"Haha..." After listening to Lin Wei's words, Alexei burst out laughing. It took a long time before Alexei stopped and said, "Mr. Lampard, I thought that as the leader of the SS, you could count the Gestapo under you." The best among agents, I never expected that he would interrogate a prisoner so stupidly."
It's a pity that Lin Wei didn't react at all to Alexei's ridicule. After seeing Lin Wei didn't answer for a long time, Alexey stopped laughing because he felt bored. Time passed little by little, and the two sat opposite each other like this. The room was dark and cold, but both of them were sweating.
"Mr. Alexei, judging by your age, you should already have a child. I have seen my child for a long time. I wonder if it has grown taller." Lin Wei didn't know whether it was to himself or to Aleksey. Kesai spoke.
"What do you want to say?" Alexei asked with a sneer.
"I don't want to say anything," Lin Wei said helplessly with his hands spread out, "I just haven't seen my child for a long time, so I just want to express my feelings."
Huh... Seeing Lin Wei teasing him, Alexey closed his eyes and stopped talking. Schneider in the next room heard this interrogation and almost banged his head against the wall. God knows what his leader was thinking.
"Actually, why are you defending this person in charge so much? Maybe he is now asking how to get rid of you to ensure his own safety. Is it really worth it?" Lin Wei said sincerely.
Seeing Lin Wei struggling to speak, Alexei smiled and said, "It's useless, Mr. Lampard, I won't tell you who he is. My family is still alive if he is alive. If I tell, maybe I will survive, but my family will definitely be implicated. I think you also know the current environment in the Soviet Union. I really don’t dare to make fun of my family’s lives.”
"Yes, the current environment in your country is indeed very bad. According to what you said, your family will be in trouble." Lin Wei had an inexplicable smile on his face, which made Alexei feel nervous.
Before Alexei could figure it out, Lin Wei said, "If I put you back and then let out the news that you have defected to our Germany, what do you think will happen to you? Huh?" Before Alexey could reply, Lin Wei himself replied, "You will be immediately isolated, and then tortured to force you to confess to the crime you committed. If you are lucky, you will be shot on charges of being a spy, and the best outcome for your family is I’m going to remote Siberia to undergo labor reform. I don’t know if what I said is right.” As Lin Wei spoke, Alexey’s face became paler and paler.
"No, no...impossible, we have experienced agents and will not be fooled by you," Alexei yelled desperately.
"Oh? Really?" Lin Wei understood that he had grasped Alexei's weakness at this time. As long as he had a weakness, everything would be easier, so Lin Wei grasped this painful spot and crushed Alexei again. Kesai's hope, "If you lie again, you also know that what you just said is to comfort yourself. What are your experienced counterintelligence personnel doing? Haha... They are in the middle of a purge and have no time to care about you. So no matter you are so In defense, you are all our German spies, and your final outcome is to be shot, and this cannot be changed."
At this time, Alexei no longer had the stern expression he had at the beginning. Instead, his face was pale and spiritless, and his whole person seemed to collapse all of a sudden.
Lin Wei picked up a stack of information and said, "Look at the masterpieces of your experienced counterintelligence personnel. You must have heard of these things, so I will let you recall them."
On the evening of December 1, 1934, in the corridor of the Smolny Palace, the seat of the Leningrad Oblast Committee, Kirov, member of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (Bolsheviks) and Secretary of the Leningrad Oblast Committee, was arrested by a man who had sneaked into the palace. The murderer Ergulayev shot and killed him.
On the evening of December 1, 1934, based on Stalin's suggestion, the Central Executive Committee and the Council of People's Commissars of the Soviet Union passed the "Resolution on Amending the Current Criminal Procedure Codes of the Union Republics", which stipulated that: Anyone who belongs to a terrorist organization and conducts terrorist activities against personnel of the Soviet regime For a case, the investigation work cannot exceed ten days; the conclusion of the accusation is handed over to the defendant one day and night before the official trial; neither the plaintiff nor the defendant participates in the trial; appeals from the judgment and petitions for pardon are not accepted; and the capital punishment sentence is executed immediately after it is announced.
On December 22, 1934, the Soviet government issued a report on the investigation of the Kirov case, mentioning for the first time a terrorist organization called "Leningrad Headquarters" and saying that Nikolayev was a member of this organization. Mainly composed of former Zinoviev-Kamenev opposition members.
On January 15, 1935, the main members of the "Headquarters" were tried. Zinoviev and others firmly denied that they had any involvement in the Kirov case. Although no evidence could be produced, the court still sentenced Zinoviev to ten years of imprisonment. years in prison and Kamenev five years in prison. On January 18, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (Bolsheviks) issued a secret letter to party organizations across the country, requiring all localities to mobilize all forces to dig deep into the enemy. This initiated mass arrests across the country and created countless unjust cases.
In August 1936, the military court of the Supreme Court of the Soviet Union held its first public trial. The defendants were Zinoviev, Kamenev, and Smir, members of the so-called "Trotsky-Zinoviev Joint Headquarters" Nov and 16 others. During the trial, the court did not present any evidence, and all charges were based on the defendant's "account" and "admission." In the absence of a lawyer's defense, the defendant's "confession" was used as the basis for conviction. The court finally announced that Zinoviev and others had colluded with Trotsky, who had been deported, and masterminded the murder of Kirov, and sentenced 16 defendants to death. Less than 24 hours after the verdict, newspapers reported that the death penalty had been carried out.
Following Lin Wei's voice, Alexey's heart seemed to fall into hell. He no longer had the desire to resist. Years of training had no effect at this time. At this time, he just wanted to block his ears. Stop Lin Wei's voice from coming in.
Just when Alexei was immersed in fear and unable to extricate himself, Lin Wei's voice sounded again, "Who is your general person in charge?"
"It's General Grishin," Alexey, whose mind was blank, replied in a mumble. Although Alexei reacted quickly, it was already too late. Alexei smiled bitterly and said, "Mr. Lampard, you win. I take back what I said. You are a real interrogation expert. I can't lose." Take it heartily."
"Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Alexei, but General Grishin should be a pseudonym. What is his real name?" Lin Wei asked calmly.
When the matter reached this point, Alexei had nothing to say, so he replied in a straight-forward manner, "His real name is Berzin. He is the first general military adviser sent to Spain by the Soviet Union, but he is not a national security advisor." General Administration, but personnel of the General Staff Intelligence Bureau.”
"Berzin?" Lin Wei didn't know this person, but it didn't matter. Schneider rushed over from the next room immediately. He always appeared at the right time. Lin Wei seemed to have understood why Heydrich valued this so much. People.
If this person really participated in military cooperation with Germany as rumored, then there is no reason why the Gestapo should not know about this person. The facts did not disappoint Lin Wei, "General Bolchin, an old Bolshevik, was sentenced to death twice before the revolution and escaped from prison twice. During the civil war, he commanded a regiment, and the commanders and fighters were all Latvians and Estonians." This The regiment was responsible for guarding Lenin and the central government. At that time, the Bolshevik leadership did adhere to internationalism, otherwise it would never be possible to hand over the central guard to foreigners. At the same time, the Communist International also had its own eyes and ears in various countries. Various national ministries collected information from various A kind of political and economic intelligence. Mainly because the Soviet Union had no diplomatic relations with other countries for a long time. Everyone knows that intelligence is generally collected through diplomatic channels. Therefore, in the Soviet Union's situation, it had to set up local institutions to make up for this shortcoming.
The third component of Soviet intelligence was the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The Ministry of the Interior was responsible for domestic security, so it had to identify foreign spies in the Soviet Union. Over time, the powers of the Ministry of the Interior have expanded. Security work abroad was also entrusted to it. Then he was responsible for monitoring Belarusian conspiracy activities in various countries. Finally, the Ministry of the Interior manages both domestic and foreign affairs, competes with military intelligence, and sends spies to infiltrate military intelligence systems. "
After a pause, Schneider said, "The Soviet Union and Germany do have military cooperation. This Berzin once came to Berlin and stayed in Berlin for a long time. As you know, leader, because of the Poles." There is no need to keep this matter secret under today's circumstances. As a senior agent, it is impossible for Alexey to not know about the cooperation between the Soviet Union and Germany.
Lin Wei had a clear expression on his face. I am afraid there is no one in Germany who does not hate the Poles. In his previous life, Lin Wei might have sympathized with Poland, a country that has been divided several times in history. But now Lin Wei understands as a person involved After the actual situation, and thinking about Poland's future fate, the only explanation is deservedness.
Originally, Germany and the Russian Empire, the predecessor of the Soviet Union, fought fiercely in World War I. Under normal circumstances, the two countries would not have made a private agreement to carve up Poland in World War II. This was mainly because the new country Poland emerged from the ruins of Tsarist Russia and the German Empire, which changed the nature of the contradiction between Soviet Russia and Germany. Marshal Pilsudski, a fanatical Polish nationalist, relied on the help of the Allied Powers to not only transfer the German land of Lycia to Poland, but also cut off the connection between East Prussia and the German mainland in one fell swoop. He also participated in the armed intervention in the Soviet Union in 1920, and severely damaged the Red Army under the walls of Warsaw, forcing the Soviet Union to cede Western Belarus and Western Ukraine. It was in the position of dealing with the common enemies, the Soviet Union and Germany, two countries that could not be fought with each other. Finally, they came to the end of the war. Together.
Of course, Lin Wei knew about the military cooperation with the Soviet Union. As early as the end of 1922, his family Krupp cooperated with the Communist Party to establish a management agency with offices in Bonn and Moscow to mobilize German companies to transfer banned weapons production lines. to the Soviet Union. Soon, Krupp Company was manufacturing cannons and armored vehicles in Tula, Junkers Company opened its doors in the suburbs of Moscow to manufacture aircraft engines, and Farben Chemical Company manufactured military gas and poison gas in Samara Province. It can be said that almost all German military industrial enterprises were included in that plan.
What's even more surprising is that I actually heard that Goering attended a training base in the 1920s, was sent to the Soviet Union as an instructor, and seemed to have an affair with a Soviet girl.
