Liu Weihong nodded yes.

He was worried that after he wrote this article, the Soviet leaders would read it and be prepared, and perhaps the development of history would be different from what he remembered. But the coup d'état still took place, and it was "on time".

Now, it seems unsurprising. I don't know what kind of psychology is at work, maybe Gorbachev was too confident. Yakovlev's unequivocal warnings were not taken to heart, let alone an article published in a foreign journal by a foreigner like him. Gorbachev may or may not have arrived, or he may not have seen it, in short, he did not take it seriously.

Even, he did it on purpose. The official bar is quick to share with you

Liu Weihong's mind suddenly popped up with such an idea, and he was startled.

Perhaps Gorbachev basically wanted to subvert the ruling party of the Soviet Union, and deliberately created such an opportunity for Yanayev and others to launch a coup d'état, and then took down all the representatives of these hardliners in the party. In this way, the ruling party of the USSR will be dissolved, and there will be no more resistance! If that's the case, that's interesting.

Naturally, Liu Weihong just thought about it, and immediately took it back. It doesn't matter what kind of mentality Gorbachev is now, at least for Liu Weihong, it basically doesn't matter. What he needs to do now is how to use this incident to reap the greatest "benefits". Anyone who is well versed in political struggle will think this way.

"Weihong, what do you think about how this matter will develop next?"

After a while, the old man asked indifferently, and his tone was very peaceful.

The old man is in such a hurry to summon Liu Weihong back to Beijing, this sentence is the point. As for Liu Weihong's "knowing things like gods"...... The old man admired in his heart, but he didn't have to say it in his mouth. It's not that the old man has lived his whole life and has been in the center for decades, so he can't analyze it. But Liu Weihong's previous performance was so eye-catching, and the old man wanted to hear his opinion. First, it can be used as a reference, and secondly, it is also a more comprehensive evaluation of this grandson.

Look at the old Liu family, is there really a thousand-mile horse!

Liu Weihong straightened up, replied respectfully "yes", and then said: "Grandpa, in my opinion, the ruling party of the Soviet Union is really ossified, the system is rigid, the thinking is also rigid, and there are no talents.

The old man couldn't help but be stunned, and Ma Guoping also showed a look of surprise on his face.

I never expected Liu Weihong to say such a thing, but where to start?

Liu Weihong smiled and said: "Let's talk about this emergency committee, whether they are carrying out a coup d'état or playing a family is really a bit difficult to take." Judging from the composition alone, it is quite scary, the government, the army, the internal affairs forces, the intelligence services, and the traffic control departments all participated, and in addition to the chief of staff of the president, the closest people to Gorbachev, all supported the emergency committee. From this point of view, Gorbachev was really a failure, and his main deputies, including his closest confidants, were separated from him. To put it mildly, I really can't understand what he has done in the past few years in power! "Official, let's quickly share it with you

The old man remained silent, but Ma Guoping couldn't help but nodded, and seemed to agree with what Liu Weihong said. According to common sense, it is indeed very difficult to understand.

The vice president, the prime minister, the minister of defense, the minister of internal affairs, the chairman of the KGB, the head of the president's office, etc., were all Gorbachev's right-hand men, and at the critical moment, they all betrayed him. This supreme leader deserves it, and he really has no level.

Such a thing, in Ma Guoping's opinion, is simply incredible.

And being the boss like this?

When it is the turn of the level of political struggle, or the turn of the wisdom of officials, I am afraid that if our country takes out a secretary of a township party committee who has never gone to school, it will not be so miserable.

It seems that Lao Maozi is really vulgar and uncivilized!

Where can I get the breadth and profundity of my way of mastering the state and the culture of struggle?

However, Gorbachev is not helpful, and these members of the emergency committee are also sloppy. It has been thirty or forty hours since the coup d'état, and there has been no substantive action except for a few proclamations. Neither Gorbachev nor coercive measures were taken to control the state apparatus, and there was no martial law on the streets of Moscow. As if waiting for Gorbachev himself to surrender on his own initiative. It is also an eye-opener to carry out a coup d'état and do it like this. Whether it was the change of Xuanwumen, the change of Tanglong, or the battle of Jingjing, who didn't go on a killing spree? Only the change of rank is a little interesting, and these eight members of the Emergency Committee are similar to the eight ministers such as Su Shun. When Emperor Xianfeng died in Rehe, the queen mother of the two palaces asked Su Shun to lead the minister of the guard, Su Shun actually went to the table to resign, and handed over the power of the Praetorian Guards in his hand, and was later beheaded, not wronged at all. ”

Liu Weihong said with a smile.

The old man's snow-white eyebrows were raised slightly, and his eyes showed extreme surprise.

No matter what Liu Weihong says, it is not as shocking as this one caused him. Generally speaking, a young man like Liu Weihong actually ...... Meng ...... In view of the general trend of the Soviet Union, in such a situation, I am afraid that I will be surprised, even if I am complacent and praise myself, it is possible. Not everyone was able to analyze the situation in the USSR with such precision.

However, Liu Weihong did not have this kind of "frivolous" performance at all, but analyzed the situation of both sides of the Soviet coup d'état from a completely equal angle or even from a higher angle.

The old man has experienced countless struggles and ups and downs in his life, and whether Liu Weihong is boastful or to the point is to the point, you will know when you hear it.

"So, you're not optimistic about this state of emergency committee?"

After a while, the old man asked.

"Not optimistic." The official bar is quick to share with you

Liu Weihong replied in the affirmative.

"They do not control the key figures, they do not control the order in Moscow, they do not control the powerful and propaganda departments, they do not reorganize the existing party and government institutions, and they do not guide the ideological trends of the ordinary people. If such a coup d'état can still succeed, it will be too lucky. Unless Gorbachev gives up on his own initiative, there is no hope of success at all. There is another key figure, Yeltsin. They simply forgot about this man. ”

"Yeltsin?"

The old man asked rhetorically.

Yeltsin was definitely a man of the year in later generations, and the first generation of Russian presidents after the re-independence was unparalleled. But at that time, he was not a character, at least in the eyes of the old man, it was not a big deal. If Yeltsin had been a member of the Politburo of the ruling party in the Soviet Union at this time, the old man might have looked up to him. After all, he was a member of the core leadership of the Soviet Union. However, this person "turned his head into the bones" and voluntarily quit the party, and after holding such a high position in the ruling party of the Soviet Union, he in turn wantonly attacked the ruling party of the Soviet Union and became the so-called "fighter of the people......" in Western countries.

The old man has been loyal to the organization all his life, and the most unaccustomed thing in his life is the "anti-bone boy......

Therefore, as soon as Liu Weihong mentioned this name, the old man was unhappy.

What's more, under the premise that the ruling party of the Soviet Union met and took power, Yeltsin, the so-called president of Russia, had no food and no soldiers in his hands, what role could he play in such a chaotic situation today? It's nice to be able to keep your head.

It is not unreasonable for the State of Emergency Committee to ignore it.

"Grandpa, Yeltsin cannot be underestimated. He is now the president of Russia, and although this president is democratically elected, he should not be taken lightly. When Yeltsin participated in the Russian presidential election in June this year, Gorbachev personally went to the site of the benzene election to cheer up the candidate nominated by another ruling party in the Soviet Union, but he still lost to Yeltsin. It can be seen that this person's appeal in all strata of Russia is very great, and his prestige is also very high. The Emergency Committee underestimated him, which was definitely a huge mistake. ”

Liu Weihong said solemnly. The official bar is quick to share with you

The old man was silent.

Ma Guoping said: "Wei Hong, this Russian president, doesn't seem to have any actual power, right? He has already quit the ruling party in the Soviet Union. ”

Ma Guoping's words cannot be said to be unreasonable. In a country ruled by a single party, the power of the ruling party in the Soviet Union was enormous, penetrating into all strata of the Soviet state apparatus, including in the army. The power of the political commissar in the Soviet army was enormous, even greater than that of the military chief at one time.

Yeltsin, the president of Russia, is called "president" at best, but if he says it is ugly, it is nothing, and he is just making a lot of noise. At present, the hard-liner coup d'état of the ruling party of the Soviet Union has all the state apparatus and state resources in its hands, and Yeltsin is just a "white-handed president...... so what can he do to contend with the state apparatus?

Liu Weihong shook his head and said, "Uncle, the current situation in the Soviet Union can no longer be viewed with normal eyes. It's all messed up, and the army is no exception. The reforms presided over by Gorbachev over the past few years are in fact a complete liquidation of the ruling party in the Soviet Union, and there is absolutely no talk of safeguarding the party's prestige. Now the authority of the ruling party in the Soviet Union is basically gone. The thinking within the army is also very confused, and I guess the lower-level officers and even the senior officers can't see the direction clearly. An army without firm beliefs, and the Diao Emergency Committee, which has no combat effectiveness, cannot control this army, and Yeltsin will have an opportunity to take advantage of it. If he takes the opportunity to take charge of a certain number of troops, and then further controls the various levels of power in Russia, he will become completely uncontrollable. I think that for the Emergency Committee, his threat is not under Gorbachev. In the end, it may be him who will affect the outcome of the situation! ”

Not possible, the face is certain!

Liu Weihong didn't say this sentence.
