Struggle in Soviet Russia

Coming out of the Kremlin and sitting in his car, Victor only felt physically and mentally exhausted. The only thing he wanted to do now was to go home and take a good shower, then leave everything alone and sleep comfortably all day.

However, for him today, this idea is undoubtedly a luxury, because at nine o'clock in the morning, there is a meeting for all members of the committee to attend. In addition, Eitingo’s actions in the Urals are said to have He also listens to reports on new developments.

Varenka drove until the headquarter building of the National Security People's Committee on the boulevard. He parked the car on the steps in front of the building, got out of the car first, and opened the door for Victor.

When Victor got out of the car, a young man in the uniform of the National Security People's Committee came in the direction of the parking lot. The young man looked at most in his early thirties, tall and burly, and handsome.

Although young, looking at the tie on his chest, he is already a national security major.

"Good morning, Comrade Victor!" Seeing Victor getting off the car, the young man quickly stood up straight, saluting the army, and said loudly.

Victor responded with a smile and said: "Good morning, Comrade Nikolai Ivanovich."

After a pause, he then asked: "When will you return to Moscow?"

"Last night," the young man put down his hand and walked over to Victor, "but I have to go back this afternoon."

"How is the situation in Kiev?" Victor nodded, and asked as he reached out to take the young man's arm as he walked up the stairs.

"Not so good," said the young man. "The Germans have recently stepped up their campaign against the guerrillas. The nationalist guerrillas are also intensifying their activities. Our troops are under a lot of pressure."

The young man named Nikolai Ivanovich Kuznetsov is an agent of the People’s Committee for National Security. He is currently commanding a guerrilla unit named "Medvedev" in Ukraine, which is also from Lviv. Between Kiev, the largest guerrilla.

Even though Nikolai is very young, he is very capable. He is proficient in Polish, Ukrainian and German. Not only is he a commander of the Medvedev guerrillas, but he also penetrated into the German army under the pseudonym Paul Zibert. Became a lieutenant of the German crusade.

"However," Nikolai replied with a smile after briefly introducing the situation in Kiev, "We eliminated Bauer in the operation planned two weeks ago. I have prepared the relevant report, and then Will be submitted."

"Oh, this is really good news," Victor laughed. "I think Eitingo should be happy for two days."

The Bauer mentioned by Nicholas refers to the current German deputy governor of Galicia. The work done by the Medvedev guerrillas is not only the guerrilla struggle behind enemy lines, but also the terrorist operations carried out against the German forces, including the assassination of key German soldiers.

Initially, when Nikola accepted the appointment to go to Kiev, his task was to assassinate Ukrainian Governor Erich Koch. However, Koch was very vigilant and guarded by his side. In addition, he was lucky enough to hide behind him. After four assassinations organized by Nikolai.

However, although he failed to successfully kill Koch, in the past less than a year, the assassination activities organized by Nicholas also yielded great results. Among the high-ranking German officials he killed were those of the Council of Governors of Ukraine. Committee members, there were also advisers from the Governor's House, and even Koch's secretary was killed by him.

In order to catch and kill Nikolai, Koch even offered a gold reward, but now, this young man is still alive and happily.

"Now, Eitingo should be waiting for the meeting in the conference room," the two entered the building together, and Victor said to Nikola as they entered the elevator. "You can go to his office and wait a while."

"Okay, comrade committee," Nikolai nodded and responded.

The two broke up on the third floor, and Victor walked to the right along the corridor and went directly to the meeting room.

The door of the conference room was open, and the inside was pitch black, but the big screen for the slide show was on.

Victor walked in, adjusted to the light, and saw Eitingo and Fitin sitting on the sofa in front of the curtain smoking a cigarette.

"Where is Comrade Serov?" Victor asked as he walked over, sat down on an empty sofa, and reached out to take a pack of cigarettes from Fitin's hand.

"He feels a little uncomfortable. He asked a doctor to come over and is undergoing an examination. Come here later," Comrade Feijing handed over his lighter and explained at the same time.

"Are you okay?" Victor asked, taking out a cigarette and lighting it up.

"I'm sick, it shouldn't be a big problem," said Comrade Feijing.

Serov had severe stomach problems and ulcers for many years.

Victor nodded and said to Eitingo: "Just now I just met Nikolai Ivanovich Kuznetsov. I heard that the comrades of the guerrillas killed Bauer?"

"Yes," Eitingo said, nodding. "I heard his report last night. The official report will not be available until the afternoon."

The tone paused, and he continued: "In my opinion, their actions are a bit rash. Recently, the Germans have been pursuing frequent clearance operations in Ukraine. They should be preparing for the summer offensive. The guerrillas should not be at this time. Focus on the T action."

The so-called "T operation" is actually terrorist operations, referring to operations such as assassinations.

"That's right, how is your side?" Feijing asked intermittently, "have the war on the southern front started?"

"Initiated, the information we got is accurate," Victor said. "Comrade Zhukov's feedback, the artillery countermeasures launched in the direction of Sevsk have been very effective."

Afterwards, he briefly introduced what he had learned, including the current situation of the war on the southern front.

Hearing what he said, whether it was Eitingo or Feijing, he was relieved.

Although Victor is responsible for intelligence work within the NKVD, the entire NKVD is integrated, and the work of various departments is inextricably linked. If Victor’s work is not done well, it is hard to say right. They will not be involved.

Three people were talking, footsteps came from the direction of the door, but Serov in military uniform walked in.

The three hurriedly stood up, and Feijing asked first: "How is the inspection?"

"I'm sick," Serov walked over, motioned the three of them to sit down again, and sighed at the same time, "The doctor only suggested to pay attention to the diet, what else can be done?"

After speaking, he raised his hand and said to the female captain standing by the curtain: "It's time to start."

Regardless of the fact that this female soldier with the rank of captain is still very young, she is already the head of the Confidential Secretariat of the Committee Department. She is responsible for explaining every committee meeting.

An image soon appeared on the screen of the slideshow. It was a photo of a middle-aged man with a thin face. At the same time, the captain began to explain.

In the past two months, the Counterintelligence Agency has taken covert operations in the Ural region to investigate the German secret intelligence organization codenamed "Hamster".

Since all investigations must be carried out in secret without disturbing the enemy, this has greatly increased the difficulty of this investigation. However, so far, the Counterintelligence Bureau has made some progress.

In the captain’s commentary, the pictures on the screen were changed one by one. The suspects involved were 17 people in total. All of them have official and legal identities, and they have a wide range of identities, including officers of the border guards. , There are also factory workers, and even a power plant engineer.

"According to the investigative intelligence currently held by the Counterintelligence Agency," the captain finally fixed the picture of the slide on an image of an obese woman. "This person is very likely the German secret informant we are looking for."

The picture was changed to another, and it was still the fat woman, but the angle of the shot was different.

"Ekaterina Kabeshova," the captain continued, "I am currently an accountant at the 100 tank manufacturing plant. We investigated her past experience, but did not find anything possible. The only suspicious point is that she is in From 1933 to 1937, he was a member of the No Wire Club."

"Why do you suspect that she is a secret informant?" Serov asked with a frown.

"Our radio directional team has identified four radio transmission points in the past two months," the captain explained. "According to our surveillance records, among these four radio transmission points, only Cabe Sau The baby has access records alone, but none of the remaining sixteen suspects appeared near the reporting point."

"What do you think? Victor," Serov asked, turning his head, looking at Victor.

"The reason for this suspicion is far-fetched," Victor said. "The whistleblower just mastered the encryption method and might not send the report in person."

Serov nodded, turned his head and said to Eitingo: "I agree with Comrade Victor's opinion. The Counterintelligence Bureau will also strengthen the follow-up investigation work, as we determined at the previous committee meeting, this latent German army Intelligence organization is very important to our future work, Comrade Aitingo, your work must be more detailed."

Aitingo nodded and said: "We have now arranged a total of six teams in charge of this investigation, but the progress of the work is not satisfactory."

"Be patient," Serov said, "this is a protracted battle."

Victor interrupted and said, "I have a new idea."

The attention of the three people was drawn to him.

"Now that we have identified seventeen suspects," Victor said, "So, can we try to decipher their secret codes by revealing some specific false information to them?"
