"This old woman is still going to dream of a ZTE Empire? Even if all countries stand by and let the UK win, the UK will continue to decline!" At the time of the Suez War, the British couldn't, and they still can't."

  Margaret Thatcher can slow down the decline of Britain in a short period of time, but in the long run, the decline of Britain, which relies on the financial industry, will be more irreversible. The wife in her arms is as comfortable as a kitten. Valya has been indulging in her husband's embrace, squinting her eyes and muttering, "British and American are powerful enemies, but my husband is even stronger."

   "That's right!" Serov stood up and put on his hat, suddenly pulled Valya into his arms and kissed her red lips heavily. Britain may investigate why the destroyer Sheffield and the Vulcan bomber were destroyed, but right now, for the entire Soviet Union, the most important thing is this year's October Revolution.

  Let the Komsomolskaya Pravda write some comments on the naval battle on the Falklands, and the issue of local supplies on the Falklands. The Argentine Army did not expect that the United Kingdom would really fight, but the Falklands were not guaranteed even the basic rations. After all, it is a big island, and at worst, there are hundreds of thousands of sheep on it for the Argentine army to eat.

"Even if the result is worse, there are still millions of people in Argentina who are ready to fight to the death with the United Kingdom! And the people of Latin America, we will stand with the Argentines." Chilean President Allende said no for the Soviet Union. If I'm too embarrassed to say it, I will try my best to fight the British to the end.

  Chile can't wait for the United Kingdom to deplete Argentina's military power, you know that Argentina is still preparing to go to war with Chile.

"Chile gave Argentina a batch of MiG-23 fighter jets? What's wrong? Is the UK ready to let us intervene?" Foreign Minister Gromyko refuted the wishful thinking of the British reporter and said meaningfully, "For a long time, , the reputation of the Soviet Union in Latin America has always been notorious under the connivance of some major powers. In this war between Britain and Argentina, the Soviet Union will never stop Chile from helping its brothers in Latin America because of British pressure. Otherwise. There is no difference between the Soviet Union and imperialism on an expedition of 10,000 kilometers, and there are not many friendly countries in Latin America, and they will even spurn the Soviet Union.”

   "The UK still wants to interfere in the actions of the Soviet Union, why do they?" In the Kremlin, Defense Minister Marshal Ustinov also repeated this question, which is simply unreasonable.

"Maybe the United States is testing. Reagan likes this trick very much. He knows that Chile is a pro-Soviet country, and the United States has no influence in Chile!" Serov, who was smoking a cigarette, made an irresponsible guess, and the spy chief looked at everything. feel suspicious.

   "Okay, tomorrow is the October Revolution. For us, nothing is more important than tomorrow!" Andropov's face was serious.

  The other committee members also nodded, and only Gromyko, Serov and Ustinov were very concerned about the Falklands War. In fact, if Gromyko were not the Minister of Foreign Affairs, only the KGB and the Ministry of Defense would be interested in the war.

  The fighting in the South Atlantic is temporarily silent. Although there are occasional small touches in the air, shooting down planes is somewhat rare. Also in Moscow, this November seems to be colder than in previous years, and for some people with weak institutions, being generous is a severe test.

On the morning of November 7, Brezhnev woke up very early. He was taciturn, surrounded by Andropov and Chernenko. He was neatly dressed and put on a bearskin hat. Tall Brezhnev was very quiet, and on such a great day he needed to be seen by everyone in the Soviet Union.

A train of cars slowly drove out of the Kremlin to the Red Square. Even when he boarded the reviewing stand, he had to be supported by others. It is no wonder that Brezhnev was plagued by illnesses, especially heart disease, leukemia, jaw Bone cancer, emphysema and circulatory system diseases are the most important. Brezhnev suffered another stroke in the first half of the year and has not recovered since.

But when Brezhnev stood on the rostrum and looked at the crowd below, his waist suddenly straightened up, and a look of light flashed in his dull eyes. For a moment, he returned to his original health. . But under the attack of the cold wind, this state soon disappeared, and it became even more sluggish.

"Sixty-five years ago, the great October Revolution brought a new page to Russia. From that time, our great motherland, the cradle of all nations, our Soviet Union began to appear in the world with a new attitude." Brezhnev stared closely at the speech, and intermittently against the cold wind, he addressed all the soldiers, the masses and the guests who participated in the October Revolution Festival.

  It took a few minutes for Brezhnev to read the brief speech and to celebrate the start of the parade. In Brezhnev's time, the Soviet military had faintly overwhelmed the United States and made progress on all fronts. In the history of Russia, there has never been such a powerful period. Although many people are tired of the general secretary getting old year after year, but still sticking to the rules, it is still not uncommon to see people holding portraits of Lenin and Brezhnev in the oily team. .

  Brezhnev is like a sculpture, silently watching the love people express to him. Precisely because he wanted to see this kind of scene, in 1973, he specially issued an order to extend the review on Red Square for two hours.

  As the phalanxes passed in front of him one by one, Brezhnev looked serious, reflecting the respect of the Chairman of the National Defense Committee for the soldiers, and tried his best to wave to each phalanx. Even though the general secretary already felt that his whole body was numb, and even his smile became a little stiff, he still wanted to reflect his warrior side during the Great Patriotic War.

   is just Brezhnev on the viewing platform. Compared with the phalanx of soldiers walking below, Brezhnev is even older. In the cold wind, Brezhnev stood motionless for three hours until the military parade was completed, and then walked down the viewing platform with the support of two young officers and many members of the Central Presidium.

"General Secretary, are you alright!" Central Secretary Chernenko asked with concern. Brezhnev is already very old. Everyone knows this. As a comrade-in-arms all along, Chernenko is more is very concerned.

   "It's okay!" Brezhnev, who was supported, paused for two seconds before answering, "Go back to the Kremlin."

   There will be a reception after the military parade on Red Square. Brezhnev, who is the general secretary as usual, will also read a toast, although now he can't drink even a glass of wine. In the attention of all the members of the Central Presidium and the heads of the Warsaw Pact states, Brezhnev, who appeared as a master, gave a toast. At this time, the general secretary seemed to have recovered from the cold wind of the Red Square, and once again became a It looks familiar to people, but there are more pauses where it shouldn't be, and the pronunciation is more ambiguous.

   This did not cause anyone to worry, because Brezhnev himself was not good at speech, and his language ability deteriorated even more in old age, except Serov. After the General Secretary's toast was read, Andropov and Chernenko raised their wine glasses one after another, as did Serov, who was holding his wife's arm, expressing his gratitude to the October Revolution and General Secretary Brezhnev's body. bless.

   "Thank you!" Brezhnev picked up the glass with some difficulty, took a symbolic sip, and greeted all the guests who attended the reception to celebrate the official start of the reception. People clink glasses with their comrades one after another, and some foreign guests who attended the reception also greeted each other to connect their feelings on this occasion.

"Valia, walk with me!" Serov holds a wine glass in one hand and his wife's arm in the other. This is the top banquet hall of the Kremlin Auditorium. The 900-square-meter banquet hall gathers dignitaries from all over the world. . Andropov and Chernenko were very busy. Brezhnev stayed for a while and left the banquet hall to rest. He happened to meet the Serov and his wife who were far away from the banquet center.

   "General Secretary, pay attention to rest!" Serov bowed his head slightly and greeted General Secretary Brezhnev with a gentle attitude.

"Thank you, Yura!" Brezhnev's smile was equally gentle, and he wanted to say a few more words, but he felt a sense of tiredness hit him, just nodded to Valya and left the banquet hall.

   Looking at Brezhnev's back, Serov's face showed a trace of relief, which was clearly captured by the woman beside him, and whispered, "Your expression just now seemed to be relieved. I thought you were different from others."

"He is the general secretary. Facing this position, how can I be different from others?" Serov, who tilted his head, chuckled and focused his attention on the center of the banquet again. Serov felt it was boring, and after a while he took his wife with him. left here.

Brezhnev, who was helped back to the Kremlin to rest, was checked by Nina, and then lay groggy on the bed. Brezhnev, who was lying on the bed, was playing like a movie in front of him. In the experience of my life, the whole person is half asleep, but the eyelids have never been so heavy.

   Four hours later, when Nina came in again to check, Brezhnev was already in a coma. Nina was shocked and immediately notified the other members who attended the banquet. Shelov received the report immediately and rushed directly to the Kremlin.

   "Rescue the general secretary immediately, and we don't mess up first!" Andropov calmly ordered.
