Chapter 657 The European Order
"General Political Commissar Selov, Moscow Telegram." While the two were waiting for the arrival of aid, a major-level Gruu called Selov in and said that a telegram from Moscow was to be handed over to him.
"Cipheral Telegram?" Shelov finally translated it after spending a long time, and his face changed instantly. Yegorechev, the first secretary of the Moscow Municipal Party Committee, was dismissed. Grishen, the new first secretary of the Moscow Municipal Party Committee, was calmed down and asked in a plain tone, "What is Comrade Xie Lieping, the Chairman of the Supreme Soviet Union?"
This is impossible. Sherepin is in Moscow. How could Yegorechev be dismissed? Could it be that Xie Lieping did not stop it? Or did he think that the position of the first secretary of the Moscow Municipal Party Committee is not important. Within two years, the top leaders of Leningrad and Moscow and the Soviet Union were successively lost, and the loss was too great.
"The General Political Commissar and the Supreme Soviet Chairman were hospitalized for appendicitis and did not attend the meeting." The major said cautiously.
"Hmm..., well! It's okay." Xie Luov waved his hand and asked the other party to go out, covering his head with his hands. He looked like he was being beaten up and was squatting on the ground and hugging his head and crying. His luck was so bad. He was not here, and Xie Lieping was hospitalized for appendicitis. The Central Presidium Committee agreed that he could pass the resolution at will and find an excuse to dismiss Yegorechev. A central committee member of the other party could not resist at all.
"Do you think I can't do anything? Grishen has a few ** I know that he can't help me." After a long time, Shelov got rid of the state of crying and comforted himself, but even though he said that, he still felt that Xie Lieping's luck was too bad, or that Xie Lieping's group luck was too bad.
"This old fox is too cunning and often takes me abroad. He just wants to transfer me. If I am in Moscow, even if Sherepin is hospitalized, it will not be so easy to pass the meeting. I will delay it for a few days when Sherepin comes back, and this proposal will be left in vain." Sherov felt more and more that his thoughts make sense. Brezhnev was waiting there. As long as he was not careful, he would find a loophole.
Now that things have come to this point, he has no good idea, but the back-up has been left behind. Although the current first secretary of Leningrad Romanov and the first secretary of the Moscow Municipal Party Committee, Grishin, replaced two of Serepin's friends, both of them know and will not hinder him.
"Shelov, is it okay? I just got the news. I hope you don't have any emotions when it comes to Comrade Yegorechev's transfer. From the perspective of a friend, I hope you can accept it." Andropov came over and obviously he had already learned about Moscow, so he came to comfort Shelov?
No, Selov could clearly sense that the other party was not simply comforting himself, but another meaning, to win over! So he replied, "I have accepted it, after all, it was the central government's decision."
Recently, Selov always feels that his perceptions are inaccurate. It is not until 1973 that Andropov can no longer control his political ambitions? The other party's purpose is obviously similar to that of himself, and he consciously establishes good relations with leaders of major important departments, especially Ustinov and Gromiko.
But so what if I support you? Your body is sick and you can't sit for a few years. If you remember correctly, Andropov died two years after Brezhnev's death and could not do anything at all.
No, maybe this is better. After Andropov's death, he seems to have no enemies. None of the remaining members of the Dnepro gang are in good health, and the youngest Serbisky didn't live long. He is not his opponent at all. The biggest problem in front of Serbiv is not to be replaced after Brezhnev's death. Thinking about this, I should support Andropov, because the other party won't live long anyway...
"I think, as a friend, I want to go back and comfort Yegorechev." Selov also showed his disappointment at the right time, hoping that he could return home as soon as possible. Andropov thought for a moment and nodded, expressing his willingness to help communicate with Moscow. In this way, Selov returned to Moscow a week after Brezhnev returned to China, and Andropov continued to complete the remaining preparations in Chile. He would definitely not come back if the Red Navy was not in Chile. During the Hungarian incident, he saw with his own eyes what the collapse of a country's order was like. He was as careful as Selov.
"What a pity, this is the result." Selov's tone was very low, and he didn't know how to comfort his friends.
On the contrary, Yegorechev was relatively calm, as if he had not been affected by the dismissal, and said to himself, "You are right. Brezhnev is hostile to us, the cadres of the Communist Youth League. He has no choice but to deal with you and Shurik for the time being. But you must be careful, the organizational power is in his hands, and Shurik must be careful. The age of you two is a big threat to him."
Yegorechev was still very happy to see him from Latin America. He greeted his newly married daughter and son-in-law home. He smiled and prepared the meal to greet his friends. He would go abroad as an ambassador in a few days. The location was Denmark, a very wealthy country.
If you think from the perspective of others, Selov believes that he will never be able to do Yegorechev's open-mindedness. Moscow's political status is very important. As the first secretary of the municipal party committee, he can almost be said to have higher political status than Selecchasne. He is the Central Committee member with the most popular call for entry into the Central Presidium. He has the second largest political prestige and collective force in the Selepin group, and can even be said to be Brezhnev's political opponent, but now everything is over.
"I am a person who has participated in the Patriotic War. Those who have been on the battlefield may be more open-minded, but you are different. There is also Shurik. Neither of you has joined the army. If you encounter such a situation, it will take a long time to recover." After dinner, Yegorechev sent Serov out and said, "Be careful, as long as you and Shurik did not lose."
"You are really open-minded!" Selov shook his head and looked at the other party standing at the door. He could guess what Yegorechev meant, and suspected that he was under surveillance by agents. As soon as Xie Lieping was hospitalized, the Central Presidium immediately passed a resolution. It was impossible without conclusive information. Yegorechev suspected that he was being followed.
"It's nothing. Brezhnev is a gentle man. He even gave my daughter a house." Yegorechev smiled, as if he was a little excited. "He used this house to change the position of the first secretary of our city party committee."
Before Selov came back, Brezhnev personally called Yegorechev who was dismissed: "I'm sorry, this is a result... Do you have any problems, family problems or other problems?" Yegorechev mentioned that his daughter had just gotten married not long ago and had no house. A few days later, the newlywed family got a house.
"A house in Moscow can replace the position of the First Secretary of the Moscow Municipal Party Committee. Is the Soviet Union too clean or has these cadres never seen the market?" Selov, who left Yegorechev's house, strolled on the street. He was surprised from the last time he investigated Azerbaijan for 200,000 rubles of corruption. Could it be that the corrupt officials reported in later generations were too brave, so he felt that Soviet cadres were honest?
"Do you think it's a failure?" Aliksai touched his gray hair, "Do you still think our minister made a mistake now? You are the largest security cadre in the country, the General Political Commissar, the National Defense Committee, and the Central Presidium. You don't look very good, not as good as we were back then."
"Go and let me lie for a while." Selov, who was lying on the sofa, looked impatient. This old friend has become increasingly annoying recently. He came to his home from the headquarters of Gruu, which has not been out for a month, to mock him.
"Now, I know it's difficult to deal with. When you face most people, things are not easy to deal with. The same thing is the same. As the number two person, it is too strong, and the number one person can easily find someone who wants to replace you to deal with you. Xie Lieping is in this position." Aliksai Shiran lit a cigarette and said a few words, "This is the file of the new commander of the Kremlin garrison. I hope you can use it at that time. Why have you been a security cadre for so many years? I won't remind you to burn it after reading it..."
"I'm not ready to do anything. This is not good for the country." Serov curled his lips, "Can the Moscow inner guards deal with the surrounding troops? Not necessarily. Since they can't deal with it, there's no need to fight hard."
"I don't want to do anything, but it's a good thing to win over. You are suddenly killed like our minister." Aliksai shrugged, "You KGB have a group that specializes in monitoring Sherepin and Shemichasne. I have found this group. I will slowly turn them into paralyzed. I don't worry about you. As for others, I think the danger is."
"Isn't this what you are doing? With you, the old spy leader, what am I afraid of?"
"Are you scolding me? I can refuse a lot of trouble for you." Aliksai shook his head slightly, "But this Caspian tiger that cannot be fed, probably won't thank me. Sometimes I really think I've misread."
After Yegorechev was removed from his post, everything returned to peace, as if nothing had happened. Brezhnev's main work was to determine the legal status of the Soviet Union in Eastern Europe and solve his worries. At the meeting held in Helsinki, the United States and the Soviet Union reached a compromise and agreed that the OSCE and the European Conference on Balanced Disarmament were held at the same time.
The Soviet Union tried to use the desire of European countries to hope for peace and security, and through the meeting, confirmed the status of European countries' borders that were beneficial to the Soviet Union after the war, consolidated its position in Eastern Europe, and differentiated the relations between Western European countries and the United States. The United States' intention was to limit the further expansion of the Soviet Union and infiltrate Eastern Europe at the same time. European countries tried to use the conflicts between the United States and the Soviet Union to improve their situation to varying degrees.
