"Hey! Nikolai, what kind of party was the Bolsheviks? The German engineer sitting on the side whispered to the man next to him.
Nikolai was a manager of the Leningrad State Railway Company in the Soviet Union, where he assisted German engineers in this Soviet-German railway cooperation project.
"Bolsheviks? It's certainly great. Nikolai didn't lift his head.
"Really? But I heard that your father died at their hands. In Germany, we don't use the word 'great' to call our father-killer, Igor. The German said as if casually.
Nikolai clenched his fists sharply when he heard this, but then let go and asked in a low voice; "How do you know? What do you want? "
Nikolai never told anyone around him about his background, and no one even knew that his original name was Igor, because in the Soviet Union, the identity of the "son of a capitalist" was shameful and would bring disaster.
Nikolai, no, Igor's family has been in business since the 18th century, and their family owns several department stores in Moscow, which has brought much wealth to Eagle's family. But in the hands of Igor's grandfather the family began to decline, but in Moscow they remained famous.
Nikolai, no, Igor's family has been in business since the 18th century, and their family owns several department stores in Moscow, which has brought much wealth to Eagle's family. But in the hands of Igor's grandfather the family began to decline, but in Moscow they remained famous.
Igor's father was an ambitious man who devoted his life to revitalizing the family, so he named his son Igor, which means blessed by the god of wealth in Russian.
But the god of wealth apparently did not bless his family because he was called Igor. Under the efforts of his father, the family business finally improved, what he did not expect was that Russia was unlucky to encounter a world war, under the order of the tsar, the entire empire began to enter a wartime system, everyone had to donate money and materials to the country, and the Igor family was no exception.
In 1917, the third year of the war, the boiling public grievances finally vented. A general strike of 300,000 people began in the capital, Petrograd. After being brutally suppressed by the government. The strike turned into an armed uprising.
Supported by tens of thousands of soldiers, the people quickly captured the Tsar's Nest Hermitage and government ministries.
The uprising in the capital was a complete victory, and the tsar, seeing that the tide was turning, was forced to abdicate the throne to his brother Mikhail on March 15. The next day. Mikhail also abdicated, and the Romanov dynasty, which had ruled Russia for 304 years, was overthrown by the February Revolution, and the Russian bourgeois-democratic revolution was victorious.
Igor's father, who was far away in Moscow, heard that the oppressive tsarist government had dissolved and that the bourgeois revolution had triumphed and burst into tears, because it represented the hope of his family's eventual revival.
But he did not expect that, together with the bourgeois provisional government, there was another regime - the Soviets of workers, peasants and soldiers led by the Bolsheviks.
In October, the armed forces of the Bolsheviks led by Lenin launched a general attack on the Winter Palace of the bourgeois provisional government, which was overthrown.
The flames of revolution burned throughout Russia, and Moscow bore the brunt of it. A large number of capitalists were overthrown, and all the wealth of the Igor family was confiscated and nationalized. His father was killed red-handed by the Red Army in a stop.
This hit Igor so hard that he changed his name to Nikolai, away from Moscow, to Leningrad, which had not yet been renamed at the time, and got a job at the state railway company.
Since he grew up in a merchant family, he more or less understood the operation and management of the company, which is already a rare management talent in a state-owned company with a large number of workers. So Igor was appointed manager, and that's what it is now.
"No, no, no, you don't need to know how I know this. Forget it, it's better to work, Germanic people do not talk to spineless people. The German engineer gave Igor a contemptuous look.
"In our Soviet Union, no one will forget the hatred of the father! I am not a spineless person, men in Russia are bloody! "Nikolai's grievances over the years completely broke out,He yelled at the engineer.
The German engineer pretended to look at him in surprise, secretly laughed in his heart that his agitation method had an effect, and then said; "Oh, so you still have a bit of a man's blood. Then I ask you again, are you dissatisfied with the current situation? "
"Of course, I swear I will avenge my father." Nikolai trembled with anger, and then he took a steel pipe and walked to the door of the office, he was going to seek revenge on the Bolsheviks.
The engineer was really taken aback this time, this fighting nation is worthy of its name, and it is said that it will be done with its hands. He hurriedly hugged Nikolai and persuaded; "Hey, hey! Man, calm down, calm down. Lower the steel pipe. If you think about it, what can you do when you rush out like this? You can only kill one or two, maybe you can't even kill one or two. Can this be considered revenge? "
You gradually calmed down and said; "What do I do according to you?"
When the engineer heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart and said; "You're scheming. In this way, when my work here is done, I will make a request for cooperation to your superiors, so that our two countries can send talents to each other to learn, and you will take the opportunity to return to Germany with me, in Germany you can let go of the work, after learning some knowledge, you can return to the Soviet Union and organize a group of people like you, you can resist tyranny together, this can be effective. "
Nikolai bowed his head and pondered for a while, and said; "Good idea, thank you brother." Then ask suspiciously, "Why are you so nice to me?" "
Engineers pretend to be profound; "Because I, like you, are full of dissatisfaction with the USSR.
The engineer was one of five specially trained men brought with him, while the other four were trying to persuade others dissatisfied with the Soviet Union to rise up and resist.
These people will be taken to Germany under various names, where they will be thoroughly brainwashed, and then return to the USSR to convey the idea of resistance to more people.
In later generations, this method of pulling people and brainwashing has a disgusting name - pyramid schemes.
Of course, the method of pyramid schemes is only borrowed here, and it is not as inhumane as in later generations.
The engineer continued: "You cannot expose the psychology of resistance now, because you do not have enough strength, and rash exposure will only make your revenge fail." "
"Eun, I understand." Nikolai had never seen such a professional rebel professional now full of confidence in the engineer, no matter what he said, he would believe it.
The engineer nodded with a teachable expression on his face and continued; "Okay, then let's continue to work and finish the railway design, so that they will let their guard down on you."
The office fell silent again, as if nothing had happened.
In the late autumn of 1923, the spy organization to which the Gestapo belonged was officially developed in other countries.
