Chapter 224: Free Officers Organization
A million employees of the KGB? Minister Alim, who is also the head of the powerful department, twitched his heart fiercely, glanced at Serov seriously, forgot about cooperation for a while, and his mind was full of the words of millions of KGB employees, this is a threat or boasting Alim I don't know, it seems that the other party's attitude is very casual when he speaks, let's think it's true. The size of the KGB is so terrifying that it can be compared with the attitude of the Red Army.
Serov, who did not know that he had frightened his Egyptian counterpart, continued to persuade, he was telling the truth, the KGB plus the informants already had a million in size, and after two or three years, they would do something against the Red Army, and maybe there would be a place for Serov to play.
"It's also a good thing for us in Egypt, and I won't back down if I need help!" Alim said reservedly, to avoid the embarrassment of leaking out of his appearance too ugly.
The capital of any country is a top priority, and Serov did not hesitate to woo Minister Alim and the commander of the Republican Guard, General Rahman, because he was afraid that Egypt would run away from the Soviet Union in the future.
"Then thank you, Minister Alim, and I hope that when the time comes, if the Soviet Union and Egypt can help say something during the consultations!" Serov looked at the time, stood up and said humbly, "It's not too early, then we'll see you next time!" ”
Serov, who came to Cairo, consciously began to make friends with the real power figures in Cairo, and the leaders of the powerful departments of the military and police were all here, fully implementing his reputation as a boy who scattered wealth, and only by opening up the situation in the Egyptian military and controlling the Egyptian army could Egypt be controlled, and the army was extremely important to any country in the Middle East, even more important than who was the president, the president would die, and the army would not.
"Let Consul General Alexander give me a list of all the Egyptian cadres above the ministerial level and above the rank of lieutenant general in the military! There are also the children of these people, who are selected to send a list of the second generation between the ages of eighteen and twenty-five to the country, so that the headquarters can communicate with the Ministry of Culture and the Ministry of Education, invite these people to study in Moscow, and so on......" Serov patted his head and said helplessly, "Why are you working so hard?" Just ask Secretary Fuer Caiwa to get it! ”
She was once the Deputy Minister of Education and the Minister of Culture. Serov is also dizzy, what else is there to communicate? Just let the direct lady come forward and talk directly to Fuercaiwa, the lady route is much faster than the regular route.
"The general is not too tired. Why did you forget that Mrs. is a celebrity next to Secretary Fuercaiwa? Lukani snickered, "If the headquarters and the Ministry of Culture and the Ministry of Education communicate with the invitation, it will take a month for the normal channel......
Egypt, which has recovered the Suez Canal, has become more and more prestigious, and it is like the leader of the Arab world, with the strongest army, the largest population, and the most prestigious leader. As Serov had imagined, Iraq's Free Officers did have operations in Egypt, as confirmed by the Egyptian Minister of the Interior, Alim, who had promised Serov that he would help him find the Iraqis in Cairo.
With Minister Arim's assurance, Serov was relieved that although the KGB was strong, it was not necessarily more powerful than this kind of snake in the Arab region. The Egyptian Ministry of Internal Affairs does not have the special status of the KGB of the Soviet Union in the country where it is located, but it is enough to find a trace of clues under the heart.
"The people of the Iraqi Free Officers, let's go to the Sinai Peninsula to meet them?" Serov said incredulously, "Who do they think they are?" If you want to get in touch with us, come to Cairo. Come or roll......"
Serov, who was still full of joy just now, almost tilted his nose, did anyone dare to negotiate terms with the Soviet Union, and now the Kingdom of Iraq is still there, and the Free Officers Organization is just an underground organization, and such an organization is entrusted with the Soviet Union to negotiate conditions? The Sinai Peninsula is the most chaotic place in Egypt, and many religious and armed forces, if Serov had brought dozens of people over, he might have disappeared without a trace, and if he had brought a large number of internal affairs troops over, it would not be shameful enough. Thinking about it, he had to categorically refuse, and both options were not good for him.
There is nothing in this world. There is no shortage of armed forces of all kinds, and as long as the Soviet Union expresses its intention in this regard, some of them rush to the door at the organizational meeting, and what kind of courage makes the Free Officers' Organization dare to make conditions with the Soviet Union. Serov was very curious about this.
"General Serov, the people on the Iraqi side are just afraid that there are spies of the kingdom in Cairo, and I hope that the Soviet friends will understand!" The Egyptian Interior Ministry also felt that this condition was a bit excessive, so he explained for his fellow Arab National Organization, "Although Cairo is safe, it is precisely because there are too many people. So the spies of various countries are lurking in it, and the Iraqis are also afraid of being discovered, and the Anglo-American forces in the kingdom are too strong, and they have been tracking down the Free Officers Organization! ”
What he said is quite reasonable, but it has nothing to do with Serov, and he has no consciousness of bloodshed and sacrifice, so it is not safer to be anti-imperialist and anti-feudal who is still a fart and hides at home and eats and waits for death. Since it is the dream of overthrowing the Kingdom of Iraq, such a small danger must be avoided, and the Kingdom can be overthrown in the end, is the Kingdom of Iraq a piece of paper?
"I will never go to the Sinai Peninsula, if I want to meet, I have to meet in Cairo! With the protection of your Egyptian Ministry of Internal Affairs, I don't believe that the agents of the Kingdom of Iraq will get the news, unless there are traitors in the Free Officers organization itself! "Serov insisted on meeting him in Cairo unmoved, it was absolutely impossible for him to go to the Sinai Peninsula, it was too dangerous.
"Okay, let's talk to that over there!" Seeing Serov's tough attitude, the Egyptian side could only say that they were communicating, because the matter of contacting the Iraqi Free Officers Organization should be regarded as the cooperation between the KGB of the Soviet Union and the Egyptian Ministry of Internal Affairs.
This was a time of heightened Arab nationalism, Egypt had the banner of Nasser, and now the government is full of Nasserists, many of whom are committed to the great cause of Arab unification and the restoration of the prestige of the Arab Empire. With the opportunity to cooperate with the Soviet Union and reach out to other countries, the Egyptians may be more interested than Serov.
In Serov's view, it is impossible to rebuild the Arab Empire, Arab nationalism is bound to die, neither the United States nor the Soviet Union will let the Arab Empire return to the world, and the best Middle East will always be in endless wars, and the Arab Empire will completely become the dust of history. As for how many people died in the war, it was none of their business.
After another two days, the Egyptian Ministry of the Interior was used as an intermediary to finally let down the guard of the Iraqi Free Officers. The famous slum in Egypt was chosen as the place where the two sides met, and the low-rise houses could not be extracted from the memory even by Serov, which was almost the same as the spectacular scenery of the ninth wonder of the world, the Mumbai slum kiln.
Serov, who was sent here by the military vehicle of the Egyptian Ministry of Internal Affairs, frowned as soon as he got off the car, quietly took out the handkerchief and handed it to Lukani, and said, "Hold on, we'll go back as soon as we're done talking......
The environment here is a little harsh, there is nothing to be seen related to electricity, and the low houses lacking wooden planks are like monsters with their mouths wide open, devouring human bodies and souls. I really don't know how those Iraqis found this place, or do they think that the harsh living conditions here can be deterred by the kingdom's secret visits?
"This is General Serov of the Soviet military, general, these people are members of the Free Officers Organization of Iraq!" Serov came in with his waist bent, and before he could see the person, he heard someone from the Egyptian Ministry of the Interior introducing the two sides. Saying that Serov is a general of the Red Army is also what he asked him to say, you let these low-level officers understand that the KGB of the Soviet Union and other institutions are likely to be classified as people like secret agents in the Kingdom of Iraq, just kidding, the KGB is much higher than the secret agents of the Kingdom, at best, those people are the Tsarist Janissaries of Ivan the Terrible more than 300 years ago.
"Hello Iraqi friends!" Serov greeted indifferently, the first thing to do in terms of posture is to be sufficient, especially not to show too much enthusiasm, and must let this group of third world buns know who is stronger.
The main task was still left to Lukani, who knew Arabic, "The attitude of our Soviet Union is known to the whole world, and the result that must be achieved by the colonial system, a system of backward times, is a complete collapse, and there is no reason for it!" The anti-imperialist and anti-feudal cause will continue forever from the past to the future, just as it was when the Soviet Union was first established......"
"General Serov, although we don't know too many ideals, we still know the basic truth, no one will help others at will without a purpose, either you are like Britain and the United States, you have a fancy for Iraqi oil, or you have other purposes! We would like to know the position of the USSR, although we do not have the capital to negotiate conditions with you! A middle-aged man with a weathered face and a beard looked like the head of these people, and after he spoke, everyone listened quietly, waiting for Serov's answer.
"Well said, we, the USSR, naturally have our own purposes! But for you in Iraq, it's a win-win! Serov stretched out his hand and shook his finger and said, "That is to abolish the Baghdad Treaty and withdraw Iraq from the Baghdad Treaty Organization!" This is the attitude of our Soviet Union, for you it is nothing more than a gesture! (To be continued.) )xh123
