Chapter 1329 - A Big Catch
Western countries have long hoped for such an opportunity, and when they receive a call for help from Czechoslovakia, a country that is directly aimed at the heart of Europe, it is as refreshing as getting a pillow if they want to sleep, and they will naturally respond positively, and it is very likely that they will be able to send troops for it.
They did not know that the Soviet Union was terminally ill and could fall down at any time, but they knew that the Soviet Union was in a state of anxiety at the moment, and that the Soviet Union was not lightly ill, and that they would kill him while he was sick. They have never been able to find a reason to intervene directly in the USSR, and now Czechoslovakia has not been given the best opportunity?
It is the common wish of European and American countries to try out the combat effectiveness of the Soviet army and see how the Soviet Union reacts. Only by testing the bottom line of the Soviet Union and the capabilities of the Soviet army can they take the next step.
Some people will ask, now that the Soviet Union is so bad, why didn't they directly march towards the Soviet Union? Could it be that the bad situation within the USSR was known only to China, and not to the countries of Europe and the United States?
Although China had already begun to infiltrate the Soviet Union, European and American countries had never stopped infiltrating the Soviet Union at all, and they knew much more about the Soviet Union than China.
Even if you don't infiltrate, just by looking at the news, you can know that the Warsaw Pact will be dissolved at any time, and you will also know that Lithuania and other union republics have proposed to secede from the Soviet Union one by one. How could the United States and European countries, with their powerful intelligence organizations, not see that the Soviet Union was in big trouble and in big trouble?
Now that they saw that the Soviet Union was in unprecedented trouble, why didn't they directly send troops to the Soviet Union and take advantage of the chaos to carve up the Soviet Union?
This is because the European and American countries have lingering palpitations, they do not fully believe that the Soviet Union will fall like this, and they still wonder if the Soviet Union is really incapable of solving these problems, of course. They also wanted to wait for the Soviet Union to collapse on its own before dividing up the profits, so that there would not be much risk.
If this object was not the Soviet Union, but any country, such as China, they would have rushed up to carve up and carved it up, but the Soviet Union left them too deep an impression, a few years ago it was still the world's largest military strength, meddling everywhere, invading everywhere, and ignoring the world's qiē. Even if there is a sick now, it is a sick tiger, not comparable to a cat, and no matter how healthy a cat is, I am afraid that it will not be able to withstand the paws of a sick tiger.
Although a large number of intelligence personnel in the United States and Europe collected sufficient intelligence in the Soviet Union, although the organizations and personnel of the United States and European powers studying the international situation have studied the Soviet Union really not what it used to be. But they still did not dare to act rashly, did not dare to directly send troops into the Soviet Union, the Falklands War and the Grenada War caused an indelible shadow on them, a small Argentina fought a powerful Britain all over the place, and asked the United States for help to settle the matter. Grenada, the land of projectiles, made the United States lose face, and the first army was defeated and returned from a crushing defeat, so it could only use the strength of the whole country to launch a second war. That's when Grenada was killed.
What was the USSR? Its military strength is dozens of times stronger than that of Argentina, and Grenada's military strength is less than one percent of that of the Soviet Union. Whether it is a European power or the United States, it really does not have the courage to attack the Soviet Union directly. I don't dare to lend them a dare.
But it is clearly unwilling, for them to really wait and wait for the USSR to collapse on its own. On the one hand, they were afraid that the Soviet Union would slowly resolve its contradictions, overcome difficulties, and rise again, and on the other hand, they also hoped that the Soviet Union would collapse sooner. The sooner they became weak and small countries that could not stand up to the West, so that they would be freed up to deal with the rapidly rising China, because they would certainly take advantage of Czechoslovakia's call for help, and they would certainly try their best to encourage the pro-Western forces within the Soviet Union to speed up their actions.
And once the Soviet army and the armies of European and American countries face each other in Czechoslovakia, China's opportunities for profit will increase exponentially, and the cranes and mussels will compete for the fisherman's profits.
Guo Zhuocheng wanted to understand this, and couldn't help laughing self-deprecatingly, and said in his heart: "Why do I care so much about the situation in this life being the same as in the previous life?" As soon as there is a change, I start to worry. Being reborn by oneself has already changed the world, and it is normal to change, and it is not normal not to change. Isn't it better that the current change in the situation is completely favorable to China? The Soviet Union confronted European and American countries, and China had more time and energy to consider if it carved up the interests of the Soviet Union, and we should seize our own interests while European and American countries did not dare to enter on a large scale. ”
The Soviet Union in the previous life did not send troops to suppress the rebellion, and the Soviet Union in this life weakened faster than in the previous life, but on the contrary, it sent troops, and it was precisely their own efforts that were overrewarded, because they constantly sent intelligence personnel and diplomats to bribe and instigate some high-ranking officials of the Soviet Union, and to buy some pro-China forces, so that they became agents of China, and they always spoke for China and always sought the interests of China, and it was with their help that the Soviet high-level brazenly sent troops to Czechoslovakia.
Considering that China's years of efforts in the Soviet Union have been rewarded with such huge sums, it is no wonder that the central bigwigs are happy about this. As I said just now, China's actions in Argentina and Grenada have now also paid off, that is, European and American countries know that the Soviet Union will not dare to let go, and they can only play the side ball and beat the side drum. Like in their previous lives, they could only sit back and wait for the collapse of the Soviet Union, sit back and see that Russia was still a powerful country, and finally regret it.
After the inspiration of the supreme leader, Guo Zhuocheng was full of confidence.
There were not many people who participated in the very secret meeting this time, including Guo Zhuocheng, and there were only seven or eight people together. First of all, the head of the National Security Bureau, Li Guanding, gave a briefing on the situation from the Soviet Union. He first reported on the movements of several countries of the Warsaw Pact, then on the movements of several Soviet republics, and then briefed and explained some of the decisions, policies, and actions of the top level of the CPSU.
What makes Guo Zhuocheng excited is that the people we bought actually included high-ranking officials at the central level of the Soviet Union, and there was more than one, and they were able to sit together with Gorbachev and other bigwigs to discuss the state of the country, although Ye Liqin has not really turned to China, but he is already a pro-China person, and in his heart he prefers to interact with China rather than European and American countries.
Even Gorbachev is different from his previous life, he no longer one-sided worship of Western European and American countries, no longer follows the values of Western countries as the golden rule, and he has begun to pay attention to the situation on the Chinese side in his heart.
After Li Guanding finished reporting on the relevant situation, the director of the Soviet Intelligence Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs gave a briefing on some of the situation in Outer Mongolia. It stands to reason that this director is not high enough to attend this kind of meeting, but because he is directly in charge of the return of Outer Mongolia, and this organization is under his direct management and command, and he is responsible for the implementation of the policies and actions of the central authorities towards Mongolia, and the return of Outer Mongolia is the biggest event in China at present, so he has the qualifications to attend this meeting.
According to him, except for a very small number of diehards and a very small number of people who worship the Soviet Union from the bottom of their bones and oppose the return of Outer Mongolia, ordinary people from the people to high-ranking government officials are eager for the return of Outer Mongolia, and a large number of groups and organizations are ready for the return, and even some military are ready for war to forcibly return.
Yes, the minds of the common people are very simple, whoever can make their own life good, who can bring a stable and peaceful life to their children and grandchildren, they are willing to follow. What's more, they are only returning to the motherland now, not betraying their ancestors, so what is there to be embarrassed about? It should be said that these ordinary people are justifiable.
When the director of the department happily talked about the situation in Outer Mongolia, several high-level leaders glanced at Guo Zhuocheng with satisfaction: It was Guo Zhuocheng who began to attach importance to the improvement of the border people on the Sino-Soviet border and the Sino-Mongolian border six years ago, and it was he who had long thought of using the lives of the Chinese border people to widen the gap and grade between the lives of the Chinese border people and the people outside, so as to promote the change of mentality of the other party and reduce the obstacles caused by the return. Now years of hard work have finally borne fruit, and although we are still one step away from the final success, this step will definitely be achieved with time.
Next, the central boss discussed the issue of whether to provide economic subsidies to the returning Outer Mongolian people. Because now life in Outer Mongolia is very bad, because the Soviet Union implemented a large-scale planned economy, and the allies were also included in their unified production, maybe agriculture has not yet achieved and cannot achieve great unification, but industrial products are basically unified, for example, Outer Mongolia only produces handicrafts, North Korea produces simple industrial supplies, East Germany produces precision machine tools, Czechoslovakia produces tractors, and so on, and then through the Soviet Union for product exchange and coordination.
Because of this, as soon as an allied country or an internal union republic has a lack of productivity, or a quality problem that cannot be used, the entire Soviet Union will fall into a shortage of such products produced by this allied country or internal union republic, and this allied or internal union republic will receive less supply of other goods than planned, they will produce less, and naturally obtain less, and thus fall into a vicious circle.
And because of the low production efficiency of the Soviet Union, the waste of strict zhòng, officials, and guides are not only this kind of problem exists but also very strict, and the lack of resources and talents in Outer Mongolia is the biggest victim of this system, when the Soviet Union is now almost unsustainable, a large number of ordinary people in Outer Mongolia can even be described as unclothed and hungry, they are in urgent need of external help, not only food, but also clothing and medical care.
