Chapter 540: The Power of Unity

Serov believes that in the next two years, the cadres of the various factions within the Soviet Union will unite and burst out with the greatest enthusiasm, which may lead to an insurmountable record in the Soviet economy in the past two years. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoBecause from a normal point of view, Khrushchev's actions were like hanging a turnip in front of a donkey. The point is that this turnip is so full of temptation, and in this case the goal of all is the same, to make achievements and give Khrushchev a peaceful retirement.

It doesn't matter whether they agree with Khrushchev's policy or not, as long as the first secretary is reassured to retire, the rest of the people can slowly correct the policy they don't like. Anyway, Khrushchev has been informing the country for so many years, and what is he afraid of in the last two years, as he himself said, in two years, an old man who is already seventy-five years old may prefer to enjoy his retirement.

However, at this time, everyone will make an expression that they are not ready to leave Khrushchev and cannot accept the absence of Khrushchev's leadership, but what they think in their hearts, only they know.

The enthusiasm of the Soviet cadres and the advanced nature of socialism are estimated to be seen by Serov in the next two years. Think of the unity of the cadres of all factions in the Soviet Union, this is the advanced nature of the so-called socialism. From that day on, neither Brezhnev, Kosygin, nor Sherepin were talking about retirement. It's as if they've forgotten about it, when in fact they're all pulling out their best to deliver a satisfactory answer.

Serov also had his own mission, which was to fight alongside France, which was a maverick in Western Europe. However, the basic conditions of the Soviet Union are relatively average, and the foreign exchange reserves of the Soviet Union in this era are only more than some countries such as the Netherlands and Belgium after Britain, France and Germany, so this matter still cannot escape the method of preparing in advance.

The names of the foreign exchange reserve departments of Eastern European countries and the Soviet Union are not all the same, but if it is said that the second largest department of foreign exchange is mastered, Serov knows that the Soviet Union is the KGB, the GDR is the Stasi, and all of them are the intelligence services of various countries, because agents need hidden funds to go abroad, and if you take a bunch of rubles out, the Americans will not accept it.

This time, it was necessary to fight in a joint operation, and to bring together the allies of Czechoslovakia, the GDR, and the Soviet Union. Most people think that institutions like the KGB are very insidious and mysterious, and even participated in a very cruel purge, a large round number, so the whole person does not lose money, it is such an institution. However, in fact, the most important function of the KGB is not to defend a certain leader, but to defend the basic system of the entire country, so they are always trying to find all kinds of truthful information.

For example, they will go around looking at the situation in the country, for example, some human rights are oppressed, or some local instability and poverty problems, they will pay attention, that is to say, they are very eager to have first-hand real information about the Soviet Union, and then hope to provide this information to their central leaders for reference, but whether these central leaders will pay attention to these materials, or how they react to these materials, is not something they can decide.

Serov knew that no normal leader in the Soviet Union would weaken the organization, which always made him feel threatened, because once the KGB was weak to a certain extent, the leader was not in danger. Then the country will be in danger. Therefore, Khrushchev, when Beria had just died, was eager to exterminate the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and finally began to dismantle the KGB. The end result was simply the replacement of the Ministry of Internal Affairs with the KGB.

In the later period of the Soviet Union, there were many national problems, for example, in the various republics, there were many, many ********, which sometimes expanded into some kind of turmoil. So when this turmoil occurred, what the central leaders wanted the KGB to tell them most was whether they had found some reactionary organizations, and sometimes these things might just be a simple outbreak of popular feelings, and maybe the KGB would tell them that maybe there were some problems in our national strategy, but the leaders didn't like to listen to these words, and what the leaders liked to hear was that there must be reactionary organizations in them, so they were forced to create some reactionary organizations.

But for the state, the KGB's style of handling affairs for minor crimes and heavy punishments has indeed been defending the Soviet Union. Serov understood this, so he could only choose to strengthen his department. It doesn't matter if it will be suspicious of others.

Once again, with his friends, Serov went straight to the point, and needed the intelligence organizations of these allies to act together with the KGB to get a piece of the pie in the process of the collapse of the Breston Woods system.

"We in the KGB have already discovered the problem of the over-issuance of US dollars, and I believe that it is not only our country that has been discovered, but from an economic point of view, Western European countries should have discovered it earlier, so we need your help this time." Serov glanced at the people around him, they had already worked together many times. In different countries, the KGB would choose different allies as partners, such as the Stasi in the Federal Republic of Germany, Turkey, and South America. In the United States, the Polish Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Stasi were chosen, and with the increase in the number of cooperation, these intelligence organizations became more harmonious than the armies of various countries.

At least because of so many times of cooperation, the KGB was able to gain the trust of its allies, so Serov just said that the intelligence chiefs of these countries rushed to Moscow all the time. From the long-term cooperation, they have already benefited from it, so Serov's proposal was not opposed at first.

"I would like to specifically investigate the intelligence in this regard, after all, this is not a trivial matter, and I hope Chairman Serov can understand." It was Malakov, chairman of the Bulgarian National Security Council, who spoke. Bulgaria was the closest country to the Soviet Union in the Warsaw Pact, but he still could not join in this cooperative action just because of a word from the Soviet Union.

"It's normal to be careful, you all have your own intelligence organizations, it's just that our countries have relatively little economic exchanges with the United States, and it's normal that they didn't find out earlier than Western European countries, but as long as we pay attention to the news in this area, you can quickly get the answers you want." Serov changed his words and said, "Now the premise of our discussion is what to do when the intelligence is true, don't you pick up the money that falls from the sky?" ”

Everyone nodded, although they were all intelligence chiefs, no one would deny that the KGB's strength was more than one line higher than them, Serov said a little absent-mindedly, "From now on, we have to start preparing, we will all use a year to raise our own funds, at this time, don't hide it, you can exert as much power as you want." ”

"Do you want to start now? Isn't it a little too early. Marcus Wolf asked with some incomprehension, obviously this is also where others are more confused, from the intelligence that Serov came up with, the US dollar over-issuance still needs to go through a period of fermentation, is it too early to prepare.

"You have to know that the world's financial system is built by others, in other words we are playing away. It's always right to be careful, this matter must be kept strictly confidential, and I don't need to teach you about domestic anti-espionage work, right? Serov said with a strong spirit, "I'm sorry, our experts will explain the rest to you, I need to take a break." ”

"How can I feel like my body is hollowed out!" After handing over the topic to the economic experts of the KGB, Serov leaned back in his chair as if he had no bones, this financial attack on the United States, each country has its own considerations, France's goal is to overthrow the hegemony of the dollar, but the franc is not enough to replace the dollar, so France failed miserably. The goal of Britain is to share the hegemony of the dollar, and the pound is not the dollar after all, so what if it succeeds? A solid dollar is not a substitute for the pound, and as long as there is a solid dollar, the scope of the pound will only become smaller and smaller.

And what was the purpose of the USSR? Just cash out gold to earn a difference? As if the value of the ruble in the USSR was smaller than the range of the first two, and the franc and the pound could not beat the dollar, the ruble was less likely. It seems that this offensive will not be able to crush the dollar, and once the financial battle begins, the layout of Iraq should be launched, and the time should be when the United States and Vietnam are in a decisive battle.

Once the relationship between the dollar and gold is completely ended, the dollar will only be a paper money based on American credit, so to speak, a piece of paper. The next step is to make it impossible for the US petrodollar to be established, which of course is still a relatively long time ago.

It's too early to stop the petrodollar, and even the Breston Woods system is not over, and it's too boring to think about these things. The financial power of the Soviet Union, after the United States, Britain and France, was on a par with Germany. But the Federal Republic of Germany uses the European Community to expand its own industries, and in fact has a lot of hidden assets. This also takes into account the fact that after the war, Germany had fairly good relations with the surrounding countries, and a number of potential allies.

The economic strength of the allies of the USSR was not very good, and if the USSR was weak, these Warsaw Pact countries were simply vulnerable. A few days later, the intelligence chiefs of these allies left, and they would use their own means to see if the over-issuance of American currency was true, and soon the news came back, and it was confirmed that Serov was not deceiving them. It's simple, slowly withdraw his own properties in various places, and prepare to follow the big brother of the KGB to pick up money.

Beginning in 1966, the Soviet cadres seemed to have raised their consciousness all of a sudden, and many economic indicators were raised to varying degrees. Serov actually had the illusion that this was the unity of the Soviet people to restore the economy after the Great Patriotic War. (To be continued.) )
