Chapter 372: The Ultimate Mission

"I don't expect you to do a great job, but what about this time? Even if it's to teach these abilities to the younger generations. Today's young people have somewhat forgotten how the anti-anti-terrorist workers do things, not that they are not good enough, but that they lack the psychology to deal with emergencies, which your old comrades have, but the young people of our generation do not! Serov patted the shoulders of the old men and said very seriously.

The number of people killed is just a number, followed by a difference of a few zeros. Northeast India is not a Soviet place, and Serov can let them go. As for whether the work is clean or not, it doesn't really matter. The key is to pass on this deterrent power. The August 19 coup d'état in real historical time and space, when the most powerful coup d'état in the history of the Soviet Union was gathered, and the KGB, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the Ministry of Defense were all there, and the result was like a joke. What's the problem? The leaders of those departments could not even command their own departments.

The few old men who are now in front of Serov seem to be in good spirits and in good health. But the gray hair on the head and the folds on the face have proved that these anti-rebel workers are old. It's not a special case, it's that they're really old. The group of people selected is still in good health. If Serov had been a little later and had not faced up to this problem, he would have really not been able to find it back when these people were dead.

"Who said that the current KGB does not have this trait, and you don't have this trait, first chairman? Our alliance is protected by you and is very safe! "It was the highest rank among the old men, Major General Andorov.

"But I am only one person, and one person cannot form a protective net. In this regard, you veteran anti-anti- We've fought, we've been proud, and now, we've been dormant. Serov answered this question coldly, he is just a person, he can't bear the expectations of these old anti-rebel workers, collective strength is the source of strength, and man is always a kind of group animal.

As for how to carry out this work, in fact, Serov does not need to ask too much, although some of the young people in this group are junior brothers, but he believes that these old anti-rebel workers know how to do it, and this is not the first time, although it has been almost 30 years since the last time, but these people are not Alzheimer's, if you think about it, you will definitely be able to remember how to carry out this kind of work, if you really forget, please think about the slogan of the National Security Council, sniff out and eradicate traitors......

Serov was more concerned about the fact that the environment of Sikkim, which was located in the southern foothills of the Himalayas, was different from most of the landforms in the Soviet Union, and that supply was a problem, both for the Soviet Union and for the United States. Unless it is directly airdropped, this desperate road condition will always be a problem.

"If the Chinese comrades allow, I hope you can contact the Chinese comrades who occupy northeastern India, and it is best to solve the supply problem on the spot. If it doesn't work, you can also let the Sikkim royal family solve some of it. In exchange, we can give hints to the royal family to clear India in some places, but not too obviously. Serov, squinting, put the finishing touches on the arrangement, and if possible, he was not willing to let his men work in a state of lack of logistics.

The United States has no bases in the vicinity, and whether it is from the Gulf region or Southeast Asia, the transportation distance is relatively long. Although the Soviet Union itself is closer, it is also necessary to consider the cost, after all, the Soviet Union did not spend as much as the Americans.

The northeastern part of India is not a plateau, but it is not a high altitude, and most of it is plain. The Chinese soldiers, whose main force was the peasants, should not lack the ability to obtain supplies from the plains. No, they can still farm.

The question of face is not important in Serov's opinion, as the head of the KGB he only cares about the issue of costs and benefits, and in a certain area there are difficulties? Then it depends on what is available in this place, no matter who the other party is, ask for it, what is this? Which is more important, the problem of face or the problem of supply, the big brother of the Soviet Union? The members of the Central Committee thought of the former, and the head of security thought of the latter, and he, Serov, was not a member of the Central Committee, and in the current situation he could only think of the latter.

Seeing what he could do to help the other party, Serov contacted Andropov in China almost every day after coming to India, and he did enough in terms of kindness. Isn't it enough that he, the first vice chairman of the KGB, personally came forward to act as a spy and told China about India's preparations and movements? Another boost is the Sikkim royal family, who does not see that they are in danger of annexation? Are they stupid?

The problem with Sikkim is that they are such a small country that they have no power to resist India alone. Sikkim once pinned its hopes on China, which had defeated India over the border conflict. But in reality, Sikkim's expectations are doomed to come to naught, for the simple reason that China is not strong enough, and the southwest region is the weakest direction of China, even weaker than the northwest region. China simply cannot guarantee the security of Sikkim, and India, although it is also weaker in the northeast, is still much stronger than China.

What's more, India and China, the demand for Sikkim is different, for China Sikkim is just a small country, with or without it, there is not much of a problem. For India, this is a big problem, and Sikkim is a matter of life and death in the northeast of India.

Now the strategic issue of Sikkim has changed somewhat from its original history. Because the northeast of India has lost its occupation, in a sense the problem of the Siliguri corridor has disappeared. If all the places are lost, what's the use of leaving a passage?

The value of Sikkim began to manifest itself in another way, that is, Sikkim became the front line of the confrontation between China and India, with the Chinese army occupying northeastern India to the east and the region bordering India mainland to the west. In other words, Sikkim in the middle, like the fulcrum of a seesaw, is dangerous and safe.

Sending away a group of anti-rebel workers of Major General Antonrov, Serov also has to consider the next part of the plan of action, that is, what he has gained in this Sino-Indian war, although the Soviet Union did not give China support in public, but in China, Andropov and Serov have already given enough goodwill on this issue in New Delhi. Even if China does not appreciate it and thinks that it is wrong for the Soviet Union not to give public support, it should not allow the relations between the two sides to continue to deteriorate.

"General Serov, the commander of the airborne brigade, Colonel Yegrove, is here!" This voice brought the divergent Serov back to his senses and said, "Let Colonel Yegrove come in, our commander must have doubts?" ”

With such an orthodox commander, there will be such a problem. Some issues could not be understood by the commander from a military point of view, and Serov did not lack the patience to explain them to his own people.

"Our problem with China is a problem between allies, I naturally know that the Soviet Union's support is not enough this time, but we can only do this, we have to wait for the timing, and you as a commander should understand how important the timing is. Public opinion is not static, it is subject to change. Serov said bitterly, "We are a big country, but China is not a small country either, there is no question of who let whom, understand?" It's time to go, stop thinking about these questions. ”

Colonel Yegrove's problem was the stiffness of the Soviet propaganda apparatus, which China was right to say that the Soviet Union was dogmatic, and of course this also applied to China itself. Socialist countries have this problem, when it is good, they advertise that the other party wears a pair of pants with themselves, and they can't wait to sleep together every day. When relations deteriorate, propaganda often fails to keep up, and instead of analyzing why relations between the two countries deteriorate, they label them as dogmatism, revisionism, opportunism, and so on. Tell only the result, not the process, this kind of propaganda is quite backward.

During the Cold War, China and the Soviet Union labeled each other, social imperialism and Han expansionism. Later, when I saw it, it was half a catty and eight taels, didn't I say in the eighties, you are not all right, we are not all wrong. In fact, it was caused by a spurious question: Will the Soviet Union invade China? Not at all, the Far East is only a secondary direction for the USSR, will China invade the USSR? No, after all, the military power of the USSR on land can scare off all opponents. But the Soviet Union and China just believed that so much military power of the other side was prepared for themselves.

Sending Colonel Yegrove away, I really doubt how such a commander was promoted. It is still so naïve to have reached this position, how can it be so simple for a country that only fights Chiang's ships and does not fight American ships in the Kinmen artillery battle, and constantly arches the fire on the Cuban Missile Crisis and allows the Soviet Union and the United States to fight a world war.

"First Vice-President, the U.S. Ambassador, Mr. Daniel, is here, and he wants to ask if you have asked about what you promised him?"

Why is it here again? Serov rolled his eyes and ordered, "Let him in!" ”

A week ago, there was an incident in Moscow, and it was because of this incident that Daniel always came to the Soviet embassy to harass Serov, because he knew that only Serov could solve this matter. Here's the thing, an American who learned two sentences of Russian shouted at the KGB headquarters building in Lubyanka Square, saying that the KGB was an executioner, and that Dzerzhinsky was a butcher, that this American really had guts, that this was the ultimate task of the Soviet Union, and that it was done by an American.
