"The amount of work in this population figure is no more than the double line of the Siberian Railway planned by the siege force of your Ministry of Defense!" Serov walked to the side of the two marshals very heavily and said, "Human beings must multiply, newborns are born every month, even the iron soldiers of the Red Army are composed of one individual, and it is not what our country should do to expose ordinary people to the shadow of nuclear radiation, the work of the new settlements must start immediately, now, immediately, Semipalatinsk cannot wait for a day, the people's army is for the protection of the people, not to use nuclear bombs to blow up the people of their own country first......"

"If the two marshals think that there is something wrong with the KGB's handling of this matter, they can immediately submit the report to the Central Presidium for evaluation, and the KGB is willing to accept the Central Presidium's handling opinions!" Serov made a gesture to take the report back as he spoke, causing the faces of the No. 1 and No. 2 figures of the Soviet military to change and press the report directly on the table.

"Yuri, you are generalizing, we didn't know that a nuclear test would cause such consequences, a weapon was produced from scratch, no one knew that the effects would last so long!" Marshal Grechko said with an ugly face, "The responsibility is not only for the Ministry of Defense, and you report directly to the Central Presidium in addition to embarrassing the Ministry of Defense, there is no benefit!" ”

"Yes, no one knew about it at the time, no one cared about it all this time. But now you know, that's 100,000 lives, why don't you find a way to remedy it? Serov asked quite seriously, "In order to avoid disarmament, the Ministry of Defense has organized the combat troops into a huge engineering corps, and the railway troops have also been expanded. ”

When Serov was still the head of the Main Directorate, he dared to threaten the commander of the Caucasus Military District. Now in the face of the two marshals of the Ministry of Defense, they will naturally not back down, not to mention that this matter is the fault of the Ministry of Defense, if it is faced with an expedition team led by a scientist, the Ministry of Defense may not need two marshals to come forward to suppress this matter, but in the face of the KGB, which is also a powerful department, if Serov is determined to embarrass the Ministry of Defense. It will definitely embarrass the Ministry of Defense.

"Yuri, I will transfer an engineering brigade to build a new place of residence for the residents of Semipalatinsk, and at the same time, the area of the nuclear bomb test site will be strictly forbidden to local residents in the future!" Marshal Malinovsky said, "This matter is over, you should not report it to the first secretary!" ”

"I hope you will do what you say, and I will send a force to watch the progress of construction!" Serov took back the report on the nuclear contamination in Semipalatinsk, which he was ready to put away. In case the relationship with the Ministry of Defense is unpleasant in the future, you can still use it to blackmail the other party.

It was only when Serov, the KGB, who had always been unhappy with the Ministry of Defense, left, that Marshal Malinovsky said. "The project for the relocation of the residents of Semipalatinsk was launched as the first project, which was launched at the same time as the double-track project of the Trans-Siberian Railway, as well as the construction of the third Baku oil pipeline. Jointly listed as the first batch of projects to start construction! ”

"This little agent is always giving us trouble!" Marshal Grechko also said helplessly, "But he is really solving the problem, if he stabs directly at the Presidium of the Central Committee, we may be scolded and then solve the Semipalatinsk problem!" ”

"He has already thought about more things than in previous years, maybe this junior of Bagramian has grown up!" Marshal Malinovsky recalled the photo he had just seen and said with trepidation. "The aftermath of the nuclear bomb turned out to be so long, the battle plan of our tank army. It must be guaranteed on the basis of the mechanization of the whole army. Otherwise, it may not be able to withstand the bombing of NATO nuclear weapons! ”

This nuclear contamination will not change the changes in the operational plans of the Soviet Ministry of Defense, and the huge mechanized Red Army of the Soviet Union is the basis of all Soviet offensive plans, and the construction of this aspect will only be strengthened and not weakened. Otherwise, the entire strategic basis of the Soviet Union would no longer exist, and in view of the current strategic environment of the Soviet Union, maintaining the superiority of conventional forces on land is an important factor in balancing the United States, which is also the reason why the Ministry of Defense has an opinion on the disarmament of the First Secretary. Nuclear weapons have not yet caught up with the number of Americans, and they have even cut the army first, which is obviously putting the cart before the horse.

"It seems that the third Baku was discovered by the deputy minister of the oil industry named Tikunov, and this person is also one of Shelepin's friends, is the first secretary a little faster in promoting young people?" Marshal Grechko thought of the present group of young men with a strong presence. I can always think of Shelepin, who is in the limelight at the moment.

After Tikunov entered the Ministry of Petroleum Industry, according to Serov's reminder, he quickly made achievements from the Tyumen region, and with the increasing range of detection, the analysis of oil reserves in the report submitted to the Central Presidium is rising, and has now attracted the attention of the Central Presidium, and Khrushchev has begun to personally inquire about the Tyumen oil fields, and he can't wait to name the new oil field the third Baku. Because of the relationship between Sherepin and Tikunov, Sherepin quickly gained a firm foothold when he first entered the Secretariat.

"Comrade Itvasov, the relocation of the inhabitants of Novaya Zemlya will be left to you, maybe this thing we are experimenting with is a great big guy, it is better to empty the island! We can't afford to make mistakes from the same issue! Serov and Itvasov had a division of labor on this issue, with Itvasov being responsible for relocating the inhabitants of Novaya Zemlya and Serov having another task to do.

It is well known that Big Ivan is a very clean nuclear bomb, cleaner than the nuclear bombs of the same period, but after all, the power of the clean nuclear bomb is there, and Serov does not want the problems encountered by the residents of Semipalatinsk to repeat themselves. At present, Lieutenant General Valendin has begun to inspect the local population, and in a sense, the KGB is currently wiping the ass of the Ministry of Defense.

At this time, Serov had another report in his hand, which he had benefited from working in the KGB, and he could always find all kinds of evidence to justify his actions when needed.

This time, Serov took documents on the effects of nuclear tests on communication equipment and came to Chelyabinsk, which is an important industrial city in the South Urals, but in fact it does not matter whether it is an industrial city or not, the last thing that the Soviet Union lacks is an industrial city, and it is more difficult to find a city without industry. The reason for coming here is very simple, Big Ivan is producing here, and the most authoritative experts of the Soviet Union, such as Korolev and Huasvle, are in charge of development.

After many inspections, Serov, wearing a chemical protective suit, entered a research center, which is the assembly base of Big Ivan, but at present, Serov only sees a shell, and does not see the real value, but this is better, a little less dangerous, in fact, he admires these experts and workers who make nuclear bombs, and he definitely can't be so calm.

"As for the previous nuclear bomb tests, the degree of impact on the communication network is in this document, in all fairness, I have just learned about the development of this giant nuclear bomb, and another Comrade Itvasov, the first deputy chairman of the KGB, has already begun to prepare for the relocation of the inhabitants of Novaya Zemlya, Comrade Korolev, you are looking at the information in this area, it may be helpful for your experiments this time!" Serov stuck his head out of his hazmat suit, and in all fairness, it was not pleasant inside, he was already sweating profusely, but for the sake of his own life, such a small scene was perfectly acceptable.

"Oh, I'll take a look!" Korolev, without exception, maintained a high level of interest in various scientific reports. The favorite thing a scientist does is research, and there is no doubt that Korolev is a typical scientist of this kind.

Korolev took Serov's report and took a quick look at it, and if there was anything that the Soviet scientist was not perfect, it was that his interest in space rockets far exceeded his interest in strategic missiles. It was already 1961, Korolev was not in good health, and Serov was thinking about whether he should find a way to give the scientist a break and live at least two more years.

"It should be the electromagnetic pulse wave that has had a huge impact on the communication network, Comrade Serov, your document is very valuable, so that my research has a clearer idea!" Korolev quickly read the document that Serov had taken, and thanked him randomly, "This nuclear bomb test may have to make some improvements, originally I was going to set a nuclear bomb with a yield of 100 million tons, but this may cause great damage to our alliance, and now it seems that the explosive yield can be appropriately reduced......"

"Electromagnetic pulse waves? Is this energy causing damage to communication networks? Is it technically feasible to specialize in the manufacture of such weapons for the enemy's communications network and to manufacture electromagnetic pulse bombs? "Serov is like a professional agent, maintaining the quality of never asking.

"Electromagnetic pulse bombs? Not a bad name, but maybe we still need some time to study the killing principle of this electromagnetic pulse, and the upcoming nuclear test can be recorded as the most authoritative data, and then we can start studying the electromagnetic pulse! I didn't expect General Serov to know more about this! Korolev's eyes flashed with the discovery of talent, and he seemed to be thinking about whether to teach Serov a hand or two.

"I'm just talking about it!" Serov, who looked embarrassed, changed the topic and focused on the shell of Big Ivan, if Korolev was really ready to teach him, he would definitely be disappointed, in the face of knowledge, Serov has always been unable to straighten his waist. (To be continued.) )

PS: I was supposed to start the Cuban Missile Crisis with a direct and rough introduction, but I didn't expect to almost forget Big Ivan
