Chapter 205: The Situation Changes

Forteva glanced at Sherepin's friends around her, found that these people unconditionally believed in Shelepin's inference, unconsciously gained a little confidence, nodded in approval of Sherepin's idea, and then left the Komsomol headquarters building. ,

After the Komsomol people sent Fortseva away, Goryunov looked at his nails and said to himself, "Alexander, do you think this time the general secretary will be able to turn defeat into victory?" Our position seems a bit risky this time, right? ”

Sherepin smiled indifferently and said to his friends, "Khrushchev is the chairman of the National Defense Committee, what do they want to do with Malenkov?" Unless they have the Ministry of Internal Affairs in the hands of Beria as a backing, it's a pity that the Ministry of Internal Affairs no longer exists, and the KGB is still a little weaker! There is no strength to wrestle with the military......"

"Alexander is right, Malenkov and Molotov chose the wrong way, without the support of the Red Army, they could not let Folseva come out at all, and everyone present should be placed under house arrest! can succeed in one fell swoop, when they didn't block the news, they actually gave the general secretary a chance to turn the tables! Yegorechev confidently analyzed, "Once the news spreads, the opportunity to pull Khrushchev from power is missed......"

"This can be regarded as a negative teaching material for latecomers!" Shelepin didn't know what to think of, and said casually.

Kirichenko and Saburov still have not returned to the Kremlin, and at a normal pace, it will take another day for them to return to Moscow, and although the Kremlin is blocked and the members of the presidium cannot go out, Khrushchev's personal freedom is not restricted. Inside the Kremlin, he still had personal freedom. After entering the Kremlin, Forteva also met Khrushchev as she wished.

Khrushchev could not leave the Kremlin at this time. But after seeing his henchman Fulcaiwa, he still behaved very calmly, and he had full trust in dealing with Fulcaiwa, and even the gossip spread that Furcaiwa and Khrushchev had a disgraceful relationship because of this trust.

"Fulcaiwa, what's going on outside!" Khrushchev is far less embarrassed than he was yesterday when he was besieged by Malenkov.

"General Secretary, the news has not yet spread, but the ministers of some departments already know about it!" Furcaiva had one thing to say, and told Khrushchev the real situation in the outside world now. Now the situation in the outside world is the same for the members of the Presidium, and Malenkov's faction naturally wants to get rid of Khrushchev as soon as possible, but as Suslov said, all the members of the Presidium have not yet arrived, so they can only wait for the return of the two.

"Very well, but the current internal form of the presidium is actually not good for me! Even if the other comrades of the two presidiums come back......" Khrushchev said with a sigh of relief, "and now I have actually thought of a way to turn the situation around, but it is not easy to do it. In view of the unfavorable situation in the Presidium, I can only convene a plenary meeting of the Central Committee, and the will of all the members of the Central Committee can reverse the weakness in the Presidium. What I'm lacking most now is time......"

While listening to Folcaiva, her heart was quite uneasy, what Khrushchev said he had already heard today. It was at the headquarters building of the Komsomol that Sherepin said exactly the same thing, and thinking of this, Fortseva immediately told Khrushchev what Sherepin had said, and told all about what happened at the headquarters of the Komsomol in 1510.

"Yes, Alexander is indeed a very skillful leader, and I know all his friends! Indeed, they are all capable comrades! After listening to Vorseva's words, Khrushchev said, "Well, gather all the members of the Central Committee and try to delay as much time as possible, and I will be able to turn the situation around......"

"Okay, General Secretary! I know what to do! Forscheva said firmly, for Forcaiva, she must put Khrushchev in the position, and the cadres of the entire Moscow know that she has a close relationship with Khrushchev, and once Khrushchev falls, she will definitely not end well.

Zhukov and Khrushchev had known each other as early as when Khrushchev was still in power in Ukraine, and when he got rid of Beria, Khrushchev used the army to successfully win the first party struggle after Stalin's death. For the first time, the Soviet army entered politics as a significant force. This was absolutely impossible under Stalin, and it was in such a climate that Zhukov rose to prominence. At the 20th Congress of the CPSU, Zhukov was elected a member of the Central Committee and an alternate member of the Presidium of the Central Committee.

Now Zhukov has absolute authority within the Soviet Red Army with the help of Khrushchev, Khrushchev believes that Zhukov should be on his side, his prediction is not wrong, in the past few years of efforts, Khrushchev left a good impression on the Soviet Red Army, so after Vorcaiva saw Zhukov, she did not bother to win Zhukov's support, and informed Zhukov of the situation that Khrushchev could turn the situation around.

"Now if you want to convene the Central Committee immediately, you have to be quick, and only if all the members of the Central Committee are in Moscow, can Malenkov and them have to agree!" Zhukov twitched his big nose, squinted his eyes, and said, "You tell the General Secretary that I have a way to find all the members of the Central Committee within three days, and Comrade General Secretary must withstand the pressure within two days......

"Marshal Zhukov, I will definitely inform the General Secretary of the news of the victory of Marshal Victory!" With Zhukov's support, Vorcaiva had confidence that Khrushchev could turn the situation around.

It was not until 20 June that Kirichko and Saburov were rushed out of Leningrad and Minsk respectively, and Khrushchev, who had rested for two days, went all out to attack Malenkov this time, and the two sides had a heated debate on the rostrum.

"Now that Comrade Kirichchenko and Comrade Saburov have returned, now we must vote on whether Khrushchev is qualified for the post of General Secretary!" Malenkov exclaimed, "Vote now, let's see what the comrades of the Presidium think about this matter......"

Saburov and Kirichenko made a different choice, that is, each side of the two sides had one more vote, and Khrushchev's side was still in the minority, Malenkov stood up and said, "According to the unanimous vote of the members of the Presidium of the Central Committee of the CPSU, Khrushchev must resign and take full responsibility for the current predicament......"

"I will never resign, I am the first secretary of the Soviet Union!" Khrushchev stood up and protested in front of everyone, "The Presidium of the Central Committee has no right to remove me from the post of first secretary, and there are only eleven members of the Presidium of the Central Committee who cannot represent the will of the entire ** and want to remove me from my post!" It is necessary to convene a meeting of the Central Committee, which alone has the right to do so......"

"I think Comrade Khrushchev's words are very reasonable, since Comrade Khrushchev is the first secretary of our party, then it is better to convene a plenary meeting of the Central Committee to decide on his whereabouts and stays!" At this time, Zhukov stood up with a senseless look on his face and made a statement on behalf of the Soviet military, indicating that he was on Khrushchev's side.

"Well, now for the time being! The garrison is still blockading the Kremlin, and the members of the Presidium continue to wait here...... "Before Malenkov and Molotov could speak, Marshal Bulganin immediately said. This can be regarded as a direct acquiescence to Zhukov's proposal, and after the adjournment, Zhukov, Folseva, Brezhnev and others immediately left the Kremlin.

Forteva summoned all the members of the Central Committee in Moscow, and Sherepin and his family were the first to arrive and express their support for Folseva, who, escorted by Sherepin, gave several hours of speeches to the Central Committee members present, persuading them to support Khrushchev.

After the speech, Vorseva rushed to the KGB headquarters on Lubyanka Square and saw that the chairman of the KGB had handed over Khrushchev's orders to him, ordering the KGB to ensure order in Moscow and the security of the Kremlin.

At this time, Sherepin led all the members of the Central Committee in Moscow to the Kremlin, and stayed in the conference room of the presidium to express their support for Khrushchev; after Zhukov returned to the Ministry of Defense, he immediately convened a meeting of the air force generals of the Moscow Military District, planned the air force route overnight, and arranged for cars and military planes to bring the Central Committee members scattered throughout the Soviet Union to Moscow according to the distance.

At dusk on June 21, the sun had not completely set, and the setting sun had gilded the entire city of Moscow with a layer of golden sand, Serov came to the Moscow airport, looking at the Moscow airport, which was still relatively empty, Serov sang and shouted, "The KGB internal affairs troops listened to the order, blocked the entire airport to ensure that the airport was unimpeded, pay attention to the safety of all flights, and it is very important for flights to land at the airport from now on......

At this time, all the leaders of the airport were nowhere to be seen in the conference room of the airport, and in this conference room were the chairman of the KGB and some members of the presidium, including the directors of the first, second, and third general bureaus of the KGB.

After going back and forth between the Ministry of Defense, the KGB, and the Komsomol headquarters for the past two days, Forteva appeared in the waiting hall of the Moscow airport, where she was ready to wait for the meeting of the members of the Central Committee who had arrived from all over the country......

Since the evening, the Central Committee members of the big cities not far from Moscow have begun to arrive in Moscow, especially the Central Committee of Ukraine, all of whom are Khrushchev's subordinates...... (To be continued......)
