Chapter 1002: Fake Reactionaries
Leningrad City W Secretary Alexey Aleksandrovich. Kuznetsov had a handwritten letter from Peter's Palace on his desk in the Petrov Fortress - he did not know how it appeared there, and he did not want to know. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 He has already read the contents of the info letter, and he is still sincerely recruiting, and the position of duke and minister of the Russian Empire is at his fingertips. If he doesn't want to "do two things", he can also go to Rome (now the Roman Empire has not declared war on the Soviet Union) and go into exile, and all the costs will be paid by Olga.
It is indeed a very good condition, and Kuznetsov is also convinced that the conditions offered by Olga are not fake. Although an enemy, Kuznetsov still considered Olga more credible than Stalin. If he had been a medieval lord rather than a GCIST warrior, he would have chosen allegiance to Olga over the moody Stalin.
However, Kuznetsov was a loyal GC fighter, and although historically, like Vlasov and Abakumov, he died at the hands of the Soviet dictatorship, but the real beliefs of the three men were different after all.
Vlasov graduated from the seminary, became an Orthodox priesthood, and served God and the Tsar was his original ideal, but later he was only involved in the revolution and was a GC hypocrite.
And when Abakumov joined the Bolshevik Party, he was already a red country. Joining the team, joining the regiment, and joining the party are the three major events in life, and they are also the channels for the Soviet people to climb up.
And Kuznetsov really believes that GCISM can be realized, even at this point, he still firmly believes that the red flag will be planted all over the world, and GCISM will be realized!
However, he also knew that he would not see the day when GCISM would triumph, and that he would soon become a martyr for the cause of GCISM.
Thinking of this, he picked up the letter from the Russian empress, and was about to take it to Abakumov's office to report, when a rush of footsteps suddenly came from outside the door, and then the door of the office was suddenly pushed open.
Kuznetsov saw Abakumov burst in with a couple of heavily armed "blue hats".
"Kuznetsov, you are arrested!" Abakumov said loudly.
"...... Catch? Kuznetsov was stunned for a moment, "Why?" ”
He reacted like all the fake reactionaries! At least in Leningrad, the real reactionaries never ask why, they shoot with guns drawn!
Just as he was stunned, a "blue hat" suddenly snatched the letter from the Russian Empress in Kuznetsov's hand, which was about to be handed over, and then gave it to Abakumov after a glance.
"Kuznetsov," Abakumov pretended to read the empress's letter, and then said sternly, "the evidence of your betrayal of the party and the people is conclusive, what else do you have to say?" ”
Is this conclusive?
Kuznetsov stared blankly at the righteous and awe-inspiring Abakumov, and for a moment he really didn't know how to defend himself - in fact, it was useless to defend himself, and he was arrested with a letter from the Russian Empress in his hand!
If this can be made clear, then Kamenev, Zinoviev, Bukharin, Rykov, Tukhachevsky, etc., didn't they die too unjustly?
"Arrest him!" Seeing that Kuznetsov was frightened and stupid - this is also a sign of Leningrad's fake *** - Abakumov immediately ordered him to be brought under control.
The successful capture of Kuznetsov and the ironclad evidence of Kuznetsov's defection to the enemy on the spot can be said to have cleared the biggest obstacle to the surrender of the Leningrad Army.
Because Kuznetsov was not alone in Leningrad, he was the secretary of the Leningrad city W and the political commissar of the army group, and there were many cadres loyal to the cause of GCISM under his command.
Without uprooting this group of people, it will be very difficult for the Leningrad Army Group to surrender to the enemy in an organized manner.
And the most effective way to uproot these people is undoubtedly to fabricate a "Kuznetsov anti-GM traitor group", and now that the evidence of Kuznetsov's betrayal is conclusive, this group will naturally not run away.
However, if it is really necessary to carry out a purge in the Leningrad Army, it is better to get Stalin's orders, so that the army can be justified in eliminating dissidents.
So, after obtaining the evidence and Kuznetsov's confession - Kuznetsov did not admit that he was a traitor and anti-GM, but only admitted that the empress's letter appeared on his desk, and that he also read the letter and was arrested when he was about to turn it in.
Kuznetsov was a Bolshevik and of course could not be dishonest with the party, and although he knew that his confession would likely lead to death, he still gave a truthful account and believed that Stalin could find out the truth.
On 28 March, his testimony and fateful letters were taken to Moscow by a P-51 fighter jet that took off at night. Early the next morning, Beria personally handed it over to Stalin.
Kuznetsov...... How can it be? When Stalin read the letter and Kuznetsov's confession, he was stunned, and his first reaction was not to believe it.
Kuznetsov is a loyal fighter for GCISM, how could he have betrayed the party?
"Comrade General Secretary, the evidence is conclusive!" Beria didn't actually believe that Kuznetsov would defect. In his order to Abakumov, it was Vlasov to watch out for...... Unexpectedly, Vlasov was not good, but Kuznetsov couldn't resist the temptation first.
"Could it be a mistake?" Stalin still couldn't believe it.
"No, it won't." Beria replied in the affirmative, "The NKVD experts have already verified the notes, and there will be absolutely no mistakes." ”
The letter, of course, was true, and was written by Prince Yusupov and Empress Olga - this is a trap to trap Kuznetsov. And the empress's handwritten letters are in the archives of the NKVD, and there is absolutely no problem in verifying the handwriting.
And Kuznetsov's confession was also written by himself, and there were also a lot of reports written by him in various yamen in Moscow, and there was no problem in checking the notes.
"Will Kuznetsov be beaten?" Stalin asked.
Beria shook his head and said, "No, absolutely not...... If no case has been filed, how can it be punished? ”
Stalin was right when he thought about it, the NKVD was not a department without rules. Kuznetsov is now only under quarantine control, and the posts of the Central Y Commissar, the City W Secretary, and the Political Commissar of the Army Group are all there. How is it possible to beat? This must be beaten, and the NKVD will not rebel?
Therefore, if you want to beat him, the general secretary, you have to order Kuznetsov to be beaten to the end, and he will be beaten after the case is filed and examined.
"File a case for review!" Stalin thought for a while and finally made up his mind. In fact, he had already had a plan to capture Kuznetsov - the fall of most of Leningrad and the emergence of a large number of traitors in the Leningrad Front, for which Kuznetsov, Vlasov and Abakumov were responsible, especially for the emergence of a large number of traitors in the city of Leningrad.
So the capture of Kuznetsov, Vlasov and Abakumov is a must. It's just that it's a little early to arrest now, after all, the Leningrad Army Group is still under siege.
"Tell Abakumov," Stalin instructed, "not to expand, but to arrest a few of the first offenders." ”
"I understand, Comrade General Secretary." Beria was perfectly aware of Stalin's thoughts, and all the "Leningraders" Stalin did not believe in them, but now was not the time for a purge in Leningrad. Otherwise, it would not be the reactionaries who would have been purged, but the last red flag of Leningrad.
However, although Comrade Stalin's ideas were good, the reality was very cruel. Vlasov and Abakumov had already drawn up a list of arrests - the list was not difficult to obtain, and in the previous months, more than one letter of surrender from Peterhin (not all of them were written by Olga himself, most of them were just signed names) had been received by every cadre at and above the regimental level (including the regimental level) in the siege of Leningrad.
Some of them handed over every letter to the counter-espionage department of the army group (as it should be), and they kept it on file with the counter-espionage department of the army group. Others, for various reasons, did not hand in the letter, or did it at first and then did not hand it in.
At present, the counterintelligence department of the group army only needs to arrest people according to the list of more than one person who has submitted a letter of persuasion and surrender, and basically there is no mistake. So on the night that Stalin gave the order to open the case for review, thousands of people were arrested in the siege of Leningrad. Almost all of them are staunch GC fighters......
The real wavering and reactionary elements above the regimental level (including the regimental level) were summoned to a meeting in the Peter and Paul Church in the Peter and Paul Fortress on March 29.
"Comrades," said the commander of the army group, Marshal Vlasov, at the beginning of the meeting, in an unusually grim tone, "to tell you very bad news, the food reserves of the army group will be exhausted in 3 days. ”
"What?"
"Oh my God!"
"What can I do?"
The hall was suddenly boiling, and everyone was taken aback. Because Vlasov is not saying that the food supply is tight, but that after 3 days there will be no food!
Is this going to starve everyone to death?
Vlasov and Abakumov's eyes swept over and over the faces of everyone, and all they saw were panicked faces, and then they put their hearts down.
Vlasov coughed, and the scene gradually became quiet again, and he continued: "Now there are only two ways to go, one is to launch a decisive charge against the Germans outside the encirclement in three days; The second is to surrender to the Russian Empire under God's blessing! ”
