"It's going very well, little by little, sooner or later, there will be a decisive battle." Serov said with the battle reports of the past few days. It's not really interesting to read the battle report. Taking the Great Patriotic War as an example, it is similar to the battle of Stalingrad, in which millions of troops from both sides fought each other with blood, but the battle actually lasted for more than eight months. Whether it's the first crash or the Jedi counterattack, it's only for a few days. Most of the time, both sides are bored with a cold shot from house to house. You die and I die.

  If the Soviet Union relies on Turkey not to withdraw its troops, it is estimated that the current Turkey and Soviet troops will also face this situation. However, if a shameless person like the General Political Commissar made plans, the withdrawal of the Soviet Union was absolutely without hesitation, and it did not even consider post-war reconstruction. It was entirely the Kurds themselves.

The current situation of the civil war in Angola is that UNITA retreats while firing a cold shot. When it retreats to a location that it is very familiar with, it will find an opportunity to clean up the Angolan People's Movement and the Cuban coalition forces. As for where this location is, the ignorant general political commissar is I don't know, this can be analyzed by a professional soldier, he can't see it anyway.

Compared with the current civil war in Angola and Thailand, Serov is more concerned about how the local area network in Portugal is running. Of course, the computers assisted by the Soviet Union are full of socialist goods. The purpose is to help the current leftist government in Portugal stabilize the situation. This small country The risk of a military coup has always existed, but it has failed twice so far, and you don't know when the third will come.

  If the Cuban army can counteract the South African army, both manpower and support are occupied by the SPLM should be able to defeat UNITA. The only thing that makes people suspicious is guerrilla warfare. If guerrilla warfare does not stop, the Soviet Union is still not sure that it will be able to benefit from Angola. Angola's guerrillas rely on the tropical rainforest.

   Serov is going to talk to the minister of the Central Forestry Department. As a person who grew up in a forest area, he thinks he has a little understanding of forest resources, or at least a superficial understanding. , The most superficial understanding is that there is no forest that can't be cut down by loggers, it just depends on whether they want to cut it down.

"Tropical rain forests have an obvious advantage over boreal forests, and that is the growth rate. Coniferous forests grow very slowly because they are located in the frigid zone. Once the forests in an area are cut down, it will take at least twenty or thirty years of rest before they can be rehabilitated. It will restore the vitality of winning, and it is only a preliminary restoration. But the tropical rainforest has 30 years, and it can be completely restored to its original state. So, in principle, can we think of a solution for our country's forest resources?" Shelov is an environmentalist In fact, the Ministry of Forestry of the Central Committee should consider whether part of the logging tasks should be completed in Angola.

   "But what about those lumberjacks? This will cause relatively large unemployment, which is not in line with our national proposition." The director of the Central Forestry Department said with some embarrassment, but this reason is obviously untenable.

Serov glanced at the other party silently and said to himself, "This has nothing to do with unemployment. In fact, if Comrade Minister can care a little about the Ministry of Agriculture, you should know how terrible the shortage of manpower in collective farms in our country is. There are enough machines, but no one uses them. Is it more tiring to be a collective farm worker than a lumberjack? Shouldn't it be? I think there must be another reason."

As the general political commissar, Serov once killed the most manpower-requiring textile industry in the Soviet Union and saved manpower to invest in collective farms. The raw materials are in Central Asian countries. After these textile populations entered Central Asia, the population structure of the Soviet Union looked a lot healthier. On the one hand, it stabilized the advantages of the Slavs and on the other hand, it increased the output of raw materials in the Central Asian Republic. , looks very nice.

The population of the Soviet Union is far from being able to support heavy industry, light industry and agriculture at the same time. In this case, heavy industry and agriculture are of course very important. Only light industry can be cut down. and international dictatorship theory, let other countries complete everything the Soviet Union needs.

   In fact, now the Soviet Union has almost completed everything it needs, and even the most scarce tropical raw materials in history have been solved, and it is more confident to compete with the United States in the economy. If there is anything that is still lacking in the country, it is the agricultural population. The Soviet Union cannot achieve the 2 million mechanized agricultural population of the United States, which can support the entire American population and export relief to other countries, nor can it achieve China. Hundreds of millions of farmers have worked intensively, but the shortage of people in agriculture should at least be supplemented, so that the risks can be more bearable.

   Obviously, the head of the Central Forestry Department in front of him has no noble consciousness of sacrifice, and is not willing to sacrifice his department. This is entirely because of worry that his department will not be valued in the future, and in fact it is not very valued now.

"Tikunov, it's up to you, you oil tiger must have influence in the government, let the Central Forestry Department consider laying off lumberjacks, even if it means to lay off 100,000 people, the forestry resources in Angola and Thailand are very high. Rich, we will definitely make money in the future. Our forest growth cycle is too long, and it is not suitable to export raw materials at all. Did I say that we cannot export at all, just reduce the amount of logging to save manpower.” After the Minister of the Central Forestry Department left, Serov Language bombardment against Tikunov, so it will not save the face of the chief political commissar, is it under investigation?

   "I'll think of a way, don't worry." Tikunov immediately expressed his willingness to help. How could the Central Forestry Department have such a high status as the Ministry of Petroleum Industry, especially now that oil prices have skyrocketed. For modern industry, as long as oil is produced, it will never be unsellable.

   Rambouillet is a summer resort in France, especially in the hot July and August, the French president often works here. The Lambouillet Forest has been very lively this year, welcoming the head of a capitalist power at one time. In this sense, France has received a great honor. Even leftist parties, including the French Communist Party, have to admit this. It is a good opportunity to establish French prestige. The French as the host hosted the summit.

  President Ford also had great respect for France and came to France by plane to attend the summit. Of course, it would be better if the Italian Prime Minister was replaced by another person. For Bellinger, who is also the general secretary of the Italian Communist Party, Ford has some grudges in his heart, especially under the increasingly obvious offensive of the Soviet Union, if Italy learns from Greece , So is NATO intervening or not?

Taking this opportunity, President Ford also chatted with Bellinger for a while to get to know the leader of the Italian Communist Party. In fact, Italy's economy is much better than in history, and there is no obvious gap with Britain and France. It is a representative of European capitalist powers, but obviously the Soviet Union plays a huge role in it. Compared with Britain, France and Germany, Italy's biggest advantage is that from time to time the Communist Party is in power, and it conducts mutually beneficial trade with the Soviet Union.

   "Mr. Chancellor, President Ford and Chancellor Bellinger are talking, do we want to go?" Guint Guillaume reminded the Federal German Chancellor Brandt beside him that this meeting is very important to the Federal Republic of Germany. Including Federal German Chancellor Brandt, all see this as an opportunity for the United States to recognize the status of the Federal Republic of Germany.

Thirty years after World War II ended, Germany was divided into two, and the GDR and GDR stood on both sides of the two camps. Moreover, the recent expansion of the Federal Republic of Germany has caused dissatisfaction in the GDR. It even made Federal German Chancellor Brandt think that Americans should be made to understand that Western European countries are no longer the ruins they used to be, and the rights of the entire capitalist countries should also be re-divided.

"Okay, let's go and have a look." Let the United States recognize the current economic status of the Federal Republic of Germany, which is the main purpose of Federal German Chancellor Brandt's trip. Otherwise, capitalist countries will compete with each other, and the Warsaw Pact will wait and see. Sooner or later, problems will arise, and it is impossible to find the Soviet Union to solve the economic crisis, so what is the basis for confrontation?

   After the leaders of several countries greeted each other, they entered the residence provided by France, and Guillaume had a panoramic view of the whole process. He will also participate in the entire meeting as Brandt's assistant.

  President Ford also understood that it was time to divide the interests again. The economies of Japan and the Federal Republic of Germany were so strong that they could not be supplemented by the United States alone. If the United States forcibly suppresses the two countries to continue to serve as supporting systems for American industries, and keeps the two countries stagnant, the two defeated countries will definitely be very dissatisfied with their development.

The Soviet Union's allies are all countries with a large area and a smaller population, while the United States' allies, on the contrary, have a small area and a large population. 10 out of 10 unemployment.

"The United States is willing to work together with France, the United Kingdom, the Federal Republic of Germany, Japan and Italy to overcome this economic crisis, adjust some policies together, and conduct more equitable free trade." After several days of negotiations, US President Ford finally spoke at the summit meeting. expressed his opinion.

   "The U.S. is still opening its own market, and letting other capitalist countries compete!" Serov can decipher the meaning of this declaration, and the specific things have to wait for the news from Guillaume. It seems that Japan should take off. (To be continued~^~)
