Chapter 239 Advice to Andropov
This is just a deduction based on the ideas carried out by these marshals. A mature suggestion is put forward in advance to save the Soviet military-industrial system from many detours, which is more important than the production of one or two new weapons. For the Soviet Union, it is not necessary to learn from the aristocratic wars of the United States that bomb bicycles with missiles. This is how the Soviet war was fought. Head-on absolute crushing is the most suitable war for the Soviet Union. It is necessary to use precise guidance to reflect one's own strength. In addition to letting the Soviet Union spend more money, the improvement of the ability of the war is not obvious.
Learning other people's methods of war in the end is just to learn how to walk in Handan. This can be seen from the later war between France and Libya. The United States can use precisely guided bombs to bomb for a year and a half. France quickly put its war inventory to the bottom. It can be seen that not everyone can play the American way of war.
The most suitable one is oneself. The Soviet Union's large-scale assault force is its own thing and does not need to learn from anyone. In fact, any country can learn the Soviet Union's way of building an army. As long as there are 10,000 tanks in this country, the entire army is mechanized. Ten armored divisions may not make their enemies very scared, so what if there are 100?
Malinovsky discussed with his two main assistants, Commander-in-Chief Grechko, and Chief of Staff Zaharov, and the more he discussed, he became more and more surprised. The possible construction force of the tank army group, Selov seemed to be very proficient in the construction of the army group. In other words, the suggestion of the commander of the inner guard, the marshals, after deducing for a long time, they found that they had nothing to supplement. This is also natural, because this itself is the concept of the Soviet Red Army's army formation in the next twenty years. The Western August 1st exercise in history is a mature manifestation of the Soviet army's completion after the completion of the Soviet army.
"Yes, it seems that we have misunderstood you. It seems that you have learned a lot from Comrade Baglamiyang!" Marshal Malinovsky gave Selov a relatively good evaluation. Shellov was already content with a marshal's evaluation. If Marshal Malinovsky praised him as a peerless genius in all directions, it would be quite abnormal.
"Yes, uncle taught me a lot of things, and I will never benefit from it for the rest of my life!" Selov had no intention of accepting this credit. He just hoped that the proposal of a mature combat system would reduce the detours in the exploration process. As for how much money the Soviet military system could save, he didn't know. But he could find someone from the Planning and Economic Commission to calculate.
This time, the meeting involving the Ministry of Defense, the KGB and military-industrial enterprises, was almost unhindered under the auspices of Kozlov and Brezhnev. There was no objection, because this plan was more like a mature version of their already exploring the way to build an army.
After the meeting, Selov held up a copy of the military meeting and placed it in the hands of Lieutenant General Roman of the Military Administration. He was preparing to let Lieutenant General Roman receive the archives of the Military Administration, but this action still made these marshals feel a little uncomfortable. But just skipped it, and from Selov's rescue of Marshal Negelin from the explosion, to the suggestion of the Red Army's combat system today, the Ministry of Defense's hostility towards him is gradually reducing.
This should have been the case. The Military Administration is just a supervisory body. The order was issued by Khrushchev, the first secretary. The hostility of the Ministry of Defense was inexplicable. It was completely a pistachio of the newly established Military Administration as a soft persimmon. However, years of experience have shown that the Military Administration is not a soft persimmon, but the Ministry of Defense is relatively weak. If the old marshals of the Patriotic War were not still there, they might not have been tortured by Selov.
Before leaving the Ministry of Defense, Selov was modestly called over to scold Marshal Bagrami Yang and scolded him. This scene was seen by other marshals. In their eyes, Selov, who was like a villain, had no other moves except nodding when he was being taught by Marshal Bagrami Yang. He looked like a good baby.
"Is it New Year? I must visit my uncle's house. Yes, I miss my brother very much!" Shelov nodded constantly and expressed extraordinary respect to Marshal Baglamiyang. If this marshal had not given him a good starting point, a series of things that would have happened when he met Xie Lieping in the KGB later. Shelov was grateful for this. However, the relationship between the General Administration of Military Administration and the Red Army is relatively delicate. He deliberately kept a distance from Baglamiyang.
Today, Selov had something else to do. He also invited a friend to visit his home, and the other party was very willing. This person was Andropov, the Minister of the Central Liaison Department, and his wife.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, Selov returned home and prepared dinner with Valia for the evening. Sherov, the general secretary of the Soviet Union in history, dared not be a slight neglect. Andropov was not a close confidant of Brezhnev, or at least not a member of the Dnepr gang. He could survive under Brezhnev's nose for more than ten years and firmly controlled the KGB and ensured his status. This alone was worth learning from Selov. Semichasne, who was far stronger than him, was suppressed very miserably.
Similarly, Andropov managed the KGB like an iron barrel. Under the surveillance of three Brezhnev confidants as the first vice-chairmen, he never let the KGB's power fall. The methods were higher than those of Semichasne, who only had the ability to win the bull market with Brezhnev. Serov did not believe that Andropov had ascended the throne with conspiracy, and it could be said that he was entirely dependent on the strength of the KGB.
Tonight, Selov's villa was brightly lit, and Valia received the Andropovs very well, showing good cultivation. In fact, Selov generally has no room for performance in this occasion. Usually, he watches his wife perform, and most occasions are very effective. Having a beautiful wife is easier to let the other party down than to show up on his own.
Serve carefully prepared beef and borscht, plus king crab, red sausage and daleba, Selov also prepared additional vodka and gawas, so that the two people on the other side could choose at will. The rich food surprised Andropov. To be fair, Andropov was considered an honest cadre. The privilege of Soviet cadres was that they could reserve some products for you to buy, but it was definitely not a waste of money. Even Forteva often went to the market to buy vegetables, let alone other cadres.
"Comrade Serov prepared a dinner that was so sumptuous. I don't know how long it would take to purchase it!" Andropova said politely. Although Andropov himself did not speak, he meant almost this.
"We can get all the things on this earth, and this is not our boast. If we want to, there will be king crabs for sale in Moscow next year, and all kinds of fresh sea fish will fill the market!" Serov said to Andropov with some smugness, "Those small countries that think we will not be able to see with them. By then, our fleet of ocean fishing ships will be built, and large trawlers will destroy their fishermen."
One meaning can only be heard from Selov's mouth, that is hegemony. This tone made Andropov frown. To be fair, he did not like this tone, at least he was unwilling to express the problem so directly.
After drinking and eating, the two went upstairs, and Selov and Andropov continued to chat in the hall. The woman was very sensible and left the space to her men, who knew that their men were talking about important things.
Andropov was very interested in a sketch hanging on the wall. When Andropov fought guerrillas on the Sufen border, he suffered a kidney disease that had never been cured for life. As a soldier, he was naturally very interested in weapons and asked in an uncertain tone, "Is this a ground-effect aircraft?"
"That's right, it's the ground-effect aircraft!" Selov said to the Caspian monster he drew with satisfaction. The Soviet Union's research on ground-effect aircraft has begun since this era. Andropov may have heard rumors or had some knowledge of this, so Selov was not surprised by this. However, if he could see other important values, Selov did not believe it. At present, the Soviet Union is only in the research stage and there has not been any actual ground-effect aircraft yet.
As long as the Soviet Union's research has made a major breakthrough, what's the problem with submitting this sketch for reference? In fact, there are sketches of Su 27 and MiG 29 in the study. These are things from the Soviet Union themselves, and he is not prepared to use this thing to make money.
As for why I don’t hand over it now, it’s because of the engine problem. No matter how well-designed the aircraft cannot fly, it will be a waste, and it may also affect the original deployment plan in history.
This episode did not attract Andropov for how long it was. There were more pictures of imagination in this era. Among the various propaganda posters in the Soviet Union, there were also many exaggerated propaganda pictures of spacecraft. Andropov just thought that Selov was also such a person.
"At the beginning of this conference, I visited Sudan. I wonder what happened in the conference?" Serov, who returned from Sudan, was about to ask Andropov indirectly about the situation of the Communist Party and Workers' Party Congress from the 81 countries. As the Minister of the Central Liaison Department, Andropov knew no less than the members of the Central Presidium. Because it was his duty to contact the revolutionary forces of the world Communist Party itself. It can be said that Andropov was the foreign minister who specialized in dealing with socialist countries and political parties, and his specific work was a bit like the original Communist International.
"How to say it? Our debate with comrades on the East is the feature of this conference. We have to say that our comrades on the East gave us great problems, and it was not easy to come up with consistent opinions in the end." Andropov shook his head and sighed, "About one-sixth of the political parties tend to comrades on the East, and we are at a disadvantage in this debate."
"How many of the one-sixth of the political parties are quite suspicious. At the last World Communist Party Congress, there were several political parties that had not yet been established. It is hard to say whether they were real idealists or whether our American counterparts supported us and disgusted us!" Shelov's mouth curled a cold smile and said, "But don't think that only they have the ability to penetrate. I'm not a waste of money. If they can create a red party, can't I support a red capitalist?"
This year, the KGB finally had some funds for activity. Selov's plan this year is to play elitism, select several countries to support several big capitalists, and use the KGB information to help these candidates rise. Two of them are in the United States. As an internationalist, it is not so incomprehensible to use the KGB to help immigrants realize the American dream, right?
Judging from China's current strength, its current international influence is obviously inflated, which is also the opportunity given to China. Otherwise, without such a debate, the influence of China's always sing against the tune. The Soviet Union would not tolerate China's constant sing against the tune within the camp. It must find a way to cool down the increasingly fierce debate between the two countries. However, this matter cannot be done by the Soviet Union. It also has to consider the current situation of China. China has nothing, but is at a time when national confidence is most intense. If the Soviet Union takes measures to suppress China, it will easily have a counterproductive effect.
"In fact, it is not difficult to hold our Warsaw Pact country. Comrade Andropov, you only need to do one thing." Selov leaned closer, "The organization has always been a huge delegation, with members mainly middle and lower-level cadres, and the number must be large. We should investigate in the name of visiting the construction of comrades on the comrades. As long as we see the real situation in China now, we don't need to say anything. Without any attacks on comrades on comrades on comrades, the middle and lower-level cadres of those brother countries will naturally make their own judgments. After all, our national strength and the prosperity of the people are far above them..."
"The number of people must be large? Yuri, do you have a destination for inspection?" Andropov thought for a while and felt that it should be fine.
"All the cities where we aid comrades in Oriental construction projects are located are not under investigation. The inspection is set in inland provinces and places with small populations. If it is rural areas, it is better!" Serov thought for a moment, "As long as comrades from other countries see the real situation, it is more useful than how many debates we initiated on both sides."
This may cause temporary dissatisfaction, but the Chinese New Year will take place in a few days. After more than a year, the copy of the Cuban missile crisis and border war will be opened. I believe that even if the separatist crisis between China and the Soviet Union does not disappear, it will become within a controllable range. It is not because the combat supply in the plateau area cannot be increased. It doesn’t matter. The Soviet Air Force cannot reach the United States, and it is still easy to reach South Asia for transport planes taken from Central Asia. At that time, take a camera and let the ethnic minorities in Central Asia wear PLA uniforms, find a mountainous place, and pose for photos of the confrontation between China and the Soviet Union, and post it to the newspaper to block the Indians’ mouths.
As an intelligence organization, how could the KGB not even be able to produce false information? If it really doesn't work, I would ask someone to lie on the ground and touch some blood, causing the Soviet Union to be shot dead for India. If one person is not enough, then there will be a group of people. Anyway, several satellites will be over Cuba at that time, so how can Selov fake it? (To be continued.)
