Chapter 233 Treaty of Amity and Cooperation

This may be the result of the junta considering the problem from its own standpoint, from a neutral point of view, it cannot be said that the Sudanese junta is necessarily wrong, the military has always been the most opposed to the national separatist forces, although not all but in general, South Sudan's 600,000 square kilometers of land belongs to the savannah climate, and for a year it has been instilled by Soviet biologists that Sudan itself is in good condition, and as long as it develops a little, it can become a big country that is not weak, etc., this argument makes the Sudanese military convinced, yes, Sudan's basic conditions are the first in Africa, and it should have been a big country with a strong voice.

That's what the generals who hold the military power of Sudan in their hands think so, and the progress of Sudan's agriculture in the past year also shows that the Soviet scientists are not wrong at all, and the achievements made the generals full of confidence. In simple terms, inflated......

Since this year has achieved a bumper harvest, it shows that Sudan is just like the Soviets said, since the basic conditions are so good, then next year should not be much worse, from the military's point of view, the first is to strengthen the army and then eliminate the separatist forces in the south, and kill the black people in the south Sudan can become a veritable African number one territorial power, otherwise this territory number one can only be said on paper.

In fact, this development idea should look for countries that are similar to the history of the Cold War, which should be similar to the development model of the Vietnamese during the Cold War. Vietnam can be said to have been aided by China and the Soviet Union, but Vietnam's economic achievements are not good, and it is even far inferior to the DPRK and the Soviet Union's aid to Vietnam in terms of the type of projects. The largest amount of oil is provided, up to five million tons; followed by grain, 4.5 million tons; In addition, there were 100 million meters of cloth - a joke says that Le Duan asked Brezhnev for help, and Brezhnev said: There are no more items. Please tighten your belts yourself. Li Duan said: Please give the belt of the trousers.

For example, the Sultan now destroyed the South first, and then pinned all hopes on Soviet aid. Counting on the Soviet Union to provide weapons and ammunition to support the Sudanese military's hard work, Serov had only one sentence to comment on this, "Think beautifully......

Even from an internationalist point of view, the Soviet Union did not have such an obligation, and Sudan was not a socialist country, so if Sudan was in power, it would be considered if the Sudan was in power. But General Aboud's junta had no will to let the Soviet Union do this. The reason why the Soviet Union was willing to do this was because the United States was mired in the quagmire of Vietnam and suffered more than the Soviet Union, and the United States did not come to beat the Sudan, so why did the Soviet Union transfuse blood to the Sudan?

To help a backward country with no industrial base is a bottomless pit, especially not to help a country that still feels good about itself and thinks that this is not good, Sudan must have basic industrial capacity, even if it is light industry, and it cannot be turned into a large rural area. Otherwise, the cost of this assistance will be too great.

So Serov was silent for a moment, and taking into account the current stocks of old weapons in the country, it was decided that the original plan would remain unchanged. Continuing to carry forward the spirit of internationalism, he said, "In this way, General Aboud, I have understood what you mean, the Sudanese military's plan to upgrade weapons will be entrusted to us, and at the same time, the support for light industry will remain unchanged, the liberation of South Sudan and the development of the country can be carried out at the same time, and your government population in the north is twice that of the south, and you can continue to complete the industrial support projects of the Soviet Union while fighting the war!" In order to help Sudan there are people in management. I think the Sultan can select a group of officers or people with excellent character and learning to study in the Soviet Union,"

"General Serov. Thank you, the USSR, for its support of our country. Serov's generosity was beyond the expectations of the chairman of the Sudanese Revolutionary Committee, who originally thought that he could only choose between industrial aid and military aid, after all, he was facing a super-powerful Soviet Union and needed the support of the Soviet Union to recover the south, so he did not want to give the impression that the lion was opening his mouth.

Knowing that this was the case, Serov should have used the perceptual abilities that Messing had taught him to perceive General Aboud's thoughts on the day of the negotiations. In this way, there will be no cranky thinking. The reason for insisting on continuing the originally planned aid rather than the bailout aid to Viet Nam was completed on a cost-by-cost basis rather than for the sake of the Sudan.

For a country that has no foundation at all, Soviet aid will not change anything. It is believed that as a channel for transporting Sudanese grain, the Nile River is self-evident as a transportation channel for Sudan, but the transportation capacity is still slightly insufficient, which Serov knows, General Aboud knows, and Nasser knows.

After chatting for a while, Serov left General Aboud's official residence, and like an internationalist warrior, General Aboud waited for his good news, which made the leader of the Sudanese military junta sigh, what a good man......

Serov is definitely worthy of the word good man, a railway can allow the Soviet Union to send Sudanese grain out of the country, and the granary in the north can only solve this year's problems, and if you want to eat Sudanese grain every year, you must have such a railway. Let Sudanese students go to Moscow to study, when they go to a group of ignorant and enthusiastic young people, and when they return, they may become proletarian revolutionaries. It may be difficult for the environment of the Soviet Union to attract Americans, but it is not too easy to attract the people of such a country whose transportation relies on communication and roaring.

Serov, who returned to the Soviet embassy, told the others about this, causing a burst of laughter, of course, in many kinds, and the current laughter of the members of the Soviet delegation is a laugh......

The Soviet Union has always faced the industry of the aid base of backward countries, and it is actually very understandable that it is a completely rural country, even if it can help the Soviet Union, and most of the countries with complete infrastructure and good economy are mixed with the Americans. Most of the countries left to the Soviet Union are countries like Sudan, which are also good and bad, the first is China and India, which can definitely help the Soviet Union once they are developed, but this kind of country is generally difficult to control. From the assessment of the Soviet Union, the development of China and India can help the Soviet Union the most, but it is impossible to have both fish and bear's paws, and if only China and India had no territorial contradictions, there is no need to force the Soviet Union to choose a side.

The second is the Arab countries like Egypt, including Syria, Iraq, and Jordan, but these countries have nothing but oil, and their countries are desert agriculture, which is worse than that of the Soviet Union. The third type is Sudan, a country that not only does not have the above-mentioned advantages, but also has many religious contradictions and ******** in the country. In a sense, there was a better choice, and the Soviet Union did not have to go to such great lengths to deal with such a country.

"Industrial assistance is still necessary, otherwise such a sultan will be of relatively limited help to the USSR, and the railways are also needed, comrades understand the importance of the sultan to our USSR. In terms of potential, this country is the first in Africa, and every achievement we have achieved from this country is a huge help to the motherland. Negotiations will continue tomorrow at noon, and we will try to sign the treaty within one day! "Serov used an executive order to boost the morale of these negotiating comrades.

After speaking, Serov found a telegram from the embassy in Sudan and gave an inexplicable order, "Place an order for China's military-industrial enterprises, and let China's military-industrial enterprises help manufacture 50,000 Type 56 automatic rifles, plus 10 million rounds of ammunition." Later, he gave an order to Major General Leonid at the Aswan military base to get tens of thousands of rifles to be transported to Sudan in an emergency.

A little later, Moscow called back to ask Serov why he placed an order from a Chinese military enterprise, to which Serov replied, "China's Type 5 or 6 automatic rifles cost three times less than ours, and a ship from the Far East to China is still cheaper than ours to load and ship to Alexandria, and besides, Chinese rifles are not like our USSR with a lot of rare metals in them, so there is a slight gap in performance, which is certainly not a big problem, but weapons made purely of steel rust easily in the climate of Sudan, which is simply wonderful, We can order a steady stream of weapons from China to Sudan when the time comes. ”

The Soviet Union has always been willing to spare any resources in the manufacture of weapons, and its masterpiece is the all-titanium alloy submarine. You must know that titanium alloy is not even wasted by the United States, but is only used in fighter jets and astronautics, and the Soviet Union did just that. Technically, if you can't catch up for the time being, start with the material.

In the evening, Moscow replied, "Well done, we communicated with the comrades in the East just after the conclusion of today's 81 st National Communist Party Congress, and received a rather enthusiastic response. But the purpose of the weapons was not told. ”

For Serov, today's small means are just an episode, but later the Soviet Union always out of cost considerations, found that this shortcut is always imported from China and then sold, aroused China's suspicion, and finally found that a few years later, Andropov received a reproachful letter of protest, thinking that the Soviet Union's behavior had ruined the reputation of Made in China, in view of the KGB's somewhat inauthentic work in this regard, Serov directly put the protest letter handed over by Andropov in the drawer, and did not read it at all.

After communicating with General Aboud, the ensuing negotiations were not hindered at all, and the two sides signed a treaty of friendship and cooperation between the two countries very happily, and then General Aboud sent a general to lead Serov to guard the northern grain depot to inspect, and Serov also ordered the Aswan military base to prepare for receiving.

Later, Khrushchev, who was in the Kremlin, received the contents of the treaty of friendship and cooperation, and laughed in front of Kozlov and Sherepin, "This is the most successful operation of the KGB this year, and the price paid and the purpose of ensuring an adequate supply of food for our people are not worth mentioning at all!"
