Big Time 1958 Chapter 82

  Lunch was in the woods. A long table is filled with a wide variety of Russian delicacies, soft and hard drinks. Perhaps because of the lengthy talks after the meal, the alcoholic Khrushchev had only a couple of sips of the fragrant vodka and wine. From this alone, Nixon understood that Khrushchev's irritable temper was dominated by him, not him, and that drinking was to cover up and not let alcohol get in the way. The conversation at lunch was pleasant and lighthearted, and Khrushchev showed his sense of humor.

Serov, who was the guest court painter, drooped his eyelids and asked Issemotny to go back to the General Office to deal with the documents. At the same time, he asked the music and painting teachers for a leave of absence. If Kuznetsov and Medvedi came to be guests again, please also ask. She greeted, herself and Lukani watching the false friendship created by Khrushchev and Nixon.

   I have to say that this kind of feeling of people sitting and standing with you is not pleasant. Fortunately, it is not to the point where people are eating and you are watching!

   "General Sheloff, why are you so restrained? You can sit down and dine with us!" Nixon never forgot Sheloff, who was flying a kite on the outskirts. Nixon was more accustomed to this relaxed occasion than anyone else.

"Mr. Vice President, this is my job! When working, you should be serious and make no mistakes!" Sheloff refused Nixon's kindness and pushed Lukani out. "But my The assistant is a little hungry, the little girl should probably take a break! The young little girl should be taken care of at work..."

  Then pushed the somewhat restrained Lukani over, and flew a kite ten meters away from the dinner! , "Yuri is our famous and good husband in Moscow, and we have a model couple's pennant from the city government at home!"

"But I see that this young man you are very optimistic about is running like a machine. Does he really like this kind of life?" Nixon felt that Serov was more rigid than any Soviet Union he had seen. Machine feel.

"Haha, our capitalist friends feel that the youngest lieutenant general in the Soviet Union has no freedom. Let Yuri speak for himself!" Khrushchev seemed to have thought of something very funny, and greeted Serov to come over and let him speak for himself. .

"Everyone's interests are different. For me, maintaining the security of the country and providing a stable and legal environment for the people is the most suitable job for me. So far, I have never lost interest in the work of the KGB. As a law enforcement agency, I must give The people are fair, that's it!" Shelov gave a military salute and said slowly, "Only a stable social environment can calm the people, and only with such an environment can the people create value, and every department is the machine of the state. Part of it, we're doing well, there's no reason the Soviet people wouldn't benefit..."

   Shelov said it without pretentiousness! After all, he used to be the successor of communism. As long as he repeats his spirit from elementary school, no one can say that Serov is lying now, let alone that he never lied.

   Shelov's words were very recognized by everyone, and Suslov nodded frequently, and Shelov's thoughts were very recognized by him.

Khrushchev's personality is very unstable. Although it is not necessarily malicious, his moody personality is really uncomfortable. He used Soviet missiles to stir up a topic, and even Mikoyan's adjustment was useless. There was an argument with Nixon about missiles. And the question of the strategic bomber, after Nixon asked about the fuel of the Soviet missiles, Serov had to remind softly, "Mr. Vice President, let the agents of the CIA solve this kind of problem, as long as they don't die at my hands, Sooner or later we'll figure it out, but I think the latter possibility is almost impossible..."

"Soviet leaders always made some bellicose remarks, and I didn't expect even the young people to think so!" Nixon shook his head and said, "I hope you don't think that the 51-nation Communist Party Congress held in Moscow talked about what We don't even know, and Mr. Khrushchev has openly supported the world communist revolution? You KGB agents are active in Algeria, Egypt, Sudan, and I believe this young general will not be ignorant at all..."

Serov knows more than that, the KGB institutions in these places are all established by him. Khrushchev, who is present, knows best that the KGB was established by Khrushchev from the Ministry of Internal Affairs. It is equivalent to the first secretary. The most powerful trump card in his hand, so he interjected, "There are revolutions in those places, indicating that the world is not equal! This is a very normal thing..."

Shelov spread out the drawing board and held the pencil so that he could draw a sketch in ten minutes. After he finished drawing, he walked to Nixon's side and said, "Mr. Nixon, this is my gift to you before you return to the United States!" Drawing on white paper The strategic bomber that has been flying all the time is the B52 strategic bomber known as the stratospheric fortress in the United States. The bomb bay under the belly has been opened, and a steady stream of bombs are falling. Next to it is Serov's comment, you don't embrace freedom, freedom must be will be whizzing...

"It's better to withdraw your foreign advisory groups before criticizing the Soviet Union. Your military bases are much more than ours. The double standard is not too obvious!" After saying these words, Serov went back directly to Fly a kite outside. The distance is further away, so that the quarrel of the big man cannot be heard.

  Khrushchev also saw Serov's sketch, and immediately chatted with the surrounding Soviet cadres, embarrassing Nixon who was holding the sketch, and making this stubborn anti-Soviet ** element look ugly, and the surrounding Soviet cadres chatted more and more vigorously.

Three days later, in the KGB Chairman's Office at No. 11 Lubyanka Square, Serov lay on the sofa and faced KGB Chairman Shelepin. I just finished the course an hour ago! Should you replace the staff of our 200,000 agency? Although I am young, I don't want to age before I get old!”

"Yes, it's really early! How about I suggest to the general secretary that the vice-chairman of the KGB should be replaced by someone else!" Shelepin seemed to be seriously considering Serov's suggestion, when Serov suddenly jumped up from the sofa and saluted the army with his head held high. , showing the vigorous spirit of a KGB cadre.

With a look of disgust, Shelepin laughed and scolded, "You can overcome your laziness a little at this time, Moscow model couple? Isn't it just afraid of your wife? Now that Valya is in Kyiv, you don't have to hide on the balcony to smoke, right? The KGB has been the most suitable for work evaluation in ten years, that is, people outside the family don't know how lazy you are..."

After a period of routine suppression, Shelepin announced refreshingly, "Yuri Yefimovich Serov, after being proposed by the Central Presidium and approved by the KGB Presidium meeting, was appointed as the Vice Chairman of the KGB! Member of the KGB Presidium, the ninth in the sequence, the middle The rank of general! The specific work is in charge of the General Administration of Military Administration, the General Administration of Technical Administration and the General Administration of Surveillance and Investigation,"
