This is Serov's first time submitting a security report to Khrushchev, and this will also be a regular part of his work in the future, assessing whether the country is stable and whether there is any dissatisfaction with the Central Committee, especially with Khrushchev himself. It was the interaction between the State Security Council of the USSR and the First Secretary of the USSR and a source of mutual trust between the two sides.

This trust was built on the work of the KGB, which was a powerful organ to control the cadres in the Soviet Union, and to interact with the first secretary, and that the value of the KGB's existence was to the top leader of the Soviet Union. Neither Khrushchev nor Brezhnev would have taken the initiative to change this, because they needed the existence of such a department more than anyone else.

The KGB can be weakened, but it will never disappear, this is a practical need, and to be honest, the KGB's vitality is even more tenacious than that of the Soviet Union, until the later Russian period, when that country was also controlled by a group of security cadres. The person who controls the country has never changed, but he has changed a sign and walked to the foreground openly.

By now, Serov only needs to ensure that he does not have problems, and optimistically estimates that sooner or later the Soviet Union will fall into his hands, because the security cadres know exactly what the country needs, and at the same time, they are the group that knows the changes in the world best.

Komsomolsk was built in accordance with the plan of the industrial center of the Soviet Far East and is a new industrial city, with the total production of industrial products accounting for 80 percent of the total production of the city's sectors of the national economy and 40 percent of the total industrial output of the Khabarovsk Territory. The machinery manufacturing industry, accounting for 60 percent, ferrous metals accounting for 10 percent, and petroleum processing and chemical industry accounting for 12 percent, accounts for the largest proportion in the industrial structure. Machine-building is the basis of the economy of Komsomolsk Amur.

In the reclamation of Primorye, Komsomolsk was the base for large-scale mechanical support, and the Soviet Komsomol mobilized 300,000 Komsomol members to the Far East, and in this reclamation plan, 300,000 Komsomol members will become the main force here.

"What a beautiful scenery here, as our chairman said, it is a good place to have mountains and rivers. To be honest, I wouldn't want to damage the environment if it weren't for the fact that our chairman never made a mistake in judgment. Lieutenant General Serdyuko, director of the General Administration of Domestic Espionage, walked in the grass and sighed a little.

Next to Lieutenant General Serdyuko was the head of the KGB Main Directorate of Border Guards, Colonel-General Zeyanov. It is not surprising that Admiral Zeyanov appeared here, in the long border line of the Soviet Union, the tasks of the KGB border guards were very heavy, unlike Europe and the Caucasus and Central Asia, which were not too lacking in manpower, and in the border areas with Mongolia and China, the Soviet border guards had to undertake a huge workload, and the border military districts in the Far East began to strengthen their armaments on a daily basis as the situation changed.

"Yes, it's actually more developed than Central Asia, and it's a little warmer than Central Siberia!" Wearing a green general's uniform, General Zeyanov is no stranger to the situation here: as the commander of the border guards, he spends a large part of the year patrolling the long borders of the Soviet Union, and many times he does not attend meetings of the KGB presidium.

"The chairman chose a good place, as he said, there is something called stability here, and under normal circumstances, there will be no natural disasters!" Lieutenant General Serdyuko nodded. Before coming here from Moscow, Serov once said that there will be no natural disasters in Primorsky Krai, and the same is true in Northeast China on the other side of the river, once there are uncontrollable natural disasters in this place geographically, then the situation of the entire Soviet Union or the whole of China cannot be seen, this place belongs to a very stable climate, except that the climate is a little colder, and the precipitation in a year is not much or less, and it is very stable every year.

It can be said that except for the attention to snow-melting floods, ice floods and cold snaps, nothing will appear during the planting season suitable for agriculture, and by the way, beware of such a trivial matter as a herd of wild boars, Serov did not order it alone.

Ice floods occur mainly in early spring, when the weather warms and the frozen ice of the northern rivers begins to melt. Because some river sections flow from low latitudes to high latitudes, when the temperature rises and the river freezes, the upstream sections of the lower latitudes are frozen first, while the lower reaches of the high latitudes are still frozen, and the upstream river water and ice are piled up on the downstream riverbed to form a river dam. Ice flooding is also possible when rivers freeze.

"The armament of the border guards here should be updated, I don't know how our chairman is going to deal with this matter. Although the chairman meant to exercise restraint, he should not make our soldiers feel insecure. Admiral Zeyanov said worriedly that although the changes in relations between the Soviet Union and China were not as drastic as in history, as the commander of the border guards, he was one of the people in the Soviet Union who felt the border defense most clearly. The ports of the Soviet Union and China were much deserted compared to the honeymoon period, and the ports and shipping were almost all cooling, which was most evident in Admiral Zeyanov, who often came to the Far East.

"What the chairman means is that if the support provided by Komsomolsk is not enough, we should open our mouth and ask China for support!" Lieutenant General Serdyuko also said with a hint of uncertainty when he spoke, "I don't know why the chairman said this, could it be that the Chinese comrades have been waiting for us to beg them?" ”

"I don't know, is China happy that we asked for help?" Admiral Zeyanov thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll try, in case the Chinese comrades agree to help, it will also speed up our reclamation plan, which is a good thing." ”

Of course, China's bad reputation from the Sino-Indian War must be broken urgently, otherwise it will not start large-scale foreign aid, who doesn't know that large-scale aid will lose money? Only the Chinese are smart? Think that there are no white-eyed wolves in the camp of the United States and the Soviet Union? The white-eyed wolves aided by the Soviet Union were in groups, including Yugoslavia and Albania relatively close, and the disobedient North Korea closer to the Far East, not to mention the group of black uncles in Africa who looked for their big brother once a coup d'état.

The United States also has a group of little brothers who make their heads bigger, such as South Korea, South Vietnam, which are still very pitiful in this era, the Philippines, which has always been very pitiful, Pakistan, which is supported by India, and so on. The Americans are also pinching their noses and resigning themselves to fate, as long as they can resist the vigorous socialist movement, they will pit a little bit......

China, which urgently needs to break the diplomatic dilemma, is not afraid of spending money at this time, but is afraid of being really blocked and out of the world, the latter is the real fatal thing, it is really blocked, isolated by the world, and China will not set off a little wave no matter how much it tosses.

Because in this historical time and space, China's Warring States was larger and did not withdraw its troops, so the situation of being isolated was even greater than in the original history, and in this case, although Sino-Soviet relations were cooling, they were far from being worse than in history. Serov's sacrifice of India was not in vain, and the British said well that the British Empire would not surrender until the blood of the Indian people was dried. This sentence is too correct, not to say that the other side is an old imperialist, Serov recognized this sentence, so he achieved great results, because of the hostility between the southwest and India, even if China and the Soviet Union are impossible to sing an unbreakable alliance in the future, relations will not deteriorate to the point of fighting each other.

The place was occupied, and at the same time China gained a bad reputation and was treated with greater hostility than it was historically. After so many years of cultivation by a great power, and with Britain and the United States waving their flags behind them, China was in unprecedented isolation, and Serov concluded that as long as Primorye opened its mouth, China would definitely come to its aid.

This is something that needs each other, China needs a stepping stone to prove its worth, and go to Africa single-handedly to help, maybe the black uncles didn't believe in China at all at first, there are the United States and the Soviet Union in the world, why do we ask China for assistance? And Primorye, which first came to the aid of the Soviet Union, will make its own sign. Serov estimated that China would surely spread the news of its aid to the Soviet Union, and then take this opportunity to enter Africa.

This stepping stone, Serov cannot directly give China to help China gain a firm foothold in Africa, which will be criticized by other cadres who are wary of China, but he can help China make a name for itself through roundabout operations, and at the same time help himself in the reclamation construction of Primorsky Krai and increase the progress of reclamation.

Even Admiral Zeyanov did not expect that when he asked the Chinese side for assistance, the other party would immediately agree after a short period of time to report, and the degree of simplicity exceeded his own estimates, and his enthusiastic attitude was beyond his own expectations.

"That's why Lao Tzu is the chairman of the KGB! I'm really a genius......" Serov, who was in Moscow, received a telegram from Admiral Zeyanov and Lieutenant General Serdyuko, and praised himself without hesitation......

"Let Lieutenant General Serdyuko work hard, and the local security organs should also pay close attention to construction, and Primorsky Krai will be of great use in the future!" Asked Servanov to call back to the two heads of the Main Directorate, Serov looked at the recent plan statement, ending another working day in the Lubyanka. (To be continued.) )
