double agents or enemy spies into his own intelligence team, then a big problem would arise.

As for the fourth task, it is about internal intelligence. For now, the focus of internal intelligence work is the investigation of German military intelligence and the encirclement and suppression of insurgents in various places, including the Caucasus.

In addition, the Supreme Command gave him another task, which was to provide training on intelligence gathering capabilities for the guerrillas, which was also a very tedious task.

However, for Victor, he is now accustomed to this busy life, and when he is busy, he still has time to deal with his own women. From this point of view, he seems to be more than an experienced person. The intelligence personnel of, is also a very competent master of time management.

Sitting behind the desk and smoking a cigarette, just when he was about to pinch the cigarette **** out in the ashtray, the people from the Intelligence Analysis Department sent the aggregated information.

Now, Victor has developed a habit. The first thing after arriving at the office every day is to go through the latest intelligence data compiled by the Intelligence Analysis Department to make sure that the classification is correct, and to select the more important part. Pass it to the corresponding departments.

However, the person who sent the intelligence today is somewhat special. It is not the deputy director of the Intelligence Analysis Division who is responsible for delivering documents, but a tall, blond, middle-aged handsome guy. Look at the military accessories on his body. This is a man. Lieutenant colonel.

"Why are you, Andre?" Seeing the middle-aged handsome man walking in with the documents, Victor hurriedly got up and greeted with a smile, "Where are the people from the Intelligence Analysis Department?"

"It happened to be at the top of the stairs," the middle-aged man called Andre said with a smile, "Anyway, I want to come to you, so I will bring it for you."

"Oh? Are you about to come to me?" Victor smiled and walked around from behind the desk, asked the other person to sit down on the sofa, and asked, "Is Comrade Feijing have any new tasks?"

The person here is Andre Grauul, who used to be Fitin's assistant, who was responsible for the restoration of the Soviet intelligence station in the United States.

The establishment of the Soviet intelligence station in the United States was relatively late, starting in the 1930s. Because the United States did not pay enough attention to counterintelligence work in the United States, the Soviet intelligence station in the United States developed rapidly.

But four years ago, due to the rebellion of Vitaker Chembos, the main liaison officer of the intelligence war in the United States, this guy didn’t want to be a spy anymore, so he switched to “Time” as an editor and took advantage of a reception. Opportunity to get acquainted with Adolf Bailey, then Assistant Secretary of State and the President’s Adviser to the Interior and Security Affairs, and subsequently sold the intelligence he had in his hands to Adolf.

As a result, the Soviet intelligence station in the United States was hit hard. A large number of experienced and hidden spies and liaison officers were all arrested. It can be said that this intelligence station is basically abolished.

After that, Grauer accepted the reconstruction work of the intelligence station in the United States, and in less than four years later, he successfully completed this task. Now, the Soviet tentacles in the US Intelligence Agency not only penetrated into the Pentagon, but also penetrated into key departments such as the Military Industrial Administration and the Strategic Intelligence Agency headquarters. The Strategic Intelligence Agency was later the CIA.

Therefore, this is also a very capable intelligence officer and an absolute cron of Comrade Feijing.

"Ha, Comrade Committee member joked, how dare he assign tasks to you," Graul said, sitting on the sofa, "Professional. After Comrade Serov issued the order to form a special radio communications battalion, we have already cooperated with you. Commissioner Ivan Trentovic has conducted consultations. With the support of comrades, we have obtained the first batch of radio stations and directional devices. The number is 86 radio stations and 29 directional devices."

Two "comrades" appeared in Grauul's mouth. The first comrade naturally refers to Victor, and the second comrade Ivan Trentovich refers to Ivan Trentovich. ? Peresipkin. Of course, the latter "committee" is worth more than Victor's. He is the Deputy People's Commissar of the People's Committee of National Defense and the Director of the Soviet Red Army Communications Directorate.

Peresipkin’s predecessor was the hapless Gapić. He was dismissed from his post by Comrade Stalin due to poor communications at the beginning of the war last year and joined the labor camp. According to the historical trajectory of Victor’s previous life, he needed to work. The camp was transformed to 1953. When he was released from prison, his former subordinate, Comrade Peresipkin, was already the marshal of the communications soldier.

"Originally, we should have brought this batch of equipment directly, but because of the large amount, Comrade Ivan Trentovich asked our committee department to arrange at least one committee member to receive it," Graul Continued, "But you know, Comrade Ivan Trentovich and..."

Speaking of this, he shrugged with a wry smile, and said: "There is a contradiction between them, so..."

"Oh, I see," Victor said with a smile, "Since Comrade Feijing is not suitable to come forward, let me go."

There is indeed a contradiction between Feijing and Peresipkin, because the latter was nearly killed by Comrade Feijing in 38 years. It is precisely because of this relationship that Victor was able to treat related equipment so quickly. Can receive some surprises.

"It just so happens that I also have something to find Comrade Ivan," Victor stood up, walked to the inside of his desk, bent over and took out a stack of letters from a drawer, and said, "I'll do it together."

The stack of letters in his hand is all triangular, which is also the basic style of all letterheads in the Soviet army. Of course, the reason why they are folded in this way is not for aesthetics, but because a large number of paper mills have switched to military industry, so there is a shortage of envelopes. This kind of triangular letter is directly folded on letterhead.

"That's great," Graul said with a smile, standing up from the sofa, "Thank you very much, Comrade Victor."
