Struggle in Soviet Russia

In fact, as the head of the intelligence department, Victor can easily learn the detailed information of everyone in the alliance, which also includes all the members of the Politburo, except of course, Comrade Stalin.

However, in a cautious manner, Victor has never looked up relevant information, he has not even touched those things.

His understanding of those leaders was also obtained through gossip. For example, he knew that Malinkov had a daughter and two sons, and he also knew that his tuition was very strict, especially his long-sleeved, good-looking wife who treated the children. The education issue of China is tightly grasped.

It is said that his eldest daughter, Voriya, is about to graduate from university, but she has never taken a vacation on her own. The children can get no more than 20 rubles every month at home, and she doesn’t know if it is true. Of fake.

In the crowd, Serov and Eitingo were found. Victor was about to get closer, but he felt the crowd suddenly commotion.

Following everyone’s gaze, Victor turned around and looked at the way he had just arrived. From a distance, he saw Comrade Stalin, accompanied by Molotov and Beria, walking towards this side while talking and laughing. .

Victor wanted to meet him, but at last he thought about it and gave up, just standing in the crowd and waiting.

After a while, the three of Comrade Stalin walked to the edge of the lawn. They didn't know who started the head. The crowd began to applaud, applause was very warm, everyone's face was full of smiles.

Naturally, Victor didn't seem to be too special, so he clapped and made an expression of excitement and excitement on his face, but he himself felt a bit fake.

Comrade Stalin stopped on the lawn and glanced at the crowd with a smile. Comrade Molotov, the vice chairman of the People’s Committee of National Defense who was next to him, raised his arms and made a downward press. gesture.

The applause stopped quickly, and the crowd was quiet.

"Comrades, today is a day worth celebrating," said Comrade Stalin, waiting for the crowd to calm down and squeezing his waist with one hand. "In Kursk, after two months of fierce fighting, our heroic Red Army soldiers, Obtained an irreversible advantage."

"good!"

"Long live!"

...

Warm applause broke out from the crowd again, and there were cheers in the meantime.

Comrade Stalin also clapped. While clapping his hands, he turned sideways, leaned into Molotov's ear and said something with a smile.

Of course it was impossible for Victor to hear what he was talking about, only to see Molotov nodded and his eyes began to search the crowd.

At this moment, Comrade Stalin stopped applauding, and the applause in the crowd also stopped.

"In Kursk, we gave the German fascists and the demon Hitler's servants a heavy blow," Comrade Stalin continued, "This is a battle that can determine the outcome. We have won, at least The scale of victory is on our side, and the next step we have to do is to retake all the land occupied by fascists, drive the Germans out of our land, and burn the flames of war on the enemy’s territory."

The crowd burst into applause again, and Victor could hear it. The applause was sincere this time, and the smile on everyone's face was also very sincere-no one likes war, except those with mental illness.

After saying this, Comrade Stalin clapped softly, turned his head again, and whispered something to Molotov.

Molotov nodded and waved to a young man outside the crowd.

The young man ran over quickly, and after receiving some instructions from Molotov, he turned and ran back into the crowd and started looking for people everywhere.

Comrade Stalin and the others obviously had no idea of ​​attending the ball. After speaking, they turned and walked towards the building of the resort.

Victor watched the young man go through the crowd, first found Serov and Eitingo, then Feijing who was talking with a middle-aged woman, and finally walked towards him.

Before the young man came to him, Victor greeted him. When the young man came to him, he heard him say: "Comrade Chief, Comrade Stalin wants you to go with him."

Victor nodded and did not walk away directly. Instead, he waited for the three of Serov to come before meeting them, leaving the crowd, and chasing Comrade Stalin and his party.

At first, Victor thought that Comrade Stalin and the others would go into the building. As a result, the group of people in front stopped when they reached the entrance of the building, standing on the stairs in front of the building and talking about something.

When the four of Victor greeted them, Comrade Stalin and the others also ended their conversation and turned to look at them.

"Comrades from the General Staff made a request today." When the four approached, Comrade Stalin said without waiting for them to speak, "I hope the National Security People’s Committee can further strengthen the special radio communications battalion. After our research, we believe that the existing special radio communications battalion should be expanded on the original basis, and the sequence should not be less than sixty."

Having said that, he paused, glanced at Serov, and continued: "If you have any difficulties, you can raise them. Both personnel and equipment will be given priority. However, you will also need to provide corresponding training. Get it right."

"We have already planned in this area before," Serov took over the topic and said, "Furthermore, we have also made some preparations. As far as the training of personnel is concerned, Dzerzhinsky College is specialized in this area. Work, so personnel is not a problem."

After speaking, he turned his face and looked at Feijing, who obviously gave him the following words.

"If we want to increase nearly forty special radio communication battalions," said Feijing, "the existing equipment of the committee department is far from insufficient, not only radio communication equipment, but also directional devices. , And help solve the gap in this regard."

Comrade Stalin nodded, but did not speak. Instead, Molotov said: "You can write a report to calculate the missing equipment, and the relevant departments will solve this problem for you within a week."

Feijing said: "Then we only need one month to one and a half months to complete this task."

"The time should be shortened as much as possible," Comrade Stalin seemed to be dissatisfied with this deadline. He frowned and said, "You don't have a month, let alone a month and a half. I need you to do it in half a month. this matter."

His tone is decisive, obviously there is no room for bargaining.

"In addition, Hull submitted an invitation from Washington to the People's Committee for Foreign Affairs this afternoon." Comrade Stalin shortened the deadline to the shortest, and then changed the topic. "Our allies are going to hold a meeting in Tehran. Both the President of the United States and the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom will attend, and I will also participate in this meeting as a representative. In this regard, you need to do a good job in the preliminary work."

While speaking, he turned his gaze to Victor and said, "Comrade Victor, you are ready to work, understand?"

He only said to make preparations, but didn't say which aspects of the preparations should be done, but Victor understood that it meant to make him do all the preparations, including security, intelligence, accompanying and so on.

What Victor doesn't understand now is why Comrade Stalin should entrust this work to himself. It stands to reason that Comrade Serov is the best choice. In the People's Committee of National Security, he is the head, the one who catches the chief.

But he couldn't raise the question in his heart face to face, otherwise, it would be deliberate evasion of responsibility, and the consequences would be serious.

"I see, Comrade Stalin," Victor nodded with a thoughtful question.

"Well, you guys go and relax," Comrade Stalin didn't have a chance to speak to others at all. After Victor took over the task, he waved his hand and said with a smile, "You can drink more tonight."

After saying this, he laughed aloud, and then turned and entered the building with Molotov.

At this moment, Victor was a little horrified and confused. He watched Comrade Stalin and his party enter the building, and when Comrade Serov turned around, he quickly glanced at the expression on his face.

However, it is a bit regretful that Comrade Serov has a faint smile on his face, and he can't see what he thinks at all.

Perhaps for Comrade Stalin, his decision had some consideration, or there was no hint, but for someone like Victor, it could not be so easy.

At least, Victor didn’t know if Comrade Serov would have an opinion on this decision, or if he would have an opinion on himself, but he still couldn’t open his mouth to ask, let alone make any explanations, because many questions themselves cannot be explained, only The more explained, the darker.

"Let’s go, let’s go to the ball," said Comrade Serov, turning around with a smile, holding Victor’s arm in one hand and putting the other on Eitingo’s shoulder, and said, "just like Comrade Stalin said. , Can drink two more glasses tonight."

"Hehe, I'm afraid Victor won't have a drink with us," Eitingo said with a smile, "There must be a lot of girls who want to meet him tonight."

I don't know if he thinks too much, Victor vaguely thinks what Eitingo said is a bit unpleasant.

With a smile on his face, he turned his head and glanced at the other person, but he happened to see Aitingo blinking at him. The guy went on to say, "Don’t let this opportunity go tonight. The comrades of the Communist Youth League have specially invited here. A lot of beautiful girls."

Victor secretly breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that he might be too suspicious and too much cranky in his mind.
