Struggle in Soviet Russia

By the time the news of Lviv reached Moscow, it was already late at night. As the second lieutenant of the civilian police said, the tragedy that occurred in Lavalokaya was no longer something they could handle, not only they could not handle it. Even the NKVD in Lviv could not handle it. Therefore, the relevant report soon arrived in Kiev, and then passed on to Moscow through Kiev.

Victor got the news from Comrade Stalin. A Kremlin staff made a special trip to the villa where Victor lived and sent a photocopy of the report document to him. Comrade Stalin wrote on the document. The instruction, roughly, means that the Internal Intelligence Service of the People’s Commissar of National Security must appoint the leader of the Ukrainian resistance army nicknamed "Yastrub" and the follower of Stepan Bandera Demeter within a week. Luo Kalpenko pulls it out.

Comrade Stalin didn't care about this guy's life or death. In short, he wanted to see people when he lived and the corpse when he died.

Victor, who received the report, rushed back to the headquarters of the National Security People’s Committee overnight, and gathered several heads of the Internal Intelligence Agency, the Counter-Spyware Agency, and the Ideological Defense Agency for a small-scale discussion. meeting.

Dmitro Kalpenko is indeed the leader of the Ukrainian Resistance Army. In the past period of time, he was very active in Western Ukraine. Although the NKVD launched several encirclement and suppression campaigns against him, he was never killed in the end.

This time, this guy was obviously crazy. He created a tragedy that shocked the Alliance and even the world in Lavalokaya.

This person led a group of Ukrainian rebels and intercepted a train from Berzhec to Lavalokaya in the village of Macyevi near Lavalokaya. After that, they boarded the train. All the tourists in drove down, selected all the Poles among them, and killed them cleanly.

Not only that, they later found out all the Poles in Maciewe Village and killed them all. In the end, the police from the Lavalokaya Workers and Peasants Police Headquarters were all in the village and in the nearby woodland. 174 corpses were found, whether they were adults or children, all of them were tortured and killed by these people.

The headquarters of the People's Committee of National Security, in the office of the chairman. Victor sat behind his desk, and carefully looked at the documents on the table in front of him with the light from the table lamp.

What was presented to him at this time was mainly a thick stack of photos. The people in these photos were all targets that the Internal Intelligence Bureau will focus on searching for in the future, including: the nickname "Bald" Ivan Krimchak of Russia; Dmitro Kalpenko, nicknamed "Yastrub"; Ivan Dichuk, nicknamed "Carpathians", known as "Commander-in-Chief" Roman Shukhevich.

Of course, people such as Stepan Bandera, Mikola Lebed, and Roman Kolyachkivsky are the focus of the Internal Intelligence Agency's attention.

Comrade Stalin requested that Kalpenko be captured within a week, so for Victor, he can't just be satisfied with the capture of Kalpenko. All the leaders of the Ukrainian rebels are the targets he needs to capture.

In Victor’s view, these anti-Soviet and anti-Alliance armed organizations are getting more and more fierce in the newly liberated West Ukraine, West Belarus, and even in southeastern Poland. If no decisive measures are taken, they will be arrogant. If the suppression continues, there will be no lasting peace at all.

In fact, the contradiction between Ukrainians and Poles can be said to have a long history. Today's Poles and Ukrainians are not like later generations. Poles live in Poland and Ukrainians live in Ukraine. On the contrary, these two Ethnic groups are mixed to a large extent. In West Ukraine, there are close to one million Poles, while in eastern Poland, there are more than 600,000 Ukrainians.

People of these two ethnic groups have lived together for a long time. Sometimes there are both Ukrainians and Poles in a village. The ethnic situation is very complicated.

Beginning in 43, with the release of Stepan Bandera from prison, the activities of the Ukrainian rebels began to become more frequent, and the mutual vendetta between the two ethnic groups began. The mixed living of multiple ethnic groups is the breeding of this ethnic group. The best soil for vendetta.

Just this spring, some Polish nationalists launched a massacre against Ukrainians in Lublin, Poland. Among them, there was even the participation of the Polish National Army, such as the massacre in the village of Sagren in March. , More than 800 Ukrainians were massacred by the Polish National Army, and the entire village was killed.

And this time Kalpenko’s massacre in the village of Macieve was supposed to be an act of revenge against the massacre in Verkhovina in June. In that massacre, the ultra-right underground organization in Poland The "National Armed Forces" massacred nearly two hundred Ukrainians in the village of Verkhovina.

Nowadays, it can be said that the Ukrainian nationalist organization has been on the line with the Polish nationalist organization. The two sides slaughter each other when you come and go. You use an axe, I use a double-sided saw, and you behead your head. It seems to be looking at whose methods are more brutal.

For the Red Army of the Soviet Union, in the Belarusian campaign and the campaign to advance into Romania, the advancement of the troops was too fast, and the consolidation of the rear liberated areas was not solid enough to provide sufficient living space for these anti-government paramilitary organizations. , It also makes them more and more arrogant and noisy.

If we put it in the past, Comrade Stalin might not be so concerned about incidents like the Lavalosskaya incident, but the problem is that when this massacre happened, the train went from Berzhec to Lava. There were also two British journalists on the train in Roskaya. Those Ukrainian rebels not only failed to kill the two British journalists, but also allowed them to take a large number of photos during the massacre.

In other words, the impact of this tragedy is not limited to the inside of the alliance. It has already had an impact internationally, and it has had a very bad impact on the national image of the alliance. Therefore, Moscow must make the perpetrators pay the price.

After reading the photos at hand one by one, Victor took out several of Kalpenko and put them aside, and then took out a detailed map of Eastern Galicia from the drawer.

Kalpenko is a very rude guy with a beard on his face, brutal, bloodthirsty, and bloodthirsty, but such a person is regarded as a hero by the West Ukrainians.

Although Victor didn't know much about Soviet history in his previous life, he really heard the name of this guy, not just this guy, similar to Roman Shukhevich, Mikola Lebed, and Roman Kolya. He is very familiar with the names of these people like Chikivsky, because in the era when he lived, these people were regarded as national heroes by the Ukrainians.

Victor had no interest and was unable to resolve the conflict between Poles and Ukrainians. In his previous life, this conflict was resolved by Comrade Stalin. Yes, the propaganda of later generations always criticized the national migration policy during Comrade Stalin's rule. But in fact, the feud between Ukrainians and Poles was resolved peacefully by this policy. A Soviet-Polish "Resident Exchange" agreement, a "Vistula operation", the history of vendetta between Poles and Ukrainians is completely over.

As for Victor, his only consideration now is to kill all these people on the blacklist of the Internal Intelligence Agency. This is his job and his responsibility.

Interestingly, a memory from a previous life provided Victor with a very important clue, and this clue was about Ivan Dicchuk, the guy nicknamed "Carpathians", who belonged to the Ukrainian Resistance Army. The core figure is equivalent to being Stepan Bandera's security adviser.

In Victor’s previous life, I saw a piece of news about a place called Tatar Village in the Transcarpathian Oblast of Ukraine. A resident erected a statue for Ivan Dicchuk, which attracted the Polish government. protest.

It was mentioned in the news at the time that Ivan Dicchuk had been hiding in this village since 1943, until he was finally captured and executed by the NKVD.

Regrettably, the news at the time only mentioned the Tatar village in Zakarpattia Oblast. As for the specific location of this village, it did not mention it. However, for Victor, this is obviously nothing. , The two pieces of information in his memory were enough for him to locate the exact location of the village.

After looking at the map for a while, Victor tried to find this Tatar village, but the final result was obviously not as good as he wanted, and he had to give up temporarily.

He recorded the name of Ivan Dicchuk in the notebook at hand, and then wrote down the names of the places in the memory of his previous life, and then he aimed at the next character: Ivan Klimchak, nicknamed "Bald". . Also in Victor's previous life, Shatsk, in the Voron region of Ukraine, also erected a statue for this guy, and this statue was also erected where he was executed by the NKVD.

How helpful this information is to Victor is still uncertain, because he doesn't know whether Ivan Krimchak is in Shatsk or not, and he doesn't even know whether this person is in Warren State. But that’s okay, it’s always right to list this place as a focus area.

Of course, for Victor, the main task at the moment is to capture Kalpenko, after all, Comrade Stalin is staring at this, because there is not much memory of this guy in the memory of his previous life. Victor can only use the method of screening, trying to find his hiding place.
