Chapter 1616 The unscrupulous choice (third update, please subscribe)
Chang'an, Investigation Department.
After the crisis, as the investigation department of the intelligence center, this place became the center of the storm.
After all, in a crisis, intelligence work is related to the final evolution direction of the crisis.
As the person in charge of all this, Jia Wentao basically lived and ate and lived in the office after the crisis.
Although, 8 hours of working days are followed here, everyone is working overtime during special times.
The camp bed is standard for everyone.
Faced with the situation of life and death, no one will have any hesitation.
Following through the information sent back from the Berlin Intelligence Station, Jia Wentao said: "What do he want?"
At this critical moment, a senior kgb figure wanted to defect to this side, which was really unexpected. It was because of this that Jia Wentao cared about what this person wanted.
There are many different reasons for people to betray their motherland: they are resentful, have different ideas and consciousness, are not promoted and reused, hate their only boss, are worried about being recruited and dealt with, etc.
Of course, for the Russians, in addition to these reasons, there is another extremely special reason - it is the shattering of disillusionment when seeing the corruption, lies and nepotism around them.
"According to the information he revealed, the high-level struggle in Moscow is very fierce at present, and he is likely to be dealt with as a scapegoat.
What he has done is just for himself Just insurance."
Yu Zhentao thought for a while, and then added: "Of course we don't rule out that he was a double spy who was deliberately released. After all, this period is a very sensitive period."
< br>Releasing double-faced spies to the other party in the spy game is a normal operation method.
Listening with Yu Zhentao's report, Jia Wentao thought for a while, and then said: "It's very critical now. We need all aspects of the situation, even if it's double-faced spies, they release it. The information that comes out may also be helpful to us. And our people will find out whether his information is valuable and meet his requirements."
In this way, after Chang'an approved the action, Shi Jingli began his action.
In such an action, the first meeting between the two parties is the most dangerous because at this time the other party is likely to set a trap.
So you must be very cautious.
At the time of agreement, after confirming that there were only two of them and there was no one else, Shi Jingli sent a signal. Andrei, who was hidden in the dark, saw the signal, so he came from behind the old repair shed. Appeared.
These two people have reason to be suspicious, because one of them is a traitor and the other is a spy.
Shi Jingli walked out of the darkness so that the other party could see him. Then he paused to make sure that the other party was alone, and then walked forward.
"Andrey, my friend, we meet again."
When they were five steps apart, they could see each other clearly, and thus confirmed that the other party was not a substitute. Play tricks.
There is always this danger when face to face, and the KGB and East German secret police did not mind setting up traps to capture a senior intelligence officer at Sea.
Or Andre's information may have been intercepted, and the situation may be that he is stepping into a trap, then spending a long dark night in the interrogation room, and finally getting a head over his head bullet.
Moscow will never be kind to anyone who betrays him.
After they met, they neither hugged nor shook hands. Some traitors need that, and need comfort from human contact.
But Colonel Andre in front of him didn't need this. He is a cold person, lonely, arrogant and confident.
As a senior KGB official, his training made it impossible for him to need emotional support like others.
And what they are going to do now is extremely dangerous.
"I have a document here, which involves some internal struggles in Moscow. Now the struggle in the Kremlin is very fierce.
This struggle is not limited to Moscow, it has spread to Europe, and even Also included. "
Looking at the file bag Andre took out. Shi Jingli asked: "So what do you want?"
"500,000 US dollars!"
No fuss, no inner feelings... I just asked for money directly.
500,000 US dollars is definitely a huge sum!
If it is replaced with gold, it is equivalent to 440 kilograms of gold.
Even Americans can't make that much money in their entire lives.
This huge sum of money is enough for an ordinary family to live a carefree life in the next few decades.
Then Colonel Andre said: "And you will provide shelter to me and my family, and provide us with a house in a safe place and bring me to you, Like you once provided asylum for those Germans. "
"It's no problem."
Shi Jingli said: "But just this document, it Will the value be that high? ”
"More valuable information is in my brain." Colonel Andre pointed to his brain and said: "I believe that when we reach a safe area, we will have Opportunity to have more conversations, and by that time you will find out what is worth the money.”
For this. Shi Jingli had no doubts. After all, the former man was the deputy stationmaster of the KGB East Germany Station. The amount of secrets he had was very high. After all, for the Soviet Union, East Germany was the center of their activities in Western Europe. All the intelligence will pass through him once.
Although I don't know how much information he has, it must be very valuable.
"That's right." In this way, the first transaction between the two was completed.
After more than ten hours, the document first appeared in the investigation department and appeared in front of Jia Wentao. Half an hour later, a car drove out of the underground parking lot of the investigation department. Soon, the car drove into the official residence.
Looking at this confidential document in the study room, after thinking for a long time, Li Yian said: "It's really a bit unexpected."
Amid his feelings, his tone was full of disdain. "It was very unexpected. I didn't expect the Kremlin to be so intense. They can even do anything for their rights." Jia Wentao said with some emotion:
< br>"I originally thought that his enemy was the enemy in our job, but I didn't expect that the biggest enemy was actually his own people."
"Yes!"
Li Yian nodded and said: "The political struggle between Brezhnev and Serepin directly determines who will be the master of the Kremlin in the future.
To ensure that they are not being Instead, Brezhnev did this really...a little conscientious."
No mistakes, one poem, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one read!
When saying "I'm so careless", Li Yian's tone was filled with anger!
The reason why I am so angry is that the information revealed in this document is angering.
In order to defeat Sherepin, snatch the KGB from him.
Brezhnev actually chose to cooperate with the British, but there was no question of cooperation. He revealed to the British information about the KGB lurking spies in the West through certain channels.
The information they revealed was not one person, not ten people, not even one country - but the entire Western world.
They betrayed the KGB intelligence network lurking in the Western world all at once.
Why do they do this?
It's for the sake of rights.
"Once the KGB is hit by a devastating blow to the intelligence network in the Western world, Moscow will definitely need to hold kgb accountable, and Semichasne, who is the person in charge, will definitely be directly responsible. Brezhnev could take away this crime openly, and then he could take the KGB into his own command.
Where is Xie Lieping? He lost the most deterrent institution in his hands. Without the KGB, he lost not only his ears and eyes, he also lost his fist..."
Analyzing the thoughts of Brezhnev and others, Li Yian felt cold in his heart. Once upon a time, He seemed to him that Brezhnev and others were just greedy and incompetent.
But I didn't expect that behind their greed and incompetent, these guys could be so shameless.
In order to win this Kremlin competition, he even sacrificed the interests of the country and ruined the intelligence network that had been lurking in the Western world for many years.
And its purpose is to overthrow Xie Lieping.
When Semichasne, who was the head of the KGB, was responsible for this matter, what about the Soviet spies arrested by Western countries?
They were buried in their own hands in a confused manner. Because the so-called political struggle was sacrificed.
"You can confirm the authenticity of this information." Li Yian asked back with some uncertainty:
The reason why he asked back such a question is because all this is too incredible. People have to doubt the authenticity of this information.
"Although we have no way to prove the authenticity of this information now. However, our contact staff in the UK have already obtained information from London before - the UK has mastered some through some channels. The Soviet intelligence personnel lurking here. They hope to take joint action with us to cut off the Soviet intelligence network."
Jia Wentao then added:
"It can be judged that the UK has already obtained the information they need, and they will close the network at the right time. Of course, the intelligence cooperation has just begun at present."
"It seems that this information has been It was confirmed."
Li Yian sighed helplessly.
"Brezhnev is going to win."
"Yes, this also means that the Kremlin's power struggle is basically coming to an end."
< br>
Although he was extremely angry at the act of sacrificing his own people because of political struggle, Jia Wentao still said: "Brezhnev will eventually become the ultimate winner of this struggle." br>"Yes, he will definitely be the ultimate winner, because he is more shameless than everyone."
Li Yian couldn't help but sigh.
"The water is clear and there is no fish, and the person is cheap and there is no victory. That guy Brezhnev is really an invincible person!"
When Li Yian made this sigh, his expression was solemn.
He finally understood why the Soviet Union lost the competition, because those people lost not only their ideals and beliefs, but also a deeper reason - in order to gain power, They can do everything they can sacrifice everything.
Even national interests can be abandoned and sacrificed in their eyes.
How could such a group of people hold the rights of the Kremlin?
Now, many things I didn't understand were finally understood.
Why was Khrushchev being messed up?
Because he touched some people's cakes, those people wanted to blow him down, and in order to achieve their goals, they took various measures.
After this, in order to become the ultimate winner of this coup, Brezhnev even sacrificed the Soviet Union's intelligence network in Western countries. This was at the cost of getting rid of Xie Lieping's ears and eyes and taking the KGB out of his hands.
With the ruthlessness of those guys, Li Yian said: "It seems that we will definitely become the winners of this crisis."
"Yes, yourselves."
Jia Wentao agreed.
"Because we are trying to win the crisis itself, and for them, the crisis is just a tool to attack the opponent."
Nodded without denying it, Li Yian said:
"Take that guy over. The information he has must be more than just this. Since he can have information in this area, then there must be more valuable in his hands. Intelligence. ”
