Chapter 862: Old Boss

U.S. Vice President George W. Bush shook hands with Andropov, who had become de facto general secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, followed by Chernenko, and when Serov arrived, Bush clearly heard the other party being very proficient in English, "When Reagan dies, I will definitely attend the funeral, whether he invites me or not, I will go." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"President Reagan couldn't come because he had other things to do!" US Vice President George W. Bush's answer was very formal, although Secretary of State George W. Bush was very formal. Pratt? Schultz, CIA Director William? Joseph? Cassie and National Security Advisor William Jr.? Clark and even himself persuaded Reagan to attend, but Reagan just didn't.

"He is such a direct person, thanks to Vice President Bush's persuasion, people should have basic courtesy. Although we are enemies! My promise is valid, and I will definitely participate when the time comes. Also, Reagan has early signs of Alzheimer's, which is a kind gift from me......" Serov rolled his eyelids and shook hands with the next national leader. Undisguised hostility......

Vice President Bush's movements stiffened slightly, and he shook hands with Soviet Defense Minister Marshal Ustinov and Foreign Minister Gromyko, sighing slightly in his heart, and the reaction of the Soviet No. 3 man was like waiting for Reagan and the Soviet Union to attack each other for a long time. I hope that the Soviet Union will not fall into the hands of this spy leader in the future, thinking of this, he laughed in his heart, it should be impossible for a spy to be a leader......

Possibly, how impossible! Aren't you Bush the head of the CIA? Serov, who shook hands with Amin, tilted his head and cast a meaningful glance at Bush's figure, "Comrade Amin, congratulations on the progress of the communist cause in Afghanistan, you are the Stalin of Afghanistan......"

"Thank you, friend of the Afghan people, Comrade Serov!" If Amin had only one Soviet friend, it would be the number three man in the current Soviet Union, the owner of the Lubyanka, Serov, the chairman of the National Security Council.

"Comrade Brezhneva, please mourn!" Andropov gave Brezhne's husband and wife a hug and said, "Brezhnev's death is a great loss to our country. ”

Kirilenko, the dismissed secretary of the Central Committee, held Brezhneva's hand and could not hide his grief, even if Brezhnev personally ordered his dismissal, he also regarded Brezhnev as the oldest leader.

"Comrade Brezhneva, please mourn!" Serov bowed his head slightly, his eyes skimmed over Brezhnev's wife, and focused on the more famous daughter and son-in-law of the general secretary. The treatment of the families of the former leaders will soon begin to be dealt with.

There is as much as it should be, and he will not create unjust cases. Serokov and Chubanov delayed him from taking the helm of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, without which the KGB would not be considered complete. Why should the police distinguish between secret police and public police?

Since Brezhnev's death, all this has been doomed, in fact, Serov is quite careful, Zvigon, Zinev, Serokov, according to history, when Brezhnev was alive, should have been cleaned up by Andropov.

How many grievances should not be counted on such an occasion, this is the state funeral of the general secretary, under the gaze of dozens of heads of state, Brezhnev's coffin fell heavily, members of the Presidium of the Central Committee of the USSR stepped forward one after another, to say their final goodbyes to Brezhnev, among the many commissioners, Serov and Ustinov raised their hands and gave a military salute to the already dead Brezhnev, "The proletarians of the whole world unite!" ”

......More than 10,000 Soviet soldiers and policemen solemnly raised their right hands and swore an oath with a military salute, and the atmosphere of the funeral was solemn and shocked everyone present.

"Proletarians of the whole world, unite!" The entire Soviet population in Red Square solemnly swore an oath, and the voice resounded throughout Moscow. Countless Soviet people saw this scene in front of the television and were all moved. After all, the current era is an unprecedented and powerful moment in the history of Russia, and after the news of Brezhnev's death came, everyone no longer cared about all kinds of negative perceptions, and all they could express was respect for this era.

Before the burial, Victoria? Brezhneva kissed Brezhnev on the cheek, as is customary in Russia. As Brezhnev's body descended to the bottom of the dug tomb, the orchestra played the Soviet anthem, the church bells rang, and the Soviet troops present saluted Brezhnev. Then the Soviets held a military parade on Red Square.

Andropov and Tikhonov, who represented the government, as well as representatives of the workers' and the Academy of Sciences, who were politically important, gave speeches expressing their condolences to Brezhnev, and from now on, Brezhnev's era ended.

"The general secretary wants to meet with the Chinese delegation!" Ustinov tilted his head and said to Serov. This general secretary is talking about Andropov, and unless Andropov dies now, it is a foregone conclusion.

"See!" Serov did not squint, the Soviet Union of course welcomed a new rapprochement with China, but it would take time. Andropov thought he had seven more years to deal with these things before his condition deteriorated. But history gave him less than two years.

Some things should be dealt with now, and when Semychasny led the KGB, on the advice of the KGB, a crime of "spreading rumors" was added to the criminal code of the USSR specifically to deal with the surging dissident movement. Freedom of expression needs to be guaranteed by law, and the law should regulate it so that it does not harm the rights and freedoms of others. It is understandable to legislate to punish rumors.

For example, some lawbreakers spread rumors and attack other citizens, slandering the reputation and dignity of the victims, and should be punished criminally. Another example is that some people should also be punished for spreading rumors, fabricating the drug value and toxicity of certain foods, inflating or lowering prices, and disrupting the order of the market economy.

Semychasny's methods were too direct, exactly like the Ministry of Internal Affairs in the thirties, and of course would not be liked by Khrushchev and Brezhnev, but now some drastic measures are really needed to correct the current public opinion. Serov wanted to push this rhetoric to another area, and that was the Internet, which the Soviet Union had focused on. There is indeed a need for the existence of a place like the pig network, and besides, the General Political Commissar is not willing to delay others from earning foreign exchange, right?

Sherepin did not understand the principle of consolidating power first and then promoting his political ideals, so he was marginalized by his colleagues and completely deprived of power. Kosygin concentrated himself in reforms, did not strengthen his ranks, and in the end did not escape the fate of a weak prime minister, and was suppressed by Brezhnev and Suslov together.

And now, the only person who can suppress Serov is Andropov, who thinks he has seven years to live, and as for Chernenko and the Dnipro gang, as long as he can get rid of Shcherbitsky, this political group that Brezhnev focused on cultivating will collapse, and Chernenko is not in his consideration.

"Even now, I still think that if you were the general secretary, you would definitely be much stronger than Brezhnev! Old secretary! "This is the first time Serov has met with Shelepin since his retirement. Xie Lepin's eyes are still sharp, and the righteousness on his body is undisguised, but compared with that year, there have been some vicissitudes in his body.

"But I lost, I lost to Brezhnev, who was not only twelve years older than me, history cannot be assumed. Now I don't have the ability to do things. Xie Lepin smiled bitterly and said, "This is also the reason why I stopped you from taking risks at that time, my subordinates were all dismissed, but I can't say that you lost completely, you are still there." Brezhnev's subordinates are now also suppressed, and he is only a few years later than me. ”

You can control the whole team, and you can rely on the talent of your subordinates. If you can't control your subordinates, you have to do it yourself and show them your excellence and dedication. Sherepin's courage and disdain for detours ruined himself and the hopes of the people of his time. Like he said, he's already lost.

"History is not fair to you!" Serov bowed his head and said, "You have the ability, and Suslov can't find fault with you morally, but you had to leave your job in the prime of life." ”

"Maybe I should have taken the risk of snatching that position when Khrushchev had just retired, as you said. You only have one chance, and if you miss it, you can't get it back. Xie Lepin sighed, stood up and walked to the window and said, "Your status is almost the same as I was now, be careful." It's not over yet, don't follow the same path as me and Beria. The most important thing is not to reach that position, and not to show the power of discord like me and Beria, because everyone will be afraid of the police, and hopefully the next time we meet, you will have been freed from all restrictions. ”

"You have to be better at fighting than others, you are not without advantages, at least in terms of age, you have more advantages than me in the face of Brezhnev at that time, the current Central Presidium, only Andropov is a figure, others, Romanov is okay, others are just average." Before parting, Sherepin thought for a moment and said, "Among the Dnipro gangs, only Serbitsky and Kunaev need to pay attention, don't think that I can't see that Chernenko is not far from death." ”

"Shemichasny has always believed that you have betrayed the interests of our group, but I believe that you will not!" Shelepin's attitude, as he did 20 years ago, is that he has absolute confidence in the cadres he values. At this time, he was still the eagle of the Komsomol and a young leader loved and respected by all the cadres of the Soviet Union.
