At a meeting of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, Beria, who knew that he had no way to live, was desperate and ready to sneak out to call his cronies and troops to make a desperate coup d'état.

The other members of the Political Bureau were all very indignant at this guy's despicable behavior of usually striving for merit and favor, and retreating when encountering difficulties, but that's all, what they despised was Beria's personality, but there were several very experienced members of the Political Bureau, and through Beria's unusual move, as well as the implicit murderous intent in Comrade Stalin's tone, they immediately had a guess similar to Stalin's, and they couldn't help but feel excited.

With their understanding of Beria, it is inevitable that in the desperate situation of death, this guy jumps off the wall in a hurry, and he can definitely do it, not to mention, he has a considerable part of the armed forces in his hands, and suddenly, several sharp eyes like an awl shot at Beria's body, as if to shoot him out of several big holes, these eyes from his former comrades-in-arms are enough to make Beria tremble, but what frightens him the most is Stalin's gaze, cold, gloomy, and a huge mouth that devours the soul.

What made Beria difficult to answer was Stalin's words, "The German army will not attack the Soviet Union in a few years," and this remark is still in his ears, and no matter how he quibbles, he cannot escape the responsibility of dereliction of duty, and the consequences of this dereliction of duty will be absolutely catastrophic for the Soviet Union.

Seeing that Beria was like a frosted eggplant, completely wilted, the spirit of his whole body, as if all of his energy had been sucked away in an instant, his face was as ugly as a dead man, Stalin smiled contemptuously, of course. will not appear to deal with it, that is, it is not conducive to stabilizing the hearts of other members of the political bureau, although Beria's popularity, within the Central Committee of the CPSU, stinks home, a powerful official, fell in an instant, and the other members of the political bureau inevitably have the feeling of sadness and sadness.

For himself, it is also a little decent. After all, he had been favored by Beria before, and he was definitely his second confidant, second only to People's Commissar for Foreign Affairs Molotov, who disposed of Beria on the spot. Isn't it just to prove yourself, and you don't have the vision to know people?

But this guy with a bone in the back of his head. It must not be spared. Someone should bear the responsibility for Germany's sudden attack on the Soviet Union in an unsuspecting situation, it cannot be Stalin himself, and the great leader can make mistakes?

So. No matter from any point of view, Beria has to pay the price of his life, which is a political need, and he deserves it. Stalin stood up and slowly walked in front of Perbelia like a shell, in his cold eyes, there was a little pity and melancholy, and a trace of anger, even Stalin himself, he couldn't clearly distinguish what kind of mood he was?

"Comrades, Comrade Beria, as the general coordinator of the Soviet intelligence system, bears an unshirkable responsibility for the sudden attack of the Germans on us, therefore, I have set up a meeting of the Political Bureau to immediately study how to deal with Comrade Beria," Stalin's voice, flat and monotonous, without any emotional overtones, "my personal opinion is that Comrade Beria should be dismissed from all his posts now held and handed over to the Internal Investigation Department of the Main Directorate of Military Intelligence of the General Staff for review, and according to the results of the review, Then make corresponding treatments, and comrades can fully express their opinions! ”

Beria is completely finished, the members of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union have heard Stalin's meaning, this hand is ruthless enough and desperate enough, the General Directorate of Military Intelligence of the General Staff can be said to be Beria's rival, the former lieutenant general, after falling into the hands of Beria's Cheka, his whereabouts are still unknown, however, the members of the Political Bureau who have seen the Cheka's methods know his tragic end, and I am afraid that there are no bones left.

Now, putting Beria in the hands of his old adversary, Comrade Stalin, it is clear that he will not be given a little way to live, what is "censorship?" Everyone believed that Beria would end badly if he fell into the hands of the General Directorate of Military Intelligence, and that charges such as "lurking German spies" and "class dissidents hiding in the party" would soon be placed on Beria's head.

However, none of the members of the Political Bureau of the CPSU took pity on Beria, nor did any of them want to come forward and defend Beria, on the contrary, there was still some pleasure in their hearts to relieve hatred, which was the need of the political struggle.

What's more, Beria's ordinary approach has long caused the wrath of the heavens, and the members of the Political Affairs Bureau who participated in the meeting, their cronies, their families and subordinates have all been more or less rectified by Beria, and now, it is his turn to be unlucky, it can be said that the heavens are clear, the retribution is unpleasant, and it is already commendable to not fall into the well, and it is already commendable to attack him in groups, and it is not necessary or dangerous to beg for him.

Therefore, as soon as Stalin's echo fell, the members of the Political Bureau expressed their support for the leader's opinion, and soon formed a resolution to examine Beria, and at this point, Beria, who had been in power in the Soviet Union for a while, turned the clouds and rained the clouds, and the fierce flames of Beria, both his political life and his personal life, had come to an end.

Under the hateful and complicated gaze of the members of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, Beria, who was like a walking corpse, walked out of the conference room under the escort of two tall officers, announcing that the mastermind and implementer of the bloody rebellion in the whole Soviet Union had since disappeared from everyone's field of vision.

The most painful thing is that Marshal Petroshilov, the chief of the General Staff of the Soviet Army, has finally been swept away from a dark cloud that has pressed on the head of the General Staff, and more importantly, Beria has fallen into his own hands, and he can avenge the countless old subordinates who were killed in the name of rebellion, and Marshal Petroshilov, who was immersed in ecstasy and revenge, even forgot about Comrade Stalin's attitude towards himself just now.

The disposition of Beria was nothing more than a small episode at a meeting of the Political Bureau of the CPSU, and the meeting immediately returned to the topic, Stalin's face had completely regained its calm, and that majestic leadership temperament appeared again in this strongman.

Stalin looked at everyone and said: "I still have to criticize the work of the General Staff, although this is due to the dereliction of duty of Comrade Beria, but Comrade Petroshilov, as the chief of the General Staff, also has an unshirkable responsibility, well, now is not the time to hold accountable, but to study, how to deal with the invasion of the Germans!" ”

Marshal Petroshilov breathed a long sigh of relief, but he did not expect that Comrade Stalin would let himself go so gently, fighting a war is a matter within the General Staff, and it was impossible for him not to be the first to speak, he stood up and said: "Comrade Stalin, comrades, needless to say, the situation we are facing now is very grim and dangerous, in the western border area, our troops are very few, moreover, most of them are second-line troops, in the face of the fierce attack of the German army, it is not surprising that we cannot organize effective resistance! ”

"Therefore, my opinion is, first, to immediately issue an order to transfer back as quickly as possible all the units fighting in the east, including Zhukov's units of the Far Eastern Front, to the western theater, and second, to order all military districts on the western border to immediately issue an order to their subordinate troops, abandon the border area, fight with the German army, withdraw an average of 300 kilometers from each unit, and then, relying on favorable terrain, organize a defensive line."

"The purpose of this is to avoid the troops that can be mobilized at the moment from being consumed prematurely in the face of the superior German attack, and to gain the longest time for our main forces in the east to return to reinforcements.

"Another important point is that all the reserve troops that can be mobilized at present, as well as the cadets of military academies throughout the Soviet Union, should be immediately mobilized to form field troops and organize a second line of resistance behind the defense lines of the various military districts on the western border, at a distance of about 100 kilometers, so that the momentum of the German army's advance can be stopped, and the troops that will persist in the eastern theater will come to the rescue.

Marshal Petroshilov's opinion was clearly stated and dealt with appropriately, showing that the extremely high military quality of an old soldier is also the only effective method at present, and only by blocking the offensive momentum of the German army can the main force in the eastern theater be supported, in other words, to use the Soviet Union's national defense reserve force to spell out a time conducive to the mobilization of the Soviet army.

Stalin was obviously very satisfied with Marshal Petroshilov's opinion, and he responded appropriately and in a very orderly manner, "Comrades, Comrade Petroshilov, we have already come up with a way to deal with the situation of the war, and I think there is no need to discuss it, the General Staff began to continue military mobilization, and in addition, immediately issued an order to the Far Eastern Front, the Outer Mongolian Front, the Trans-Khingan Front, and the Baikal Front on the Eastern Front, to immediately return to the western regions. "Stalin made the final decision, and the opinion of the General Staff was turned into a resolution of the meeting of the Political Bureau.

Obviously, Stalin's words were not finished, "At present, our biggest enemy is not the Japanese Kwantung Army, not even the troops of the Chinese Tang Qiuli, but the menacing German army, therefore, we must use the most powerful troops to block the German army from continuing to advance deep into our territory, as for the war on the eastern battlefield, it has become a secondary direction, the four front armies, each of which can leave one group army unit, and the main forces all rush to the western battlefield!" ”
