Once the location was set, the relevant units began to be convened to implement it, and the corn would be transported through the Nile River to the arid regions of the north for storage for a period of two months. Time is neither tight nor sparing, it all depends on how the commander of the Aswan military base, Major General Leonid, deals with it, and this is also the time to test the ability of Igor's successor, and after thinking for a while, Serov asked Lukani to send a telegram to the other party, explaining the importance of this matter.

There was the first deputy head of the Main Directorate of Military Administration, Roman, and the whole process of operation was in an orderly manner and did not let Serov worry too much. For him, the new challenge was the huge 2nd Directorate, first of all, to Lubyanka Square 11, in fact, the KGB agents preferred the new name of the square, Dzerzhinsky Square, where the steely Felix stood at the door of the KGB headquarters, inspiring the successors of the Cheka fighters to contribute to national security.

"First of all, the Second General Bureau should be reorganized, many departments of the Second General Bureau have been transferred to the Fifth General Directorate of Alexey, and some departments are no longer necessary, I mean first of all, the domestic anti-espionage work of the Second General Bureau will be redivided, and counter-espionage work will be carried out in more detail!" Serov took a glass of water from the new water dispenser and asked with a smile, "How is it, old secretary, the design of the General Administration of Technology Management is not bad, right......?"

"Not bad!" Selepin, who was holding a pen, didn't know whether he was saying that the water cooler was good, or that the reorganization plan of the Second Main Directorate was good, among the cadres he knew, Serov had worked in the KGB for the longest time, and there was originally a Tikunov, but the Ministry of Internal Affairs was abolished, and Tikunov also left the security department, so the work of making the KGB the trump card in his hands was done by Serov, in fact, the reason why Sherepin always wanted to dismiss the KGB personnel. There is also a part of the intention to drive out those old spies and let the familiar Komsomol cadres take control of the KGB.

Sherepin was not completely unaware of the impact this had on the combat effectiveness of the KGB, but rather than commanding this organization, it would be better to weaken part of the combat effectiveness and control this powerful department in his own hands.

Quickly signed the documents in his hand, and Xie Lepin could have a good chat with his ace director. After brewing a cup of coffee, Sherepin said while stirring the coffee, "A comrade is also the head of two Main Directors, and there have only been two times in the history of the KGB, one dating back to the Cheka period and the other time to the NKVD, which has not happened since the formation of the KGB, on the one hand, this is a recognition of your ability, and on the other hand, this is also the trust of the party and the state in you......

"If it weren't for Uncle Bagla Miyan in the Ministry of Defense, it would have been possible to die young. And the old marshals knew that I was just following the orders of the first secretary, and the bones of others were dismantled three times. Serov didn't have any sense of appreciation, and directly pointed out that the boss was the intention of letting him dismantle the Second General Bureau and make the Second General Bureau a force in the hands of Shelepin, "As long as you support me, old secretary, I will definitely make the Second General Bureau a force of trust without losing combat effectiveness!" I have an invitation though. ”

"It's strange that you didn't ask for it, say. I'm listening! Sherepin blew two breaths to make sure it was cold, and drank the unsweetened coffee into his stomach. Serov was also surprised by this alternative style. Sherepin never added sugar to his coffee, and according to him, eating too much sugar is not good for his throat. The question is, does it work? You can reduce the amount of cigarettes you have two packs a day by one rather than how much sugar you put in them.

Serov, who was holding a cigarette butt, stood on the moral high ground and scolded Shelepin, and the cigarette butt on his mouth opened and closed with his mouth, "I will conduct an inspection of the original cadres of the Second General Bureau, and do not let the cadres of the Communist Youth League enter the post of the Second General Bureau before the inspection is completed." Don't wait for me to finish the reorganization, and the cadres of the Communist Youth League will work with the old cadres first. ”

In the entire KGB, only Serov dared to say this, and others did not dare to say that the Komsomol cadres were bad in front of Sherepin, especially Sherepin's strong and excessive temper, and the general public opposed such a KGB chairman. It's like looking for death. Only Serov, who is himself a cadre of the Komsomol cadres, can confidently put forward his opinions, because he entered the Ministry of Internal Affairs very early, and these cadres of the KGB have a good impression of Serov, mainly because Serov does things in the style of a Cheka warrior and does things beautifully, no matter what department it is, people with merit will be convinced, otherwise no one can afford to look down on him.

"No problem, it's great to be able to maintain combat effectiveness and loyalty at the same time. However, it is better for some cadres with a bad reputation to be transferred! Sherepin said with no peace of mind, from this point Serov is not at all different from other Komsomol cadres, he was too good to those cadres of the Beria period, and Sherepin also knew this, but it was not easy to say.

Of course, the real Serov's experience in the Komsomol is less than a year, and the KGB group is the job where he really invests his feelings, in fact, Serov loves this collective more than Tikunov, and naturally he will not point fingers at the old cadres of the ordinary Komsomol airborne cadres, and it is not necessary to say how good he is to those old agents, the key is that there are other Komsomol cadres as a comparison, and it seems that Serov is not good to the old secret service leader.

The first is to relocate the headquarters of the Second Directorate to the side of the First Directorate, the headquarters of the KGB are scattered and may be due to the fact that there are too many KGB personnel to work together. Serov is not ready to move the entire Second General Directorate over, but only to move a headquarters, and the other subordinate departments and bureaus are still in the embassy area, and it is good to keep an eye on those embassies nearby.

Accompanied by Lieutenant General Serdyuko, first deputy director of the Second Directorate, Serov came to the headquarters of the General Directorate of Internal Espionage, and Lieutenant General Serdyuko, who is now 52 years old, has been working for 29 years, and has gone through the Yagoda, Yezhov, and Beria eras, and has experienced the influence of various times of the KGB.

When he arrived at the headquarters of the Second Directorate, Serov expressed his respect for the former director as usual, affirmed the achievements of his predecessor, and said that he must make some achievements when he came to the Second Directorate, and then said his thoughts, "The current KGB has reached a new historical stage, and our work should keep pace with the times and complete our work with more scientific management methods. ”

In a straightforward way, Serov made it clear to the heads of departments of the Second Directorate that his first step was to reorganize the organization of the Second Directorate.

"Deputy Chairman Serov is also the director of our General Bureau, which shows that Chairman Shelepin trusts him, and everyone is no stranger to Comrade Serov, and our KGB is the place where we are most interested in achievements, and I believe that Comrade Serov's achievements are not unknown to everyone." Lieutenant General Serdyuko came out and said, "Our General Directorate naturally supports the work of the new director, and I believe that under the leadership of Director Serov, we are no worse than the General Directorate of Foreign Intelligence!" ”

This kind of welcome speech made Serov grin secretly, the General Administration of Domestic Espionage still has such a big grudge against the first and second sequences.

"I will try my best to bring the work of the General Administration of Domestic Espionage to a higher level!" Serov found that the department chiefs in this room did not look like cadres of other General Departments, such as the Third General Directorate, which sometimes called itself the General Directorate of Military Administration, and sometimes called itself the Third General Directorate. It seems that the cadres here never claim to be the Second General Bureau, but all call themselves the General Administration of Domestic Espionage, so you can imagine how much they care about the sequence of the first and second.

Without further ado, Serov said that he had already prepared a reorganization plan to plan the work of the General Directorate of Internal Espionage, and the division of the General Directorate of Domestic Espionage and the General Directorate of Foreign Intelligence was the same, and Serov had no objection to all six departments corresponding to the countries of the world, the first to deal with the whole of North and South America, the second to deal with the Commonwealth Empire, the third to deal with the Germanic countries, the fourth to deal with Latin Europe, including France and Italy, the fifth to deal with the developed countries outside Europe, and the sixth to deal with the countries of the Third World.

Serov planned the administrative scale of these six departments, with one minister, two deputy ministers, 50 staff officers in each department, and 300 special agents, including special service and reserve personnel. The planning of the seventh department is particularly important, the travel agencies of the entire Soviet Union must all cooperate with the work of the General Directorate of Internal Espionage, and the personnel of the Seventh Department must at least know a foreign language to deal with tourists from different countries, and the departments in the future will not move for the time being, Serov focused on expanding the scale of the Twelfth Department of the General Directorate of Internal Espionage, this department is the anti-corruption bureau within the KGB, and the departments of the General Directorate of Internal Espionage can investigate any enterprise in the entire Soviet Union at any time, At the same time, three new ministries were established to replace several departments assigned to the General Directorate of the Secret Police, plus an additional technical supply department, and the General Directorate of Internal Espionage Prevention was reorganized into 17 departments, corresponding to various domestic problems.

After Serov's reshuffle, the departments of the General Directorate of Domestic Espionage Prevention have not been reduced a little, and there are five more than the original. The division of labor was more detailed, and all the cadres of the original Second Main Directorate, including Serdyuko, were very satisfied, and there were only 16 divisions and bureaus of the General Directorate of Foreign Intelligence, and there were 17 in their Main Directorate.

"At present, our job is to immediately summarize the data of all walks of life across the country as an experiment after this reform!" Serov slapped one hand on the table and shouted, "The KGB is a place where you value results, and those who are capable are mediocre and get out, understand?" (To be continued.) )
