Chapter 444: The Alliance

It is no secret that the Lumumba Peoples' Friendship University received more than 1,000 students from dozens of third world countries, who received ideological and military training instilled by the Soviet Union here, with the aim of training military and political cadres in the third world and expanding the influence of the Soviet Union in the third world. During the Cold War, this kind of behavior of the two camps can only be regarded as a regular move, and even the island of fraud dares to be involved.

Today is the cadet drill of the Lumumba People's Friendship University, Serov came to observe, but he didn't expect Tikunov to also come over to join in the fun, handed over his ID to the guards in exchange for a military salute, put away his ID card that started with K but did not have a number, and entered the university with Tikunov. This university is not accessible to ordinary people, and Serov has always guarded against this group of black and green, so there are many KGB relatives working around the school, and KGB subsidies are given by the KGB in the surrounding shops and many markets, so that the students here can enjoy low prices, which is actually a deception tactic.

From the moment you enter the university, you can see non-Soviet faces, mostly black, a few Middle Eastern and Latino, in the playground is lined up, all kinds of people in different styles of military uniforms are marching in line, Serov and Tikunov did not go to the rostrum, but went to a high platform opposite, looking down on the whole playground.

In terms of area and strength, the Lumumba Peoples' Friendship University ranked among the top in the Soviet Union, and at the same time, the Lumumba Peoples' Friendship University received the largest number of foreign students.

With his hands on the blue-painted guardrail, Serov bent down and looked at the shocking procession below, and suddenly turned around and leaned on the guardrail and said to Tikunov, "Actually, I don't have a good impression of black people, but from the perspective of this university, it is not completely impossible to save, but the situation faced by these students is very difficult, sometimes a person's strength is limited, not to mention the situation in Africa, you know!" ”

Tikunov nodded, he turned out to be also an intelligence officer and also had some knowledge of Africa. The situation in Africa is very complex, and if you look at the borders of Africa, you can see that those borders are certainly not natural. It is difficult to achieve development by dividing the same ethnic group into cross-border ethnic groups along a single border line, and combined with the combined effect of various reasons. Cross-border nationalities are also a big deal, but there are tribal forces under the nation, which is a headache.

"The Ministry of Petroleum Industry wants to go abroad for exploration, I can understand it, but the current timing is not good, in fact, I have the intelligence to find oil resources, but it will take some time to stabilize the results!" Serov lazily leaned against the guardrail and said, "Until we are sure, it is dangerous to send you out!" ”

"What do you mean? Sudan? Are you going to do it to the Sultan? Tikunov himself was a security cadre, and instantly guessed Serov's intentions, "How sure are you?" ”

"Not sure!" Serov was also quite helpless, how could Tikunov ask such a question after leaving the Ministry of Internal Affairs for a long time, and said directly, "But I will do my best to prepare, first of all, to hold the Sultan's communications in my hands." As for the fact that there is not much manpower, there is a battalion of guards that is completely sufficient. ”

Sudan's nominal army is less than 20,000 people, don't look so weak, but in fact it is already a military power in Africa except for North Africa and South Africa, although this is not all the armed forces of Sudan, Serov did not count the tribal armed forces into it, African countries under this kind of military force, even low-level officers have the opportunity to coup d'Γ©tat, no wonder there will be frequent coups, he is more optimistic about the successful outcome of the operation, but the process still has to be careful and careful.

Rather than the question of the coup, Tikunov is more concerned about Sudan's oil reserves, he has left the security system, and now he is the head of the oil industry, and his mentality has completely changed. Serov knew this mentality well, after all, he was also the first secretary of the Komsomol of Azerbaijan, and during that short term of office, Serov did nothing, only did two things, one was to put the unspoken rules of the then secretary Valya, and the other was to observe who was suitable for the development of the oil department at Baku State University.

Baku is the earliest oil base of the Soviet Union, that is the cradle of the Soviet oil industry, although the status has been replaced by the second Baku and the third Baku, but there is still a steady stream of training for the Soviet Union in the oil industry, now many have begun to emerge from the Ministry of oil industry cadres, Serov if a little shameless, many people are counted as his students.

"Sudan has a lot of potential, it's just that we sometimes overlook something! When I first get the Sudan done, establish a solid base and go south, the next step is the Congo. British Africa is the key target of attack, we will not touch French Africa, I believe that even in the face of the United States, the French do not want the other side to reach into their territory, so don't worry for the time being! Serov, who was on the guardrail, looked at the situation below, and felt that the matter was almost over, so he went down with Tikunov to talk to the university leadership.

It is naturally not difficult for the KGB to monitor the ideological movements of these international students, but they intelligence officers cannot monitor so many students here every day, so the school archives and the evaluation of students by Soviet teachers are very important.

After removing the files of all Sudanese students from the university's archives, Serov left the Lumumba Peoples' Friendship University in the midst of the crowd of international students and went with Tikunov to Lubyanka Square 11.

"Don't you notice that these students are a little different from the average black person?" Serov, who got off the bus at Lubyanka Square, asked people to take up the files, walked to the vending machine, took two bottles of kvass and handed them to Tikunov.

"Well, it seems to be a little different mentally!" Tikunov seemed to reminisce and said his judgment, and then the two went upstairs to Serov's office, the construction of the KGB headquarters building had just been completed, and Serov's office had just reached the middle position, and Dzerzhinsky's statue could be seen from the side of his desk.

"Black people are loose by nature, there is no pressure in tropical life, as long as you educate well, it is not that no one can get out, it is just more difficult!" Serov picked up the phone and asked for Chinese food and invited Tikunov to dinner at the KGB headquarters.

If these students who came to the Soviet Union want to say that they are different from their compatriots in China, it may only be in the spiritual aspect. According to the more fashionable words, it is equivalent to playing online games and focusing on intelligence skills, and after the intelligence is added to one, it looks like it is a little darker, and it is barely a normal person.

"Na, this is the resource that the Sultan has discovered so far, and I know you are here for this purpose!" Let Servanov take the statistics of Sudan and hand it over to Tikunov, the largest country in Africa. There are nearly 100 million hectares of arable land in the country, 170 million hectares of suitable pastoral areas, and more than 58 million hectares of forests, with a forest coverage rate of 23.3 percent. Not only is it basically self-sufficient in grain, but also the output of cotton and gum arabic is among the highest in the world. Sudan also has abundant mineral resources that have not yet been fully developed, and the proven mineral deposits mainly include iron, chromium, copper, manganese, gold, silver, uranium, aluminum, asbestos, gypsum, mica, talc, etc. Among them, the reserves of major mineral resources are: about 300 million tons of iron, 9 million tons of copper, 700,000 tons of chromium, and about 9 million tons of silver.

"In terms of potential, Sudan can easily become an agricultural powerhouse as long as the political situation is stable. This place must not be abandoned, there are not many countries in Africa that have such natural conditions, and the desert area of North Africa is a water, and South Africa cannot reach it for the time being. And I believe you also understand what the real problem of the alliance is, our first secretary because the grain production is always in the cordon, every meeting to mention this problem. Bringing over two lunches, Serov said to Tikunov, who was reading the information, "The land in our country is impossible to cultivate for three seasons, and even the land that can be planted for two seasons is very scarce. Isn't grain and meat agriculture and animal husbandry? ”

"It's a pity that there are no oil resources, and this information is almost the same to the Ministry of Metallurgical Industry!" Tikunov put down the document and said while eating, "In that case, when are you going to do it?" ”

"First of all, I will select more reliable people from these international students, and I am ready to make Sudan a socialist country, but if we don't find good people and become a poor country, isn't this a discredit to our ideals? If you make a failed state out of the water, it is better not to act! As for the time, it will be done within a year, and the British Africa Division is touching the pattern of Abboud's activities......" Serov swallowed a few bites suddenly, and then said while burping, "Unless we already have a standard of living that is not inferior to that of capitalist countries, it is better not to attack on a large scale, and pick a few with good potential to test the water first, such as Sudan and Congo, countries with many people and few places and rich resources." Not every country has to be of the same political type as ours! ”

"Also, don't worry, in southern Sudan there is actually a geological discovery that may contain oil, but in order to prevent our enemies from hearing about it, the comrades of the First Directorate did not confirm it. It's ours and sooner or later it's ours! Serov did this to seek supporters. The Ministry of Forestry, the Ministry of Metallurgical Industry, the Ministry of Meat and Dairy Industry, the Ministry of Petroleum Industry, etc., so first of all, let these ministers see the benefits.

This was done in order to find allies to support the operation, and as to why it was sought support, it was simply that the KGB's official full name was the State Security Committee of the Council of Ministers of the USSR, although it was not actually accountable to the Council of Ministers.
