Gromyko began a tender offensive with Yugoslavia, and Soviet Defense Minister Ustinov and KGB Chairman Serov went to Minsk to hear the report of the joint meeting of the Warsaw Pact operation. Pen ~ fun ~ cabinet www.biquge.info from the first time Reagan came to power, there was no warmth between the Soviet Union and the United States, all that could be done was to see who died first.

"In the five months since the beginning of this year, we have clearly seen the hostility of imperialism towards us, and we can say that we are now in a quasi-war state with NATO. The war is coming step by step. Serov, who participated in the Warsaw Pact joint operational meeting in the name of the General Political Commissar for National Security, had just begun to take up his position and set the nature of the current US-Soviet relations.

Reagan had obvious hostility towards the Soviet Union from the very beginning of his presidency and began to eliminate the Soviet Union's support forces, but in the first year or two, Reagan's combing of the United States had not yet been completed, and the pace was relatively slow. But since the Falklands War, this movement has been significantly accelerated, and the establishment of the International Democratic League is only one aspect of it. There are many other means, involving many countries and industrial fields.

Serov If Serov now says that Reagan is a congenital idiot, many Western European media, including the domestic media in the United States, will very much agree with it, because normally speaking, why should an American president lead his own country and the Soviet Union desperately? There are many supporters, but there are also huge opponents, and the degree of social division is no less than that of later generations.

But he really dared to pursue his own anti-Soviet policy, and it was just in time for the top leadership of the Soviet Union to line up to see Marx, and now Andropov and Chernenko were fishing for three days and drying nets for two days, and the Soviet Union was like having no general secretary. The leaders that people see the most on TV are not the General Secretary and the Second Secretary, but the Minister of Foreign Affairs, the Chairman of the KGB and the Minister of Defense. This state is very abnormal......

"The military counter-espionage organs of various countries are also there, so I will temporarily talk about a few aspects of work, so that comrades can be on guard!" Serov cleared his throat and said, "The formulation and implementation of Reagan's strategy toward the Soviet Union was mainly focused on the National Security Council rather than the State Department, and the core figures in formulating the strategy toward the Soviet Union were Secretary of Defense Weinberg and CIA Director Casey. It's like my relationship with Comrade Ustinov, you can think about it the other way around. ”

The senior Warsaw Pact commanders who attended the meeting all nodded, and it was easy to understand what he said. The intelligence field and the military field have always been the main battlefields of confrontation at the national level, and there may be more intelligence fields than they are frequent.

financial, intelligence and logistical support for anti-Soviet activities to ensure the survival of the opposition in the heart of the Soviet Union; providing financial and military support to anti-Soviet resistance groups in various countries to lead the war towards the Soviet Union itself; By working with Saudi Arabia to drive down international oil prices and restricting Soviet gas exports to the West, the Soviet Union was able to reduce its hard currency revenues.

unleashing an unscrupulous nerve war to create panic in the Soviet leadership; Launch a global campaign, including secret diplomacy, to greatly reduce the possibilities for the Soviet Union to acquire Western high technology; the widespread dissemination of disinformation in an attempt to disintegrate the Soviet economy; The development of an offensive high-tech national defense project put a heavy strain on the Soviet economy and exacerbated its resource crisis.

"Since Reagan came to power, the number of incursions into Soviet airspace and territorial waters by American aircraft and warships has gradually increased. With the establishment of the International Democratic League, this wave of violations will increase. Simply as we had more options than we did twenty years ago, the emerging socialist countries of Southeast Asia needed our investment, and in some of the more dangerous countries, I was ready for U.S. military intervention, such as Latin America. As for the issue of oil and gas, the foreign exchange we acquire is of little practical use, and there is no problem in using it to support our own camp. Of course, this problem still needs to be solved. Serov cleared his throat and said, "Saudi Arabia is cooperating with the actions of the United States, and it is not only the Soviet Union that is hurting, you must know that oil is much more important to Iraq and Iran than the Soviet Union." The latter two countries are not weak militarily. ”

"Can we strike pro-American countries in the Middle East by commanding the armies of Iraq and Iran, and then create a second economic crisis in the capitalist world through rising oil prices?" One of the generals of the Bulgarian People's Army thought for a moment and said.

"It's a very novel idea, but I think it's more appropriate to wait for Iraq and Iran to be intolerable and take the initiative to ask for our Warsaw Pact support." Serov stretched out a finger and said, "You don't need to attack Saudi Arabia directly, you can try to make a little fuss in a country like Kuwait." ”

"Similar to Saudi Arabia, Iraq and Iran may not be able to swallow it, but if the purpose is to ensure destruction, destroy Saudi Arabia's oil wells and immediately evacuate, it is not very difficult, although the combat effectiveness of the two countries is not high, but who do they have to compare with? Thankfully, Saudi Arabia's military is weaker. It is feasible to launch a quick campaign by considering many aspects! Serov and Defense Minister Marshal Ustinov exchanged words and nodded at the same time.

This multifaceted consideration also includes the issue of the share of international arms between Soviet-style weapons and American-style weapons, and whether weapons can be eaten or drunk will certainly put pressure on the country's finances if they cannot be sold. For a long time after the Vietnam War, Soviet-style weapons, which were easy to equip on a large scale but did not cost well, caused great psychological pressure on the United States.

If Reagan wanted the U.S. military to dare to go toe-to-toe with the Soviet army, he would inevitably choose a pro-Soviet country equipped with Soviet weapons. Even spending more money will prove that the countries armed by the USSR are not so terrible. The first country chosen by the United States was Grenada, which had a big nose. In order to build up this belief in a strong America.

When the United States began to attack Grenada, the United States was still tentatively trying to see whether it would suffer as much losses as in the Vietnam War, but it turned out to be too easy, and it strengthened the United States to win a limited war against a third world country with the support of high technology, showing great confidence. This move strengthened Reagan's confidence in the big stick policy of using force as a means of intervention, and it can be said that if the US military can suffer heavy losses in Grenada, it will take some time for Reagan to regain the confidence of the US military.

The problem is that even if he knew about Reagan's actions, Serov couldn't do anything. He can only provide more assault rifles, so that the country will be plunged into a civil war after the withdrawal of American troops, and discredit the United States from international public opinion. The Soviet Union could not let Argentina defeat Britain, so how could Grenada, a small island that 90 percent of the country had never heard of, defeat the United States?

"Also, within the borders of the Warsaw Pact at present, the air forces of various countries should strengthen their vigilance, and in the event of an invasion by the enemy's air force, shoot it down!" Defense Minister Ustinov fiddled with the pen in his hand and lowered his voice.

"What Comrade Ustinov meant, it is not difficult to understand. The Soviet Union has sufficient capacity to solve the problems created by your countries, and on the contrary, no one can help the Soviet Union solve the problem. "Serov didn't say it too clearly, which means that the eldest brother needs you to block the bullets now, and it is better for you to shoot down the provocateurs who cross the border than to let the Soviet Air Force take action.

In fact, Serov thought that Reagan could be an excellent anti-rebel worker in the KGB, but unfortunately the other party was an American, so there was no way.

In the eighties, there was a series of negative events in the Soviet Union, and it is also to blame for the sluggish reaction caused by the successive deaths of the general secretary of the Soviet Union. In short, a series of events brought the Soviet Union to international notoriety. Among them, the fact that the Soviet Union shot down a South Korean airliner is the most suspicious. When is the Sea of Japan the Bermuda Triangle?

Serov could not change the Cold War environment between the United States and the Soviet Union, but he absolutely did not believe that the butterfly effect created did not even affect some small things; if there was another South Korean airliner invading the Soviet airspace this year, he would conclude that this incident was planned by the United States, and he had already communicated with the Korean People's Army before the start of the Minsk military conference, and once this incident appeared again, the Korean People's Army Air Force would be dispatched to shoot down the airliner instead of the Soviet Air Force to see what was inside?

After the Minsk military conference, Serov contacted the pro-Soviet neighbors of Kurdish, Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan and other countries in his personal capacity, hoping to write about the international responsibilities of the neighboring countries to protect themselves and protect the airspace of the Soviet Union.

"I had a friendly exchange with Comrade Lankovic, and the results were great!" Gromyko returned to Moscow after returning from a five-day trip to Yugoslavia and spoke about it at a meeting of the Presidium of the Central Committee.

Matters decided by the two peoples within Yugoslavia were basically a foregone conclusion. That's Croatia and Serbia, and if a nation can decide, it's Serbia. Rankovic was the No. 3 man in Yugoslavia and the No. 1 man in Serbia before the seventies.

After Tito's death, the Soviet Union began to slowly begin work on the restoration of Rankovich's prestige. The stability of Yugoslavia had to be exchanged for sacrificing the interests of part of the Serbian nation. Just as the Soviet Union had to get Russia to support the border minorities, China had to make the Han Chinese less ethnic. There is no way to do this, caused by historical reasons. Those peoples don't exist if you don't recognize them, otherwise the Soviet Union wouldn't have been able to separate Kurdistan from Turkey.

When Rankovic re-emerged, as he had done when Tito was alive, he advocated national equality and unity. The only difference is that Tito, who had been holding him down, was dead, and he was still alive. Not only alive, but also supported by friendly forces in the USSR.
