Soviet Union 1991

Update 2

"From Georgia to Estonia, the front against Soviet rule did not dissipate after the Tbilisi incident, but gradually grew with the capitalism of Eastern European countries. Georgia and the three Baltic countries were particularly bad. The punitive crackdown did not stop them, but made them carry out covert activities more rampantly. It seems that they have not yet woken up from the sweet dream of the Gorbachev era."

Yanayev read a report word by word in front of Shushkevich. The report was "The Crisis of the Union States" written by a KGB official, and Yanayev immediately expressed his great importance to the report.

Shushkevich was a little uneasy. From Tbilisi to the Kremlin, his mood had never been so complicated. At the beginning, he imagined that his letter would be noticed by others, and even imagined that it would be placed on Yanayev's desk, so that the gloomy owner would make a difficult choice. But he didn't expect that he would be invited to the Kremlin so soon, to talk about life and ideals with the butcher he least wanted to face.

"Do you know why I invited you to the Kremlin?" Yanaev asked calmly.

"Is it because of that letter of accusation, an anonymous letter of accusation?" In front of Yanaev, Shushkevich never pretended to be stupid, because the other party was a devil who could see through people's hearts. Playing small calculations in front of Yanaev was tantamount to playing a joke with one's own life, or a big joke.

(WeChat-Public-Account: Yanaev. New story series has begun)

"No, no, no, the letter of accusation is just one aspect. I almost immediately determined that this was a gift you presented to Moscow to try it out in order to save your career, Comrade Shushkevich. I am very happy that you chose the right team, because we are just preparing to purge the Georgian political arena."

Hearing Yanaev's answer, Shushkevich breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that he had escaped the fate of being judged by this devil. He raised his head again, trying to show Yanaev the politically correct appearance of the first secretary of the republic. As soon as he looked up, he saw Yanaev's gloomy face with a hint of anger.

"It's a pity that your letter of accusation didn't help us, and it also disrupted all the arrangements in Moscow. Comrade Shushkevich." Yanaev deliberately rubbed his temples pretending to have a headache, "Originally, our evidence was not sufficient, and even with your letter of accusation, it might not be able to uproot them. If you do this, they will definitely destroy the evidence. Without evidence, we will have no way to take action against these people."

Take a deep breath, Shushkevich didn't know how to answer Yanaev's question. He didn't expect that his letter of accusation would do more harm than good.

"But..." Yanaev changed the subject, "The knight is not without a chance to make amends. If Comrade Shushkevich is willing, I hope you can do us a favor. This favor is the key turning point for whether we can successfully annihilate this group of ambitious people."

Shushkevich nodded in agreement. Let alone helping one person, even if it's ten or a hundred, as long as he can save his life. And Yanaev is also convinced that opportunists like Shushkevich will definitely choose to agree to his request for his own life.

"Very good. In this case, I will tell the truth. I hope Comrade Shushkevich will pretend to lean towards the side of Georgian nationalism and tell them that you are willing to help with armed subversion in Georgia. You can even mobilize the army to pave the way for their political reforms."

"Why do you want to do this? Isn't it okay to nip the bud now? I can stand up and identify the crimes of these people." Shushkevich hesitated and asked Yanaev, if the situation develops to that point. For Georgia, it will be the most serious blow, not only giving Moscow an excuse to clean up the mess openly, but also taking the opportunity to stabilize the situation in Georgia, which has been undercurrent.

"Nip the seeds in the bud?" Yanaev shook his head. "My approach is to truly prepare to nip the seeds in the bud. As long as those people don't die and there is no greater unrest, we can't truly achieve political stability in Georgia. Do you understand this?"

Shushkevich suddenly remembered a meaningful sentence Yanaev said to him after the Tbilisi incident. "The blood has not been shed enough, and the unrest will never end." Looking back now, the meaning of this sentence has become clearer and clearer. After the Soviet Union's economic problems stabilized, especially reducing cooperation with European countries. Turning to economic and trade exchanges with Asian countries gave the Soviet Union the confidence to remove the cancer.

"Listen to me, Comrade Shushkevich. After you go back, Moscow will spread the word that someone has anonymously reported Comrade Shushkevich, and Moscow will also launch an investigation. You have nowhere else to go, so you choose the Georgian nationalist forces. They certainly welcome your arrival. When you lean towards them, you will start the plan I mentioned and place their people in the top ranks of the army. It doesn't matter, Moscow can tolerate this."

"Next, Moscow will spread the word of the letter of accusation, reporting these guys' treasonous behavior. You will wait for an opportunity to instigate this group of people to launch a revolution, and even instigate them to contact the President of Turkey to provide asylum for Georgia. For such a buffer zone, I think there is a 50% probability that the Turkish top leaders will choose to accept it."

"Next, you just need to provide us with the list, and we will completely destroy this group before they launch a coup. I believe you, Comrade Shushkevich, you will not choose to pretend to be real. Because you will never know how much effort I have invested in this area of ​​Georgia, and how many secret action units of the Ministry of Internal Affairs there are."

Yanayev's words were like a nail, piercing Shushkevich's chest fiercely, making this fox hunter who claimed to have never had an accident feel dizzy. It seemed that his actions were step by step towards the trap set by Yanaev. From the time he heard the news until now, everything was a set routine.

The Caucasus Butcher Plan carefully arranged by Yanayev finally unfolded its dark fangs. The autonomous privileges of the member states that have been indulged for so many years should also be tightened. (To be continued.)
