Big Time 1958

  On the outskirts of West Berlin, the Red Flag 214 Engineering Brigade, in company platoons, entered the predetermined location under the guidance of the garrison staff around West Berlin, smashed open the warehouse where the barbed wire was stacked, and took away the logs placed in the open air. Quietly and step-by-step into the operation, for the soldiers of the engineering brigade, paving the road in the mountains and building the bridges in the water are their own duties, and it is not a problem to complete a blockade.

   "Move forward ten meters to the range of West Berlin, and leave a distance of ten meters!" The staff officer of the War Department instructed him. As for why there was this order, he actually didn't know. This order was given by Serov. What can a barbed wire fence of less than two meters do? Even pressing the blade on it doesn't help, you can climb up by taking off your clothes and padding. The real project still needs reinforced concrete, not barbed wire that can be easily destroyed. The distance of ten meters is to leave a distance for the real wall!

More than 13,000 people from the Soviet Union and the GDR joined in along the invisible dividing line of West Berlin. The process was heated and silent, with the atmosphere of collective action and the prudence of covert action. In this strange environment of conflict, a blockade around the entire West Berlin is slowly forming. This blockade made of barbed wire is not strong, and its role is only to prevent the flow of people.

At midnight, Serov, who was sitting at the Stasi headquarters, received one call after another. The barbed wire fences in the northern suburbs, western suburbs and southern suburbs had been established. After checking the time, the local time in Berlin was 1:30. Serov yawned, " The blockade of the suburbs has been built, and the rest is up to you. We Soviets better not go into battle in person, in case any West Berliner who is not sleeping sees us!"

   "Don't worry, I've made arrangements!" Marcus Wolf also knew that it was a big deal, so he grabbed the phone on the table, "The internal affairs troops are dispatched, and the operation will be carried out according to the original plan!"

"General Serov, thank you for helping the GDR personnel to flee. It's very late, why don't you rest here!" For today, Marcus Wolfe has been preparing for a long time, and the GDR already knew about the personnel The loss of the flight, I was still waiting for an opportunity to act like today, but I didn't expect Serov to airborne in Berlin to make the day come so quickly.

  Who helped you stop the people from fleeing? What Serov hates the most are rumormongers. The Berlin Wall he planned is not the same as the historical Berlin Wall. This is not just a matter of increased engineering volume and cost. The most important thing is that the purpose is different. The Berlin Wall in history is indeed the GDR to prevent people from escaping, and Serov's Berlin Wall, he is afraid of people running out, not afraid of people going in.

   And it's time to shirk a wave of responsibilities. For tomorrow's wording, Serov has basically had a draft in his mind. The blockade has been established, and today's task has been completed. Let Marcus Wolfe make arrangements, he's staying here today. It's better not to go back and make trouble for the two women so late.

Overnight, a blockade of more than 100 kilometers of barbed wire suddenly appeared. When people in Berlin woke up from their sleep in the early morning, they found that the city had been divided into two parts. Before noon, the news had already spread. After traveling all over the city of Berlin, people in West Berlin suddenly found that they were surrounded by barbed wire with a length of more than 100 kilometers overnight, as if they were in a huge prison.

Around the barbed wire fence, soldiers of the People's Army of the GDR stood everywhere. People wanted to ask, but they didn't dare, and it was useless to ask. These soldiers of the People's Army were only dispatched to patrol, and the establishment of the blockade was the job of the internal affairs troops.

"Hey, Kolomna Electric Factory? Comrade Badaev? Well! It's me, I'm Serov!" Serov took the phone and said, "The high-power searchlight I want should be finished, okay, please, please. It didn’t delay your production tasks, did you come up with that kind of lamp that glows red after power-on? At least it’s about the same shape as the drawing I gave you, don’t worry about other things, Comrade Badaev, goodbye…”

  There were still some problems with the telephone lines in the 1950s. It took half an hour from the operator to connect the phone to the actual call, and the call was only two minutes.

Serov, who put down the phone, smirked twice. High-power searchlights are often seen during wartime, especially in the face of enemy air raids at night, and played a role in guiding the air defense forces. In fact, the factories that are still producing high-power searchlights are no longer there. More, after all, the fighter jets are getting faster and higher, and this kind of searchlight can no longer keep up with the rhythm. As for the lamps that emit red light, they are used to frighten them at night. In the dark, red is the most eye-catching and represents danger! The appearance is made according to the infrared monitor. The cost of manufacturing a real infrared monitor is too high, so just use a similar lamp to make do with it.

   In terms of fraud, black-hearted capitalists can only rank second, and the first-ranked department is the intelligence department of each country, but the black-hearted capitalist fraud is for the pursuit of profit, while the intelligence department fraud is for strategic deception.

The establishment of the    blockade caused an uproar, and the news from West Berlin made the United States, Britain and France very angry. Regarding the sudden appearance of the blockade, the countries began to discuss countermeasures and prepared to put pressure on the Soviet Union with a unified voice.

   Then can I give you a chance! Serov, wearing a lieutenant general's uniform that he hadn't seen for a long time, appeared in the city hall of East Berlin, which immediately caused a commotion among many reporters who came through the passage of the blockade after applying for it.

   "General Serov, did this apparently hostile behavior of the Soviet Union benefit from the general secretary of the Soviet Union?" This is a British journalist who is watching the fun.

   "General Serov, is the Soviet Union trying to force the United States into submission by establishing a blockade? Do you think it is useful?" This is a reporter from the United States, the world's most vocal king.

For these obviously hostile and aggressive questions, Serov didn't even move his eyelids, which was all expected, "The establishment of the blockade is the GDR's own actions!" Serov would never admit that it was himself. What it did, in fact, it was not wrong. The GDR was already prepared to act on its own. "Our Soviet Union has handed over all the rights that a country should have, including the status of West Berlin, to the GDR. In my personal opinion, this There is no problem at all, the border between the two countries is guarded by barbed wire, which is not a very rare thing!"

   shirk his responsibilities completely, Serov said refreshingly, "You can apply to your newspaper to add an office in the capital Berlin, and it may not be so easy to come here in the future!"

   This is just the beginning, in a few months, you will know exactly what kind of virtue West Berlin will become…
