The ending of Stalin's thugs

Text/Zhang Yirong

Stalin

Stalin ruled the Red Soviet Union brutally for thirty years from 1924 to his death in 1953. During these thirty years, Stalin trained a total of three hawk-dog thugs, Yagoda, Yezhov and Beria. The common characteristics of the three thugs are that they are bloodthirsty and extremely cruel. They are all directly responsible to Stalin and are known as "Shadow Stalin". In terms of real power, they are actually the second-largest figures in the Soviet Union. What happened to them in the end?

Yagoda

Yagoda was the first thug trained by Stalin after he came to power. After he brutally helped Stalin complete the bloodbath of his political opponents and made Stalin's dominance completely stable, he was directly shot by Stalin on the charge of "espionage" and his body was thrown into the wilderness. It is said that this king said a classic sentence before he died - "It turns out that God exists"!

Yezhov

After Yagoda was killed by Stalin, the person who succeeded Yagoda as the head of KGB was Yezhov. After Yezhov brutally helped Stalin complete the Red Army 's purge, he was also directly ordered to be shot by Stalin for "espionage" and dumped in the wilderness.

Beria

After Yezhov was killed by Stalin, the person who succeeded Yezhov as the head of the KGB was Beria. Beria was world-famous for his ferocity. This was a name that could make any leader except Stalin tremble. One of this man's famous sayings is - "Anyone you give me, I can find a suitable crime for him." After this man brutally helped Stalin eliminate all kinds of political dissidents, as soon as Stalin died, the leaders of the Politburo who had been living in fear couldn't wait to arrest Beria, and quickly shot him to death in the basement!
