Chapter 816: The Soviet Union

Brezhnev's purpose was to maintain the balance of the Presidium of the Central Committee, and from Reagan's attitude towards the Soviet Union, it can be seen that the new president, who has not yet taken office, is an extreme anti-Soviet, and in this case the collision between the Soviet Union and the United States may become more intense, so similar to the KGB, the Ministry of Defense and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the Central Liaison Department, such foreign-related departments will definitely increase their right to speak.

It doesn't depend on what Brezhnev himself thinks, but it will certainly be the case with the evolution of the general situation. Brezhnev's Dnipro gang did not have such people, and the real power factions in their own departments, such as Andropov, Ustinov, and Serov, naturally returned to higher and higher positions.

"Now that the Central Committee has decided, I naturally accept the trust of my comrades. In fact, I am a security cadre, and I still don't know why I, a good chairman of the KGB, became the secretary of the Central Committee. But I'll do my best! After getting Brezhnev's approval, Serov stood up and said. The attitude is neither arrogant nor humble, and it is no different from his usual life.

In fact, according to Serov's qualifications, except for his young age, he is not inferior to anyone. As early as the Khrushchev period, he also served as the chairman of the KGB and entered the Presidium of the Central Committee of the Soviet Union, and he had no strength in the Secretariat for so many years, because Brezhnev had always been a little uneasy in his heart, but this time he still rushed in.

There is a chance that Serov will thank Suslov, but no one knows whether the other party's character will accept it. Perhaps this authority, who was already a bit serious to the point of rigidity, didn't care if Serov would thank him or not.

After the meeting, Brezhnev left the table as usual, but unlike usual, he was no longer accompanied by Kirilenko, and the Kremlin's No. 2 man fell because of his family.

"Serov, how is your life in Afghanistan during this time, I feel that your mental state seems to be much younger." After the meeting, Andropov and Serov left side by side and asked, "By the way, I have something to do, come here in the evening." ”

"Good! However, Kirilenko's departure was somewhat sudden, and I was a little unaccustomed to it for a while. Serov did not ask Andropov directly, but just sighed casually, as if it was mentioned only by chance.

Serov didn't ask, and Andropov didn't say it directly, but just said, "The root is still in Kirilenko himself." ”

This sentence is quite true, like the old saying, flies don't bite eggs. Serov understood that Andropov had already tacitly tacitly assumed that Kirilenko's affairs had something to do with him. Serov felt a little sorry for Kirilenko, the Brezhnev deputy, who had focused all his attention on himself, and then was killed by Andropov, who had not done much for a long time. Fate is so wonderful, history repeats itself in this way.

Coming out of the Kremlin, Serov still had to make a trip back to the Lubyanka, this time he was away for a few months. There must be something to deal with, and by the way, see if these people are affected, such as Sellokov, Zinev, and Zvigon.

There must be some impact, but it doesn't seem to be much. From a purely collective point of view, the Dnipro gang, founded by Leonid Brezhnev, is still the most powerful political group in the Soviet Union today. Kosygin's left and right hands were all removed, and Shelepin's Komsomol and judicial combination also disappeared. It is true that the cadres of the real power faction in various departments are not very satisfied with these cadres promoted by Brezhnev, but as long as they are in peace.

In the evening Serov went to Andropov's house, and the other party must have something to do with him. There is no need to say this explicitly, the two of them can get straight to the point, and the General Political Commissar must deal with this scheming guy.

"It's not easy to do, you also know the character of the general secretary, he is old, and he hopes that he will see a thriving Soviet Union, not a Soviet Union that has begun to decline, even if it is true, maybe he is not willing to admit it. Even if he knew it at his age, he probably wouldn't have the energy to ask. Serov shook his head directly, "The ultimate possibility is that even if we find out something, it is likely that we will not be able to deal with it." ”

"It's in a hurry, even an investigation takes time, doesn't it? The best people in the world are in your hands, and if you follow normal means, you probably won't find anything. Andropov hesitated, "Under the leadership of the general secretary, this may be the longest stabilizer in the Soviet Union, which is both a good thing and a bad thing." ”

"That's right, the cadres at the level of the secretary of the state party committee are like steel fortresses, and the cadres below are like the ones that used to circulate frequently, Comrade Andropov, do you know what this looks like?" Serov said quietly, which aroused Andropov's interest, "What is it?" ”

"The members of the Central Committee are as solid as a layer of ice, but the river under the ice is always flowing, which is like a state of flooding, and the river below will accumulate more and more energy under the pressure of the ice, and when the time comes, it can wash away thousands of feet of ice, and at the same time break the dikes, and destroy everything they can do." Serov said silently, "So naturally I will help you, re-circulate the river, at least to a large extent." ”

"Our motherland should fight the United States with the strongest posture, and now that Reagan is in power, this person is obviously different from his two predecessors, and our side should be prepared." Serov concluded by talking about the just-concluded US elections.

"So we should be more responsible for the motherland!" Andropov nodded and said, "Let's see what the new president is capable of." ”

"I've been waiting for this moment, I've been waiting for it for too long." Serov said goodbye as he left Andropov's house, and Andropov nodded, indicating that he understood what the General Political Commissar meant.

In the evening news, the press reported on the resolution of the Presidium of the Central Committee, as well as the biographies of Serov and Tikhonov. As well as the work results of the two, Serov put his arms around Valya in his home and watched himself on TV.

The woman in her husband's arms kept emitting a hot and moist breath from her mouth, raised her head and whispered, "You don't seem to be far from your goal, I don't know what this country will become if it is under your leadership?" ”

Valya knows her husband well and knows his dreams. Although this man never mentioned it, she knew that Serov's dream was the same as everyone else's, and his eyes never left that unique position.

"Then it is estimated that the enemies of the Soviet Union will be scared to pee their pants, and the police empire that they talk about every day will really appear." Serov smiled and said, if he lied to his wife, it would be too tiring to be a day. Except for the matter of going out to wave, basically as long as Valya asks, he will choose to tell the truth.

The enemies of the USSR have always said that the USSR was a police state, and the owners of the Lubyanka did not find out about this at all. Maybe he really can't see the shortcomings in himself. After all these years, even many people believe that the Soviet Union is indeed a police state, and in this case, when the police state really appears, these countries must not regret it.

Serov knew that after Andropov, who had been the chairman of the KGB for a long time in history, came to power, there was a huge panic in the Western world, and Reagan also used a lot of means to calm down Western countries. In fact, this is not Reagan's credit, as Reagan should have been the opponent, Andropov's health was too poor, and time helped Reagan defeat this opponent and replace it with a rare superlative.

The Nikolaev Shipyard in the city of Nikolaev is the largest shipyard in the Black Sea region and the only one currently with the capacity to manufacture aircraft carriers. Compared to Leningrad, which has a population of four million and is open to foreign tourists, it is easier to keep secrets from the city of Nikolaev, which is not open to the outside world, and the labor resources here are not a problem.

From the construction of the first generation of aircraft carriers Moskva, the Nikolaev shipyard gradually accumulated a wealth of production, technology, technical and management experience, and the shipbuilding equipment has been greatly improved, among which the use of the slipway is the most eye-catching, it is the most advanced integrated slipway system in Europe at that time.

The General Political Commissar went wherever he wanted to go as long as he wanted, and today is an important day. Construction began on the Soviet-class aircraft carrier, which was similar to the historical Kuznetsov aircraft carrier, but slightly larger, and the data on the drawings was a 70,000-ton aircraft carrier. The supporting fighters are MiG-29 fighters from the MiG Design Bureau, and a total of two are expected to be built, while the next generation of aircraft carriers is already being prepared.

Reagan was almost able to catch up with the appearance of the Soviet Union's own aircraft carriers of the same class as Nimitz, and after a long period of metamorphosis, the Red Navy began to enter the field where the United States Navy excelled. The USSR was a challenger in the oceans, in contrast to the situation on land on both sides.

"What are you thinking? Ulla? Standing on the slipway of the Nikolaev shipyard, Valya asked, holding her husband's hand.

"It's nothing, I'm wondering when the Red Navy will be able to restart the Guantanamo Bay." Serov was thinking of the rusty Varyag and the Ulyanovsk, which had been tricked into dismantling by a leather bag company. The Nikolaev shipyard that has withered in later generations, and Ukraine, which has a huge number of Soviet technical talents but is constantly withering.

Fate is always so cruel to losers, all this will change, and as long as the USSR remains, no matter how many problems he has, it gives ordinary people another model and hope. "In a few years, we may see this Red Navy appear in Hollywood, according to the American thinking, it will." (To be continued.) )
