Struggle in Soviet Russia

Beria did not deceive people. He was indeed going to the Moscow City Committee. According to him, he was going to meet with Serbakov to deal with some personal matters.

Victor didn't ask him what it was personally. He just asked him to find a place to park. Varenka always drove behind. As long as the matter was finished, he could return to his car at any time.

"I'm curious, Victor, how are you going to let Eitingo and Feijing leave the National Security People's Committee?" As Victor got out of the car, Beria, who hadn't asked all the way, couldn't help it. He opened his mouth and asked, "As far as I know, whether it is Aitingo or Feijing, they are not so easy to deal with, let alone the relationship between you and them."

Swinging his right hand lightly and making a self-explanatory gesture, he finally said: "You know what I mean, so, what are you going to do?"

Half of Victor's body has gotten out of the car. He is standing outside the car with one leg and the other is still in the car. He is holding the roof with his left hand and the door with his right hand. He looks at the road ahead and thinks for a moment. Then he leaned down and smiled at Beria sitting in the car: "Are they easy to deal with has nothing to do with me? I didn't want to deal with them. All I want to do is change their positions."

Anticipating a meal, he turned his head and glanced at the black Volga that followed. Victor chuckled, and finally said: "Perhaps, they have long wanted to leave the National Security People’s Committee, but they have never found a chance. Now, I gave them this opportunity."

"Oh?" Beria didn't understand what he meant, and her brows curled up behind the small round glasses. He still wanted to ask something, but Victor had already closed the car door, and in desperation, he had to smile and shook his head.

Although Victor avoided answering his questions, Beria was still very happy at this time, because if Victor could keep his promise, then he could pass Iparitov and reach out to the People’s Committee for National Security again. , This is very important to him.

On another point, since Victor made it clear that he would expel Aitingo and Feijing from the People’s Committee of National Security, it also means that this guy is going to end himself and fight Serov.

Of course, it may not be Victor’s intention to be an enemy of Serov, but in matters such as political stance, most of the time it does not matter what one’s intentions are. What did he do.

For such a long time, although Victor has joined the small group of Beria and Malinkov in name, everyone can feel that he has been in a state of dissociation, and is in a state of dissociation with this small group. Not very close.

To be honest, if it wasn't because Malinkov was really optimistic about him, Beria might have had other ideas. Now, Victor has at least shown enough sincerity, and this is what Beria values ​​most.

Compared with Beria’s complicated ideas, Victor did not think so much. For him now, he has to follow the established ideas. In this process, even if he does not get from Malinkov and Beria. He won’t shrink from the support of his.

A low temperature in mid-March is like the glimmer of a long winter. It was the last cold day of this winter.

Entering mid-April, the colors of winter began to fade quickly on the Soviet land west of the Ural Mountains. First, the ice on the Moskva River melted away. Then, the only bit of residual snow and ice in the shadows under the trees behind the building disappeared. The sound disappeared. Of course, the most intuitive feeling is that the weather is getting warmer day by day. When the buzzing winter noise of the Podolsk heating plant finally disappears, spring has arrived in such a trance.

It was early in the morning, the spring was beautiful, and the great sun jumped out of the skyline early in the morning, and could not wait to wake up the whole city.

At the end of the boulevard, in the office of the People's Committee of National Security, Victor stood in front of the window, looking out the window with blurred eyes.

At this time, the morning sun projected in from the window, just shining on his body, reflecting his navy blue uniform, reflecting a light blue color-of course, this is not the point, the point is that he is squatting on the ground at this time. Head buried with the woman between his crotch.

The sunlight projected from outside the window also shone on a woman's white face. Who else could it be if it wasn't Nino?

At this moment, Victor had just vented that little excess energy, and some of his blurred eyes were gradually becoming clear. He released the hand that was behind Nino's head, turned sideways, and dragged the chair half a step behind him.

Nino cleaned him intimately and put on his pants. Then she turned and walked to the rest room. After a while, she walked back again and put a cup of hot coffee on the desk in front of Victor, smiling. Said: "What are you going to have for breakfast? I'll let someone prepare it."

"Whatever, you're not very hungry," Victor said casually, reaching for the cup of coffee.

Last night he stayed on duty in the committee building and did not go back to his residence. Although he was the chairman of the committee department, he could not escape from duty. Moreover, according to the regulations of the committee department, several chairmen and vice-chairmen of the presidium in Moscow , I have to take turns on duty every week, and no one can escape.

At this moment, the office door was knocked suddenly, and then, before Victor could speak, the door was pushed open from the outside, and Sophia in a military uniform walked in quickly.

"Expedited information sent from the Intelligence Analysis Center," Sophia walked quickly to Victor's desk, and Sophia put a document in his arms in front of Victor and said, "Something happened in Ukraine."

Victor glanced at her, put the coffee cup in his hand on the table, and then took the document over and opened it carefully.

As Sophia said, something happened in Ukraine, and it's an ally of the Soviet Union, the Americans.

At the beginning of the year, with the rapid advancement of the Soviet army on the battlefield in Ukraine, especially after the end of the Battle of Ukraine on the Right Bank, the Americans have been trying to set up three to four air bases dedicated to long-range bombers in the Union territory to help Ukraine As a starting point, bombing Germany and its servants.

Although the Soviet Union and the United States are allies, Comrade Stalin still disagrees with the establishment of an air base in the Union territory by the United States. Within a month, he rejected the request of the US ambassador to the Soviet Union three times because of Comrade Stalin. It seems that opening the territory of the Soviet Union to other countries for the establishment of air bases is an infringement of the sovereignty of the alliance.

From mid-January to March, this matter was discussed for nearly two and a half months. In the end, Comrade Stalin reluctantly accepted the request after Roosevelt wrote a letter himself. But even so, the United States There was only one air base that people eventually set up, and it was placed in Poltava.

Subsequently, the Americans spent a lot of energy to transfer military aircraft, including dozens of B-17 flying fortresses, from the Pacific Ocean and deploy them at the long-range air base in Poltava.

Since then, the Americans began to implement the "shuttle bombing" plan. In the past period of time, military planes deployed in Poltava took off 18 times and bombed targets in the German mainland. It is said that they have achieved some good results.

However, according to the information at hand, just this morning, the US military's long-range air base in Poltava was attacked and suffered heavy losses.

The attack came from the sky. According to the intelligence description, the US troops in Poltava had routinely set out missions the night before. Their usual practice was to take off at night and then return to the base before dawn. And this morning, less than an hour after the mission's US bombers returned to the base, a German air force launched a surprise attack on this air base.

In the past so long, the US military has performed nearly 20 missions, but has never suffered any losses. Therefore, the airport staff are a bit paralyzed. Faced with the German bombing, they did not respond in time. As a result, nearly fifty fighters were destroyed in the entire airport, 30 people were killed in the ground operations of the Soviet army, and two American pilots were killed.

After reading the file again, Victor shook his head, then set it aside, and said, "This is the loss suffered by the Americans. What does it have to do with us?"

After a pause, he said again: "Let's do this, you can sort out this report, later..."

At this point, he stopped again.

This time, Victor seemed to have thought of something. He frowned, picked up the document again, read it from beginning to end, then looked up at Sophia and asked: "The previous copy about Taras ? Where is Bulba's intelligence?"

"Talas Bulba" is certainly not a real person's name. The name comes from a novel by Gogol. The protagonist in the novel is called this name. He is a Ukrainian national hero who opposes Polish oppression.

The "Taras Bulba" mentioned by Victor here is the pseudonym of a Ukrainian gangster. This man is a diehard Bandera. A Ukrainian nationalist guerrilla team led by him is active in Rivne. In the vast jungle around Vinnytsia—this is where Victor stayed at the beginning of his rebirth, and Warren Forest was there.

This "Talas Bulba" is not the leader of a small guerrilla group. There are 14 guerrilla detachments under his hands, with a total number of about 15,000, which should not be underestimated.

Victor remembered this person because he had received a piece of information before, and that piece of information revealed that Khrushchev was in contact with "Talas Bulba" through Bergma.
