"Chairman, will our actions give the Americans a pretext to attack? You know, tomorrow is the day Reagan takes office. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info"Zinev knows that this is also a factor that Solidarity Poland has always tolerated by the Soviet Union.

"Polish immigrants are nothing compared to Jews in the United States. I want to use this incident to educate the Poles and let them know that even the United States, which is very willing to make trouble with the Soviet Union, divides people into three, six, nine, and so on. Compared to the Jews, the ideas of the Poles were not valued at all. Serov snorted and laughed twice, and said with a cold face, "Do what I say, how to do it, we can wait for the result." ”

January 20 is the day of the inauguration of the President of the United States, and this year's President of the United States is Reagan, a second-rate actor. To be sure, almost everyone doesn't have much hope for the American president. Even the Americans themselves think so.

If there is one person who is an exception, it is Reagan himself, and among the supporters, I have to mention one person, Oscar-winning actress Audrey Hepburn, Hepburn played a huge role in helping Reagan canvass in Hollywood.

People are constantly changing, and so is Reagan. Audrey Hepburn's support for Reagan is very precious in Hollywood, and Reagan was the most active internationalist in Hollywood after World War II, calling for a ban on the atomic bomb and opposing U.S. aid to peanuts, and there is no political topic in which he does not participate. From this time on, however, Reagan's political stance was also quietly changing, he initially did not believe that communism was really that big a threat to the United States, but with the break between the Soviet Union and the United States, Reagan's experience at the Independent Citizens' Committee in Hollywood gave him a new understanding of communist activities in the film industry, and since then his anti-Soviet stance has become more and more solid.

Of course, the most important point, which even Reagan himself would not deny, is that the theorem that the ass determines the head has worked in him. Reagan's agent helped him get a million-dollar contract, which was considered to be a step into the wealthy class, and at that time, the personal income tax rate was the highest in American history, so Reagan did not like the high tax policy of the Democratic Party.

Resisting the excitement of achieving his dream, Reagan began his inaugural speech, first thanking his campaign team, including Audrey Hepburn, who has always been a staunch supporter.

"Today is a very solemn moment for some of us. Of course, for the history of this country, it is an ordinary thing. Government power is being transferred in an orderly manner, as required by the Constitution, and we have been routinely so formulator for two centuries that few people find this anything special. ”

"So as we get started, let's look at the actual situation. We are a nation with a government – not a government with a state. This makes us unique among the nations of the world, and our government has no power other than that conferred on us by the people. At present, the expansion of government power is showing signs of exceeding the consent of the governed, and the time has come to halt and reverse this situation. ”

"The reason why we have been able to achieve great things over the years, and to achieve prosperity that no other people in the world has attained, is that in this land we have made the greatest use of human potential and individual genius more than ever before; It is more accessible and guarantees the freedom and dignity of the individual than anywhere else. The price of this freedom is sometimes quite high, but we have never been willing to pay it. ”

"As we pass from generation to generation in this land, the whole world will see that we are more powerful, and we will once again be a model of freedom, a ray of hope for those who are not yet free."

"Every tombstone here is a memorial to the heroes I mentioned. They gave their lives in places called Beruwood, Argonne, Omaha Beach, Salerno, half a world away in Guadalcanal, Tarawa, Duk Pai Mountain, Changjin Waterfront, and in a place called Vietnam, with its many rice fields and jungles. ”

We were told that a diary was found on his body. The title page reads: My Oath. He wrote the words, "America must win this war." To this end, I will fight, I will save, I will sacrifice, I will endure, I will fight valiantly and will do my best, just as all the problems of war will be borne by me alone. ”

Press the remote and the live broadcast on the TV disappears. This is the capital of the Soviet Union, Moscow, the symbol of the Grand Kremlin. No one would have imagined that a group of Soviet rulers were watching the inaugural speech of the President of the United States.

"He mentioned Changjin Lake, he also mentioned Vietnam, he wants to fight? Why is he? How dare he stand up to us? Defense Minister Ustinov slapped the table and shouted, "Today is 1981, we have already recovered from the death toll of more than 20 million in the Great Patriotic War, our industrial production capacity is larger than that of the United States, and the entire Eurasian continent, we, the Soviet Union, say that this is correct, no one will object, why should this second-rate actor confront us, just rely on him?" ”

Taking a slow sip of water, Serov licked his somewhat astringent lips and said in a long voice, "Today, no matter what the Americans say, I am not afraid of them. Once the Warsaw Pact army is activated, it will reach the Atlantic in two weeks. Throughout Eurasia, we are superior in any respect. With the loss of time, our advantage will become bigger and bigger, and he wants to fight with us? Very well, I want the life of an American this time. ”

"Comrade Tikhonov, let not be a problem with the economic work in the country." Brezhnev, who was silent, suddenly asked another unrelated question, which was addressed to the chairman of the Council of Ministers, Tikhonov. Kosygin has retired for health reasons and is currently recuperating. Tikhonov, the first deputy chairman of the Council of Ministers, officially became the chairman of the Council of Ministers and headed the work of the Soviet government.

"Yes, General Secretary!" Although Tikhonov did not know why Brezhnev suddenly asked this question, this did not delay him from maintaining a submissive attitude, and he was also a cadre that Brezhnev single-handedly raised.

"Hmm!" Brezhnev agreed softly, and suddenly said, "Reagan's inaugural speech did not shy away from war, proving that some remarks that after Reagan came to power, it was impossible to change his anti-Soviet attitude, and the current mainstream is confrontation." The Soviet was not afraid of confrontation, who did he think he was? Okay, let's wait and see. In this case, there must be no problems with the domestic economy, to be able to support the confrontation between the Motherland and the United States, Tikhonov, you have a great responsibility. ”

"I will do everything possible to make the country have sufficient economic strength." Tikhonov seriously assured.

"The National Congress will be held next month, Comrade Andropov, Comrade Chernenko, you prepare the relevant reports, this congress will absolutely the motherland's domestic and foreign policy in the next five years, you two must prepare well." Brezhnev looked at his two main assistants and said earnestly, "This meeting is very important, very important. ”

"Yes!" Andropov and Chernenko nodded their heads, both respectful in their attitudes, without any abnormality.

For a long time, Brezhnev did not continue to speak, as if he was resting, and finally said, "Maybe I will not be able to continue to meet the next opponent, but I will do my best to make the country go further and further." ”

"The victory of this confrontation will inevitably end with the complete defeat of the United States. I've never had any doubts about that. Serov grinded his teeth and said, "Our ideals, the hopes of the people, all fall on us." No matter who it is, which country dares to stand in our way, it will be crushed mercilessly. ”

"We did it!" Brezhnev waved his hand a little tiredly, "I'm tired, I have something important to tell me with a report, dismiss the meeting!" After speaking, Brezhnev slowly stood up and slowly left the conference room.

On 23 January, Serov, on behalf of the Presidium of the Central Committee of the Soviet Union, submitted a report demanding an explanation of the wave of Jewish immigration from Poland in 1968 and asking the Polish government to accept an investigation by other Warsaw Pact countries to deal with some violations of law and violence in the ghettos of that year. Then the GDR, Bulgaria, Romania, and Czechoslovakia followed up and expressed their willingness to help Poland solve the problem, which was very obvious pressure, especially since the person who led the investigation was Serov.

Some overseas Polish groups frequently protested, and even asked Margaret Thatcher and President Reagan to put pressure on the Soviet Union. In an instant, it spread throughout Poland. Some Poles, who knew that the Polish government was under pressure, waited with hope in their hearts.

"They can't wait for anything, and in terms of the importance of Jews and Poles to Britain and America, fools know which side Reagan and Thatcher are on." Serov tilted his head and said, "Continue to put pressure on the Polish government to allow the joint investigation team of various countries to be stationed." ”

Reagan and Thatcher were very willing to make trouble with the Soviet Union, especially just to make a statement that Poland would become a Soviet. But they could not do so, and even the demonstrations and protests of the Poles in Britain and the United States did not appear on the pages of the major newspapers, on the contrary, the vast majority of newspapers overwhelmingly believed that the Soviet Union's move was a just move. Both the British Labour Party and the US Democratic Party said the Soviet Union's responsibility in the matter was alarming.

The flame of hope that had just been kindled by some people in Poland was quickly extinguished by the mainstream media in Britain and the United States. (To be continued.) )
