So far, the Iranian revolution still looks like a religious revolution, except that Khomeini alone has become led by imams and mullahs everywhere. www.biquge.info This is very good, at least it gives Serov a chance to break through, and if these religious people are united, all parties, whether pro-Western or pro-Soviet, will lack some in terms of foundation. Therefore, kill the leaders and break the unity of the religious elements, so that we can be sure of success.

But Serov is increasingly discovering that he now seems to have been observed with a magnifying glass in the West. On the surface, this matter has nothing to do with the Soviet Union, but there are voices saying that it was planned by the KGB, and it seems like this.

Serov had to publicly refute it, "I don't want to answer at all whether the situation in Iran has anything to do with the USSR or not." What I'm trying to answer is another question, which is that most Westerners have hydrocephalus. I, a security officer who upholds Soviet values, would support one religion to seize power in another? Are you newspapers kidding? ”

This map cannon was aimed at the entire capitalist country, and not a single leader would speak like that. In the face of such doubts, Serov replied again, "I am a rebel worker, not a national leader. Maintaining the values of the Soviet Union, Iran is now a problem for the United States, and according to the long-standing American tradition, I think the CIA should consider interfering at this time, as you did more than twenty years ago. ”

Serov disappeared after this statement, and he had a lot to do to ensure that the Soviet Union maintained its advantage in Iran. As soon as it entered a state of civil war, the USSR had to be prepared. Serov had to communicate with Ustinov on this point, preparing military aid on the one hand, and plundering on the other. The issue of military aid is very easy to understand, the civil war is originally a thing that everyone relies on, in addition to their own high morale and can fight, there are also external assistance factors.

External aid was as important as it was during the Cold War, with Iran being a country bordered by socialist Iraq to the west, socialist Afghanistan to the east, and the Soviet Union to the north. Surrounded on three sides by socialist countries, the Soviet Union had an absolute advantage in supporting armed forces with the same values as itself.

There was no more professional person in the USSR than Ustinov himself in this regard, and as for the plunder, Serov was responsible. The Iran of the Pahlavi dynasty was not the Iran that was blocked by American technology after the revolution. Iran in this era, because of the people who suffered the blockade of the Soviet Union, was completely treated like the son of the United States.

Because Iran's population and land are far greater than Israel's, in fact, in a sense, the United States attaches more importance to Iran. This is true both militarily and economically, Iran is a country with a lot of good things, and what period did Iran have a foundation in the atomic energy industry later, of course, it was the period when it did not receive the blockade, that is, the electronics industry and the atomic energy industry exported by the United States.

Iran's economy is growing at an average annual rate of 15 percent, per capita GDP has increased 15 times in 17 years, and the urbanization rate has increased by half. After more than 10 years of rapid development, Iran has initially established a relatively complete light and heavy industrial system, and further began to develop the atomic energy and electronics industries. Of course, this has nothing to do with ordinary people, the hired American executives earn $10,000 a month, and the Iranian workers earn 400 a month, and the most important thing is that Iran has a good relationship with the United States, so there are many American executives in Iran, and it is easy for ordinary Iranian workers to find out.

"Well, some American machines and the latest technology, you take advantage of the chaos of Iranian evidence to plunder, Comrade Andropov will contact the pro-Soviet parties in Iran, and as for me, I will be responsible for directing military aid to Iran. If the Americans come, they will turn Iran into another Vietnam, and they will take this opportunity to kill them and end the confrontation that has been going on for almost 30 years. Ustinov nodded coldly, indicating that he was ready for everything.

Serov also nodded, but he did not agree with Ustinov, and the defense minister was still a little too optimistic. The potential of the United States has not yet been fully realized, and the unemployment rate is still very high, the shadow of the Vietnam War has not dissipated, and it is basically impossible if not to conduct another transoceanic war.

"There are American radar stations in Iran that have been staring at our south, otherwise it would not have taken me more than ten years to accumulate enough military supplies to attack Turkey, and this time it happened to be destroyed together. It is estimated that it will be very difficult for the Americans to help Pahlavi turn the tables this time. Serov smiled and said, "I personally have to thank the Americans for creating the revolutionary conditions, and now it is the turn of us, the Soviets, to take advantage of the revolutionary conditions." ”

Serov is not lying, the conditions for revolution in Iran are indeed created by the United States, and because the United States is a two-party country, the policies of each government are different. In other words, it is relatively fine, although it is not enough to affect a wide range of policies around the world, but each change of office will affect some small countries. For example, the artillery party that lost China was directly cut off by Truman because of its support for Dewey. Of course, it is continuous support, and that kind of parasite-like party will end sooner or later, and the difference between two years earlier and two years later is just that.

Pahlavi replicated the tragic experience of peanuts, in the US election, the king bet on the side of the Republican Ford, and did not want to be the new Democrat Carter. This was embarrassing, Pahlavi hurriedly visited the allies, and for a period of time after that, the US government frequently exerted strong pressure on the Iranian king, believing that since Iran has become a developed country economically, it must have a system that is politically compatible with it. This leads to the need for openness to give Iranian reformists more room to develop. Pro-Soviet and pro-Western parties began to emerge, not to mention the powerful religious power in Iran.

"Every country makes mistakes, and we are no exception." Ustinov looked at Serov with a slight smile and said, "But the mistakes of the Americans are always caught by you, and this is not a good thing." ”

"Can I understand that you're complimenting me?" Serov said in a tone of course refusal, "Then I will accept it!" Any of the forces supported by our USSR have one thing in common, and that is that they are not afraid of war. ”

Pahlavi's royal party name is very familiar, the Iranian Baath Party, it seems that many Middle Eastern countries like to use revival as a name, maybe this is a nostalgia for the long history, but the Baath Party, which claims to have 20 million members, has a low sense of existence so far, which shows that there should be a lot of water in it, how many people does the Iranian president have, and there is a party with the same number of people as the Communist Party of the Soviet Union.

"Yes, as Minister of Defense, I am easily the opinion of Comrade General Political Commissar." The two men looked at each other and smiled, and on the wall behind them, the map of Iran's country stood out.

Serov, who returned to the Lubyanka, called the head of the fake propaganda ministry and instructed, "Spread a rumor in Iran that the Pahlavi Shah has secretly contacted Israel and borrowed the Israeli army to prepare for the eradication of religious forces." ”

Although Iran and Saudi Arabia are the twin pillars of the US Middle East strategy, the relationship between the two countries is not bad after the revolution, but has always been cold. Because Saudi Arabia is nominally part of the Arab world and Iran is a Persian country, the country with the best relations between the Middle East and Iran is Israel, the son of another American.

In all the wars in the Middle East, although Iran has not publicly expressed its position, it has given Israel a certain degree of convenience. U.S. support for Israel was allowed to transit, so this rumor is very solid to spread. It is just to continue to borrow the religious anger that followed Khomeini's death to achieve the goal of destabilizing Iran.

At this time, all kinds of rumors were spreading in Iran, after the last time Savak opened fire on a crowd of protesters, in another city, Amor, a small coastal city on the shores of the Caspian Sea. Rumors spread that Savak had beaten a local youth, so from noon that day, students and youths took to the streets with sticks and stormed the local Savak law enforcement agencies.

The fake propaganda department of the KGB began to fire at full power, and began to create rumors against the audiences of religious forces, pro-Western parties and pro-Soviet parties, respectively, and, of course, statements against the Pahlavi shah. For example, in some channels known only to the royal family, Pahlavi heard that the Soviet Union was very worried about the situation in Iran, and once Azerbaijan became independent in the north of Iran, it would affect Azerbaijanis in the Soviet Union and cause turmoil within the Soviet Union, which was not a rumor.

The fact that a large number of KGB personnel began to openly operate in Azerbaijan indicates that the rubyanka takes this matter very seriously. The importance is real, but at the same time, it also let Pahlavi know not to be afraid of the interference of the Soviet Union, and the Soviet Union is also afraid of the turmoil affecting itself.

Let the Pahlavi Shah have the illusion that the Soviet Union will not overthrow him, and at the same time that the Soviet Union is making frequent moves, the United States is also discussing the situation in Iran, as one of the twin pillars of the Middle East, the Middle East police supported by the United States, and the United States also hopes that the situation in Iran will be stabilized.

At the White House, the heart of the United States, ridiculed by the General Political Commissar and the Secretary of Defense, President Jimmy Carter held the newspaper with a sad face and said, "Pahlavi claims that he has the support of 700,000 troops, all workers and the vast majority of the Iranian people." Why didn't I see any of them? Instead, I saw millions of opponents in the streets around Iran's national religious leaders. (To be continued.) )
