Chapter 1128 The Tsar Also Has a Son

Fortseva was still surprised by Semichasny's visit, but immediately the Cultural Tsar enthusiastically let in one of the most powerful people in the current Soviet Union and asked about the purpose of his visit.

The KGB has a special nature and has many internal departments. It is not only the intelligence department, but also responsible for the military, transportation, defense industry, scientific research and technology, communication facilities, and even the protection of the Kremlin, as well as hundreds of thousands of border guards.

For other members of the Central Committee at the same level, Semichasny was almost aloof.

Not to mention that behind Semichasny there are also Shelepin, as well as the first secretary of the Moscow Municipal Party Committee Yegorychev, the second secretary of Lithuania Harazov, the Minister of Petroleum Industry Tikunov, the president of the TASS News Agency Meshatsev, Azerbaijan First Secretary Kochemasov, Chairman of Soviet Radio Goryunov, First Secretary of the Leningrad Municipal Party Committee Tolskykov and a series of powerful friends.

These powerful factions promoted by Xie Leping formed a powerful group with him as the center.

"Comrade Fortseva, this visit may be a bit sudden." Semichasny's attitude was mild. He was not afraid of some unfounded rumors about the Cultural Czar, but respected the positions of the Presidium of the Soviet Central Committee and Secretary of the Central Committee.

"Look at what you said, what are you talking about..." Fortseva asked very gently, "We are all comrades. If you have any questions, just ask them directly. In fact, I have heard some of them."

After all, it was her son who did it, and it was impossible for Fortseva to say that she was unaware of it, "Did Alyosha get into trouble?"

"On the contrary, he has made a huge contribution." Semichasny shook his head and said, "I believe that he will become a very outstanding counter-revolutionary worker in the future. Maybe after a while, Lubyanka will also serve him Award medals."

"Then I didn't think about it. He has just started working and is still so young. Just ensure his own safety. In fact, I have always been opposed to him entering the security department, but he is interested in this aspect. As the Minister of Education, I can’t even educate my own son.”

Although it was many years ago when she became the Minister of Education, Fortseva still feels quite emotional when she thinks about it.

Part of Fortseva's words meant concerns about the nature of the KGB's work, which Semichasny fully understood, but he disagreed with the other part about age, and directly expressed his dissent, "Age" The problem is not a big problem in our country, and many young cadres are making contributions to the country. When I was 24 years old, I was already the first secretary of the state committee in Ukraine."

Ukraine is the most important republic of the Soviet Union, serving as both an agricultural and industrial base. Its importance in the Soviet Union is second only to Russia, and even exceeds it in some aspects.

Ukraine is the largest republic in the Soviet Union except Russia, which itself has no party organization. While Soviet leaders were wary of local expansion, they generally did not forget to keep an eye on Russia.

Because of Khrushchev's relationship, Ukraine formed a huge political group, of which Podgorny and Brezhnev were both important members.

Semichasny's resume is glorious, and he later became the second secretary of the Republic of Azerbaijan. Because Azerbaijan is located on the border, he personally carried out a lot of work against Iran.

At the age of thirty-six, Semichasny became the chairman of the KGB and the head of the most powerful department in the Soviet Union. Along the way, his pace was unparalleled and even better than Shelepin.

For someone as young as Semichasny who holds a high position of power, Fortseva said that the age issue was obviously inappropriate.

However, the cultural tsar was talking about his own son. It was not easy for Semichasny to argue about this issue, but he was still optimistic about this kid who had solved major crimes when he first joined the KGB and had a good foundation, and expected him to shine.

Fortseva can be said to be a smooth-sailing cadre, but she still has a lot more administrative experience than Semichasny. Faced with Semichasny's questions, Furtseva's answers were flawless.

That man once asked him to follow Brezhnev closely. Furtseva did not dare to deviate from the track in this work, and he could see that Brezhnev was actually not interested in people like Shelepin.

Brezhnev believed that most of Shelepin's group were cadres with high ambitions and low ambitions, and there was nothing to worry about.

What a coincidence. Shelepin's friends thought so too. Yegorychev, who succeeded Fortseva as the first secretary of the Moscow Municipal Party Committee, believed that most of the people who followed Brezhnev were just waiting to die. are in a vegetative state, and both parties have average evaluations of each other.

Semichasny came in person and expressed his optimism for Fortseva's son, which would make Alexeev's future road many times smoother. Fortseva still knew this, and he didn't If you neglect the KGB chairman who comes to visit you, you will not treat him coldly just because he has not entered the central presidium.

If it were an ordinary Central Committee member, even if Fortseva did not have the original intention of crushing people to death at the official level, the other party would not come as directly as Semichasny did.

Soon Semichasny left. In any case, Fortseva's son caught such a big spy. This contribution is immeasurable. He should have visited the mountain in person. Now he must continue to pay attention to Pinkovs. progress of the case.

People who defect to the enemy because of disillusionment—or the trauma of ideological disorientation—may develop slowly, sometimes over many years. Such intelligence agents serving their country no longer trust their own government.

He feels he has been harmed by the system he works for and resents his bosses who ruined his career. This is the case with Pinkovsky. Most of the traitors who appeared in the Soviet Union were often not lured by money and threats, but because the country failed to meet their expectations and began to serve the United States without asking for anything in return.

Such spies are often very rare, but every time one appears, the damage caused is extremely huge.

Semichasny couldn't understand how hard Pinkovsky was thinking about it. He had to live a good life and become a British and American spy. This was something he couldn't understand.

As a GRU colonel, even if he knew everything about the Soviet espionage activities in the West, he should not know much about it. However, he almost knew that the most sophisticated core materials of the Soviet Union were originals, not copies. It can be seen that Pinkovsky put in so much effort.

But one thing is certain. The case of Pinkovsky’s treason has been finalized, and awards and handling must be carried out simultaneously. Under the personal attention of First Secretary Khrushchev, Pinkovsky’s noble man in life, Deputy Chief of General Staff Valensov, who was directly responsible for the case, was stripped of the rank of marshal, Serov was stripped of his position as director of the General Investigation Bureau of the Soviet General Staff, and General Psovny was ordered to retire directly.

The Pinkovsky treason case caused a huge earthquake among the military and intelligence services.

After the punishment is completed, the commendation order will also be issued. As the department that caught the traitor, the KGB should receive the commendation as a matter of course. In particular, the head of the Domestic Defense Intelligence Service, Lieutenant General Serdyuko, was awarded the medal.

The person who awarded the honor for this treason case is the current Chairman of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet, Leonid Ilyich Brezhnev. If Alan Wilson were here, he would not hesitate to believe that Brezhnev Nev wished he could confer a medal on himself.

Serdyuko was very excited to receive such a great achievement. Naturally, he felt refreshed. After returning to the headquarters of the Domestic Defense Intelligence Service, he immediately picked up the phone and called Alexeyev over.

The director of the General Administration accepted the award, so naturally he would not take all the credit. Moreover, since he was the son of the Cultural Czar, he would not and was not able to take the credit as his own, and he would be happy to commend this worthy of the credit.

"You have such work ability just after graduation. Both I and Lubyanka are very much looking forward to your future." While praising you, Lieutenant General Serdyuko took out a bottle of vodka and asked, "You are already a man. , you should be able to drink, right?"

"Of course, no problem, Director!" Alexeyev's eyebrows moved and his expression became solemn.

Lieutenant General Serdyuko took out a cup, filled it with vodka, then placed the awarded Order of the Red Flag in the cup and handed it to the other party, "Should you drink it first, or read the award book first?"

Alexeyev shook the Order of the Red Banner in the wine glass, then took it out to wear, drank the vodka in one gulp, and then opened the bottle.

This is an unwritten rule for accepting the Order of the Red Banner. It originated from Marshal Galen, the first recipient of the Order of the Red Banner. When he was awarded the medal, he accidentally dropped the Order of the Red Banner into a wine glass. After taking out the medal, he poured vodka into the glass. He drank it all, but he didn't expect that this accident would become a rule. Anyone who received the Order of the Red Banner would soak the medal in a glass filled with vodka, and then drink the wine in one gulp.

Alexeyev was very excited at this time, and his face turned red because of the vodka. Obviously, for his age, the significance of national honor is extraordinary.

This is not as good as Alan Wilson. Although he is an Englishman and the spokesperson of imperialism, he even has a Victory Medal, which he purchased from the last king of Romania, Michael I. There are many in the world. From this point of view, He was an equal to Zhukov.

Lieutenant General Serdyuko directly handed the certificate to Alexeyev and said, "I am proud of having an outstanding student like you at the Dzerzhinsky Higher Military Academy."

Also issued was a certificate of commission, conferring the rank of captain to a newly graduated member. If not for Alexeyev's age, it could have been higher.

In the past few days, Fortseva has been walking with wind, and everyone is smiling. The sound of her high heels makes everyone in the Kremlin know that the cultural tsar is in a good mood lately.

Kozlov and others also knew that Fortseva's good mood came from her son's meritorious service. Everyone was also very tolerant towards her, the only female member of the Central Presidium. Some words of praise made Fortseva even more. The baby is glowing.
