Chapter 167: Stalling for Time

The meeting between the three also showed that a consensus had been formed among the heads of Soviet agents in Hungary.

A few days later, the funeral of the former Minister of the Interior, Rajk, was solemnly held, because Hungary had restored Rajk's reputation and recognized Rajk's case as an unjust case. The news caused an instant sensation, and many Hungarians took to the streets to see Rajk off.

"Do they really know about Raik's deeds? So why didn't you stand up when the Rajk case broke out? Serov, who received the report, sneered, "The child died and came to milk, why did you go earlier?" Keep a close watch, inform the Minister of Internal Affairs Lassac, the Internal Affairs Troops to be on alert! Let's hope this group of Hungarians won't cause trouble! ”

I don't know if it was the close monitoring of the internal affairs forces, but in short, the crowd on the street at Raik's funeral did not cause any big trouble, which made Serov secretly relieved, although it was temporary, there was no accident after all.

October is really a harvest season, but I don't know whether this bumper harvest will go to the Soviet Union or the United States.

Serov also went to the Soviet embassy in Hungary to monitor the movements of Hungarian government ministers, and the phone calls of General Secretary Gro and Nagy were the targets of key surveillance.

"If things are irreversible, the Hungarian internal affairs forces must be allowed to block the US Embassy, and no one can be released" This is the worst-case scenario, as the dark tide is raging, Serov has less and less confidence in the upcoming mass movement, if it must be suppressed, the US embassy must be blocked, and it is better to surround the US embassy into an island.

"General, the chairman's telegram, asking if domestic support is needed? Twenty agents with legal status in the West are already on standby. If the time permits, they can jump into the action right away......" Isemimotney asked, holding the telegram.

Serov was stunned, these KGB agents were assembled and it was easy for Serov to guess the purpose, during World War II, Germany used death row prisoners to disguise themselves as German soldiers. Falsely claiming to have been attacked by Poland in a big way, it seems that the chairman of the KGB is preparing to replicate this case, so that these agents who have returned from the West are deliberately caught and planted an excuse for the United States to do something to the Red Army.

"No, the situation is no worse than the Poznan incident now! And we can catch American agents directly! Serov said, "And according to my observations and those of Comrade Andropov." Najib himself is more capable of handling things than General Secretary Gro, and we have already communicated with Comrade Najib and are confident that we will handle the incident caused by the fight between General Secretary Rakosi and Najib! That's ......"

On October 10, the Romanian Internal Affairs Troops began to assemble on the Hungarian border, and on the same day the Czechoslovak Internal Affairs Troops were on standby at the border. On 11 October, the Soviet troops in Hungary announced that they would hold an exercise in the border area between Hungary and Austria, on the grounds of preparing for a possible imperialist attack. On 13 October, after communication between the Soviet Foreign Ministry and Yugoslavia, Tito agreed to put the Yugoslav People's Army on guard at the border to prevent the Hungarians from fleeing......

Serov learned about the cooperation of other countries one after another. Finally, a glimmer of confidence rose. At the same time, Serov once again communicated with the Minister of Internal Affairs of Hungary, Rassac, and learned that Rasak had begun to mobilize internal troops to prepare for it, and Serov was completely relaxed. Even the repression could not be carried out by the Red Army, and it was best for the Hungarian internal affairs troops to take action.

Although Serov is ready to strangle this movement by force, it does not mean that he will definitely intervene with arms, and it is uncertain where things will go, and there is a solution to that situation in every situation, even when people are protesting in the streets. Serov still has a way, after all, decades of memory do not come from a blank space. Later generations have had this experience.

After Rajk's funeral, Hungary was calm for ten days. Of course, it was only ten days, and on the morning of the 23rd, thousands of university students suddenly took to the streets, and soon there were more and more people marching, and the crowd along the way made the ranks of the marchers bigger and bigger, and the demonstrators shouted that Najib should be reinstated and that the election should be held immediately......

"A bunch of stupid forks, Najib has already communicated with me, except for you cannon fodder, the real main messenger is ready to escape at any time, right?" Serov said disdainfully to Lassac, "Minister Lasak, have the political prisoners released some time ago already grasped the movement?" ”

"These are all Hungarians, naturally they are still in the country, General Serov, why are you asking this?" Minister Lassac had a bad feeling, especially after the people took to the streets, and this bad feeling became more and more apparent.

"Grasp the trend, there must be a scapegoat!" Serov smiled and said, "The fact is obvious, after the release of many prisoners, the security of Hungary has become unstable, this incident in addition to the imperialist bribery and infiltration, must be inseparable from those who are dissatisfied with the society, prepare to use the internal affairs forces, these people will be arrested, and then shot in the name of disturbing social order!" You don't need our KGB to write the charges and verdicts for you, okay? Serov stretched out his hand and patted Rassac's shoulder, and Lasak instantly felt a chill on his shoulder, as if Serov's hand had come out of hell......

These released prisoners are not intended to be the best scapegoats, but by the way, they have been bought by imperialism. After a batch of evidence was fabricated through torture, and the proper evidence was conclusive, when the time came, a public trial meeting would be shot, and it would be considered a successful conclusion.

"Some thugs will definitely take advantage of the people's dissatisfaction with the government, and the internal affairs forces should send weapons down!" Serov said lightly.

At this time, the Soviet troops in Hungary had rushed to the Austrian border, the internal affairs troops of Romania and Czechoslovakia had been in place, and Yugoslavia had also cooperated with the Soviet Union's demands. Although these people did not know the situation, the people at the US Embassy had already begun to feel that things were wrong again, and Andropov's eyes were paying attention to the movements of the US Embassy almost every day, and at the same time, the Soviet Embassy released a message to the people on the street, saying, "The people are dissatisfied, it is normal to petition on the street, the Soviet Union will not interfere, although the Soviet troops left the station, they only went to the border to exercise according to the established plan!" ”

"General, call from home! It's Secretary Shelepin's! "I heard that the Hungarian people took to the streets to protest against the government, is there any possibility that it will turn into a riot?" What is going on inside the Hungarian government right now? What was Najib's reaction? General Secretary Gro has asked for help, the possibility of sending troops is being discussed in the country, and we need the latest report! ”

Serov was stunned for a moment after hearing this, the Hungarian General Secretary Gro has already asked the Red Army to be dispatched? I didn't expect the pig teammate to be here, and immediately said, "To generate electricity in the country, the Hungarian people do have protests, but the matter is still under control, with Minister Lassac's internal affairs force is enough to solve the problem, all the lawbreakers are still under surveillance, we have planned that if we can't control the situation, we will send someone to block the US Embassy, I hope the country can rest assured that once the Red Army is dispatched, it will easily cause a bigger incident!" ”

Serov never dreamed that Hungarian General Secretary Gro would ask the Red Army to be dispatched, even if this guy has lived enough and he will die, please don't pull the Soviet Union, okay? "To contact Comrade Najib, we need him to come forward to calm down the situation, and at the same time, we also have our demands, should the group of liberal public intellectuals around him also be handed over to us, many people have been bought by the Americans!"

On the evening of the 23rd, Nagy began to address the Hungarian people by radio, assuring that now the government's communication is ongoing, but it will take some time to do the work, and at the same time refuting some rumors that the Soviet Red Army was dispatched, and the Soviet Red Army did not move, but went to the border to conduct exercises, hoping that the people would remain calm.

"Minister Lasak, you have to be careful when the internal affairs troops carry out their tasks, and at the same time, you must not let the soldiers alone, some rioters are easy to hide among the people and suddenly attack, this is not enough to be prepared!" Serov squinted his eyes and thought about the means used by the Americans in later generations, and gave the Minister of Internal Affairs a preventive shot in advance.

Serov made up his mind, to resist the pressure from all sides is to prepare to pretend to be a turtle, during this time, not to mention that it was Sherepin who spoke, that is, General Secretary Khrushchev personally intervened, and Serov was also ready to resist, and he must drag it out until the Suez Canal War broke out.

In fact, in the face of demonstrations, the United States has already set an example on Wall Street, and at the beginning, it was to use the police to maintain the continuity, waiting for the enthusiasm of the people to gradually subside, and then it must be the diehards who insist to the end, ordering the police to clear the scene and solve the problem at one time, Serov is just a KGB cadre who is still learning from the United States.

"For the people who are still unwilling to disperse, not only can they not be suppressed, but they must also give food and water, at least they must show their determination to solve the problem, I have informed the Polish side, Polish Prime Minister Silenkewicz is ready to visit in three days, Comrade Najib, you can release this news to the people first, I believe it is enough to win us for a while!" Serov said during a meeting with Najib.

"In the past few days, I have seen with my own eyes the power of the people, and as you said, the anger of the people is terrible, I don't know if I will be able to calm their anger then! But I'm curious, when are you going to wait? Nagy sighed and said that Nagy kept in touch with Moscow almost every day, which made the Soviet leadership in Moscow temporarily believe Najib's determination to deal with the problem, and Khrushchev promised that as long as the wave of protests was quelled, Nagy could replace Gro as the general secretary of Hungary.
