Chapter 897: The Energy Ship Lifts Off
It would have been a surprise if it had provoked the Soviet Union into a war. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoAs for the safety of allies? Is that a problem? Reagan, although he attacked the Soviet Union every day, his allies in Eastern Europe were all satellite states! But who doesn't know that the United States also does not need allies, and the United States also treats other countries as client states.
It's a big deal to sacrifice one country, and to drag the Soviet Union into the quagmire, anyway, the situation of the United States in Eurasia is sinister enough, and it is better to find out two countries to make good use of waste. No matter how bad it is, it can't be worse now......
"Huh? The free world should not do such a thing. "Reagan is not restraining himself with morality, but he is saying that he should find a country that is not the free world, and that the security of Europe is still the highest priority.
"It's not like there is no country with broken jars, and the government won't die, but there are always people with low IQs who are blinded by hatred, and it's not difficult to leave it to me." CIA Director Casey's eyes lit up with a terrifying light.
The KGB is a group of ruthless anti-rebel workers, is the CIA a group of good men and women? The Soviet Union supported hundreds of communist forces on five continents, and who was resisting these Soviet partisans was not the CIA.
Reagan nodded knowingly, Casey was his comrade-in-arms who had the most common language in the face of the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union, America's most dangerous and cunning enemy, must be dealt with with with all its might. As a result of this goal of the Soviet Union, the United States will use all its strength, even its potential, to defeat the Soviet Union and solve all problems.
In the words of the communists in the Soviet Union, the periodic economic crises of capitalism are inevitable and will become shorter and shorter, and this situation cannot be solved unless there is a great explosion of science and technology, or a war.
Although Reagan did not want to admit it in his heart, in fact he still felt that the current reform was not enough, and that if he wanted to make the United States the strongest, he had to sacrifice something. Even if it is an ally of the United States at the expense, as long as the United States can be promoted rapidly, Reagan, as the president of the United States, will not hesitate to make a decision.
Reagan wanted to promote the explosion of science and technology, and at the same time, he also wanted to get rid of the countries that are now in industrial conflict with the United States. It's time for the next wave of sheep shearing, but unlike before, this time the United States must attack the economic powers of the same camp, otherwise it will not be able to solve the current problems of the United States.
"Why can't these client states understand the plight of the United States and obediently give the blood and sweat of their own people to the United States?" Dad Reagan, of course, had reason to be angry, and in his opinion America's allies were so ignorant. At the current time, they are still calculating small profits and causing trouble for the United States.
Why can't they obediently give up their wealth and let the United States reach its peak and kill the Soviet Union? Originally, Reagan wanted to talk about this slowly, but now the progress must be accelerated, and Japan and the Federal Republic of Germany must agree to the demands of the United States. The garrisons in both countries are not just for stallions. When necessary, be sure to let these two countries know who is the dad.
"Just bring little Valya here!" Serov, who was asking me for this iron rod, washed himself in front of the mirror. After getting up, I watched for a while the heroic posture of the Soviet delegation at the games. Well, it's nice to have a few little girls in gymnastics...... It really deserves to be a strategic weapon of the Soviet Union......
Kunaev is really not a good way, shouldn't two waitresses be arranged to solve the problems of the general secretary's life?
Communism was still very successful for a certain period of time, and the Soviet Union really took great pains to develop and build these areas, build factories, build schools, and these humiliated peoples who had been oppressed and uneducated finally stood up, and they gloriously considered themselves to be Soviet citizens first, Kazakhs and Uzbeks second, and then many people regarded Allah as dung.
When he came here, of course, the general secretary should be concerned about ethnic and religious issues, and listen to the report of the chairman of the Kazakh KGB, such as the progress of eliminating ethnic differences and the intensity of suppressing religion. How to systematically eliminate the national consciousness, language and culture of the entire Soviet minority must be eliminated.
To promote the Russian language and culture, we must resolutely crack down on those who promote the culture of our own people. Serov allowed only the national minorities to keep their national costumes, and the rest of the USSR did not need them all. At least in Central Asia, Soviet rule could be considered a success.
Now Kazakhstan, the economy ranks third in the Soviet republics, half of the Kazakhs do not speak their mother tongue at all, seventy percent can not write Kazakh, this Kazakh is still spelled in the Kirill alphabet, most of the Kazakhs speak Russian like Mandarin, there is no slightest barrier, there are believers in Xiaoyuz believe in the Orthodox majority, the other two Yuz city residents are also accustomed to Russian life, religious beliefs are weak, pork is a normal meal, the birth rate is very low.
"What the hell is going on with the ratio of men to women in our league? Why is it the same here in Kazakhstan? "The whole of the Soviet Union was out of balance between men and women, it was just a matter of more and less. The three Baltic countries have the greatest disparity, and the situation in Central Asia and the Caucasus is only a little less, which seems to be relatively normal, but in fact there are still more women.
"Basically, it's okay, we should pay great attention to the education of the next generation to prevent the resurgence of religious ideas." As far as religion is concerned, the founding of the Soviet Union is still too short, and the entire generation that has been influenced by religion has died, which can only be said to be a preliminary phased victory.
Even if this victory is to be established, it must be established under the condition that the religious policy of the Soviet Union has always remained unchanged, otherwise the progress of the Virgin Mary will be interrupted by two foolish forks from Moscow, and religious ideas will be revived on a large scale.
"We will not relax in this kind of work, General Secretary, please believe in our anti-rebellion workers." The chairman of the KGB of Kazakhstan solemnly assured. Serov nodded, the high-pressure policy on religion still has to continue. There is no room for compromise on this, and he can only trust these anti-rebel workers, let alone other comrades.
The Baikonur launch site was not a strange place for Serov, and it was here that he saved the Soviet Marshal Nederin and improved the conflict with the Red Army over disarmament issues, but this was the first time he came here as general secretary.
The Energia heavy launch vehicle, a symbol of the Soviet Union's scientific and technological development, is a launch vehicle with a completely new design structure, high thrust and long life, which allows it to expand its performance at least as much as the most used Soyuz launch vehicle (A4). The improved performance of Energia is reflected in its ability to carry a payload of 100 tons into low-Earth orbit. This is equivalent to about a third of the payload weight that the Soviet Union currently sends into low-earth orbit each year.
It took more than ten years of continuous investment to lead to the birth of this heavy launch vehicle, which allowed the Soviet Union to break the monopoly of the American Saturn V.
With a length of 60 meters, the Energy is much larger than the previous Soviet rockets. At the same time, the task was even more daunting, starting with the introduction of the Star Wars program, and the space race between the Soviet Union and the United States, which had disappeared, once again rekindled the flames of war.
It's a pity that many of the Soviet plans were interrupted, of course, including the second phase of the Energia, a hundred tons was only the first step of the Soviet project, and this loss was too great for the people of any country to cry.
"I've witnessed an accident here, and I have to make sure it's safe, and don't force the launch just because I'm here, you know? It is much more important to eliminate all technical difficulties than for the general secretary to come here to observe. Facing the person in charge of the size of the Baikonur launch site, Serov asked flatly.
If Serov hadn't been here that day, the commander of the Strategic Rocket Forces, Marshal Nedelin, would definitely have died in the flames.
"Don't worry, General Secretary, we have learned from that accident!" The head of the Baikonur launch site assured.
"Okay, then no problem, I'll wait here." Serov nodded and said, according to the intensity of the future confrontation, it may be that the initial confrontation between the Soviet Union and the United States has just begun, and if the United States makes a larger rocket, Serov may also start the Zhurong Star super-heavy rocket.
At 5:30 p.m., with the ignition of the Energia carrying the "Polar" Steki-DM test spacecraft, the icy countdown began, and the hearts of everyone at the entire Baikonur launch site hung in the air, and when everything was ready, the rocket's first-stage engine and booster were ignited at the same time. The rocket lifts off, the program turns begins, the rocket continues to fly, the escape tower is thrown, the booster is separated, the rocket is separated by the first stage and the second stage, and the fairing is separated.
The launch of the Energia rocket will not be successful until it is finally confirmed that Energia has reached the intended orbit. General Secretary Serov, who was in the midst of the cheers, reacted too calmly and even had a sense of incongruity.
Slowly, he took out the congratulatory message he had prepared in his pocket, and then put it back again, and took it wrong, it was a speech after the failed launch. The general secretary, who did not look abrupt at all, took out the speech of the successful launch in another pocket without changing his face, and said into the loudspeaker, "The success of the Energia heavy rocket shows that in the field of science and technology, the Soviet Union is still at the forefront of the world, and in a sense, the world's first place is in line with the current Soviet space strength." The Soviet Union is not afraid of any challenge, when we stand on the ground and look up at the starry sky, we feel the insignificance of human beings, just as there must be a first step in a difficult cause, and the towering trees also need to be cared for from an early age, communism in the Soviet Union has only reached its infancy, and cannot be measured by the development of capitalist countries...... To conquer space. ”
