Struggle in Soviet Russia

When Roosevelt was president of the United States, various intelligence agencies in the United States were good at wrangling each other, attacking each other, and even passing the buck to each other. However, in the United States at this time, there were still many intelligence agencies, such as the Office of Naval Intelligence, the Office of Army Intelligence, etc. The Office of Military Intelligence, the Office of Strategic Intelligence, the intelligence agencies under the jurisdiction of the Senate, the intelligence agencies under the management of the House of Representatives, and so on.

There is a saying that "many people are more powerful", but this sentence does not apply at all times. Just like the intelligence work of the Americans, although there are many people in this field and there are many different departments, but The real intelligence work is done in a mess, which is also the most fundamental reason why Victor's foreign intelligence agency was so easy to infiltrate the United States.

After Roosevelt became the president of the United States, he was very dissatisfied with the intelligence work of the United States. However, because he wanted to implement the New Deal, he needed to integrate political forces from all sides. Therefore, he had neither the ability nor the energy to be complex to the United States. Not only that, but also whether he has to mediate conflicts and disputes between various intelligence agencies.

Finally, it was not until after Japan attacked Pearl Harbor that Roosevelt, on behalf of the U.S. government, officially declared war on Japan, that he made up his mind and formed an Intelligence Coordination Bureau headed by Donovan. This Intelligence Coordination Bureau is mainly responsible for the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Its main task is to analyze the intelligence submitted by various intelligence agencies, and then submit the results to the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

It is interesting to say that the Intelligence Coordination Bureau made mistakes on many issues when it was first established, especially before the outbreak of the Midway Naval Battle. After analyzing a series of intelligence, the Intelligence Coordination Bureau came to the conclusion. The conclusion is completely different from the conclusion drawn by the "Magic" team of the Office of Naval Intelligence. The "Magic" team believes that the Japanese attack target is Midway, while the Intelligence Coordination Bureau agrees with the opinion of the Naval Intelligence Service and believes that the Japanese attack target is Aliu Shen Islands.

Fortunately, Nimitz finally sided with his subordinates and gave the "Magic" team more trust, otherwise, the current Pacific War might be another situation.

Because of this, Donovan's reputation in the U.S. intelligence community is not very outstanding, and after Truman served as interim president, his trust in the Intelligence Coordination Bureau was far less than that of Roosevelt.

This time, the intelligence provided by the Washington intelligence station is that Truman has proposed a new governance plan. He is preparing to dissolve the Intelligence Coordination Bureau, which has been established for less than five years. This is also one of his plans to "slim down" the US government.

Victor knew that this Intelligence Coordination Bureau was actually the predecessor of the CIA. Although Donovan was not satisfactory in terms of intelligence sensitivity, his organizational skills were still very strong.

At the beginning, at the beginning of the establishment of the US Intelligence and Coordination Office, all the funds were added together, which was less than half a million dollars, and there was no decent office location. As for the intelligence agencies under it, it was completely absent. , is to collect the intelligence of various agencies, and then analyze and summarize, to put it bluntly, it is to do some intelligence processing work.

After less than five years of development, the Intelligence Coordination Bureau is now a very large organization. They have achieved many achievements in the front line of intelligence against Germany, and at the same time, they have also achieved sufficient results in the work of intelligence against the Soviet Union.

Previously, the information obtained by the Foreign Intelligence Service was related to the surveillance of encrypted communications of the People's Committee for Foreign Affairs by the British and American intelligence services. of a department.

As the new interim president of the United States, Truman had a very obvious disapproval of many policies during Roosevelt's administration. Of course, his disapproval did not represent his personal position, but was entirely based on political considerations.

As a U.S. president who has been re-elected for four terms, what Roosevelt has gained in the United States is not only the support of the people, but also many people in the United States who oppose him, but as a wartime president, Roosevelt's domestic support in the United States Personal prestige is too high, he is enough to suppress those who oppose him.

However, after Roosevelt's sudden death, Truman, as vice president, acted as interim president. He did not have the personal prestige of Roosevelt, and he could not suppress the voices against him in the United States. Therefore, he had to take Roosevelt's old position, Make certain changes so as to gain more recognition and support on the premise of maintaining the political fundamentals.

According to previous intelligence, at present, among the so-called "New Deal" implemented by Truman, the top priority is to streamline institutions. A large number of wartime institutions established during the Roosevelt period were all included in his abolition plan. Among them, it also includes the Intelligence Coordination Bureau, which has important roles and responsibilities, and has been operating more and more well and more effectively in recent years.

In Victor's view, Truman's abolition of the Intelligence Coordination Bureau has both benefits and certain impacts on the intelligence work of the Alliance.

The benefits are naturally different. The Americans cut off their siblings, which is equivalent to giving the alliance intelligence agencies more opportunities. As for the impact, it was the "anti-encryption communication interception" that was jointly implemented with Victor and the People's Committee of Foreign Affairs. " about the plan.

According to the results of the negotiation between Viktor and Molotov, the People's Committee for Foreign Affairs did not modify the compilation method of the one-time pad, but set up another communication system in the encrypted communication within the committee. In the past few months, the People's Committee for Foreign Affairs has used the original encrypted communication system to send a series of intelligence reports, both true and false, to British and American intelligence agencies, the purpose of which is to confuse the public.

It was also during this process that a group of Americans and British were disguised as spies of the Alliance in a part of the communications issued by the People's Committee for Foreign Affairs, including Oppenheimer, the chief executive of the "Manhattan Project" in the United States. It also includes Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Marshall.

Victor has reason to believe that if the deciphering work of the Intelligence Coordination Bureau continues, sooner or later, they will add people such as Oppenheimer and Marshall to the suspected list of Soviet spies, and people like this, the Union The People's Committee of Foreign Affairs has prepared more than 200 for them, enough for them to investigate for several years.

Therefore, if the Intelligence Coordination Bureau is disbanded at this time, the alliance's plan is estimated to be delayed.

Of course, from another point of view, if Truman disbanded the intelligence agency, then one day in the future, once those encrypted communications are deciphered, maybe even Truman will be implicated in this "shattering" spy Going into the case, when the time comes, the trouble it brings to the Americans may be even more serious.

After reading the information from beginning to end, Victor gave instructions at the end of the document. Unlike the previous information, the instructions he gave were to pay close attention to this information. Comrade Stalin will not know about the contents of the information, but the Washington Intelligence Station will continue to pay attention to the follow-up situation.

After processing the two pieces of information, Victor raised his hand and wiped it on his face. The warm sunlight shone on him, making him always feel lazy and somewhat sleepy. However, this feeling is very comfortable, so he does not plan to go back to his room.

He took out another cigarette from the cigarette case, instead of lighting it directly, he put the cigarette horizontally under his nose, sniffed hard, and woke up. Only then did Victor take the last document and open it to read.

The last document was also submitted by the Washington intelligence station, and the content involved was about a funding plan just passed by the US Senate and House of Representatives.

The recipient of this grant program is the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and the mission it uses the grant to perform is a program called Operation Cloudy.

This plan was submitted to the Budget Committee before President Roosevelt's death, but the Budget Committee never came up with a specific plan, let alone discussed it in both chambers.

In this funding plan, a list is involved, and all the experts listed in the list are German experts in various fields.

According to the information obtained by the Washington intelligence station, the number of German experts involved in this list is as many as 1,600, of which more than 120 are experts in rocket technology. There are fields such as electronics, materials science, and so on. And this grant is used to transfer these people to the United States and settle them in.

Victor had long been mentally prepared for the fact that the Americans were going to rob German experts. The historical facts of his previous life told him that the Americans would do it sooner or later. In the Alliance, he also told Comrade Stalin and his colleagues a long time ago. The People's Commissariat of Defense has submitted relevant reports, and the alliance has been implementing relevant action plans for a long time. Therefore, the Americans have fallen behind the alliance in this matter.

Therefore, the value of this intelligence to the Alliance is the list made by the Americans. The Alliance can take the lead in robbing the experts they are looking for, even if some of them are worthless to the Alliance.

It is said that people cannot do things that are harmful to others and themselves, but for intelligence personnel, this rule does not apply. As long as it can harm the interests of the enemy, no matter whether it is beneficial to oneself or not, try as much as possible. Try, this is the attitude of intelligence officers.
