On December 14, 1944, just as the Soviet-Japanese war was in full swing, a group of men wearing the uniforms of the Ministry of Internal Affairs suddenly broke into an office of the Chita Military District Command. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Comrades of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, do you have anything to do with me?" Air Marshal Hudyakov was sitting in his office chair at this time, looking at a map of China's northeast region, presumably planning an air raid.

Without saying a word, the man in the uniform of a colonel of the Ministry of Internal Affairs showed an arrest warrant personally signed by the Minister of Internal Affairs Beria and the head of the "Smirshu" (counterintelligence special operation (agency)) Abakumov.

"What? What exactly did I do wrong? I absolutely did not betray the Motherland, I absolutely did not betray Stalin! Long live Stalin! No matter how much Hudyakov shouted, he could not change the fate of his arrest.

An air marshal was finished like this.

News of Hudyakov's arrest soon reached Moscow, causing shock in the top echelons of Soviet political and military circles. Except for Stalin and the top of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, no one knew the real reason for the fall of this air marshal, the former deputy commander-in-chief of the Soviet Air Force.

In the army, many high-ranking military officials, including Chief of the General Staff of the Soviet Army, Zhukov, Deputy Minister of Defense Vasilevsky, and Air Marshal Novikov, asked Manturov about relevant matters, hoping that Manturov, a political figure with close ties with the military, would use his political resources to inquire about the ins and outs of the matter.

As a time-traveler from the 21st century, Manturov certainly knows the ins and outs of the matter, and can even accurately predict who will be arrested next. But he didn't reveal much, only said: "Hudyakov may have made serious mistakes in some things, as long as everyone does their duty, don't do stupid things, don't say stupid things." ”

Several marshals left Manturov's office in a daze, not knowing what was happening, but simply, without political wisdom, they believed Manturov's simple words, convinced that Hudyakov had made a serious mistake in something.

Soon after, after Abakumov's personal interrogation, Marshal Hudyakov finally "confessed" to the "facts" of his work as an Axis spy, admitting that he had deliberately received a batch of substandard aircraft, causing unnecessary casualties.

However, Hudyakov's fall was only the beginning of this conspiracy, and more and more letters of accusation were sent to the desks of Andreyev, chairman of the Central Supervisory Commission, Zhdanov, second secretary of the CPSU Central Committee, and Alexei Kuznetsov, secretary of the Secretariat of the CPSU Central Committee.

It is worth mentioning that Manturov, secretary of the Secretariat of the CPSU Central Committee and head of the Organization Department, deputy chairman of the Central Supervision Commission, and Minister of Internal Affairs Beria did not receive any relevant letters of accusation, but Kuznetsov, secretary of the Secretariat of the Central Committee in charge of external liaison affairs, received many such letters.

Originally, Manturov did not know that such a thing happened, so he did not react for the time being, and thought that things would follow the trajectory of historical development.

It was not until Andreyev convened a meeting of the Central Supervisory Commission that Manturov, who was present at the meeting, learned of the existence of these letters.

Almost all the letters were addressed to the Commander-in-Chief of the Soviet Air Force, Field Marshal Novikov, the Minister of the Aviation Industry, Alexei Ivanovich Shahulin, the Military Commissar of the Air Force, Air Force Admiral Smanov, the Deputy Commander of the Air Force, Colonel-General Liepin, and the Director of the Air Force Equipment Procurement Directorate, Lieutenant General Seleznev.

In other words, all those involved in the production and reception of aircraft are involved in the case. As the vice chairman of the National Defense Committee for the development of all military industries, Manturov may also be involved in this case, but because he has contributed too much, his fame is too great, and there is no evidence to prove that he is related to this matter, no one dares to report him for the time being.

However, when those accused are arrested, it is likely that they will be forced to "confess" Manturov during interrogation. And historically, Malenkov, secretary of the Central Committee of the CPSU, was also "confessed" by Novikov in this case, and was subsequently relegated to Uzbekistan to preside over the construction of a dam.

If Beria hadn't moved around and interceded for Malenkov in front of Stalin, I'm afraid Malenkov's political career would have ended here.

And this time, Malenkov is also very likely to be involved in this case, but the extent of his involvement in this case, as well as his "end", are still unpredictable.

If the target of this case is really Malenkov, then whether he is responsible or not, he will be implicated to a certain extent and will be punished to a certain extent.

But if the target of the case was not Malenkov, but Manturov, the result would have been different. It is also possible that Manturov will be relegated to a remote area to build a dam, as Malenkov did in history, and if there is no one here in the center to help him blow the wind, I am afraid that his political career will end here.

To avoid such a situation, Manturov will have to do some preventive work, but he does not yet have a clear idea of what to do, because he has not yet figured out who the "culprit" is, and he does not know who is deciding the fate of these people.

If the "culprit" in this case is Stalin's son Vasily, as most historical sources say, then the whole matter will not be difficult to solve, and it is only necessary to have a good relationship with Stalin's son.

As for how to improve the relationship with Vasily, all the key is to a football player in the Gulag, just need to support Vasily to release the football player, and then arrange him to be a coach in the CSKA team in Moscow, so that CSKA and the Soviet Ministry of Defense behind him can support him, the only "side effect" is to damage the relationship between Manturov and Beria, making him the next target targeted by Beria.

However, Vasily Stalin was not the mastermind of this "conspiracy". He is indeed related to this "conspiracy", and the whole "conspiracy" is also caused by him, but behind him, there seems to be a huge force hidden.

This force may have been Stalin himself, and his distrust of the military led him to try to eliminate Novikov and Hudyakov World War II heroes, and take this opportunity to uproot Zhukov and Manturov, who were more contributing and more prominent in the army, so as to prevent these military figures from threatening his dominance.

But if the "culprit" is Stalin himself, then why did Malenkov suffer in this case in history? He was obviously a celebrity around Stalin, and even one of his most trusted people, so why was he implicated?

One possible explanation is that the mastermind behind the case was not Stalin, but Malenkov's political enemies, the Leningradists.
