Struggle in Soviet Russia

In the wars of the past few years, the alliance has undoubtedly suffered huge losses. Although the post-war reconstruction committees have already been established, and as the Soviet army's front moved westward, reconstruction committees have also been established in various places, but a very realistic The problem is that in the case of suffering such heavy losses, it will inevitably take a long process to rely on the strength of the alliance to seek recovery.

In addition, in the process of the German invasion of the Soviet Union, both the German army and the army of its servant countries plundered a large amount of materials and people from the territory of the Soviet Union. According to the statistics of the Reconstruction Commission, in the past few years of war, Germany has The gold that its servant countries plundered from the alliance alone amounted to nearly 24,000 kilograms, and the plundered population was as high as five million.

Therefore, as retribution for this war and compensation for the alliance, Moscow believes that after the war, the alliance's plunder of Germany and its war servants is also a matter of course. This is a tooth for a tooth and an eye for an eye.

Since the Soviet Red Army pushed the front out of the Union's territory and advanced to Eastern Europe, a "special committee" headed by Malenkov was quickly established. Even minerals, works of art, etc., all materials have been confiscated. Especially for industrial facilities, everything that can be demolished will be demolished, and those that cannot be demolished will be directly blown up.

After these corresponding resources are transferred to the territory of the alliance, the special committee will immediately classify all the materials. If they can be directly invested in the restoration and construction of the liberated area, they will be directly invested in it. If they cannot be invested, they will find a way to use international trade. digested.

In the process of carrying out the work of the Special Committee, it is necessary to cooperate from the People's Commissariat of National Security. After all, the Foreign Intelligence Bureau of the People's Commissariat of National Security has a large amount of intelligence information on Germany and its servant countries. Work is very useful.

When I left Malenkov's residence, it was already early morning, and it was Malenkov's driver who sent Viktor back to his residence.

Back at the villa on the boulevard, Victor took off his coat in the living room on the first floor, changed a pair of shoes, and then frowned and walked upstairs slowly.

Meeting with Malenkov tonight made Viktor aware of the complexity of the situation in Moscow.

When Victor was reborn into this world, he was still a little guy at the bottom, and the Alliance has been at war throughout his rapid ascension.

How should I put it, the war is indeed cruel and catastrophic, but it is undeniable that in the process of the war, the politics of the alliance is relatively simple. In the inner circle of power in Moscow, everyone I don't have much else to think about, just thinking about how to maintain the operation of the alliance, how to win this war, and how to ensure that every victory is won.

To sum it up in one sentence, during the war, everything in the entire alliance is serving the war, and everyone has no time to intrigue.

But now, as the war draws to a close, all kinds of problems are coming, and their complexity is staggering. The key point is that these complicated problems are also mixed with intrigue and entanglement of interests, which is really annoying.

To be honest, Victor doesn't like things that are too complicated. If possible, he doesn't even want to be involved in any political struggle, just do his job well and get a promotion based on his ability, isn't it good?

But the reality tells him that it is really not good, because sometimes if you want to do your job well, you have to clear some people who are in front of you, and those who set up obstacles may not necessarily have anything in themselves. Bad minds, they may just have their own ideas and want to do the same job in the way they think is right.

Take the various disputes that have appeared at the previous Central Plenary Sessions, from the perspective of Victor, a traveler, among the three different economic propositions, whose proposition is the most realistic? Undoubtedly, it should be said that Comrade Zhdanov's proposition is the most reasonable. The coalition does need to focus enough on the production of consumer goods, and this should be a long-term economic policy, not just a temporary means of restoring the economy in the short term.

As for the post-war reconstruction and the choice of key areas for economic construction, Victor agreed that the alliance should focus on the central and eastern regions.

But the problem is that when everyone considers issues such as economic viewpoints, they also need to consider the issue of political stance, and Viktor's political stance determines that he cannot cater to Comrade Zhdanov's economic viewpoint, that is to say, He can't just think about which way he thinks is right, and that's where the complexity of the problem lies.

The cotton slippers stepped on the carpet on the stairs, making a faint sound. Victor walked upstairs absentmindedly, turned the corner of the stairs, and saw the door of the living room on the second floor open, a woman in pink pajamas, She was lying on the sofa sleeping, her long fluffy hair covered her face, but in the gap at the hem of the pajamas, two round and greasy thighs were exposed - who else could it be if it wasn't An Lina.

Victor walked to the door of the living room, and before entering the door, he heard the hissing noise of the gramophone in the corner of the living room, which was the sound after the disc was finished.

Silently walking through the door, Victor turned off the phonograph first, then walked to the sofa, picked up a blanket that had fallen on the carpet, and threw it on the single sofa beside him. When bending over to pick up An Lina, he glanced at a file folder on the coffee table.

It was a red file folder with a red wax seal on it. Obviously, this is a relatively important intelligence document, and I don't know when it was sent.

After hesitating for a while, Victor brought the blanket over and carefully covered it over An Lina, then sat on the sofa next to him and checked the wax seal on the document.

The wax seal is complete, and there is no problem with the hidden logo of the People's Commissariat of State Security printed on it, which means that it has not been opened.

Victor broke the wax seal of the document, and the two documents slipped out of the folder.

He took out the two documents and put the folder on the coffee table aside. Unexpectedly, because of absent-mindedness, the folder slid to the ground, making a soft click.

Although the sound was very soft, An Lina, who was sleeping on the sofa, was woken up, her body shook slightly, and then she sat up from the sofa.

Perhaps she had just woken up and her mind was still a little sluggish. She stared at Victor for a while, then sighed and asked, "What time is it?"

"It's three o'clock soon," Victor said with a smile, looking at his watch, "Isn't it that you don't have to wait for me, why are you sleeping here?"

"Nino sent you a document," An Lina covered her mouth and yawned lightly, then put down her legs, stood up from the sofa, and said, "I want to remind you when you come back. You ended up falling asleep here."

After saying this, she asked again, "Want something to drink?"

"Coffee," Victor said, raising Erlang's legs, "make me a cup of coffee, and then you can go to sleep."

An Lina nodded and walked towards the small bar in the living room with bare feet.

Glancing at her graceful back, Victor turned his attention to the document at hand.

The first document is clearly from the New York Intelligence Service, because the New York Intelligence Service designation is on the front of the document.

Victor opened the file and took a closer look.

The document involves an agreement between the United Kingdom and the United States, called the Anglo-American Oil Agreement. According to the agreement, once the war is over, the oil fields of Persia, that is, Iran, will belong to the United Kingdom, while the oil fields of Iraq and Kuwait will belong to the United Kingdom. Oil will be jointly controlled by the United Kingdom and the United States, while Saudi Arabia's oil resources will belong to the United States.

In fact, the Foreign Intelligence Service had been monitoring American oil exploration operations in the Middle East, since the assistant director of the US Energy Administration, a man named Everett Lee de Greer, had been , he has already led a team to the Middle East to carry out oil exploration activities. This is no secret, it is almost an open operation.

De Greer is not a simple person. He went to Mexico to engage in oil exploration at the beginning of this century, where he discovered a large oil field with a daily output of 110,000 barrels of crude oil, and made a lot of money.

And earlier this year, the guy returned to Washington from Saudi Arabia and filed a secret report.

So far, the Foreign Intelligence Service has not obtained the relevant content of this secret report, so it is not known what kind of results this guy's exploration activities in the Middle East have come up with. But as a traveler, Victor didn't need to read the report to know what Deglier found. There is no doubt that this guy discovered the amazing oil reserves of Saudi Arabia. Therefore, the United States can't wait to cooperate with the United Kingdom. People finalized the basic agreement on the division of oil and energy after the war.

It is a pity that although Victor is well aware of the amazing oil resources in Saudi Arabia, the alliance has no power or influence in the Middle East, but one thing is certain, that is, the alliance must not sit idly by the United Kingdom and the United States. Simply sign such an agreement to divide the power map of the post-war Middle East.

Most importantly, the alliance must not sit idly by while the British dominate Iran's oil resources after the war, let alone allow the British to use Iran as their own sphere of influence.

So, in this case, the coalition has to do something, say, leak to London that Saudi Arabia has staggering oil reserves.
