After coming to Moscow, today is the first time to leave the villa by car, and Long Yun's schedule is naturally very tight.

Swaggering into the Supreme Soviet Building, he first registered in a committee-specific office, completed the necessary security checks, and then walked with Valentina through the unoccupied building corridor and down the completely enclosed stairwell to the underground building area.

When he went through the security check in the office, Long Yun handed over his gun, but Valentina, who accompanied him, did not make similar moves, it seems that this agent has a very high level of gun license; After entering the stairwell, the alert-looking detective took out the small Makarov and screwed the muffler, which made Long Yun, who was following behind, quite appreciative, and he felt that it was impossible for him to pull out a gun as quickly as Valya:

"Uh, Valya; We're already in the building, so there's no need to be so nervous. ”

"Perhaps, but it's my job."

With both hands pressed in front of her, the gentle girl on weekdays seemed to have changed all of a sudden, in fact, after getting out of the car just now, she had already entered a state of vigilance of seeing six roads and listening to all directions, but Long Yun, who was not familiar with this, couldn't see it. As a seasoned intelligence officer, Valentina knows that habitual thinking is a human weakness, and even in the almost absolute security of the Soviet building, she will be able to keep her target safe.

Holding a gun and slowly moving forward, such a completely dedicated precautionary act made Long Yun, who followed Valentina down the stairs, quite admired, but at the same time he also felt a little helpless, because he knew very well that there was no threat around him now. Young agents don't have to work so hard to keep an eye on the surroundings.

The journey was uneventful. Walk through the dimly lit stairwell with some cold smell to the second basement floor. Walking into the corridor where there were also no human figures, Long Yun began to have some déjà vu with the scene in front of him.

Yes, the heart of the Red Empire, he had visited once a few months ago.

Unlike the above-ground part of the Soviet Building, the corridors of the underground buildings are covered with a layer of waterproof and non-slip resin, and the slight "creaking" sound of leather shoes on them evokes the memory of the young man who has traveled to a parallel world. The first time I came to Moscow to receive a promotion order and a medal was in the underground part of the building, in the office of General Secretary Malenkov, to be exact.

Time has passed, the world has changed, and now he has come here again, he has also been called by the general secretary, but he doesn't know what it will be for?

Thinking about Victor's current identity, Long Yun guessed as he walked that he felt that the general secretary was looking for an air force general. It will definitely not be a negotiation country, so most of them just want to ask about the specific situation on the front line, and by the way, also to comfort him, the ace killer who has returned from the front line. After all, having met twice before, he thinks that Malenkov has a good impression of Viktor Rezenov, or that there is already some friendship between the two.

Walking through the long winding corridor and entering the core area of the building through a security gate guarded by the guards, Long Yun asked Valentina to wait in the rest area where he had waited for the summons last time, while he went to another office with a bulging bag and took a few minutes to change into a slightly wrinkled general's uniform; There was no mirror in the office, and Long Yun, who had just changed into a military uniform, walked out of the door awkwardly, and asked Valentina, who got up, to help him sort out the details such as epaulettes and necklines, and then strode towards an office at the end of the corridor.

"Ah, hello, Victor!"

Hearing the sound of the guards, Konstantin Malenkov, who had been working at his desk but was really a little absent-minded, pressed the button and opened the office door, he got up from his seat quite rarely, walked around the desk and walked to the door to greet the combat hero who had returned from the front.

Seeing the oncoming Malenkov, Long Yun was no longer as cramped as when they first met, but he was still a little nervous:

"Hello, Comrade General Secretary!"

"Please come and sit down, our comrade lieutenant general, hehe!"

Although he was still hesitating about Viktor's affairs before, and really saw the energetic and radiant young lieutenant general, Malenkov still greeted him with a hearty smile, he temporarily put down his work, paced to the small table as he did last time, and poured himself and Viktor a small glass of clear vodka.

Returning to the sofa with a wine glass in both hands, he sat down comfortably and leaned on the backrest, Malenkov first glanced at the young man in military uniform in front of him, and then asked very kindly:

"I already know the approximate arrangements for coming to Moscow this time, how about it, can I still get used to the recuperation behind closed doors?"

"Ah...... Not bad,"

Hearing the general secretary's casual inquiry, Long Yun didn't feel the need to be nervous, he replied quite naturally and truthfully, "It's a little awkward at first, but after the battle, such a recuperation opportunity is still very precious, and I am ready to take this opportunity to adjust my condition and deal with the more difficult tasks in the future." ”

"Hehe, I always think that the task will not be accomplished, so I should focus on resting!"

Laughing and teasing, Malenkov raised his hand and waved, he picked up a small wine glass to signal to Victor, and the young man hurriedly raised his wine glass as well, "Now that the shape of the Southern Theater is very good, you have a chance to withdraw from the front line; However, the next battle we will face will only be more complicated, and it is no wonder that you can't completely relax when you are recuperating.

Now, let's have a toast first, and may the flames of war be extinguished as soon as possible! It ended, of course, with our victory. ”

After drinking the liquor in the small glass, and the little drinking session seemed to be over, the general secretary got up again, poured two glasses of lemonade, and began to talk to the number one ace of the Red Air Force in front of him about the current war situation.

Talking to front-line combatants about strategy may not be of much value if they are dealing with ordinary people; However, after several previous meetings, Malenkov already knew that this young man with outstanding military achievements was extraordinary, that the KGB had already sent him on an extremely dangerous secret mission, that there were many mysteries about him, and that what intrigued him the most was that he found that the air killer also had a pretty good strategic vision.

In short, a promising man born for war and has no weaknesses should be closer to the real situation.

"Well, Viktor, you must have followed the current war situation as well; Yesterday morning, Moscow time, John Bull and the Japanese demonstrated one after another, and you must already know about it. After several months of war competition, the Americans seem to have no benefit, and now they have let the client state come to such a 'show', although the acting skills can be called clumsy, but it has to be said that it is a strategic trend that cannot be ignored.

On this matter, oh, Victor, there has been some discussion at the previous meeting of the Political Bureau; However, I would like to hear your views on these developments: now that the combat operations in the Southern Theater are coming to an end, and the 'soft underbelly' of our territory is no longer a concern in operational planning, how do you think it is appropriate to respond to such provocations by the NATO bloc? ”

After saying this, he looked at Viktor with interest, and General Secretary Malenkov on the sofa squinted his eyes and smiled calmly, waiting for the young man's answer.

After some contact some time ago, he always felt that although this Red Air Force ace was a front-line combatant, he had the potential to become a strategic observer; But now it seems that he has played a more significant role on the front line, so he can only use the brief time of the meeting to exchange a word or two, and by the way, he can also provide some inspiration for his own decision-making.

Facing the general secretary's question, sitting on the sofa with a straight waist, Long Yun muttered for a moment before opening his mouth, he needed to organize his thoughts well.

As for himself, because he came from another world with different trajectories, he encountered several heavy events in the parallel world that did not occur in reality, so naturally there was no ready-made history to refer to, and it was very difficult for Long Yun to analyze this situation. However, unlike the situation a few months ago, the current Long Yun has been fighting and living in a parallel world for a long time, and out of fear of "historical distortion", his observation of this bizarre world is becoming more and more detailed, so it is not a problem to mention his own opinion.

In the face of the top leader of the huge Soviet Union, Konstantin Malenkov was a very approachable general secretary, at least when facing Viktor, so that Long Yun did not feel any pressure:

"Well, Comrade General Secretary, if you want to talk about the actions of Britain and Japan, my personal opinion is that they are obviously carried out at the behest of the Americans, or rather, they are simply carrying out the will of the Americans.

Because I feel that whether it is Britain's regaining control of strategic nuclear weapons or Japan's accession to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, these measures will not do them much good, but will pay a greater price: in the present situation, since the military action in the Middle East is coming to an end, and Japan will certainly not lightly talk about a truce, in this case, it is necessary to make a posture of frontal challenge.

Hey! Don't you think you're asking for your own trouble? ”

"'Ask for your own hardships,' well...... It's kind of interesting, huh! Victor, you go on. ”

Hearing the young man in front of him, as soon as he opened his mouth, he told the true face of the incident, and the general secretary with a focused expression picked up the water cup and raised his glass to Long Yun twice. (To be continued......)
