This may be the result of the military government considering the problem from its own standpoint. From a neutral perspective, it cannot be said that the Sudanese military government must be wrong. Soldiers have always been the most opposed to the separatist forces of the country. Although it is not all, it is generally the case. South Sudan’s 600,000 square kilometers of land has a tropical savanna climate. Over the past year, Soviet biologists have instilled the argument that Sudan itself has good conditions and can become a strong power with just a little development. This argument made the Sudanian military believe it. Yes, the basic conditions of Sudan are the first in Africa and should be a passionate big country.

That's what the generals holding Sudan's military power think. The progress of Sudan in agriculture over the past year also shows whether Soviet scientists said anything wrong, and the achievements made the generals more confident. Simply put, it has expanded...

Since there has been a great harvest this year, it means that Sudan is just as the Soviets said. Since the basic conditions are so good, it should not be much worse next year. From the perspective of the military, the first thing to do is to strengthen the army and then eliminate the separatist forces in the south, and kill the black people in the south can only become the veritable African territorial power. Otherwise, the number one territory can only be said on paper.

In fact, we need to find similar countries in the history of the Cold War. It should be similar to the development model of the Vietnamese during the Cold War. Vietnam can be said to have been assisted by China and the Soviet Union, but Vietnam's economic achievements are not good, and it is even far inferior to North Korea at the same time. It has a strong relief nature. Among them, the largest amount is oil, up to five million tons; followed by food, 4.5 million tons; and there is also a joke of 100 million meters of cloth. Le Duan asked Brezhnev for assistance, and Bo said: There are no items, please tighten the belt yourself. Le Duan said: Please give the belt yourself.

For example, Sudan now destroys the south first, and then puts all hope on Soviet aid. He expects the Soviet Union to provide weapons and ammunition to support the Sudanese military's bloody battle. Selov only comments on this, "I think beautifully..."

Even in terms of internationalism, the Soviet Union did not have this obligation. Sudan is not a socialist country. If Sudan is in power, you can consider it. However, General Abud's military government did not want the Soviet Union to work so hard. The Soviet Union's aid to Vietnam was economically a loss of money. The reason why it was willing to do this was because the United States was deeply trapped in Vietnam and suffered greater losses than the Soviet Union. The United States did not come to beat Sudan, so why did the Soviet Union give it blood transfusion to Sudan?

To aid a country with no industrial foundation is a bottomless pit, especially to a country that still feels good and thinks it is not bad. Sudan must have basic industrial capabilities, even the ability of light industry. It cannot become a big rural area. Otherwise, the cost of this assistance will be too high.

So Selov was silent for a moment, considering the current domestic inventory of old weapons, he decided to remain unchanged and continue to carry forward the spirit of internationalism, "This way, General Abud, I already understand what you mean. The Sudanese military's plan to upgrade weapons will be left to us. At the same time, the support for light industry remains unchanged. Liberation of South Sudan and the developing countries can be carried out simultaneously. The population of your government in the north is twice that of the south. You can continue to complete the Soviet industrial support project while fighting! In order to help Sudan have management talents, I think Sudan can select a group of officers or people with good character and academic performance to study in the Soviet Union."

"General Selov, thank you for your support for our country." Selov's generosity was beyond the expectations of the chairman of the Sudan Revolutionary Committee. He originally thought that he could only choose one of industrial aid and military aid. After all, facing a super powerful Soviet Union, and also needed the support of the Soviet Union to recover the south, he was unwilling to create the impression that the lion spoke loudly.

If I had known this was the case, Selov should have used Messing to teach him the perception of General Abud on the day of the negotiations, so that there would be no random thoughts. The reason for insisting on continuing the original plan of assistance rather than aid to Vietnam, which is a rescue-like aid. The completion was based on cost considerations, not much for the Sultan.

In a country with no foundation, the Soviet aid cannot change anything. It not only needs to assist various light industrial facilities. It also needs a railway as a hub for Sudan to connect Egypt in the north. I believe that as a channel for transporting Sudan’s food, the Nile River’s status as Sudan’s transportation is self-evident, but its capacity is still slightly insufficient. Selov knows this, General Abud knows, and Nasser knows it.

After chatting for a while, Selov left General Abud's residence, like an internationalist fighter, let General Abud wait for his good news. This leader of the Sudanese military government couldn't help but sigh, he is such a good person...

The word "good man" is definitely worthy of Selov. A railway can allow the Soviet Union to send Sudan's food cloud abroad. The granary in the north can only solve this year's problem. If you want to eat Sudan's food every year, you must have such a railway. When you ask Sudanese students to study in Moscow, you will be a group of ignorant and passionate young people, and when you come back, you may become proletarian revolutionaries. The Soviet environment may be difficult to attract Americans, but it is simply too easy to attract people from this kind of transportation, communication and yelling.

Selov, who returned to the Soviet embassy, ​​told other people about this news, which caused a burst of laughter. Of course, laughter was divided into many kinds, and what these members of the Soviet delegation were saying was a ridicule...

The Soviet Union has always faced industries that are backward in state aid foundations. It is actually easy to understand. It is a country that is completely a big rural country that can help the Soviet Union, and even if it can help the Soviet Union, it is limited. Most countries with complete infrastructure and good economy are mixed with Americans. Most of the countries left for the Soviet Union are countries like Sudan, which are also mixed in quality. The first type is China. Once developed, India can definitely help the Soviet Union, but this country is generally difficult to control. From the evaluation of the Soviet Union, the development of China and India can help the Soviet Union the most, but it cannot be both fish and bear's paw. It would be great if China and India have no territorial conflicts, so there is no need to force the Soviet Union to choose a side.

The second type is the Arab countries like Egypt, including Syria, Iraq, and Jordan. However, these countries have nothing but oil, and their domestic desert agriculture is worse than the Soviet Union. The third type is Sudan, which not only has no advantages mentioned above, but also has the largest number of religious contradictions in China. In a sense, there is a better choice for the Soviet Union, and there are no need to work so hard to deal with such countries.

"Industrial assistance is still necessary, otherwise such Sudan will have limited help to the Soviet Union and railways are also needed. Comrades understand the importance of Sudan to our Soviet Union. In terms of potential, this country is the first in Africa. Every achievement we have achieved from this country is a huge help to the motherland. The negotiations will continue at noon tomorrow, and we will strive to sign the treaty within one day!" Selov used administrative orders to boost morale for the comrades in these negotiations.

After saying that, Selov found a telegram from the Embassy in Sudan and issued an inexplicable order, "Appoint an order to Chinese military-industrial enterprises and ask Chinese military-industrial enterprises to help build 50,000 Type 56 automatic rifles, plus 10 million bullets." Then he ordered Major General Leonid of the Aswan military base to get tens of thousands of rifles for emergency transport to Sudan.

Later, Moscow called back and asked Selov why he had to place an order from the Chinese company. In response, Selov's answer was, "China's Type 56 automatic rifles cost three times lower than ours. A ship from the Far East to China to ship to Alexandria is still cheaper than ours. Moreover, China's rifles are not like ours, which are used in many rare metals in them, so there is a slight gap in performance. This is of course not a big problem, but weapons made purely of steel can easily rust in the Sudan climate. This is simply great. We can order weapons from China continuously to Sudan."

The Soviet Union has always been willing to give up any resources in manufacturing weapons, and its representative work is all-titanium alloy submarines. You should know that even the United States dare not waste titanium alloys so much, but are used in fighter jets and aerospace fields, while the Soviet Union did this. If you can't catch up with it for the time being, start with the materials.

In the evening, Moscow called back, "I did a good job. We communicated with Comrade Dongfang after the 81-Country Conference today, and received a warm response. But we did not tell us about the purpose of these weapons."

For Serov, today's small measures were just an episode. However, later, the Soviet Union always found that for the sake of cost, it always imported light weapons from China and sold them, which aroused China's suspicion. Finally, it was discovered that a few years later, Andropov received a accusatory letter of protest, believing that such behavior of the Soviet Union ruined the reputation of Chinese manufacturing. Given that the KGB did a little unauthorized in this regard, Serov directly handed over the letter of protest in the drawer where the letter of protest was handed over by Andropov, and he didn't read it at all.

After communicating with General Abud, the subsequent negotiations did not hinder at all. The two sides happily signed a treaty of friendly cooperation between the two countries. Then General Abud sent a general to lead Selov to guard the northern grain warehouse to check. At the same time, Selov also ordered the Aswan military base to be prepared to accept it.
