Big Time 1958
v1 Chapter 756: handover
"I'm leaving first, I always think I'll pay attention to Angola." It's not interesting to stay, and even disturbing Brezhnev to enjoy family happiness from here, Serov wearing a high hat left Brezhnev's house directly. Family.
"Don't go yet, I want to talk to you about this." Brezhnev stood up to keep Serov, even forgetting his daughter and son-in-law, because he felt that on the issue of Angola, he could actually talk about it. Whether there will be a conflict is the second, the key is to directly send troops to participate in the war, which seems a little inappropriate.
The two walked up the stairs slowly, and the sound of footsteps echoed in the house, leaving behind Brezhnev's wife and family members. A trace of doubt flashed in Churbanov's eyes. According to his understanding, Brezhnev's wife and family were left behind. Zhinev and Shelov belong to two completely different groups of characters, and Shelov is obviously more inclined to the Supreme Soviet Chairman Shelepin. When were you so close?
Churbanov did not know that Serov had rescued Brezhnev in Mongolia. The entire Soviet Union did not know that the general secretary suffered a second stroke in a short period of time last year. Only Serov was present at the time. This is the general secretary. And the secret of the General Political Commissar.
Brezhnev's study is upstairs. Usually there is no one in the study, and Brezhnev does not come back often, but the study is very clean and spotless. All the books are neatly arranged, which shows how careful the hostess is.
"Yura, why do you want to intervene in person? We can just fight proxy wars as before." Brezhnev was thinking about the image of the Soviet Union. Once he sent his own soldiers, it was easy to be reminiscent of the past. the colonists.
Serov suddenly discovered one thing, that is, the Soviet Union still has an image in this era? Yes, the invasion of Czechoslovakia did not happen again. In the Poland-Hungary incident more than ten years ago, Serov was commanded remotely through the advisory department to allow the two countries to complete the internal cleaning. The reputation of the Soviet Union now is really much better than in history. .
"But South Africa is not an ordinary country. If it is to attack South Africa, no country can win except us and the United States, not even Britain and France. Even if I plan it, I am not prepared to attack the mainland of South Africa, but the first meeting between the two sides , the Soviet Union must kill South Africa's attempt beautifully for the first time, otherwise it is very likely that there will be a situation where the war cannot be ended. It is expected that it will take ten or eight years to assist Angola, and I would rather exchange human life for time." Since Brezhnev also When asked, Serov said bluntly, as long as South Africa takes a step back and does not want the United States to be a pawn, the two sides can completely talk.
In the 1970s, there was no country that could hold down South Africa politically, except for the Big Five. In addition to the Soviet Union and the six countries of the United States, Britain, France, Germany and Japan, there is no industry that can suppress South Africa. Apart from the fact that the US and the Soviet Union are better militarily than South Africa, it is worthwhile to change any country to South Africa, and of course others are also worthwhile. That was the status of South Africa in the seventies. Otherwise, the major powers of the United States, the Soviet Union, Britain, France and China would not have been isolating South Africa in the United Nations. They could only condemn it because they did not dare to fight.
After full consideration, in the face of South Africa, Serov still made a decision to intervene, and to intervene faster and more powerfully. Not only did Cuba send troops to fight, the Soviet Union also sent troops to participate in the war, as long as South Africa dared to do so. Send the army to intervene, and the first battle will hurt it.
The Angolan civil war in history lasted for more than ten years until the disintegration of the Soviet Union, and the Soviet Union did not know how much money it spent in this bottomless pit. Brezhnev thought for a moment and sighed, "South Africa is indeed very strong, and it would be good for them to learn a lesson. Anyway, this country is also our enemy, and it is more thorough."
This statement means that Brezhnev agreed, knowing that South Africa is strong, Brezhnev is still preparing to pull his teeth out. He thinks completely different from Serov. South Africa is the enemy of the Soviet Union, and there are many kinds of enemies. According to the original history, China and the Soviet Union were at war with each other, but they did not develop to the point of breaking diplomatic relations. But South Africa dared to do so. Just after the end of World War II, South Africa fell into the arms of the United States, and when no other country dared to be so hostile to the Soviet Union, it said goodbye to the Soviet Union by breaking diplomatic relations. This is a great shame for the Soviet Union.
If South Africa doesn't do anything, Brezhnev can still pretend he doesn't see this country, but if he acts as a **** for the United States and opposes the Soviet Union as Serov said, then Brezhnev did not let the Soviet Union suppress it in the United Nations. The problem is, his idea is similar to that of Shelov, who just died in South Africa after going into battle in person.
"Hey! Brezhnev is such a moderate person. If the Soviet Union in Stalin's time was like today, maybe the Soviet Union would really dare to go to war with the whole world. It's terrible, terrible!" Serov, who returned home, kept breaking Broken thoughts, I forgot that the proposal to do it myself was made by myself.
In history, the Soviet Union personally came forward to gather thugs to kill South Africa. After the end of World War II, South Africa quickly broke off diplomatic relations with the Soviet Union and led to the United States. South Africa felt that it was far away from the Soviet Union. a war of attrition. Even with the withdrawal of troops from Afghanistan, it has been fighting with South Africa to the point of disintegration.
The 1,500-strong Alpha Force swept through Soviet freighters, as it did during the Cuban Missile Crisis, but much smaller and easier to hide, sailing into the Mediterranean on the Black Sea and landing in Angola on the way to the Atlantic. In fact, the Soviet Union can be a bit domineering and send strategic transport aircraft airdrops, but the most important action is concealment, and the publicity can be carried out after the war begins.
The Soviet Union's assistance to the Portuguese colonial army in returning home was not without quid pro quo. One of the quid pro quos is the arsenal left by Portugal in the colonies. Anyway, these soldiers may not be soldiers when they return to China. Portugal is also unstable in the country, it is better to sell the country's weapons directly to the Soviets. This trick is very familiar. After the end of the Cold War, the Federal Republic of Germany dealt with the Western clusters that wanted to withdraw their troops. Shelov gained useful experience, and now the Portuguese colonial army is trying the effect.
Watches, electric fans, clothing and accessories shipped from the Soviet Union were exchanged for some of the weapons of the Portuguese colonial army, and then the weapons were directly handed over to the Angola People’s Movement supported by the Soviet Union. If the Soviet Union did not expect a civil war in Angola in history, It was only after the Soviet Union decided to intervene that the An People's Movement turned the corner. Now, on the contrary, if there was no foreign intervention, the An People's Movement would have a force of 44,000 people to fight two at a time and clean up the UNITA and the Anjie.
The attitude of the Soviet Union in this war is to take the initiative to prepare. Once South Africa provokes, it will respond quickly, and at the same time kill the two parties of UNITA and UNITA. Once South Africa stops, the Soviet Union will not burn the war into South Africa.
Angola is still in general peace at this time, at least in the eyes of KGB observers. Four-fifths of the Portuguese colonial forces in Angola and Mozambique have been withdrawn. Luanda is the capital and most important port of Angola. It is also the planned capital of Angola. It now has a population of about 600,000 people, more than half of which are Portuguese, and now the Portuguese are making the last retreat. After the last 50,000 Portuguese, including soldiers, left, white Angolans were ignored. Neighboring Mozambique did it earlier, also using the port of Luanda to return home by boat.
"To be honest, this is a good place, much better than our native natural conditions. If this is a country with a majority of Portuguese, maybe it will become our homeland. By the way, your Soviet Union's Siberia area is Isn't it a colony? Why are you a native country, and we are a colony."
In an open-air street bar, two people drink face-to-face under the shade cloth, but although they are both white, their clothes are completely different. One is dressed as a local colonial army officer, and the other is dressed in Warsaw The summer military uniform, the content of the chat is not very friendly, but very candid.
Things have progressed to this day, Portugal can no longer operate the colonial institutions, so it must retreat to the mainland. Whether or not the Portuguese officer had grudges in his heart, the matter was a foregone conclusion.
"If it's really a white majority, maybe this place can really become part of Portugal. Mixed blood is not good, isn't Brazil so independent? You colonists are racist, and you don't intermarry with black people at all. This is not the case in the Soviet Union. , of course, there are no black people in the Soviet Union." The Soviet officer took a sip of beer and said in Portuguese, "Actually, whether black people can make the country work well, I don't know. Who knows what will happen in the future?"
"We are already trying our best to erase your colonial traces. For more than a year, the Portuguese soldiers have been trying their best to help the Angolan army get on the right track, and a little bit to the Angolans how to run the government and build some public facilities. This is actually not bad, you guys It is a peaceful breakup with this land, and it may maintain a certain influence in the future." The Soviet officer drank his beer and said, "What about you? Have you set a date to board the ship?"
"On the 15th of next month, I will return to China at that time. I don't know if I can still be a soldier in the future." The Portuguese officer gestured for another drink. He was used to life in Angola and wondered if he would be able to return to China. Habit.
"Maybe you can come back, but don't come back as colonists." The Soviet officer laughed, and the two people's wine bottles collided. The freighter docked, and the flag seemed to be the Soviet Union. "We disembark at night and enter Luanda with cover." The commander of the Alpha Force ordered.
"Yes!" This order from inside the ship did not delay the two who were drinking in the port area and continued to exchange glasses. (To be continued~^~)
