Ravrenj. Pavlovich. Beria was born in a small town near Sukhumi, the capital of Abkhazia, Georgia, to peasant parents. After graduating from a technical school, he joined the Bolsheviks in Baku in March 1917 and took part in revolutionary activities in Azerbaijan and Georgia.

In 1921, he joined the Cheka, the predecessor of the KGB, the first political police organization in Soviet Russia, and served as chairman of the General Political Security Service of Georgia and political leaders of the South Caucasus republics, and made these republics join the Soviet Union.

After the purge began in 1934, he became one of the main executors of the purge, a confidant of Stalin, and one of the important leaders of the Bolsheviks in Soviet Russia.

After the end of World War II, he was promoted to military marshal by Stalin, and before Stalin's death, he became the de facto number two man in Soviet Russia, but he is now only the Minister of Internal Affairs, in charge of all the Chekas.

After receiving Stalin's order, Beria rushed to Far Eastern China by plane on the same day, and after several changes, finally came to the town of Five Banners in the northwest, where the Central Committee of the Datong Party was located.

Wuqi Town is said to be a small town, in fact, after a few months of construction, it has now become a small city of considerable scale, but it is still mainly a military fortress, which not only has the Central Guard Regiment stationed to protect the Party Central Committee, but also the Anti-Military and Political University and the Worker, Peasant and Military Technical College, among which the Military and Political University and the Technical College of Workers, Peasants and Soldiers occupy the most extensive area, and many people in the Red Army are temporarily living in it to study.

When Beria arrived in Wuqi Town, the Datong Party had already built a simple airport outside Wuqi Town, which was very good in Beria's opinion, because most of the airfields at this time were only slightly flat, and there was no airport like Datong that was very smooth with cement.

Looking at the "airstrip" in front of him, Beria had to sigh that overseas organizations were indeed wealthy, and the temporary airports were all made of cement.

After getting off the plane, Beria saw the people who greeted him, there were not many of them, but they were all heavyweights, and the only one he knew was Wang Ming, so he said hello to Wang Ming as soon as possible.

Among the people in charge of greeting, Wang Ming's Russian was the best, so he naturally became Beria's interpreter, and introduced the leaders of the Datong Party to Beria with a smile, this is General Secretary Zhang Wentian, and that is Chairman Li Shengshi, and he does not see that he has just had a conflict with the Central Committee of the Datong Party not long ago.

With Wang Ming's introduction, Beria greeted him one by one, and said a few more words when facing Li Shengshi, because he understood that the real person in charge of the Datong Party at this time was not Zhang Wentian, the general secretary, but Li Shengshi, the chairman of the Military Commission.

After a brief meeting, the Datong Party prepared a small welcoming ceremony for Beria to review the military might of the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army.

On both sides of the airport, there were neat-looking Red Army soldiers, all of whom were dressed in regular uniforms, and the dark green military uniforms were particularly dazzling, coupled with the temperament of the Red Army soldiers who had undergone the baptism of blood and fire, they almost shocked Beria for a while, and they didn't even pay much attention to the new rifles in the hands of the soldiers.

After reviewing the military prestige of the Red Army, Beria was taken down to enjoy some Chinese food, although the Datong Party has always advocated diligence and thrift, it still tries to maintain a rich reception to the outside world, not to mention that they are not short of money for that meal now, so they naturally entertained Beria with the highest standard, which made Beria a little lingering.

After the welcome banquet, the Datong Party did not rush to discuss cooperation with Beria, but left him some time to rest. The planes of 1936 were not comparable to the luxury airliners of the 21st century, and after continuous flights, Beria was already tired, and if he did not have a good rest, how could he have the spirit to continue the negotiations on cooperation between the two parties.

It wasn't until the next day that Beria regained his spirits, and the Datong Party visited again, but he did not rush to discuss cooperation, but took Beria around Wuqi Town, from military equipment to industrial equipment, to medical equipment and medicines, and read everything on the cooperation list, until Beria was itching, and then officially talked about cooperation.

After seeing the physical objects on the list, Beria was indeed quite excited, although he had already seen the specific situation of all the materials from the data, he still maintained a certain amount of doubt in his heart, after all, those things were too advanced, even the most daring scientists did not have the corresponding scientific theories, but overseas organizations had already directly reached the stage of practical use and completed the research on mass production.

If someone says these things, they will definitely be called crazy, and Beria is about the same, but as an intelligence officer, although he doesn't believe it, he doesn't deny it, and many things are not confirmed in person, and it is difficult for you to distinguish the specific authenticity, so he will fly to northwest China without hesitation after receiving the order.

After really seeing the real objects in the materials, Beria's mood can only be described as shock, he really can't believe that it only took a few years for overseas organizations to master these things, if it is only a huge amount of money, to be able to explain, but from weapon design to manufacturing, how much time and money is needed, Beria can still understand a thing or two, and it is impossible for overseas organizations to complete the production and manufacturing from design and development in just a few years.

But the facts are in front of you, and you can't afford not to admit it, and Beria finally has to blame this on the fact that there are already scientists or research laboratories in the world who are carrying out these designs and research and development, and overseas organizations are just coincidental and take the results of these scientists and research laboratories into their own hands.

Only in this way can we explain the source of technical data in the hands of overseas organizations, and it is not at all possible to rely on overseas organizations to develop their own data.

After the shock, Beria suddenly realized why the central leaders would rather take great risks to cooperate with overseas organizations, and if it were him, he would also be eager to snatch everything that overseas organizations have into his pocket, it was simply too tempting.

Among them, Beria's favorite was a tank called "T-34", and just the moment he saw it, Beria fell in love with it.

When the T-26 was still in use in China, the T-34 was simply a big killer on the battlefield, and its 76mm L/30.5 cannon L-11 far exceeded the 37mm guns used by most tanks today, crushing all current tanks in terms of firepower.

Relative to the powerful firepower, the T-34's defense is also excellent, with 45 mm of body armor and 60 mm of turret armor, and the thickness of the armor far exceeds that of the T-26, and the T-34 also uses inclined armor that Beria never thought of, making the actual armor thickness of the T-34 much thicker than the data.

According to experts from the Datong Party, inclined armor not only increases the actual armor thickness of the tank, but also has an incomparable effect on defense, that is, it increases the chance of jumping eggs, making the T-34 tank have better survivability compared to other tanks.

In addition, another advantage of the T-34 over traditional tanks is the engine, which uses an unprecedented diesel engine, which is not only powerful, but also has a much smaller chance of fire after being shot than a tank with a gasoline engine.

Beria knew that most of the world's tank losses were not directly destroyed, but after the fuel tank was ignited. After using a diesel engine, the chance of fire is reduced, and the survival rate naturally increases exponentially.

In addition to reducing the chance of fire, the viscous nature of diesel also allows diesel engines to fight in more severe weather, rather than being unable to start at low temperatures, as is the case with gasoline engines.

This is the most suitable for Soviet Russia, because it is located in northern Europe, and it is in a low temperature state all year round, and there is more snow than sunny days, and it is often impossible to start after the gasoline freezes.

After switching to the T-34 tank, this concern was completely resolved, and could Beria not be excited.

Excitement is excitement, when it was time to really negotiate, Beria quickly regained his composure, and he was careful about the replacement conditions of each technology, constantly lowering the price, and striving to exchange the minimum price for the greatest benefit.

Although the Datong Party was in urgent need of technical personnel to supplement, it would not be wronged, and bargained with Beria-for-tat, Cheng Yun, Li Shengmin, and Deng Xiaopoor took turns to argue with Beria, and had nothing to say, and finally determined a price that was acceptable to both sides.

After the price was negotiated, it was the actual personnel placement problem, which was the purpose of Beria's personal visit.

As before, the Pax Romana promises to control the movement of people and keep them completely confined to China, leaving them without leaving China for life.

On this point, the upper echelons of Soviet Russia have basically agreed, but they still put forward various opinions to the Datong Party on the details of the issue, such as not being able to join the army, not being able to enter politics, not being able to engage in important technical positions, and not even having an identity.

The Datong Party understood the concerns of the Soviet and Russian sides, so they agreed to these conditions one by one, and their initial purpose was not to ask Soviet and Russian technicians to help them build, but as an instructor to train technical personnel, teaching as the mainstay, work as a supplement, only with their own technical personnel, the future of the new China can truly move towards prosperity and strength.

In addition, for some important figures, the Soviet and Russian sides hope to maintain a certain state of surveillance, so that these technicians who came to China will not form gangs and eventually become a force to be reckoned with.

In this regard, the Datong Party also has the same attitude, no one wants to raise tigers in their own backyards, and after the arrival of the Soviet Russian "support personnel", most of them will be scattered to various places to carry out teaching work, and they will never be given the opportunity to "connect in tandem."
