Chapter 764 Ruthless Sherbitsky
The Soviet standard fourth-generation fighter jet was put into service before the US standard third-generation fighter jet. The reason for overtaking on the curve was completely because it saved a lot of time on the fuselage. The wind tunnel test was completed quickly, which should have been a time-consuming task. Selov knew that once this stage was passed, the two classic Soviet fighters could at least protect the Soviet sky until thirty years later, especially the Su-27 heavy fighter jets had amazing potential and were definitely able to maintain the balance of the two major groups for thirty years. Even because of the early service time, it could in turn oppress NATO in a short time.
Of course, this is just from the perspective of the Soviet Union. NATO countries will not feel this oppression in a short period of time. The Soviet Union will not take the initiative to expose its trump card. Only by allowing NATO countries to slowly discover clues can they play the greatest deterrent effect. They themselves find that it is more authentic than the Soviet Union's active exposure.
"If the No. 70 project can be completed smoothly, I believe we will not be troubled by the US Air Force in a short period of time." Air Force coach Kutahov and Ustinov and Selov have tested the projects of major design bureaus in the past few days. At present, most projects are progressing smoothly, and the only shortcoming is the strategic bomber.
"This is also our approach. We can only give them time and ensure the investment of funds." Serov shrugged and said without comment. Project 70 is the Soviet White Swan, the Tiu 160 strategic bomber. His understanding of this strategic bomber is limited to paper and he has no ability to help design with sketches.
"In theory, we certainly hope to be as soon as possible, but in the actual operation, of course, it takes time to design. The supporting factories produce parts, which is not a hen laying eggs. In terms of time, we can still wait." Ustinov turned around, his eyes under the lens were as dull as ever. He was a military engineer and would not force the design bureau to speed up the progress with administrative orders. If the threat was imminent, he would do this. There are no such conditions yet...
In the Kremlin, Brezhnev announced the arrangements for the adjustment of work. Schellest, the first secretary of the Ukrainian Party Committee, was transferred to the first vice chairman of the Soviet Council of Ministers, assisting Comrade Kosigin to preside over the government work. Schelletbici, the chairman of the Ukrainian Ministers, served as the first secretary of the Ukrainian Party Committee.
"Comrade Sherest's handling of some ethnic issues is somewhat unsatisfactory. However, for his old comrades with comprehensive abilities, the Party and the country still give full trust. I personally think it is very appropriate to give full play to Comrade Sherest's role in the scope of economic construction." Brezhnev made a very gentle proposal, "Of course, Comrade Sheretsky's ability and character are also within my consideration."
All members of the Central Presidium knew about a certain ethnic sentiment that had always existed in Ukraine. Of course, they had a lot of complaints about this. Even Sherepin, who supported Sherest after Podgorne, was not very satisfied with Sherest's policy on the Ukrainian nation.
Brezhnev's suggestion is just the starting point of this aspect. I believe it will be easy to get the support of most members of the Central Presidium. This is a completely reasonable suggestion. Who dares to say that maintaining domestic stability is wrong? Even if Serepin's biggest supporter did not go out to inspect with Ustinov, I believe he would not object, because the other party could not find an excuse to object.
"Will Comrade Sherest presided over Ukraine's work for many years and rashly transferred out of Ukraine, will it cause Ukraine to shock?" Supreme Soviet Chairman Xie Leping raised objections, "We cannot ignore this issue."
"This is Comrade Sherbizky's problem." Brezhnev said calmly, "I believe he can handle it well."
Since his great victory in Turkey, Brezhnev, as General Secretary, has become increasingly aura. After serving as the chairman of the National Defense Committee, he has completely gained support from the military. If the former collective leadership is a fact, the current collective leadership has become less and less shackles on him. Brezhnev can get more than half of the support with just a little thought, just like this proposal.
Since he fell ill, although no one knew that he had had two consecutive illnesses, Brezhnev himself could feel that his body had indeed been greatly affected and his energy was not enough. After feeling this situation, some work was accelerated, such as establishing the dominant position of himself and his supporters.
"Ilyic, it should have been like this for a long time, establishing our advantageous low." Kirilenko obviously had no doubt about Brezhnev's choice this time, "Put Sherest to Kosigin first and gather them together, the shock caused by this is controllable."
"The National Congress in February next year is the heavyweight conference that decides whether we can confirm our dominance. Be prepared first!" Brezhnev said tiredly, "Whose route is more in line with the interests of the Soviet Union, this still requires support."
"What's wrong with you? You seem a little tired lately? Do you have to take a while off and take a break?" Kirilenko cared about from the perspective of his comrades-in-arms, "But this time Shelbitsky controls Ukraine, I believe it is good news for us."
"I believe him too, otherwise I wouldn't give Ukraine to him." Brezhnev answered the latter question of Kirilenko, and regarded the previous question as if he had not seen it. Since his second stroke was a secret, it would be considered a secret. His body could not be recovered from a holiday, and he was very satisfied with being able to stabilize the current situation. Besides, it would be empty talk.
Dneprpetrovsk has been closed to the outside world as a secret military city, and foreign tourists are forbidden to enter the city. Therefore, Dneprpetrovsk, which has military and industrial reserves, is different from other cities in the Soviet Union in all aspects. Serbisky was once the secretary of the Dneprpetrovsk's provincial party committee. Although he was suppressed by Serrest for a short time, the two now have already achieved results in the fight between the two in Ukraine.
Later, Kirilenko, the Secretary of the Secretariat, who had always loved this successor, told Serbizky through the telephone line, "The formal decision still requires certain procedures, but basically, the General Secretary and I hope that Ukraine can develop more under your leadership."
"I can only answer the trust of the General Secretary and the Central Secretary." Shelbitsky thanked solemnly. After putting down the phone, she showed a little excitement on her face. She said it was because if you didn't look carefully, you wouldn't be able to tell whether he was as cold as ice all year round.
In the final analysis, Moscow's discussion on Ukraine is ethnic policy. Sherest is a first secretary with a national consciousness, and he is the chairman of the Council of Ministers with a great Russian consciousness. Although both of them are Ukrainians, they are not a human being. What Moscow needs is a first secretary who leads Ukraine to become a part of the Soviet Union, not the first secretary who always wants to start a new mountain.
This is the difference between him and Sherest. He himself understood this and turned around and took out a long list from the drawer. It was all Sherest's supporters, involving all fields and classes. This was Sherest's first job, and he had a thorough understanding of the soil of Ukrainian nationalists. As long as Sherest left, this kind of cleaning was imperative.
There is one nominal Ukraine, but in fact there are two. The Soviet Union was established, and the Ukrainian Soviet Republic joined the Soviet Union as the first group of franchise republics. In this way, the Ukrainian nation was divided into two regions: the eastern and central Ukraine ruled by the Soviet Union and the Western Ukraine ruled by Poland. The Western Ukraine ruled by Poland was still a backward agricultural area. The Soviet Union then seized Western Ukraine and announced the incorporation of Western Ukraine into the Ukrainian Soviet Republic. The Soviet Union then carried out socialist transformation in Western Ukraine, and a large number of arrests were aggravated the tension in the local society.
Ukrainian First Secretary Sherest has always adopted a pleading method to treat Western Ukraine. Now this model has never worked, and finally Moscow feels that he should try another first secretary. Sherbitsky understands that this is his opportunity.
Sherbizky also decided to change his approach, which is to carry out a thorough cleanup of Ukraine. "Comrade Shirekov? I am Sherbizky. If you have time, we can talk."
He knew that Shirekov was a subordinate promoted by Selov. He originally helped Valia carry out educational reform in Ukraine. After setting up the education system, Valia returned to Moscow. And Shirekov continued to work in Kiev. Now he is ready to test the tone of the KGB Chairman through this person.
"That's it, Chairman, I didn't find anything to help Serbizky." Sylekov reported the meeting with Serbizky in detail.
"I know." Sylekov's words were consistent with the reports of the spy he arranged with the two of them. This proved that Sylekov was still his own person. Sylekov understood very well that as long as Sylekud left Ukraine, he would clean up in Ukraine and send Ukraine's homeland to prison. This ruthless man has been very cruel in history. In a sense, what Sylekudud did was a little softer than Beria and no death. The scope was smaller, limited to Ukraine, and the rest was basically no different from the original Ministry of Internal Affairs. (To be continued.)
