The transliteration of the abbreviation of the Ministry of State Security of the German Democratic Republic of Stasi has a similar meaning to terms such as Gestapo and KGB. When you go to the city of Greater Berlin, you can feel that it is different from the Soviet Union, where even in a capital like Moscow, it is impossible to see so many people in military uniforms moving in public.

When Serov was in the Soviet Union, he had heard of the GDR's counterpart, and the Stasi was arguably the most powerful intelligence agency in the entire Soviet bloc, with the exception of the KGB. In terms of scale, the Stasi naturally does not have the strength of the KGB of the Soviet Union, but you must know that the population of the Soviet Union, where the KGB is located, is nearly 200 million, while the population of the GDR is only more than 10 million.

Lieutenant General Markus Wolfe is Chinese New Year's Eve this year, even in the world, he can be regarded as young and promising, high-powered, and at a young age, he is already the top task of the Stasi, like Erich? Minister Milk, the head of the Stasi, also praised Marcus Wolff.

In terms of appearance, Marcus Wolfe made Serov feel a little familiar, especially the slender eyes, and after thinking about it for a long time, Serov finally remembered that the second person in front of him was very similar to Reinhard Tristan Eugen Heydrich, the second person in the SS of the Third Reich in history, but not as resolute as Heydrich looked, except that his chin was a little big, Markus Wolff wearing a Stasi uniform was simply Heydrich's rebirth.

It may be very strange for Jews to come to the GDR, because the KPA uniforms are basically the same as those of the Wehrmacht during World War II, and the GDR may have retained more Prussian traditions than the Federal Republic of Germany opposite.

The Soviet Union and the United States adopted completely different strategies in the face of the Federal Republic of Germany and the GDR, specifically in terms of the armies of the two countries, the Soviet Union adopted restrictions on the weapons and equipment of the GDR, while the Americans were smarter and started with the education of the whole people, and took action to erase the martial spirit of Germany. The Soviet Union castrated the weapons of the East German People's Army, the United States castrated the soul of the West German Wehrmacht, and decades later the German Wehrmacht has completely lost its military traditions, known for its obesity rate in NATO, and losing to Italy in military exercises is said to be a laughing stock......

However, Serov had to admit that the United States is a master of training, and this kind of silent infiltration and control is much more powerful and deceptive than the Soviet Union's hard-hitting violent suppression. The difference between the Soviet Union and the United States was that every East German citizen knew that the Stasi was spying on his own people, and that the Soviets were the main messengers behind the scenes. And the people of West Germany did not know that the United States was doing the same thing, and the German chancellor, who was monitored by the CIA decades later, pretended to be deaf and dumb and did not comment on the surveillance.

But then again, which kindergarten in the GDR should Merkel be in right now?

"The USSR lost, naturally any kind of dirty water can be poured up! Comrade Stalin said that the victors are not subject to any blame, and it really makes sense! A huge convoy of troops was heading from the Berlin train station to the eastern suburb of Lichtenberg, where the headquarters of the German Ministry of National Security was located, and Chancellor Serov was going to check with his German counterpart about the situation.

Entering the building, the Soviet delegation was ushered into the conference room, where the current Minister of State Security of Germany, Erich ? Milk was already waiting there, and the fifty-two-year-old Erich? Milke controlled the second-largest intelligence agency in the Soviet bloc, and was the most efficient.

In this headquarters building, the German security personnel who came and went were not surprised by the sudden arrival of the Soviets, and it can be said that the arrival of the Soviet delegation was completely ignored, and the pace of these people was not delayed even for a second.

"I have a feeling that although your organizational form is organized according to the experience of the KGB, it seems that in the process of operation, it is much more professional than our KGB!" Serov, who was in the KGB, was proud of himself, and he believed that there was no intelligence agency in the world that could be compared with his own department, and that the CIA in the United States, MI6 in Britain, and MI7 in France were not good, and this was the first time he felt that there was a country whose intelligence agency was more powerful than the KGB.

For Serov, who had always believed that the KGB was omnipotent, it was as difficult as acknowledging that Constantinople was part of Turkey, and coincidentally, he did not know that the German Stasi slogan was, "We are everywhere......

"Comrade Serov is modest, we are not as good as our comrades in the KGB!" Marcus Wolf chuckled.

"Welcome Soviet comrades to Berlin, what we have to face at the moment is the problem of West Berlin!" German Minister of National Security Erich? Milk, welcoming Serov's arrival, began to introduce the current situation.

"But Comrade Stalin should not have made concessions on the Berlin question!" Serov was not talking about the first Berlin crisis, not that the occupation of Berlin had just begun, and that it should not have been agreed to be divided into four-nation occupation zones, and that a cancer had now grown in the GDR.

From the time the GDR closed the border between the GDR and the Federal Republic of Germany, only the border between East and West Berlin remained open. Large numbers of GDR citizens travelled to the Federal Republic of Germany and other Western countries via West Berlin, resulting in a serious exodus of skilled and labour personnel. The loss of human resources caused direct losses to the GDR of about $7 billion to $9 billion, the loss of young labor caused a great loss of investment in education in the GDR, and the loss of professors and other intellectuals made it difficult for the GDR to build its economy.

"The exodus of people is the biggest problem that Germany is facing now, and this loss of personnel has caused the loss of talent in our country now!" Minister of National Security Erich? Milk said irritably, "Imperialism in West Berlin is fueling the flames, and hundreds of thousands of ...... disappear from Germany every year."

Serov propped his head and listened, "The most shameless thing is that he fled to West Germany because of better living conditions, but he still wants to run for freedom in the name of beauty!" If you dislike the poor and love the rich, you can say it directly, obviously dislike the poverty of your motherland, pursue a better life and flee to West Germany, but you still have to say what ideals and ideas! But in terms of ideals, I really don't know of any ideal in the world that is more attractive than communism......"

"We have to find a way to curb the exodus!" Erich? Milk tactfully reminded Serov of the root of the problem.

"I'm going to West Berlin tomorrow, and if I don't look closely at my opponent, how do I know where the weaknesses are?" Serov smiled nonchalantly, and he really wanted to know how the enclave within the GDR worked.
