Chapter 155 Beria
Moscow, at a certain train station, a military train was slowly entering the station. Kilponos and He Chi were sitting opposite each other in the carriage.
Lea, who had never been to Moscow, was whispering to Tanya. The little girl could only lie down because of her injuries.
He Chi, on the other hand, kept looking outside through the window, and looked at his watch from time to time, subconsciously ignoring what the general said.
"Hey, you seem to be very curious about this place?" The general had no choice but to make excuses for himself.
"Oh, yes, Comrade General, I am very interested in this place." Only then did He Chi react and nodded to take over the topic.
"Oh? What kind of interest?" Kilponos rarely saw the Easterner opposite focusing on something.
"Of course it is a strategic interest." He Chi pointed out the window and said casually.
“Your Excellency, from the map, this train station is located in the northeast of Moscow and is a hub connecting northern Russia and Siberia. If the reinforcements and supplies we have formed in the rear want to reach Moscow quickly, this is the most convenient transportation. Point."
"I think if the Germans plan to cut off Moscow's supplies, this will definitely be an important target."
The general looked at He Chi. He Chi would surprise him from time to time
"Are you also involved in tactical knowledge?" the general asked with some surprise. In his impression, spies and Professional soldiers are still different in this regard.
"No, I just accidentally dabbled in it when I was studying." He Chi answered ambiguously.
The general thought it was a short training that the other party participated in when receiving intelligence officer training, and did not say much, but in fact, what He Chi said was that he had come into contact with some documents on the Moscow Defense War when he was in college.
The battle for Yaroslavl Railway Station was a large-scale battle. Each side invested thousands of people, and the battle lasted for nearly a week.
The train stopped, and He Chi and his party followed the general onto the platform.
At this time, Yaroslavl Railway Station has fully implemented military management. There are about seven or eight machine gun positions visible, as well as bunkers temporarily converted from buildings, and there are even more on both sides. Several 37mm anti-aircraft guns were erected.
However, what is different from other places is that the people here carrying guns and standing guard and setting up positions are not wearing military uniforms. Judging from their clothes, they are ordinary citizens. These citizens are led by some people wearing red armbands. The fortifications are constantly being reinforced.
"Where have all the soldiers gone?" General Kilponos also saw that something was not right.
"They are soldiers!" A voice came from the other end of the platform.
The sound of military boots sounded, and military police were running forward to guard on both sides. A thin man wearing glasses appeared at the end of the passage.
The intelligence chief of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Lavrenty Pavlovich Beria.
"Comrade Kirponos, welcome back to Moscow, Comrade Stalin misses you very much." Beria strode over and extended his hand.
"Hello, Comrade Beria, how come you don't see soldiers on duty in such an important place like the train station?" The general held the other person's hand and went straight to the topic without any greetings.
"As I just said, they are all soldiers, a workers' division formed by workers from the Moscow Steel Plant and nearby factories. There are about 9,000 people in total." Beria pointed out the trenches and bunkers being dug aside. troop status.
"But these workers seem to be poorly trained. I'm afraid they will be directly dragged into the battlefield..."
"Sorry, Comrade Kilponos, you may not understand the current situation in Moscow. Our manpower resources are very tight. We need to organize citizens to join the militia. It was an order given by Comrade Stalin himself," Beria added emphasis on the last half of the sentence.
Then the spy chief added, "As for the lack of training, I believe the battlefield will be the best classroom."
"Well, according to Comrade Stalin's request, please go to the Kremlin now. Palace, he is waiting for you there, and I will arrange for your entourage to rest first." Beria opened the door of a car in person. Kilponos didn't think much, he bent down and got into the car, then stuck his head out of the window and said to several other people, "You go and rest first, I will contact you later."
The car drove away, and Beria put down the hand he just raised, and glanced over with a cold gaze.
Beklev and Yulia hurriedly stood at attention and saluted as if they had been immobilized.
"You did a good job in Kiev. I have heard about it." Beria walked over and stretched out his hand to pat the dust on Beklev's shoulder. "The Ministry of Internal Affairs will not treat outstanding intelligence agents badly. You The awards and medals will be released in the next few days, and the award ceremony will be held by Comrade Stalin Hosted in person."
Hearing that Stalin personally awarded the honor, Beklev showed an excited look on his face, but he has not forgotten who brought the honor to him. "Sir, about the details of this operation in Kiev. I want to report to you..."
Hmm? Beria glanced at it, and Beklev shut his mouth instantly.
"You two go to the headquarters to report your work first, and we will discuss other matters later." The spy leader pointed to another car, with an unquestionable tone in his mouth.
The two of them could only sit down behind each other, and Yulia looked out the window worriedly.
"007, Hero of Dunkirk, Channel Fox, White Knight...how should I call you appropriately?" Beria looked at He Chi with a unique smile on his face.
"Just call me by my name, I think you should know." He Chi acted neither humble nor overbearing.
"Okay, then I will call you the same name as them. I hope you don't mind." Beria turned sideways. "As a colleague, I have many questions to ask you. Do you mind? Shall I leave for a while?”
He Chi looked at each other, raised his hand and looked at the watch again, smiled and nodded, "As you wish."
Tanya and Leah were left to rest elsewhere, and a car quickly He Chi was taken to a large building in Moscow.
"Please hand over your weapons." The guard at the door stopped the two people, and Beria handed the pistol to the other party naturally.
"Don't mind, this is the rule of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and I am no exception." Beria said.
He Chi nodded and handed over the seized Ruger pistol from his waist. The soldiers searched him after entering.
After passing checkpoints, Beria's entourage guided He Chi to a small conference room.
Someone brought tea and snacks, and Beria waved his hand and asked others to leave.
"The following is the conversation of our professionals, and it is limited to this room." Beria looked at He Chi and said.
"I agree" He Chi nodded.
"Then let me get straight to the point. Take these things." Beria threw out a bunch of things.
He Chi reached out and took it, and found that it was a roll of large-denomination U.S. bills, weighing a full 10,000 yuan.
In 1941, this was a huge windfall.
"What does this mean?" He Chi looked at the thing in his hand and put it down.
"I know everything about Kiev. My two intelligence agents are under your care, but for some special reason, I hope you can remain silent on this incident." Beria He made his request directly without any detours.
