Big Time 1958

This person who almost became Gorbachev's opponent in the future is now just a district party secretary, a horse boy under Torskykov, the first secretary of the Leningrad Municipal Party Committee. If this group is headed by Shelepin, Serov It may be ranked in the top ten, and Romanov may not have this person in the top 100. If it was a little higher, after the Shelepin Group was disintegrated, Romanov would definitely not be able to escape being sent by Brezhnev to be an ambassador to a certain country, and there was no chance at all with Gorbachev.

"Shurik, this time I came to Moscow to report the situation in Leningrad to the first secretary. By the way, let's catch up!" Torskykov shouted Shelepin's nickname, and the two big men had no scruples. hug together. Let Sheloff beside him caught off guard and see everything, and it's not necessary to meet friends! Fortunately, there was no Brezhnev kiss, which was truly unbearable.

"Torskikov, it's been a long time! I'll have a few drinks at my house tonight!" Sherepin was also very happy with the visitors from afar. Like ordinary Soviet people, he smoked the most choking cigarettes and drank the most powerful ones. Vodka is Shelepin's favorite, and Shelov is different from them. The most beautiful sleeping girl is what he pursues...

   A normal Soviet person, a bottle of wine at home is essential, and the amount of alcohol is very good! The severe cold climate also made these polar bears willing to drink two sips. Not everyone is a scumbag like Serov.

After drinking a glass of meaning, he focused most of his attention on Romanov. He felt that he was interesting in this era. Romanov was the secretary of the district committee under Tolskikov. A major helper! And Gorbachev is the secretary of the Komsomol in the border region, the biggest leader is Semichasny. The two who competed for the position of general secretary in politics and bureaus more than 20 years later were just two small cadres! As for Yeltsin. I'm sorry that even Serov, the vice-president of the KGB, couldn't find him! Most likely not yet joined the Communist Party...

"Shurik, I can't see you often in Leningrad, and I don't know much about things here. Is this Comrade Serov, the most outstanding cadre of our KGB in the past ten years?" Torskykov looked carefully. Looking at Serov, he suddenly smiled and said, "At first glance, it is our kind of people, you don't need to look at anything else, just look at the age!"

   "Haha..." Torskykov's words made Yegolychev and Semichasny burst into laughter at the same time.

   "Youth is never a criterion to prove a person's ability. On the contrary, many people only have the advantage of age, and they are as dumb as a zombie in their own position!" Said this sentence. Serov raised his glass to show his respect to the First Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee of Leningrad...

"Well said!" Shemichasny shouted at Shelov's remarks. The people here are all young people in the eyes of outsiders. Even Torskikov is one year younger than Sherepin, like Shemicha. Snee and Shelov are both under thirty-five years old, and they are the two youngest people in the Shelepin group. Even Romanov, who was beside Tolskikov, was older than the two of them.

   With Sherepin's criteria for choosing friends. No wonder Brezhnev just released a little rumor that the Communist Youth League was about to seize power, and immediately gathered followers to make everyone believe it! After all, it's nothing to pick out one of the people with Xie Lepin, but if they stand together, they are all young people who are less than forty years old.

   But there is no way, Serov knows the style of his boss, he likes to use younger than himself, and is not willing to deal with old-fashioned cadres at all. The boss is this virtue. No one can change it! Only to adapt to Shelepin. In addition to Khrushchev Sherepin will not accommodate others' ideas, as a leader with character. I'm just doing this, you scumbags better shut up.

In the political map of the Soviet Union, Leningrad has always been an important political cradle. From Kirov to Zhdanov, many big figures in the Soviet Union have walked out of Leningrad, and now the leader who has the closest relationship with Leningrad , it was Kosygin, the first vice-chairman of the Council of Ministers of the Soviet Union. Tolskykov came to Moscow this time, and he had no intention of cooperating with Sherepin and Yegorechev. Tolskykov’s goal was Leninger. Le's secretary of the state party committee, he hopes to communicate with Sherepin first, and take the post that Kirov and Zhdanov once held. Even if he is not the first secretary, he must first gain a firm foothold in the state party committee.

   Shelepin didn't even hesitate, just stating his position could help Torskikov. Xie Lepin has never been particular about this aspect, for his friend's request! As long as you feel that you are competent enough but competent, you are always willing to help.

Serov also established a good personal relationship with Romanov. In essence, the difference in status between the two was relatively large. Romanov instantly felt that the vice-chairman of the KGB was not bad. . Serov introduced Romanov to Semychasny. One thing is certain, if the Serepin clique is no better than the Brezhnev clique, the future Soviet political and political bureaucrat will follow them. People fell together, and there was no chance to compete with Gorbachev.

I don't know if this is good or bad for Romanov, but Serov feels that it should be nothing. If you fail sooner or later, you will fail. Instead of being silently forced to retire by Gorbachev, it is better to be with Shelepin Make a big news, even if it fails, it is a big sensation, it is better than obscurity.

   For the hand of death that Serov extended, Romanov, who was only the secretary of the district party committee, naturally grabbed it gratefully. I hope that when the time comes for the decisive battle between the Shelepin Group and the Brezhnev Group, the Secretary of the District Party Committee will not be discouraged.

Tolskykov, Yegolychev and Sherepin were talking about the specifics of how to operate Leningrad, and Serov took Semichasny and Romanov to talk about some boring questions, of course, mainly Serov and Romanov. The two of Novo said that Semichasny was okay, just an interjection. This is very in line with Semichasny's character. His attitude towards doing things was greatly influenced by Shelepin. This relaxed atmosphere still allows Shelov to dominate the comparison. it is good.

   "I've always heard that the KGB's Caspian Tiger is a terrible person, and now I see it with my own eyes and I know it's a rumor!" Romanov's expression gradually relaxed, and he was able to joke about Serov!

Serov looked indifferent and said in a relaxed tone, "Comrade Romanov also said that it was a rumor, everyone has misunderstood the work of our KGB, let alone murder, I have never seen a dead person... "

"I'm going to get a glass of vodka!" Shemichasny suddenly stood up and said, and without hesitation he went to Shelepin's side, pretending to be like this, really took a glass of vodka and tasted it for himself. Time has no intention of coming back.

  We are such an ideal group, how did Yuri get in? This is the question that Semichasne has always wanted to figure out, let alone murder, I have never seen a dead person! Your **** in the Caucasus prison was wiped by me, the first secretary. Semichasny felt that the whole person was not good when he heard Serov's words, and he was deceiving his comrades in such a serious manner.

"Vladimir is like this, we are all comrades, there is no distinction between superiors and subordinates! Comrade Romanov, don't care!" Serov turned a blind eye to Semichasny's dissatisfaction, and looked at Romanov with an unchanging smile. . But judging from Serov's expression, it reflects the greatest, most glorious, and most correct side of the proletariat.

It wasn't long before the discussions between Tolskykov, Yegolychev and Sherepin were completed. There was no problem with Tolskykov living here with Sherepin, but he himself avoided the pretense of being attacked. Back at the hostel in Moscow, Torskykov is also preparing to walk around with cadres from various departments of the Soviet Union in the next few days.

   "We can walk around a bit more if we have the opportunity!" Shelov said humbly, holding Romanov's hand, and gave the secretary of the district committee extraordinary attention. This is the second time Shelov has extended the hand of death tonight.

After sending off Torskykov, the first secretary of the Leningrad Municipal Party Committee, Serov returned to Shelepin's villa. He still had something to discuss with Shelepin, "This is the invitation letter from the Indonesian Ministry of Internal Affairs to the KGB for a return visit. I am ready to give an answer to the Indonesian side! I am ready to start preparing to visit Indonesia, but the time has not yet been determined!" Serov directly handed the invitation letter to Shelepin in front of Semichasny and Yegolychev, and the two Although people are not KGB people, they are definitely trustworthy and don't be afraid to leak information.

"Are you going to Indonesia? Indonesia is too far away from our radiated power!" Sherepin shook his head and said after thinking hard, "The news from Comrade Andropov shows that the situation in Indonesia is not bad! I totally see it. If you don't come out, you need to go..."

"The invitation letter has been sent, I must go! And I want to take a huge delegation to go! It's just that the time has not been determined. Today I have two tasks, which is to use the time of the Rome Olympics to go to Italy for inspection. The matter has been decided, and the first secretary is very supportive. The other is Indonesia's itinerary! There are three kinds of forces in Indonesia, mainly the Communist Party, the military and religious forces! Let's not talk about religious forces, this time I plan to support one This force represents our Soviet Union!" Serov analyzed the situation in Indonesia and clenched his fists and said, "The uncountable population of two million territories should be a member of the socialist camp!"

   "Are you sure?" Xie Lepin read the invitation again, and then asked his ace chief.

"I'm not 100% sure, how can there be 90%!" Shelov raised his head slightly and put on an indifferent smile. This expression made Shelepin, Semichasny, and Yegolychev all laugh. It was someone they knew, not the good old guy who chatted with Romanov. (To be continued~^~)
