Big Time 1958
v1 Chapter 682: all-out attack
"The progress in Southeast Asia is gratifying, which allows the United States to refocus on Asia, plus the Middle East, it is much more beneficial to cover our operations in Africa." Shelov only mentioned this aspect at the National Security Conference. Work, just keep your mouth shut. At this kind of security cadre meeting involving the entire Soviet Union, it is not a good thing to talk too much about the national strategy, and he is just blowing it.
It can be seen that the military construction of the United States in Australia has accelerated significantly, but because of the sharp drop in mineral prices, Australia itself is not strong, but the United States continues to allocate billions of aid, which still makes Australia's military strength expand rapidly. . Once the worst outcome occurs, it is not impossible for the United States to retreat to Australia.
Of course, this trend is relatively slow. You can observe it first and then talk about it. The security conference is held every year, and Serov is almost at a loss for words. Besides, some old issues are all clichés. It is estimated that the more than 3,000 security officials below are not willing to listen.
He must have his own theoretical support. In this time and space, Brezhnev looks like a wily man, and the invasion of Czechoslovakia did not happen, so he picked up a theory, the theory of limited sovereignty, as the standard-bearer of Soviet social-imperialism, a hardliner The initiator, Serov can only perfect this aggressive theory as his own system.
Serov is still the leader of the Soviet security cadres, so he can only blow air on such occasions. It won’t affect the grand strategy. It’s okay to say harsh words. After the meeting was halfway through, he was basically selling the private goods of anti-revolutionary workers. , "The big socialist family is an indivisible whole, and the unified action of this big family must be strengthened, and the sovereignty of the members of the big family is only "some kind of incomplete sovereignty." In principle, the big family is the same as the Soviet Union that united the Soviet Republics into a unified Soviet Union. There is basically no difference. Our joint actions with the fraternal countries in Eastern Europe must take into account the overall interests of the socialist big family. Based on this principle, A country must respect the opinions of other countries. "
As soon as this theory came out, a small number of cadres were shocked. All the Soviet security cadres in the auditorium stood up and applauded. The huge cheers almost raised the ceiling. This is the speech that the security cadres like. heart.
"There are common laws of socialism in the world. To leave these common laws is to leave socialism itself. If this happens, the Soviet Union will not stand idly by." Serov continued aggressively holding the speech and read, "It must be Maintain a high degree of consistency with the Soviet Union in diplomacy and closely cooperate with the Soviet Union's foreign policy."
"The Soviet Union and the current socialist countries have an international responsibility to the world today, and we, the Soviet Union, must fulfill this international responsibility. On the one hand, we liberate the existing colonies, which is ideological liberation and physical liberation. The other aspect is to fulfill the historical mission of our great motherland and build an ideal society." When Serov spoke here, all the security cadres had already stood up and looked directly at the chairman who was also standing and reading the speech.
"History allows us to live in this era of change. We will not fail to live up to the expectations of the motherland. In order to fulfill the ideals of the motherland, the anti-rebel workers must not be afraid of sacrifice. This is our mission." He read the last sentence, Throwing the manuscript on the table, Serov shouted loudly, "Chka, as the sword drawn by the Soviets..."
"Only by sniffing out and eradicating traitors..." The response of the three thousand security cadres was equally enthusiastic, which made Andropov, the secretary of the Central Committee, who was in attendance, also startled, and then shook his head slightly. This was the most atmospheric plenary meeting.
"Backed by nuclear weapons, making full use of the advantages of conventional ground forces and favorable geographical conditions, with Europe as the main battlefield, preparing to fight a large-scale ground blitz with NATO mainly using conventional weapons; using the Asia-Pacific region as an auxiliary direction, Contain and disperse U.S. forces, harass and destroy the sea lines of communication in the West, and prevent U.S. reinforcements to ensure the victory of the decisive battle in Europe." At the meeting of the Central Presidium, Defense Minister Marshal Grechko described the latest strategic thinking of the Soviet military. .
"Well! Very good." Brezhnev put on his glasses, carefully read the plans of the Ministry of Defense, and then said slowly, "The strengthening of economic and national defense forces has enabled the Soviet Union to triumph on the international stage. There may not be a corner of the planet that is not considered in some way when developing foreign policy.”
"Comrades, when the Western world is in an unprecedented economic recession, the Soviet Union should act as a brand-new force to expel these imperialist countries! This is our international responsibility." Brezhnev said here, looked for a moment. Serov, who was speaking, asked, "Is that so, Yura..."
"We are the only motherland of the world's proletarians. An internationalist cannot defend the Soviet Union unconditionally. He is not an internationalist. Everything we do is for the sake of a better world." Shelov said very coldly, " The plans we make must be implemented without compromise.”
"We would rather make sacrifices economically and fight against the United States to the end. Any price is worth it, not to mention that our economy has not been affected at all. I believe Comrade Kosygin has more say than me." Secretary of the Central Committee Ustinov stood on Serov's side and said what he thought.
"We have been developing for so many years. With our domestic economic and military power, we must clearly tell the Americans that the Soviet Union must speak its own voice. If the United States is not willing to do so, then we can only shut up the Americans. This After all, the world still believes in strength!" Xie Lepin, chairman of the Supreme Soviet, concluded, "Americans especially value military power!"
"Well, very good, the unity of the comrades makes me very happy. However, I have only one plan to temporarily stop these plans, and that is the problem of Turkey!" Brezhnev stopped Serov and said, "Turkey is a NATO member. Member States, we can't rashly go to war, even though I hate this country more than anyone else."
"Of course, if the premise of the plan is established, and there is a NATO civil war between Greece and Turkey, then the plan will be implemented, and a military operation with a duration of no more than one month can be considered!" Brezhnev did not say anything to death.
"Thank you!" There was a smile on the corner of Serov's mouth. Turkey will not be a problem after this year. Brezhnev's statement is enough, which is unexpected by anyone.
While Serov was criticized by the Western European media for his theory of limited sovereignty, the Soviet Union launched a diplomatic offensive against African countries. Andrei Gromyko visited Sudan, Congo, Ethiopia, and signed military alliances with the three countries. and then went to Tanzania, Nigeria, and Kenya to sign economic cooperation treaties, and began to make arrangements for the Soviet Union in Africa.
Andrei Gromyko was not idle during his visit. Every time he visited a country, he criticized the damage caused by colonialism to Africa. African countries exerted their influence, targeting Portugal, which did not give up its colonies.
"We have seen the greed of the colonialists. I would like to advise once again that colonialism is outdated. A certain country should abandon this ancient exploitation and learn from the precedent." Andrei Gromyko's speech in Khartoum , was considered a Soviet warning to Portugal, and Angola's opponents were known to be Soviet-backed.
Lubyanka KGB headquarters, Serov has just sent off the special envoy who returned from Havana, Cuba has agreed to follow the terms of the treaty between the two countries, to help the Soviet Union's strategic offensive, and also agreed to send troops to South Yemen, Cuba's 15,000 troops Paratroopers, 3,000 infantrymen were prepared in South Yemen.
After a walk from Africa, Andrei Gromyko flew to Afghanistan and held talks with Daoud, who had become the President of Afghanistan. The Soviet Union and Afghanistan signed a friendship treaty, and established a military base in Afghanistan. After this visit, the Soviet Union has completed its strategic layout.
During the visit, the two sides discussed the issue of Pashtunistan, and Andrei Gromyko gave Daoud clear support. If necessary, the common needs of Afghanistan and India will be considered by the Soviet Union. Of course, this needs to wait for an opportunity. Before that, Afghanistan should build a reassuring army, which preferably has excellent combat capabilities.
With the efforts of Andrei Gromyko, Daoud agreed to the Soviet Union to send a military advisory group to train the Afghan army and establish a military base in Afghanistan. Lubyanka immediately followed the news and dispatched intelligence cadres in the military advisory group. Inside.
"The north-south attack on Pakistan has already taken place!" Shelov exclaimed, and at the same time there is a plan to cut Africa in half, a revolutionary plan in Southeast Asia, and a military action plan for Turkey.
These plans are carried out almost at the same time. Once started, they will all start within two or three years. Just like Brezhnev said, this is a plan for a full-scale attack, launching a strategic attack on the United States in any field.
This year is still a **** year for Vietnam. Military attacks continued, and North Vietnam regained control of much of South Vietnam's countryside. Only a few big cities were still in the hands of South Vietnam. The South Vietnamese army, which was twice as large as the other side, was actually on the defensive, holding on to several important cities in South Vietnam. Shelov knew that South Vietnam's defeat was only a matter of time. North Vietnam had recovered from the Easter Offensive, received Soviet weapons in Hanoi, and was about to launch an offensive.
