Chapter 352 Cambridge Five

"Verify Comrade Aristov's situation, well, it's done secretly, that's it!" Serov tilted his neck to hold the phone, his eyes still on the surveillance file on the table, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Aristov was the chairman of the Supreme Soviet of the Russian Federation and the vice chairman of the Russian Federation Bureau. From a hierarchical perspective, he was second only to Brezhnev among the Soviets. The second leader of the Soviets. The reason why Aristov became the leader of the Soviet Union starts with the failure of the Malenkov group a few years ago. After the failure of the Malenkov group, Aristov, Kozlov, Forteva and others were valued by Khrushchev and entered the Central Presidium to replace Malenkov and Molotov.

Khrushchev, who was forced to ward off the palace by the Malenkov group, appointed a large number of new and old people. In that year, he promoted seven senior secretaries, namely Aristov, Brezhnev, Belyayev, Kusining, Kilitschko, Ignatov and Muhitzinov.

However, unlike Kozlov who was soon promoted to become the second secretary by Khrushchev, Aristov, Ignatov, Fortseva and Muhydinov did not remain in office, and later lost their post as a member of the Central Presidium and became a member of the post. Although Fortseva was disappointed, he did not do anything, but Aristov was obviously a little unwilling to accept it.

"It seems that in history, Aristov made a lot of efforts when Khrushchev stepped down!" Selov, who put down the phone, said to himself. This is not impossible to understand. The current Soviet Union is no different from the Stalin era. It's just that Khrushchev replaced Stalin's position. From the perspective of authority, Khrushchev is not inferior to Stalin, but he does not have the kind of existence like Stalin, so no one dares to raise an aura of opposition.

This may also be related to Khrushchev's reduction of the intensity of the struggle. In this case, some people seem to have a hint of unrealistic fantasies in their hearts. Yes, it is quite unrealistic. In fact, with Khrushchev's current authority, a coup is very difficult. Not to mention Aristov himself, even if he has more supporters of the coup, he will definitely suffer shameful failure.

"It seems that I am a little complaining about the dismissal of the senior secretary of the Secretariat and the member of the Central Presidium!" In fact, after all, it is because of the unstable butt that he is dissatisfied with Khrushchev. If Khrushchev used the Brezhnev method, there would probably be no opponents. The problem is that Khrushchev mobilized cadres too frequently.

If this question has just begun to ferment, Selov fiddled with the pen in his hand and thought for a while, and finally a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "I'll make a plan first and see how many cadres are dissatisfied with Khrushchev?"

If Khrushchev stepped down immediately, the successor would definitely not be himself, or even Serepin. There are only three people who are qualified to occupy a good position, namely Brezhnev, Kosykin and Podgorne. So let alone Aristov himself, even if there are a few more people in a coup, Serepv will kill them all, and maybe Khrushchev will promote himself.

The whole decision was not difficult to make. Now all Selov needed was to mobilize his strength to look at Aristov and see if he was just complaining or was really ready to take action. Of course, Selov hoped that it was the latter. His big knife was already hungry and he had no credit to defeat the coup. If he used the heads of these people to exchange for military achievements, he could not imagine how much gain was waiting for him.

This matter cannot be discussed with others. Neither Itwasov nor Sakhatovsky can do it. We must find someone who can trust it. "When Major General Ityangsky comes to the Special Investigation Department, it's like this!" Serov, who picked up the phone, asked the operator to call the director of the Special Investigation Department. The Special Investigation Department is also a general bureau-level unit of the KGB. Like the Operations Execution Department and the State Administration of Technology, it belongs to one of several special units. Major General Ityangsky is the Minister of the Special Investigation Department.

The professional qualities of the members of the Special Investigation Department are not inferior to those of the First General Administration’s foreign agents, and are even stronger in some aspects. The work distinction between the Special Investigation Department and the Operation Execution Department is not so clear, but the Operation Execution Department simply kills people, and the Special Investigation Department usually does not kill people when performing tasks in China. Sometimes when the Operation Execution Department is not enough, the Special Investigation Department will also go abroad to help. Sherov, who put down the phone, continues to look at the black file. The black file corresponds to ordinary files. The people inside are problematic personnel within the KGB surveillance range, criminals, pro-Western ideas, and there are still temporary unjustified cadres lists that are recommended to be used carefully. The file of the Go map was copied by Sherov in the black file. As long as someone promoted the Go map to a higher position, the file will automatically trigger.

"The first secretary attaches great importance to the cadres' ideas. Some rumors always belong to bad. Do you have any problems?" Shelov, who crossed his legs, asked, looking at Major General Ityangsky in front of him.

"As long as the chairman decides, I will let someone set the control immediately. How long will it take to observe?" Since there is no problem with the KGB chairman, there is no problem as an executor, Major General Ityangsky, who is just a part of the work. Major General Ityangsky's idea is the same as Selov kept making trouble back then but didn't care at all. Anyway, he was just executing orders, and as an executor, he should not be punished.

"Time is uncertain, this is part of the work. When I feel there is no problem, I will naturally let you retreat." Selov sighed. It was time for him to wipe others' butts, and he understood Xie Lieping's mood at that time.

"By the way, pay attention to Cuba!" Selov suddenly remembered this incident. The Special Investigation Department has some tasks to train anti-American guerrillas overseas, but the activity areas of the Special Investigation Department are very concentrated, all of which are concentrated in Latin America. Such work in other areas is not managed by the Special Investigation Department.

The reason for this is that the Special Investigation Department is more professional and is more professional in infiltration operations than the First General Administration. The United States in Latin America is too strong, and the KGB mainly makes trouble. I hope it will not make the First General Administration invest too much, so I handed it over to the Special Investigation Department.

After Major General Yityansky left, it took less than a long time to come Servanov came in and handed over a piece of waste paper. The corner of Servanov twitched hard, let Servanov go out, opened the drawer around him, and put a high-resolution magnifying glass on his eyes.

"What kind of technology is this? It is worthy of being an old imperialism. My Hubble is a little confused!" While muttering, adjusting the multiple. After a while, Selov remembered the text above and then ignited it.

The person who corresponded with Selov, Anthony Brandt, one of the famous Cambridge Five Heroes. When the two of them had their first letter exchange, Selov was ready to step down as the director of the Foreign Intelligence Department and accidentally found clues about the Cambridge Five Heroes. Then Selov established contact with the remaining people of the Five Heroes, and at the same time cut off the contact between the other KGB and the Cambridge Five Heroes, and transferred many people who were in contact with them in order to protect them.

The KGB's plan to train spies was really clever. They chose to turn their attention to Cambridge, where young talents gathered in the 1930s, but they did not openly staff and working-class children, because these people were prone to government suspicion and had no hope to enter the core systems of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and intelligence departments, which have always been controlled by the middle and upper class children. They were also very patient, and cultivated new people like brewing wine, willing to spend ten or even decades waiting for the new wine to become aged wine. The later plot is now well known: after graduation from Cambridge, four people either entered the BBC, or entered the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the MI5 and MI5, continuously providing intelligence to Stalin and the Soviet leaders afterwards, which directly affected the progress of World War II, the Cold War strategy and the atomic bomb plan, until Burgess and McLean were exposed to fleeing to the Soviet Union in the 5th year.

Brandt had a prominent background. His mother was the sister of Count Strathmore. In other words, Brandt was the fourth great-grandson of the British Royal Royal. Brandt visited the Soviet Union as a member of the student delegation of Cambridge University and visited Moscow and Leningrad. The development of the Soviet Union shocked his thoughts. After Brandt returned to the UK, he wrote articles for the media, sang and praised the Soviet Union's socialist construction, and wrote an exploratory article "The Art of Socialism and Capitalism", which was valued by the art community. He served as director and professor at an art institute. He not only enjoyed the world, but also wrote works.

In recent years, the KGB has basically not actively contacted Cambridge Five Masters in order to protect them, but this time Selov had to contact Anthony Brandt, one of the five masters, to help Elizabeth Taylor. Anthony Brandt is a serious royal relative with a title. The most important thing is that he has great prestige in the British art circle, which is incomparable to other spies developed by the Soviet Union. This is very helpful for the plan to cut off Hollywood.

"Dear Anthony, your friend needs your help now. As we all know, the cultural hegemony in the United States is very stable, so our attack direction must be from the film and television industry. In order not to be demonized, we have taken certain actions!" Serov picked up a pen and brushed the pen on the letter, vaguely introducing the purpose of some actions. Finally, he asked Anthony Brant for help in a sincere tone.

For those of the Five Cambridge Masters, it is useless to talk about money. They are all real people. I hope the Soviet Union will successfully develop a lifestyle that overcomes the current problems. So it is better to talk more about ideology and international emotions. Remuneration will make them dissatisfied.
