"Chairman Kryuchkov, you should look at this, a telegram from the East German branch to Lubyanka. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

"And things were a little bit bad, and we didn't expect them."

The assistant hurriedly pushed open the door, and before Kryuchkov, who was sitting in a chair, could react, she put the information in front of him, "KGB agents detected an assassination plot against Krenz, and it was on the day of his speech. The assassination was carried out by a group of extremist Islan refugee groups, oh yes, and possibly with the involvement of other intelligence services. ”

"Huh?"

Kryuchkov quickly finished the not very long document and frowned, if there was any misfortune for Krenz, General Secretary Yanayev would be the first to screw off his head.

Krenz was the key to Yanayev's establishment of the Franco-German-Soviet Triple Alliance, and in this alone, Kryuchkov must not allow the other side to make the slightest mistake. Just the slightest mistake can ruin the whole plan.

"Did you find out if it was the CIA, or MI6, or some other intelligence agency? What are we doing about it? Kryuchkov asked, because the only people he could think of were the most likely assassins.

"Not yet, intelligence feedback only suspects that they are behind organized and premeditated."

Kryuchkov closed the book very dissatisfied, and his expression was as cold as a knife, cutting through the emotions of the assistants present. He was more afraid of the KGB leaders in front of him than of terrorist attacks.

"Then tell the East German branch to find out what is going on with me now, I don't want to make any mistakes at this critical moment. If the organization behind it can't be found, it will be their turn after Krenz's death. ”

The assistant retreated stupidly, dodging Kryuchkov's storm. However, the KGB's branch in Germany may not have had so much luck......

Kryuchkov sat at the table, and he thought for a long time that he should still give Yanayev a phone call. After all, the general secretary told Krenz that there must be no accidents, and if this kind of thing happens at this juncture, don't think about spending the thrilling years before retirement unharmed.

Yanayev had just finished receiving the ministers of the energy department to discuss the issue of Soviet oil production, and before he could sit down in his office, he received a call from Kryuchkov, and a slightly heavy voice came from Kryuchkov.

"General Secretary Yanayev, we have received credible information that someone is about to assassinate the leader of the German Democratic Baath Party, on the day of Krenz's speech."

"To assassinate Krentz?"

Yanayev was not panicked, but he had a certain headache. He scratched his head and asked, "Has the guy who assassinated Krenz been identified?" I wonder who the hell dared to assassinate the candidate appointed by the Central Committee of the CPSU. ”

"The intelligence feedback is a group of Islamic refugees who are dissatisfied with Krenz's policies, some of whom even have the status of former Libyan army and are suspected of being linked to certain extremist groups. If you want to use this incident to bring down the German Democratic Baath Party, it may be controlled by the CIA, MI6 or even the German Federal Intelligence Service. It is difficult to explain that the Republican Party, which has unclean hands and feet, may also be involved, and even if there are people within the German Democratic Reconstruction Party who want to compete for the position of chancellor. ”

Yanayev thought for a long time before he said slowly, "I will be responsible for contacting the German side in this matter, and I need the KGB to find out who is behind this operation as soon as possible." No matter who the enemy is, we cannot take it lightly. ”

"Okay."

Kryuchkov replied earnestly that he still had self-knowledge in this matter, otherwise he would not have immediately let the KGB agents start an investigation.

Yanayev paused and finally added.

"One more thing, Comrade Kryuchkov, don't leak out about this incident, even if it's Jonishkis, don't say a word, because we don't yet know who the real enemy is. Congressman Krenz has made too many enemies. ”

After hanging up, Yanayev made a phone call to Krenz using a secret line. And tactfully told him the sad news.

"Assassination?"

Krenz didn't show much panic, and for him, most of these secret threats were gone.

"General Secretary Yanayev, to assassinate a candidate for chancellor, this is to provoke the rhythm of East Germany and West Germany to tear up the peace agreement, the IQ of the refugees is not enough, but the people who stand behind them are not stupid."

"I know."

Yanayev nodded, "So I'll let the KGB intelligence officers find out as soon as possible who is behind the scenes." ”

Krenz unexpectedly gave Yanayev a negative answer, "No, we will let this assassination plan go ahead as scheduled, and know when and where they are." And when I was speaking, he fired that shot. ”

Lunatic.

Krenz's madness caught up with Yanayev, who had just been in power, and he knew what the other side was thinking.

"Then you can splash all the dirty water on the refugees, and your chances of winning will be much higher. You can even use this as a threat to coerce the Federal Republic of Germany into making concessions, after all, you occupy all the high places. In any case, this will win you a large number of votes, and you can even use it as an excuse to build up your armaments. ”

Krenz did not speak, and what he had to say was preemptively finished by Yanayev.

"I see, Congressman Krentz, the election is approaching, and I want you to know what to do next."

The general secretary of the CPSU unexpectedly discovered that Krenz was far more scheming than he had imagined. Even if you use the sword to go sideways, you know where to go.

"I have placed all my bets on this assassination, including the future of Germany. The country has been cowardly for too long and needs an iron-blooded strongman to wake up its sleeping populace. ”

"When the time comes, I want the KGB side to arrange these things, you know, now I can't trust anyone except the Soviet side, including the German Democratic Renewal Party, God knows who is planning this conspiracy."

After discussing the details with Yanayev, he replied angrily.

"When I become the leader of Germany, I will clean up all the bastards who forced Germany to death! They should be hanged on the street lamps and use their blood to wash away the shame of Germany for so many years! ”
