Chapter 793 Negotiation

"Really?" Shulka said: "So, Comrade John, as an ally...have you shared intelligence with us? At the same time, as an ally, should the transport supplies from the Caucasus be sent to us? That is US aid. Supplies from the Soviet Union!"

"It doesn't seem to have anything to do with me!" John spread his hands.

"Then how to decide on this matter seems to have nothing to do with you!" Shulka said: "You just need to convey our meaning to your superiors and the British government!"

"But how do I know if the value of your intelligence is worth it!" John said while shaking the list in his hand.

"You don't need to know!" Shulka leaned his upper body forward and said word by word: "Besides, we have an additional condition. Only after you have done this, we will give you the information! You know Yes, the value of information will decrease with the passage of time, and it may even be meaningless, so... I think you should act faster!"

"But…"

"That's the end of the conversation!" Shulka interrupted John: "You can go, Comrade John!"

John froze for a moment, then nodded and left without saying anything.

Looking at the back of John leaving, Akadyevich looked at Shulka in disbelief.

"Is that all?" Akadyevich said: "Should we not talk more? After all... this is not a small matter!"

"There is no need to talk too much!" Shulka replied: "He is not a person who can make decisions, so he will just keep trying from the conversation!"

"Okay!" Akadyevich replied: "I thought we should explain to him the importance of this information, such as how much threat it will pose to the United Kingdom!"

"They know the importance of this information!" Shulka explained: "And they are British, and they have their spies and agents all over the world. If you reveal more...they can know what happened by themselves!"

Akadyevich couldn't help but let out an "oh".

Beria, who was in another room, had been monitoring the whole process through a bug, and he nodded in satisfaction when he heard this, and then said to the staff: "He is a smart man, and he is the right person to be in charge of this matter! "

"But!" The staff officer said a little worriedly: "Such a simple and rough conversation, not at all transparent... What if the British think we are just scaring them and don't take it seriously?"

"The British won't!" Beria shook his head and said, "Because it's so simple and rude, and at the same time, Shurka is also a battle-tested infantryman, so the British think that he has a well-thought-out plan. They have every reason to doubt Shuerka. When Ka was fighting on the front line, he captured some important documents from the enemy, so he knew some amazing plans of the Germans!"

This is actually one of Beria's intentions for letting Shulka be in charge of this matter. This is actually misleading the British to investigate in the wrong direction... Britain is a veteran espionage country, and even Beria dare not hang on Take it lightly.

If Shulka heard these words, I'm afraid he should sigh "Ginger is still old and spicy".

In London, England, David Petri, director of MI5, found Churchill as soon as he received the information.

MI5 fell into a trough before the war, and it was not until David Petry took over in 1941 that he ushered in a golden age again under his organization.

Petri handed the document to Churchill, who was drinking brandy and smoking a cigar, and said: "This is a request from the Soviets to us, Your Excellency Prime Minister!"

Churchill just glanced at the document and laughed: "Demand, they must be crazy!"

"I don't think so, Your Excellency Prime Minister!" Petri replied solemnly: "They may have a piece of information, which may seriously threaten the security of the United Kingdom. The Soviets hope to use these in exchange!"

Churchill froze for a moment, put the cigar in his mouth and took a few puffs, and then asked: "Do you think this is true? They have information about British security in their hands?"

"I'm not sure, Your Excellency Prime Minister!" Petri then handed over another photo and said, "This is the person who is in charge of this matter, the 'breakout hero' of the Soviet Union!"

Churchill raised his eyebrows, he had heard of this "breakout hero", this guy is a lucky one on the battlefield.

"They put an infantry officer in charge of this?" Churchill was quite surprised by this.

"Yes!" Petri replied: "So we believe that this information is likely to be related to infantry!"

Then Petri handed another stack of documents to Churchill, and said: "So I investigated the unit he was in again, the 51st Army... This unit has won many victories recently, especially the capture of Karachi recently!"

Speaking of which, Petri pointed out the location of Karachi on the map, and continued: "Karachi was originally the location of Paulus' headquarters, commander of the German Sixth Army. Although they had been breached by the Soviet 57th Army before that, they Could there be some secret document or intelligence that was not discovered until the 51st Army took full control of Karachi?"

Churchill didn't look at those documents, because he knew that even if he looked at them, he wouldn't see anything.

He got up and walked to the window, looking out at the foggy sky and said: "If this information is true, I mean...the Germans may pose a threat to our security, then what is it? David? We The navy is stronger than the Germans, the air force has defeated them, can they still swim?"

"I don't know, Your Excellency Prime Minister!" Petri replied: "But we can't take this risk, do you think so? What's more, what the Soviets asked for..."

Speaking, Petri took a look at the documents and said: "These are not excessive. We originally planned to supply them, and it is even good for us to supply them, because they are using these supplies to deal with the Germans!"

"Don't you think they think so too?" Churchill asked back: "They knew we would think so, so they set up this trap!"

Petri considered for a while, then shook his head and said: "No, Your Excellency Prime Minister, there is no need for them to do this!"

Churchill turned around and asked, "Why?"

"Because the situation on the battlefield is developing in a direction favorable to the Soviet Union!" Petry said: "The Soviets have surrounded the German Sixth Army and repelled Manstein's attack. Now it is the Germans who are in trouble." .If the Soviets were trying to blackmail us, they should have done it when it was most difficult, not now!"

Churchill could not help but be speechless.

"So!" Petri finally concluded: "I think this is true, they do have a piece of intelligence related to British security!"
