Chapter 985: The Second Goal
The purpose of the visit to the Gulf countries is to continue to use oil to support the issuance of dollars and to visit China to save costs. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ The most unfortunate ones are Japan, South Korea and the Federal Republic of Germany, which have been washed by the United States to stabilize the domestic economy.
However, this bloodsucking and the last Plaza Agreement, judging from the effect of the past two months, the effect is completely different. The effect of the Plaza Accord was immediate, and this time it only played a role in stabilizing the United States, and it is uncertain whether the hole in the US stock market can be plugged! In fact, Serov can think from Reagan's point of view, it is not impossible to return to the economic growth after the Plaza Accord, for example, to drain the blood of Britain......
It's a pity that it is not easy to draw the blood of Britain, Britain is not a defeated country like Japan and Germany. Another factor is that often when the economy is bad, people tend to desire fairness, and if Reagan is desperate to give Britain a blow, the most direct consequence is that Margaret Thatcher will step down and the British Labour Party, which has a certain affection for the Soviet Union, will come to power.
"The market value of the United States has evaporated by more than 800 billion, of course, I believe that it will slowly recover, and the final payment is still made up of ordinary retail investors, any country is like this, the biology class has been handed over to us the course of the biological chain, the big fish eat the small fish, the small fish eat the shrimp. The big foundations will be hit hard, and those that survive will be stronger. Serov, who was walking with Tikhonov, suddenly stopped, "But this time is still a great victory for us." The stock market crash has hit Americans' confidence hard, as can be seen in the feedback from the First General Administration! β
For two months, the First Main Directorate of the KGB has been staring at the United States to the point that there is no malice. It's just a simple collection of information, you must know that now the Soviet Union and the United States have just expelled diplomats from each other, and they really want to make too big a move, and the FBI is on alert, and those Hoover's disciples and grandchildren are not easy to mess with, after all, it is the mainland.
The market value has evaporated by more than 800 billion, which is the data after two months of slow recovery. It is not the loss of the United States in two days of stock market crash, if it is a loss of two days, it can only prove that the United States has suffered a suffocation. It does not prove that the United States will collapse, but today, more than two months later, the market value of the United States is 800 billion less than before the stock market crash, and this is a big deal.
Two months is not a long time, but it is not a short time, and it is enough for the Soviet Union to judge where the United States is affected. It's like slashing a legend, and the opponent's health recovery speed can tell how many medicine bottles they are carrying.
The slow pace of recovery in the United States proves that the Soviet Union was absolutely right to sell the dollar in this stock market crash. As for the inflation rate, the happiness index these data Serov did not look at, that is what Tikhonov used as a reference.
"Judging from the time, it is indeed so!" Tikhonov stayed by Serov's side for a while, seemingly a little tired, but his energy was still good, "What should we do next?" β
"The next step is not the economy, we have already gained a lot, and the hearts of Americans have changed, and at least for a year or two, they are not very afraid to involve the stock market. But the most professional financial industry is on Wall Street, and sooner or later they can restore the confidence of the people. Serov shook his head slightly, "I won't give them this chance!" β
The current United States is equivalent to being paralyzed for a period of time, and cannot fight back and be cut by the Soviet Union at will. It would be a waste of time not to give the United States two more knives if such precious time is not up. The stock market crash has just passed, and even the recovery period has not passed, Serov believes that in fact, if the Soviet Union does not make any major moves from now on, Reagan may lose his sharpness, and only wants to spend this term of office comfortingly, and leave the task of defeating the Soviet Union to the task of later generations......
Still? Why? The United States and the Soviet Union, which were at peace with each other, were probably the best, if anyone who did not want to see this situation. Then there is only one and a half people, half is Reagan, who is still unwilling, and the other is Serov, who is ready to knock out the United States.
"Now in this world, there is no one who can oppose me." Serov stopped and looked ahead, but said to Tikhonov, who was one step behind, "Are we waiting for the next Reagan to appear?" There are too many variables in the future, and if you want to solve the fundamental problems, then take advantage of the now! β
Tikhonov was slightly stunned, and a glimmer of hope seemed to flash on his old face. Snowflakes are slowly falling in the sky, and in a short time, the silver is already on the ground, and the General Secretary of the USSR and the Chairman of the Council of Ministers are once again taking a long step......
This winter is not friendly to the Americans, and the cold in the weather is resistant. The cold in my heart could not be contained, and even the New York Stock Exchange, which was very lively a few months ago, had a hint of depression. It is not the high-rise buildings outside, but the hearts of the people, the people who are in a hurry on the street, who do not look at the exchange more, and the idea of losing confidence in the financial industry begins to take root in their minds, which is the most terrifying.
It will not be so easy to redeem the change of people's hearts, but the bigwigs of Wall Street still have not lost confidence after the people's war, as long as that time has passed, Wall Street believes that they can rebuild the confidence of the general public in the stock market little by little, the problem is time. They don't know that Serov is not ready to give them time to recover.
After this appetizer was served, the Soviet Union had two months to see the effect, and now it is almost visible, and it is not simply restored immediately, and the social atmosphere in the United States has been hurt......
"So, this transfer is about to begin, is our information reliable?" In his own office in the Kremlin, Serov was paralyzed in a chair, and the KGB security cadres had long been accustomed to his Hawking posture. Sometimes other members of the Presidium of the Central Committee will remind him, but this does not include Chebrikov, the spokesman of the general secretary who usually handles the affairs of the KGB, who thinks that his boss is normal in this way, and it is not normal to be serious.
These thoughts were just passed through his mind, and Chebrikov's reaction was still very fast, "The news we confirmed through our own channels and the news of Markus Wolff, there should be no problem." β
"That's it! With Stasi's intelligence as corroboration, it seems to be very credible. Relocation of storage locations? Not bad......" Serov stopped saying a word, General Chebrikov had seen such a scene many times, and knew that his boss was thinking about the conditions under which the plan would be implemented.
The chemical weapons of the Federal Republic of Germany are transferred at regular intervals, for an indefinite period of about two to three years. This was done to prevent being targeted by the enemy, of course. It's normal, it's like everyone thinks. The army is not the same as the army, and the Wehrmacht is not the army of the Arab countries, although it is not necessarily fanatical as the Third Reich, but the discipline is well observed.
The Federal Republic of Germany always transferred chemical weapons, of course, because it was afraid that the Soviet Union would open it up if it found out, knowing that Germany was a defeated country, and that the defeated countries were still developing chemical weapons, even with the acquiescence of the United States, they were vulnerable to criticism. And that's not all, before the seventies it was feared that the Soviet Union would attack the Federal Republic of Germany and destroy the entire arsenal of chemical weapons.
It was only after the dΓ©tente had worked that the destruction of chemical weapons began, and the danger seemed to be getting more and more remote. That is, now, Serov, who has long been eyeing the Federal Republic of Germany, is ready to make a move.
"The October Revolution Day has passed, and the plenum of the Central Committee has been held......" Serov himself muttered with a sad face, which completely made General Chebrikov, who was waiting for a decision, unable to understand, what does this have to do with a series of congresses?
Seeing Chebrikov's incomprehensible gaze, Serov said patiently, "I'm looking for any major events to divert attention recently, so that we are very busy and will be suspected when the time comes." β
Criminals want to know that they have to look for alibi evidence to commit crimes, how could Serov, a rebellious cadre, not think of such a thing? However, after thinking about it for a long time, it seems that the Soviet Union really did not have a major event involving energy. He did plan one, but it can't be used until now, it is used to lure away the US Fifth Fleet, and it can't be used on Germany.
But? Not really! Serov really couldn't think of any big things to stir up recently, and Chebrikov racked his brains and didn't think about it, and finally said, "Or are we waiting for an opportunity?" β
"We can't wait any longer, the situation in the Federal Republic of Germany is not as invulnerable as it used to be!" Serov flatly refused, "Don't think about it if you can't think of it, do it, we don't need to create a tragedy, as long as an ordinary chemical weapons arsenal in the Federal Republic of Germany leaks, with the current speed of detection and dissemination, the Federal Republic of Germany will absolutely not be able to cover it." β
Not for a day, the Federal Republic of Germany does not have the ability to cover it. The Soviet Union was able to cover up even a nuclear accident because the Soviet Union's organizational strength was still there, and this organizational strength was unique to socialist countries. But the Federal Republic of Germany does not have such conditions, from a national point of view, if there is a big accident, any country wants to cover it, but some countries can do it, and some countries can't.
The two incidents of Chernobyl and the Fukushima nuclear accident can be seen as the difference in the methods of washing the floor. If the Fukushima nuclear accident had occurred in the USSR, no one would have known about it at all. The Soviet Union will cover it as soon as possible, and at the same time mobilize troops to calm down the troubles.
"Conduct an experiment in three days to assess how many are enough to be discovered by the world!" Serov directly ordered, "The data on the diffusion range after the explosion will be handed over to the First General Bureau, and you can choose the location of the operation." β
Just transferred to a new storage location, because of some operational mistakes, or bumps and accidents are very normal, so choose this time to do it, you can clear the suspicion.
The next day, in an abandoned city in Siberia, the data after the explosion test was quickly transmitted to Moscow and sent to the First Main Directorate, and the results of the assessment were immediately available, and with the population density of the Federal Republic of Germany, it only took ten tons of chemical bombs to explode, enough to invalidate any move to block the news.
