Struggle in Soviet Russia

Chapter 258: Kurchatov Institute

With the muzzle of a black hole on the back of his head, and through his wet hair, Victor still seemed to be able to feel the cold metal touch. Vaguely, he could even feel the muzzle trembling slightly.

Turning his head as hard as he could, he wanted to see exactly who was standing behind him, but at the moment he turned his head away, he could only see a fuzzy figure wearing a big brimmed hat with the other's face hidden in the brim of the hat. In the shadow that was hidden, it was vague and could not be seen clearly.

There was a faint sound of breaking wind in his ears, and then, a heavy fist hit his cheek, opening his firstborn student who had been turned away. Victor felt that he had been hit hard, and his mind was dizzy for a moment, but There is no pain.

When the dizziness subsided and his consciousness became clear again, he found himself sitting on the edge of a large oval table with a white tablecloth covered with a variety of delicacies. It was full, weird, and there was a birthday cake lit with candles on the side of the table near him.

There is a line of black letters on the cream of the birthday cake. I don't know why, Victor seems to want to see clearly what is written on that line.

He blinked his eyes vigorously, shook his head vigorously, and finally saw clearly what was written in the line: "Wish, Happy Death, Comrade Victor!"

At this moment, the light in front of him began to become bizarre, and in a shadowy manner, a wretched man with blond hair appeared on the seat on the right. Very arrogantly said: "It is easy to win this war. My goal is to make America great again!"

Almost at the same time, a person appeared on the left-hand seat. He was wearing a white navy uniform with a pipe in his mouth. In a majestic tone, he said with a serious expression: "Berlin is not where we stop. Our ultimate destination should be the stars and the sea."

"Victor, Victor?!"

There was a woman's almost seductive whisper in his ear, and Victor's body trembled, suddenly awakened from his dream.

I just opened my eyes, and the vision in front of me is still a little fuzzy, perhaps because of lack of sleep, my eyeballs are slightly swelling, and the corners of my eyes are still slightly sour.

Rubbing his eyes, Victor finally saw the face that seemed to be close at hand. It was Qiu Lina. She looked at herself with a smile, and her eyes seemed to have some doubts.

"Are you dreaming?" Seeing him open her eyes, Qiu Lina stretched out her hand to stroke his forehead and asked in a low voice.

"What's the matter?" Victor raised his hand and grabbed her wrist, asking somewhat puzzledly.

"You are talking in a dream, and we can't hear what you are talking about," Valentina said with a smile, "I feel you are very excited, isn't it a nightmare?"

Victor rubbed his face and gave a wry smile. He didn't say what dream it was. It wasn't a nightmare, it was just a little absurd.

"What time is it?" Victor asked casually, propping up and sitting on the head of the bed.

"It's less than seven o'clock," Valentina turned sideways, brought a glass of water prepared by the head of the bed for him, and said, "You can still sleep for a while."

Victor took the water cup, drank the water in the cup, and returned the cup to Valentina. Then he said: "No sleep, Comrade Malinkov is going to inspect the committee office today. I can't be late."

"Do you want to take a bath?" Qiu Lina asked softly.

"Well, let me get some water," Victor nodded, motioning for Valentina to pass him the cigarette on the bedside table.

Seeing Qiu Lina, who was wearing a black silk underwear, turned over and got out of bed, and walked enchantingly to the bathroom, Victor lit a cigarette, took Valentina beside him into his arms, frowning and thinking about the previous dream.

Once upon a time, Victor thought that everything in his previous life was very far away from him, and some memories had become obscured, but the fact is that after all, there are still things hidden in the deepest part of his mind. From time to time, he will give him a Sediment appeared.

"The water is ready, dear," Qiu Lina greeted as she poked out a cigarette from the bathroom.

Victor turned over and got up from the bed, handed the cigarette **** in his hand to Valentina, and went to the bathroom with his bare feet.

When he walked to the bathroom door, he bowed and hugged Qiu Lina, holding her into the bathroom amidst the woman's exclamation.

I don't know if he is making excuses for himself, anyway, Victor thinks that the reason why he is lustful is that he always likes to entangle between different women, which is not unreasonable.

The most important point is that the nature of his work determines that his work is under a lot of pressure, and to a certain extent, the Foreign Intelligence Agency is a place full of conspiracies and tricks. Almost all the work involved here is It is magnifying the dark side of human nature, so the mental pressure is also great.

People can’t live under high-intensity mental and work pressure for a long time. They always need a channel to vent their depressed emotions. Victor doesn’t want to be an executioner-like metamorphosis, nor can he indulge in secret self-excitement, so he just I chose a decompression method that most men would use.

Is this a sin? At least Victor didn't think it was. Moreover, Comrade Stalin apparently did not ask him to constrain in this respect, but only emphasized that he should not be delayed in his work.

After doing some morning exercises, and taking a happily bath, when Victor left the little yellow building, it was less than eight o'clock.

As the rainy season passed, the weather in Moscow became more sunny. It was also because of the midsummer. Although it was still early, the temperature seemed a bit high, and it was extremely hot.

Viktor told Valentina before that Malinkov is going to inspect the People’s Committee of National Security. This is half-truth. Comrade Malinkov is indeed going to inspect, but he is not going to the People’s Committee of National Security. Headquarters, but to go to the Kurchatov Institute in the Shukino District to inspect.

After confirming the research and development nuclear weapons project, in accordance with the relevant orders issued by the People’s Committee of National Defense, led by the Soviet Academy of Sciences, the Foreign Intelligence Agency, and the People’s Committee under the "Special Committee", the alliance has successively established several nuclear project-related research projects. Institutes, and the Kurchatov Institute is one of them.

This research institute was established in Victory Square in the Hukino District. In order to reflect the importance of this work and the institute, Comrade Stalin personally gave instructions to change the name of the Victory Square in the Hukino District to "Kurchato "Kurchatov Square", the Institute is No. 1 Kurchatov Square.

Of course, Comrade Malinkov's inspection of the Kurchatov Institute was not for the research and development of nuclear technology there, but to observe the first trial operation of the "ABC Computer" to see how effective this thing is. .

In the past six months or so, the London Intelligence Agency has successively submitted to Moscow six data and information related to nuclear technology research and development, including those in charge of the work of the "special committee" who had to admit that these data were obtained by spies. The data has played a huge role in promoting the research and development of alliance nuclear technology.

Including the head of the Kurchatov Institute, Igor Vasilyevich Kurchatov himself also admitted that the "electric steel furnace" factory can achieve the current results, to a large extent Rely on the precious information provided by the Foreign Intelligence Service.

The "Electric Steel Furnace" factory is a factory affiliated to the Kurchatov Institute. At present, this factory has completed the extraction of uranium oxide into pure metallic uranium, and is building a new facility named " F-1" uranium reactor.

This work is expected to be completed before the end of the year, and when this work is completed, the next step is to use poured metallic uranium to assemble the uranium graphite test reactor. For the alliance, this is definitely a breakthrough in nuclear technology research and development. Sexual progress is a milestone.

A few days ago, Comrade Boris Lvovich Vannikov, the people’s commissar in charge of the work of the People’s Committee of Ammunition and a member of the Special Committee, heard that the "ABC Computer" had arrived in Moscow and got to know. For its function, he immediately proposed to "lend" this computer to the Kurchatov Institute, because the calculation work of this Institute is also very large.

As a result, the computer, which had not had time to be assembled, was moved to the Kurchatov Institute.

When the computer was embezzled, Victor was still patrolling the Caucasus. Although he knew about it, he did not express his attitude.

Speaking of which, Comrade Vannikov is quite competent. He is also a graduate of the Bauman Technical School anyway. Among the military's technical generals, he belongs to the kind of person with real talents.

But the problem is that interlacing is like a mountain. He doesn't know that there are many kinds of calculations. The "ABC computer" is very effective for ballistic calculations, but it can't be used for other things. Even if the thing is moved to Chur Going to the Chatov Institute is not of much use.

That’s good. Today, many academicians and communication academicians will be present at the Academy of Sciences. In addition, Comrade Malinkov will also pass by. When that happens, let Comrade Vannikov teach the facts and tell him why laymen will always Can't jump out and command the insider.

Do not doubt that although the overall atmosphere of the alliance is still positive, there are really many people like Comrade Vannikov who like to command experts with laymanship. First of all, the members of the People’s Committee of National Defense. The "rotation" system is very unreliable. If it is not for his lack of qualifications, Victor really wants to send a report to Comrade Stalin and ask him to cancel this out-of-date system.
