Chapter 113 Bucharest
Unlike the last time I returned to China, the General Administration of Military Administration now has the first deputy director Roman, which is no different from before Selov went abroad. It can be said that Roman, an experienced veteran agent, has dealt with many problems that make Selov feel very difficult. "We have selected the disarmament troops, and most of the troops are in the mainland military region! This process is naturally not easy, and I have been under a lot of pressure on the Ministry of Defense. However, after President Xie Lieping communicated with the First Secretary, the Ministry of Defense still agreed to the disarmament troops we chose!"
Among the old group of internal affairs cadres, Roman is one of the few who likes to enjoy life very much. He is not willing to be in the office when talking about work, but chooses to take a walk or eat to achieve his goals more gently.
"Which soldier would like to see his army decrease in number? However, it is a pity that some high-quality commanders of some troops have asked them to transfer to the local area to work. We should select them and make a list to let these commanders work in the border guards and internal forces. Will it be better? This will also make our KGB armed forces more professional and eliminate those that should be eliminated, and the highly professional commanders should be retained!" Selov suggested.
Selov is a man with military rank and can understand the dissatisfaction of the veteran general of the Ministry of National Defense with Khrushchev's withdrawal of the army. However, he had to supervise and follow the orders of the first secretary. Although the disarmament is an order, he can flexibly turn around in the process, which is actually a good thing for the KGB.
Including the number of disarmament in this batch, the Soviet Union has already disarmament a total of 2.3 million. The huge Red Army is becoming less and less unattainable. In addition, it has been attacking Bonapartists. I believe Khrushchev believes that the Red Army will not be a new soldier like Marshal Zhukov who always interferes in government affairs.
The Red Army is actually beneficial to the KGB. Think about it, if the number of Red Army personnel is still so large, even the KGB cannot check and balance the Red Army. The smaller the number of Red Army personnel, the more the check and balance the KGB can be displayed. Comparison is valuable. After Khrushchev demolished the KGB, he found that for the rebellious soldiers of the Red Army, the KGB institutions still need to be used to be more handy.
"The Internal Affairs and the Border Guards do need a group of professional intermediate officers, which can eliminate our officers who are not qualified enough. This way, we can eliminate those who should be eliminated and retain the officers who are really needed!" Roman nodded and recognized Selov's judgment. Eating the Red Army's dismissal officers can make the KGB's armed forces more professional. "By the way. The autumn recruitment work has been completed. This year, we have conducted large-scale recruitment in Central Asia, with about 57,000 people, and most of them will enter the Internal Affairs Force. According to your idea, a large number of people will replace the advisory group in the Middle East, and the remaining people will be in the Azerbaijan training camp as instructors in Iraq, accompanying them to train! The specific information is in my office, do you want to take a look?"
"Director Roman, that's not needed. I used to work under your guidance! I have always admired your ability. In fact, I think Chairman Xie Lieping is a little anxious to fully use high-education cadres. Some veteran cadres' work experience cannot be replaced by high-education, but I can't stop it!" Xie Luof said in an apology, "But I have been trying to find a way to find a place to let you veteran anti-counterfeiting workers have room to play. I think the Iraqi Communist Party needs you, cadres who understand the cruel and fighting spirit, to provide guidance..."
The coup that overthrew the Iraqi Kingdom, in fact, the United States had naturally been in contact with Kasem for a long time, but he didn't expect that Kasem, a nationalist, had just taken office as abolished the Baghdad Treaty used to block the Soviet Union and withdrew from the organization. The United States, which had no choice but to steal the chicken, has always adopted a pragmatic parade, as long as it has a value-added object. The United States has never cared about whether it was slapped in the face by the other party. Historically, after Kasem withdrew from the Baghdad Treaty Organization, the United States still did not give up its contact with Kasem. In the end, Kasem's doubts about communism were used to eradicate the Iraqi Communist Party, which had nearly 300,000 members. Although it lost Iraq, it did not allow pro-Soviet forces to stand at a disadvantage.
But how could Selov, who knew history, make this happen again? After Kasem came to power, the second round of operations was launched and the Iraqi Shiites came out to fire on Kasem. The reason was very simple. Kasem's officer class was more Sunni. Although the strong wind did not blow away the flames several times, under the repeated ignitions of Selov, the arsonist, finally broke out in the suppression of Shiites, which ignited the fuse of the Iraqi civil war.
After seeing history, Selov did not find the Communist Party that could not be fought. Especially in the era when the socialist camp was in full swing in the early Cold War, Iraq sent party members to Azerbaijan, and had the help of the General Administration of Border Defense in military training. He was not worried! However, political infiltration still needs to be strengthened. A large number of internal affairs cadres in Roman's era had a lot of experience in this regard.
"Do you want to train political cadres in Iraq at the same time?" Roman immediately understood Selov. He hoped that Roman could find a group of such cadres and come back to train a group of political commissars and cadres from the Ministry of Internal Affairs for the Iraqi Communist Party.
"Yes, the Iraqi Communist Party is the smallest force in the current situation in Iraq! Chairman Xie Lieping and I are the opinion of not trying to tease other forces and stimulate the nerves of those forces! Iraq is a country with a strong religious atmosphere. If the Iraqi Communist Party is too high-profile, it is easy to form a situation of attacking people, and it is easy to get support from religious forces. When it is at a disadvantage, you must concentrate your own strength to prevent being infiltrated by the enemy! Political workers are necessary. Only by ensuring the loyalty of party members can you develop more, otherwise you will be destroyed directly and even better wishes cannot be implemented!" Xie Luof said solemnly.
Almost all Communists have appeared, and they have cruel self-punishment! This is because the Communist Party has just emerged, atheism, class struggle, and capitalists have stirred up the nerves of many people. The Communist Party who insisted on these proposals cannot count the number of enemies, and any inattention will lead to annihilation of the entire army. Therefore, for the early Communist Party, eliminating the enemy and eliminating the traitors were equally important, and all Communists who have passed the armed struggle process are no exception.
The current Iraqi Communist Party is also in an environment of hostility in the early days. However, the Iraqi forces are now in a group, no one takes them seriously. But as long as the Iraqi Communist Party grows to a certain level, it will definitely cause a joint blow. The first is atheism, which makes the two major factions of Shiites and Sunnis unable to bear it. Socialism is also unacceptable to the bourgeoisie. It is sooner or later to fight the decisive battle. Now the understanding within the unified party is necessary.
"It is not difficult to have rich experience in political workers. I have many friends waiting for retirement in Gruu. They are all political cadres who retired from the KGB. They can fully play a role in warming up!" This problem is really a problem in the current KGB, but there is no shortage of cadres in this area in Gruu.
The smooth resolution of this matter made Selov sigh again, how correct it was to ask Roman to come out to preside over the work of the General Administration of Military Administration. The group of cadres who were cleaned up by Xie Lieping may not have much education, but their experience in the struggle between the enemy and us is far from comparable to the large number of Communist Youth League cadres who have been airborne.
This is also the reason why Selov has been persuading Xie Lieping not to clean up the old-school cadres of the KGB so quickly. Only by letting the cadres of the Communist Youth League learn the struggle experience of the old-school cadres can the KGB's strength be preserved to the greatest extent. Two years ago, the London Intelligence Network was sent by the MI6 department, and there were also reasons for this. In the end, the London head who had returned to China returned to re-establish the intelligence network.
"I will go abroad in a few days. Director Roman will still need the help of this work!" Serov said a little apologetically. The purpose is naturally to be held at the Bucharest Conference soon. This is a good time to communicate with other brother countries. In his plan, such conferences should be held as usual to increase communication within the socialist camp.
"Okay, don't worry, there will be no problem with the General Administration! I will contact my old friend in Gruu right away!" Roman stopped and stretched his waist and said, "I'm old, I've been away for so long today! I'll go back first..."
Serov pointed his head slightly and went directly to the First General Administration to discuss the matters after the meeting with Lieutenant General Sakhatovsky.
"The French have arrived in Vienna and agreed to us to negotiate in a place near the Austrian border in Democratic Germany. It seems that the people from the 7th French Military Intelligence Bureau also know that too many spies in Vienna are likely to leak news!" Lieutenant General Sarkhatovsky said, "I just don't know how much power the people who come to negotiate with us have and whether they can make the decision for Charles de Gaulle!"
"Actually, we don't have the ability to make a decision. This time we and the French are testing each other! Maybe we won't reach any agreement, but I don't care! Algeria is not from the Soviet Union, so whoever feels sorry for him knows it!" Selov had a stance of sitting firmly on Diaoyutai. The two directors of the General Administration looked at each other and laughed...
