Moscow was already very cold in November, especially after heavy snow, the biting cold wind was like a knife. In the Kremlin, after processing the last document, Trotsky looked at the clock on the wall late at night.

Since becoming the chairman of the People's Committee, Trotsky has never slept before twelve o'clock, and even often has to stay busy all night. The huge Soviet Union really had too many jobs to deal with, and meetings and placing documents were almost all his life.

Especially since the outbreak of the Patriotic War, Trotsky was unable to sleep at night and was retreating step by step. As the head of this country, how could he sleep? There were too many problems and too many complex relationships that he needed to settle.

However, even if he was working hard, he was anxious when facing some problems, such as the non-cooperation of the Lenin faction, the sharp conflict between the Military Commission and the General Staff, and the imminent conflict between Sverdlov and Li Xiaofeng.

Trotsky had no choice about the first question, it was a dispute between factions. As the boss of the Trotskyists, he could not do the work of the Leninists, otherwise there would be no Leninists and Trotskyists in the party.

As for the second question, Trotsky could only try his best to treat it equally, respect democratic decision-making as much as possible, and try his best to do Tukhachevsky's work.

The last question, this question, is the most troublesome and unscrupulous problem that Trotsky has. Because this is an internal affairs of the Lenin faction, he, the boss of the opposition, cannot interfere, and if he barely intervenes, he may only intensify the conflict.

Hey, from Trotsky's meaning, he is preparing to maintain harmonious unity within the party and to abandon past grudges? Shouldn't his reaction be gloating?

Hey. This underestimates Trotsky's enlightenment. He is also a second mentor, and as the actual head of the Soviet Union, isn't it something that every parent should do to maintain harmony in this big family?

Trotsky firmly believed that at this critical moment, there must be no chaos within the party, no internal strife or division, and then the party and the country will be destroyed!

Therefore, Trotsky has always had the idea of ​​resolving the conflict between Sverdlov and Li Xiaofeng, and had thought about being an intermediary and being a peacemaker, but he never had the right opportunity. For example, the last time, when Xiao Si and a certain immortal took the lead in the issue of the National Air Defense Force, why did Tukhachevsky lose so thoroughly? The very important reason is that Trotsky chose to give up after weighing the trade-offs and weighing the trade-offs, and what he was afraid of was to detonate the conflict.

However, on this night, he suddenly received good news after Luzutak's matchmaking, Sverdlov and Li Xiaofeng gave up their past grudges and re-established the good, and both sides almost drank and talked.

For Trotsky, he could finally put down a big stone in his heart, and even he was much more relaxed when he reviewed the documents. At that moment, Trotsky couldn't help but think: "This should be the turning point of the Patriotic War in the Party, right? The Party can finally break free from the various contradictions and complex relationships during the war, and can fight against the invaders wholeheartedly, right?"

It must be said that Trotsky is sometimes quite naive. Even if Li Xiaofeng and Sverdlov really let go of their past grudges, it is just that their personal relationship has returned to normal. Two groups have been formed within the Lenin faction. Even if the group leaders remain restrained, the people below may still be undercurrents.

For example, Yagoda, in this storm, his losses were the greatest. Xiao Si and Li Xiaofeng were reconciled as before, which means he had no chance. For an ambitious man who always wanted to climb up, there was nothing more discouraged than a dim future.

And just when Yagoda was in a state of depression, he could only use women to soothe his inner trauma. Well, that was a very beautiful and understanding woman. Her name was Alshipovna.

Alshipovna is a staff member of the Secretariat of the People's Committee of the Internal Affairs. Please note that she is not the secretary of Yagoda. Perhaps to prevent others from gossiping, Yagoda does not eat grass by the side.

But it's just that, men can't control their friends in their crotch. In a season when birds sing, flowers, flowers, herbs and birds are flying, Yageda successfully captured Alshipovna. Uh, at least that's what Yageda himself thinks.

Of course, at the beginning, Yagoda, like many ruthless leaders, was only ready to play, but as he played, he found that he could not live without Alshipovna. This woman made him dream of. If Alshipovna had not repeatedly expressed his unwillingness to be a question of status, Yagoda would have abandoned his wife.

After learning the bad news, Yagoda once again buried his head in the gentle village and licked his wounds: "Yakov is so stupid. How can he believe the nonsense of Luzutak? That guy has been wearing a pair of pants with Andre Petrovic... You see, Yakov must regret his determination in the future!"

The drunken Yagoda galloped hard on Alshipovna's forehead, completely venting the anger in his heart, while the delicate Alshipovna had no complaints, but was constantly comforting the injured beast.

When Yagoda reached its peak, he felt heartbroken and sorry when he looked at the sweating profusely and bruised bruises on his body. However, Alshipovna did not care at all, but instead persuaded: "Comrade Yakov is your cousin after all. As the only person he can rely on in the party, you should understand his difficulties more and do your best to help him resist those villains with ulterior motives. What you need to do now is not to complain, but to work harder and prove that Comrade Yakov is his most reliable partner."

Yagoda's mood suddenly improved a lot, and Alshipovna's words greatly satisfied his vanity. Only he himself knew that in Sverdlov's eyes, his cousin was far from relying on it, and on the other hand, it was almost the same.

However, Alshipovna also pointed out a clear way for Yagoda. When the road knew the horsepower, he didn't believe that Sverdlov could tolerate Li Xiaofeng. Now the conflict has been resolved temporarily and will still break out when the right time is right. All he needs to do is wait patiently.

Late that night, Yagoda returned home happily, but what he didn't know was that this Alshipovna was not a simple character. As a senior spy installed in the People's Committee of the Internal Affairs of MI6, her mission was to obtain confidential information from the Communist Party of the Soviet Union through Yagoda and provoke the internal relations between the Communist Party of the Soviet Union.

It should be said that Alshipovna did a pretty good job. Xiao Si had a distant relationship with a certain immortal, so she was blowing a pillow next to Yagoda. After Yagoda left, she quickly disguised herself as well as sneak out of her residence.

Alshipovna made several rounds of Moscow city, and after confirming that no one was following her, she turned into an alley and hid behind an inconspicuous small door. There she found the linker.

"Are you saying that Sverdlov and Andre Petrovic have been rebuilt? Is this reliable? Didn't you say that they are already in the same position as the fire?" the contact person asked with some doubt.

"Yagoda has no reason to lie to me. Judging from the degree of his violentness today, his mood is really bad. Obviously, he has suffered a major setback." Alshipovna said as she pulled her collar open and asked the contact person to see the blue and purple bruises near her chest.

"Be careful of your behavior, ma'am!"

It is obvious that the contact person is an old-school British gentleman, who dislikes Alshipovna, who is too bold and frivolous. In this regard, Alshipovna shrugged contemptuously. He always pays some price to do intelligence work. She is all for the British Empire, so why are these old antiques treated as women? If it were Learvin, she would never say anything, but would praise and understand her.

To be honest, Alshipovna missed Learvin a little. Only the mentor who trained her and arranged her to enter the Bolsheviks in person could truly understand the espionage business. Others were either hypocrites, old-fashioned, or incompetent or cost-effective, which was boring.

Alshipovna has never seen the mentor again since she entered the Bolsheviks. She said something in her heart, and she was a little strange: "Where is Chief Lierwen? Why didn't she come in person?"

"She is the key target of kgb. It is not suitable for appearing in Moscow. When it is right, she will personally contact you!" the liaison explained.

In fact, the reason why Li Erwen didn't come to the joint was very simple. She knew very well that a certain immortal had some strange abilities. As long as she could easily detect her movements within a certain distance, if she personally contacted Alshipovna, once someone discovered it, it would be like she would lose a senior spy in vain.

Since the outbreak of the Patriotic War, kgb used an iron-fisted steel fist to clean up the internal spies at the fastest and most decisive speed, almost uprooting the branches of foreign intelligence agencies in the Soviet Union. For example, MI6 suffered heavy losses. If Alshepovna had not been disguised as seamlessly, and Lilwin's deliberate "estrangement", Alshepovna would have explained it.

Now, Alshipovna is the most important sight and ears of Britain in the Soviet Union. In order to ensure her safety, Learwin naturally took more caution.

"The new task assigned to you by the superior is to try to figure out whether the Soviet Union's strategic policy in the next stage is possible to launch a counterattack in the past few months. This is related to the interests of the empire. You must not be careless..."

Before the liaison officer could finish his words, Alshipovna decisively flashed. She hated this tone the most, the interests of the empire, is it interesting to repeat this nonsense a hundred times? She is no longer a child.

The liaison officer had no way to deal with Alshipovna's rebelliousness. Who made this person the most important asset of the British Empire in the Soviet Union and could only take care of him carefully. However, he still reported to his superiors: "The intelligence officer A had extremely poor emotional control ability, rebellious, impulsive and irresponsible. From a long-term perspective, new intelligence personnel must be developed in the Soviet Union to replace her..."

When the report was placed in front of Li Erwin, she did not hesitate to knead it into a ball and threw it into the garbage can. This kind of nonsense has the function of a dime. If you have the skill of making small reports, it is better to think more about how to carry out intelligence work!

Yes, Lierwen was also very distressed at this time. Although the intelligence work of the Soviet Union was very important, the priority was still behind Germany. After all, the biggest threat to the empire was it rather than the Soviet Union. In order to obtain important intelligence against Germany, the MI6 dispatched most of the experts to sneak into Germany, France, Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia and Romania. Elites like Lierwen sneaked directly into France.

Why France rather than Germany? The reason is very simple. After the outbreak of World War II, the Gestapo carried out strict counter-espionage measures, and it was almost impossible to sneak into Germany directly. MI6 could only settle for the second best. From the springboard of Paris, France, to the core of the Third Reich. For example, Learwin had already made great progress in Paris, which was considered to be a new situation. This is also the reason why MI6 recovered slowly in the Soviet intelligence agencies.

Learvin sighed, to be honest, it was too unchallenging for her to carry out intelligence work in Paris. No powerful immortal here could constantly fight with her. On the contrary, both French and Germans seemed too pediatric and easily allowed her to steal a large amount of valuable intelligence, which made Learvin feel too relaxed and not at all challenging, so he was a little overwhelmed.

Holding up a glass of red wine, Li Erwen looked into the north, and the shadow of a certain immortal appeared in his mind. At this moment, what was that hateful bastard doing?

Li Xiaofeng was as busy as a dog at this time. After returning to Moscow, he was busy meeting with all the big guys, and then had a talk with Chief Sverdlov, which initially resolved the internal conflicts.

After that, he had no time to rest and almost unstoppable boarded the special plane back to Bryansk. Because he was very worried about the battle situation in Bryansk. If he hadn't been to the front line to boost morale and even drove away the Germans with cheating methods, the defense line would have collapsed long ago, and when he left, he would have lost the help of immortals. Can Rokosovsky and Lukin defend it? If he hadn't been concerned about the influence, he would have wanted to shrink back to Bryansk in seconds.

However, when Li Xiaofeng rushed back to Bryansk in a burgeoning manner, he found that he underestimated Rokosovsky and Lujin, who were still a few tricks. Without a certain immortal, the shaky 6th and 16th armies still defended the defense line extremely strongly. Only a small group of German troops broke through some positions, and overall the situation did not deteriorate suddenly.

This made Li Xiaofeng feel relieved, especially after he personally went to the front line, he found that the German army had lost all its energy. If they had serious problems with supply, if they did not have an absolute advantage in their troops, they would not continue to maintain the offensive at this moment. Thank God if they were not reversed by the Red Army.

In Guderian's command, a charcoal basin was exerting its residual heat without any vitality. It was not that even generals of Guderian's level had a problem in receiving heating, but that the tank monster was not in the mood to add firewood to the charcoal basin, and there was a lot of bad news in front of him.

The first tank cluster lacks everything from ammunition to fuel to food, medicine and patronage, and it is not ordinary. The extreme cold has made some soldiers lose their minds. For a military coat, a potato will fight. There have been as many as 100 armed fights in the past three days.

The once elite German army has now gradually degenerated into a group of bandits. If the material supply continues to deteriorate, even bandits may not be able to do it and will become the most primitive beast.

At this moment, Guderian was very helpless and angry. If the superior could listen to him, why would he retreat be like this now? If this continues, his troops would collapse without the Red Army.

What made Guderian even more painful was that the superiors still did not realize the seriousness of the problem and were still urging him to continue attacking over and over again. Damn, how to attack now, expect a group of soldiers who were so cold that they couldn't stretch their hands and feet and were hungry to fight with the more they fought, the more they were, the more they were, the more they were, the more they were, the more they were, the more they were, the more they were smarter. Isn't this a tragic battle?

So, Guderian directly canceled the order from the superior and ordered the troops to defend the defense line on the spot, and mobilized troops to sweep the surrounding towns and grab some winter supplies as much as possible.

Of course, he was not polite to his superiors, and he got angry: "If you want us to attack, you can. Please transfer the full amount of quilts, food and fuel as soon as possible. Without these, would my soldiers be naked and bite the enemy to death with their teeth?"

Hitler was very angry about Guderian's discooperation, believing that the victory of Poland and France had made the generals below stand up and no longer take him as the head of state seriously. He complained to Eva angrily: "The National Defense Forces are unreliable. These damn Junker nobles did not take me seriously at all. As long as they had the opportunity, they would rebel. The only ones that could be reliable were the SS..."

At one point, the madman even had the idea of ​​directly removing Guderian from his post. Fortunately, he was not completely crazy yet, so he just personally drafted a telegram and scolded Guderian.

However, the head of state's saliva cannot solve the real problem of the first tank cluster. In the cold and cold Russia, they have to accept a lot of torture, and the situation will soon worsen.

For example, the 21st Army, which Rokosovsky had been waiting for for a long time, finally arrived in Bryansk. Although there was only one division, this division also made Rokosovsky, who had no reserve team at all, relieved. As soon as the division arrived in Bryansk, he ordered the division to quickly replace the 46th Infantry Division.

However, what Rokosovsky did not expect was that his kindness almost ruined the big thing... (To be continued)
