Big Time 1958 - Chapter 968

   “Can I still have something to eat?” Serov was holding a Damascus steel knife, just saw the apples on the table, and was stunned.

   Why is it an apple again? In the face of different people, this same situation has appeared countless times, and Serov can’t help thinking too much now, he can only comfort himself, atheists don’t think too much about this kind of coincidence. It’s just because the people he sees are old people who don’t have much time, and it has nothing to do with the nonsense of poisoned apples.

“Thank you, in fact, you are already the general secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, and I am very happy to visit me.” Ibaluri smiled mildly, “The momentum of the Soviet Union around the world is getting higher and higher, and the confrontation over the past few years. , the Soviet Union did not suffer, this is really completely different from before.”

“That is the strength of the entire Soviet people, and it has nothing to do with who the leader is. All I can do is to guide the vast majority of people correctly and let them do the right thing.” Shelov lowered his head and skillfully peeled his skin, his voice very Calm, “A mature country doesn’t need great leaders, great leaders exist only in difficult times for the country. If the Soviet Union had not been facing strong external pressure, it would not have become what it is now. When we break through the last yoke, My mission has also been completed. The country does not have to be forced to compare its welfare with Europe, and its armament with the United States. After all, building with a knife in one hand and the other will not last long…”

He quickly handed the cut apple to Ibaluri, looked at the other party and said, “Today, there have been fewer and fewer great revolutionaries who have come from the revolutionary era. My visit has nothing to do with the comparison of national strength, it is just simple The expression of respect for Comrade Ibaluli, the history of the international communist movement, Comrade Ibaluli plays an important role in it, and I, just a general secretary, there will be many, many general secretaries of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union in the future, Sooner or later I will be forgotten.”

“No, if you can break this balance.” Ibaluri said noncommittally, “I have spent a lot of time in the Soviet Union, and it can be said that the Soviet Union is my second hometown. Maybe the real core secret of the Soviet Union I do not know. Yes, but I feel that you are prepared to hope that the Soviet Union can become a country that truly conforms to the original vision of socialism.”

“Hope it!” Serov was still a little shocked. For the oldest group of Communist Party members in many countries, the meaning of the Soviet Union to these people is extraordinary, even Serov himself can’t understand that these people from different countries, Why really embrace a nascent Soviet Union.

  Now all over the world, such people still exist. If you look carefully, you can always find them. After chatting for a while, Serov left the Madrid Hospital, where he has been staying, which is inconvenient for the hospital itself.

   “I don’t know where the blood of the international column was left fifty years ago.” Serov’s next stop was the Spanish Communist Party headquarters, where he met with Anguita, the general secretary of the Spanish Communist Party.

  The Spanish Communist Party has good relations with the French Communist Party and the Italian Communist Party. That is to say, improvements are being made, but Serov believes that as long as the Soviet Union itself does not have problems, these reformists will not set off a big wave.

   These European communist parties are used to being pampered, and the poor places in the world still occupy most of the world. They have broken away from the foundation they started from. Naturally, this kind of party will not have an ideological impact on the Soviet Union. The parties that the Soviet Union needs to be wary of are the ones that are too down-to-earth.

“General Secretary Serov, many newspapers said that the Soviet Union and the United States will jointly destroy the medium-range missiles in Europe. Is that true?” The Spanish Communist Party General Secretary Anguita had just met and asked directly about the big news that is now raging. Spain It is also a member of Europe, of course, very concerned about this matter, and hereby confirms it.

“There is this matter. After all, like the United States, we have been under pressure from many allies. It is also a good thing to remove these nuclear missiles. It has generally been determined, and there may be details to be dealt with.” Shelov did not hide it. In his opinion, as long as this It is basically impossible to destroy a batch of medium-range missiles when they come back. Of course, the Soviet Union suffered a big loss from the quantitative comparison, but it was a strategic victory. The medium-range missiles could not hit the United States, but the United States’ medium-range missiles in Europe could hit the Soviet Union. This disadvantage cannot be changed by doubling the number of missiles.

  In terms of the destruction of medium-range missiles alone, it may be the only role that played a positive role in the Go map at that time. Although it seems that the Soviet Union suffered a loss, it also broke through a shackle on the Soviet Union. But who knows that later Ge Map actually began to disintegrate the Soviet armed forces, directly turning a good thing into a bad thing about digging the foundations of the Soviet Union.

The    Intermediate-Range Missile Treaty is equivalent to a mole on the face of the Soviet Union, which needs to be clicked under normal circumstances. Ge Map actually chose to dig it down with a knife. If so, it would be better to keep threatening each other with nuclear missiles.

“Maybe this is the real history of me. Ge map traveled from my world to the past. Did the United States develop some black technology to create a person who messed up the Soviet Union and sent it to the past through a time machine?” On the way back to China The Serov’s brain hole is wide open, all reforms have no effect, many policies that started well have been abolished, and the hit rate is too lenient.

  Crazy thinking is just a tweak in life. Before he returned to the Soviet Union, he received news from Smolensk Square that France’s attitude had changed, and he hoped that the Soviet Union and the United States would sign a treaty as soon as possible to destroy medium-range missiles. The stance on the Libyan hostage crisis also began to shift subtly.

“This is all in my expectation. We have not seen this kind of swing of the French. However, the change of the French’s position should be spread in Arab countries through our channels, especially in countries where Arab nationalism is widely recognized. , Forget the Gulf countries, those emirates, I have other ways to deal with them.” Shelov said indifferently, “No one can eat a fat man in one bite. Every time a problem is solved, we will eventually see the day when there is no problem. .”

At the meeting of the Central Presidium of the Kremlin, Serov, who had just returned to China, said defiantly, “Once all medium-range missiles are destroyed, we will receive less threat, and the advantage on land will be greater. European and American countries have always believed that no one Dare to attack Western Europe, because they have powerful nuclear weapons. There is no certain thing in this world, we are always preparing for nuclear war, and as long as the time comes, we must do it.”

“According to our earlier plan, we should withdraw some troops to reduce the pressure on Western European countries.” Second Secretary Ligachev said, “All comrades have already understood that the withdrawn troops are the strengthened troops stationed in northern Poland after the Turkish war. Cluster troops, cancel two-thirds of the establishment, that is, 200,000 people.”

After the   Turkish War, the pressure on the Soviet Union’s southern front was greatly reduced, and the Soviet troops in the Caucasus were transferred to strengthen the northern cluster in Poland, and continued to maintain a high pressure on Western Europe. From time to time, after the medium-range missiles were destroyed, the permanent force of the Soviet Union in Europe was very conspicuous. Even if the entire northern cluster was removed, the military power of the Warsaw Pact was absolutely superior in number.

   In order to make the Soviet tank army less conspicuous and at the same time change the direction of the attack, Serov advocated the withdrawal of the Soviet troops on the front line to the country at the previous meeting of the Soviet Central Presidium. Just withdrawing to the country, not disarmament.

“Oil prices are still falling, we have no problem, but Iraq and Iran, although they have not stated it yet, but we can also investigate, the Iraqi Communist Party and the Iranian People’s Party are under strong pressure. Hostility to the Gulf countries is also Rising, we can’t wait for an accident to start supporting the two countries. It’s too late at that time. Instead, we must start to adjust the deployment now and become a solid backing for the allies.” Serov continued, “The withdrawal of the Soviet troops back to the country will of course be carried out with great fanfare. However, where it will be deployed after returning to China is a top secret. The military camps in the Caucasus region have not been abandoned for ten years and can be put back into use without repairs.”

   Foreign Minister Gromyko nodded. Like Serov, he had just returned to China and agreed, “In principle, we and the United States will destroy all medium-range missiles in Europe within two years.”

“At the same time that the medium-range missiles were destroyed, we transported the soldiers of the northern group back to the country for two years!” Shelov calculated the time and said, “Now we make some adjustments again, this time is different from the original, but It takes a unified adjustment across departments to look for opportunities to deliver the fatal blow.”

  The political environment on the Soviet side is like this, and the fewer people who want to know about some changes, the better. The political environment in the United States was completely different, and Reagan had to let everyone know what he did.

It’s not too difficult for President Ronald Reagan, a cold fighter, to do it first. At the same time, the American media began to report the change in France’s attitude, and some gossip began to circulate. For example, Reagan scolded France and made Mitterrand change his original intention. Stand with the United States under strong pressure.

   In fact, the turn of the French has already begun, and the Soviet Union and the United States have promised what France needs. French President Mitterrand said that the Libyan hostage crisis should be resolved as soon as possible, and the Soviet Union should shoulder its international responsibilities and solve the problem together with France and the United States. The safety of these hostages affects the hearts of many people.

  Reagan claimed to be angry at Mitterrand, and Mitterrand was really angry at Gaddafi. The big spy who looked at the newspaper pouted and shook his head, “Big fish eat small fish, and small fish eat shrimp. This world has always been like this, and its essence has never changed.”

   “Libya has promised to open military bases to the Soviet Union!” General Zweigon took the opportunity to report the good news.
