Chapter 236: Sealing the Archives

The Soviet Union had three routes to the south, namely the Dardanelles Strait in the Near East, the Persian Gulf in the Middle East, and Northeast China in the Far East. But warehouses on the Armenian border are already stockpiling up with mountains of ammunition, and in Azerbaijani training camps, old-fashioned KGB counter-cadres are turning Iraqi Communist Party trainees into killing machines dehumanized.

The KGB apparatus of the two republics of Armenia and Azerbaijan were secretly carrying out their plans to deal with Turkey and Iraq respectively, and those who were trained were in absolute secrecy, and as soon as the Americans began to step on mines in Vietnam, the Soviet Union would immediately teach these American doglegs to behave.

Because he knew that Qasem overthrew the Kingdom of Iraq and soon took action against the Iraqi Communist Party, Serov quickly detonated the Iraqi bomb, not giving Qasim a chance to use his army to clean up the Iraqi Communist Party. As for the Turkish side, the situation is slightly more complicated. Because at the moment Turkey has American nuclear missiles. The Soviet Union did have a geographical advantage over Turkey, but this advantage was mutual, in other words, the United States also had this advantage with nuclear missiles.

If you want to take out Turkey's chances in a fleeting way, the first premise is to remove Turkey's missiles, which is a necessary prerequisite, and after this premise is realized, you have to wait for the opportunity. Serov will be like an eagle staring closely at Turkey to make mistakes. If there were U.S. nuclear missiles in Turkey, the Soviet Union would do the same, but if it was controlled within conventional forces, it would have to be dealt with quickly. Turkey's conventional forces are good in NATO, but to compare them with, you must know that the USSR and Turkey are bordering on land, and it is believed that Turkey does not have the protection of American nuclear missiles. In fact, the Soviet Red Army was very willing to play a large-depth assault, just to put into practice the achievements of army building over the years.

It is now the end of 1960, and there is still more than a year before the Cuban Missile Crisis, and we can actually make some advance preparations at present, and we cannot avoid this matter unless Khrushchev ignores Cuba's strategic value. But the point is, how is this possible? If Khrushchev could not see the value of Cuba, it would not be a matter of ability, but of imbecility.

The grain silo of Sudan near the border with Egypt has begun to be shipped, and the Aswan Dam project has just started for a year, and it will not hinder the navigation of the Nile, and the Nasser government in the honeymoon period of the Soviet Union will not block this batch of grain needed by the Soviet Union.

"We have a serious food problem in the country this year?" In fact, since she came to Africa, Valya has clearly found that her husband talks about food the most. As for what other Sudans have, there is less urgency.

"It's really serious to say it's serious, but it's not serious when it's not serious!" Serov looked at it for a while and replied in an ambiguous tone, even if there is no such batch of grain, the Soviet Union will not starve to death, in fact, most of this batch of corn may not become human food, it is not uncommon for people to eat rice and white flour every day, and Serov has not seen anyone who eats corn every day.

Most of this corn, with the exception of a small amount, should be used as food for domestic animals to restore the cattle that had been slaughtered in the Soviet Union for two years because of pompous practices. And the restored livestock will become part of the meat supply, so that the Soviet people will not complain about the reduced meat supply. In other words, the food problem in the USSR was not the same thing as the food problem in the country in general. The Soviet Union did not need food in danger of famine.

Because of the failure of the corn movement, the domestic animals in the Soviet Union had no food, and without food, they would not grow meat, and the people would be dissatisfied if they could not eat meat, which was completely different from not being able to eat without this batch of Sudanese corn. This year's grain production in the Soviet Union should be about the same as in China this year, and according to the KGB, there are currently 180 million people in the Soviet Union.

It is true that agriculture in the USSR was relatively weak. That was compared to the United States, where per capita food consumption was about 1.8 times that of China in 2015, because the Soviet Union had more land, although the average output was far less than that of other countries. In other countries, one hectare yields more grain, but the Soviet Union could grow two hectares. But this crushing posture is useless for the United States. The United States has a smaller population than the Soviet Union, a better environment, and more arable land available than the Soviet Union.

For now, wheat should be planted next year in areas where the corn campaign has failed. After leaving the Nile with his wife, the corn was transported to the Soviet Union, and his trip to Sudan was completed.

"If you weren't with me, I wouldn't have flown there." These were Serov's last words before leaving Egypt. Of course, to Valya, in the last month of 1960, Serov returned to Soviet soil.

When he first arrived in Moscow, the sudden cold almost made Serov uncomfortable, and he had just been choked by the rainy season there from Sudan, and was immediately taught to behave by the cold winter in Moscow. In the Grand Kremlin, Serov reported to Soviet leaders such as Khrushchev, Kozlov, Mikoyan, and Brezhnev on the Sudan's harvest.

"Sudan is the largest country in Africa, and its natural conditions and land are the strongest in Africa. With our relationship with General Aboud, there is no need to worry about it for at least two or three years! Serov read the report solemnly, "Sudan has a small population, and although there is no demographic information, it is estimated that it will definitely not exceed 20 million people. But Sudan's land can be doubled to produce food, and our food problem can be solved perfectly. ”

"If you're in charge of changing the Sultan's color, how long will it take you to prepare?" Kozlov's eyes lit up and he asked eagerly.

"About six years!" Serov's answer was that after the full involvement of the United States in the Vietnam War, the world was not what he wanted after all, and whether the United States had the energy to pay attention to the situation in Sudan was always the first factor that the Soviet Union began to consider, "Sudan is far away from our homeland, and considering that the United States has stronger air power than us, I will never do it until I am completely sure." ”

Everything is prepared from now on, and once the United States is stuck in a quagmire and cannot extricate itself, then Serov will completely empty all the bombs that are now full of bombs in a very short time, and he does not believe that the arrangement of so many countries will not succeed in any of them? As long as the United States did not have the ability to intervene, who could stop the Soviet Union? UK? This empire on which the sun never sets, which is weakening all the time?

However, Serov has time to wait, and a group of people seem to be unable to wait, Poland's Koltzinski has been communicating with Sherepin, hoping that the military aid promised by the Soviet Union will arrive soon, and the third army power in Europe has been a little eager to show its ability to beat the French who were killed by Germany in World War II.

This incident reminded Serov that he sent a telegram to Markus Wolf in the GDR asking if the fake file made by Stasi was ready, and it didn't take long to get Markus Wolf's answer, and it would take some time to complete, after all, there were many fields involved, and the fraud had to be made a little bit like that.

The KGB, represented by Serov, and the Stasi, represented by Markus Wolff, secretly conducted a dirty deal. In addition to the Soviet-German countries, the countries involved in this deal are Poland, which feels good about itself. The thing involved is a famous event in World War II, the Katyn incident. Speaking of which, Serov's predecessor, Minister of Internal Affairs Beria, did this. Coincidentally, since the Ministry of Internal Affairs was merged into the KGB this year, Serov's posts were first deputy chairman of the KGB, commander of the Internal Guard, and member of the NKVD.

How could he allow the KGB, the department he served, to be in danger? Serov made a deal with Marcus Wolf from a private occasion, as long as the Stasi made this thing a little more like, the KGB would help the Stasi become a global intelligence organization, cooperate with the KGB to conquer cities around the world, and would not be limited to a small GDR.

After receiving a telegram response from Markus Wolff, Serov was ready to do something he had always wanted to do. It's not the first time he's done this to destroy all the files of the Katyn incident, he burned the Gulag's files last time. Not to mention the Katyn incident that killed a group of Poles, no matter who asked Serov about this matter, his answer was the same, Stalin was definitely a national hero, he did not let the Red Army soldiers who died in the Polish prisoner of war camp die in vain, as a political commissar of the Red Army, he avenged his soldiers, which is worth learning from any leader.

Picking up the phone and connecting with the head of the archives, Serov thought for a moment and said, "Seal all the archives on the Katyn Forest, the campaign to exterminate the kulaks in Ukraine, and the movement for the urbanization of Kazakhstan in the thirties, and from today anyone who accesses them must obtain my approval." ”

"Yes, Comrade First Vice-Chairman!" Serov was relieved that he understood. It's not that he doesn't dare to admit these things, this is really a system problem, the political structure of the Soviet Union is that the government leads the people, so something must be the fault of the government, if the United States admits it, it is not a big deal, you deserve to die, it means that you do not have the ability to support yourself. The responsibilities of the two governments are different, so the Soviet Union must not expose too much of the dark side, otherwise once the government collapses, it will lead the whole country to hell. (To be continued.) )
