Big Time 1958
v1 Chapter 794: imperialist
"Speaking of which, should Yugoslavia, like other countries, follow the Soviet Union's command?" Tito said with a cold smile, "From Stalin, to Khrushchev, Brezhnev, there is no such idea. successful."
Serov's face was full of smiles, but he didn't pierce Tito's pride. Times have changed, and Stalin was unable to succeed because the Great Patriotic War was devastated by the Soviet Union. At that time, the strength of the United States and the Soviet Union was too far behind. No matter how strong Stalin himself was, no matter how high his methods and prestige were, he could not change the fact that the Soviet Union was incapable of national strength.
During Stalin's term, the Soviet Union did not make as much progress as during the Khrushchev and Blizhnev eras. The latter is completely on a par with Stalin in terms of ability. There is another reason, that is, Stalin wanted to convince Tito and make the entire Yugoslavia as a whole cooperate with the Soviet Union's strategy, instead of breaking Yugoslavia, so he would not dismember Yugoslavia to achieve his goal. The Iron Leader wants the whole, not the broken Yugoslavia.
Yugoslavia as a whole can provide a strong boost to the Soviet Union and a strong support for Eastern Europe, which suffered heavy losses at that time. However, more than 30 years have passed since the Second World War, and the world has changed. It cannot be said that the Soviet Union's national strength has caught up with the United States. The accession of Yugoslavia to the Warsaw Pact still has a role, but not as much as it did thirty years ago.
Serov's options are even more diverse, and Yugoslavia as a whole is good to be obedient. If they are not obedient, they will be divided into Serbia and Croatia, and they will join the Warsaw Pact as allies of the Soviet Union.
As long as Serov is determined to get along with Yugoslavia, he can achieve what he wants. It is to use the Warsaw Pact to crush Yugoslavia and tell the Yugoslavs that NATO cannot save you this time.
"You are so old, don't think that there will be a second Tito, no one has such qualifications. And Yugoslavia, which seems to be relatively calm now, in my eyes, has too many places to make a fuss. Too There are too many, all of which are places to intervene." Serov was completely evaluating Yugoslavia as an enemy at this time.
This indifference made Tito, who was 88 years old, very uncomfortable. Even Stalin just wanted to convince Yugoslavia and make Yugoslavia cooperate with the Soviet Union's strategy. Brezhnev also took a tender attitude towards Yugoslavia. Although the two of them did not have a crooked mind towards Yugoslavia, at least they did not express such obvious hostility.
Now, the General Political Commissar of the Soviet Union's National Security in front of him is reluctant to even speak about class feelings. He is completely imperialist. He has gone a step further than the previous two and began to try to dismember Yugoslavia.
"You won't succeed!" Tito, who was wearing a marshal's uniform, grabbed the armrest of the chair with both hands and said word by word, "This is an act of aggression. Don't think that there is only one country in the world, the Soviet Union."
"I won't succeed?" Serov said with a snort and a chuckle, "A victory for the United States will destroy all socialist countries including the Soviet Union. There are no multi-ethnic countries in Western Europe, and Yugoslavia will definitely become a new one in accordance with the principle of national self-determination. This independent small country was destroyed by each. The Soviet Union won, how do you say I should deal with you, a traitor to socialism? I should be a little less emotional, but I won't teach Yugoslavia a lesson. Other countries will learn from you. This is not a bigger trouble. What? You forgot how you advocated the Non-Aligned Movement in the first place? You forgot to confront the Soviet Union? You forgot that you openly disagreed with the Soviet Union, you forgot that you always use the United States to balance the Soviet Union's policy? If you don't have any of these Forget, why should I let you go? I won't let any traitor, any one..."
Every time a question was raised, Serov went a step further until the distance between the two was only one meter, and his glasses looked at Tito's eyes without evading and said, "You are old, you have realized this yourself, otherwise you will not be right. The Soviet Union tried well. But this is not the reason Yugoslavia should be forgiven. The Soviet Union never got a little help from Yugoslavia, so there is no need to talk about class feelings with Yugoslavia. In my memory, Yugoslavia just kept demolishing the Soviet Union. China also Although they continue to demolish the Soviet Union, at least until a few years ago, they helped the Soviet Union share the strong pressure and jointly established several socialist countries in Southeast Asia with the Soviet Union. What did Yugoslavia do?"
"Maybe I should get rid of you here and get rid of the enemies of the future country." Marshal Tito slapped his chair, with a murderous intention in his heart, and said indifferently, "As long as you get rid of you, Yugoslavia will be stable in the future."
"Haha, do you want to kill me unknowingly and create a scene of natural death? I set a time when I came in. If I don't go out after 20 minutes, I will bring 200 anti-rebel workers with me. You can try to create two hundred accidents and kill everyone I brought at the same time. I wonder if Moscow will believe that we all died accidentally? Huh?" Serov wanted to hold back his laughter, but In the end, he couldn't hold back, "I am such a careful person, I must never give others the opportunity to assassinate me. I can kill me if I want, but I must kill it..."
"If I don't go out now, they will rush in. Once the fight starts, your visit to Moscow to ease relations with the Soviet Union will be in vain." Having said that, Serov's buttocks did not move like lead. place. It's as if he is the bystander, and he has the mentality of watching the excitement and not taking it too seriously.
Sherov's behavior is very immoral, and it is completely bullying Tito's hero who has almost finished his life. But then again, if it wasn't like that, it would have been twenty years ago. Tito will never ignore his threats, and Serov will not say these words to Tito. At the right time, at the right place, saying the right thing, doing the right thing, will let him face a battle from the battlefield. The leader who has come down can still prevail.
"Comrade Serov, you just arrived in Belgrade, let's take a rest first." Tito's right hand clenched tightly, but then released it again, and said with a helpless tone, "I believe you also want to see Yugoslavia up close."
"I do mean that, then, we'll see you when we have time." Tito didn't tell Serov to leave quickly, and Serov didn't mean to leave quickly, but he sailed carefully for ten thousand years, and the chief political commissar had decided not to eat anything from Yugoslavia.
In all fairness, Yugoslavia in 1979 no longer had the overwhelming economic advantage it had over the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe ten years ago. This was because the results of the Soviet Union's strategic offensive were increasingly being fed back to China. The Warsaw Pact Group has caught up, but on the surface, Yugoslavia still looks more dynamic.
Yugoslavia's so-called socialist system of self-government is the distant cause of its split. The combination of profit-oriented so-called self-governing labor enterprises with local governments, coupled with financial institutions controlled by the republics, has led to the solidification of economic imbalances between regions, which is further strengthened by economic cooperation with foreign capital. Over time, the country lost its unified economic foundation, and political divisions became inevitable after the death of the strongman Tito and the withering of a generation that experienced the extreme nationalist terror of World War II. But if it wants to touch Yugoslavia, there is a premise that the Soviet Union does not care about the country, so as long as the Soviet Union exists for one day, the West will not dismember Yugoslavia.
On the contrary, once the Soviet Union is ready to attack Yugoslavia, NATO countries will also prepare to be a wet nurse, improve Yugoslavia's resistance through economic assistance, relieve Yugoslavia's worries, and make Yugoslavia tougher against the Soviet Union.
"Chairman, maybe we shouldn't come out. What if Tito wants to kill you?" Valya has always followed Serov's side. Yugoslavia's vigilance against the Soviet Union has always been more serious than that of Western countries.
"What are you afraid of? My life is more important, or the fate of the country is more important? I may choose the former, but Tito will choose the latter. If I dismember Yugoslavia, he can solve it. Then he may kill me, if No, he will invite me to talk in a few days." Shelov said indifferently.
If Tito knew he was dead, Yugoslavia would be brought down because of the collapse of the Soviet Union. In the following, he may regret his policy. If he knew this earlier, it would be better to cooperate with the Soviet Union's policy and use the third-strongest military force in Eastern Europe to deal with NATO. There is no regret medicine in the world, as to why the Communist Party of Yugoslavia and the People's Army did not prevent the country from disintegrating. This is a bigger problem, the local government commanding the border guards, the People's Army, which maintains the country, has been abandoned.
Some later generations have wronged Tito. Yugoslavia itself is a country without a major ethnic group. Serbs themselves occupy less than 40% of the population. Tito has suppressed Serbia, but he did not deliberately separate a new nation. What's more, Tito not only suppressed Serbia himself, but also suppressed any separatist forces.
The next day, someone from the Yugoslav Presidential Palace invited Serov, a member of the Soviet Central Presidium, to go to the Presidential Palace again, where Marshal Tito was waiting. This is the second meeting between the two in Belgrade. Compared with the first meeting two days ago, the two have calmed down and are ready to really talk about the relationship between the Soviet Union and Yugoslavia.
"Do you really regard Yugoslavia as an enemy of the Soviet Union?" Tito finally asked after a long time.
"You have to ask yourself, Marshal Tito, the Yugoslavia under your leadership has always been wary of the Soviet Union, and the Soviet Union is very fair to Yugoslavia!" Serov said silently, "It's just that the Soviet Union is strong, and your pressure is even greater." (To be continued~^~)
