"Li Duan, Li Deshou, Fan Xiong, Wen Jinyong!" After leaving the residence of General Wu Yuanjia, Yegrove muttered a few names, which he had received an order to focus on. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Before coming to Hanoi, Yegrove met with the largest security cadre of the Soviet Union, the chairman of the KGB, the General Political Commissar of National Security, and General Serov in Lubyanka. At the same time, he received a task to preside over the transportation of Soviet arms to Hanoi, and at the same time try to establish contact with the cadres of the Vietnamese Communist Party at that time.

These were the most important people in Serov's list, and in the orders he received, Le Duan's name was highlighted several times. After arriving in Hanoi, Yegrove learned that Le Duan was the number two man in Vietnam. He was originally the secretary of the Southern Bureau, and is now the first secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam. Once Ho Chi Minh died, Le Duan was the undisputed leader of Vietnam. In fact, Ho Chi Minh himself is more involved in international relations, and he has a good network with the Soviet Union and China, but he actually has little roots in Vietnam.

The relevant information, as well as Serov's own annotations, were recorded in Yegrove's head. When he came to Hanoi, the chairman of the KGB personally handed him something similar to a diary, which clearly listed the work history of these people and whether they were suitable for wooing, which made Yegrove, who did not know much about Vietnam himself, feel that he would see the light of day.

Ho Chi Minh was more of a spiritual leader in Vietnam himself, because he had been in exile for a long time, he did not have many of his own men in his own country, and he himself was appointed by the Comintern, and he was considered a pro-Soviet faction, but this person could not be considered. Because he only has a symbolic role.

Vietnam's politics is clearly divided between the south and the north, with Le Duan being the leader of the southern faction, and the other very influential Vietnamese cadre, Long March, being the leader of the northern faction. The Long March was a recognized theoretician within the Viet Cong Party, but because of the issue of land reform, he had no real power, and since then the northern faction has shown weakness.

Relatively speaking, Long March, Wu Yuanjia, Ruan Zhiqing, Huang Van Huan and others are more friendly to China. Pham Van Dong is the prime minister and foreign minister of the government, easy-going, pragmatic and capable, and has the most dealings with China, and is known as "an old friend of the Chinese people". But he has long been ordered to take a stand, and he is about a neutral. Vu Nguyen Gia was awarded the rank of general in the year of the Vietnamese army, was the secretary of the ******** of the Communist Party of Vietnam, and served as the supreme leader of the Vietnamese army for a long time.

Both are the main leaders of the Vietnamese army, Vo Nguyen Gia and Nguyen Chi Thanh have different ideas on army building, but there is no need to think about this issue now, Nguyen Chi Thanh died of a heart attack, and Vo Nguyen Giap's theory of the Soviet Army will occupy the mainstream.

However, Vu Nguyen Gia is certainly not Le Duan's opponent, and the political situation in Vietnam will inevitably be dominated by the pro-Soviet faction, and the key point is still on Le Duan, and your task is to establish friendly relations with Le Duan.

"The countries of Southeast Asia are too close to China, and the Soviet Union poses no threat to them, and in their hearts they will be pro-Soviet, even if the communist parties of some countries say that we are social-imperialists, as long as we put down our attitude and devote ourselves, they will eventually follow us! Le Duan is a person with strong political ability, and no one in Vietnam is his opponent under the general trend, so this person is the most important! Yegrove muttered to this assertion, feeling that his task did not seem so difficult.

In Serov's view, Le Duan is the Vietnamese version of Brezhnev, which is not only not an exaggeration at all, but also has reservations, in fact, Le Duan received greater support than Brezhnev, Brezhnev still has different groups to contain, Le Duan's opponents have long disappeared, on the contrary, the supporters around him occupy the main positions, only in the military is relatively weak.

Yegrove didn't have much effort, he met Le Duan in Hanoi, and the other party was also very friendly, this was a mutually beneficial thing, Le Duan was a cadre in Vietnam, but he knew that if Vietnam wanted to unify the motherland, it was best to have the support of both China and the Soviet Union, but if he had to choose one of them, he would definitely choose the Soviet Union.

After all, Vietnam is a country under the influence of China, and it is a matter of minutes for big countries to sacrifice the interests of small countries, and if Vietnam cannot be one-sided with China, it must have another backer, otherwise its national security will be unbalanced. In the theory of Oriental strategy, long-distance communication and close attack are an important principle. What made Le Duan most dissatisfied was the Geneva Conference, which gave him a feeling that Vietnam had been betrayed. At that time, once North Vietnam took the opportunity to liberate South Vietnam, there would be no war with the United States at all.

"Our General Political Commissar told me that the victory of the revolution in Southeast Asia could not have been achieved without the joint efforts of Vietnam and Indonesia, and that in the process of driving the United States out of Southeast Asia, the Soviet Union greatly appreciated the sacrifice of Vietnam in the process." Without the support of the Soviet Union and the support of the Soviet Union, the Chinese revolution could not succeed, without the success of China and the support of the Soviet Union and China, the revolution of the Viet Cong would not have succeeded, and if the Viet Cong did not succeed, the revolution in Cambodia and Laos would not have succeeded, and without the success and support of Vietnam and Indonesia, the revolution in Southeast Asia would not have succeeded.

This argument is actually the domino theory mentioned by President Kennedy of the United States, once they cannot prevent the success of Vietnam, and eventually the allies in Southeast Asia will be toppled one after another, and these countries will eventually become socialist countries.

After Stalin, it became the consensus of the CPSU that the Soviet Union would not allow a bloody purge to resolve internal contradictions. This is also in line with the political atmosphere in Vietnam, and Le Duan also appreciates this, and later Le Duan was in power, and did not take action against the pro-China Long March and others.

"Comrade Li Duan, before I came, the General Political Commissar asked me to ask a person, do you know if you know this person?" Yegrove suddenly remembered that Serov had mentioned another person, and his expression was very strange at that time, "This person's name, let me see, is called Pol Pot, it seems to be Cambodian!" ”

"I know him, what's the matter?" Le Duan was stunned for a moment, of course he knew that the general secretary of the Communist Party of Cambodia, this person was not very friendly to Vietnam, and always complained that Vietnam had the habit of Lao Tzu Party.

"It's nothing, I'm just asking!" Yegrove laughed far-fetchedly, and in retrospect, Serov's expression was terrifying. It's like? Inside the KGB, that legendary department is the same.

"When the time is right, we invite him over and find a chance to kill him!" In Lubyanka, Mendelev received an unusual order to pull down his hat, and Mendelev felt that the cold wind in Moscow had come a little earlier this year......

After all, Yegrove is not from a military background, and even if he arranges for him to be the general adviser of Vietnam, the Ministry of Defense will not agree. Serov turned around, he was not thinking about the problem of Vietnam alone, but the attack of the whole of Southeast Asia, which showed that Vietnam's military general adviser might be upgraded in the future, so this was a golden opportunity.

"I'm Defense Commissar Serov, give me Lieutenant General Baghramyan of the Western Cluster!" Serov picked up the phone and said, waited for a while to hear the voice of his cheap big brother, and the two chatted for a while.

The Soviet Union had military forces in Vietnam, belonging to the ground-to-air missile units of the Territorial Defense Forces, stationed around Hanoi. The previous commander of the Territorial Defense Forces, the current chief of the General Staff, Marshal Bilyutsov, was one of the very few military leaders who admired Sherepin and his young group, in fact, it cannot be said that there were very few, and among the Soviet military, only Marshal Bilyutsov himself was quite pleasing to Sereupin, and Marshal Bilyuzov was supposed to die unexpectedly during a visit to Yugoslavia. But many details are different, and this kind of accident is the easiest to change.

Serov did not turn the balance of power between the United States and the Soviet Union upside down, but some accidents were easily affected. Landau did not suffer a car accident and is still a benchmark in the Soviet physics community, Marshal Biluzov did not encounter a plane crash, Marshal Nederin was not killed, and today he is still active in the Soviet military circles.

While the Hanoi government believed that the Americans would eventually become war-weary like the French colonizers of the past, the longer it dragged on, the stronger the Saigon government became. If the involvement of US troops in Vietnam continues for another year and a half, the strength of the National Liberation Front of South Vietnam will be seriously damaged. And as the South Vietnamese army continued to grow, North Vietnam would not be its opponent, even without American intervention.

"President Ho Chi Minh, General Secretary Le Duan, we should use the assistance of the Soviet Union to launch a head-on decisive battle to make the Americans lose confidence and stop the war!" At the meeting of the Central Committee of Vietnam, Vu Nguyen Gia solemnly stated his battle plan, "The United States will hold a general election soon, and through a campaign victory, the American people will understand that the propaganda in the United States for a long time is just an illusion, and not only have we not failed, but we are growing stronger every day......

"The US troops are all stuck in cities and important military towns, and our comrades in the south are everywhere in the vast land of Vietnam, and we will send the military weapons that have been accumulated to the south through the secret passages of Laos and Cambodia, and launch an all-out campaign when the time is right. Wu Yuanjia said everything he thought.

Attack on the heavy fire point of the US Marine Corps at Khe Hill. At the same time, the regular army of North Vietnam and the National Liberation Front of South Vietnam planned a joint attack on all major cities and provincial capitals in South Vietnam. If the U.S. had decided to defend Khe Son base, and the fighting was going on elsewhere in South Vietnam at the same time, the Americans would have found that their front was simply too long. If the U.S. and South Vietnamese forces were forced to fight on all fronts at the same time, they would suffer defeats large and small, which would eventually lead to their catastrophe in Khe Son.

"Xishan? Wu Yuanjia will hit his head and bleed, except that there is no force on our earth that can attack the stronghold of the Americans head-on, and he thinks that he is facing the French army? China is right to say that it is besieging Xishan, but let's not interfere with their own actions, provide more weapons, and let them kill more Americans. At a meeting of the USSR Ministry of Defense, Serov coldly commented, "They themselves are not afraid of the dead, what are we afraid of?" (To be continued.) )
