Serepin did not stay in Almaty for a few days, but soon returned to Moscow to mobilize manpower, there are many Arab countries, involving the deployment of many departments of the First General Directorate, such as the Middle East Division, the French Africa Division, the British Africa Division, and it is difficult to integrate these forces without the headquarters in Moscow......

On the contrary, once the domestic demand of the Soviet Union is too strong, the cost of the operation of the planned economy will increase exponentially, and it will definitely not work to open the market, because the cost of exploiting many raw materials in the Soviet Union is particularly huge, and even if American products come across the ocean, the products of the Soviet Union cannot guarantee that they can compete.

Therefore, the Soviet Union especially hopes that there will be a country that sings an unbreakable alliance with itself as a supplement to the Soviet Union's own planned economy and helps the Soviet Union make up for the shortcomings in the development of heavy industry. Historically, the Soviet Union wanted China to take over this role, but how many people did light industry need? How could China prevent a massive idle population from playing complementary with the Soviet Union? In the end, the Soviet Union chose India, a choice that historically was a huge failure. India's apparent strength deceived the Soviet Union a lot, and the massive amount of aid was all wasted, but it did not have the effect it should have at all.

Serov would rather pin his hopes on Indonesia than have confidence in India, which has the same fighting power as a weak chicken, and if the Soviet Union and India join hands to meet the enemy, the Americans will be able to smile crookedly. In all fairness, if the Soviet Union's assistance to China is considered a conscience, forcibly bringing in an industrialized country in the world, it is also a conscience to India, and in the end it is given to India. India's return to the USSR was simply hopeless. Even in the most intuitive military competition, the Soviet Union could not give the Soviet Union the slightest confidence in confronting the United States.

"I'm absolutely sure of this, it's easy to exchange arms for hundreds of thousands of cattle, and India's cattle can definitely be overflowing, according to our information in South Asia, India, a country of Hindus, eight people can see one cow. India's population is 430 million, but given the backward efficiency, the Indians should add at least 20 million......," Serov said to Brezhnev, who remained here.

The Mongolian side was very easy to communicate, and the Mongolian leaders had always responded to the demands of the Soviet Union, and would rather tighten their belts than support the Soviet Union, and Molotov, who was sent to Mongolia as an ambassador, was still very handy in dealing with a group of herdsmen, and soon got the Mongolian side to agree to the plan to support the Soviet Union's construction.

"If we solve part of it from Arab countries, part of it from India, and part of it from Mongolia, there should be no problem with meat supply this year. Very good! Brezhnev was very satisfied, and a cadre like Serov, who was keen to find a solution to the problem, seemed to him to be rare in the Soviet Union. It may be that KGB cadres are always in contact with foreigners, so they have such broad vision and thinking.

Brezhnev was not a resolute person, it does not mean that he will not do this, but he usually prefers to work in a different way, and Brezhnev will never be soft when it is time to do it, even in the face of anyone.

But in peacetime, Brezhnev preferred to get to know a person by way of private communication with cadres. Serov, the undoubted first deputy chairman of the KGB, Brezhnev was highly evaluated, and Brezhnev, a cadre of the Komsomol Grezhnev, had his own evaluation. Although the young cadres seem to be very capable, he does not think that this is the credit of the Komsomol, in fact, in his heart Brezhnev thinks that the success rate of the cadres of the Komsomol is not high, and it can be said that most of them are guys with low eyes. The reason why it has created a huge appearance has a lot to do with Xie Lepin's acquaintance and management.

The Komsomol cadres in the Soviet Union were huge, and not many of them really played their role. The gathering of these people around Sherepin created an illusion that made Sherepin look particularly powerful. It's not that Shelepin's power is not strong, but Brezhnev believes that as long as he finds the right opportunity, he can completely disintegrate it by means, and the real threat is that there are dozens of cadres......

Among Sherepin's friends, Brezhnev had a certain understanding. The closest comrade-in-arms is Semychasny, and the least restricted is Yuri in front of him? Yefimovich? Serov. Because Serov was a cadre promoted by Sherepin and Shemychasny, he was the youngest among Sherepin's friends, so he was taken care of by the Sherepin group, and with Sherepin's indulgence, everyone else was very indulgent to Serov, which allowed Serov to fully exert his ability, when the director of the department did the work of the director, the head of the department did the work of the deputy chairman, and now he took care of the KGB for Shelepin.

"I have to say that Shurik has you as his assistant, there are many things that don't have to be worried, usually when cadres mention imports, they will think of importing from Argentina or directly from a large agricultural country like the United States, you have a very reverse thinking when importing meat from such a backward country!" Brezhnev did not hesitate to give himself praise.

"It's just a little too much thinking, anyway, because of religion, they won't eat those animals, so why can't we help clean it up!" Serov took the report brought by Kamyagin and checked whether there was any problem with the list of weapons in it, and at the same time pretended to be chatting and said, "Actually, part of our problem is due to the poor logistics, if it is a simple plan to supply our current meat production and the development of fisheries, theoretically there is no problem to meet the needs of the people of the whole country, but in fact, because of the problem of transportation, it becomes impossible, for example, it is very difficult to transport fish from the Pacific Ocean to Central Asia......

Of course, according to Shelepin's request to hope that Stalin was alive, it was far worse, but apart from being confused on the issue of the lifelong cadre system, it is difficult to say which specific issue Brezhnev needs to be responsible for, and after the collapse of the Soviet Union, his evaluation of Comrade Brezhnev was not higher than that of Khrushchev. Although Khrushchev was also constantly reforming politically, there was no doubt that the first secretary was a communist, and even if he corrected his mistakes, no one could say that Khrushchev did not have good intentions, only that he had problems with his ability. Gotu behaved like a traitor from the start......

Since Brezhnev likes to communicate with him in private, Serov naturally has no objection, and Serov doesn't know how to talk about homely things, and soon Brezhnev found that the young cadre in front of him knew almost everything. And the thinking is not at all the same as the usual Soviet cadres, "The next ten years will be a decade in which the balance of power between us and the United States will be balanced, and as long as we make good use of the time in the next ten years, we will be able to change the strategic disadvantage that we have always had!" ”

This sentence made Brezhnev quickly overturn the impression of Serov, and it seems that the reason why Sherepin likes to promote this cadre has been found, and he has the same unreasonable self-confidence, even more serious than Serepin himself.

"Yuri, what do you think is the most powerful weapon we have in our hands?" Since it was a small talk, Brezhnev didn't mind what the other party said, after all, it was only a private occasion.

Originally, Brezhnev thought that Serov would say something like atomic bombs and a torrent of steel, but he didn't expect that after Serov verified the list of weapons given to India, he gave an unexpected answer, "Thought, the Communist Party of Italy, the Communist Party of France, the Communist Party of Greece, the Communist Party of Indonesia, the most powerful place in the Soviet Union is not the millions of Soviet Red Army, not the atomic bomb, not the tank, but our motherland is the first socialist country in the world, as a Communist Party member, I can find my comrades in any country I go to, I don't know the locals, it doesn't matter if I don't know the language of the country where I live, as long as I sing the Internationale, our comrades will naturally appear in front of me, which Americans can't do......"

No wonder Suslov was so optimistic about this young cadre that he even protected him regardless of whether the other party was a friend of Shelepin. Brezhnev found another answer, who said that frequent private communication is not fruitful? At least that's what Brezhnev has always done, and it's quite rewarding here at Serov today......

"This sign is what scares us the most!" Serov took off his big-brimmed hat and pointed to the five-pointed star and the Communist Party emblem on it, "Under this sign there are countless people who fight for it, and people want fairness, so they trust us." The hope of the Soviet Union is not the hope of our country, of course, not all of our struggles, our organizations, our party, our army are all true communists, but our people can be sure that all of them are supporting us, so we will definitely not lose. ”

"And my duty is to prevent traitors from appearing within us!" When he said this, the big-brimmed hat was put on again by Serov, and he handed his verified list of weapons to Brezhnev and asked, "Chief, see if there is any problem in it!" Brezhnev was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect that this assistant who Sherepin relied on the most would actually hand over the work of the KGB to himself, which was of course a friendly move.

Brezhnev dismissed the report handed over by Serov, saying that this was the KGB's own business, and it could be implemented as long as the current meat supply problem in the Soviet Union was solved. Then Serov returned the list of weapons to Kamyagin and said, "Limited by my own work in the General Directorate of Military Administration, my relationship with the Red Army is not good, and a large number of our mothballed weapons and equipment are mainly under the control of the Red Army, can Chief Brezhnev help me communicate with the Red Army?"
