The Rise of the Third Reich

Alexei Alexanderovich Kuznetsov, Secretary W of Leningrad City, has an autographed letter sent from the Peter Palace on his desk in the Petrov Fortress - he does not know how this letter appeared in I don't want to know where it is. He had already read the content of the letter, and he still sincerely offered to recruit him. The positions of Duke and Minister of the Russian Empire were easily available. If he is not willing to "take care of two masters", he can also go into exile in Rome (the Roman Empire has not declared war on the Soviet Union now), and Olga will pay for all the expenses.

It was indeed a very good condition, and Kuznetsov also believed that the conditions offered by Olga were not false. Although he was an enemy, Kuznetsov still considered Olga to be more trustworthy than Stalin. Had he been a medieval lord rather than a communist warrior, he would have chosen to be loyal to Olga rather than the moody Stalin.

But Kuznetsov was a loyal communist fighter. Although historically, like Vlasov and Abakumov, he died at the hands of the Soviet Communist Party, the three Individuals’ true beliefs differ after all.

Vlasov graduated from the seminary and became an Orthodox priest. Serving God and the Tsar was his original ideal in life. Later, he was involved in the revolution and became a Christian hypocrite.

When Abakumov joined the Bolshevik Party, it was already a red country. Joining the army, joining the league, and joining the party are the three major events in life, and they are also the channels for the Soviet people to climb up. Whether they believe in communism is no longer important, what is important is to be an official.

And Kuznetsov really believes that GC doctrine can be realized. Even at this point, he still firmly believes that red flags will be planted all over the world, and GC doctrine will definitely be realized!

However, he also knew that he could not see the day when GC communism would win, and he would soon become a martyr for the GC communism cause.

Thinking of this, he picked up the autographed letter from the Empress of Russia and was about to take it to Abakumov's office to report when a rush of footsteps suddenly came from outside the door, and then the office door was suddenly pushed open. .

Kuznetsov saw Abakumov storming in with several heavily armed "blue hats".

"Kuznetsov, you are under arrest!" Abakumov shouted.

"Arrested...?" Kuznetsov was stunned for a moment, "Why?"

His reaction was the same as that of all fake reactionaries! At least in Leningrad, real reactionaries never ask why, they just draw their guns and shoot!

Just when he was in a daze, a "blue hat" suddenly snatched the letter from the Russian Empress that Kuznetsov was about to hand over, and then took a look at it and handed it to Abakumov. .

"Kuznetsov," Abakumov pretended to read the Queen's letter, and then said righteously, "The evidence of your betrayal of the party and people is conclusive, what else can you say?"

Is this evidence conclusive?

Kuznetsov stared blankly at Abakumov, who had a righteous look on his face. For a moment, he really didn’t know how to defend himself. In fact, no matter how he defended himself, it was useless. When he was arrested, he had so many weapons in his hands. Take the letter from the Russian Empress!

If this can be explained clearly, wouldn’t it mean that Kamenev, Zinoviev, Bukharin, Rykov, Tukhachevsky, etc. died unjustly?

"Catch him!" Abakumov saw that Kuznetsov was frightened - this was also a sign of Leningrad's fake *** - and immediately ordered him to be controlled.

The successful arrest of Kuznetsov and the irrefutable evidence that Kuznetsov rebelled against the party and surrendered to the enemy were obtained on the spot, which can be said to have removed the biggest obstacle for the Leningrad Army Group to defect to the enemy.

Because Kuznetsov is not alone in Leningrad. He is the secretary of Leningrad City and the political commissar of the group army. He also has many cadres loyal to the communist cause.

If these people are not uprooted, it will be difficult for the Leningrad Army to surrender to the enemy in an organized manner.

The most effective way to uproot these people is undoubtedly to fabricate a "Kuznetsov anti-GM traitor group." Now that the evidence of Kuznetsov's rebellion is conclusive, this group will naturally not escape.

But if we really want to purge the Leningrad Army, it is best to get Stalin's order, so that we can legitimately eliminate dissidents in the army.

Therefore, after obtaining the evidence and Kuznetsov's confession - Kuznetsov did not admit that he was a traitor and anti-GM. He only admitted that the Queen's letter appeared on his desk, and that he also read it. He got the letter and was arrested when he was about to hand it in.

Kuznetsov was a Bolshevik, and of course he could not be dishonest to the party. Although he knew that his confession would probably lead to death, he still truthfully confessed the problem and believed that Stalin could find out the truth.

On March 28, his testimony and fatal letters were taken to Moscow by a P-51 fighter jet that took off at night. Early the next morning, Beria personally handed it over to Stalin.

"Kuznetsov... how is that possible?" Stalin was stunned after reading the letter and Kuznetsov's confession. His first reaction was that he didn't believe it.

Kuznetsov is a loyal communist fighter. How could he rebel against the party?

"Comrade General Secretary, the evidence is conclusive!" Beria actually did not believe that Kuznetsov would rebel. In his order to Abakumov, the one to be wary of was Vlasov... Unexpectedly, Vlasov was not doing well, and Kuznetsov could not resist the temptation.

"Could there be a mistake?" Stalin still couldn't believe it.

"No." Beria replied firmly, "Experts from the NKVD have verified the notes, and they are absolutely correct."

Of course the letter is true. Prince Yusupov asked Queen Olga to write it - this is a trap to frame Kuznetsov. There are many letters written by the Empress in the archives of the NKVD, and there is absolutely no problem in verifying the handwriting.

Kuznetsov's confession was also written in his own handwriting. There are also piles of reports and other handwriting written by him in various yamen in Moscow. There is no problem in checking the notes.

"Will Kuznetsov be beaten?" Stalin asked.

Beria shook his head and said: "No, absolutely not... There's no case filed yet, how can it be possible to use torture?"

Stalin was right. The NKVD was not an unruly department. Kuznetsov is now only under isolation and control. He still holds the positions of Central Y Committee Member, City W Secretary and Army Political Commissar. How could he be beaten? If this can be beaten, why won't the NKVD rebel?

Therefore, if you want to beat him up, you have to order him, the general secretary, to beat Kuznetsov to the end, and then beat him after filing a case for review.

"Open a case for review!" Stalin thought for a while and finally made up his mind. In fact, he had already had a plan to capture Kuznetsov - the fall of most of Leningrad and the emergence of a large number of traitors in the Leningrad Front, Kuznetsov, Vlasov and A. Bakumov is responsible, especially Kuznetsov, who is responsible for the large number of traitors in Leningrad.

Therefore, it is necessary to capture Kuznetsov, Vlasov and Abakumov. It's just that it's a bit early to arrest now, after all, the Leningrad Army Group is still under siege.

"Tell Abakumov," Stalin ordered again, "Don't expand it. Just arrest a few of the chief criminals."

"I understand, Comrade General Secretary." Beria was fully aware of Stalin's thoughts. Stalin did not believe any "Leningrader", but now was not the time to launch a major purge of counter-revolutionaries in Leningrad. Otherwise, what was eliminated during the purge was not the reactionaries, but the last red flag in Leningrad.

However, although Comrade Stalin had good ideas, the reality was very cruel. Vlasov and Abakumov had long drawn up a list of arrestees - the list was not difficult to obtain. In the previous months, letters of persuasion to surrender from the Peter Palace (not all written by Olga, Most of them just signed.) Every cadre at or above the regiment level (including regiment level) in the siege of Leningrad received more than one.

Some of them turned over every letter to the Army Counterintelligence Service (as they should), where they were kept on file. Others did not hand in the letter due to various reasons, or they handed it in at first but not later.

Now the Army Counterintelligence Division only needs to arrest people according to the list of people who have submitted more than one surrender letter. Basically, there is no mistake. Therefore, on the night Stalin issued the order to open a case for review, thousands of people were arrested in the siege of Leningrad. Almost all of them are staunch GC-ism fighters...

The real wavering elements and reactionaries above the regiment level (including the regiment level) were summoned to the Peter and Paul Church in the Peter and Paul Fortress for a meeting on March 29.

"Comrades," Marshal Vlasov, commander of the army group, said in an extremely serious tone at the beginning of the meeting: "I want to tell you a very bad news. The army's food reserves will be exhausted in three days."

"What?"

"Oh my God!"

"This is how to do?"

The venue suddenly became excited, and everyone was shocked. Because Vlasov is not saying that the food supply is tight, but that there will be no food in 3 days!

Is this going to starve everyone to death?

Vlasov and Abakumov glanced at everyone's faces over and over again, and all they saw were panicked faces, and then they felt relieved.

Vlasov coughed, and the scene gradually became quiet again. He continued: "There are only two ways to go now. One is to launch a desperate charge against the German troops outside the encirclement in three days; the other is to attack Russia under the blessing of God." The empire surrenders!"
