Chapter 282: Towards Decline

In the teaching materials on guerrilla tactics distributed to the commanders of the guerrilla units of the People's Liberation Army of various nationalities in the Soviet Union, the headquarters of the People's Liberation Army of the Soviet Union not only explained the essence of guerrilla warfare: the enemy advances and we retreat, the enemy retreats and we advance, the enemy is tired and we fight, and the enemy flees and pursues me. In accordance with the five basic principles of rational selection of combat locations, rapid deployment of troops, rational distribution of troops, rational selection of combat timing, and rapid retreat at the end of the battle, a general introduction was given, and a detailed explanation was given on the specific implementation of each basic principle. In addition, the many guerrilla tactics created by the Chinese in the course of long-term revolutionary practice have played an important role in the victory of the war, such as sabotage warfare, mine warfare, sparrow warfare, assault warfare, ambush warfare, tunnel warfare, and siege warfare, and have fused the new experience, new tactics, and psychological warfare of fighting tanks, planes, airbornes, and helicopters in modern warfare, and made detailed expositions on information warfare, with explanations of successful cases.

The PLA guerrillas of various nationalities, who were active in the vast areas of the Soviet Union, under the guidance of special operations advisers such as the Flying Leopards of the Far East Corps, carried out the guerrilla warfare of the national liberation movement in the new period in full swing. The constant blows and consumption of a large number of the Soviet Union's vital forces pushed the already sluggish Soviet economy to the brink of collapse.

Through the effective strategy of encircling the cities from the countryside, the guerrillas of the various nationalities of the Soviet Union have established large areas of guerrilla areas, constantly expanding the strategic depth of the PLA and the solid base areas on which guerrilla warfare depends for its survival and development. In the guerrilla areas and base areas, the broad masses of the people were extensively mobilized to support the national liberation front and the national liberation army under its leadership. In the liberated areas of the Soviet Union under the leadership of the [***] National Liberation Front, the laws of the Soviet state have been superseded by the laws and regulations enacted by the autonomous national axes of the [***] National Liberation Fronts of the various nationalities. When the Soviet political axe functionaries were expelled from the liberated areas, all the taxes payable to the Soviet political axe were retained by the autonomous national political axe, except for 10 percent which was returned to the taxpayers.

With the continuous development and expansion of guerrilla and liberated areas, many secret "PLA trails, MZD trails" have been opened up in guerrilla zones and sparsely populated areas, leading to China's reliable strategic rear. All kinds of weapons, ammunition, and materials needed by the guerrillas have been continuously replenished through these trails, and various cadres of various types of guerrilla units can also go to China in large numbers for study and training.

The collapse of the Soviet Union was also a great dream for the United States and NATO. Since China has created such a good opportunity, how can the United States let it go.

US Vice President Richard Nixon secretly came to Yenching immediately after the Soviet Union launched a nuclear attack on China and discussed the joint prevention of a Soviet nuclear attack and the further strengthening of cooperation between the two countries and the two militaries. The United States offered $1 billion in "humanitarian aid" to China to compensate for China's losses in the Soviet nuclear attack. In return, China pledged not to carry out nuclear strikes on the European part of the Soviet Union, and provided the United States with all satellite photographs of the Soviet Union's medium- and long-range missile bases throughout Europe.

China has proposed that in order to enhance its air strike capability over the entire territory of the Soviet Union, China is willing to exchange all the data of the BGM-71 Tao antitank missile, a second-generation heavy antitank missile weapon system with tube launch, optical aiming, infrared automatic tracking, and wired guidance, for 10 B52 strategic bombers of the United States.

While the provision of B-52 strategic bombers to China could improve China's ability to strike at the Soviet Union, it could also threaten U.S. security interests. However, in the face of the Soviet Union's huge armored assault group, the United States and NATO are willing to provide a wide variety of launch platforms, which can be launched on vehicles and airborne, and are relatively flexible in use, with a range of 3,000 meters, a warhead diameter of 127 millimeters, a weight of 3.6 kilograms, and an armor-piercing thickness of 600 millimeters. After all, the B52 is not an advanced technology, and China's lack of production may only be a matter of time and strategic need. The lesser of two evils. For this exchange of "software" for "hardware", the United States is definitely noproblem (no problem).

The two sides had a frank exchange of views on the next step of their strategy toward the Soviet Union, and although both sides had their own goals and evil intentions, they had the same idea on the disintegration of the Soviet Union. For this common goal, although the two sides do not share the same heart, they work together. The cooperation is very tacit. In the Baltic Sea of Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania in the European region of the Soviet Union, the armed organizations of the People's Liberation Army (PLA) with the purpose of national reading power have received overt and covert support and assistance from the United States and NATO, and a lot of China's aid has also been sent to these national liberation armies through NATO.

Under such conditions, the reading power movement of the various ethnic minorities in the Soviet Union not only existed in the extremely active internal factor of the Soviet minorities demanding liberation from the centralized rule of the Soviet Union and realizing the national reading power, but also existed in the external objective and suitable international environment actively supported by the two major powers, China and the United States. The PLA of various nationalities in the Soviet Union regarded guerrilla warfare as the main form of operation in the initial strategic stage, combined centralized command in strategy with decentralized command in campaigns and battles, and continued to develop and grow in battle. Finally, the guerrilla warfare was expanded to a large-scale movement warfare with the annihilation of the Soviet army's vital forces, so as to actively create conditions for the complete victory of national liberation.

Faced with this difficult situation at home and abroad, the Kremlin's ruler Nikita Khrushchev felt emaciated.

Khrushchev, who rose and fell in power, from a pauper to the largest ruler of the Soviet Union, was both a Stalinist and an anti-Stalinist, and he was irascible and well-behaved. There were inexplicable antagonisms and contingencies in Khrushchev, and even Khrushchev himself could not understand himself. In his climb to the pinnacle of power, he played a humble and mediocre role. Under Stalin's iron-fisted rule, he pretended to be stupid, which was a safer approach. The reason why Khrushchev was able to achieve such success in playing this role of wisdom and foolishness was not only because it was his mission, but also because of its actual situation. He was never a Marxist-Leninist, he was just a realist, and he wanted what he achieved to outweigh the failures he suffered. He liberated the "ghosts, snakes, and gods" who had been humiliated and subjected during the Stalin period, and brought them back into society. In fact, while he began to destroy the Soviet system established by Lenin and Stalin, he was also destroying the foundations of his own power and the foundations of the Soviet Union as a socialist state.

In the last moments of his life, he said, "They will put what I do on the scales - evil on one side and good on the other." I hope the good will outweigh the bad. "History should evaluate his merits and demerits.

A psychological analysis of Khrushchev by about 20 American psychologists and psychiatrists, directed by the CIA, came to the conclusion that the symptoms of mild mania were almost identical to those of Khrushchev: triumphant, energetic, self-righteous, witty, complacent, emotionally charged in public, particularly sociable, fond of being idealized in the minds of others, eager to work, frivolous in manners, open-mouthed but secretive...... Guilty of offending others, unable to face oneself alone, swaying from side to side with one's thoughts, and lacking a systematic understanding of the problem...... Ambitious and avant-garde in his mind, he is particularly indifferent to general physiological needs such as food and sleep...... Strive to move upward, without stopping, until you are exhausted, and finally your body and mind collapse.

Khrushchev's wife, Nina. Petrovna. Khrushcheva put it more bluntly: "He either went all the way up, or he fell all the way." ”

With regard to such a grim situation at home and abroad after the armistice between China and the Soviet Union, Khrushchev, on the one hand, actively worked to seek peace talks with the Chinese side and resolve the territorial issue between the two countries through politics. On the other hand, he reacted very strongly to the liberation movements of the national minorities that wanted to break away from the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. He warned the leaders of the National Reading Movement: "Don't play with fire, the Soviet Union will never allow such a split to happen." He also ordered the Soviet army to launch an attack on the base areas led by the [***] National Liberation Front of various nationalities in various regions of the Soviet Union, and encircled and suppressed the National Liberation Army led by the [***] National Liberation Front of various nationalities, which led to a protracted full-scale civil war in the Soviet Union, and the decline of the Kremlin was inevitable

At 15 o'clock on October 15, 1959, the Chinese-made "air train" Peace Messenger special plane on which the Chinese Sino-Soviet border negotiation delegation was traveling slowly landed on the runway of Moscow's Sheremetyevo No. 2 International Airport. The head of the Chinese delegation, Vice Foreign Minister Li Dawei, Special Assistant to the Minister of Foreign Affairs Mao Anying, Secretary of the Party Committee of the Baikal Province of China, and Assistant to the Governor of the Province of China Chiang Ching-kuo, slowly stepped off the special plane and met the head of the Soviet delegation for the Sino-Soviet border negotiations, Vice Chairman of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR, and Minister of Foreign Affairs of the USSR Anastas. Mikoyan, Head of the Department of Foreign Liaison of the Central Committee of the CPSU Andropov, First Deputy Foreign Minister of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Kuznetsov. First Deputy Chairman of the State Planning Committee of the USSR Kosygin.

After shaking hands and greeting each other, Mao Anying, deputy head of the Chinese delegation, delivered a speech at the airport.

Dressed in a crisp black and blue tunic suit, he walked up to the microphone and said in fluent Russian in front of many diplomatic envoys and the Soviet crowd who had come to welcome him: "Hello everyone, comrades! On the occasion of the 42nd anniversary of the outbreak of the Great October Revolution, we, the Chinese delegation to the Sino-Soviet border, once again came to the great Soviet Union. On behalf of the Chinese people, I would like to take this opportunity to extend my warmest greetings to the fraternal people of the Soviet Union! The Soviet people are a great people. After the October Revolution, the Soviet people transformed the Soviet Union from a backward agricultural country into a great socialist country that was the first in Europe and the second in the world in 10 years, creating a miracle in the history of human development. Similarly, the Chinese people are also great people, who have created a splendid oriental culture in the long river of human history. The sound of the cannon of the cruiser Aurora brought Marxism-Leninism to China, and the Chinese people chose the road of proletarian revolution, and in 1949 the Chinese people overthrew the three mountains that pressed on the heads of the Chinese people and won the victory of the proletarian revolution. The Chinese people have stood up since then! Under the leadership of China, the Chinese people also spent a short period of 10 years building socialist New China into a modern country with initial prosperity and prosperity. The practice of socialist revolution and socialist construction in China and the Soviet Union has once again proved that the socialist system has an incomparable superiority of the capitalist system. China and the Soviet Union are both socialist countries, and the peoples of the two countries have always supported each other in socialist revolution and socialist construction. In the Second World War, our peoples fought together against the aggression of the German fascists and the Ben-fascists, and I still remember the Soviet comrades-in-arms who fought with me in the battles against Belarus, Poland and the Czech Republic.

The Chinese people will never forget those Soviet comrades who sacrificed their lives for the cause of China's national liberation. With regard to these comrades who have sacrificed their lives, we ask the Soviet political axe to provide us with an explanation of the circumstances of the sacrifice of these comrades at that time, and we will confer on them the honorary title of 'internationalist fighters' in accordance with the regulations of the People's Republic of China on preferential treatment for [***] people, and give these immediate family members of 'internationalist fighters' compensation in kind, a 21-inch color television set made in China. As we all know, for more than 100 years, the imperialist powers have carried out shameless aggression against China, cutting off large swathes of China's territory. It leaves a lot of territorial issues between China and its neighbors. With regard to the sequelae of these imperialist aggressions, China's political government has always advocated a peaceful manner, respecting historical facts, and taking full consideration of the current actual situation to reasonably resolve the border and territorial disputes of various countries. Now only the question between China and the Soviet Union remains unresolved.

The border issue between China and the Soviet Union, a series of unequal border treaties in the past was imposed on the Chinese people by Tsarist Russia. China and the Soviet Union should have taken an equal and just attitude, abrogated the series of unequal treaties imposed on China by Tsarist imperialism, renounced the evil consequences of this aggressive and expansionist policy of Tsarist Russia, redefined the route of the border between the two countries through comradely friendly consultations, and resolved the disputed territorial issues between the two countries. (Applause.)
