Big Time 1958

The daily salary is stuck at a certain limit, which is enough for a single person to live on the minimum guarantee for two days. I believe that it is not difficult for Maozi scientists who are proficient in mathematics. Of course, starvation is not possible, unless he chooses to take the initiative. starve.

"Our General Administration of Military Administration is now supervising the Ministry of Defense's reform of the Red Army's establishment. There is nothing else to do!" Roman, the director of the Third General Administration, began to introduce the situation in this regard. Since the Cuban missile crisis, the disarmament voice of the Central Presidium has been He disappeared, and the first secretary, Khrushchev, often appeared in the army. Through this confrontation, Khrushchev basically only used relaxation as a means, and would not execute it sincerely. This kind of mentality is the same as in the Brezhnev period. If you can deceive the Americans, you can deceive the Americans. The relaxation is limited to slogans.

The reform presided over by the Ministry of Defense has nothing to do with disarmament. Through the introduction of Director Roman, it is the Ministry of Defense's reorganization of the Soviet Union's army. The purpose of this reorganization is to put more than 170 nominal tank divisions. Reorganized and adapted into an assault group dominated by motorized infantry divisions. At the same time, the existence of pure infantry divisions is basically eliminated. After the reorganization, the Soviet Red Army will no longer have units dominated by light infantry. It is a meaningful moment for the mechanization of the entire Soviet army. In fact, the Red Army of the Soviet Union can already call itself the mechanization of the entire army. This time, it is just to eliminate the color of the last point.

   This time, it involves the reorganization of the four major groups stationed in Eastern Europe and all military regions in China. The infantry division is reorganized into a motorized infantry division, and some troops with the tank division brand are reduced. It seems as if it is releasing a relaxation message. In fact, this is not the case at all. A Soviet tank division has about 320 tanks, a motorized infantry division has a separate assault tank regiment, and a motorized infantry division has about 280 tanks. . The number of tanks in a motorized infantry division is 40 less than that of a tank division. It is not the general sense that a motorized infantry division has very little armored strength.

   "What the Ministry of Defense conveyed is that there will be about fifty tank divisions and one hundred and fifty motorized infantry divisions in the end!" Roman finally shared this information with his comrades.

"Is it reorganizing or expanding the army?" Shelov looked at his colleagues and said with a very attitude, "Once this reorganization is completed, the army will need at least 50,000 front-line tanks to support the army's attack. arrow!"

In fact, Serov is not very unfamiliar with an army of this size. This is the armament force of the Soviet Union at its peak ten years later. Fifty tank divisions and 150 motorized infantry divisions have formed the most shocking force in history. Steel torrent.

   But it seems to be a little bit more. After thinking about it, Serov asked, "Who made the plan for this reorganization?"

   "It's the vice-chairman of the Council of Ministers, Comrade Ustinov!" Semichasny answered this question for Roman, and Serov nodded knowingly. It turned out to be him, so it's not surprising at all.

   Ustinov spent his whole life building what he believed to be the world's strongest armed force. He did it when he was the Soviet Minister of Defense. The Soviet armed forces reached their peak in his hands.

   Serov wanted to oppose, but could not find an excuse to oppose it, which was not within his powers. This reorganization plan must have something to do with the Cuban Missile Crisis. Although the final result was more than in history, the impact on the Soviet Union was the same as in history. Because not getting all the things it wanted, the Soviet military began to go crazy . The same is true for the Red Navy, and the construction of the Moscow-class helicopter carrier has also begun to accelerate suddenly.

"Then remind Comrade Ustinov to think about the funding issue. Let's not talk about other things! Next question!" Serov waved his hand. Row.

   Recently, the United States has been looking for the Soviet Union to restrain the nuclear arms race, which may be related to the billion-ton conceptual nuclear bomb discovered at the last moment during the Cuban Missile Crisis. But why doesn't the United States show its sincerity and cut its naval power? It's nothing more than that that thing has made the Americans feel threatened, so they want to discuss with the Soviets about controlling nuclear weapons.

   If there is sincerity, the United States can reduce the number of its own 30,000 nuclear bombs! Always want to run to the Soviet Union to come empty-glove white wolf.

"I have a question, is it about the border, or is it a dispute between us and our Chinese comrades. This matter gives me a lot of headaches!" Zaryanov, the head of the General Administration of Border Guard, raised the dispute over the demarcation of the border, This negotiation has been going on for several years, and Zelyanov himself has been the negotiator on several occasions.

"Originally we could have returned it to them, but now we can't. China is scolding us every day. If we return the island to China at this time, the impact will be unpredictable. Will it affect the image of our country? Damage?" Semichasny tapped on the table, his eyes swept around everyone, and finally stayed on Serov for a little longer, and then said, "I don't know about Comrade Zelyanov, everyone. Do you have any suggestions?"

   "Go on, the Chinese side won't calm down, this matter has nothing to talk about, but you have to show an attitude that you can talk about, don't talk about it, next question!" Shelov said directly.

   With the current relationship between the two countries, this matter cannot be resolved at all, and Serov did not dare to intervene. He could not think of a reason why the Soviet Union would take the initiative to make concessions when it was scolded every day. Concession in this case, the person who makes concessions may be charged with treason, and no one can stand it except Khrushchev and Brezhnev.

  The Soviet Union returned that small island, and even if Serov worked hard, China had to wait until after the 1970s, when China was in a state of calm. Moreover, if it does not cause a domestic rebound in the Soviet Union, it is necessary to transfer the contradiction to Turkey.

"I remember that at the beginning of 1963, Turkey expelled the last group of Greek-speaking people in the country, a total of 18,000 people. I hope you will die on time!" Serov, listening to other comrades discussing, hoped that Turkey would hurry up fever.

   The Soviet Union could not take advantage of this opportunity, because the United States has not withdrawn the missiles, and the Soviet Union still needs time to build an army. Fortunately, Turkey did not die once, and there was a second time in the 1970s. Use the first time to prepare for public opinion and wait for the second opportunity, the Soviet Union will be able to open up the passage to the Mediterranean Sea.

  The geographical location of the Soviet Union is both an advantage and a disadvantage. The disadvantage is reflected in the cold climate, agriculture has little potential for tossing, and it is not suitable for industrialization. The advantage, however, was that the Soviet Union was relatively close to any key region, and could use its geographic advantage to offset U.S. strategic projection. Of course, you still have to develop your own strength. If you don't have strength, you can't get close. On the contrary, you will be threatened because you are too close.

There is also the question of Shevalev, Director of Electronics of the Eighth General Administration. First of all, he reported the problem of computer networking in Berlin. The functions of computers in the 1960s were not strong enough that the human brain could completely defeat computers. . But Shevalev's success in networking in Berlin is still significant, and the significance lies in national security.

Seeing some colleagues who didn't catch a cold, Serov said very excitedly, "You know, comrades, the use of computers for data collection is the focus of our future work. At any time, the world is dominated by ordinary people. Ordinary people need various conveniences, and our security cadres must give them such conveniences, and then carry out our work with the conveniences provided on this basis.”

"First of all, we need to establish a network in the capitals of all the Warsaw Pact countries. Bugra, Warsaw, Budapest, etc. should do the same. When the technical conditions can support it, the second step will cover the network of small and medium-sized cities in these countries!" Shelov said The finger pointed out, "Some people pretend to be in public, but in private they are different. We will use the Internet to create such a platform, so that these people have a false sense of security and tell the truth. This also involves When it comes to data collection, the wider the popularization of computers, it will actually help us in our work. Everything has two sides, comrades, we must grasp the good side..."

At an appropriate time, Serov will leak this kind of monitoring. This must be after the Soviet Union has completed the work in this area, and the United States has not done so. This may ease the pace of the United States' work in this area. This premise must be The Soviet Union moved faster than the United States.

"Comrade Serov's suggestion is very reasonable. Comrade Shevalev's work is a new thing, so now we will start to cultivate talents in this field, and the universities that cooperate with us should cultivate talents in this field now. Talents." Xie Michasne concluded, "Come out a resolution, let the colleges and universities adjust their admissions majors to cooperate with our work!"

   When I came back to participate in the National Security Conference this time, I had to discuss a number of issues related to national security, including social security and ethnic issues, religious issues, and the work of the KGB itself was to solve these threats to the Soviet Union. Not only to solve, but also to solve quickly.

   For example, in an incident in Minsk, Director Serdyuko talked for a long time, but Serov took a while to understand what he meant, medical trouble? Did this happen in the Soviet Union? "Is there a forensic certificate? Have you checked, is the hospital responsible for the accident? If it is unreasonable, let the General Administration of Internal Affairs of Minsk pay attention to this issue. You must know that there are many ways to deal with it. Once a precedent is set, the entire Soviet Union will The law enforcement officers of this country will pay the price for this precedent, and making compromises when there is no problem is itself a harm to the country."
