Chapter 698: Convince Li Duan

"Comrade Gromyko has been annoyed by Kissinger many times lately, and now he is very short-tempered. "Andropov also rarely teased that it had always been the United States that had been making trouble for the Soviet Union, and now the situation had finally been transferred, which made them all very happy, and even the head of the Central Liaison Department, who had always been very serious, rarely started a joke."www.biquge.info

"Comrade Gromyko always speaks according to the wording of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and if I had said it, I would have said it for sure." Serov pondered for a moment and brought in the role of a diplomat, and said solemnly, "In fact, Mr. Kissinger can be understood as the quadrennial election of the United States, which is the election of the Soviet Union and the United States on behalf of their respective values, and now the world is in the process of election, and the defeat suffered by the United States can only prove that their values are not popular." ”

"Haha......" Ustinov covered his forehead and shook his head and smiled, "Yura, if you had been staying in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs back then, you would have become the most unpopular cadre in the Soviet Union." ”

"I'm just as unpopular in their eyes right now." Serov leaned back in his chair as if he had no bones, and said with the appearance of Hawking, "Our struggle with the Americans is a life-and-death struggle, not to mention that we are now evenly matched, even if the strength of the United States is far inferior to that of the Soviet Union, only half of ours, I will kill this country, and it is impossible to reconcile at all." This is true whether they are hostile to us or admit defeat and accept our ideas. ”

"Yes, the United States is our worst enemy, both now and in the future, and we can reuse Upper Cuba when necessary in the future, but unfortunately our power in South America is still a little smaller." Andropov nodded his head in agreement. Ustinov also nodded in agreement with the two.

Even if the Soviet Union collapses in the future, the United States will press Russia to kill Russia as completely as possible, even if Russia completely admits defeat, even if Yeltsin expresses the idea of integrating into the American system, the United States will be regarded as invisible, and Serov's era is called the Cold War mentality.

If you think about it carefully, of course the United States can do this if it wins, after all, there are only a few powerful countries, and it is one that can weaken one, Serov understands very well, because the top brass of the Soviet Union also thinks so. Don't let me win, if I win, I'll do the same. As for why the USSR did this, it was simple, the same way the Americans thought.

And the Soviet Union had even more reason to do so, the United States was the country with the best geography in the world. Not to mention that the Soviet Union, which is in the cold zone, is far from being able to compare, and China in the temperate zone is also incomparable. China is very close to the Soviet Union, and once there is a movement, the Soviet Union can quickly react, while the United States is too far away from the Soviet Union, and if the Soviet Union is not careful, the United States will regain its strength.

Will the USSR let the United States admit defeat and slowly regain its strength? It is simply impossible, so even if the United States loses the Cold War, the Soviet Union will find a way to use most of its forces to contain the United States, and if the chain is accidentally broken, the United States will become the enemy of the Soviet Union again.

"Let's not talk about what happened after we won, now there's one thing we have to do with our time. The Chilean Navy staged a coup d'état last month that was thwarted, and the role of the Red Navy played a huge role in this counter-coup. But the Chilean army is still a destabilizing factor, and we have to find a way to intervene. Ustinov raised this matter and asked, "I have invited Chilean officers to come to Moscow for further study, and I am ready to slowly replace the Chilean officer class and give Comrade Allende a help, what do you think?" ”

Historically, if Allende came to power, if the United States supported the army, if it immediately suppressed the Chilean people, it would undoubtedly provoke a wave of armed struggle among the people, which the United States did not want to see and could not deal with. So they agreed to Allende to come to power on the condition, they asked Allende not to move the army of Chile's traditional forces, Allende agreed, they asked Allende not to arm the Chilean workers and peasants, and Allende agreed. Comrade Allende may have been naïve, or he thought that things had to be done slowly, but after Allende came to power, the Chilean people felt that everything was fine, and after the tide of revolution began to ebb, the army, with the support of the United States, suddenly launched a coup d'état.

"Very good, we can only use this method, according to our survey, President Allende's approval rating is 46 percent, or a little worse, as long as we reach a relative majority, we can find a way to turn Chile into a socialist country, elections are possible, the Communist Party and the Socialist Party hold elections, no matter who wins, they can take the socialist line, what do you think?" This idea has been in Serov's mind for a long time, and the forcible establishment of the Soviet system is very dangerous, and if the Red Navy wants to say that it can completely protect a Latin American country, the Red Navy itself may not be confident in saying this.

For more than a year, under the impact of the backlog of products in the Soviet camp, Chilean enterprises have collapsed, anyway, these capitalists have speculated and disrupted the market, and as a result, these Chilean private enterprises deliberately disrupted production, and the state enterprises of the Soviet Union finally went into battle, under the coordination of more than a dozen socialist countries, easily crushed the resistance of those Chilean enterprises, and after they went bankrupt, the Soviet Union gave Chile financial assistance and turned these enterprises into state enterprises.

This kind of behavior of the Soviet Union is just a kind of gratuitous aid in a different way, and it is a stupid thing that no country will do. But a socialist country like the Soviet Union did it, and the Soviet Union would rather give up its economic interests than gain a firm foothold in Latin America.

"It is also very courageous for the United States to dare to come to the aid of the DRC at this time. What Ford is doing now is being watched by the Democrats, and life is not easy. Everything he says is wrong, and whether the DRC wins or loses, the Democratic Party can attack him. Andropov shrugged his shoulders and expressed sympathy for the current president. The House and Senate are in the hands of the Democrats, and Ford can hardly make any decisions.

"The DRC will go down with Ford, and no one will be able to change it." Serov sat in the Kremlin for a while, clocked in to work, and after meeting with other members of the Central Presidium, he left the Kremlin.

The KGB had a lot to do at the same time, and Zinev finally returned home from Khartoum to complete his mission in Africa, reporting on the entire military operation in Sudan. As with Tsvigon, Serov gave Zinev a break, then approved some travel allowances and arranged for the Sultan to be dealt with.

The opportunity soon came, because the Thai Communist Party was gaining momentum, the Thai Prime Minister was overthrown by the military, and 200,000 student citizens were shot at during a demonstration against the military coup at Thammasat University, and then they were accused of being a Communist Party by the military, and were forced to flee the city, escape into the mountains and forests, and really defect to the Thai Communist Party.

The Socialist Party of Thailand, which is composed of intellectuals, has also established a united front with the Thai Communist Party, and the new forces that have surged like a tide have greatly boosted the momentum of the Thai Communist Party. The support from abroad, the popularity of the people at home, the staff of scholars, and the refuge of students are all there, and the Communist Party of Thailand in this era has both civil and military skills, and has new wings.

Thailand must be dealt with in two years, and China will not be able to help the USSR for long. Two years later, the Soviet Union would stop receiving help from China, and Serov, who knew the history, immediately made a secret visit to Hanoi to meet with the communist leaders of Thailand, Laos, and Cambodia, and many of the famous communists of the 70s in Southeast Asia were cleaned up in just a few years. If the Soviet Union had not taken over, it would have been impossible for these communist forces to overthrow these countries.

"I hope that Vietnam will not forget its own responsibility, the liberation of Southeast Asia is the responsibility entrusted to you by history, it is selfish to only consider your own domestic problems, and now the road is ahead, it depends on whether the comrades in Hanoi can bravely take this step." Serov exclaimed hoarsely, "Many Westerners say that you Vietnamese are the Prussia of the East, relying on this spirit to defeat France and the United States, now that Vietnam has been liberated, a million troops that can fight well should be of more advantageous use, as long as you give a little support to the Thai Communist Party, it is enough to end the Thai royal family and add a brother country." ”

More than ten years of the Vietnam War left Vietnam with an army that could fight well, if it was not used, it would be a pity from the perspective of the Soviet Union, for which Serov brought enough benefits, such as 50 million rubles and 50 million US dollars, to aid Vietnam, as long as Vietnam contributed a little army to level Thailand.

The Soviet Union did not have any extra military strength, otherwise it would have rolled up its sleeves and rushed up. North Korea is too slippery, and now it can only let Vietnam take the place of Cuba and charge into Southeast Asia.

"We understand the expectations of the Soviet Union, but we have just liberated the South Vietnamese part, and it seems risky to send troops now." Le Duan hesitated a little and said, "Are we going to complete the transformation of the south first, and then deal with the problems of Thailand?" ”

"No, we would prefer to see more fraternal countries, believing that a Vietnamese army that can fight well will not have a problem dealing with Thailand, and our consideration is to move in and out, that is, the model of Sudan and the Democratic Republic of the Congo." Serov said in a big way, "With the support of our Soviet Union, are you afraid that your transformation of South Vietnam will not succeed?" ”

"Okay, we agree." Le Duan hesitated for a moment and agreed, and the next day the Vietnamese party newspaper attacked Thailand's behavior of shooting and killing students, saying that Thailand's behavior was unreasonable, and directly referring to the Thai king as Thailand's Kerensky.

At the same time, Le Duan began to try to convince the other members of the Central Committee, and a week later assured Serov that the Vietnamese army would attack Thailand in three months to help the Thai Communist Party overthrow the current regime. (To be continued.) )
