Battle of the Third Reich Chapter 76: Night talk
? The box clock produced in the 18th century "tick, tick", the light from the white flag bulb shines through the carved leather lampshade of the floor lamp, and shines on the thick dark green velvet curtains. The round table is covered with white embroidered tablecloths, the food is placed on delicate silver plates, and the air is filled with the fragrance of tallow and cheese.
"This is a conspiracy, Comrade Vladimir Kirardeyevich, this is a conspiracy." Merkulov put the glass heavily on the table.
After only half a day, the first deputy commissar completely changed his appearance. His pale face was set against his bloodshot eyes, and his brown hair was meticulously combed all the time. Time is as messy as a chicken coop.
His Excellency, the always personable Director of the National Security Agency, is wearing only a white cotton shirt with a straight collar at the moment, and the furry uniform of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, who has never taken off in front of others, was thrown on the sofa and became a ball , The trouser legs of the sky blue breeches were drooping down, and the leather riding boots that tightly wrapped the calves also lost the aggressive light before.
"This is what you want to tell me? Dear Vsevorod Nikolaevich." Gekanozov picked up the crystal bottle and poured a glass of vodka for his colleagues.
"No, no, no, Vladimir Kirardeyevich, you didn't understand what I meant. All this happened today is a conspiracy by the Germans." After that, Merkulo The husband grasped the glass, raised his head and drank it, as if it was just a glass of boiled water.
"You can’t explain to Moscow like this, Vsevorod Nikolaevich, you should know the character of Lavrenti Pavlovich (Beria) better than I do. Berlin Intelligence The station was completely destroyed. The Germans spent only five hours before and after. Only 14 of the 47 intelligence agents managed to escape.
If according to you, this is really a conspiracy by the Germans, then what exactly are they trying to achieve by doing this? Why do they risk angering the great Union of Soviet Socialist Republics and arrest Soviet diplomats, and what benefits can they gain from it? If you can’t find a convincing answer, I advise you to give up the idea of explaining to Moscow, even if Lavrendi Pavlovich is willing to forgive you, but you think the one in the Winter Palace will let you go ? "Jekanozov shrugged and said.
"Joseph Vissarionovich (Stalin) no!" Dou Da's sweat dripped down Merkulov's cheek.
"I think you should think about it now, how to explain to Joseph Vissarionovich why all this happened after you arrived in Berlin, Vsevorod Nikolai Jevich." Gekanozov picked up a biscuit from the plate, then scooped a spoonful of black caviar in a silver bowl and placed it on top of the biscuit.
"Do you mean that the Germans are targeting me?" Merkulov actually had the same idea in his heart, but in order to show his innocence, the security chief still pretended to be surprised. Closed eyes.
"No, no, Vsevorod Nikolaevich, a foreigner, this is not just a conspiracy against you alone, but also a conspiracy against me and even the entire delegation. Germany People are really cunning, but in my opinion, the methods they use are too clumsy. As long as a person with a little logical ability can see through their strategy at a glance." Gekanozov said with a smug face, the ambassador The husband didn't care that the words just now had knocked down a group of people, including the head of the National Security Bureau of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
"Quickly tell me, what do you see?" Merkulov didn't seem to hear Dekanozov's irony, or he did it but pretended to be unaware.
"The Germans deliberately used this method to put pressure on us, especially you, dear Vseverod Nikolaevich. Their purpose is simple, they want to destroy the current two For the cooperative relationship between countries, I feel that the Germans are ready to fall back on their bills, but they are unwilling to take the responsibility of tearing up the agreement.
They deliberately wanted to provoke us, and then through our report, provoked Joseph Vissarionovich. You should be aware of the character of Joseph Vissarionovich. He is a very easily irritated person. Once he expresses dissatisfaction with Germany, the Germans have a reason to terminate the cooperation between the two countries, and all the responsibility lies with the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. "After finishing talking, Jekanozov looked like a wise man who saw through everything, and leisurely stuffed the caviar into his mouth.
"These cunning German bastards, if I find a chance, I must get back a hundred times in revenge. Vogelind Kirsten, this sinister and vicious German woman, I can bet that this conspiracy must have come from Her hand." Melkulov said in a loud voice with a face of sudden realization.
"In fact, she can take a more concealed approach. The direct and rude way like this looks very exciting, but it also unintentionally reveals a lot of the secrets they have." Jacanozzo The husband chewed on the biscuits and picked up the wine glass on the table.
"You mean that the intelligence station was destroyed so quickly" Merkulov thoughtfully.
"It was destroyed so thoroughly." Jekanozov drank the vodka in the glass.
"If it wasn't for someone among the arrested who had betrayed the country, then it only means that we must have a German spy inside us." Merkulov patted the table hard.
As the political workers responsible for the Great Purge, Merkulov and Dekanozov have a lot of common language, and they have always been very sensitive to the smell of rape.
"I think they must have started planning very early, we arrived in Berlin less than a week, this time is not enough for them to penetrate the delegation." It can be seen that the Director of the National Security Bureau is not a wine bag, he is just being The sudden blow was bewildered.
"We need to conduct a strict screening of the embassy and representative office personnel again, sniff out and eradicate hidden traitors." Jekanozov said, hammering the table.
"The persons who have access to the list of personnel of the intelligence station are limited to the personnel of the Ministry of Internal Affairs within the embassy."
"No, my dear Vsevorod Nikolaevich, after this happened, any Soviet citizen in Berlin is suspected, including you and me. You must think this way, We have to show our results and prove our ability to Joseph Vissarionovich." Gekanozov grabbed a piece of cured pork and shook it in front of Merkulov's nose.
"In this case, I need to transfer another group of people from China. Now the people here are not reliable."
"You are right to think so, but considering the time, if you want to do this, you have to hurry up. I am not worried about Moscow, but the Germans will have follow-up measures."
"I immediately went to write a report to Lavrenti Pavlovich, tell him exactly what happened here, and ask for domestic support." The Major General of the Ministry of Internal Affairs stood up.
"Don't forget to ask him to order the message to be blocked, so that it can delay some time for us." Jekanozov also stood up.
"You are right. Before we have enough results, we must strictly block the news, and we must not let the country know what happened in Berlin."
"You can rest assured that the embassy's radio is under my control." Gekanozov threw the pork back onto the plate, took a napkin and wiped his hands.
"If it was done by an insider, dear Vladimir Kiraljiyevich, the Germans may have obtained a lot of classified information, including the passwords we are using." Merkulo The husband frowned.
"This is very possible. Moscow must be notified immediately." Dekanozov nodded and said.
"Then the Germans will invite us to visit their weapons test site tomorrow, do you want to continue?" Merkulov scratched his scalp.
"The determined plan will not change. You have to ask Vyacheslav Mikhailovich (Molotov) this question."
"Do you think he already knows about this?" Merkulov asked.
"Do you think you can hide from him? Even if we don't report it, the Germans will take the initiative to negotiate with him." Jekanozov crumpled the napkin into a ball and threw it on the side of the chair. .
"Vladimir Kiraljiyevich, I want to ask a question." Merkulov looked left and right, and whispered to Dekanozov.
"Please speak, Vseverod Nikolaevich."
"Do you think this matter will have something to do with the "White Club"." Merkulov said.
"I don’t know how to answer your question. "White Club" is now a taboo topic, but if you can confirm that this matter is indeed related to "White Club", I can make it clear, not only right now The critical situation of the United States can be solved, and it can even be praised by Joseph Vissarionovich~IndoMTL.com~ But the question is, how can you get evidence that can be approved by Joseph Vissarionovich? I know he is not someone who can fool around casually." Jekanozov shook his head and replied.
" But if you can prove that this matter is related to the "White Club", then it is equivalent to proving that Germany is indeed hooked up with the "White Club". This is a very serious matter and you should understand it. At stake. Vsevorod Nikolaevich, don’t you have any clues.” At this point, Baku’s executioner’s eyes sparkled.
"Not yet, I just have a feeling now, Vladimir Kiraljiyevich, if my judgment is correct, I will get credible evidence." Melku Love seemed to have regained a little confidence, he clenched his fist and said loudly.
