Chapter 226: The Assembly of the Eighty-One Nations

Finland was a pro-Soviet neutral country, and until the collapse of the Soviet Union, Finland looked down on the Soviet Union. This was a means of self-preservation to avoid the Soviet counteroffensive and the Soviet Union decided not to annex Finland and treat it as a country with special relations.

Many of the tightly sealed technologies that the Soviet Union would also try to acquire through Finland, which of course could not be done by Finland independently, just like Serov said, although the capitalists are afraid of the Communist Party, they will never think that the Communist Party's money stinks. Finding the right breakthrough, the Soviet Union could get what it wanted. In Serov's plan, Finland should become a producer of electronic devices, and if it can't, add the GDR and Czechoslovakia, and three countries have appeared most frequently in the various discussions within the KGB: Italy, which has come to power, Finland, which has come to power, and Greece, which is pro-Soviet Finland, and Greece in the Balkans.

Italy has already succeeded, it should not be difficult to achieve the rotation of political parties, Greece and Turkey have a deep blood feud, as long as there are contradictions, there is a chance for the KGB to play, the only difficulty is this small Nordic country that is not very up. Both the Soviet Union and Finland are carefully testing each other's bottom line and carefully adjusting each other's policies.

In the Grand Kremlin, Khrushchev listened to Serov's report while packing his bags. As the first secretary of the Soviet Union who single-handedly organized the KGB, Khrushchev attached great importance to the work of the KGB, no different from Lenin's value of Dzerzhinsky and Stalin's view of Beria. The difference is that the KGB leaders used by Khrushchev must be young, so Khrushchev thinks that there will be no conflict between the ages of the two, and he is very good to young cadres, so naturally he will not worry about the KGB backlash. But that's just how he feels about himself.

"The delegation of the Communist Party of Finland was the last of the European Communist Party comrades we invited to arrive, and now it includes Wadek in France? Comrade Roger, Comrade Torriati of the Italian Communist Party, and Comrade Grozos of the Communist Party of Greece have all arrived, and I have arranged for the comrades to arrive at the hotel where they are staying. Serov also took a moment to glance at the list in his pocket. Please forgive him for not being qualified as a spy leader, after all, there are too many people and he can't remember.

The European direction has always been the main direction of the Soviet Union, and in terms of the importance of the borders of the Soviet Union, it should be arranged in this way in Europe, the Middle East and the Far East, and this side of Europe has always been the focus of the Soviet Union, and the Middle East is the area of greater concern of the Soviet Union. The Far East, on the other hand, is a region that is not usually of great concern. Even at the height of Sino-Soviet tensions, the Far Eastern borders remained secondary. It probably involved less than 30 percent of the Soviet Union's military strength, considering that the weapons and equipment in the Far East cannot be compared with the equipment of the European front, a quarter of the energy should be more accurate, and considering that the Central Asian and Turkestan military districts are also responsible for monitoring the movements on the Iranian side, the period of confrontation with China should be completed by one-fifth of the Soviet military force.

The backwardness of armaments in the Far East is also relative to the mutual preparations of the United States and the Soviet Union, and apart from the United States, the pile of seemingly backward weapons that the Soviet Union has placed in the Far East can still beat all countries. The United States and the Soviet Union have become two monsters during the Cold War. Vietnam and Afghanistan did not resist the strength of the two countries, the United States and the Soviet Union were defeated not so much from the battlefield, but by the international environment, after all, the Soviet Union and the United States, which were stared at by so many countries in this era and carried the banner of democracy and freedom, really couldn't pull down their faces and play with three lights.

So for the Soviet Union, the important things are divided into three levels, the first level is the accident in Europe. The second level is an accident in the Middle East, and the third level is an accident in other directions. Other directions include Asia, Southern Africa, and the Americas.

So even if only the leaders of the European Communist Party arrived, Khrushchev had to come forward, and the banquet was held in the Catherine Hall of the Grand Kremlin, because the Kremlin Great Hall and the Great Hall were not built, and now you can only smell a smell of whitewashed paint when you enter. The Kremlin garrison is responsible for the guards, and Serov is responsible for maintaining the security situation here. Alexei, the head of the Main Directorate of the Secret Police, Andropov, was in charge of the head of the Central Liaison Department, as an assistant to accompany Khrushchev in the reception of these comrades, and other Soviet leaders Mikoyan, Kozlov, Andropov and Sherepin were present.

Not counting the leaders of the socialist countries of Eastern Europe, there were 20 delegations of the Communist and Workers' Parties in Europe, covering almost all European countries. Why almost? Because the Communist Party of the Federal Republic of Germany is currently banned from operating.

Less than half of the parties present at the congress were present, but when they were gathered, even the onlookers felt excited, and those who regarded the Communist Party as a beast of prey were afraid that everyone present would disappear into the world.

As a politician, Khrushchev is not very qualified among the leaders of the Soviet Union, of course, he is definitely better than Goto, but as an ordinary person, Khrushchev has a unique personality that can easily make people resist in their hearts. Later, Brezhnev adhered to the principle of not making a sound, whether it was cleaning up Sherepin internally, or confronting the United States externally, and containing China, he was ready to talk about it first, instead of preparing after saying it like Khrushchev, of course, this may also be a lesson from Khrushchev's confrontation with the United States in Cuba if he was not ready, which made Brezhnev have a better memory.

Khrushchev very warmly wished these guests a happy time in Moscow, and with his constant expression of anger, his speech was actually very contagious, and there was a kind of simplicity that belonged to the peasants, which was easily acceptable. Then Mikoyan announced the beginning of the banquet, and Serov looked at Khrushchev, who was about to exchange glasses with the leaders of the communist parties, and nodded lightly to the waiters in the hall, and received the response he deserved.

The waiter in a red vest and bow tie carried a wine glass to Khrushchev's side, given that Khrushchev was not young, excessive alcohol was obviously not suitable for this old man, so once there was an occasion for this kind of banquet, the agents of the Ninth General Directorate would replace Khrushchev's wine glass, the new wine glass was specially made by the General Administration of Technology, and the thickened mouth of the cup was the same as an ordinary wine glass, with complex patterns carved on the outside, which reflected a hazy sense as a whole, even if it was face-to-face, it could block the other party's sight, No one could see that there was something wrong with Khrushchev's glass.

"Italy's success gives us a model of peaceful transition to socialism!" Khrushchev did not hesitate to joke with Italian Prime Minister Paremiro Torriatti, this is not the first time the two have met, the two have already met at the last Congress of the Communist Party of 51 Nations.

Parimiro Torgliati with a red wine was also a star in the hall, and the Italian Communist Party, the first communist party to come to power through parliamentary struggle, undoubtedly set an example for these European communists.

"It's obviously my credit!" Serov is not far away from them, and at this time there is a feeling that your name is unknown, and your deeds live on forever. So soon he himself became as great as the martyrs on the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier of the USSR?

After all, he is a spy leader, so naturally he can't tell what he did in Italy, since everyone thinks that it is the credit of Parimiro Torriati, then forget it! Shaking his head, Serov snapped into all the Communists in the hall with a contemplative gaze, and he felt as if he had overlooked a problem, and this congress was a perfect opportunity.

From the KGB's point of view, there will be no more opportunities to reach out to political parties all over the world, it is a godsend, Serov instantly decided to take advantage of this opportunity, and it is not to blame that he just thought of this, he happened to be eating sand in Egypt at the last convention, and missed the opportunity to develop espionage. Is there anything better to know about the development of the world socialist movement than the political parties participating in this congress? You must know that no one has come except for Antarctica, and the places involved have been all over the five continents.

Returning to the 1st Directorate almost at lightning speed, Serov quickly found Lieutenant General Sakhatowsky, who was ready to leave work, to settle the matter. Sakhatowsky was very interested, and quickly finalized the specific details, and decided to take advantage of the current Congress of the Communist Party of 81 to recruit a group of people into the global network of the KGB, perhaps not from among the participants, but with the help of the power of these parties to enter the local area, as long as there is this channel, sooner or later there will be the opportunity that the KGB is waiting for, as an intelligence agency, they will never lack time. It's not like it's not unheard of to spend a lifetime doing something.

On 10 November, all the parties participating in the congress of the Communist Party and the Workers' Party of 81 countries arrived in Moscow, and in the midst of the militant full of fighting spirit, delegates from various countries slowly entered the venue next to the flags of 13 socialist countries in front of the venue, and more than 2,000 delegates entered the venue, involving political parties from 81 countries and regions. In terms of scale, it was far larger than the previous conference, with 30 more members in attendance, and if this trend continues, anyone who looks at it will feel that the whole earth will turn red is just around the corner.

"Be careful not to let people near the venue, especially not to let the Americans hear the slightest rumor. Don't think I don't know they're asking for news here. Serov, who was standing next to Alexey, watched all the delegates enter the arena and commented dismissively on his American counterpart.

"Don't worry, they won't be able to ask about anything!" Alexei was also infected by this grand scale, and he was very steady and could not suppress the joy in his heart when he spoke at this time, from being alone on the earth surrounded by powerful enemies to today's Congress of the Communist Party of the Eighty-One Nations, he knew better than Serov how difficult the journey was.

"Let's go, the conference can't be finished in one day!" Serov said a word, and then saluted a row of flags at the entrance of the venue, two of which were always in his sight, and for a long time, the two got into jeeps and left the venue. (To be continued.) )
