As long as Indonesia continues to advance, Australia will not be able to endure it sooner or later, mainly because this is only the first day. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Timor Island is not big or small, and it is basically impossible for the Indonesian army to occupy the whole island in one day. And the garrison of native Australians was in the eastern part of East Timor, but just like that, three days was enough.

"Is three days enough time for a country to respond quickly? If it is a socialist country, this time is enough to gather troops to fight back, but if it is a capitalist country, it cannot be judged. At least whether Timor-Leste is worthy of military action by Australia will take a short time to assess. "We know that Indonesia's population is more than six times that of Australia, and that Australia cannot compete with Indonesia in terms of manpower, because the competition between a small island actually outweighs the loss, and the dispute between the two countries cannot be resolved by one island of Timor, and there is a larger New Guinea." ”

Whether or not to repel the Indonesians from New Guinea or domestic forces needs to be discussed. Another question that arises will arise: is the island of Timor worth it, and will there be problems in New Guinea if the troops are deployed? These questions have to be considered, the real world is not a game after all.

"General Secretary, then we have to wait now?" Because of his relationship with the KGB, Chebrikov has always spoken in front of Serov, and he often asks questions that others can't ask.

"Wait? Waiting is also divided into how to wait. Let the Ministry of Defense send a message to the Pacific Fleet, ready to do everything at any time. Serov thought for a moment and replied, then said, "Now let's talk about the next question." We can't just focus all our energies abroad, we also have our own problems to solve, which have already begun to emerge, at least in the socialist camp. We only take care of ourselves, so we must take precautions in advance to avoid this problem in the USSR in the future! ”

Ligachev, Grischen, and Romanov were all nervous, the general secretary rarely spoke in this tone, and everyone else looked at each other and didn't know what problems made the general secretary vigilant? Could it be that someone has already made the general secretary distrustful? Although the Soviet Union is now much more peaceful, it is very possible for the Soviet Union and the socialist countries of Eastern Europe to make a movement that will prevent a group of people from turning over forever.

"One of the not-so-good phenomena in Romania and in some of our allies is that these countries have chosen their children as their successors, and I mention Romania because this is the most obvious case in Romania. Ceausescu is the general secretary, his wife is the deputy prime minister, and his son is the secretary of the provincial party committee. The whole of Romania knew that Ceausescu's son was the reserve force of the future General Secretary. Serov shook his head with such a meaningful expression and said, "Yes, I didn't imagine the succession of father and son, even my wife is the deputy prime minister, and I saw it for the first time then." ”

Ceausescu concurrently held all the highest party and government positions, including General Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Romania, President of the Republic, Chairman of the National Defense Committee and Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces, and Chairman of the Supreme Council for Economic and Social Development. It is not impossible for Ceausescu himself to combine the power of the party, the government, and the army. The General Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union also had great powers, and at the same time the Chairman of the Supreme Soviet and the Chairman of the State Defense Committee, was equally with absolute authority.

But at least the chairman of the Council of Ministers of the USSR, after stipulating that the chairman of the Council of Ministers and the general secretary should not be concurrently held, no one dared to violate this provision. Ceausescu's wife, Elena, was in charge of the Romanian party. In the government, two of Ceausescu's younger brothers also held positions in the ROP army, one held important posts in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the other was the deputy minister of defense, and his youngest son Niku also became an alternate member of the ROP Central Executive Committee, equivalent to an alternate member of the Presidium of the Central Committee of the USSR.

Serov didn't dare to do this, and the big spy thought that he was bold enough, and he didn't dare to think that his son would be the general secretary. At most, it was only a thought of making the KGB part of the Comintern, as an instrument of the theory of international dictatorship.

"It's really a bit unusual, do you want us to put pressure on Romania through the Comintern?" Second Secretary Ligachev was also annoyed at the thought of this question, and it just so happened that Romania had always been disobedient and knocked on Ceausescu by the way.

"Just mind our own affairs and don't let the Soviet Union become like this." Serov shook his head and vetoed, "It's entirely up to us to clean up Ceausescu, but I don't want to ruin decades of Romanian construction." Therefore, violent means should be excluded and should not be taken into account. ”

"Until the end, we still have to keep a little warmth. Now there are only some problems in Romania, and it is not to turn away from the USSR! Grischen nodded in agreement, "Actually, it's not a big problem. ”

The Romanian security system was established single-handedly when Sakhatowsky was the general adviser, and Serov certainly had the means to reach into Romania, in fact, the reason why Romania caused chaos in the whole country in history is related to the fact that the Soviet Union has always retained this kind of power, and even the Romanian People's Army has been influenced by the Soviet Union to some extent. Truly loyal to Ceausescu were the Romanian Internal Affairs Troops.

When discussing the Romanian question, these members of the Presidium of the Central Committee of the USSR were like moral saints, as if the trend towards hereditization in other countries did not exist in the USSR. Of course, this is impossible, but the place where it exists is different, and the stability of the Soviet cadre class for such a long time has caused different results at the local and central levels. Local cadres are bolder, while central cadres are less courageous. There has been a father-son succession in the locality, but not in Moscow, because these old people have not yet died, and Serov found out for the first time that this group of old people occupy the pit and do not on the good side.

However, as Grischen said, he did not think that the problem was too big because his eyes were only in the central organs of the Soviet Union, and in fact the local state committees also had this tendency.

"It's okay with Romania, it's okay with any country, but we can't. We are the first socialist country, and we must not have such a trend, otherwise the Americans will have an excuse to attack us. Serov drooped his eyelids and said, "I won't say much about the foreign side in the next few years, and on the domestic side, in the future, the general secretary, the chairman of the Supreme Soviet and the chairman of the Council of Ministers cannot be concurrently held by one person, you should have no opinion on this, right?" ”

"General Secretary, you will lead us to the final victory, don't say that." Tsvigon and Chebrikov hurriedly stopped it, which can also be said to be a statement of support.

"Shut up!" Serov unceremoniously stopped a few supporters and said, "Do you think I said this on purpose, to see who supports me and who doesn't?" When the time comes, will you find an opportunity to replace the disobedient cadres? ”

Tsvigon, Chebrikov, and a few of them, as if they were going to kneel and lick, did not understand. Far from being positive, the statements of the two men will remind you of Stalin's retreat and test the level of support he received in the Soviet Union. This can already be seen by the great change in the expressions on the faces of the other members of the Presidium of the Central Committee.

After the harsh criticism, Serov, whose train of thought was interrupted, took a moment to reorganize the language and said, "General Secretary Stalin: the son of a shoemaker, Comrade Molotov: the family of the clerk." First Secretary Khrushchev: son of a poor Ukrainian peasant. Bulganin: Ordinary staff family. Comrade Kaganovich: After dropping out of school due to poverty, he became a shoemaker. Comrade Mikoyan: The carpenter's son. Comrade Tikhonov: Workers' family. General Secretary Brezhnev: son of a metallurgical worker. Comrade Kosygin: Leningrad workers. General Secretary Andropov: the son of a railway worker. Comrade Chernenko: son of a Siberian peasant. ”

"As for me as everyone knows, I was born in the Caucasus, and my parents were both killed in the battle of Kyiv, there is nothing to say about it!" At this time, Serov found out that it seemed that the background of this body was quite miserable, and he could participate in some variety shows such as China's miserable king.

"As the proletarian motherland, it is not that the children of our leaders cannot continue to hold leading positions, because these children have been nurtured since childhood and are extremely familiar with the operation of the whole country. Inherently dominant. However, the top leadership is still not suitable for the children of cadres to hold positions. Speaking of this, Serov listened for a moment and said, "Therefore, in the future leadership of the Soviet Union, in addition to the general secretary who is also the chairman of the defense committee, the chairman of the Council of Ministers and the chairman of the Supreme Soviet cannot be concurrently." The children of leaders are also not suitable for nomination to the presidium of the Central Committee, the highest body of power. ”

"We do it ourselves, and when we do, no country can find fault with it, and then we will be qualified to influence other countries to introduce the same system to curb this kind of thing, understand?" Serov pointed to himself, "My children, if they have a talent for politics, should not be in the position we are in now." ”

There was no response in the conference room for a long time, which made Serov very uncomfortable, and there should be a response, right? When these words came out, even he felt that he was great, why didn't others react at all?

Tikhonov, who was already eighty-four years old, was the first to react, and seemed to be very moved and said, "General Secretary, in fact, I have always been worried about you in my heart, but today this worry has disappeared, and you have no selfish intentions. ”

What a delusion! Serov's selfishness was on the side of the Comintern, but since Tikhonov had said this, he accepted it calmly, and under Tikhonov's leadership, the entire Presidium of the Central Committee applauded the General Secretary's speech. The advocacy of Tikhonov is easy to understand, he does not have children.
