"Regarding the security and defense plan during the congress, the KGB's plan is just that." Serov told Khrushchev about the decision of the Central Committee of the KGB, and then waited for orders. Usually in such cases Khrushchev would have put forward some opinions of his own, not so much because of how clever they were, but because it showed that Khrushchev cared about the work of the KGB.

Today, with the exception, Khrushchev clearly had little to offer, and the Congress of the Communist Party and the Workers' Party of the Eighty-One Nations was an opportunity, but also a challenge, from the same socialist power, the country to the east of the Soviet Union. In the last year, Khrushchev has become more and more aware that the Eastern powers and the Soviet Union are in a dangerous stage, and this stage is not the first time he has seen, that is, the stage before the division of the Soviet Union and Yugoslavia, and although the reasons are slightly different, there is no difference in trends.

"Yuri, sit down! You are the most successful cadre of the KGB in the past 10 years, and people say that you are a comrade who can see the international context clearly, how do you think our relations with China will develop? In fact, what I don't understand is, am I not friendly enough to the Chinese? Khrushchev asked with some distress, on many occasions in private, Khrushchev had talked with many comrades about the question of the East, but there was no clear answer.

The problem is that you are too good for China, a mature politician would not do that, and you have to come from India again, since the first secretary is showing some fragility at this time, Serov does not mind being a guest in the center of power in the Soviet Union, but he will definitely not take the initiative to speak out on the issue of China. The first secretary answered when he asked, and shut up if he didn't ask.

"We are friendly enough, but our two countries seem to have different attitudes towards revolution in the whole world. For the time being, this is the biggest problem, and according to the analysis of the statements of the First Directorate on the countries of the East, it can be summed up in the following points: since the 20th Congress, the analysis of our two countries on the issue of dealing with Stalin has become more and more serious, and if my estimate is correct, the matter will be focused on the issue of attacking the Soviet Lao Tzu Party. The problem will be the duty for us to control Eastern Europe. Serov said while thinking, "There is also the issue of attacking the Soviet Union and the United States for a moderate attitude, revisionism. Because of the U2 reconnaissance plane incident, this incident will become a sore ...... for us."

Serov does not have a clear bias towards any one angle, especially the revisionist question that follows, which in his view is a matter of nonsense. Is it true that the middle cultivators of later generations are just talking? Now the Soviet Union has been relaxed and there are some reforms, and China in later generations has done it, and it is taking further steps than anyone else.

Normally, Khrushchev does not hear any valuable discussions, usually he is saying that other Soviet leaders are carrying out, and this situation has become more and more serious since this year, and there are fewer and fewer valuable discussions, and occasionally Serov, who is not even a member of the Central Committee, seriously analyzes the problem. So that Khrushchev had an interest in listening.

"They can't understand why I want to be moderate, the Chinese are very aggressive!" Khrushchev muttered dissatisfied.

"First Secretary. There is an obvious answer to this question, China has been established for 11 years, think about what we were doing when we were founded for 11 years? We were supporting the Northern Expedition of the revolutionary forces in southern China, weren't we? At that time, our idea was to let the proletarians of the world have their own government and overthrow the decadent and backward autocratic government. Serov said very seriously, "And then we also participated in supporting the Spanish Civil War, and it was also our efforts to help our proletarian brothers?" These things have happened very really, so it is easy to understand that the current Soviet Union is a mature country, China is a revolutionary country, our party is a ruling party, and the Chinese comrades are a revolutionary party. Their mentality is very simple and easy to understand, they believe that they can change the world, just like when we were just founded in the Soviet Union, thinking that as a working-class country, if we go around Europe, the oppressed workers of Europe will welcome us as if we were welcoming liberation, when in fact we were hindered in Warsaw, and the Chinese comrades have not yet encountered ......"

"Comrade First Secretary, most of our export revolution has failed, but the greatest success has been in the East, and this is our greatest achievement." Serov quickly finished his analysis, and then sat aside and waited for Khrushchev's own considerations.

"Yes, this is the first time I have heard this kind of analysis, so that China is also in the state we were in before the Great Patriotic War?" The first time Khrushchev heard this kind of analysis about the ruling party and the revolutionary party, mainly because his own intelligence chief compared the history of the two countries, which made it easy for Khrushchev to understand the problem, and the comparison of the two examples made Serov's analysis clear, "But Chinese has fallen into a very risky state, and the most intolerable thing is to attack us......

At least on the surface, the Soviet Union no longer calls for the export revolution, and the current strength invested by China in the export revolution is similar to that of the Soviet Union, but if you think about the comparison between China's economy and the Soviet Union's economy, you can understand how huge China's investment in this area is, Indonesia, Burma, Vietnam, the Philippines, and Malaya in Central and South Asia would not have lasted so long without China's support.

"On the issue of exporting the revolution, as the first deputy chairman of the intelligence and security services, I must admit from a personal point of view that I very much appreciate the approach of the Chinese comrades, especially the success of Indonesia, the number one country in Southeast Asia. But on the second question, it would be very unwise to argue about us and China, because the situation is very different in different countries, and the main force of the revolution in our country is the workers, while there are not many workers in Asia at all, but there are peasants everywhere. Serov replied again, "So every time we debate with the Chinese, we will each gain a group of supporters, which is actually not good for us." If I do that......"

"What would you do?" Khrushchev was not begging Serov, but looking for a way to repel the offensive. As an intelligence chief who cleaned up many of the threats posed by the Soviet Union, some of Serov's ideas are very relevant.

Serov also did not pretend to be a big-tailed wolf in front of the first secretary, and in accordance with Khrushchev's order, Serov put forward a proposal to defuse the offensive, "Judging from the results of these polemics, the Chinese comrades say that we are conservative, and we think that China is radical, and next week's national security and security conference, the Warsaw Pact allies will participate, and I will hold a meeting with the comrades of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Warsaw Pact countries, and first adopt a unified attitude in this regard." It is not difficult to take a discriminating attitude towards the news and arguments of the Eastern comrades, and with the cooperation of the Warsaw Pact countries, the situation is similar to that of our Soviet Union, and the arguments of the Eastern comrades cannot be attractive, as long as we guide them properly, it is not difficult to control! ”

"Very good, I believe the KGB has this ability." Khrushchev nodded with satisfaction and continued to wait for the resolution of other problems.

"On the other issue of the excessive authority of our Party, we can grasp the weakness of the excessive idealism of the Eastern comrades and give the impression that they are a country that has just succeeded in the revolution and has not yet formed a mature country. In the face of any attack on the Chinese side, we must raise our posture and portray the Communist Party of the Soviet Union as tolerating an immature revolutionary party. Serov paused at this point and said, "Actually, my method is very simple, after doing the first two points, I will not fight back against the views of any Eastern comrades, and we will also win." Because things are very simple now, the comparison between the two sides, the Soviet Union is strong, what we say is reasonable, and in turn, because their national strength is not strong, what they say cannot support their arguments......"

"I didn't expect you to still look at this issue so thoroughly, but then again, the last time I visited the United States, you made some predictions before I went to China, and the predictions turned out to be correct." Khrushchev remembered his last trip to the United States, and Serov said some questions before he went to China, and instead asked, "Then how long do you think the problem of Chinese idealism will continue?" ”

"It will not change for at least ten years, and during this period of time, exporting the revolution and liberating the world will be the mainstream ideology of the comrades in the East!" Serov talked for a long time and then went around to his own work, talking about the work of the KGB, "This is not a threat to us, sometimes we can't do things, the Chinese comrades are doing very well, anyway, a new socialist country will still take the initiative to come to us, because our national strength is strong, and we provide more technology and resources than China." ”

Of course, Khrushchev would not change his mind because of Serov's words, but this was the most sincere analysis he had heard in recent times, and he had adopted a method of dealing with the criticism of the Lao Tzu Party and revisionism. Half a month later, Khrushchev really heard these criticisms, and he had to agree with Serov's analysis and be able to deal with them quickly.

"Yuri, your analysis is very valuable for reference, by the way, I have one thing for you to do." Khrushchev whispered an order to Serov, Serov stiffened to accept the order, he now needed to find a time to remove Stalin's body, far from the Kremlin Serov sighed and said, "It's better for me to do it than to be done, at least I respect his ......"
