Struggle in Soviet Russia
Chapter 369: introspection
Again, don’t think that all members of the National Security People’s Committee are loyal. Even those who have undergone the most rigorous training are still human beings. As long as they are individuals, they will inevitably have various weaknesses. And defects. Greed, selfishness, jealousy, hatred, etc., all negative emotions, even positive emotions such as love and family affection, will, under certain conditions, push a country from a final state to a betrayal of the people.
As the chairman of the National Security People’s Committee, Victor manages tens of thousands of staff in the entire committee, but this so-called management can only be nominal. It is impossible for him to know everyone in the committee, let alone Learn more about it. And he knew nothing about this Konstantin Volkov, he hadn't even heard of this person's name.
In the past two years, the working style of the People’s Committee of National Security has maintained the characteristics of high efficiency under the requirements of Victor. When he is looking for a person’s information, all the information of that person will be presented to him in the shortest possible time. At the desk.
At this time, Victor was sitting behind his desk, frowning at the information about Konstantin Volkov. The information included his resume and recent circumstances, and even his family's movements.
Konstantin Volkov, born in Krasno Turinsk in 1907, joined the Soviet Red Army in 1925, and transferred to the NKVD in 1938. When the NKVD was established, it was transferred to this new organization. And was transferred to the Soviet Embassy in Turkey in Ankara to engage in intelligence work as a civilian counsellor.
From this person's resume, there is no problem at all, at least there is nothing suspicious, but if you look at his recent itinerary, it is very suspicious, because just last week, his wife and two A child, also began to go through the situation procedures, the reason is to go to Ankara on holiday.
Fortunately, their related formalities have not been completed, and the family has not yet completed the trip. According to Victor’s guess, if the person who has the problem is really this Konstantin Volkov, then once his family leaves. Alliance, he may immediately implement a defection plan. According to the work he has done in the past, I dare not say that the loss to the Foreign Intelligence Agency is inevitable.
Now, whether the man who is preparing to commit the defection is Vulkov cannot be finalized, but it is necessary to take measures against him.
In his office, Victor issued a series of orders to arrange the arrests and even the remedial actions that should be taken after the arrest failed, and then he took the materials about Volkov with him. Rushed to the Kremlin.
On the way to the Kremlin, Victor felt a little nervous.
Comrade Stalin is a leader with a tough work style. He has never hesitated to praise people who do outstanding work, but he has never been polite to people who have mediocre work ability or even make mistakes in their work.
This time, the main work error obviously lay in the People's Committee of National Security, or more precisely, in the Foreign Intelligence Agency. Similar incidents have occurred before, and this is inevitable, but similar incidents that have occurred before have never been as dangerous as this time. Therefore, the ghost knows whether Comrade Stalin will be angry because of this.
The car arrived at the Kremlin and stopped in front of the small white building where Comrade Stalin was working. Victor got out of the car and went to Poskrebeshev’s office as usual, where he met the big secret comrade. Under the leadership of the other party, he went up to the second floor and went to Comrade Stalin's office.
Through the mouth of Poskrebeshev, Victor learned that Comrade Stalin was indeed very concerned about this matter. The reason why he has not slept until now is that he is waiting for follow-up news.
"Cambridge" intelligence personnel, including Donald McLean, are very important to Moscow’s intelligence work. To a certain extent, this intelligence system was established by the People’s Internal Affairs Commission before the establishment of the People’s Committee for National Security. The Soviet intelligence system had achieved the greatest success during the period when the Committee of the Committee was leading the foreign intelligence work. If this intelligence system were to eliminate problems, the loss of the alliance would be too great.
Not to mention anything else, let’s just talk about the personnel involved in this intelligence network. Its main members are high-level members of the Commonwealth. Among them are those responsible for British intelligence work, some are responsible for diplomatic work, and members of the British royal family. In addition, there are those who have been assigned to the United States to participate in nuclear weapons research and development. It is unceremonious to say that with this intelligence network, the British will not have any secrets in front of the Alliance. Otherwise, it will not be possible that "Constantine" is still planning to defect this time, and Moscow has already obtained it. After the news, this is the importance of the intelligence network.
Let’s talk about McLean. In the past, Britain and France appeased the Germans and secretly instigated Hitler to attack the Soviet Union. At that time, every time Zhang Bolin and his deputy met with Hitler, what they discussed, and what agreements they reached, Moscow was able to get news as soon as possible. , And the spy who relayed the news was McLean.
Just imagine, how could Comrade Stalin not pay attention to such an important intelligence personnel?
Following Poskrebeshev and walking to the door of Comrade Stalin’s office, Victor just greeted a group of doctors and nurses hurried out of the office—comrade Stalin is, after all, an older person, in his 60s or 70s. He is always drinking, smoking, and staying up late. How could he be in good health? That is, there is a special doctor who takes care of him all day long. If he was put on an ordinary person, something would have happened long ago.
Waiting for the doctor to leave, Victor walked into the office at the invitation of Poskrebeshev.
Sure enough, in the office, Comrade Stalin was sitting behind his desk taking medicine. He saw Victor coming in from the door. He threw the medicine in the palm of his hand into his mouth, took a glass of water next to him, and took the pills. , And then pointed towards the sofa in the middle of the office, which meant that Victor would go over and sit down.
Going slightly over, Victor took off his cap, and when he was about to sit down, he saw that Comrade Stalin had risen from the chair behind his desk. He hurriedly stood up again and waited for the other person to come over.
"How is the situation?" Comrade Stalin walked over unhurriedly, holding his pipe in his hand, and then asked when he sat on the sofa.
"We have almost locked the target," Victor said while sitting down on the coffee table in front of the sofa with the materials he had brought, "Furthermore, corresponding measures have been taken on the Istanbul consulate."
Comrade Stalin was obviously dissatisfied with his short answer. The leader comrade took out a pack of matches, fiddled with it, and said: "Be more specific."
Victor understands that what Comrade Stalin is talking about here is not only to hear what kind of countermeasures he has taken, but also to understand the whole process of the whole thing, because after receiving information, as a national security The Chairman of the People’s Committee, he did not report this matter in detail to Comrade Stalin.
After pondering for a moment, Victor organized the language, and then he received what kind of information he had received, what kind of content was involved in the information, etc., and so on. He explained all the arrangements he made later and why he made these arrangements in detail.
Comrade Stalin listened very carefully. During the whole process, he didn't say a word, but occasionally nodded or waved his hands to respond to Victor's explanation.
"Is this Konstantin Volkov's material?" When Victor finished speaking, Comrade Stalin picked up the material in front of him and asked casually while looking through it.
"Yes," Victor said, "For now, this person is the most suspicious. In addition to his name, Constantine, but also because his wife and two children are undergoing departure follow-up procedures. Of course. Before I came to the Kremlin, I had contacted the Tbilisi side, and the comrade there had already taken action to control his wife and children."
Comrade Stalin nodded, and did not look closely at the information in his hand. He closed the information he had just opened, and then threw it directly on the coffee table in front of him. He looked at Victor and said: At the meeting, I emphasized that those friends in London are very important to our intelligence work. More importantly, their identities are sensitive. Once their spy identity is exposed, the consequences will be disastrous. At least, it will have a profound impact on our alliance with Britain and the United States."
Victor said nothing, but nodded slightly. For now, the Cold War has not yet arrived and the alliance relationship between the Soviet Union, the United States and Britain still exists. Existence still has to be maintained.
At this time, if the espionage network of the "Cambridge Department" is exposed, it will inevitably cause an uproar in public opinion. At that time, Moscow will be in an absolute passive position in diplomacy. If nothing else, at least it will be very ugly.
Therefore, this is also one of the reasons why the "Cambridge series" spy network cannot be caught.
"This matter, your National Security People's Committee must make a serious summary," Comrade Stalin continued, "Why did this Konstantin Volkov's betrayal, no one noticed the slightest sign before? Go further. , Why do people like him appear? These issues are all you need to consider."
