Big Time 1958

v1 Chapter 332: Riga

It is undeniable that the nuclear weapons of the United States have an overwhelming advantage over the Soviet Union in this era. This was not the 1970s when Brezhnev vigorously developed armaments, and it was precisely because of the Cuban Missile Crisis that the Soviet Union was embarrassed. Crazy to overwhelm America militarily. The Soviet Union in 1962 could only play a little heartbeat. In other words, the Soviet Union and North Korea, which seemed a little crazy in later generations, were actually similar in that they played nuclear blackmail. The reason why they did not get the same treatment as North Korea is also partly due to China. The most aggressive people are not the Soviets.

The decision to send missiles to Cuba has been issued, and Serov proposed to conduct a detailed risk assessment in the name of the KGB Presidium, which is much more detailed than the analysis he made in the Central Presidium that day. There are two main disadvantages. The huge disparity in the number of nuclear weapons and the expected naval disparity between the US and the Soviet Union, plus the limitation of away battles, was finally delivered to the Kremlin by Chairman Semichasny and handed over to the First Secretary of the Kremlin. Rushchev.

Riga is the capital of the Republic of Latvia, and the Gulf of Riga is a large port on the Baltic Sea. The three Baltic countries, as the republics that were finally incorporated into the Soviet Union, have always had a certain resistance, but the Soviet Union is definitely not aggression, because it was part of the Russian Empire during the imperial Russia period, and it was lost. Not every country can do it, but the Soviet Union during Stalin's time has done it. A post-war socialist camp; standing above the world.

"It must be clear that the discipline of this operation is. In the case of our cooperation with the Ministry of National Defense, the task of our anti-rebel workers is to improve the discipline until the end of the task." Serov, who stood in the dark, only saw from a distance The cigarette butts on his fingers let people know there was someone watching, but that didn't stop him from continuing to give orders here.

   It was twelve o'clock in the evening, and the whole port was silent. Everything is dormant. But in fact, this is all superficial, the port is very busy now. It's just that the lights are not turned on. The flashlights equipped with the safety helmets on the workers' heads provide basic lighting for busy work. The things they loaded on the ship were the nuclear missiles in active service in the Soviet Union. All nuclear missiles, regardless of type, have been dismantled in batches. As for the soldiers and assemblers who maintained these nuclear missiles, they had already gone to Cuba in advance, and the people and the missiles would be separated. It will be reassembled when it arrives in Cuba.

   It is quite strange to give orders in such a place. Serov specially set up a telescope on the top floor of the KGB headquarters in Latvia to supervise the workers on the dock in the dark. Even the KGB anti-rebel workers behind him are a little strange. A person ran to the top floor to detect in the dark. If they were found in any other occasion, it must be the result of being killed on the spot.

   "First Vice Chairman, the reconnaissance plane has landed!" At this moment, a soldier who climbed up from the vent reported.

   "Okay, let's go back right away!" Shelov agreed, put down the telescope, and climbed down the stairs.

   Latvian KGB headquarters, in Latvia. The KGB has a surveillance network dedicated to reporting anti-Soviet Latvians. Many political dissidents, artists and writers have been arrested by the KGB. Many of them are locked in this headquarters. The ground floor and basement are the interior of the Latvian KGB headquarters. Prisons, every KGB headquarters has a secret prison, of course, the general city headquarters detention center has a stronger meaning. But places like the Baltic countries where anti-Soviet activities are rampant. The inner prison has a stronger sense of mission. There are 50 cells and 180 beds in the entire building of the Latvian KGB Internal Prison. As for the number of people currently detained, there are about 400 people. The extra people can sleep in the ground, and they can't even bear this kind of suffering. How dare you say that you are fighting for freedom?

Passing by, Serov stepped on the hard concrete floor and made a squeaking sound. As for the number of people in the cells on the left and right, it was not within his scope of concern, but the image of the corridor was indeed not very good. Serov walked as he walked. He ordered, "You have nothing to do with the damp walls, and you have to repaint every summer. How can you make it look like a suburban warehouse? This delays the image of our anti-revolutionary workers..." The person next to him They all nodded yes and decided to sell paint tomorrow to repaint the headquarters.

"If the internal prison is full, send people directly to the Kazan prison. Now the cells there are very abundant, and you can also solve the burden on your Latvian side." Serov arrived at the conference room and took it off directly. The big-brimmed hat on his head said without delay, "Magnify the aerial photos immediately, double the magnification each time, and convene relevant experts to conduct research. We need to obtain the exact data of nighttime investigation, which is very important!"

It is actually quite strange. When the Soviet Union was about to disintegrate, the Soviet Ministry of Internal Affairs was filled with Latvians who were willing to defend the Soviet Union. At that time, about a quarter of the cadres of the entire Soviet Ministry of Internal Affairs were Latvians, and the leader was the Minister of Internal Affairs. Pugo, in the end Pugo committed suicide because of the failed coup. People from the Ministry of Internal Affairs are all opposed to the disintegration of the Soviet Union. It can be seen that this thing has nothing to do with national feelings, or the **** is more likely to decide the head.

Letting the Soviet Union's own reconnaissance planes reconnaissance on the port is actually a risky thing. The Soviet Union's technology in this area is definitely not as strong as that of the United States, so Shelov asked the military's reconnaissance plane to approach the reconnaissance, in order to assess the same in the dark night. Did American reconnaissance planes have the ability to detect the clues of Soviet nuclear missiles? If these developed photos can't prove anything, then I believe that the American reconnaissance plane should not respond.

   "Zoom in, zoom in, keep zooming in!" Sheloff is not an expert, and he couldn't see the clue after watching it for a long time, so he had to ask the professional next to him, "How is it, there is no problem?"

  Professionals doubt whether their chief should wear glasses? It's a pity that you can't see things clearly with such big eyes. Although he thought so, he still said, "First Vice-Chairman, the investigation results are quite poor. If we hadn't known in advance that this was an aerial photo of the port, we wouldn't have done it at all. Knowing where the shots were taken, let alone seeing the goods!"

   "That's good!" I believe that even if the American reconnaissance plane is better than the Soviet equipment, it should be very limited. As the first deputy chairman of the KGB, he has this confidence. No country is better than the Soviet Union in terms of espionage equipment. As the Soviet Union's conscience department, how can the KGB be compared with the great ancestors of the Ministry of Defense? Compared with the thinking of those marshals of the Ministry of Defense who can't turn the corner, the KGB's code must be remembered. Usually, we don't solve problems head-on, not because the KGB can't fight, but because we put the choice of hands at the end, the fact With the military power of the KGB, most countries can also be destroyed.

Action is the last option of the KGB, just like Germany built concentration camps to kill people, while the Soviet Union built the Gulag to provide these criminals with the opportunity to rehabilitate themselves. Usually, the Gulag is not willing to kill people and kills all the prisoners. What about going to unconditional work? Can no work be profitable?

   "Very good, comrades have worked hard, you can go to rest." Serov, who had completed the work, let out a sigh of relief and let his subordinates go to rest. As for himself, he planned to rest here for a night and return to Moscow tomorrow.

When he left Riga, Serov also gave an order to the KGB in the three Baltic countries to have the National Security Bureau and the General Directorate of Internal Affairs under the National Security Council in these places send the local anti-Soviet elements to the Kazan prison. These people are also being held by Serov. Among those who have given up, since they are unwilling to be Soviets, we cannot force them, right? Although the Soviet Union did not have the freedom they wanted, the United States did. The motherland can only help you get here. When you come to the United States, you can pursue great ideals in the air of freedom.

"In view of the current situation in Kazan Prison, starting from June 12, the National Security Committee of the Union Republics, the NKVD, the local State Security Bureau, the General Directorate of Internal Affairs, and their subordinate departments will be able to bring your local criminals Transported to Kazan, which can solve the problem of aging local facilities and insufficient public resources, the first vice chairman of the Soviet State Security Committee, General Yuri Yefimovich Shelov proposed, at the meeting of the KGB Presidium on the same day. effective..."

In the office of President Semichasny on 11 Lubyanka Square, Serov, who had just returned, followed Semichasny to his office after the meeting of the Presidium, and the two sat down face to face, according to the Central Presidium. It was decided that Semichasny, who was the top leader, was naturally the commander-in-chief of the KGB, and he also sent Serov to go to Riga this time.

   "Have you got the necessary data?" Semichasne poured two glasses of water from the water dispenser and handed it directly to Serov.

"The experiment on reconnaissance aircraft in the dark has been completed. As long as the Ministry of Defense strictly abides by discipline and does not operate during the day, there should be no problems. Should we send personnel to follow? Our soldiers participating in the Ministry of Defense will definitely not dare to violate discipline. !" Serov drank the water in the glass and asked Semichasny with his legs crossed.

"This is also my idea. From the scope of responsibility overseas, it should be the scope of the First General Administration, but their personnel are all stationed abroad. We should select anti-rebel workers from the garrison representatives of the General Administration of Military Administration. Fang's people will accept it!" Shemichasne seemed to be asking, "Who do you think is more suitable?" (To be continued~^~)
