Big Time 1958 Chapter 102

Eisenhower understood this, as did Khrushchev, who in turn raised the issue of disarmament, "Now the fact is that the United States is aggressive in every way! Eisenhower has sincerity and the Soviet Union to take a stance of peaceful competition in a peaceful environment. We don't need the huge army now! Mr. Eisenhower should understand that since Stalin's death, the Soviet Union has cut more than two million troops, and it is a unilateral cut. Doesn't this still express our sincerity in peaceful coexistence?"

Seeing that there was no refutation on the other side, Khrushchev stretched out his index finger and said in his own tone, "We can even discuss the issue further, withdraw all troops stationed on the European continent, dissolve the North Atlantic Treaty and the Warsaw Pact! Recall! What does Mr. Eisenhower think about their respective troops stationed in various countries around the world?"

How about it? Eisenhower knew in his heart that of course it was impossible! The national strength of the United States is stronger than that of the Soviet Union, and its allies are also old-fashioned powers such as Britain, France, Germany and Japan. Although Italy has developed a trend of neutrality in the past two years that does not stand between the United States and the Soviet Union, it is still a member of NATO, and Italy also has the United States garrison presence. Even an arms race the United States could withstand far better than the Soviet Union leading a bunch of poor countries.

   In this case, Eisenhower still believes that the United States currently has the strength to support this confrontation, and it is the Soviet Union that consumes more power, so why not maintain it! The reason for proposing to control the nuclear industry and the aerospace industry is because the Soviet Union has shown very strong strength in this regard. Containment is good for the United States, and disarmament and withdrawal from the European continent are not good for the United States. Of course, as the president of the United States, he cannot agree, even if the Soviet Union proposes to dissolve The withdrawal of foreign troops from the two military alliances makes sense. The whole world thinks it was wrong for America to refuse, and he must too.

   Besides, Eisenhower also knew that the Soviet Union itself bordered Europe. Once the U.S. military has completed its withdrawal, the Soviet Union only needs to go back and assemble four major clusters, which can completely turn Europe red within two weeks. The United States has no ability to go back across the Atlantic Ocean in two weeks.

"The United States has the responsibility to protect the safety of Europe. Besides, there are so many threats in the world. Without the United States, the world will fall into chaos. We are the first free country in the world! It is the responsibility of all people in the world to be free. Live!" Eisenhower tactfully told Khrushchev that this was impossible.

"Is this the destiny of this century?" Serov, who was holding his head with one hand on the table, said in an indifferent tone, "What age is it? You are still promoting this kind of feudal superstition! Will it change? Or, except for the United States, the national IQ of all countries is less than 60? Leaving the teaching of my father in the United States, I can't even handle the affairs of my own country? President Eisenhower went so far as to say that the current rights of the United States are granted by the monarchy. Then, as the president of the United States, you should be almost like God, right?"

   Shelov put on an indifferent attitude, evaluated the United States in a very impolite manner, and dismissed the so-called American exceptionalism in his words, which made Nixon very annoyed and almost jumped up and said. "General Serov, you are insulting all Christians..."

"How many divisions does the Pope have?" Serov first stood up and looked at all the American negotiators on the opposite side and said, "The first secretary of Khrushchev came with sincerity, but you must not think that the Soviet Union is a I'm afraid of you! The first secretary is also under a lot of pressure! Not all Soviets are interested in de-escalating and peaceful competition with you America!"

   Shelov directly stated the pressure on Khrushchev, lit a cigarette for himself, treated everyone like air, took two breaths and pressed his hands on the table. like a hooligan. Everyone, including Eisenhower, wanted to know what the young man was going to do.

"Capitalism seems to be only practised in the British colonies and Europe is not bad. But it is far from success! Your success seems to have nothing to do with capitalism! The capitalist camp that looks bright now, in the fifty The names of the years ago were imperialist powers! The country is still those countries. Nothing has changed! When did the accumulation of the colonial economy of the imperialist powers count as your capitalism?" Serov commented dismissively, "A The countries that were not affected in World War II won the Second World War by picking up leaks! Pointing at our countries that were hit hard and saying, look, the Soviet Union is so poor, it must be a problem of communism! What about before communism? You won't tell me The illiterate serfs of the Russian Empire lived happier lives than today's Soviet citizens?"

"We are not discussing who is better between capitalism and communism. In fact, we all think our system is better!" Nixon said lightly, "We agree with the attitude of First Secretary Khrushchev's peaceful development. But in view of the responsibility of the United States, NATO cannot be abolished now! Many countries still need the protection of the United States, the Soviet people may not believe in God, but the American people still love God very much!"

"You can really use NATO to stop the socialist movement in Europe! But what about Asia? What about America? Africa? People in these places are poor and they want to be treated fairly! The standard of living in Europe is very poor by comparison. The high contradiction has not been so sharp, does Mr. Nixon really think that the United States can put out the fire of resistance everywhere?" Serov said slowly, as if seeing the garbage destined to stand on the opposite side of history waiting to be cleaned up, "France has two hundred 100,000 Communists, 2.3 million in Italy! 300,000 in the Greek Communist Party, and 80,000 in the United States! There are more than 100 Communist parties all over the world, and behind them is a billion The poor class of people! You block Europe, but you still can't stop the spread of communism in the world..."

In an era when China and the Soviet Union did not export revolutions at the same time, it is impossible to understand the fear that communism caused to the capitalist camp. In fact, people living in the Soviet Union would not understand why they were all afraid of themselves. Things that have long been accustomed to seem unbelievable to others. While Shelov was speaking, Khrushchev found that during today's one-day meeting, the three people opposite the US President, Vice President and Secretary of State had solemn expressions on their faces for the first time. It is conceivable that the numbers in Shelov's mouth gave them to them. How much pressure.

   Now it seems that exporting revolution is not without effect at all. Khrushchev has never been as enthusiastic about exporting revolution as Lenin and Stalin, because he knew that armed struggle would be very difficult to succeed. Today Khrushchev sees that even if it fails, it is still necessary to export the revolution, and the Americans are afraid of this.

Serov's cannon fodder work was done to perfection, and he completed his mission at a super level. In the end, Khrushchev stopped Serov from continuing to say that statistics prove how powerful communism is. The numbers are cold but not deceiving. The number of members is far more a headache for the real elites in the United States than any propaganda.

Khrushchev made a painless summary, and analyzed the possibility of peaceful coexistence between the United States and the Soviet Union from an overall perspective. About fifty years later, public opinion about the peaceful coexistence of the two major powers also appeared. , Shelov remembered that it was called G2, but China at that time was not as naive as Khrushchev now. It may also be because there is an example of the Soviet Union, where the body is not cold, and has always maintained a vigilant attitude towards the United States. develop their own national strength.

Far smarter than today's Khrushchev. If Serov remembers correctly, Khrushchev visited the United States for less than a year, and the TASS agency that talked about the spirit of Camp David every day was because of the U2 reconnaissance plane incident. Started calling America imperialism all over again.

On the second and last day of the conversation, Serov was like a puppet all the time. In addition to smoking, drinking water, sometimes accompanied by a few yawns. All positions have been made clear yesterday, and the time for Khrushchev to return to China has been set . So today's talks are nothing like gunpowder. Soviet Foreign Minister Gromyko said to Nixon, "Mr. Nixon, Comrade Khrushchev and I will return to China because of time!"

   "That's a pity! Although we haven't reached any agreement, there is already a way for dialogue, and these days of negotiations are a good start!" Nixon said, glancing at Eisenhower.

"But General Shelov will conduct an investigation in the United States for a period of time!" Gromyko said in a different tone, "Because the first secretary and I do not have enough time, General Shelov will make an investigation in the United States, and then write a report to the Give us!"

"I will write a very real report, listing all the strengths and weaknesses of the United States, the points worth learning and those that must be criticized!" Shelov put his finger on his big-brimmed hat and yawned, "Even if it is a peaceful competition , we also need to understand our opponents!"

"It looks more like an upright espionage activity!" Nixon teased Serov, but he did not plan to take any action against Serov. He stayed in the United States to investigate, and only needed the necessary surveillance. He did not believe that Serov could be in Hu What tricks did the Buddha's surveillance come up with?

"My first stop is the headquarters of the Communist Party of America! If the FBI wants to, I can bring two agents in!" Sheloff's words made Nixon's smile freeze for an instant. I didn't expect Sheloff to be so bold and straightforward to say that he wanted to To the headquarters of the American Communist Party, he also expressed his willingness to bring FBI agents with him.
