Chapter 163: Returning Home
"Korensky, you're an old comrade! You have to do one thing tomorrow, the allies of the USSR had almost no tropical countries, which means that we lacked a lot of things that only tropical countries could supply, such as rubber! On the way to the headquarters of the Indonesian Communist Party, Serov was still using the last time to arrange work for Major General Korensky, who was left behind, "We can clearly see the development trend of Indonesia, time is on our side!" The only people who can pose a threat to Indonesia's entry into the socialist camp are the soldiers of the Indonesian Army, so in the coming year you must integrate anti-Bonapartism into the thinking of the Indonesian Ministry of Internal Affairs, and it is best that this is only needed to ensure that our cause will not be frustrated in Indonesia! ”
"Don't worry, vice chairman, we are much better than the Americans in such a thing as theoretical thinking! Personally, I thank you for still trusting us old guys! "Major General Korensky's words definitely mean something, although the internal affairs part was split into two parts without bloodshed, but from the perspective of an insider, the Soviet intelligence system has still suffered great damage, especially after Sherepin took charge of the KGB, if it weren't for Serov trying to misinterpret Shelepin's opinion, the current KGB would have been messed up by the airborne cadres of the Komsomol a long time ago!
From Korensky's point of view, it is natural to see that those cadres of the Communist Youth League are just a group of laymen, and it takes time to study, and seeing the blood loss in the department where he has served for so many years makes Korensky and his people very heartbroken.
"We young people are meant to learn from you, because focusing on speed and omitting the learning process is not advisable in itself!" Serov sighed and said, "Don't blame Chairman Shelepin, he also has good intentions, but he is used to being strong in the Komsomol industry!" Naturally, it cannot be compared with my experience of working in the Ministry of Internal Affairs from Azerbaijan, and there will certainly be no situation in which the Komsomol cadres do not respect you in the KGB! ”
For these veteran agent chiefs. Serov has always been respectful, his work in the Komsomol has been less than a year at best, and although he is also a young cadre promoted by Sherepin from the localities, he prefers to treat people from the KGB as his subordinates, as can be seen from Igor, Leonid and Kudryash. He believed more in the energy of the KGB itself than in Sherepin, and in the cadres of the Komsomol who were promoted by rockets.
This is the first time Serov has taken the initiative to come to such a far place. Compared with previous times, Serov came to Indonesia mainly for two reasons, the first is because the Indonesian Communist Party has been destroyed in history, and the political party that could have become a huge force was finally destroyed by the CIA and the Indonesian Army, and the second is because Indonesia's geographical location and location in the tropics can supplement some of the weak industries of the Soviet Union, Indonesia has become a part of the Soviet bloc, and the sparsely populated Australia is the front line of the United States, which will be under tremendous pressure. It can change the strategic trend of the whole of Southeast Asia.
"It's here!" Seeing the familiar symbol of the sickle and hammer, and the jeep slowing down slowly, Serov knew that he had arrived at the headquarters of the Indonesian Communist Party, and the Soviet Union had come to this day, and it had to be said that it benefited from the October Revolution of that year, and the October Revolution was the internal engine of the Soviet Union's rise to the superpower. Playing capital how the USSR would be an opponent of the United States. Even if the United States alone is not terrible, the Soviet Union cannot deal with the United States, Britain, France, Germany, Italy, and Japan alone. The Cold War was not a matter for the United States and the Soviet Union, and as long as there were allies, they should be allowed to realize their potential, whether they were China or any other country.
The Soviet Union has always had a sense of feeling good about itself, and the biggest problem with this feeling is that it really sees itself as a socialist country, completely ignoring that the current technology cannot build the country they imagined. If the future is described too beautifully, but it always fails to meet the set plan, the people will naturally not buy it! This is also a big problem......
This feel-good mentality can be seen in the words of the leaders of the Eastern countries, who have said that either the east wind overpowers the west wind or the west wind overpowers the east wind. At least put both sides on an equal footing. But Khrushchev directly told the Americans that history is on our side, and we will bury you in the end, completely treating the Americans as people waiting to die. It was not until the Andropov period that the Soviet Union set its goals slightly in line with reality, but Comrade Andropov's health was not very good, and he could not see the day when the Soviets were down-to-earth, and Gorbachev directly caused the Soviet Union to fall from the sky.
The most well-informed group in the Soviet Union, Serov can be said unceremoniously, is the department he serves, the KGB agents who have left a presence in the world, which is why in the later period of the Soviet Union, the KGB's authority has been reduced more and more weakly, but the leaders who have emerged are getting stronger and stronger, because the agents of the KGB group are haunting the world and know what the world is all about, far more knowledgeable than the cadres who have never been out in the country for a lifetime.
With the frequency of contact between the KGB group and the world, although Brezhnev limited his huge power in the later period, he still trained a group of cadres who were very strong in terms of vision and experience.
Serov, who got out of the car, saw the chairman of the Indonesian Communist Party Aidi who came out to greet him, and Serov maintained great enthusiasm for the Indian chairman, and when he came up, he gave the other party a comrade-like hug, and said very enthusiastically, "Comrade Aidi, I should have come a long time ago, and I am also very interested in the work of Indonesian comrades......
The conversation between the two did not need an interpreter, and like the leaders of the Communist Party of many countries of this era, Aidi had studied in Moscow, and although Russian was a little rusty for him now, he had no problem coping with the conversation.
"Haven't we already met? Comrade Serov! Aidi infected the Soviet comrades who were visiting with the joy peculiar to Indians, but Serov was not infected, but thought of another question: if it were not for this obviously right-leaning man as the chairman of the Indonesian Communist Party, would the fate of the Indonesian Communist Party be better, at least not without much resistance, would it not have been wiped out? He himself would not end up being put to death.
While infecting Serov, Aidi did not forget to introduce Serov to other leaders of the Indonesian Communist Party, which was already approaching the number of the Italian Communist Party, and was organizationally no different from fraternal parties in other countries. There should be everything, and I wonder what went wrong with such a complete organizational structure, and I had no ability to fight back in front of Suharto, if Serov hadn't come over to give the Indonesian army a layer of insurance, the Indonesian Communist Party might not be the opponent of the Indonesian military.
The three million Communists have not held out for even a year, but in fact this is the normal situation, and the parties like the Soviet Union and China, which have succeeded in realizing their ideals despite the encirclement and interception, are the minority of the world socialist movement! As for those countries in Eastern Europe, they were completely supported by the Soviet Union, and their roots are far less deep than those of North Korea and Vietnam in Asia! There is no difference between a country that is beaten and a country that is supported.
"With the size of the Indonesian Communist Party, if you are interested, you can find a way to hold the next World Communist Party Congress, Jakarta has such a strong revolutionary atmosphere, and it will be beneficial for us to communicate more with comrades from other countries!" At the headquarters of the Indonesian Communist Party, Serov spoke to the leaders of the Indonesian Communist Party, including Aidi.
"That's a good note!" Serov's proposal aroused great interest among these Indonesian comrades, and the holding of a World Congress of Communist Parties would be attended by hundreds of Communist parties, and this kind of international conference would have a very great effect on the promotion of the Communist Parties of some countries, on the contrary, it was only a matter of face for the Soviet Union! According to Serov's design, the World Communist Party Congress will be held in a different country every year, and it will also be held in a neutral country, and this conference will be used as a weapon to live up to the fact that so many countries will act together.
Serov stayed at the headquarters of the Indonesian Communist Party for a whole day, and at the same time informed the Indonesian side of the progress of the implementation of the Soviet Five-Year Plan, and unilaterally provided some solutions to the problem!
On a private occasion, Serov also found an opportunity and said to Aidi alone, "Chairman Aidi, in fact, I came to Indonesia this time to solve the pro-US military problem, and it seems that the results are not bad so far!" It's up to you to get the Indonesians to accept our ideas, and I have a personal opinion on the PKI's proposals......"
"You can say it directly, General Serov!" Aidi also understood the deterrent effect of the establishment of the Ministry of Internal Affairs on the Indonesian Army, and now it seems that the head of the Soviet secret service came to Indonesia on purpose to solve the problem, and successfully persuaded President Sukarno.
"Don't take the initiative to take military and adventurous actions against the Indonesian military, but be prepared for a surprise attack by the Indonesian army! Although I have not been in Indonesia for a long time, I can also see that Indonesia is now in a dangerous balance! Serov said to the chairman of the Indonesian Communist Party, "Sukarno is pro-Communist but not pro-China, there are some issues that you must be careful with the Indonesian Communist Party, the longer President Sukarno is in power, the more stable your position will be!" I hope these words will be of some help to your Indonesian comrades in their struggle, you must be careful with the Indonesian Army, but do not take the initiative to provoke, time is on our side......"
After the trip to the headquarters of the Indonesian Communist Party, Serov began to hand over the functions of the Soviet delegation to Major General Korensky, and at the same time greeted Shivatoni and Handayani! Prepare and return to Moscow via Irkutsk. (To be continued.) )
