"The Rubyanka is in contact with the Greek Communist Party?" Brezhnev thought and said to himself, war is the last option. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Info This time he also wanted to see what he, the General Political Commissar, was going to do to profit the Soviet Union. Serov has not failed so far, which makes him have some expectations in his heart.

If Constantinople could be incorporated into the Soviet Union while he was leading it, Brezhnev could not help but be thrilled at the thought of such a possibility. The value of his life has been fulfilled, and if there is any regret, it may be that he did not defeat the United States in the Cold War, and the latter is completely dependent on luck, and the dawn of the former has come.

Accomplishing this feat under Brezhnev, he could even quickly surpass Khrushchev and become the leader of the Soviet Union on a par with Stalin. And his reputation was much better than Stalin's, simply the perfect image of the ideal leader of the USSR, and Brezhnev could determine his place in Russian history.

"Ilyich, what made you go to great lengths to support Serov? He has never drawn a line with Sherepin. This is the question asked by his comrade-in-arms Kirilenko the other day, and Brezhnev's answer is also very simple, Constantinople.

Facing the sea in the southwest and northwest, Constantinople is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and at the same time sits on the smoothest and easiest land bridge and the narrowest and difficult waterway in the mountainous Black Sea straits. If the Soviet Union gets Constantinople, it will be like getting the key to the Black Sea straits, and the enemy can blockade the Black Sea at any time, and it can freely enter and exit the Mediterranean. At that time, the Soviet Union's maritime strategy in the Black Sea and the Mediterranean Sea will be fully revitalized and its status as a European maritime power will be truly established.

"As long as Constantinople is taken back, the USSR can integrate the Balkans historically and culturally, and no one can stop us, Yura is right, this is an adventure to change the balance of power between friend and foe. At the risk of nuclear weapons, I am willing to take a risk. "It's not a minute now, and he thinks it's an ordeal.

During the Geneva negotiations, Greece and Turkey blamed each other, and the two sides did not back down from each other. The purpose of the Turkish government's first round of operations was to provide diplomatic deterrence to the Cypriot and Greek authorities in order to achieve a situation in which the Turks and Greeks were divided on the island. However, this proposal was rejected by the Greeks.

On the island of Cyprus, the Turkish army and the Cypriot army are still engaged in fierce battles, and under the cover of the bombing of the Turkish Air Force, the Turkish army on the island, which has reached more than 40,000 people, is pressing on step by step. In the blink of an eye, day by day, the tug-of-war between the two countries continues on the two battlefields of negotiation and war.

In an ordinary apartment in Athens, a man with a distinctly Middle Eastern face knocked on the door, and the owner of the apartment was the general secretary of the Greek Communist Party, Florakis, who had just been released from prison and quickly became the general secretary by virtue of his prestige.

"You are?" Florakis asked with some doubts, he has just been released from prison and has been trying to expand the influence of the Greek Communist Party, and at the same time balancing the two factions of the armed struggle and the parliamentary struggle within the party, it can be said that he is very busy, so he has a guest at his home, which makes Florakis himself very strange.

"Hello, Comrade Florakis, won't you let me in and talk to you?" The visitor was very polite, and spoke a very good amount of Greek, and Florakius nodded at once, and invited the uninvited guest in.

The guest immediately introduced himself, and at the same time took out a letter indicating that this was Khalid, the general secretary of the Syrian Communist Party? Letter from al-Baghdash, "Khalid? General Secretary Baghdash congratulated you on your freedom, and at the same time we would like to talk about the cooperation between the two countries, which is a great thing for both Greece and Syria. ”

"Why are you looking for me?" Florakis held back the excitement in his heart and said, you must know that Greece and Turkey are at war, if Syria, a military power in the Middle East, can stand on the side of Greece at this time, the military strength of the two countries can be as long as Turkey.

"Because we are comrades, General Secretary Florakis, we in Syria have been taken away from the land of a province by the Turks, and President Assad has always kept this in mind, which is why he contacted you through us, after all, we are comrades." The visitor said unhurriedly, "With the help of Syria, Greece can compete with Turkey for a long time, and Cyprus is originally Greek, isn't it?" ”

The words of the Syrian Communist Party member are very clear that Syria and Greece are both victims in the territorial dispute, and their own countries are compared with Turkey alone, and there is a certain gap in military strength. But when Greece and Syria are added together, this gap does not exist.

Syria, as a military power in the Middle East, has 350,000 standing troops, and of course these troops cannot be used to fight all the Turks, but it is absolutely no problem to take out one-third, and there are still many Alawite groups in the territories annexed by Turkey, which is a boost. This is the same as the numerical superiority of the Greeks in Cyprus.

"I understand, but even if our two countries are combined, there is no guarantee that we will win, and the Americans have been putting pressure on us in Greece to live in peace with the Turks." As a Communist Party, Florakis was of course dissatisfied, but after the end of World War II, the Soviet Union did not support the Greek Communist Party because of its lack of strength, so he did not dare to put his hope in the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union is still calling for peace, so he subconsciously ignores the Soviet Union.

"General Secretary Florakis, even if the Soviet Union does nothing, its existence can contain at least 100,000 Turkish troops, not to mention that if we launch an appeal at the same time, the Soviet Union may help us. And? "The Syrian Communist Party member took out a letter from Serov to the General Secretary of the Syrian Communist Party, Khalid? General Secretary Baghdash believed, "You should know that this political commissar in charge of Soviet strategy is very unpleasant to Turkey. ”

This letter was written by Serov, and historically the Greek military government was too cowardly and did not dare to ask the USSR for help under pressure from the United States, so that the USSR had no excuse to intervene in the war, and even if it is still like this, the USSR can find a reason to intervene, provided that Syria and Turkey fight, and the USSR and Syria use a military alliance treaty. At present, it seems that Assad is much bolder than the Greeks, and maybe he can embolden the Greeks.

"Okay, I can do my best to help you." General Secretary Florakis finally nodded, knowing that now the hope was all on the USSR, that the Turkish military was stronger than the Greeks, and that the Americans would definitely be biased towards the Turks.

Sure enough, at the Geneva Conference, Britain and the United States unanimously demanded that Greece recognize the status quo and cease fire to quell this NATO civil war. The KGB's fake propaganda department used the channels of the disinformation department to quickly spread the news throughout Greece, and the new generation of Munich Accords, the betrayal of Greek interests, and so on began to circulate throughout Greece.

The Greek people, who had just overthrown the military junta, once again set off a huge protest, and people poured into the streets, besieged the US Embassy in Greece, and kept throwing stones at it, and Greek discontent instantly spread around the world. The USSR remained silent.

Under such pressure, Konstantin? President Karamanlis announced the withdrawal of the military command system within the framework of NATO.

Although the Soviet Union was silent on the surface, it was secretly in contact with its allies in the Balkans, Bulgaria and Turkey bordered, and Bulgarian General Secretary Zhivkov received Moscow's envoy at his official residence, and first learned Moscow's true thoughts, and the close relationship between Bulgaria and the Soviet Union was recognized, and it was not surprising that he agreed to give Moscow cooperation.

Bulgaria and Greece are also neighboring countries, and almost immediately, a batch of weapons and ammunition was delivered to the Greek Communist Party at the border, and the pro-armed part of the Greek Communist Party never forgot how to shoot.

On September 1, a group of less than 100 Greek communist armed forces, holding their breath in the night, quietly approached the Turkish border posts around the Constantinople area, two o'clock in the morning was the most sleepy time of the day, and the Turkish soldiers standing guard in front of them did not rest, because the current relations between Turkey and Greece were very tense, and as a soldier, he had to remain vigilant.

However, this did not work, and suddenly the gunfire directly knocked him into a sieve, and these Greeks in military uniforms rushed out directly to attack the outpost, and within a few minutes a dozen Turkish soldiers were killed.

A few hours later, Turkey retaliated by shelling the Greek border, killing dozens of Greeks. Greece and Turkey accuse each other of firing first, while the United States hopes that the situation will not continue to escalate and that it will be investigated first. And it is not excluded that a certain country is planning this.

"It's like a dog with a keen sense of smell!" Serov was like he was caught stealing, but it didn't matter. With the KGB in place, the blockade was impossible, and the conflict at the border immediately spread throughout Greece, which by this time had fallen into a frenzy, because the land borders were no longer safe.

Forty percent of the whole of Cyprus had already been occupied, and the greedy Turks were not even satisfied, and now there was no one to stop the anger of the Greeks, and the Greek Wehrmacht began to assemble to the eastern borders.

"We should accept the UN's ceasefire demands, our goal has been achieved, and if it continues, it will be very detrimental to us." Billant? Prime Minister Ecevit addressed the rest of Turkey's ministers.

At this moment, the phone on the table rang rapidly, and Ejvert, who picked up the phone, changed his face drastically, and two Syrian armored divisions crossed the border and attacked Hatay province.

"We want not only the provinces of Hatay, Kiris and Kakiantep, but also ours, and we have the support of the Soviet Union. To recover all Alawite lands. Hafez Assad shouted impassionedly at the generals, causing a cheer.

"Distribute the Sovietgrad battle plan to the three major military districts and the general staff of the Romanian army group, and pay attention to secrecy." Serov let out a long breath. (To be continued.) )
