Struggle in Soviet Russia

In Victor's mind, Rokosowski is a very good person, even though he is a Polish.

Victor himself can't tell why he has such a perception. If you think about it carefully, it may be related to Rokosowski's no hostility towards him.

As a person from the NKVD and serving in the NKVD, Victor has been able to feel the hostility, or at least rejection, from the generals for a long time. Among the generals he had contacted in the past, except for those who came from the cavalry army, that is, Rokosovsky and those around him had no hostility towards him, such as Malinin and so on.

Not only that, before the outbreak of the Belarusian campaign, Malinin, who was the chief of staff of the Belarusian First Front Army, visited Viktor in place of Rokosovsky. Viktor had never encountered such a thing in the past.

People are all like this, it is always easier to have a good impression of those who are friendly.

"In the past few years of wars, foreign intelligence work was of course the main work of the People’s Committee of National Security." He took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, drew one out and handed it to Rokosovsky, then gave himself another one. Support, Victor continued, “With the technology of war, foreign intelligence work is destined to no longer be the main work direction of the committee. Therefore, it is inevitable to turn attention to the inside.”

In fact, like this, Victor has no need to tell Rokosovsky, after all, the other party's work has nothing to do with the national security agency. In addition, even though Rokosovsky is now the Marshal of the Soviet Union, his marshal is different from Konev and his like because his party positions are not high enough.

People such as Konev were not only Soviet marshals, but also members of the Central Committee, or at least an alternate member of the Central Committee, but Rokosovsky was not, and Victor was an out-and-out member of the Central Committee. Therefore, Roko Sofsky's rank is actually lower than Victor's.

However, when Victor gets along with people, he obviously doesn't take the level more seriously, at least in Rokosovsky's case.

Seeing a worried look on Rokosovsky’s face, Victor smiled, and then said: “However, despite the adjustments in work, the future work of the Counter-Spy and Internal Intelligence Agency will remain the same. It is completely different from before the war."

At this time, Varenka moved a chair out, and behind him, followed by a staff member, brought them coffee.

The most important reason why the work adjustment of the People’s Committee for National Security has attracted so much attention is that most people are worried about the repetition of history and that with the end of the war, the big one before the war. The scale of cleaning will come again.

"According to the adjustment plan this time," Victor sat down in his chair, took a cup of coffee from the tray held by the staff, and then said, "In the future, the Counter-Spionage Agency, the Internal Intelligence Agency, and the Ideological Defense Agency will be formed. In a joint meeting, the three departments, while strengthening communication and cooperation, shifted the main direction of their work to the suppression of domestic rebellions and anti-government guerrillas."

Rokosovsky listened very seriously, and he could see that he was also very concerned about this matter.

"The reason why I am here this time is not just for hunting," Victor smiled. "The main reason is that the People's Committee of National Security will set up four special forces to deal with terrorist activities. I plan to set up here. A dedicated training base."

"Oh," Rokosovsky nodded, and then asked, "I heard that the Central Supervisory Committee will also make certain adjustments this time. Is this also related to the work adjustments of your National Security People's Committee?"

"It shouldn't be," Victor shook his head and smiled.

The adjustment of the Central Supervisory Committee mentioned by Rokosovsky was related to the previous report submitted by Comrade Zhdanov. The main proposal was to increase the number of members of the Central Supervisory Committee.

To tell the truth, that’s all about the current Central Supervisory Committee. The initial role of this institution should be a major component of the Bolshevik party’s supervisory system. According to Comrade Lenin’s vision, the Central Supervisory Committee should have the same status as the Central Committee. In terms of status, that is, the members of the Central Supervisory Committee should be on the same level as the members of the Central Committee.

Before the 12th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, Comrade Lenin clearly put forward this request and proposed to implement it at the 12th National Congress of the Communist Party of China. However, his proposal was not fully implemented at the 12th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, because in accordance with the resolutions of the 12th National Congress, Alternate members of the Central Committee may serve as members of the Central Supervisory Committee, but in the Central Supervisory Committee, only members of the presidium can participate in the Central Plenary Session. This means that the members of the presidium of the Central Supervisory Committee are equal to the members of the Central Committee.

After that, the Central Supervisory Committee’s function could only be gradually weakened. First, in the 1930s, the functions of the Supervisory Committee completely changed, and then by the 17th National Congress of the Communist Party of China in 34, with the establishment of the new "Party Constitution", the Central Supervisory Committee The level of the committee has also been lowered and it has become a subsidiary of the Central Committee. In fact, the current Central Supervisory Committee and the National Security People’s Committee are at the same level, and the former’s powers cannot be compared with the latter.

However, in the past year or so, as Comrade Stalin promoted the basic-level party committee system within the alliance, he gradually realized the role of the Central Supervisory Committee.

Because according to the new party constitution enacted in 34 years, the supervisory organ no longer has the power to supervise the policies formulated by the party committee. In other words, the supervisory organ at the same level no longer has the supervision function over the party committee at the same level. Supervise whether the policies formulated by the party committees at the same level have been implemented and implemented.

To put it bluntly, it means that the party committees at the same level have no institutions to restrict them. This is obviously very detrimental to the promotion and smooth implementation of the grassroots party committee system.

It is precisely because of this that Comrade Stalin has consciously improved the status of the Central Supervisory Committee, and this time the adjustment of the work of the Central Supervisory Committee is based on this reason.

"This time the work of the Central Supervisory Committee is adjusted mainly to fight against the bureaucracy within the party." If Rokosovsky doesn't have much information about Moscow, then Victor is definitely a well-informed person. However, even though he is well informed, he can’t really tell what he has learned unobtrusively. “In addition, the leading comrades of the People’s Committee of National Defense are more concerned about the construction work after the war and worry about certain aspects. There will be problems, so ring the alarm first."

Just like Rokosowski’s concern, in addition to the work adjustments of the People’s Committee of National Security, many people have recently been concerned about the work adjustments of the Central Supervisory Committee.

The content of the adjustment of the Central Supervisory Committee this time is mainly to increase the number of committee members. According to the provisions of the party constitution, the appointment of the members of the Central Supervisory Committee is elected by the Central Committee. This was passed at the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China in 1949. The adjustment of the party constitution was confirmed, and this adjustment was tantamount to putting the Central Supervisory Committee under the Central Committee.

Because of this, news suddenly mentioned that the Central Supervisory Committee is going to increase the number of supervisory committee members. Many people think that the Central Committee’s plenary meeting is going to be held again, and the plenary meeting has not been held for many years. To pay attention.

"That's it." After listening to Victor's explanation, Rokosovsky really understood the situation. For these front-line commanders in foreign operations, although the military merits are not lacking, the news is relatively good. Occluded.

"Actually..." Staring at the burly marshal opposite, Victor looked hesitant.

"What's the matter?" Rokosovsky asked in surprise.

"Konstantin Konstantinovich," after hesitating for a long time, Victor finally decided to speak out his suggestion, "If you don't mind, I can provide you with a suggestion."

"Of course I don't mind," Rokosovsky said hastily.

"That's it," Victor thought for a while, and said, "You also know that the war is going to this point. If nothing goes wrong, the estimate of the General Staff should be accurate. That is to say, it will be next year at the latest. In August, this war should end."

"Of course," Rokosovsky said, nodding, "Actually, my estimate is more optimistic. Maybe we won't have to wait until August, and we will be able to conquer Berlin earlier. At present, the entire Belarusian First Front has already done so. After preparing for the invasion of Berlin, after a maximum of two or three months of rest, a new round of offensive will be able to unfold smoothly."

When he said these words, Rokosovsky’s expression showed a bit of excitement. It can be seen that he is full of expectations for a new round of offensive in a few months. Perhaps in his mind, The attack on Berlin will definitely be directed by him. After all, he is now the commander of the Belarusian First Front.

But Victor knew very well that the great honor of attacking Berlin was not harvested by the comrade Marshal in front of him. For now, whether it is the General Staff or the General Political Department, or whatever it is. The generals of the academic school, or the generals of the old cavalry army, are all earning you and me for this great honor.

Victor can't see who will win in the end, but he knows that Comrade Rokosovsky's name is definitely not on the list of winners.
