The first one is left for the evening

When Yanayev heard about the change of director of the CIA, the first thing that came to his mind was that the United States would remove an inactive director of the CIA, so why should a spy succeed in serving as the director of the intelligence bureau? James? Woolsey is the quintessential theoretical figure who knows where to go, but doesn't know how. And his short career as director of the CIA is a good proof of this.

"James? Woolsey's two biggest mistakes were underestimating the threat posed to the U.S. military by the U.S. forces when it sent troops to Somalia, and never getting information about the Mogadishu warlord Aideed, which led to the U.S. military paying a terrible price in Somalia, which triggered the first crisis of his career as a CIA director. And the second thing is the Amus espionage case. Ames, the head of the CIA's Soviet East European Division, was instigated by our intelligence agents to provide us with 55 CIA overseas operations, betrayed 34 spies, and provided a wealth of top-secret information. Yanayev thought carefully about these two things, which could be said to be devastating blows to Woolsey, and was ready to give Woolsey two big gifts.

"These two gifts are enough to make Woolsey ruin her political career, but of course, how will President Mario end up then?" Yanayev said to himself with amusement.

At the same time, the CIA director began to realign the intelligence agency's strategy after taking office, and CIA Director Woolsey convened his first meeting of major directors and regional heads. Although there are not many people in the office, everyone here is a heavyweight in the intelligence community.

Similarly, because Clinton did not come to power, Woolsey's intelligence collection work did not deliberately collect economic intelligence on overseas countries. Rather, it is a continuation of the Cold War mentality. Against the USSR. Against the socialist-state state.

"What Director Gates has made before has to change. It is not that his approach is wrong, but that he chose an unreasonable phalanx policy in the wrong place at the wrong time. As a result, his Soviet policy was repeatedly attacked. Woolsey came up and denied what Gates had done before, after all, he needed to prove the superiority of his theory in a very different way.

"Director Gates chose to work directly with the Soviet Union face to face, from peaceful to harassing and unrest, and did achieve certain achievements, such as the transformation of the Eastern European member states. Of course, before 1991, I admit that these policies were useful. But after 1991, when this man came to power, everything changed. ”

In the gloomy office, only the light of the projector flickered, the slides moved to the next one, and Yanayev's head appeared on the screen, attracting everyone's attention. The officers of the intelligence service who dealt with the Soviets were so impressed by this face that they were eager to have him torn to pieces. Because of Yanayev's appearance, there were a series of major setbacks for the CIA, which had been smooth sailing until 1991.

And they have reason to believe that in this series of setbacks, there is an implicit means of this man to turn the clouds and rain. And when they gathered intelligence about Yanayev. The CIA was surprised to find that all his past files had been destroyed, and he was like a man with no past at all. It was as if his life began in 1990 and not in 1937.

The C.I.A. called the Soviet leader a mysterious red ghost, which they said was the most inscrutable of the CPSU leaders.

"Now under Yanayev's leadership, it has become impossible to sanction the Soviet Union through direct external means, so we need to change the strategy of the Lower Gates Director to use another way." Woolsey pointed to Yanayev's portrait with the pen in his hand, and said slowly, "Our policy is summarized into two categories, one is against Yanayev, the intelligence bureau must find all the detailed information about Yanayev no matter what the cost, and I even need to know the rules of his life." ”

"We've tried before, but it's too difficult." Someone complained to Woolsey, "He's like a wandering ghost, we have no way of getting his exact information, and there's hardly any useful information other than knowing that he smokes and that mediocre face, and he's like a pure-hearted puritan, not even a mistress." ”

"The Intelligence Bureau is supposed to be a place to collect information on work, and if you can't do that, what use do I want you." Woolsey retorted to everyone present.

"Listen, I don't care how difficult your intelligence work is, no matter how mysterious this guy is in the picture, even if his file is on Mars, you have to take a spaceship to get it back, understand?"

"Understood." The reprimanded intelligence chief nodded.

"The next point is also the most important point of intelligence, that is, about the process of democratization of Eastern European countries, Czechoslovakia is still struggling to breathe, Ames, as the head of the Eastern European Intelligence Service, I hope to increase the intensity of infiltration, so that all Eastern Europe can become democratic and liberal countries, so that we can better build an Eastern European fence between Western Europe and the Soviet Union, and lock the pace of communist infiltration."

"I will." Ames nodded.

"Yes, you have to do it." Woolsey was a little dissatisfied with Ames's answer, and he reprimanded the head of Eastern European intelligence, which made the other party a little embarrassed.

"I hope everyone will prick up their ears and listen to what I'm going to talk about next." Woolsey deliberately raised the volume, and everyone sat up straight, waiting for the new director of intelligence to speak.

"The mistake of our intelligence was that we were too confident that the current Soviet Union could be subverted by the power of the CIA, the Vantaa incident, the Baltic secession incident, the Tbilisi riots, the Chechen incident, and so on. We still measure the current Soviet Union with the thinking of 1989, but unfortunately, everyone is mistaken. The Soviets have now recreated an iron curtain for themselves, insulating them from all CIA infiltration attacks. Our previous methods are gradually failing. ”

"So it's time for a change. The previous direct offensive strategy was reorganized into an indirect support agent, completely isolating the Soviet Union from Eastern Europe. No allies, no support, then slowly wait for them to break up from within, and then crush them with a direct line of attack. ”

"The closest to the Soviet Union is China, and Director Gates has been doing stupid things, and his policy towards China has led the latter to move closer to the Soviet Union. Everyone saw that when the Soviet economy was in a downturn, it wanted to pull China as an ally to deal with the United States. What we need to do is to change this situation and make China an ally of the United States again, even if it chooses neutrality, which is much better than the current situation. ”

Woolsey's biggest concern about China's fall to the Soviet Union was that he didn't know why the congressional idiots would abandon it as a heavyweight pawn. But the CIA is different, as long as they can serve the country's policies, even if the ******** is different, they can be regarded as CIA trading partners.

"The second thing is the intelligence gathering on Afghanistan, as a long nail embedded in the Soviet Union in Central Asia, we must make good use of this country and cultivate enough pro-American and anti-Soviet jihadists internally." Woolsey emphasized again, "But thank God, don't raise white-eyed wolves anymore." ”

Now that Laden and the West are at odds with each other, the CIA has a hunch that they will no longer be able to control this eagle dog. That's why Woolsey emphasized that we must no longer cultivate guys who are not conducive to the CIA's operations, but must have closely integrated interests and loyal agents.

"Guys, it's going to be a long and arduous process, and I hope everyone is prepared." Woolsey looked around and said in a low voice. (To be continued.) )
