Chapter 71 Political intelligence: Can affect the overall political situation (1)
Military intelligence can change the course and direction of a war, while political intelligence is sufficient to influence the overall political situation. In most cases, military intelligence and political intelligence complement each other to influence the overall situation, and even attempt to change the world pattern.For this reason, based on national security and national interests, it is necessary to always raise the awareness of foreign defenses and kill political intelligence that lives in the dark.

§§§ Section [-] During World War II, KGB intelligence personnel collected intelligence in China

In the field of intelligence personnel, when it comes to the KGB of the former Soviet Union, almost everyone knows everyone, and even makes people change their faces. This huge intelligence organization gives people the impression that it is very mysterious and arrogant. The intelligence under this organization spreads all over the world. every corner.Here, the FBI will introduce a group of KGB intelligence personnel who were active on the Chinese battlefield during the Second World War, among whom there are many world-renowned intelligence personnel such as Richard Sorge.

When the Second World War was in full swing, the former Soviet intelligence agencies and the Ministry of Internal Affairs not only sent a large number of spies to European countries and other fascist Axis countries, but also sent to other Asian countries such as China occupied by the Japanese army. Many intelligence workers.These intelligence personnel entered China as volunteers and field service personnel. Later, due to the needs of the war, the intelligence agencies of the former Soviet Union selected some staff members with certain specialties from among the intelligence personnel, and used various legal identities as Cover, go deep into the Japanese-occupied areas, and collect all kinds of valuable information for the intelligence centers of the former Soviet Union in China and domestic intelligence agencies.

After the failure of the Chinese Revolution in 1927, the Chinese Communists suffered a bloody and brutal massacre, especially the atrocities committed by the Kuomintang in Shanghai, and the intelligence team sent by the former Soviet Union to China was also destroyed.Immediately afterwards, Japan's ambition to annex China became more and more obvious, and Asia was shrouded in an atmosphere of terror of an impending war.Due to extremely complicated political, military and national interests and other factors, Stalin had long paid attention to the Far East and even more to China.During this period, the intelligence personnel of the former Soviet KGB also infiltrated into China.

One of the key figures who infiltrated the Chinese KGB intelligence operatives was Richard Sorge.From 1930 to 1932, the former Soviet agent Richard Sorge used the identity of a famous German journalist as a cover, and led the intelligence team he established to collect a lot of intelligence in China, especially about Japan’s invasion plan against China. An important reference for the Soviet Union to judge the strategic intentions of Germany and Japan.

The main task of Richard Sorge in China was to collect information on China's political, military and diplomatic aspects, and to gain an in-depth understanding of the China policies of Britain, France, the United States and Japan.Richard Sorge is proficient in English, French and Russian. Before and after coming to China, he mastered Chinese and Japanese in a short period of time.Richard Sorge used the name "Ramza" in the former Soviet intelligence community, and the network of intelligence organizations in charge was therefore known as the "Ramza Group".The team has 14 core members, including radio operators, translators, liaison officers, photographers, military advisers, etc., including Poles, Germans and Chinese.A few months later, Richard Sorge expanded his intelligence network to Guangzhou, Tianjin and other places.

At the same time, Richard Sorge also paid close attention to the leadership of the Communist Party of China and the development of the liberated areas, and tracked and understood the situation of Chiang Kai-shek's encirclement and suppression of the liberated areas in a timely manner. In a report by Richard Sorge, he said: "At present, the Soviet The movement flourished in more than 300 counties in the central and southern regions. The Soviet area had 36 corps of regular troops, in addition to 20 militias and about 100 million poorly equipped worker and peasant partisans...The Soviet government was committed to eliminating imperialist oppression and All the feudal remnants confiscated the land of the landlords, distributed it to the peasants, and exempted the peasants from their debts. All these measures made the Soviet area point out the way for the liberation of the whole of China. Although the Nanjing government received extensive and comprehensive support from many imperialist countries, However, the Soviet area could not be eradicated. Chiang Kai-shek’s vigorous conquest of the Soviet area failed one after another. However, the Kuomintang does not intend to lay down its arms, and will launch a new round of conquests against the liberated areas in the near future...” From this we can see that Richard Sorge’s views on the Chinese Communist Party and the situation in the liberated areas How well understood.

However, with Richard Sorge's extensive activities in China, his actions began to be secretly monitored by Kuomintang agents, and Richard Sorge also noticed it. In this way, Richard Sorge returned to Moscow and continued to engage in intelligence Work.Later generations commented that Richard Sorge was one of the best agents of the former Soviet Union.

On the Chinese battlefield, an excellent intelligence officer who stood shoulder to shoulder with Richard Sorge was Chuikov. In the summer of 1938, Stalin personally approved the former Soviet military mission to come to China. Among them, Chuikov was among the 21 senior officers. In 1929 participated in the Battle of the Far East.

In December 1940, Cuikov came to China for the third time.Before leaving, Stalin had a "top secret" conversation with Chuikov.Stalin said: "The task of you and all the personnel stationed in China is to tightly tie the hands and feet of the Japanese aggressors. Only when the hands and feet of the Japanese aggressors are tied, can we avoid the two forces once the German aggressors attack our country. Front-line operations." Cuikov came here this time to serve as the head of the former Soviet military mission in China and as Chiang Kai-shek's general military adviser.The list of assistance Cuikov brought to the Chiang Kai-shek government was: 12 fighter jets, 150 fast bombers, nearly 100 artillery pieces, 300 Gies-500 vehicles and their corresponding equipment and accessories.

The military advisers of the former Soviet Union were all over the Kuomintang's various theaters, so it was easy to grasp Chiang Kai-shek's military situation.Chuikov can attend the weekly military council meeting chaired by Chief of Staff and Defense Minister He Yingqin.Cuikov had extensive contact with military attaches stationed in China from various countries, collected a large amount of world military intelligence, and quickly reported it to the former Soviet government.For example, the strength of the Kuomintang is only equivalent to half of the strength of the Japanese army in China. Chiang Kai-shek also wants to promote a new "relationship of trust" with the former Soviet Union to jointly fight against Japanese fascism.Especially when Stalin's secret suspicions were growing day by day, the former Soviet government urgently ordered Cuikov to quickly report the tendentious information about whether the Japanese army was "advancing north" or "advancing south".This is a major task related to the strategic direction of the former Soviet Union. Closely related to this is the upcoming visit of Japanese Foreign Minister Hiroyuki Matsuoka to the former Soviet Union.

For emergency use, a special plane sent by the former Soviet Union was on standby in Lanzhou, China.In an emergency situation, Cui Kefu, relying on his special identity, finally obtained the Japanese documents related to Japan's "Southern Advance" obtained by the Kuomintang government, copied them quickly, and sent them to the former Soviet special plane waiting to fly in Lanzhou. The intelligence that Japan's "southward advance" is greater than the possibility of "northward advance".Then the world saw the Soviet-Japanese neutrality treaty came out on April 1941, 4.History shows that before the outbreak of the Soviet-German War, Stalin felt that Japan intended to "advance south" and avoided fighting on two fronts, thus enabling the former Soviet Union to fight back against the invading enemy in one direction with all its strength, contributing to the World Anti-Fascist War .

§§§Section [-] The CIA Instigates a Coup in Indonesia
In the 20s, the foreign policy of the United States highlighted global characteristics, and the intelligence activities of the CIA were also global.With the growing power and influence of the former Soviet Union, China's outstanding performance on the world stage, the wave of revolutions worldwide, and the growing power of the left in Europe and the third world, all this is a headache for Washington. situation.During this period, Allen Dulles formulated two covert operations plans for the CIA, namely, the plan to overthrow the left-wing governments in Iran and Guatemala. Both achieved the intended purpose, while the Vietnam operation in Asia failed.But the failure of the CIA in Vietnam did not stop him from trying again to overthrow the government of another Asian country. The FBI will introduce you to the catastrophe that took place in 50 in Indonesia.

Indonesian President Sukarno led the Indonesian people to end the 1949-year rule of the Dutch colonialists in 350 and declared independence. After independence, Indonesia adopted a firm attitude towards Western society. The "Bandung Conference" was successfully held in Jakarta in 1955. After President Sukarno visited the former Soviet Union and other socialist countries, he felt the new atmosphere of national liberation in Asia and Africa. In February 1957, Sukarno suddenly announced that the "Western parliamentary system" was not suitable for this country composed of various large and small islands. ", which expanded the influence of the Communist Party in Indonesian political life.During this period, Indonesia held a general election in which the Communist Party of Indonesia won 2/1 of the votes. According to this, President Sukarno proposed that the Communist Party should also occupy 4/1 of the seats in the cabinet.These actions of Sukarno made the Americans very angry. The CIA decided to pull out the nail of Sukarno and planned to use the form of "Guatemala coup" to overthrow the Sukarno regime. During the first half of 4, the CIA provided direct assistance to anti-Sukarno Indonesian rebels stationed on the island of Sumatra.Moreover, in order to cooperate with this military operation, Joseph Burkhold, deputy head of the Fifth Far East Group of the Planning Division, participated in a secret operation to vilify Sukarno's image in preparation for the overthrow of Sukarno's rule.

Years later, Joseph Burkhold recounted the CIA's covert plan to overthrow Sukarno's regime.Joseph Burkhold points out: The CIA has written many articles on the subject of Sukarno's pro-communist leanings for several months...and finally came up with a theme: Sukarno was willing to be under the control of a former Soviet female agent. drive.The implication is that the reason why Sukarno succumbed to the control of the former Soviet Union was the result of the influence of this female spy, or the result of her acting both hard and soft.
