Chapter 301: Successor

There was one last bit of time left, which Serov had left for Yelena, who had not had many opportunities to come to the GDR, and even less time to be with this woman. One thing he understands very well is that this woman has already given birth to a child for herself, and for him she is even afraid to return to live in the country, and Serov has only gratitude in his heart for this woman who has sacrificed too much for herself. Always putting Yelena in the GDR is not a matter after all, and there is a chance to make Yelena more free, otherwise it will always be a time bomb.

"Do you feel a little guilty about me? Will you be here in the future? Yelena asked two questions in a row, which made Serov a little unsure of how to talk for a while, and he knew in his heart that he had almost no time to come, and there were many things in the second half of the year, such as the war in Algeria, the war between China and India, and the confrontation between the United States and the Soviet Union in Cuba. And from next year, he will not dare to leave the USSR even more.

After Khrushchev cleaned up the Malenkov clique, Khrushchev removed more than two-thirds of the secretaries of the state party committees and more than half of the members of the Central Committee and the committee in five years. As soon as Khrushchev did not come up with a satisfactory answer to the Cuban missile crisis, all the discontent would erupt at the same time, not to mention that Soviet agriculture had always been a time bomb. There's a lot to deal with here.

"It's all temporary, Yelena!" Serov can only comfort his woman like this, he can't actually do anything else, he will at least know about the movements of Sherepin and Semychasny if he stays in Moscow, so as to ensure that the KGB will not turn the gun at a critical moment, as long as the KGB does not turn the gun The coup will not succeed.

All the people of the Sherepin group need time, time is the worst enemy of their people, and if it is really as it is in history, the Sherepin group has no chance of turning the tables. Brezhnev had plenty of time to slowly and little by little shoot all of Sherepin's people on the beach.

Serov changed into civilian clothes and accompanied Yelena to the Berlin Zoo, which was one of the few things Serov could do, and Serov, as an animal protector, met his own kind. Hunting in the Caucasus is still rampant, and Caspian tigers have found their sights in zoos in major cities in Eastern Europe. Sometimes Serov wondered if it was good or bad, but at least the lives of the animals were saved.

"Sometimes I really don't know what you're afraid of? Always have an anxious attitude? It's like now, I haven't seen you smile when I go for a walk! Yelena, who was holding Serov's hand, complained that her man was like a robot, all he could do was to walk behind him, and he had only one word for his needs, okay......

"I'm free to take you to Cuba or Indonesia. What's so interesting about the GDR, it's a big barracks. Serov was angry and funny, sometimes he really didn't understand what was going on in a woman's heart. Every time I am soft-hearted and agrees to the other party's needs, I will immediately find that Yelena will quickly gain an inch.

The first thing Serov did when he got up every day was to look for loopholes in the KGB's work. There is also the intelligence coverage of the Warsaw Pact bloc, Poland and Hungary have been cleaned up by Serov, Nagy and Kadar are more trustworthy, and there should be no problems in the past ten years at least. There was no need for the GDR and Bulgaria, there was no need to worry about it, the GDR had troops from the Western cluster. Bulgaria has always been calm. Two countries that really deserve attention are Czechoslovakia and Romania, especially Romania, which is a troubled child in the Warsaw Pact bloc along with Poland. When there is nothing to do, I always want to say goodbye to the Soviet Union and show my maverick.

The main thing is that Serov has not yet cleaned up Romania, and since the sixties in history, Moscow's concerns about the processes in Eastern Europe have mainly focused on Romania. The general secretary of the Communist Party of Romania, Georgious I. Dezhi, was trained in the thirties as the NKVD. A few years ago. The general adviser of the KGB in Bucharest was none other than Lieutenant General Sakhatowsky, now the head of the First General Directorate, who had greatly praised his efforts in eradicating the Titoites. But after becoming the head of the First General Administration, Sakharovsky became a successor to George U. Nicholas? Ceausescu showed very much dissatisfaction with the nationalist tendencies.

Romania had hoped that the Soviets would withdraw their troops from Romania, but because of the successive incidents in Poland and Hungary, Brezhnev eventually persuaded Khrushchev not to do so. So at present, Romania is still saved, and there is no historical situation in which the Soviet Union cannot control Romania after withdrawing its troops.

Lieutenant General Sakhatowsky knows Romanian affairs best, and if he wants to get his hand into it, Serov also needs the support of the head of the First General Directorate. As the general counsel of Romania, Serov did not believe that he, the head of the First General Directorate, had left any power to use in Romania, or to know some unknown information.

Can't you clean up China or Romania? Thinking that China's Serov had a headache again, he hoped that the contradictions between the Soviet Union and China would be limited to talking about it, but in fact the current confrontation between China and the Soviet Union was still relatively obscure, for example, on the issue of Albania and Yugoslavia, some skirmishes between China and the Soviet Union began through third countries.

Moscow scolds Albanian dogmatists, while Beijing accuses Yugoslavia of revisionism. Anyway, except for Albania, with Andropov's inspection, most countries will not take this aspect seriously, after all, these countries have also seen the real situation in China.

"It is necessary to create established facts before Ceausescu comes to power!" Serov felt that he was really born to work hard, and he must communicate well with the comrades in Romania at today's security meeting, it is not impossible to be independent, and it is not impossible to scold the Soviets for showing their dignity, but at least they should take into account the overall situation.

After returning to the apartment, Yelena yelled to take a bath, but this apartment does not have a private bathroom, and there are about three places to take a bath, the first is a natural lake or river, considering the current temperature, Serov does not want his woman to die young, and the second is a public bath, which does not cost anything, but it is relatively unsafe. Then there was only one place left, find a trustworthy unit to go in and take a bath, and the most trusted place in the whole GDR for Serov was the Stasi. If he went by himself, he might go to the military camp of the Western Cluster, but with Yelena, he didn't have the courage to do so.

Coming out of the Stasi's bathroom, Serov and Yelena dressed themselves and went to the department store to buy some groceries, bought some vegetables and bread, and Yelena personally cooked and prepared to show the men her cooking skills. Serov is also busy helping women, and he needs to get along on this occasion to enhance the relationship between the two.

"Eat more, I heard that the Stasi is going to experiment with a vegetable greenhouse this fall, which can guarantee the supply of vegetables in Berlin in winter!" Yelena looked at Serov and said with an interested expression.

This made Serov stunned, shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Vegetable greenhouse base? The vegetable greenhouse base in Moscow was built by our KGB, and Markus Wolf directly copied our results without informing him......"

The two remained together for the last few days until Serov returned to Moscow. When Serov returned to Moscow, Moscow also welcomed a delegation from Cuba, including Castro's younger brother, Raul Castro. Khrushchev extended a warm welcome to the visiting Cuban delegation, and the specific matters were discussed in the Grand Kremlin, and Serov could not have known, but his current affairs were also very important, and in the Lubyanka, Serov and Semychasny discussed a matter.

"I've already told Shurik about the counter-espionage results here, and the news from Shurik's side that maybe the head of the GRU is going to be replaced, Yuri, who do you think is more suitable to be the head of the GRU." Semychasny asked in a consultative tone to Serov.

This tone means that because of another espionage case, the current head of the GRU, General Serov, must step aside, and there have already been two middle and high-ranking officers who are close to him who have defected, and Khrushchev didn't care too much about it the first time, but this time no one can save him.

"There are a few qualified candidates, Lieutenant General Sakhatowsky, Director of the First Main Directorate, Lieutenant General Alexay, NKVD, First Deputy Chairman, Colonel-General Itvasov, and, of course, me." Serov did not forget to add himself to it.

"What are you kidding, how can your talents be confined to a place like the GRU?" Semychasny directly vetoed Serov's words about adding his name, in fact, he had communicated with Sherepin about this, and his suggestion was to let Serov go to the GRU to be the leader, but Sherepin directly vetoed it.

"It's too early for us to talk about this, we still have to wait for the order of the Central Presidium, and it's better for us to hand in the list of candidates for the GRU director, otherwise it will be a little unpleasant." Serov said, "We can do this step by step, it's not good to be too anxious!" ”

Semychasny nodded and agreed with Serov's words, the KGB has a lot of power, and it should be more low-key. As Serov said, it is more acceptable to wait for the inquiry of the Central Presidium. (To be continued.) )
