Chapter 1742 infiltration into a sieve
Five million Soviet troops to disarm half a million, the Soviet Army in Germany accounted for one-third of the disarmament, more than 100,000 Soviet troops in Germany Arikseyev could not solve all of them, he was trying his best to rescue tens of thousands of officers and soldiers in the city of Kalinin, to help to re-survive in this grandma’s and uncle’s society.
If there is anyone in the entire Soviet Union right now who best understands the possible consequences for the Russian communities in the three Baltic states, it is the few men now in front of them, and the half a million rehabilitated soldiers behind them who have become young men-in-waiting, “If Lithuanian independence succeeds, 700,000 to 800,000 Russians will be whisked out of Lithuania like dogs, and that’s not all, Lithuania separates Kaliningrad and the mainland. How would the million or so Russians in Kaliningrad get by without the support of the homeland, and what about the Russians in Latvia and Estonia?”
These were all possible futures, extrapolated from reasonable assumptions, and several people looked at each other without asking the stupid question of what the center was doing, what would the center do?
If the center had been the least bit prepared, they, the officers and men of the Soviet Army in Germany, would not have ended up in the situation they were in today.
“Vice President, what do you want to do?” Leonid asked first, making an unsolicited tone of voice, “We can’t let millions of Russians end up in a pathetic situation.”
“Of course we can’t, it’s a great tragedy when houses are taken away and decades of peaceful life become homeless.”
Seeing that several people were filled with righteous indignation, Arikseyev knew that he had achieved his goal, “If the center finally compromises this time, and of course we all hope that this scenario will not occur, then the only thing left is to save ourselves. The local Russians will have to decide their own fate, and the good thing is that over the years our country has never dared to let its guard down in its military buildup.”
After playing the pity card, Alikseyev spoke his mind, making an expansive tone, “I’ve made some money in the alcohol industry over the years. I could have used that money to live a better life, but today I’ve decided to take all fifty million dollars and use it all for a more meaningful cause.”
Although he had far more than that, it was not appropriate to take it all out on this occasion; after all, Berezovsky, who was claimed to be the richest man in the USSR, was rumored to be about that much.
Now the Soviet Union does not exist a billionaire, he a public official a take is a hundred million a hundred million, even these retired demobilized personnel are inevitably more thought.
It had to be said that this performance of the Tsar’s son, who was willing to pour his family’s money out for the sake of the motherland, was still very effective, and a few demobilized officers and soldiers, who had once come close to homelessness but had since settled in the city of Kalinin, were instantly very moved.
They were absolutely convinced that Alexeyev had taken out everything there was to take, fifty million dollars, a sum they could not even imagine.
Kalinin vodka, which dominated the Soviet black market during Prohibition, brought in revenue which wasn’t all, but most of it was in rubles.
As Vice Chairman of the KGB, Arikseyev wanted to steal the market from a bunch of law thieves, these social loafers were defenseless, and he wasn’t just selling alcohol.
Of course even if they were heartthrob henchmen, a few of them didn’t know the inside story, all they needed to know was that on a larger scale like the wave of homelessness they were facing was coming and they should do something about it themselves.
Armed with dollars, they traveled to the Baltic Military District and took down the Soviet Union’s least deficient arsenal and put it in the hands of the local Russian community, “If the center solves this problem, the money will be used to build a new housing complex in Kalinin, we’re all after a better life, and that’s not a mistake. But if the center can’t solve this problem, we need to think about doing something for our nation.”
Of course Alikseyev still added that the act of helping the Russians is limited to Lithuania for the moment, complaining, “I’m really out of options, and who, given the choice, would like to see their own country, with such a place where armed conflict could break out?”
“We’ll set out with our men at once, I still have comrades serving in Kaliningrad, let’s see if we can get any help nearby.” Leonid once again volunteered, someone else, a highly placed KGB vice-chairman, was willing to lose his family for this country, so what was there for him to hold back.
Alekseyev took out a bottle of high-grade red wine and laughed bitterly, “Luckily, I’m still not lacking in alcohol, and I’m still able to have a drink with you guys, and when we get to the place there will naturally be someone to cooperate with you.”
Alexeyev is the vice chairman of the KGB, but don’t forget one thing, his wife Alexandra is also a secret agent origin, the husband and wife are both very professional in this, Alexandra has contacted a group of new trainees, lurking in the three Baltic countries, to provide help for the Soviet Army’s operations.
Vilnius, the capital of the union republic of Lithuania, among the citizens did not know that since yesterday, the roads in Lithuania had been blocked by the Soviets in the Baltic Military District, and the Alpha Force, which had come over to tackle the secessionist forces, had appeared at the military airfield, ready to take action on the secessionist forces.
Alan Wilson didn’t know how long the next stage of convincing, disarming and then going back to their respective homes was going to last, but these steps were generally inevitable, and he was sure that the Americans would let him know when it was going to start, after all, with the sentiment of the Five Eyes Coalition in place, the US was sure to want to pull the UK along with them, or on their backs when it came time to make their move.
Now no one could stop him from having a good end of the year, he was coming up to the last year of his civil service career, after a full year of 1991 he would be of retirement age, a million years away from his years of work and a year of becoming a rue again.
“Sometimes I wonder what meaningful things I’ve done in my life.” Alan Wilson, who had come to Hepburn for Christmas, muttered to himself with a hand-wringing expression.
“What have you done? Didn’t you sleep with Hepburn?” Hepburn gave Allen Wilson a blank look and said with a sour taste, “Tell me a moment, what more do you want?”
“Indeed, this is the great achievement of my life.” Alan Wilson decisively went down the slope and grabbed Hepburn’s hand to express his adoration, “Even if you give me the Prime Minister’s position, I won’t change it.”
Hepburn grunted lightly, as if the Prime Minister’s position was something you cared about, “Don’t say these polite words of unknown significance, Sheehan is still within the Soviet Union, isn’t he?”
“He’ll be back before I retire for sure.” Alan Wilson made a solemn promise, but of course the subtext of that promise was that he couldn’t come back just yet.
And Hepburn’s good oldest child is not necessarily back yet, all over the place is a big hairy girl in Eastern Europe, white skin, beautiful and long legs, Sheehan a foreign businessman on these Slavic hairy girl’s killing power is huge, if it is not a good oldest child is still young, the supreme authority is worried, is it not to pay attention to the body?
The importance of finances to a country is self-evident, and the immediate example is the Soviet Union, where the lethality of economic difficulties is evident.
However, Alan Wilson still believes that the difficulties of the Soviet Union, although it exists, but the main map head of their own problems, you even do governing any year the economy is growing, can blame the difficulties on the general environment, but to be from the power on the whole country creeping backward, it is only your own problems.
Stagger the major projects of the land, sea and air forces, fifteen years a major renewal, to ensure that can be in a long time in an orderly manner for the development of British defense? He felt that there was still something to learn from his decades-long rival.
In Lithuania, the troops of the 3rd Motorized Infantry Division of the Kintetsu and the 7th Airborne Division of the Kintetsu, have taken control of large and small corridors in Lithuania, while at the same time, the actions of the Baltic Military District have been made known. Washington, for its part, wished to discuss with the British to discuss the progress regarding the situation in Lithuania.
“It’s been infiltrated into a sieve with no secrets.” Alan Wilson got the news, sighing that the current Soviet Union and twenty years ago is really completely different, the memory of the raid on Czechoslovakia, this world’s airborne Warsaw is how successful, and now, in their own territory only a little bit of movement, the whole world knows.
Still, as a member of the Five Eyes Coalition, Alan Wilson was obliged to join in the discussion, proposing three directions, two of which were exactly the same, and the third possibility was totally unacceptable, such as bombing Warsaw.
“Couldn’t the problem be solved within the enemy? Honestly if it’s the Soviet Union that’s imploding, sure it’s dangerous, but actually if there are Lithuanian casualties it would give the free world a better chance to take the moral high ground, wouldn’t it?”
There was a long silence on the CIA’s end before they finally replied, “Solving the problem from within the enemy is certainly a good idea, we still hope that British public opinion will side with the United States when the time comes.”
“That’s of course, the two countries are shoulder-to-shoulder partners, and although they don’t agree on all issues, this kind of thing is a big deal.”
Alan Wilson replied firmly, and it was certainly time to express hesitant apprehension, “The more it comes to this, it would be a lie to say I’m not nervous.”
For his part, the other party expressed understanding of Britain’s uneasiness, while expressing cautious optimism, and then ended this call, the Soviet Union was going to rough up Lithuania, and before any real action had been taken, it was already widely known both at home and abroad, and the Chetniks, who were the President of Russia, were quickly made aware of the movement of the Baltic Military District.
“The army!” The Chetnik muttered, he knew that now worse than the head of the map, is now the powerful Soviet army still support each other, today the Soviet army can suppress Lithuania, tomorrow will be able to suppress him as the President of Russia, “I want to meet with the U.S. Ambassador.”
