Chapter 69: One Hundred Thousand Officers
"The US National Expo is about to open. The person next to the General Secretary should be the director of the Second General Administration. The commander of the security work should be the director of the Fifth General Administration, but you also know that the director of the Second General Administration is about to retire. But if Director Aliksai is allowed to replace the director of the Second General Administration, it is unreasonable! So both of them are not suitable. You are the youngest director of the General Administration of the KGB and the good image. The most important thing is that you are well-known in the United States. This time you will stand by the General Secretary!" Xie Lieping considered the relationship between the General Administration of the Domestic Spy and the Secret Police Bureau, he finally replaced the two direct commanders and asked Selov to take over. Looking at Selov, who was pretending to be a zombie, said, "What are you afraid of? You have not attended such a job!"
"Am I scared?" Shelov denied, "It should be those people who are afraid of me. If I know, I will leave this matter to me. I will go back to the headquarters and sort out the work of the General Administration of Military Management first! Otherwise, I will be afraid that those people will forget that they have a director!" By the way, she took away the two sets of tableware and Shelov left the chairman's office.
"This little guy treats my place as a cafeteria!" Xie Lieping sniffed and shook his head with a wry smile. He walked to the window and pushed the closed window open. Directly opposite was the huge Derzhinsky statue in the square.
The KGB General Administration has an equal administrative level, but there are still high and low powers in terms of power. The two superior authorities are the State Administration of Foreign Intelligence and the State Administration of Domestic Espionage. Which is more important to the First Administration or the Second Administration depends entirely on whose work has made progress this year, rather than simply the first and second divisions.
Like the First General Administration, the Second General Administration has twelve departments and bureaus under its jurisdiction. Although there are not as many as the 16 departments of the First General Administration, it is no different from the First General Administration in terms of functions. The first six departments are divided according to the region. This region is not a domestic administrative map of the Soviet Union, but is divided from the world map like the First General Administration. The First Division corresponds to the United States and Latin America. The Second Division is responsible for the Commonwealth countries, the Third Division is responsible for Germanic countries including the Nordic countries, the Fourth Division is responsible for Western European countries, the Fifth Division is responsible for developed countries outside Europe, and the Sixth Division is responsible for countries in the Third World. On average, each department is divided into five to eight departments, with fifty staff members and special investigators and back-operating teams as support.
Selov said that the department with the same functions as the anti-corruption department under the Council of Ministers is the 12th Division of the Second General Administration. This is the Anti-corruption Bureau within the KGB. It has the same functions as the department of the Council of Ministers and can also investigate any corrupt person in the Soviet Union.
The number of people in the Second General Administration ranks second within the KGB, only smaller than the number of people in the Border Defense Bureau with 300,000 border troops under the jurisdiction of the Second General Administration. The scope of work of the Second General Administration is in the Soviet Union. It can be said that except for the First General Administration facing foreign countries, all the general authorities from Selov's Third General Administration overlap with the scope of work of the Second General Administration, and theoretically they must cooperate with the work of the Second General Administration.
It can be said that although Serepin did not allow the return of Serepin to be promoted, if Serepin took over the Second General Administration, the authority of the KGB would have reached a level, and he could be on par with the ordinary KGB vice chairman. After all, there are fifteen vice chairmans of the KGB, and except for the two first vice chairmans, ordinary people would not make any mistakes in the work of the General Administration. So far, Serov has not recognized all the fifteen vice chairmans...
Now we still have to do a good job in the Third General Administration. Return to Serov, who is at the headquarters of the Third General Administration, ask Lukani to find all directors to have a meeting and say to Iseymotney, "You go to the Technical Administration to get Tetris and the electronic camera!"
The two things that Selov wanted have been studied for two years. Tetris had produced eight samples, and finally became a computer case that was so big that it became something similar to later generations. The electronic camera also successfully passed the inspection.
"Long time no see, comrades!" Selov got his position, with twelve directors under him, corresponding to the 16 military regions of the Soviet Union, four major clusters stationed in Eastern Europe, the Ministry of National Defense and General Staff, the Air Force and National Defense Air Force, the Navy and National Defense and Military Industry Enterprises, as well as major design bureau units.
Shelov waved his hand and said, "Let's talk about work first. Everyone has read the documents issued above. The establishment of the Strategic Rocket Force is imperative. All resistance must be cleared! The order issued at the same time is also a disarmament of 300,000. Two tasks are carried out at the same time. We must ensure the successful development of the work! Major General Pavlov will tell you!"
"The opinion of the Ministry of National Defense and General Staff is to select several combat troops with glorious history from the existing Red Army, retain the number and place it into the Strategic Rocket Force, and sort out the newly established Strategic Rocket Force, select officers from the entire army to enrich the Strategic Rocket Force, and eliminate officers with poor quality!" Major General Pavlov stood up and talked happily, "My personal opinion is supported. The General Staff of the Red Army will carry out the first round of elimination, and we will carry out the second round of sorting to ensure that this youngest military has the most professional officer group!"
"We must strictly review it. The Strategic Rocket Force is different from ordinary branches of the army. The officers in it must be strictly reviewed! We cannot make mistakes in this area. We must prevent people who are unreliable in the army from entering the Strategic Rocket Force!" Selov nodded, "There is also a 300,000 disarmament quota. Let's talk about our views..."
The disarmament order was issued at the end of last year, giving the Ministry of Defense a year to carry out disarmament. The State Administration of Military Administration must assist or monitor this process! Ensure that the Red Army, which had been disarmament for two million, will not rebound. Khrushchev, still focused on the Red Army and prepared to find funds from the Red Army's military expenditure.
I opened the information of the troops sent by the Ministry of National Defense, read it for a while without hesitation and drew a big fork on it, and said with a cold face, "Disarmament must start from the military regional troops in the mainland. The military regional troops in Central Asia, North Caucasus, Transcaucasus and Turkestan cannot be dismissed, so let the Ministry of National Defense redefine the troops!"
Selov understood that the formulaters of the Ministry of Defense had good intentions and hoped that the Slavs would be larger in the military. But Selov would never agree to abolition of soldiers from Central Asia and Caucasian nations. On the contrary, the Slavs must be laid off. Slavs should be better off quickly and returned home to get married and have children. The 300,000 troops can give birth to a large population in two years. Even if they are better than nothing, it is better than doing nothing.
"There is also our 100,000 officer plan. I believe everyone has seen the plan I have formulated in Berlin. It will be implemented from now on to ensure that all the officers of the Red Army, above the Second Lieutenant and below the Major General, have established a benign interaction with our General Administration of Military Administration! The plan has been sent to the General Secretary by Chairman Xie Lieping, and the General Secretary appreciates it very much!" Serov said with an unquestionable attitude, "Make sure the army obeys the command of the central government! Let the officers understand who they are loyal to, which is complementary to the idea of curbing Bonaparte!"
Chapter completed!
