Chapter 792 Agent
Beria was stunned by these words for a long time, and after a while he was moved: "Good idea, Comrade Shulka! In this way, we can benefit from the British, and at the same time limit the development of German equipment as much as possible! "
In fact, the benefits are secondary, and more importantly, the German V1 missiles are in a state that is not smooth and will not be destroyed by the British, that is, in an intermediate state, and in this intermediate state, the British and the Germans will still fight openly and secretly. It is in the best interest of the Soviet Union to consume each other.
After thinking for a while, Beria said, "Then, Comrade Shulka, you will be responsible for this matter, what do you think?"
"I'm in charge?" Shulka was a little surprised.
"Yes!" Beria said, "This matter can't be known by too many people, and I don't feel relieved to hand it over to others! Besides, you can speak English, don't you?"
"Yes, Comrade Beria!" Shulka was startled, which meant that Beria had investigated him.
But this doesn't seem to be surprising. Shulka has made meritorious service in English several times. It would be strange if Beria didn't know.
"But Comrade Beria!" After thinking for a while, Shulka asked suspiciously: "How should I complete the task? Go to England?"
"No, of course you don't need to go to England!" Beria got up and replied, "Akadyevich is your assistant, you can contact me through him if you need anything!"
There is really no need to go to the UK for this matter, because it is actually just negotiating conditions with the UK and exchanging information, which can be done through telegrams and each other's embassies.
As for Beria, he actually had a faster passage. In less than two hours, an Englishman dressed as a civilian appeared in front of Shulka and Akadyevich.
The Englishman was hardly even recognizable as an Englishman, wearing dirty overalls, a peaked cap, and a Soviet beard.
He and Akadievich seemed to be very familiar, as soon as they met, they shook hands with Akadievich enthusiastically: "Are you all right? Comrade Akadievich!"
"Of course!" Akadyevich replied, and then introduced to Shulka: "This is the person in charge of MI5's intelligence point in Moscow. We usually call him John!"
Shuerka couldn't help being taken aback when he heard the words. He didn't expect that the extremely ordinary person in front of him would be the head of MI5 in Moscow.
But it’s not surprising when you think about it, because the kind of agents and spies who wear a suit and tie and sometimes wear a pair of cool sunglasses actually only exist in movies. In reality, agents and spies are not only not so high-profile, On the contrary, they will do everything possible to "weaken" themselves.
In addition, in the first round of agent selection, handsome men, beauties, or people who are too tall or too short will be brushed out... These people are absolutely, absolutely not suitable to be agents, because they stand in the crowd at a glance. will be recognized.
The John in front of me belongs to the kind of person who can’t be recognized in the crowd. It can even be said that even if Shulka has seen him now and remembers it carefully, he may not be able to recognize him next time on the street because he is too popular. Yes, just a little change could be another person.
John did recognize Shulka.
"This must be Comrade Shulka, the 'breakout hero'!" John said in fluent Russian while shaking hands with Shulka: "It's nice to meet you. But I'm still a little surprised, you should be on the battlefield, right? "
"Forget it, John!" Akadyevich said, "Your surprise should be why you were arranged to meet with the 'Breakout Hero', isn't it?"
"That's right!" John nodded.
Shuerka did not speak, and directly handed over a list, saying: "Comrade John, I want you to take a look at this first!"
John took the list and looked at it, then read a few words in a low voice: "Open the Caucasus first-line transportation channel and return all American relief supplies, 1,000 cars, tanks..."
After reading this, John couldn’t read any more. He raised the list in confusion and asked, “What is this?”
"This is an agreement that the British political commissar needs to reach with us!" Shulka replied.
John froze for a moment, then laughed: "No, Comrade Shulka, I think you made a mistake, I am from MI5, you should talk to our embassy in Moscow or MI6, if If you need, I can help you contact them..."
"I'm not mistaken!" Shulka interrupted John.
The difference between MI5 and MI6 is that the former is responsible for domestic affairs and the latter is responsible for foreign affairs.
But in fact, most intelligence units don’t divide them into domestic and foreign, because they are creating troubles for themselves... The target has to be handed over to another department when it goes from domestic to foreign, and it has to be handed back when it goes from abroad to domestic.
So the real difference between them is that the former is mainly responsible for defense, that is, counter-espionage and anti-osmosis, that is, the work of protecting national security, while the latter tends to be more offensive, that is, actively carrying out espionage, infiltration, and espionage work against other countries.
The matter Shulka wanted to talk about was related to the security of the British mainland, so he was looking for MI5.
"Okay!" John spread his hands and replied, "What can I do for you? Send this list to the British government? No problem!"
"You're right!" said Shulka, "Send it to the British government and tell them they better sign an agreement with our embassy in London, otherwise..."
"Otherwise?" Although John was still puzzled, he was already a little dignified, because he realized that Shulka and others were not joking.
"Otherwise we will remain silent!" Shulka replied.
John looked at Shulka, then at Akadyevich.
Akadyevich shrugged helplessly, and said: "I can't help you, John! This matter is too important, you'd better do what Comrade Shulka said, otherwise... I guarantee you will regret it !"
John thought for a while, and then said: "I must at least know what it is, Comrade Shulka!"
"If you know what it is, it will lose its value!" Shulka replied: "I can only tell you that we have a piece of information, which is related to the safety of Britain, Britain!"
"U.K?"
"Yes, England!"
"This is impossible!" John laughed: "Nothing can threaten the British mainland anymore!"
"If you think so, then we don't need to talk anymore!" Shulka said: "We can wait for that day!"
John's face changed, and then he said: "I protest, Comrade Shulka! As an ally, we should share intelligence instead of negotiating conditions like we are doing now!"
