Chapter 196: First Vice-Chairman
The great luck in the misfortune is that there is no problem with the grain output of Ryazan Prefecture, and if there is a problem with meat at the same time, the grain output is also a big hole, then Serov can only have one action, kill and bury it, and run away directly after kicking Ryazan Prefecture. Now there is only one aspect of the problem, and there is hope for salvation.
At present, in this 40,000-square-kilometer region, the most counted person is Serov, and it can be said that there is no difference between Ryazan Oblast and the military, at least in the recent past, and the cadres of the entire state government have been detained by him. The chairman of the KGB and the head of the General Directorate of Internal Affairs were arranging for personnel to interrogate, and Serov asked the two police chiefs to pay attention to two points: first, there must be no more torture to extract confessions, and second, the family members of the erring cadres must not be implicated; if these two points appear in the course of the trial, the first reaction of the local cadres will definitely be that the Ministry of Internal Affairs will appear again, which will have a huge negative impact on the KGB.
"A law-abiding trial is enough for these people to be punished by the law, we don't need to play that kind of thing that is behind the times at all, if you two departments can't interrogate anything without torture to extract confessions, I will doubt the ability of the two of you!" This is what Serov said to the chairman of the Ryazan KGB and the head of the Main Directorate of Internal Affairs.
The main river in the Ryazan region, the Oka River, divides it into two parts: the northern part is a forest zone, and the southern part is a broad-leaved forest zone and a forest-steppe zone. The state is very rich in forest resources, and it can be said that Serov is most familiar with the environment of this forestry area, and to be honest, his hometown is far less rich than Ryazan's......
"A group of Soviets whose heads do not turn their heads, it is naturally impossible to count on the forest area to make a fortune, but it is simply impossible to solve the problem of eating. Moreover, the resources and species of Ryazan are much richer than those of my hometown in my previous life, and the area is nearly a hundred times larger, so I can't starve to death if I go into the mountains to live by myself for a year! "Since Serov came, the office of the chairman of the Ryazan KGB has changed, and besides, he and the head of the Main Directorate of Internal Affairs must have been busy recently, so there is no objection to letting Serov borrow it for the time being.
Holding species information and photographs provided by the Main Directorate of Internal Affairs of Ryazan. The first thing that catches your eye is wild boar, wild boar, which has the advantage that other animals do not have, that is, they eat everything. Tigers eat meat, deer eat grass, wild boars eat anything. The most important thing is not to worry about the extinction of wild boars, even if the number of wild boars in the wild is killed to a very dangerous point, as long as they stop hunting for a few years, they will become a scourge again, because wild boars can produce just as much as domestic pigs.
"Let Ryazan's internal guards enter the mountains, inform the cities of Kasimov, Sasovo, Skoping and their subordinate districts, subordinate enterprise units, forestry bureaus, forest farm hunters to prepare weapons, and Ryazan in an area of 40,000 square kilometers. All wild boars over 60 kilograms were killed. Didn't it say that the wild boars of Ryazan had become a scourge, and my solution was to eat them! According to the investigation of the Ryazan Main Directorate of Internal Affairs, there are tens of thousands of wild boars in the entire Ryazan mountain forest, and the number of wild boars has been rising since the Great Patriotic War, and it has become a scourge.
"Also, it's autumn, catch a forest frog for me! Mobilize the elderly and women from all parts of the prefecture to go into the forest areas to pick fungus, mushrooms, pine towers, and fruits. Serov suddenly stopped thinking about it. Feeling that it was still not enough, he said, "In addition to the area of the State Reserve and the Ryazan National Park. Kill all the wild boars I see, the standard is more than 30 kilograms! ”
Once this order is issued, it is estimated that it will be difficult for Ryazan to see the existence of wild boars in recent years, and Serov can't take care of so much, people are almost unable to eat, and it doesn't matter if it destroys the environment, isn't it sick. The fly in the ointment is that there is no large lake in the Ryazan region. This is obviously not as good as his hometown, and if only a large lake existed, Serov would definitely fish the lake.
"A plan is a plan, let you kill you, not let you kill. I'm watching you from Ryazan. There is still a month before the snow is the shortest, within a month to complete the plan to me to complete the meat is not enough to make up for the fish, the salmon of the Oka River must be caught enough for me this year, first put this year in the past, tomorrow will start to develop the aquaculture industry! Serov shouted in the unfilled conference room of the state government, "If you can't complete the task, you will be dismissed." There is only one month, and the dismissal cannot be completed. If you don't have enough meat, you will cut off your own meat and supply it to the country, and let you wine bags and rice bags make false reports......"
On 24 September, the Ryazan Prefecture Party Committee issued a report that in view of the infestation of wild boars in Ryazan, a month-long hunting operation would be carried out, and wild boar meat would be purchased at the price of one-third of domestic pigs.
At the same time, the residents of the prefecture were called on to enter the forest area to pick more than 100 kinds of non-staple food plants in the forest area, including wild fungus, mushrooms, pine towers, wild grapes, etc., and the KGB agency and the General Directorate of Internal Affairs were the first to complete the plan.
"I still have a trip to the Third General Bureau, I'll be back in a month, you two keep an eye on me, I don't want to remove you from your post as soon as I come back!" Serov stared at the head of the KGB and the head of the Main Internal Affairs Service in the Ryazan region, and his words were full of threats.
Before leaving, Serov put out a list of 123 people, including the secretary of the regional party committee, Larionov, chairman of the regional executive committee, Bobkov, the ministers of various departments, the party secretaries of enterprises, the directors of the forestry bureaus, and so on, as well as the names of the criminals who were put on a train and sent to Moscow to await the examination by the prosecutor's office.
The judicial system of the Soviet Union, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Public Prosecutor's Office and the courts, the first two bodies generally decide on cases, and the courts hear them in accordance with the law, and there are few objections to prisoners handed over by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Public Prosecutor's Office, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Public Prosecutor's Office have more real power than the courts.
"Be careful on the road, prevent them from escaping, and don't let these people commit suicide, otherwise people will think that our KGB is playing direct trial again, and a group of people with ghosts in their hearts are afraid that their heads will be taken off by us!" Looking at the train that was about to start, Serov waved his hand to let the officer in charge of guarding these people get on the train, and at the same time commanded uneasily.
"Unless we are killed, all these prisoners will be sent to Moscow, and I promise that nothing will go wrong!" The major in front of him saluted with a respectful gaze, and then boarded the train.
Watching the train slowly move away, Serov gathered his guards and prepared to leave Ryazan, the next stop was Kazakhstan, in addition to investigating the local state farms and factories, he also had to participate in the launch of the Baikonur space launch, and the time was also quite short, and he could not continue to stay from Ryazan.
At the same time as stepping on the train to Kazakhstan, Khrushchev was holding a meeting of the Presidium of the Central Committee, and the appearance of Sherepin as an alternate member at the meeting at which only formal members can appear this time caused a stir of sideways, and many people understood that if the alternate committee became a full member, they would know today that the next person would be Sherepin.
"With regard to the false reporting of production in Ryazan Oblast and elsewhere, I must criticize this unprincipled approach, and at the same time severely punish the cadres of Ryazan Oblast and let them be punished by law!" At the meeting, Khrushchev reprimanded many members, among whom Kosygin received the most responsibility.
Brezhnev and Kosygin all knew that Khrushchev was really angry this time, and he endured the first secretary's spit without saying a word, and the matter was not just a place in Ryazan Prefecture, but Serov himself went there in Ryazan Prefecture, and the KGB's investigation throughout the country quickly exposed the lie that was not difficult to debunk.
In addition to the Ryazan region, the leaders of other regions also resorted to strange tricks. The Republic of the Russian Federation adopted the Decision on the Prohibition of Private Livestock Keeping by Citizens of Cities and Workers' New Villages, forcibly confiscating the livestock raised by 12.5 million urban households in the Republic with a household sideline business and transferring them to collective farms or state farms. Kurgan, Voronezh, Sverdlovsk, Krasnodar Krai and other places have adopted the method of selling the same animal twice. After the livestock is sold to the purchasing stations and included in the acquisition statistics, the collective farms and state farms in these localities are no longer kept by the purchasing stations for a period of time to fatten up and gain weight, as in the past, but are brought back to the collective farms and state farms, where they can gain weight, and after a period of time, they are brought to the purchasing stations for sale and again included in the statistical statements of the purchases.
Many of the methods Khrushchev had never heard of, and he was deeply afraid of them, and since there were many regions involved, he had now begun to feel distrustful of local reports.
"Now we want to know the truth, I want to know what the situation in the entire Soviet Union is now, what we want is true, not in the report!" Khrushchev was furious, glanced at Sherepin and said to the other members of the presidium, "Appoint Yuri?" Yefimovich? Lieutenant General Serov, First Deputy Chairman of the KGB and Commander of the Internal Guard, whose terms of reference include the work of the KGB's Main Directorate of Internal Affairs, while continuing to investigate the meat and food problems in various places. ”
Thirty hours later, Serov, who had become the first deputy chairman of the KGB and commander of the Internal Guard, arrived in Almaty, the capital of the Kazakh Soviet Socialist Republic. Ilyich? Belyaev's eyebrows jumped, and he was relieved when he heard that he was relieved because he participated in the rocket launch at the Baikonur Space Center on behalf of the General Directorate of Military Administration.
