Chapter 90 KGB
In the northern part of Eurasia, on a vast land, there is a red empire.
Over the past few hundred years, the people living in this land have experienced the reform of Peter the Great and the governance of Catherine, and the passion of the vast majority of people has burst out. They have staged a resounding counterattack on the invasion of Napoleon and Hitler from Europe, defeating the most fierce invaders in human history. They have first realized the dream of human space. This great country is called the Soviet Union! []
The full name is the Alliance of Soviet Socialist Republics, and is referred to as the Soviet Union. Its predecessor was the Russian Empire. Under the command of Lenin, the "October Revolution" broke out and a Soviet regime representing workers, peasants and soldiers of all ethnic groups was established. After decades of efforts, the Soviet Union became a red empire that spanned Europe, Asia and Asia, with more than 120 ethnic groups, 22 million square kilometers of territory, and more than 200 million people.
The Soviet Union has developed to this day. Although stability and peace dominated the era of Brezhnev, there was no social unrest caused by the reckless and rash reforms of Khrushchev. It was even more aggressive in military terms. Even the United States had to take a twelve-point spirit to deal with it. At this time, the Soviet Union was still in a period of comprehensive expansion. However, there was a deep crisis hidden here.
The ice is three feet long, and it will take only one day to get cold. The foundation of the empire that collapsed with a bang has long been unstable.
A scientific research strength that can produce the world's most advanced aircraft and tanks and can compete with the largest capitalist countries has extremely scarce material life, heavy industry has developed very strongly, but light industry has developed extremely slowly. More importantly, in this country, bureaucracy is too serious and the problems of the privileged class are very serious.
In this era, the value orientation of young people is the most severe. After the Patriotic War, they have neither experienced the cruelty of the Tsarist system nor the pain of capitalism. They have been educated since childhood and know that they live in an extremely superior socialist system. When they grow up to be young people, they are told that they live in the most developed countries. It is natural that they should be full of expectations for life.
However, real life forms a huge contrast with their expectations: this most developed country cannot provide enough necessities of life; in this country where they are masters of their own country, they should have been the public servants of the people, but they enjoy privileges, embezzlement and bribery, and their lives are luxurious and degenerate, but the masters of the country line up to shop because of lack of supplies, and life is difficult.
Under this state, the ordinary people in the Soviet society were filled with depression, confusion and indifference. Lack of work, alcoholism, and labor discipline were becoming increasingly serious. Many people were late for work, and after they arrived at work, they hurried to the streets to queue up to buy new products. High concentrations of vodka have become their favorite, and alcoholism has become more and more common. In Moscow, various violent conflicts and traffic accidents caused by alcoholism have occurred continuously.
The KGB has keenly realized all this. As one of the most perfect intelligence agencies in the world, the KGB is not only responsible for various intelligence work abroad, but also their domestic ones. The specific ones are responsible for the Twelve Bureaus.
However, it is already very inappropriate to bother the General Secretary for such trivial matters in China. Since this year, Brezhnev's physical condition has not been very good and he often spends time in the hospital. Although the KGB has dispatched a large number of personnel to maintain public order in Moscow, it is a bit of a big deal to report these things to the General Secretary.
And the other major event in the first game, Yuri Vladimirovic Andropov, the chairman of the KGB, had to pay attention.
The First General Administration is an external intelligence reconnaissance department. It leads the spy agencies stationed abroad, conducts intelligence reconnaissance from the Soviet Union, and guides the work of the intelligence reconnaissance teams on the front line of the national security organs in their regions. These departments are called the First General Administration, which reflects the top importance of fighting for foreign enemies.
Now, the director of the first bureau, General Voya Klyuchkov, and also the vice chairman of the KGB, are reporting to Andropov.
"According to the reconnaissance of our agents, there has always been an American force on our Afghan battlefield. They are constantly providing weapons to the Afghan guerrillas, posing a great threat to our soldiers," said Klyuchkov.
"Well, I knew for a long time that we had occupied Afghanistan, but we were very troubled by these guerrillas. We must find out how American weapons were circulated, and then inform the military law and crack down on them severely." Andropov said.
Afghanistan is located in the eastern part of the Iranian Plateau in West Asia. It is the road from land to the Indian Ocean. It has a high strategic position. At the same time, it can also obtain rich oil resources in the Persian Gulf. When the Afghan government gradually wanted to leave the Soviet Union, the Soviet Union finally decided to send troops to Afghanistan.
Two years ago, with the cooperation of the airborne troops, 100,000 Soviet troops occupied Afghanistan in an all-round way. However, the Afghan guerrillas have always been a pain in the hearts of the Soviet army. They can't be destroyed and can't be wiped out. They jumped out of nowhere and shot themselves a few times before running away.
"In addition to these, there have been some changes in the war between Iraq and Iran," Kluchkov said.
"What changes?" asked Andporov.
Iraq and Iran have a lot to do with the Soviet Union's strategy. Iran was originally pro-US, so the Soviet Union has always been trying to win over Egypt, Syria, and Iraq. Later, Khomeini came to power and overthrew the Bavileges dynasty. The Soviet Union originally wanted to get closer to him, but Khomeini accused him of being a little Satan, so the Soviet Union had no following, but it was even more supportive of Iraq.
The Soviet Union paid more attention to the war situation between Iran and Iran.
"Two months ago, the Iraqi army won a battle in the Susangaild area and wiped out an Iranian armored division. Today, our satellite photos confirmed that the Iraqi army was encircling and annihilated several Iranian legions in the Karen River."
"Yes, this is great news," said Andporov.
"And we also know that the commander behind this battle is Saddam's youngest son, Kusai." Klyuchkov said.
Saddam's youngest son is actually a commanding genius? Andporov is interested.
"From the current situation, what we have collected, Kusai, who was originally studying in Baghdad, suddenly seemed to have become a very smart person. He first smashed the Israeli conspiracy to bomb nuclear reactors, and commanded the battles of Susangild and Karen River. Judging from this trend, Kusai will definitely play an increasingly important role in Iraq in the future.
"Use our secret agents to approach Kusai and win him into our socialist camp." Andropov said.
Saddam is not easy to control. Now, his son has begun to show his strength. A young man who has just debuted is easier to control than a veteran of long-standing politics.
ps: This chapter describes many Soviet issues, which are a bit long-winded. It is to lay the groundwork for the future and make a foreshadowing in advance.
Today is still the same chapter during the day. There will be two chapters around twelve o'clock in the evening. Welcome everyone who is still here to vote for me when clicking.
In the days when there is no recommendation, it is the great support of all readers. The hero of East China has been persisting until now. Although his grades are not very ideal, he has always been full of confidence. I would like to express my gratitude again!
