For the Soviets, a warm climate place had great appeal, but it was definitely not the pure heat of Khartoum. It just so happened that the coastline of Sudan was relatively short and there was no sea breeze. The water volume of the Nile River obviously could not drop in the temperature of the Sudan capital. A good place was with mountains and water, and Khartoum was not listed here.

However, for the sake of the national interests of the Soviet Union, the consultants of the Military Advisory Group in Sudan were ordered to come here from Alexandria to reorganize the Sudanese army and realize the Soviet strategic plan.

The plan has existed for a long time. Following the route of the British Empire that year, we headed south from Egypt, the northernmost part of Africa until South Africa brought the entire eastern Africa into control. Of course, this is the most ideal situation. In fact, the possibility of trying to chew South Africa from Africa is infinitely close to zero. But South Africa and Zimbabwe of this era are a special country in Africa after all.

Both countries are white, but black-majority African countries are actually nominally colonies of independent countries. In this case, it is of course difficult to overthrow the white regime of the two countries. After all, the Soviet Union cannot fight from thousands of miles away, but if we take a step back, it is not impossible to put these two countries into chaos with a lower goal. During the more than ten years of white people's rule, black groups in Zimbabwe have been engaged in fierce guerrilla warfare to try to overthrow the people in power. Under the cross-border of international sanctions and the black armed movement, the white government was finally forced to sign an agreement with many black forces, including the Zimbabwe African National Union and the Zimbabwe African National Union. South Africa persisted for a little longer, but it would not last long.

Of course, the premise of all this is that we must first deal with Congo, which is blocking the Soviet Union's road to the south. This country is very hindering and has become an obstacle to the Soviet Union's African strategy. Moreover, Congo is not weak, with a population twice that of Sudan. Although Mobutu is a dictator, he is also a capable dictator. After the Soviet-backed Lumomba died, Mobutu banned Lumomba's supporters from activities and consolidated his position.

In history, Mobutu remained active until the collapse of the Soviet Union. Later, because the Soviet Union no longer existed, the United States began to repair its image and began to plan to allow these allies during the Cold War to be overthrown. During the Cold War, the United States supported various warlords and dictators only a stopgap measure, which was an action that could not be done under the pressure of the Soviet Union.

Just like Selov likes the democratic system the most, because he knows that this system with many loopholes is very easy for strong countries to intervene, and of course the American political elites also know it. The problem is not only the United States itself is a superpower in this era. Once a democratic system is implemented in backward countries, first, the power of the United States supports may not be able to pass the election, second, the Soviet Union can also infiltrate through other methods.

In order to withstand the red wave around the world, the United States can only choose political strongmen and warlords second best. They also know that political strongmen and warlords are actually much stronger than their democratic elites. If backward countries are all the verbal tricks they trained to rule, they will probably be pushed down one by one by one by the Soviet Union. The news reported in American newspapers every day is that the Soviet Union moves from one victory to another.

The power of Mobutu and the Congo was not worth mentioning to the Soviet Union, but it was a good country in Africa. The Soviet Union could not come here specifically to deal with it, and could only fight through the situation of proxy war. This was the purpose of the Soviet military advisory group coming to Sudan.

The head of the military advisory group was a general of the Red Army, but this military advisory group was different. In this group sent by the Soviet Union to Sudan, a general adviser appeared. This person was the retired first vice-president of the KGB. Although he was not the leader of the military advisory group, he was higher than the rank of the lieutenant general commander. Selov specifically asked him to come to Sudan to play his remaining energy, indicating that the Soviet Union attached importance to the Sudan country.

At this time, in the Sudan's new government building, Itvasov met a large number of Sudan's powerful factions, including the Sudanese leader Lieutenant General Seram, Chairman of the Sudan Revolutionary People's Party, Lieutenant General Rahim, Chairman of the Sudan Council of Ministers, and other large groups of Sudanese real power factions.

"Comrade Seram, Comrade Rahim, I brought greetings from the General Political Commissar. The achievements and changes in Sudan over the past year have been heard in Moscow. The process of reconciliation between the north and the south has also progressed well. Although the conflict is still there, it is much better than the situation during the period of General Abud. Sudan's agriculture and animal husbandry have developed very well. This is a gratifying change." After meeting with these students from Lumumba School, Yitwasov exchanged greetings and went straight to the topic. "The role played by a modern army cannot be overstated. I wonder what standard do you think the military power of Sudan is?"

"Our army can also play a role in Africa, and it cannot be said to be powerful." Seram still has a clear understanding of the Sudanese army. He has seen the military force of the Soviet Union. He heard that the most powerful force of the Soviet Union was not in the local area, but was stationed in the Western cluster in Germany. But the Soviet soldiers he saw were already shocking enough.

"To be honest, your military power is equivalent to the organizational strength of European military powers during World War I, and it is even worse than that of them. During World War I fifty years ago, European countries could use millions of troops to fight, but you Sudan still cannot do it, so your current achievements are far from being complacent." Yitvasov adopted a narrative technique of suppressing first and then promoting, first pointing out the shortcomings of Sudan, and then changing the subject, "As a sample country the Soviet Union wanted to build on the African continent, the situation in Sudan is far from optimistic. General Political Commissar Serov once said that the Soviet Union hoped that Sudan would play a role in the African window, so Sudan would be best to meet the standards of the Soviet Warsaw Pact allies."

"Thank you for your attention to our country!" Rahim, chairman of the Council of Sudan's Ministers, said with a little excitement. Although Eastern European countries are a little worse than Western European powers, in his opinion, they are already much higher than Sudan. You have to eat rice at a bite. As long as Sudan can meet the standards of Eastern European countries, it is already thankful.

"Of course that's the matter between you and the Soviet Union. My mission this time is very simple. To improve Sudan's control, and at the same time help Sudan build a modern army, a model army in Africa. At least it must meet the standards of Syria, and at the same time adjust the conflicts between the north and the south of Sudan." This is Ilvanov's purpose. He established a military in the Soviet model and served as the Soviet Union's reliance on Africa. With the existence of this army, I believe that the Soviet Union's plan in Africa will be much easier to handle in the future.

According to Itvasov's plan, the new Sudan People's Army should have about 400,000, 350,000 people, and 50,000 border defense forces, which is the largest number that Sudan can bear at this stage. Itvasov particularly emphasized that most of the border defense forces should be composed of black soldiers, indicating the new government's determination to reconcile north and south.

However, this proposal made Seram a little doubtful and asked, "The blacks in the south themselves tend to be separated. If some soldiers were composed of blacks, would they give them the power to separate?"

"I heard that there is a minority in the northern part of the Congo that uses the Sudanese system?" Yitvasov smiled and turned to another topic. "This kind of cross-border nation is actually a problem and a problem, and it is also a correct way to say that it is the root cause of the problem. With the domestic environment of Congo, it will definitely not be very good for this nation with a population of hundreds of thousands."

This nation is the same as the blacks in southern Sudan, but the Congo is slightly less than one million people. Since the Sudanese obvious pro-Soviet transformation, this nation has aroused Mobutu's doubts. In the past, there were actually some, but now this doubt has become more serious.

The KGB and the CIA are experts who both subvert the country and fan the flames. In fact, there are only a few ways to sow conflicts. To see if there are ethnic issues in this country. If there are no one, look at it and there are no religious issues. If there are no one, look at it and whether there are regional issues. If there are all congratulations, when an organization like the KGB thinks that this country is valuable but still hostile, you will discover these issues and exploit them as soon as possible.

The United States has repeatedly increased its troops in Southeast Asia, fighting life and death in Vietnam, and being fully alert in Malaysia. The forces in other directions have been empty, so in Africa at least in recent years, the KGB has only faced the residual forces of some colonial empires.

"I understand, transfer the hatred of the black people in the interior towards us Arabs to the Congo and release this hatred." Seram, Rahim and others pondered for a while, and understood the meaning of it.

In July 1966, after the Soviet military advisory group arrived in Khartoum, a national movement to rectify the army began. Seram and Rahim issued documents on the establishment of the Sudan People's Army in the name of the Sudan Revolutionary People's Party and the Sudan Ministers' Meeting, respectively, to allow various departments to accept the adaptation of the Soviet military advisory group. This marked that Sudan had one step closer to the socialist camp after joining the Economic and Communications Conference.
