"Check the situation with Comrade Aristov, well, secretly, that's it!" Serov clung his neck to the phone, his eyes still on the surveillance file on the table, not knowing what was going on in his mind.

Aristov was the Chairman of the Supreme Soviet of the Russian Federation of the USSR and Deputy Chairman of the Bureau of the Russian Federation. In terms of rank, it was second only to Brezhnev in the Soviets. Second-in-command of the Soviets. The reason why Aristov became the leader of the Soviet Union also starts from the defeat of the Malenkov group a few years ago, when after the defeat of the Malenkov group, Aristov, Kozlov, Fortseva and others were valued by Khrushchev and entered the Central Presidium to replace Malenkov and Molotov.

Khrushchev, who was forced by the Malenkov clique, used a large number of newcomers and old people. In one year he promoted seven senior secretaries: Aristov, Brezhnev, Belyaev, Kuusinin, Kirichen, Ignatov and Muchtedinov.

However, unlike Kozlov, who was quickly promoted by Khrushchev to become the second secretary, Aristov, Ignatov, Fortseva, and Mukhitinov did not remain in office, and later lost their positions as members of the Central Presidium, and at the same time became a backup member.

"It seems that in history Aristov played a lot of forces when Khrushchev stepped down!" Serov, who put down the phone, said to himself, this is not impossible to understand, today's Soviet Union is no different from the Stalin era, but Khrushchev replaced Stalin's position, in terms of authority, Khrushchev is not inferior to Stalin, but he does not have Stalin's existence for a day, no one dares to raise the aura of opposition to the mind.

This may also have something to do with the fact that Khrushchev reduced the intensity of the struggle, and in this case there seems to be a trace of unrealistic illusions rising in the hearts of some people, yes, quite unrealistic. In fact, with Khrushchev's current authority, the coup d'état is very difficult, not to mention Aristov himself, even if there are a few more supporters of the coup d'état, he will inevitably suffer a shameful defeat.

"It seems that I am a little complaining about the dismissal of the senior secretary of my secretariat and the members of the presidium of the Central Committee!" In fact, it is still the unstable butt that is dissatisfied with Khrushchev, and if Khrushchev had used Brezhnev's method, it is estimated that there would be no opponents, and the problem is that Khrushchev has transferred cadres too frequently.

If this question has just begun to ferment, Serov fiddled with the pen in his hand and thought for a moment, and finally a smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, "I'll lay out the situation first and see how many cadres are dissatisfied with Khrushchev?" ”

If Khrushchev steps down immediately, his successor will certainly not be himself, or even Sherepin, and there are only three people who are qualified to already occupy a good position, that is, Brezhnev, Kosygin and Podgorny. So don't talk about Aristov himself, even if there are a few more coups, Serov will kill them all, maybe Khrushchev will promote himself.

The whole decision was not difficult to make, and all Serov needed now was to mobilize his forces and look at Aristov to see if he was just whining on his own or if he was really ready to act. Serov, of course, hoped that it was the latter, his broadsword was already hungry and thirsty, and no credit was given to the coup d'état, and if the heads of these people were exchanged for war merits, it was impossible to imagine how much gain was waiting for him.

This matter cannot be discussed with others, neither Itvasov nor Sakhatowsky can be discussed, you must find someone you can trust, "When Major General Ityansky of the Special Investigation Department comes to me, that's all!" Serov, who picked up the phone, asked the operator to bring in the head of the Special Investigation Department, which is also a unit at the level of the KGB's General Directorate, and is one of several special units along with the Operations Enforcement Department and the Technical Management Department, and Major General Ityansky is the head of the Special Investigation Department.

The professionalism of the members of the Special Investigation Department is not inferior to that of the foreign agents of the First Directorate, and in some respects it is a little stronger. The distinction between the work of the Special Investigation Department and the Operations Enforcement Department is not so clear, except that the Operations Enforcement Department simply kills, while the Special Investigation Department usually does not kill people when it is on duty in the country, and sometimes when the Operations Enforcement Department is understaffed, the Special Investigation Department will also go abroad to help. Serov, who put down the phone, continued to look at the black file, the black file and the ordinary file corresponding, the people in it are all problem people within the scope of KGB monitoring, criminal offenders, people with pro-Western thoughts, and the list of cadres who can't be judged for the time being, but it is recommended to use carefully, the file of the map was copied by Serov In the black file, as long as someone promotes the map to a higher position, the file will be automatically triggered.

"The first secretary attaches great importance to the ideas of cadres, and the existence of some rumors is always bad, do you have any problems?" Serov, who crossed Erlang's legs, looked at Major General Ityansky in front of him and asked.

"As long as the chairman decides, I will immediately let people take control, how long will I observe?" Since there is no problem with the chairman of the KGB, there is no problem with being an executor, Major General Ityansky, this is just part of the job. Major General Ityansky's thinking is the same as Serov's constant stabbing but he didn't care at all, anyway, he was just carrying out orders, and if something happened, he should not be punished as an executor.

"The time is uncertain, it's all part of the job, and when it feels like it's okay, it's natural for you to retreat." Serov sighed, it was time for him to wipe someone else's buttocks, which was a little bit of an understanding of Shelepin's mood at that time.

"By the way, pay attention to Cuba!" Serov suddenly remembered that the Special Investigation Department still had a part of the task of training anti-American guerrillas overseas, but the area of activity of the Special Investigation Department was very concentrated, and all of them were concentrated in Latin America, and this kind of work in other areas was not under the management of the Special Investigation Department.

The reason for this is that the Special Investigation Department is more specialized, and it is more specialized than the First Directorate in infiltration operations. The United States was too strong in Latin America, and the KGB was mainly there to make trouble, hoping that the First General Directorate would not be overinvested, so it was handed over to the Special Investigation Department.

After Major General Ityansky left, it didn't take long for Servanov to come in and hand over a piece of waste paper, the corners of Serov's mouth twitched with difficulty, let Servanov go out, opened the drawer next to him, and put a high-resolution magnifying glass on his eyes.

"What kind of technology is this, it is worthy of the old imperialism, and my Hubble is a little unclear!" Muttering as he adjusted the multiplier, it took a while for Serov to memorize all the words on it, and then ignited it.

The person who corresponded with Serov, Anthony, one of the famous Cambridge Five? Brent. When the two exchanged letters for the first time, Serov was already preparing to step down as director of the Department of Foreign Intelligence, and by chance he found a clue about the Cambridge Five. Serov then established contact with the rest of the five masters, and at the same time cut off the other KGB and the Cambridge five masters, and transferred many of the people who came into contact with them in order to protect them.

The KGB's plan to train spies is really clever. They chose to look to Cambridge, where the young talent was full of young talents, in the brainstorming thirties, but not to the open Communists and working-class children, who were suspicious of the government and had no hope of entering the core institutions of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the intelligence services, which had traditionally been dominated by the children of the middle and upper classes. They are also very patient, nurturing new people like winemaking, and are willing to spend years or even decades waiting for new wines to become old wines. The story is now well known: after graduating from Cambridge, the four of them either joined the BBC, the Foreign Office and MI5 and 6, providing a steady stream of intelligence to Stalin and later Soviet leaders, directly influencing the course of World War II, Cold War strategy and the atomic bomb program, until 51 when Burgess and McLean were exposed and fled to the Soviet Union.

Brandt's mother was the sister of the Earl of Strathmore, in other words, Brandt was the fourth-generation great-grandson of the British Crown. Brandt visited the Soviet Union as part of a delegation of Cambridge University students, visiting Moscow and Leningrad, and the development of the Soviet Union had a great impact on his ideas. After returning to England, Brandt wrote for the media, praising and praising the socialist construction of the Soviet Union, and wrote an exploratory essay "The Art of Socialism and Capitalism", which was valued by the art world. He was the director and professor of an art research institute, and he was not only a man of great accomplishments, but also a well-known author.

In recent years, the KGB has basically not taken the initiative to contact the Cambridge Five, in order to protect them, but this time Serov had to reconnect with Anthony, one of the Five? Brandt contacted to help Elizabeth Taylor. Anthony? Brandt was a serious royal relative, a knighthood, and most importantly a man of great prestige in the British art world, which was unmatched by other Soviet spies, which helped to cut off Hollywood's plans.

"Dear Anthony, your friend needs your help now, as we all know that the cultural hegemony of the United States is very solid, so our attack direction must be the film and television industry, in order to prevent communism from being demonized, we have taken certain actions!" Serov picked up the pen and brushed it down on the letter, vaguely introducing the purpose of some actions. Finally, ask Anthony in a sincere tone? Brant helps.

For the Cambridge Five Heroes, it is useless to talk about money, they are all real communists, and they hope that the Soviet Union will successfully develop and overcome the current bad way of life, so it is better to talk more about doctrine and international feelings. In the remuneration will make them dissatisfied. (To be continued.) )
