Chapter 262: Two Marshals
"Oh?" Sherepin knew that his little friend had been frightened by the huge latent forces on this list, and at this time he had to make Serov firm in his confidence, otherwise he really couldn't find a person with such courage for a while, and then checked, "Yuri, clear the unhealthy thoughts within the Red Army!" There is nothing wrong with keeping the position of the Red Army in line with the Central Committee, and not having too much self-will! ”
"I understand! Chairman, aren't you considering a change? Changing the director can make the work go on better! Serov is perfunctory with his old secretary who is not interested, and he still thinks that Africa is more suitable for him, at least he has no scruples to start with, and he can get by from his heart.
Xie Leping immediately understood what he had just said in vain, and he had to change his approach, "Yuri, first of all, we are not wrong, I have already said it just now in terms of national interests!" Now I'm going to talk about ...... personally."
Serepin took out the posture of the work of the Communist Youth League, stood in front of Serov and said, "Personally, we all know that there is nothing wrong with cleaning up the self-will of the Ministry of Defense and keeping the army and the Central Committee in line, of course this is not the point!" The point is that you are going to realize your self-worth! Yuri, if you think about it, the more difficulties you have ahead, the more you will get when you solve them, isn't that right? ”
"Really? Chairman? Serov said with an expression on his face, "Chairman, I have solved a lot of problems, but this time I feel that this work is completely beyond my ability. It's like a big mountain falling on my shoulders, and it's nice to be able to guarantee that it won't be squashed! Are you still ready to let me step forward? ”
"Don't you want to be promoted? Aren't you ready to make an impression in front of the General Secretary? Now Sherepin can only use the killer weapon, "Yuri, I can tell you!" If you threaten me with resignation this time, it is estimated that you will not have a good time in the KGB in the future, and now you have to go to the top if you have difficulties, and you have to go up if there are no difficulties to create difficulties! Anyway, you're going to have to hold on to me......"
Serov instantly came to his senses, what is the difference between this and holding a gun to his head and telling him to go to a mine. Serov thought about it carefully, is there a figure in the military of the Ministry of Defense who is better than Sherepin in the future? The answer is no! Unless Serov now switches to the Brezhnev Dnepropetrovsk gangster. Otherwise, no one in the entire Soviet Union would dare to say that they were stronger than Sherepin. Even Brezhnev is not as powerful as Sherepin now, which is equivalent to an arithmetic problem where one plus one equals two, and Serov knows how to choose even if he is an idiot.
"Old secretary, in fact, I'm just complaining! I would be afraid of the old man of the Ministry of Defense? Serov snorted. On the surface, it seems that this is the case, considering that Serov has always been unstable, Shelepin is a little suspicious, maybe his little comrades are really just complaining, not trying to pick and choose.
It's simple. Serepin relieved Serov and showed that the investigation of the Red Army was completely the intention of the General Secretary, and that it was not necessary to give up because of resistance, dozens of generals seem to be a lot, but as long as they step down, there is no threat! In short, it means that we cannot give up now, that is, we must complete the task of the general secretary on a hard basis, and we must only succeed and not fail.
"I see, old secretary!" Serov's eyes showed unprecedented determination, and he was going to continue to mingle in the KGB no matter what. Or don't wait for the collapse of the Soviet Union, now you can think about picking up the rags in life.
The secret files of these generals were copied in three copies, the first one is now in the hands of Sherepin, who will be handed over to General Secretary Khrushchev at a suitable time, the second Serov was sent to the Archives Registration Department of the unit at the same level as the General Directorate, and the last Serov remained in the archives of the Main Directorate of Military Administration for the record.
The secret files handed over to Sherepin consisted of a total of 63 commanders with the rank of major general and above, covering the army, the territorial air defense forces, and the air force, and the navy was considered a department with relatively small victims, with only two generals, and even three generals of the airborne army, which was not a branch of the service, were implicated with Marshal Zhukov. It is also easier to understand that the navy is the smallest of the various branches of the Soviet armed forces, and its status itself is relatively low, and the most memorable feature may be that the naval infantry can be used as an army. It's a bit like the Herman Goering Panzer Division. The Navy was especially unappreciated during the Khrushchev period, because Khrushchev, as the supreme leader of the Soviet Union, believed that the Navy itself was a huge target in the era of nuclear weapons, and there was no need to spend huge sums of money on building huge warships to set targets for the enemy. This theory of a nuclear war at sea led to the fact that the Navy was not taken seriously in the Soviet Union, and naturally there were no important admirals worthy of Marshal Zhukov's special promotion.
"I'm not dreaming, are you, you came back earlier than I did? Fulcaiwa changed the plane to a secretary? Serov, who came home and walked through the door, couldn't believe his eyes. At least he hadn't seen himself in months, and he had come home to see Valya sooner than he had returned.
Valya straightened her clothes, stood up and said, "Yuri, Uncle Bagla Miyan sent someone to find me, let's go and sit where he is today, so I told the secretary of the municipal party committee and came back early today......"
"Uncle Bagla Miyan looking for us? Go for a seat? Serov tilted his neck and thought for a moment, "This is really not good news, Uncle Bagramian is not asking us to sit down at all, but to find us to ...... something"
Thinking of the recent actions of the General Directorate of Military Administration, Serov knew what Marshal Baghramyan was looking for, and after making the decision to retire Marshal Zhukov, Khrushchev made some adjustments to the leadership of the Ministry of Defense, and now Marshal Bagramian has been transferred to the post of Deputy Minister of Defense and Head of the General Logistics Department of the Armed Forces, which means that Marshal Baghramyan will also be considered one of the important tasks among the generals of the Ministry of Defense.
Serov informed Valya about the current investigation of the Ministry of Defense by the General Directorate of Military Administration, and Valya's face changed and she bit the tips of her fingers and asked hesitantly, "Then let's not go, let's find a chance to talk to Uncle Bagramian in the future......"
"No! There's no reason why I shouldn't meet Uncle Bagrami Young! Serov said helplessly, "I became a lieutenant general today, it is inevitable that my parents died in the battle of Kiev, so Uncle Bagla Miyan has special care for me, I can't just because I am now in the inventory of the Ministry of Defense system, that is too wolf-hearted!" My goddess, put on a little more clothes so that you don't get frozen, and we'll go now......"
"Bagramyan should be waiting for me at home now, right?" With the swaying body of the car, the absent-minded Serov was thinking about the purpose of this meeting, mainly what Marshal Baglamyan had. If I guessed correctly, there is only one thing that Marshal Bagrami Young should take the initiative to find himself, and that is to stop the inventory operation!
Although Serov was not considered a soldier, he also knew that the current liquidation operation would definitely damage the combat effectiveness of the Red Army, and the difference between it and the Great Purge of the thirties was that this time it did not kill people and the scope of the impact was not so wide, and the degree of damage to the combat effectiveness of the Red Army was the same on the same scale. But he Serov can't help it, he is just an executor, not a rule-maker, and the leader above can only cut whoever he asks him to cut!
"When you don't stand on the moral high ground, there is really heavy psychological pressure!" Standing in front of the gate of Marshal Baglamyan's villa, Serov stood for half a minute and still didn't have the courage to call the door, so he could only wave his hand and ask Valya to call the door.
Serov once again showed his cowardly side, facing the family of Marshal Baglamyan, who had been very supportive of him, he did not even have the courage to call the door, and at the critical moment once again let Valya attract firepower, he did not believe that a marshal would yell at such a beautiful girl.
"Valya, Yuri! Come on in, it's chilly outside! It turned out that Serov was purely thinking too much, and it was Marshal Baglamiyan's wife who opened the door, and Mrs. Baglamyyan was still so pleasant, and Mrs. Baglamiyan, who had completely lost her shape, not only did not have anything to dissatisfy Serov at this time, but also eliminated the uneasiness in Serov's heart.
"Auntie, let's sit down today!" Knowing that Serov was socially intimidating, Valya smiled brightly, pulled Serov, who looked like a wooden stake, into the door, and greeted Mrs. Bagramian cordially.
"It's good that you're here, old Ivan is chatting with the guests in the study, I'll let him out now!" Mrs. Bagla Miyan; Holding Valya's little hand, she said gently, for Mrs. Bagla Miyan, she didn't know the relationship between the KGB and the Ministry of Defense now, and the Serov in her eyes was the child who blocked bullets for Bagla Miyan, and the little Yuri who had lived in their house for several years.
"No need, Auntie!" Serov smiled bitterly and said, "I'll go see my uncle!" There is no reason for Uncle Bagla Miyan to come down to see me! "The basic politeness Serov still understands, and it is better to lower his posture in this meeting, maybe he can be scolded less.
Serov went up the stairs and soon came to Marshal Baglamyyan's study, pushed open the door and saw Marshal Baglamyyan, this is not the point, because there is another person in the study, if Serov's eyes did not deceive himself, the person who chatted with Marshal Baghramyan also had epaulettes on his shoulder.
