In the gloomy cell, Tukhachevsky, 44, was rudely pulled in by two young guards.

"Guards! Do you know what you're doing? I am a dignified Marshal of the Soviet Union, and you cannot arrest me without trial! Tukhachevsky, who was still unaware of his crimes, roared angrily: "What is the reason why you dare to arrest a marshal with a glorious body like this?" ”

"Why?" One of the guards in Tukhachevsky said disdainfully: "You lackey of the Germans still have the face to ask why." As for your treasonous deeds, they have long been published in the newspapers. The evidence is conclusive, you dare to ........"

"Shut up! Todd Stey. The captain of the guard at the head of the guard shouted loudly, he didn't want his men to go to the cell the next day because they were talking. In order to prevent the leakage of information, the Security Service specifically emphasized that communication between guards and spies is not allowed.

"Treason? The lackey ........" repeatedly chewed on a few words that the guard's mouth was quick to say. Tukhachevsky suddenly realized that he might have reached a dead end. Anyone who has anything to do with treason is a capital offense in the Soviet Union. At this point, no exception has ever been made!

Instead of shouting his grievances to the guards, Tukhachevsky chose to remain silent. He knew that even if he convinced the guards, there would be no way for him to turn around. Those who can really decide their own life and death can't hear their own words.

Until the guards left, Tukhachevsky had not yet figured out what his charges were. But what is certain is that most of his crimes are characterized as espionage and other serious crimes.

Espionage? Amusing! He is for the country. How many rebellions have been quelled, how many foreign enemies have been defeated, and how many new doctrines and new doctrines have been formulated for the army. Just when he thought that he was about to lead the country's nascent army and open up territory to show his talents, he was inexplicably thrown into prison and thrown into the capital crime.

There was no trial, no distinction, a marshal with great military achievements was arrested overnight and evaporated from the world!

Only 2 days later, the impatient court convicted Tukhachevsky of "endangering national stability", "treason", "organizing an anti-Soviet military center", "espionage", "engaging in sabotage in military construction......... and dozens of other charges, and he was convicted immediately and executed the next day.

During the entire sentencing process, Tukhachevsky did not say a word, and stood quietly in the dock waiting for the result.

It wasn't until the judge finished pronouncing the verdict that the highly decorated old marshal finally spoke slowly:

"The price I paid for the mistakes I made in my life, for my belief in Soviet power and the Party, and for my loyal service, is my head. I will not ask for forgiveness, because this court can only be based on false documents concocted by third-rate detectives, and no one in their right mind will respect such a court.

You think you are judges, but I tell you that it is you, not me, who sin.

Sooner or later, you will be avenged by fate for your vile deeds. One day, when you sit in this defendant's seat, or when you stand by the wall where I will stand tomorrow, you people will remember my ......."

"Take him away, take him away for me!" The judge shouted hoarsely.

In an awkward atmosphere, Tukhachevsky was escorted down the courthouse by two guards. Even though everyone, including the judges, felt weak about the trial, none of them made the slightest discordant sound.

The reason is simple, no one, including the judge, has the right to decide the conclusion of this trial. Everything has been predestined. All of us here today are just a humble executor, a chess piece.

And the chess player, far away from the Klim Palace, sits in that seat.

On the other hand, since it is a game of chess, there is more than one chess player. In the Führer's residence in Berlin, a chess player hiding in the shadows also played a chess piece.

Still in that gloomy cell, a low-ranking official who had entered under the pretext of visiting was alone in front of the old marshal: "Marshal Tukhachevsky, please understand the Führer's painstaking efforts. If you can promise to lead an insurrectionary army against Stalin for the Third Reich in the future, we will do our best to rescue you tonight. ”

"No need!" Tukhachevsky, who was sitting in the corner of the cell, raised his head, looked at the low-ranking official, and said with a wry smile: "I have served this country all my life, and I don't want to go down the wrong path at the last moment." I appreciate the kindness of your head of state, and I forgive you for your fate! ”

"Marshal, you have a long way to go in your life." The Gestapo, who had been sent by Reinhardt to contact Tukhachevsky, was seductive.

Turning his head, Tukhachevsky did not look at the real spy again, turned his back to him and said coldly: "From the day I was tried, my life was over. Although I am no longer alive, history will eventually return my innocence. If I leave with you, even if I can escape to Germany alive, I will only remain on the pillar of shame in history! ”

Tukhachevsky saw very well that even if he left the Gestapo, he might not be able to escape to Germany alive. And he cares more about reputation and innocence than life!

"Marshal, since I have come to see you today, I will also be investigated soon. So, I have to leave overnight tonight. In other words, this is your only chance. "The Gestapo threw the last olive branch to Tukhachevsky.

It's a pity that the other party has stopped talking. Just sit quietly in the corner, facing the wall silently.

Sighing, the Gestapo, who ventured to take Tukhachevsky away, was finally impressed by his persistence and gave up his futile courtship.

"Smack!" In the distance, the sound of the iron door closing. Listening to the sound of footsteps fading away, Tukhachevsky, who remained in the cell, sighed alone. From the very beginning, the German Führer was prepared not to take himself with him, so he sent only a low-level official to test him.

The other party sacrificed only an insignificant chess piece, but the reward was extremely probable. Once successful, with its own reputation, it is definitely possible to raise a huge army of anti-Stalin uprisings. It would be a big joke to say that such a leader is incompetent.

Looking alone at the small window above the cell, Tukhachevsky sighed helplessly again. If Stalin had defined the German Führer by an immature politician, the future Soviet Union would have suffered a great loss. The other party is definitely not as harmless as it seems, but unfortunately, he can't remind this old partner anymore.......

..........

"Did he really say that!?" Reinhardt, who received a reply from the Gestapo, immediately jumped up from his chair excitedly.

"That's right, the subordinates promise to be word for word." The Gestapo, who had just fled back to Germany from the Soviet Union, reported to Reinhardt about the conversation he had with Tukhachevsky last night.

"He said he would rather die by shouting Stalin's name than by shouting long live the Führer." The Gestapo hesitated to say Tukhachevsky's disrespectful words to Reinhardt.

Unexpectedly, Reinhardt, who has always been talkative, did not complain for a long time after hearing these words.

At this moment, Reinhardt was in awe of Tukhachevsky's every word.

This kind of person is proud from the bottom of his bones. They may be unsociable, silent, or inflexible. But they follow the law, morality, and inner guidance, and do what they believe they are supposed to do.

Such a person has accomplished many immortal deeds. This was true of Sickert, who created the 100,000-strong Wehrmacht, and so was Tukhachevsky, who reorganized the new Soviet army!

In the eyes of many people, such people are fools.

But Reinhardt admires such "fools". A country with many "fools" will be far greater than a country with many "smart people"!

These fools are the backbone of a nation!

It's a pity that he's not from his side........
