Chapter 1525

Du Fei was very surprised by the invitation from Grandpa Natasha.

He did not object to meeting this old man and immediately agreed to go to Leningrad.

It was already mid-September, and the weather in Leningrad was full of autumn. Except for two or three hours at noon, it became increasingly cold in the morning and evening.

It was already five o'clock in the afternoon when Du Fei and Natasha arrived in Leningrad on his K-8 special plane.

After getting off the plane, a special car took them to a holiday villa on the beach.

After Natasha's grandfather retires, he will probably live in two places, one is the villa here, and the other is Sochi on the Black Sea.

The only thing I don’t like is going to Moscow to show off my presence.

In his own words, when you retire, you should look like you are retired, and don’t go around and be an eyesore.

It was just in time for dinner, and we had made arrangements in advance to have dinner together.

What we ate was traditional Sulian home-cooked food, which was not extravagant.

In addition to Du Fei and Natasha, there was also Natasha's cousin who was her uncle's eldest son.

Since Natasha's grandfather retired, Natasha's uncle has the highest family position and has inherited the most political resources.

We must strive to reach a higher level in a short period of time, at least before the old man dies, so that the future of the entire family will be secure.

However, from Du Fei's point of view, Grandpa Natasha's physical condition is not that urgent.

This was the second meeting between Du Fei and Grandpa Natasha, and it wasn't too strange.

The old man was in high spirits. He ate a large plate of roasted potatoes and roast beef. The all-white mustache on his lips was neatly trimmed, and he didn't get any vegetable soup on his face while eating.

The whole person's condition is much better than that of Polezhnye.

Du Fei watched Polezhnye's speech before the exercise on TV. The corners of his mouth were obviously twitching uncontrollably, and he could not control his drooling.

Considering that Polezhne had already suffered two strokes before, it can be expected that Polezhne's health condition was quite pessimistic at this time.

But no matter what, he has to appear in front of the camera.

Because when they see him, the people will feel at ease and feel at ease, and they will feel that they have less hala, and they don't care whether he has more or less hala.

"How did you feel after watching the exercise?" Lao Toka also wiped his mouth with a napkin and looked at Du Fei across the dining table with a smile.

Du Fei swallowed the beef in his mouth, took a sip of champagne and said: "It's very shocking. I read in Western newspapers that it has been written that the speed alliance's heavy-armed combined corps can sweep across Europe in eight days. This is not an alarmist exaggeration... …”

Du Fei did not hesitate to praise him and sent him top hats.

The smile on Toka's face became brighter and brighter, and the folds on his old face opened.

Listening on the side, Natasha and her cousin felt that Du Fei's evaluation was a bit exaggerated. They admitted that the combat effectiveness shown in this exercise was very strong, but it was not as strong as Du Fei said.

Obviously Toca also knew this. After hearing what Du Fei said, he asked again: "Nothing is perfect. Don't just talk about the good points. What are the shortcomings?"

Du Fei pursed his lips, and a hint of amusement flashed in his eyes: "If I want to talk about shortcomings, I think the only flaw is... It would be better if this exercise was not an exercise."

The three people present were all stunned when they heard this.

Du Fei's words were a bit convoluted, both hypothetical and negative, but the meaning was not difficult to understand.

Old Toka also frowned, stopped his smile and looked at him seriously, and said in a deep voice: "What do you mean?"

Du Fei said: "Forgive me for being presumptuous, but I really don't know what Comrade Polezhny is afraid of? Why don't you just fake it and do it for real? You already have the most powerful force on earth, but you just hold it in your hands." To scare the enemy instead of destroying them..."

Lao Toka also frowned more tightly, and even Natasha and her cousin became nervous.

Du Fei continued nonchalantly: "I think that since the fall of the Roman Empire, Europe has been divided for too long. Although there were great figures like Napoleon the Great, they were still unable to complete the feat of unifying the entire Europe. Now, Sulian already has this strength and has the external conditions. Whether it is Faguo or Itali, their horses are booming. As long as Mosco raises its arms, it will surely win... …”

At this point, Du Fei couldn't help but shake his head, with a look of regret on his face: "Unfortunately, although this exercise is shocking, it can only make the enemy even more crazy after fear. It's better to just fake it and do it for real, all the way west..."

When Du Fei finished speaking, Old Toka was silent for a moment, his eyes constantly looking up and down Du Fei's body, but he did not refute or get angry.

After a long while, he said calmly: "Young man, you have never seen the horror of war. Even if it is true as you said, we can help Faguo and Italy to liberate them, but why should our young man sacrifice his life to go there? Help them?"

Du Fei's heart trembled. He expected that Tokar would react in several ways, but he didn't expect to say this.

But it’s true if you think about it carefully.

In other words, from the perspective of SpeedLink people, it was thankless for them to do this before.

Those fruitful countries in Eastern Europe, including Poland, Hungary, and the Czech Republic, were helped by Sulian, but they felt that Sulian restricted them.

Let’s put aside what is right and wrong, at least from the perspective of a SpeedLink person.

This is still the case now. If Faguo and Itali are really included, we don't know what it will be like.

As we all know, Italians are famous for being trouble-makers, and Faguos are famous for being trouble-makers.

Du Fei was silent in his heart. If he stood from this perspective, there was indeed no problem.

As for mushroom bombs, Toka did not mention them, and Du Fei did not mention them either.

Because they all knew that if it was just for Europe, America would not use mushroom bombs to the point of dying together.

No matter what promises he had made before, no matter how nice he said, if he really wanted to be serious, he would not use them.

Just like in 1969, the Speed ​​Union clamored about this and that, but what happened in the end?

It was still raised high and put down lightly.

The reason is the same. They could not use mushroom bombs just because of a small-scale conflict more than 6,000 kilometers away from Moscow.

That kind of psychological state can only be mental illness.

But at the same time, old Toka also represents the mainstream attitude of Moscow to some extent.

Don’t look at it on the surface. Moscow always talks about Europe, but in fact he is not very interested in liberating Europe.

Or to be more precise, Moscow has been trying to avoid another large-scale war since World War II.

That time they lost too many people. Although they won the final victory, they were really hurt.

Otherwise, according to the population plan of Sulian, they should have at least 500 million to 600 million people, becoming the third most populous country in the world, twice that of America.

Coupled with the education system of Sulian, it is enough to burst out a strong human advantage.

Unfortunately, because of World War II, the total population of Sulian has only exceeded 300 million.

Back to the table, the topic of the exercise ended.

Old Toka asked about some of the situation in Huaguo, but he didn't involve any particularly deep issues, just chatting.

Until Natasha's cousin looked at the watch and got up and said goodbye in advance.

Du Fei also felt that the time was almost up, and it was dark outside.

What's more, the other person's grandson had left, and it would be inappropriate for an outsider like him not to leave.

Who knew that Old Toka actually stopped him and said: "Don't worry about him, he's busy all day, and I don't see him busy with anything."

Natasha's cousin walked to the door, heard this and paused for a moment, then quickened his pace and fled in a panic.

Natasha saw it and pouted.

Du Fei smiled. It was the first time he met Natasha's cousin, so it was hard to say anything.

At the same time, he became extra cautious.

He didn't believe that the old man in front of him kept him because he liked to chat with him. If he and Natasha were not married now, there might be a little possibility.

Obviously, Old Toka also had something to say, and he deliberately delayed until his grandson left.

Natasha's cousin was the core of the third generation of the family, and Old Toka would naturally not be on guard against him. There was only one possibility, which was protection.

Old Toka didn't want to involve his beloved grandson in some things too early.

Sure enough, when there were only three people left in the room, Natasha also took the initiative to stand up and said, "I'll make you a cup of black tea."

In a blink of an eye, only Du Fei and Toka were left.

Toka also stood up with the help of the chair and said, "Come with me to the balcony."

This big villa is close to the mountains and the sea. There is a huge balcony facing the sea, which is nearly 20 meters long on the left and right, and more than two meters in.

Du Fei stood up and followed.

From the balcony, you can see the lighthouse on the sea in the distance, and from time to time, there are faint whistles coming from a very far distance.

Old Toka also came to the balcony railing. Although he was old, his back was straight. He said lightly: "I heard from Natasha that you have some opinions on Comrade Porezhne's health?"

Du Fei was stunned. He didn't expect this old fox to be so straightforward.

But it was only a moment. Toka also came here specially and sent his two grandchildren away to have a secret talk.

God knows, the earth knows, you know and I know. If you leave this balcony, what you say and what you hear will not count.

Du Fei smiled: "You are joking. What do you need my opinion on this? If you insist on saying it, I am a little worried about Comrade Androbo..."

After this, even Old Toka's face changed.

It's nothing to say about Porezhne. The top leaders of Moscow know it well, but they just don't say it.

It's probably about the past two or three years.

And because of his health, many of Porezhne's powers have been virtually emptied.

Don't forget what Androbo, his designated successor, does.

That's why Toka was so nervous when Du Fei mentioned Androbo's name.

Now, you can say Porezhne, but you can't say Androbo.

One is dying, and the other has a long way to go.

But Toka also reacted immediately. Since Du Fei dared to speak out, it must not be aimless.

Is there really a big problem with Androbo's health?

At this time, Androbo's health has not shown any particularly serious problems.

Everyone knows that he has some problems with blood sugar and kidneys, but it seems that there are no major problems.

After all, at such an old age, it is impossible to be as strong as a young man.

But listening to Du Fei's tone, I'm afraid it's not that simple.

Du Fei didn't care. After pointing out Androbo's health just now, he simply let himself go.

Anyway, he will go home soon, and now he will kill him and not bury him.

Du Fei said shamelessly: "Our Huaguo Chinese medicine emphasizes observation, listening, questioning and palpation, that is, by observing some features of the patient's face, we can tell some symptoms..."

After saying a lot, Du Fei finally said with certainty: "So, I think Comrade Androbo may have suffered from a serious kidney disease."

Toka also had a serious expression.

Before this, he really didn't think of it.

But Du Fei's words were firm, and it didn't seem like nonsense. Moreover, it was okay not to know about such things. Once you notice the clues, it is not difficult to confirm.

Toka's thoughts were also racing.

The main reason why he retired before was to make way for Androbo and Chernenko.

He was older than Polezhne and the others, and it was reasonable that it was time for him to retire.

But if it was really as Du Fei said, Polezhne didn't say anything, and Androbo, as the heir, also had health problems, the situation would be a bit subtle.

Toka also took out a cigarette from his pocket, put it in his mouth but didn't light it.

Du Fei didn't continue to talk next to him, these were enough.

He just needed some variables, as for whether it would succeed or what the result would be, he couldn't force it.

We can only wait and see, and Toka will have to make a decision later.

Du Fei believed that an old fox who could come to this day and escape unscathed in the treacherous Moscow would have his own ideas and judgments.

The next day, Du Fei took a plane from Leningrad back to Beijing.

Du Fei did not make public the meeting with Natasha's grandfather, and did not even tell Zhu's father.

After all, this kind of thing is a bit taboo.

You can be more unrestrained outside, but you still have to restrain yourself when you return home.

In addition, the Western 81 military exercise of the Speed ​​Union was so shocking that Du Fei had the opportunity to watch it up close and master first-hand information.

After returning, he was immediately pulled over to participate in the systematic analysis of this exercise and discuss how to resist and respond if faced with such an attack.

This work lasted for several months before it came to an end.

...

The next year, that is, 1982.

Zhu Ting gave Du Fei another fat boy, named Du Zhengdong.

This is Du Fei's seventh child. Zhu Ting has three, and Zhu Li and Wang Yufen each have two.

Another major event that occurred in the first half of 1982 was the fight between Yingguo and Argentina over the South Atlantic.

This was not a sudden incident, in fact, the clues had already appeared in the second half of last year.

Argentina's economy has been in a mess in the past two years, with inflation exceeding 500%, and the economy is in a downturn with no end in sight.

In order to divert internal conflicts, they have long been eyeing the Falkland Islands.

And before that, in order to avoid irritating Lundun as much as possible, a series of tests were carried out.

Both sides made misjudgments in this process.

Yingguo thought Argentina did not dare, while Argentina thought Yingguo had given up control of these islands.

The result is imaginable.

What Du Fei did not expect was that this war thousands of miles away could actually involve him.
