Struggle in Soviet Russia

The fourth floor of the office building, also known as the top floor, is different from the floors below it. This floor is completely opened up, just like an indoor parking lot.

Of course, this is obviously not a parking lot, but a real communication equipment research center, gathered here, there are many experts and scholars from the alliance radio field, of course, there are also skilled workers. These people's work here has only one purpose, and that is to develop new types of communication equipment, radio interference equipment, monitoring equipment, and so on.

Everyone here is very focused and busy, even if Victor appeared here, he didn't attract anyone's attention.

Obviously, Victor didn't intend to influence other people's work. He walked around, and finally walked to a workbench on the east side, and stopped next to an old man with gray hair and a rickety figure.

This old man is Brujevic, an academician of the Soviet Academy of Sciences and an expert in the field of radio communications.

In fact, it is too much to say that he is an old man, because this person is only 54 years old this year. The reason why his body shape is so rickety is not because of his age, but because he has ankylosing myelitis.

At this time, Brujevic was sitting in front of his workbench, fiddling with a box the same size as a cigarette case. This small box had a bright silver metal pillar half a foot long. The whole thing looked , Like a deformed tadpole.

Brujevic was also very focused, even though Victor was standing next to him, he didn't even notice it.

Viktor could recognize the things in Brujevic's hands. He had read the report submitted by the academician before. In that report, he introduced in detail the structural principles and particularities of this equipment.

Yes, this is a bug, Brujevic named it "Er1" monitor. This kind of monitor is very simple in structure. It is divided into four parts: the resonant film, the resonant cavity, the spectrum column, and the metal antenna. The metal column extending from the bottom of the box is the metal antenna.

The special point of this monitor is that its operation does not require the support of a power source. In other words, it is not driven by electricity. In addition, the monitor itself does not emit any electric waves.

As far as the current anti-espionage methods are concerned, if you want to detect a bug, you need to monitor it through current or through radio waves. This thing does not use electricity or emits radio waves. It is embedded in the wall. , It is no different from a brick or a stone.

In order for this thing to have the effect of eavesdropping, it needs to emit high-frequency electromagnetic waves of a specific frequency from the outside. This electromagnetic wave will cause the tremor of the metal antenna, and at the same time, the sound of the eavesdropped will cause the tremor of the resonant film. When the two kinds of tremors act at the same time, resonance will be triggered. Eventually, high-frequency electromagnetic waves will be reflected back through the metal antenna after resonance, and then restored by a special mediator to play out the eavesdropping sound.

To put it bluntly, this thing is like a mirror. It does not have the effect of eavesdropping. Instead, it uses wave-frequency reflection to achieve the effect of eavesdropping. Because of this, once this kind of eavesdropping device is installed, there is no way to pass it. Find out by monitoring means.

Of course, the principle of this technology is nothing at all in the era when Victor lived in his previous life. It is very common. In fact, bank cards and public transportation cards use this principle, but the technology is more advanced.

But having said that, in this year and month, this thing is definitely the first in the world. Its appearance also proves that the National Security People’s Committee of the Alliance has come to the forefront of the world in the field of radio applications related to intelligence theft.

For Victor, the emergence of this kind of bug is his great achievement. As long as this kind of bug can make a difference in the future, it will draw a mark on his account of merit.

Standing quietly next to the workbench, Victor patiently waited for Brujevic to get out of work. I don’t know how long it took. The focused Brujevic finally put the monitor in his hands on the workbench. , Then, he stretched out a hand and fumbled around on the table beside him, as if looking for something.

Victor took a look and saw that there was a pack of "representatives" not far from his hand. This was a kind of cigarettes made locally in Moscow. It was very common on the market, and of course, it was relatively low-end. It seemed to be smoking hay.

He stretched out his hand and took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, and sent it directly to Brujevic's groping around, and then sent his lighter in front of him.

Seeing the lighter appearing abruptly in front of him, Brujevic didn't realize anything for the first time. He directly smoked a cigarette from the cigarette case, then lit the cigarette with the flame from the lighter and took a puff. After that, it seemed that the smell was not right, and then he raised his head in surprise.

"Ah?! Comrade General Victor Victorovich," Brujevic was startled when he saw Victor standing in front of him. He put his hands on the tabletop and tried to get up from the chair, his mouth still flustered. , "I'm very sorry, I didn't realize it was..."

The Lysenko incident hit the Soviet scientific community very seriously a few years ago. Although its subsequent impact has been weakened in the last two years, it has not completely faded. A large number of scientific workers affected by the incident have now returned to work. The identity of the prisoner is still preserved.

Brujevic should be regarded as an expert in the field of communications and electronics, but he has not escaped the disaster of the year. The theory of radio interference and confrontation he put forward was actually put forward in prison, and it is also because of this theory. He was able to get out of prison and got his job today.

Tribulation can really change a person, especially when this person can’t be confronted in the face of suffering. Today’s Brujevic has long lost the spirit of attacking certain people. When facing Victor, he It even seemed a little humble.

With a hand on Brujevic's shoulder, preventing him from getting up from the chair, Victor smiled and said, "How about it, can you put it into practical use?"

After asking this question, he shrugged his chin toward the monitor on the workbench.

"It's no problem to put it into application," Brujevic said cautiously. "However, I'm trying to optimize it. Maybe, I think, it should be smaller and more concealed."

Victor nodded, and then said: "Optimization can be done slowly. Now we must come up with a practical finished product. We don't have much time to delay."

At this point, he paused and turned to look at Varenka who was following him.

Varenka took a step forward, opened the briefcase in his hand, took a document and handed it over.

Victor took the document and passed it to Brujevic, saying: "I have submitted a report to the People’s Committee for National Defense for you and Shumsky, Koternikov, Kasparov and others. People, applied for a medal."

The people mentioned by Victor are all experts in the field of radio or electronics. In the past two years, they have made outstanding contributions to the radio and electronic technology of the National Security People’s Committee. Of course, in the history of Victor's previous life, these people are the top people, just like Koternikov, the former Soviet Union's Koternikov Institute of Radio Engineering and Electronics was named after him.

When he took the file, Brujevic looked a little excited. He read the file again, and the whole person seemed to calm down again. Then, he put the file on the workbench and said cautiously: "But if you can't do it At the best, once the finished product is..."

Before he finished speaking, Victor interrupted him. Even if he only said half of his words, Victor could guess what he wanted to say.

"Well, let's not discuss these issues," Victor said to himself, interrupting him. "How did the report you prepare before?"

Brujevic did not dare to express his own opinions, so he licked his lips and said: "There are still some relevant data to be added, but it should be completed by tomorrow at the latest."

Prior to this, Victor asked Brujevic and his department to draft a report. The content of this report was to summarize a general guideline for information security work, such as: the custody, access, and inspection of encrypted files. What kind of principles should be followed for transmission; what disciplines should be followed in the formulation and preservation of passwords, codes, and keys; regulations and rules that must be followed by confidential personnel.

It’s actually not appropriate to leave it to Brujevic to do something like this. After all, this thing is not particularly professional, let alone technical, but because Victor needs to provide detailed information while formulating rules. The data serves as the support of the argument, therefore, the support of Brujevic and his department is inseparable.

To put it bluntly, Victor hopes to make this thing similar to the doctor's surgical guide, so that it has a certain degree of universality and practicality in the field of confidential work. Therefore, it must be more professional.

In the past two days, Victor is prepared to be more diligent. First, he submitted a list of awards to the People’s Committee of National Defense, proposing to commend a group of people who have made outstanding contributions in the field of intelligence work. Later, he plans to submit this report to Comrade Stalin, and show the "Er1" monitor by the way.

He wanted to prove to Comrade Stalin that he was professional in intelligence work, and he was also professional in intelligence security work. He can not only do a good job in external intelligence work, but also do a good job in internal security work. In this regard, Comrade Shevereyev can only be left behind.
