"Such a big project? It takes a lot of money! We don't have that much money! Marcus Wolf smiled wryly.

"I have brought some comrades from the advisory department, this is not the GDR's own business, other fraternal countries should help, you don't have to worry about this!" Serov took a deep breath and said, "Don't worry about your own expenses, you have to think about how much our opponents will need to spend in order to maintain the stability of West Berlin if the Three Kingdoms do not give up West Berlin, and the cost of this is dozens of times higher than our current project!" In that sense, we've earned! ”

If Serov completely turns West Berlin into a ruined city, with the self-sufficiency of West Berlin, he can only rely on the Federal Republic of Germany to raise more than a million waste that eats and dies, Serov is completely acceptable!

West Berlin is so little under its jurisdiction that it is certainly not self-sufficient in food. All the necessities of life need to be brought in from the outside world, and after Serov diverted the river, it was impossible for West Berlin to build a power station. If the Federal Republic of Germany is willing to transmit electricity from its own country, Serov is willing to sit back and watch it happen.

The 1.2 million people in West Berlin are like a huge burden on the Federal Republic of Germany, and no one knows how much extra money is spent on taking care of this enclave, in Serov's view, the historical GDR is still too benevolent, and it may be a national relationship after all, but he is different, if the Federal Republic of Germany does not spend a lot of energy to support West Berlin, Serov will definitely make West Berlin worse than Gaza, except for eating and sleeping, life is meaningless.

"It's a big plan, and it involves urban regeneration!" Serov said seriously, "This is a matter for the entire Allies, and the GDR should not be burdened with such a heavy workload alone, now let's talk about the specific question, if the blockade plan begins, how much labor can you use to complete this project......"

"The internal affairs forces plus the militia should be able to mobilize about 11,000 people!" Markus Wolf said without thinking about it that this plan had been brewing on the GDR side for some time, and as an important participant in this plan, at least one of them, Markus Wolf knew everything about his own preparations.

"I can use the Red Banner 214 Engineering Brigade of the Western Cluster!" Serov thought for a moment about the resources in his hand and added, "I can ask for help from fraternal countries through the 11th Division of the First General Bureau, and let the surrounding fraternal countries send construction teams to participate, the wall must be completed within a month, and then the river reconstruction plan, the underground waterway reconstruction plan, and the power grid restructuring plan will all be implemented in turn, if the Federal Republic of Germany does not care about the life or death of West Berlin, West Berlin will definitely be a dead city!" ”

Leaving the Stasi headquarters, Serov found the commander of the 214 Engineering Brigade of the Red Banner, the composition of which is now small in the Soviet Red Army, but there is one in each of the four major clusters. After all, it is the first batch of front-line troops to be put into the battlefield, and in order to ensure the rapid advance of the Western cluster, it is natural to need this kind of troops who pave roads and build bridges in the mountains and rivers, and carry out mine clearance.

The next day Serov received a list from Stasi, which detailed the amount of masonry, barbed wire and steel required to build the wall, and judging from Markus Wolff's list, the GDR had not enough materials to complete the project, and only about half of the project could be completed. ”

Serov admired the efficiency of the GDR, and these guys still retained the tradition of accurate calculations of the Germanic people, even more than his brothers to the west.

West Berlin City Hall, semi-monthly negotiations held today, and the usual difference is that this time from East Berlin there are many more convoys than usual, more than a dozen cars with Soviet flags form a convoy, followed by several military vehicles full of soldiers, the convoy stopped at the gate of the city government, in the fourth car Serov got out of the car and dressed up, yawned and said, "Occupy the nearby commanding heights, other soldiers scattered everywhere at the checkpoints!" ”

With Serov's order, the surrounding soldiers immediately dispersed, and the speed of the movement made the West Berlin policemen in charge of guarding here dumbfounded, and the British who came down to greet the Soviet delegation asked, "May I ask Mr. Petrovich, are you here to negotiate or to demonstrate!" ”

"I'm sorry, this was arranged by Comrade Serov, and I can't do anything about it!" Petrovich shrugged helplessly, pointing to Serov, who was lamenting a few meters away that there were always people who wanted to harm me.

Serov, who yawned several times in a row at the sun, finally sobered up slightly, ignored the surrounding personnel of the United States, Britain and France, and passed between the British reception staff and the Soviet representative Petrovich, and just patted Petrovich when he passed by, "What are you still doing, take me up ......"

Isenmotny and Lukani followed, followed by more than two dozen agents in KGB uniforms, and the group entered the city hall and arrived at the conference room where the negotiations were held. You're not retired yet, but you seem to be older than you were three years ago! Nor is he an ambassador of a prominent country, Comrade Smith......"

This person Serov is very familiar, the US ambassador to Italy in those years, Comrade Smith! Serov recognized him, and he recognized Serov, time turned, when Serov, who supported the Communist Party to power in the First World War in Italy, returned to the Soviet Union and made great progress, and now sits in Berlin as a KGB lieutenant general. Smith is barely working in the government, and this time he is not a negotiator, but only a consultant.

"General Serov, long time no see! It looks like you're doing well in the USSR! "A sentence of Comrade Smith made the old man, who was almost seventy, feel for a while, and he hated this title so much, especially from Serov's mouth.

"Of course I'm doing well, so this time I'm in Berlin to see how the lackeys of imperialism want to perform!" Serov looked at the other side with a gaze that you are all rubbish. Isenmodny came in with a backpack, started a machine, put on a headset and listened for a while, and after a while said to Serov, "Director, there is no surveillance equipment nearby!" ”

"Maybe it didn't start, just leave the machine on! Never underestimate the shamelessness of your opponent! Serov pointed at Sang and scolded Huai, and then turned his gaze to the other side. There are four flags on the opposite side, namely the United States, Britain, France and West Germany, but West Germany should have no right to negotiate and only the right to make suggestions, so Serov did not take it seriously.
