MTL - Big Time 1958-Chapter 998 Yanayev

  Life is not a novel, it can't be wonderful all the time. If Serov and Reagan are two ordinary people, they can go to each other's troubles at any time, but it is different as the leaders of the two countries. The country has the ability to bear, but because of the difference in national strength, the country does not fight hooligans and fights every day.

   Looking back now, the Soviet Union has caused a lot of trouble for the United States throughout this year. To be fair, Serov feels that he is only one step away from victory. The more important it is, the more steady the pace.

"It just so happens that this storm still needs to ferment. We will wait a year before making any moves. The country must respond to the United States with the strongest attitude!" Serov, who had been thinking for a long time, nodded and then asked, "Comrade Tikhonov is very old. , how about you succeed him as chairman of the Council of Ministers?"

"Sometimes, missed opportunities are missed forever. Maybe I didn't have the luck to enter the center." Sherbitsky shook his head slightly, as if looking at everything, "I'm seventy years old, what else do I need to snatch? I'm not necessarily in better health than Tikhonov, do you want to have a state funeral every year?"

   For the position of the chairman of the Council of Ministers, Shcherbitsky clearly refused. At first, he had the opportunity to become the final candidate for general secretary, but he could not pose a threat to Andropov, who was close to the water. In one's life, there is really only one chance, and if you miss it, you will miss it forever.

"I really should promote some reliable young cadres to do things. The age of Chebrikov and Bobkov also does not guarantee a healthy state. When people are old, everything is possible." Serov told the political establishment of the Soviet Union He has always adopted a conservative treatment attitude, first breaking the ice at the level of the Central Committee, but did not make a big deal of the highest level of the Central Presidium.

   Sherbitsky did not respond. This is the responsibility of the general secretary. He can only listen by the side, and he can’t control how to adjust it.

   "In view of the importance of the protection of the working class and the replacement of the new generation of cadres, I think Comrade Yanayev is qualified to serve in the Central Presidium, which also shows that the state attaches great importance to the treatment of the working class."

After    returned to Moscow, Serov immediately began to adjust the cadres, and beyond everyone's expectations, he promoted Yanayev, chairman of the Soviet Central Council. Yanayev was born in 1937 and is fifty-one years old this year. Among the current Soviet Central Presidium, he is the youngest, even younger than Ryzhkov, who was promoted by Andropov.

"I have no problem with Comrade Yanayev's adjustment. Our Soviet Union is the motherland of the working class, and the treatment of workers should be the top priority." Grishin, the first secretary of the Moscow Municipal Party Committee, nodded in approval Before the first secretary of the Moscow Municipal Party Committee, he was the chairman of the Central Council of the Soviet Union, and he had certain feelings for that department.

   According to history, Sherepin should have been thrown to the Central Council of the Soviet Union by Brezhnev and then retired. Yanayev, who is now the chairman of the Central Council, also entered Serov's line of sight.

   For Yanayev, Serov has his own evaluation. He doesn't know if this person is a communist, but he is definitely a defender of national unity. After Gorbachev came to power, he attacked three groups in just a few years. The first should be the Dnipro gang of Shcherbitsky and Kunayev.

In the first round of confrontation, the strength left by Brezhnev is still there. If Tikhonov, the chairman of the Council of Ministers in the center, is more responsible, there are Ukraine's Serbitsky and Kazakhstan's Kunayev. Support, with Grishin and Romanov as foreign aid, is likely to curb Gorbachev's mischief.

   The second round was the confrontation between the Second Secretary Ligachev and Gorbachev with the support of Leninists. Gorbachev won again and basically completed the control of the entire Soviet Union. At the same time, a group of politicians like Yeltsin was brought into the very center of Soviet power.

   By the time of Yanayev, it was actually no longer a confrontation between hardliners and capitulators. The emergency committees of Yanayev, Kryuchkov, and Yazov fought hard to preserve the unity of the Soviet Union.

"At least Yanayev will not intentionally do things that are detrimental to the country. Let's make do with it." If Serov has any dissatisfaction, it may be Yanayev's indecisive side, and he should have obeyed KGB Chairman Kliu from the beginning. Chikov's suggestion, take a tough policy and kill him directly.

   As for the most powerful coup leader in history, why did he lead such an amateur coup, Serov doesn’t want to think about it, it’s too embarrassing. After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, Semichasny, who was still alive, once commented on the clumsiness of the entire process of the August 19 coup, which was completely incomparable with Brezhnev and Sherepin's operation of removing Khrushchev from power.

   "I will definitely do my best to do my job well! As a guardian of socialism, I will do sleepless work and complete the tasks assigned by the central government." Yanayev, who has entered the presidium of the Soviet Central Committee, made such an opening speech.

   "In the future, the chairman of the Central Council will work in the name of a member of the Central Presidium. It will become the norm. Our country's care for the working class must be shown in political status."

   After Yanayev finished his speech, Serov concluded and told other members of the Central Presidium that it would be a practice for the Chairman of the Soviet Central Council to enter the Soviet Central Presidium in the future. We will no longer randomly use a member of the Central Committee to do trade union work.

In the evening news, Yanayev’s own biography was officially featured on television, followed by an editorial in the Komsomolskaya Pravda, showing that the state’s interest in the lives of the working class went a step further. Attitude affirmed the importance of trade union work.

  According to this adjustment, all the republics of the Soviet Union, regional committees, municipal committees, collective farms, and enterprise groups must make adjustments, so that the leaders of the trade unions will officially enter the leadership of each region. This is a major adjustment. If Yanayev is only promoted, if the cadres in various places have not moved, it is equivalent to building a house without laying a foundation. Yanayev's own work is still not easy to carry out, and he is in an embarrassing state of no soldiers.

   It can be said that Serov's adjustment has given Yanayev greater rights than he has ever achieved in history. In the August 19 incident, Yanayev was not a leading figure, and he had reservations about the support of Kryuchkov who really proposed the coup d'etat.

  Many people think that after 1981, Gorbachev was gone, but this is actually quite a misunderstanding. If Gorbachev was really weakened, Yeltsin would not have to make such huge concessions to the republics. Nonetheless, Yanayev and others never gained these powers, they could only gain them indirectly by kidnapping Gorbachev. But Gorbachev neither agreed nor killed, and they had no power whatsoever.

   Of course, Gorbachev couldn’t believe the popular support that the Soviet Union’s decades of construction had ushered in, and directly handed the power to Yeltsin. Whether this performance was greedy for life and fear of death is another question.

   In short, from today onwards, the trade union organization of the Soviet Union will become a real unit of real power, and will no longer be politically dispensable, and will become a routine and fixed in the future.

"At any time, I can say that the socialist system is of course superior to the capitalist system. We are only a country that has been established for 60 years, and there has been no war in the Americas for more than 100 years, and the Soviet Union and the United States have no external environment. Compared with the methods, let alone the strength of the country today, even the comparison in the 1970s can prove that our system is better than that of the United States. The basic condition for a country's development is security, and only a safe environment can develop well. I've never heard of a country where there is a civil war every day in the country and it will thrive."

  This is the villa area of ​​the KGB. Today, Serov went home to rest after get off work. There is no mandatory requirement for the general secretary to live in the Kremlin. If he is unwilling to stay, he can go home after get off work. And Boris, who just returned from the Federal Republic of Germany, is also being taught.

   "That is to say, all we lack is time!" Boris put his son in his wife's arms and talked to his father about his experience in the Federal Republic of Germany. "Actually, there are many parties in Germany, and their views are similar to ours."

"Don't mention the reformists of the Second International, you should have seen a lot of people from the Middle East in the Federal Republic of Germany, right?" Serov laughed, "I know why in the field of religion, there is a saying that heretics are more annoying than pagans. Is it? This kind of party that confuses us with socialist ideas, but actually reforms, will cause more harm. The Communist Party will never let those refugees come in, but those socialist parties did so at that time. They also used diversity as an excuse, Do you know how to deal with Europeans?"

   Boris pretended to be listening, how to dig a hole and let the enemy fall by himself. He believes that there is no more professional person in the world than his father. How to break the most difficult balance, that is, the European front line where millions of troops face off, I don't know what my father can do.

"The key to our success is those socialist parties. First of all, the Middle East must be turbulent, causing the pacifist troubles that have been settled in Europe, so it is still useful to say that Saudi Arabia is still useful." Sheloff yawned and suddenly looked at his son and daughter-in-law and said, "You should have more children. A few children, our housing allocation is tied to family size."

  Cough! Boris, who was listening carefully to the lecture, suddenly coughed uncontrollably. This kind of transformation was really unbearable.
