Semichasne went to France one step earlier than Selov, with the purpose of going to Paris to communicate with the French and seeing if we could bring back the officers of the advisory group captured by Poland in the Algerian War. There were not many of them, about one hundred people, and Polish Minister of the Interior Korzinski and Semichasne went together.

After Selov went to India in two days, the security work in the Soviet Union will be handled by First Vice Chairman Yitvasov.

"We need to suggest to the central government that we must find ways to establish standards for grain reserves. The climate of the alliance is too unstable. This year's bumper harvest may be reduced next year. We also need feed grain to support huge livestock industry and livestock. If there is no accumulation every year, it will be easy to disclose due to weather problems." In the conference room of the KGB headquarters, Selov began to think about a more reliable proposal. The previous proposal has been rejected by Xie Lieping. Now he is preparing to do some real good things. As soon as he became a member of the Central Committee, he always has to make a proposal. If you pass or not, it will be said otherwise.

The Soviet Union's grain imports grew rapidly, and some years were as high as tens of millions of tons. The main purpose of the Soviet Union's large-scale grain import was to solve the serious shortage of feed grain. At present, the Soviet Union needs 50 million tons of grain every year, plus seeds, industrial and other grains totaling less than 100 million tons. Despite the lack of harvest, the Soviet Union's grain production in recent years is still around 1.2 billion tons. Obviously, it is not a problem to meet the above needs.

However, the Soviet Union actually needs no less feed than people eat every year. Therefore, most of the grain imported by the Soviet Union is actually used for feed (corn and beans). Increase grain reserves and ensure stable supply. Although the Soviet Union had 2.30 million hectares of arable land, natural conditions were extremely unfavorable to agricultural production. Only one percent of the arable land in the country was in areas with rainfall of more than 700 mm, while more than 60% of the arable land was in areas with annual rainfall of less than 300 mm. Periodic early disasters seriously affected agricultural production and made grain production extremely unstable. Therefore, if there is no large amount of reserves, this situation is difficult to cope with. Third, to meet the demand of grain exports and the demands of the eastern region, the Soviet Union exported part of the grain to the outside world every year, and the export target countries were often far away from the Soviet grain producing areas; in addition, the Soviet Union had to transport more than 10 million tons of grain from its European production areas to the eastern region every year.

"If our alliance is only satisfied with keeping people full, we don't need to consider this issue. From grain production to reserve system, it is completely sufficient. But in fact, if there are many places where food is needed, both alcohol and animal husbandry need food. Especially according to reports in recent years, the food gap in animal husbandry is gradually rising!" Serov, who holds the pen, focuses on the food problem in the report. Yes, it is also a food problem, which is always this problem.

The purpose of this report is that the Soviet Union must establish a food reserve system under favorable circumstances. During the Stalin period, it ordered the establishment of a reserve committee. The strategic materials reserved within a few years were the basic guarantee for the Soviet Union to get out of the dilemma of World War II. Even in the most difficult period of the Goma Map reform and the Soviet Union fell into a comprehensive food deficit, the Soviet Union still did not dare to use its own strategic reserves.

Considering that Stalin's strategic material reserves began in the 1930s, we can actually think that the reserve system actually had a very serious military color, and was actually for war. At that time, there was only the Soviet Union, an isolated socialist country in the world, and everyone except himself was an enemy. Reserves in this environment had nothing to do with civilian use. Serov's proposal was to establish a food reserve system related to Soviet society, which was simply for civilian use.

Selov dared not make the idea of ​​strategic reserves. To be honest, as long as the war did not come, the Ministry of Defense would not agree to use it, so those reserve materials that deal with the war were basically in a state of only entering but not leaving.

The Soviet state material storage warehouses were like small islands scattered on the territory of the Union. They were generally hidden and difficult for outsiders to detect. Some warehouses were even in underground caves more than 100 meters from the surface, where the materials stored were enough for residents of a medium-sized city to survive the nuclear winter.

As for the reserve bases closely related to the Soviet Union and the people, they were not military-purpose ones, and they could be said to be weak and pitiful. Shelov didn't know if a report was true in his previous life, saying that when the Soviet Union collapsed, Moscow's food supply was only enough for two or three days. It might not be so weak, but probably not much stronger.

The biggest correction of Selov over the past decade is the Soviet agriculture. He has always believed that the Soviet agriculture is very weak. Now it seems to be a misunderstanding. His thinking has gone from being weak in the Soviet agriculture to being actually not very weak. When he reached a very good concept, he is completely gradually cognitively level. Because he knows more and more now, he knows what aspects the Soviet food is used for.

In order to improve his report, Selov left Moscow and went to Tula to investigate a reserve warehouse built in a mountainous land where gypsum was produced in Tula Prefecture. This is a place suitable for preserving strategic materials. The entrance to the reserve warehouse is located in a very flat field, and a concrete wall covered with barbed power grid blocks people's curious eyes. The only way to enter the reserve warehouse is to enter the military passage, which can reach the warehouse in about one minute. All people entering the warehouse must go through strict registration procedures and wear special clothes and helmets. A few minutes later, the elevator reached the underground more than 100 meters above the surface, which is a branch warehouse in the Soviet National Reserve.

The person in charge of this reserve warehouse is Colonel Vasily. The name Vasily is a common name in the Soviet Union. The reserve warehouse looks ordinary, but from the perspective of maintaining human survival, these reserves are far more valuable than those treasures, and the storage is incomparable to the treasure cave. These reserve caves are ten meters wide and eleven meters high, and about one kilometer long. In a cave storing white sugar, they are neatly stacked with sugar bags that cannot be seen at first sight. In the cave next door, there are boxes of canned meat and canned fish that are invisible to see long walls. There are dozens of such food storage caves in this sub-store. Each cave has its own code name and stores different materials.

"General Selov, are you security cadres coming to investigate our Tula Reserve? Don't worry, these canned food, sugar and food are safe, and the underground passages are guarded by Red Army soldiers, so there will be no problems." Colonel Vasily introduced the situation here and tentatively tested Selov with words.

"I'm investigating the construction of the reserve warehouse to see if there is any reference!" Selov was not here to cause trouble for the Red Army. If the old men of the Ministry of National Defense knew that he was using the reserve warehouse, he would probably strangle him to death. Only those who had been in the difficult period of the Patriotic War knew how serious the food problem was.

Shelov also knew about this issue and was preparing to propose strengthening civilian food reserves when Sudan and India had a good impression of the Soviet Union. As for the idea of ​​building these strategic reserves underground, he did not have the courage.

"Is there any problem with our food? It seems that there will be no supply difficulties!" Colonel Vasily accompanied Selov back and forth, and sometimes walked to the wall next to him and guided the guards of various caves with the phone, so that Selov could visit them well.

The phone on this wall is very unique? It has a very Soviet style, because the phone is directly embedded on the cement wall. It looks like when the cement is not dry, press the phone directly on it, and the cement solidifies and becomes one.

"A cow, a pig, or even a sheep eats more food every day than we eat. If our population only considers how to eat, in fact, 50 to 60 million tons of grain are enough for the Alliance's people to eat, but do we eat beef? What about pork? The domestic animals also need to eat feed. Now the food consumed by the alliance's animal husbandry industry has almost equalized the food consumed by the population. At the current growth rate, most of our food will be given to domestic animals in a few years!" When Colonel Vasily came back after receiving the call, Selov looked at the flour in a warehouse and said, "The civil reserve system is far from your strategic reserve. I know that the Ministry of Defense will not agree to use these life-saving reserves in difficult times, so I want to strengthen the civil reserve system. This time I came here to see how your reserve warehouse was built, and then we started to build a grain reserve base on the ground..."

Tula's trip also wrote the experience of visiting the reserve warehouse in the report. This prediction made sense at the time. Naturally, people could not see the future. However, some future trends can be seen. The Soviet Union's animal husbandry industry was developing continuously, and food would definitely consume more and more. Did the Soviet Union lack human food? It was short of, but not so big. The biggest gap was feed food. Therefore, during the Cold War, the Soviet Union was importing food vigorously, and while it was fine, it was still providing food support to third world countries. Because the Soviet Union did not lack food for people to eat, but it was not too luxurious to feed livestock with flour.

Then, handing over this report to the Central Presidium, Selov began to prepare to go to India. Based on his common sense and life experience of being an ordinary person in his previous life, he had some basic understanding of what he had eaten. Although the grain yields are very high in three seasons, the taste is generally not very good. It can only be said that it can be eaten, but it is definitely not delicious. On the contrary, although the yields are average in the climate one season, the crops grown are all very good. In terms of climate, India belongs to the former and the Soviet Union belongs to the latter.

"General, the Turkish National Assembly and the Senate made a resolution to drive Greeks away, with a total of 18,000 people!" As soon as Selov returned to Moscow, Lukani immediately told the news.
Chapter completed!
