The front page of the Soviet Pravda reported, "Intelligence chief appointed commander-in-chief of NATO allied forces in Europe". Introduced in detail Stansfield-Turner's resume, as well as the influence he will bring to the Soviet Union when he assumes this position. The top Soviet leaders immediately convened an emergency meeting to discuss countermeasures.

During the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union, the service of any military equipment and the mobilization of any senior general would affect the nerves of the other party. Stansfield-Turner, the former director of the CIA, is now the Allied Commander-in-Chief of NATO Europe. Whether this will break the strategic balance and what changes will be brought to the international landscape, no one knows.

Andropov endured the pain and appeared at the meeting. This made the top leaders of the Soviet Union aware of his attention. After all, the top leader has not come forward for a long time. Many affairs have been handed over to Chernenko, which shows that the next generation of leaders, the Soviet Union, has been determined.

Andropov looked at the Soviet leadership next to him, feeling a little sad. In the Brezhnev era, the life-long system of leading cadres was restored, making the average age of the decision-makers of the CPSU Central Committee more than 70 years old at this time, typical of old age politics.

But Andropov had no choice, even as the supreme leader of the Soviet Union, he had his own helplessness. He was worried about going the same way as Khrushchev, and it would be difficult to think of a peaceful death like that.

Among the Soviet leaders, Khrushchev is the most legendary man, and when the sculptor carved his tombstone after his death, he deliberately spliced two black and white stones together. Inscribed on the tombstone: "The strengths and weaknesses of his life are like the combination of black and white".

Khrushchev was also a leader with a great spirit of reform. In the official history of the Soviet Union, Khrushchev was forced to step down because his reforms were not in line with public opinion. In fact, on the contrary, Khrushchev's reforms are all beneficial to the Soviet people, and the Soviet people have no right to let Khrushchev step down. There is no doubt that Khrushchev touched the interests of the Soviet bureaucracy.

After Khrushchev came to power, he made great adjustments to the official tenure system, abolished the Soviet Union's tenure system for cadres, and adopted the method of cadre rotation. This was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for Soviet officials. Khrushchev announced that 70% of the Soviet officials would be assessed and replaced. So the senior cadres of the Soviet Union united against Khrushchev, claiming: Khrushchev is stealing the fruits of the Soviet people's labor, Khrushchev must be ousted from power, and the Soviet Union must be saved!

In October 1964, while Khrushchev was on vacation, senior cadres lobbied Khrushchev's secretary, Brezhnev, to lure Khrushchev back. When Khrushchev came back, all he saw was accusations from a group of people, who questioned Khrushchev: "Why do you want to do this? You keep saying that it is for the Soviet people, but what good will you do to the Soviet people?" In the face of "forced palace", Xiaofu had to choose to retire voluntarily, and he was still under strict surveillance after retirement. Seven years later, Khrushchev sadly passed away.

After Brezhnev came to power, he aggressively built official sanatoriums and further improved the official life-long system and various welfare systems.

Andropov was also a very reformed figure, possibly if his body allowed it. Knowing that the deadline is approaching, I don't dare to make too many big moves. I don't even dare to attack the veteran cadres. At this time, I recall that it may not be so correct to force Khrushchev to go to the palace.

The tenure system of leading cadres not only made the Soviet Union fall into the old age political pattern, but also brought great influence to the country. It is inevitable that people will become confused when they are old, and their energy will not keep up, making it difficult to implement the decisions made by the Soviet Union. After the central order is issued, the local implementation will also be greatly reduced.

This is also the reason why most Soviet leaders died during their term of office. After all, there is no way for an immortal successor to take over.

Andropov didn't speak, and neither did the other senior leaders of the CPSU Central Committee. After all, before the top leader has spoken, others would not dare to overtake them.

When the secretary saw it, he quickly reminded Andropov. The secretary knew the leader's physical condition and thought it was an old problem; this was a top secret to the Soviet Union. At this time, the horse's foot cannot be leaked, or else I don't know what to imagine next.

Andropov said with a smile: "When you are old, your energy is not worth it. As senior leaders of the country, you have to share more."

That being said, no one dared to take over. As long as Andropov is still in office, no one else has superfluous ideas. And the other party has a KGB background, a bad one will lead to death.

The most embarrassing person is definitely Chernenko. Although he is the successor, Andropov is still there at this time. If the performance is too obvious, then don't you hope that the other party has an accident!

Chernenko quickly said: "Comrade *** don't say that, the Soviet people still need your leadership; the entire alliance still needs to follow your instructions. You are our backbone, and seeing you today gives us a lot of peace of mind. . With your leadership, the U.S. and NATO have nothing to worry about."

This old boy's emotional intelligence is not low, and the position of successor is not so easy to do, which is the case in any country.

Hearing Chernenko say this, other high-level executives also began to echo.

As the only ruling party in the Soviet Union and the supreme leader of the Soviet Union, the Communist Party of the Soviet Union held a position of great power. Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union Mikhail Gorbachev wrote in the conclusion of his memoirs: "I serve as the When I was in the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, I had power comparable to that of a ** emperor.

As long as Andropov is alive, his orders will be carried out unconditionally, and his instructions must be obeyed.

Although he knew that few people were sincere, Andropov was still very happy. At least it shows that he is still the supreme leader of the Soviet Union and can control this huge country.

Andropov: "Comrade Viktor Mikhailovich Chebrikov gives us a briefing."

Viktor Mikhailovich Chebrikov was born in Dnipropetrovsk in 1923 to a working family. Went to the famous Dnipropetrovsk Metallurgical Institute - the melting pot of senior state cadres in the Brezhnev era. He joined the Soviet Union in 1944, Viktor Mikhailovich Chebrikov was vice-chairman of the KGB from 1968 to 1982, Yuri Vladimirovich Andropo in December 1982 After the Communist Party of the Soviet Union collapsed, Chebrikov took over as chairman of the KGB.

For this old subordinate, Andropov is still very relieved.

The two most powerful intelligence agencies during the Cold War, the chairman of the KGB, Chebrikov, is quite familiar with the old adversary of Admiral Turner.

Chebrikov said seriously: "The European Supreme Allied Command refers to one of the three commands of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization's military committee. It is headquartered in Castor, Belgium."

"The supreme commander is a general-level officer of the United States and is also the commander-in-chief of the United States Armed Forces in Europe. The Central European Command (located in Brumm, the Netherlands), the Nordic Command is located in Korsos, Norway, and the Southern European Command is located in Naples, Italy, United Kingdom Air Force Command in High Wycombe, England, and European Allied Mobile Forces Command in Zeckenheim, Germany, are responsible for defense areas including NATO European states excluding the United Kingdom and Portugal, as well as Mediterranean waters. "

"Admiral Stansfield-Turner had previously served as NATO Commander-in-Chief of the Southern European Union, and it is understandable to be promoted to NATO Allied Commander-in-Chief with the other side's seniority."

"However, Turner has another identity that needs to be noted. He served as director of the Central Intelligence Agency for 4 years, and is regarded as our old adversary."

"At present, a series of operations in the United States have not received effective intelligence, so it is impossible to make effective judgments. However, the purpose of turning Turner as the commander-in-chief of NATO's allied forces in Europe must be to confront the great Soviet Union~www.mtlnovel.com~ This person In terms of intelligence, as well as in terms of military command, it has its own unique strengths and cannot be underestimated. The KGB has ordered American and European personnel to fully investigate, and I believe the results will be obtained soon.

"But one thing is a little confusing, right before the appointment of Admiral Turner as NATO Allied Commander-in-Chief in Europe. He also participated in a TV show that analyzed the replacement of military vehicles in the United States, and the acquisition of Black Cloud Group. Where are the many retired military vehicles going to be sold?

"After participating in the show, Admiral Turner will assume a key position. Whether there is any connection here is still under investigation."

Reagan's unexpected move made the intelligence agencies of various countries very busy. Especially in the KGB of the Soviet Union, Admiral Turner's identity is too sensitive, and he is always worried if he does not investigate clearly. But the intelligence information is limited, and it is impossible to analyze what the Americans mean.

The KGB had no choice but to intensify its efforts, exposing many intelligence personnel. Even Reagan did not expect that there would be unexpected joy, which can be said to be unintentional.

At this time, Reagan was also sighing; if he had known this, it might have been better to have him serve as NATO Allied Commander-in-Chief in Europe when he first became president.
