Chapter 613 imminent
“Because Iraq does not have a border with the Soviet Union, in fact, we have not been able to cut off the entire Eurasian continent, but the only remaining area is Kurdistan in the traditional sense, so if the progress of Iraq goes well, the next step is to find an opportunity to take Turkey Split and cut off the entire Eurasian continent smoothly.” Shelov said unabashedly, “At that time, we can say that the center of the entire human race, the Eurasian continent, is under our control, and let the sea power theory go.”
“Of course this is our most ideal idea!” Brezhnev opened his arms very exaggeratedly, as if he had seen this vision, but stopped immediately, as if thinking of another question, “But I always feel that China is an unstable factor, Yura, do you have a record in your mind?”
Of course, Sheloff said without hesitation, “India, Myanmar, Vietnam, and Indonesia form the southern line, and the Red Flag frontier military regions in the Far East form the northern line. Now there is only the last link, which is Pakistan in the west. When the time is right, wait for us. According to the changes in the situation, find a way to complete the structure of the Western Front. I believe that there will be no problems in the future. However, First Secretary, didn’t you say that we and China are just different in concept, which is a quarrel between brothers. ”
The concept of is rather vague. In theory, this strategy of the Soviet Union responding in the north and confronting other countries in the south is stronger than the C-shaped encirclement of the United States, and even more aggressive than the Soviet Union’s north-south attack strategy during the Cold War. But theory is just theory. It is not difficult for the Soviet Union to want these countries to defend together, but it is impossible for them to follow the Soviet Union’s baton to attack, and they are not part of the Soviet Union. This so-called filing looks like a wonderful prospect, but in fact it just comforts Brezhnev.
“That said, but it’s always right to be on guard. You also know that the population of the Far East is so small, while the population of our country to the south is so large.” Every time Brezhnev looked at the map, he could feel the huge pressure.
This kind of pressure is understandable. The Chinese people look at the map and see the Soviet Union above, even Russia. They also feel the same way. Why is this country so big? Simply breathless.
But he lived there in his previous life, don’t you know the real situation? How many Northeasterners will go to the colder Siberia? Those who have a bit of knowledge will run south. The population of their hometown is lost every year, and it is definitely not lost to Siberia. Anyway, he was not afraid of China at all. It was 1968, and there was already a generational difference in the weapons and equipment of the Soviet Union and China. Not at all when both countries were MiG 19 more than ten years ago.
The person who can make the Soviet Union feel the pressure, no matter how powerful, is still unable to withstand the passage of time in the end.
I talked with Brezhnev for a while. There are two main transportation routes for Iraq. One is to transport to Basra, the largest port in Iraq, by sea, and the second is to transport to the area bordering Iraq through Syria. At the beginning, the Soviet Union must have relied on the first route, but in fact the second route is the most secure, reducing a lot of interference factors.
The reason why had to rely on the first item at the beginning was because Basra was the area around which the Iraqi Communist Party focused its operations. In fact, for a long time Basra was the core area of the Iraqi Communist Party at all, and it is now, but it is not on the surface. Shipping can help the Iraqi Communist Party to calm down the situation in this largest port as soon as possible, and at the same time control Basra, it will cut off the possibility of other countries interfering. Of course, Shelov hopes to use the shortest time to defeat all the resistance forces.
“We have already communicated with the Ministry of Defense. As for the armament, Comrade Ustinov, Secretary of the Central Committee, is in charge of the work, and Comrade Andropov, Secretary of the Central Committee, is in charge of contacting local people. In this situation, the United States is about to change its term. Next, the relevant actions can already be started. Comrade Zinev, you are in charge of the work in Africa. The long-term goal is to go all the way to South Africa! In the name of anti-colonialism, you will leverage the mineral bases of the Western world. Remember, don’t touch the French. Colonies, first take down British Africa, those countries in British Africa have a certain cultural heritage.” After saying some encouraging words, Serov turned his attention to Zinev, “Remember, this is a long-term strategic actions that may take years, or even decades…”
Just as Ukraine actually has two parts, Africa also has two parts or more. Take black Africa as an example. The birthplace of major civilizations is in East Africa. Ethiopia has defeated the invading Roman Empire several times in its history. , the Persian Empire, in earlier times, they were talking and laughing with ancient Egypt, Somalia and Sudan were not completely primitive societies, they had their own countries before, and they came into contact with the Arabs, and even earlier Rome, Persia and Ancient Egypt. As for western Africa, especially southwestern Africa, basically all are backward primitive people.
“I know, I will build a group of socialist countries in Africa.” Zinev shouted confidently.
“Just a pro-Soviet country!” If a socialist country is really established, it is uncertain whether to develop socialism or embarrass socialism, and then set his sights on Zweigon and said, “As for Southeast Asia, Americans have always been worried about the domino theory. If it becomes a reality, then Comrade Zweigon, the work of supporting the communist parties of various countries in Southeast Asia will be handed over to you, in fact, you have helped, and if a country knows our purpose, it will definitely help you.”
Speaking of this, everyone in the conference room laughed tacitly. They all knew who Serov was talking about. This country has said that the Soviet Union is not revolutionary enough. It has been said for nearly ten years.
“Dedicate one billion of our intelligence fund to this matter, and this money will be used by me, Comrade Zinev and Tsvigon to support the revolution, and the first deputy for the specific work of the major general bureaus. Chairman General Chebrikov and General Bobkov are in charge, then from January 1st, which is the first day of 1969, we will announce to the world that from now on, we will It’s time to switch from defense to offense.” Shelov slammed a fist on the world map and shouted, “All the Soviets, after waiting for so many years, finally waited for this day, remember that sharing the world is a wrong theory, we must be the only one, Bury capitalism, that’s the right idea.”
Because the time for the planned action is the Russian New Year, when the entire Soviet Union is on holiday, some preparations must be carried out now, such as Lubyanka’s on-duty work, Serov and Chebrikov, Bobkov, Zinev and Tsvigon, each of five people are on duty in Lubyanka for three days. Of course, Serov, who is the chairman of the KGB, is definitely not in Lubyanka on New Year’s Day, but he also fully took care of the mood of the others. During the New Year’s holiday, family members can come to Lubyanka to accompany the staff, which is only valid for the annual New Year’s holiday.
“We ordered 200,000 automatic rifles and 60 million rounds of ammunition from China, and they will be shipped within a month. After deducting the time at sea, it should arrive in Basra at the time of the Iraqi communist uprising, and the error will not exceed one day. At the same time, the freighter with the Indonesian flag set off from the GDR, with light armored vehicles and bombs on it.” Serov and Ustinov discussed the situation of mobilizing materials everywhere.
Ustinov is no stranger to this kind of work. In the Cuban missile crisis a few years ago, the Soviet Union launched deception plans from all over the world, and it was finally completed from his hands. Serov just provided a concept, in other words, he just moved his mouth. .
“When will the Iraqi trainees in Azerbaijan be sent back?” Ustinov thought for a while and felt that there was no problem, and then asked this question. It’s time to act fast, and it’s not necessary to keep those Iraqis in Azerbaijan. Iraqis have been trained in Azerbaijan for so many years, and many even marry local girls.
When Azerbaijan had the most training camps, 5,000 Iraqis were being trained. Every year, new recruits were sent in, and many were sent back. These people have now spread all over Iraq. They have learned the full set of KGB spy training here. Also received military training, and now should also be the time to bear fruit.
“Those people who ship from the Black Sea, cross the Dardanelles, land in Syria, attack on the Iraqi-Syrian border, and with them we have our tanks in Syria. These are officers trained, everyone Anyone can be a squad leader or even a higher officer.” Shelov said that he sighed a little here. In the early years, this training camp occupied a lot of expenses of the Third General Directorate. At that time, the KGB’s funds were far from being as abundant as it is now.
“We’d better let these returning soldiers join hands with the Kurds in the north and the Communist Party in Basra. This time must be considered, so as to have the greatest impact, and let ordinary people think that the Communist Party’s rise to power is a foregone conclusion and accept the reality. .” Ustinov outlined a few places with a pencil, “Hopefully we can win big.”
“I have been preparing for today for many years.” Serov is also very serious. In the Far East, a fleet is battering the waves, full of automatic rifles sailing to Basra, and the Indonesian-flagged ship in Bremer Harbor is slowly leaving , Osad of the Black Sea, a group of men in military uniforms but clearly Middle Eastern faces boarded in the middle of the night.
Telegrams from Moscow and Basra became frequent all of a sudden. The Iraqi Communist Party’s first secretary, Hussein al-Ladi, secretly left the place where he had been living. At the same time, the part of the underground party that had a single line of contact began to communicate from person to person. (To be continued~^~)
