Moscow. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Although it has just entered October, the temperature in Moscow has begun to cool, and people on the streets are wearing woolen coats.
In the Kremlin, the atmosphere is also beginning to become lively and tense, and next month, it will be time for another October military parade.
"General Secretary, good news!" A meeting of the top leaders of the Soviets was underway, and news had just been received that the commander-in-chief of the Air Defense Forces, Marshal Pavel Feodorovich Batitsky, suddenly had a spring breeze on his face and came in and said: "General Secretary, the 513 regiment of our Far Eastern Military District has shot down the American Blackbird reconnaissance plane!" ”
Blackbird reconnaissance aircraft! Recently, they have been conducting reconnaissance in the Far East of the Soviet Union, and the Soviet Territorial Defense Forces have been disgraced and have failed repeatedly, and as a result, the general secretary has become angry and has given a death order to the Territorial Defense Forces.
Now, having finally shot down a Blackbird, the Territorial Defense Forces have heroically completed the task and given the USSR a long face!
Hearing the news, Andropov, who had a scholarly temperament, did not speak on the side, but just pushed his glasses and looked at Brezhnev in front of him.
The flesh on Brezhnev's face shook a few times, and he said excitedly: "Good! Well done! Which pilot shot it down? ”
"It was Andrei Vladimirvich Tolstoy, the deputy commander of the 513 regiment, the same Far Eastern pilot who was awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union last time." Marshal Batitsky said: "He is really the pride of our Soviet servicemen, who used a cannon to shoot down the Blackbird after a failed missile attack. So heroic, he can be awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union one more time! ”
This shooting down of the blackbird is almost a gift to the upcoming anniversary of the October Revolution! This merit, supposedly, is enough to deserve the title of Hero of the Soviet Union once, but it has not been a few days since the last award, and it seems that it is a little too frequent to be awarded again, as if the title of Hero of the Soviet Union is not very valuable. Brezhnev thought for a moment and said: "In this way, first transfer him to Moscow to participate in our military parade of the October Revolution!" In the stands, leave a place for him. ”
Hearing this, Andropov's heart felt a little accelerated, and he really didn't misunderstand this young man! Even without his own help, this lad is so good! It is definitely worth it to exchange the title of Hero of the Soviet Union for a place in the stands! This is very beneficial to Andre's subsequent development!
Andropov looked at Andrei, some fathers-in-law looked at the taste of his son-in-law, how pleasing to the eye, especially Andropov also felt that Andrei had the same ambition as himself! The domestic crisis is becoming more and more severe, and the country has reached a critical time for reform! It's a pity that I don't have enough power yet!
Although at the military parade of the October Revolution, the stands were full of big figures with heads and faces, military marshals and the like, but a small number of places were also set aside for some people whose status was not high, but who had commemorative significance and major contributions, such as representatives of World War II veterans, such as famous domestic writers, engineers, and the like.
The KGB agencies in the Far East reported to Andropov about the inventory of warehouses at the Sokolovka base, and in recent years, almost all warehouses everywhere have been bored, but they are all in a chain of interests, and almost all the directors have turned a blind eye and turned a blind eye. André, on the other hand, broke the silence! This made Andropov even more appreciative of Andrei.
Now, on the land of the USSR, where is there no problem? It's just that no one wants to pursue it! André, on the other hand, began to launch his own blow to this rigid system and to the parasites who exploited the loopholes of the system!
Andropov, is fully supported!
Sokolovka base.
Andrei did not know that he had been taken seriously by the head of the Red Empire, Brezhnev, and did not know that he would wear a medal and stand in the stands of Red Square, although it was only the most inconspicuous corner, Andrei only knew that he had dug up a moth parasitic in the base of Sokolovka!
"MiG-25 main tires, thirty-two missing, starting power supply, two missing, repair tools, six sets missing, backup engines, precious metals missing...... "After three days of comparison, all the results finally came out, and everyone in the base, including the pilots who did not have combat readiness on duty, Andrei and Ivanov and others, were listening to the results of the investigation of the KGB personnel.
"In total, 238 pieces of material were lost and damaged, which is converted into a cost, which is about three million rubles." The tone of the KGB personnel was still so cold that all the personnel were stunned.
More than three million rubles were lost! In the Soviets, this was a huge number, almost enough to re-equip a MiG-25! You know, the ruble is now worth more than the dollar.
Of course, this level of loss cannot be solved by itself within the base, and must be borne by the KGB personnel! This is already a major case of loss of state property!
"I hope that whoever moves these things can take the initiative to stand up and take responsibility, I believe that the comrades of our National Security Committee will thoroughly investigate this matter, and now confess, the base can still protect you, make mistakes, as long as you are brave enough to admit it, you are still a good comrade, if you do not take the initiative to admit it, when the comrades of the National Security Committee find out, the consequences will be serious." Andre looked at these people, his words were not high, but they made everyone frightened.
"Report, I took two bottles of methanol for flights in the warehouse and drank them with water." At this moment, one of the flight attendants raised his hand and took the initiative to admit his mistake.
Stealing the methanol used in the plane and drinking it with water as wine has been done by many people in the base, and for a people who are addicted to alcohol, this is not a big deal, and it can be passed by writing a review.
"Report, I took two starter batteries for the ground truck, went to the town outside and sold them to a car driver for fifty roubles, and I am willing to hand over the money." Another ground crew said.
The first to admit mistakes is not serious, but this is a good start!
"Who else?" Andrei asked the machine attendant below, a guy like Akim is really the master who doesn't shed tears when he doesn't see the coffin.
"Comrade Joseph, please assist us in cracking this criminal case of illegal embezzlement of state property." Andrei said to the KGB personnel sitting on the side.
The amount is huge, and this is a serious criminal case!
Hearing Andrei's words, KGB Lieutenant Joseph, who was sitting on the side, stood up and said: "Comrade Akim, please go back with us to investigate." ”
Myself? Akeem was stunned for a moment: "Why me?" ”
"Because a lot of people in the town outside know you and buy the things that come out of your hands, and the bar owner in the town knows you, and you're a regular there." Joseph said, "Now, please go back with us and investigate!" ”
Akim's face changed suddenly, and he realized that the KGB had two people, one was investigating inside the base, and the other was already investigating outside! Those people are witnesses, and they steal the things in the warehouse and sell them for money, which cannot be denied!
