Chapter 265 Manned Spaceflight

"The situation on the entire earth is in our minds. Our Yuri can accurately grasp any possible threat, even if he just showed signs!" In terms of praising others, Brezhnev himself will not be inferior, such as praising Selov next to Ustinov. This made Selov, who has always regarded himself as a king with a strong mouth, feel the pressure.

Brezhnev can be said to be the best-known cadre in the Soviet leadership at present. It would be fine if it was just that. But he has a good reputation among the people. Compared with Khrushchev and Kozlov with bad temper, Brezhnev gave anyone a good impression. Even when facing the irritable Kozlov, Brezhnev also greeted him with a smile, leaving Kozlov without any temper.

Shelov was quite uncomfortable in the face of Brezhnev's praise. If he hadn't known about the experience of Semichasne in history, he would have even felt that Brezhnev in front of him was also good and a person who could speak. That's right, Brezhnev was a person who could speak, but just listening to other people's opinions when speaking does not mean that your opinions will be adopted, and it would be impolite to leave directly. Since Slov is here, he should be a good example of a security cadre. Just answer whatever the two big guys asked.

"The importance of information lies in establishing a completely unequal advantage. Anything happened on the earth. We knew that a while ago and a while later, we knew that a while was completely different. In fact, all aspects were like this. It is not just limited to security work!" Selov accepted Brezhnev's praise directly. At present, his relationship with Brezhnev is based on this kind of information asymmetry. No one knew that Kozlov would suffer a stroke, but Selov knew that this was also an advantage.

"The complete information advantage is very difficult to establish, and it is the case for us and Americans!" Ustinov did not agree with Selov, because he never despised the Americans. This vice-chairman of the Council of Ministers, who was born in a military cadre, is stronger than many generals of the Ministry of Defense, but he also knows to respect his opponents.

"But it is very simple to establish this information advantage for small countries. And any industry has a certain first-mover advantage. In terms of this first-mover advantage, it is very difficult for others to catch up with it as long as you don't make mistakes!" Selov said calmly, "Unless Americans can obtain alien technology, as long as the Soviet Union succeeds first, Americans can't help but win back their disadvantages..."

As for computer networks, if the difficult countries are Western Europe, the United States and several Commonwealth countries, if the Soviet Union first established the Internet, it would be necessary to isolate whoever, and perhaps the US computer network would become a local area network.

"Alien technology? Haha. It seems that in the eyes of our security cadres, the United States is actually not scary!" Ustinov pushed the glasses on his nose, and this tone seemed to be a little ridiculous.

But it doesn't matter. Selov said slowly without caring, "As long as there is another Korean War, we can achieve an equal balance with the United States. Americans can't bear it, it depends on where they choose to take action..."

"When do you think where will you do it?" Ustinov wanted to laugh very much. Shelov was an intelligence manager, right, but the result of the Korean War was not enough for Americans to remember? Can Shelov still command the American army to trample on the pit?

"Vietnam? It's the fastest development there. And the Vietnamese themselves also mean to go south!" Serov said as if he was fine, "Maybe some false information should be created to indicate that the Soviet Union is supporting Vietnam's goal, so the time may be earlier!"

Seeing the conversation between the two people a little unpleasant, Brezhnev immediately got up to smooth things over. He naturally stood on Ustinov's side, but he was also unwilling to have a conflict with Xie Lieping, not to mention that there was no need for conflict between the two sides.

"The next ten years are a critical moment for us to turn to the offensive. At that time, our national strength will enter a relatively balanced stage with the United States. I have set a plan for subversion for the next ten years. They are all locked in the safe at No. 11, Ruby Yangka Square!"

No one is too concerned about the plan. I believe that even Ustinov did not take Selov's words seriously. Let time prove it. As long as the Vietnam War begins, Ustinov will definitely think about the conversation between the two today. As for whether he will feel ashamed, this is not something Selov could have expected. It is better to commit suicide in shame.

"Yuri, Comrade Ustinov doesn't know much about the situation of the KGB, but I know that you both are for our motherland better!" What Serov didn't expect was that Brezhnev, who had left after a while, came back, obviously had not given up on his efforts to talk to Serov.

"Comrade Brezhnev, Comrade Ustinov may not be familiar with our KGB work. I don't mind this! My argument is very serious. It takes about ten years to make the Soviet Union and the United States relatively balanced." Selov held the cigarette butt and did not leave any way out for himself. "When that day comes, maybe everyone in our alliance will not be surprised..."

Just like the Oriental One launched immediately, Khrushchev's continuous funding cuts led to the success of today's Soviet space. It can be said that the Khrushchev era is much more difficult than the Brezhnev era.

The day passed quickly, and the time for the launch of Orient One was getting closer. In Baikonur, Brezhnev, Negelin, Ustinov, Sergei Korolev and Krim Alievich Krimo were all waiting for the last moment to arrive nervously. Everyone was holding their breath, and an unspeakable pressure filled the air with subtle and pervasiveness.

At this time, even the most optimistic people can feel the pressure of the atmosphere, and no one can be sure whether it will succeed. For the aerospace experts of Sergei Korolev and Krim Alievich Krimo, this is also the last step in testing the results.

Even Moscow, Khrushchev, Mgoyan and other members of the Central Presidium are all on the launch frame of the Baikonur Space Center. Whether manned spaceflight has attracted praise from the world or failure has become a laughing stock in the American population, they are all today...

A few minutes before launch, Gagarin recorded the following statement: "Dear, friends I know and do not know, my dear fellow countrymen and people all over the world! In a few minutes, a powerful Soviet rocket will send my spacecraft into the vast outer space. This is what I want to tell you. My whole future life is just like this thrilling moment for me. I think I can concentrate my strength to complete the mission I am expected to do."

The countdown began Gagarin entered the interior of the Oriental 1 spacecraft at the launch site. His image was recorded by the camera on the spacecraft and transmitted to the TV screen in the launch control room. Sergei Korolev said to the microphone: "zarya called kedr (Gagarin's code name), and the countdown was ready to begin." Gagarin replied: "I understand, feel good, be excited, and be ready."

Oriental One was launched from the station No. 1 of Baikonur launch site. When the ignition took off, everyone in the control room was holding their breath and watching the movement on the screen. Korolev directed: "Junior... Intermediate... Main engine... Take off! I wish you a smooth flight and everything is normal at present." Gagarin replied: "Let's go!"

After two minutes of flight, the four boosters were exhausted and separated from the core stage. After fifty-six seconds, the fairing was separated, and the window and optical positioning device under Gagarin's feet were unveiled. After five minutes of flight, the first stage rocket was exhausted and separated, and the last stage rocket continued to send the spacecraft into orbit. The rocket was still flying, sending Orient One into orbit. Gagarin reported: "The flight continued. I could see the earth, the visibility was good,..., I could see almost everything. There must be a lot of space under the cumulus clouds. Flight continued, everything was normal."

"Send a report to the Moscow side to inform Comrade Khrushchev, Comrade Kozlov, Comrade Migoyan and other comrades of the Central Presidium that the rocket has been launched. Lieutenant General Varianjing, find a comrade to send all the reports of Comrade Gagarin to the capital Moscow and hand them over to the Moscow Radio Station. Comrade Meshatsev is waiting for the news here!" Serov watched the low-eyed Dongfang-1 take off after several minutes. After waking up from his sleepwalking state, he quickly issued a series of orders, and then looked at all the humans in the entire control room, "Thanks to our scientists and thousands of comrades who have worked for this launch, we seem to have succeeded now..."

Sergei Korolev hugged Krim Alievich Krimo, the two Soviet space experts did not hide their joy at all. For them, their favorite majors have achieved great success today, which is more exciting than any material reward.

"Today is a great day. The Soviets first escaped the shackles of gravity and soared in the sky!" Brezhnev was not a master of speech, but this simple congratulation could also achieve a sensational effect in such an environment. Although Brezhnev was not good at speaking, he made up for this deficiency with hugs and handshakes.

All this fell into Serov's eyes. The rigorous scientists vented their emotions rarely. In any case, this was a day worth remembering. They took two steps back and left the control room. The No. 1 launch pad by the window was already empty. The red flag of the Soviet outside was still fluttering in the wind. "I once swore to the red flag to crush all the enemies for the Soviet!" Serov said to himself, remembering the day he woke up in Azerbaijan, which was the same red flag. (To be continued.) Mobile users please visit http://m.piaotian.net
