Chapter 1,276 Big things are coming one after another
The meeting lasted until the evening. Khrushchev's resolute attitude gave everyone a headache. They decided to continue the discussion the next day and gave Khrushchev a night to think about it.
At this time, he was still the First Secretary and Chairman of the Council of Ministers, but in fact his contact with the outside world had been cut off.
His personal guard was also replaced, and now the head of the Ninth Directorate of the KGB, Colonel Chekalov, was responsible for his security. Chekalov obeyed Semichasny without hesitation.
If he wanted to, Khrushchev could have died of serious illness without anyone noticing, but Semichasny firmly opposed this. From the KGB's point of view, this was a de facto coup. The KGB cut off Khrushchev.
The source of all surrounding information is something that all members of the Central Presidium know. Once Khrushchev's death is unclear, the KGB will be questioned by others even if it does nothing, Semichasny told
Xie Lieping, doing this is definitely a hidden danger.
"Where is Khrushchev's persistence?" Semichasny asked. Naturally, he hoped that after a night of calming down, Khrushchev would be able to figure out not to continue struggling.
"He wants to copy Molotov's time and use the resolutions of the Central Committee members to attack the resolutions of the Central Presidium." Serepin said seriously, "No, we must guard against this trick. In the past two years, cadres have been transferred frequently. It is true that he personally
There are quite a lot of new faces promoted. Unless the Central Committee members know that the situation is over, they may really defend themselves because they don't know the situation."
Thinking of this, Shelepin could no longer sit still, so he went directly to Brezhnev and expressed his worries frankly, "I don't know if we are sure that most comrades will be on our side now."
"It should be no problem!" Brezhnev was also worried about this. In fact, he had no idea. Khrushchev had been the number one figure for more than ten years and defeated various political opponents. He said
Maybe there are many people who support him, but if so, they will be out of luck.
On the one hand, Khrushchev was determined not to retire, and the KGB also resolutely refused to send Khrushchev to meet Stalin. According to previous examples, the convening of the Central Committee meeting seemed inevitable.
Brezhnev was walking back and forth, but he happened to see Fortseva getting ready to get off work, and he suddenly said in his heart, "Comrade Ekaterina, I have something I hope you can help with."
When Molotov launched an attack, Khrushchev was also at an absolute disadvantage at the level of the Central Presidium. Although they all resolutely defended Khrushchev at the time, some of them spoke softly at that time. It was Furtseva who stood by
Day and night at Moscow Airport, the Central Committee gathered from all over the country and finally overturned the decision of the Central Presidium.
If Khrushchev hopes to make a comeback like this, Furtseva is the person most familiar with this process.
Knowing Brezhnev's purpose, a trace of suspicion flashed in Fortseva's eyes. This suspicion was also caught by Brezhnev, who asked Fortseva to let down her guard, "Ekaterina,
It is our common wish to get the country back on track. You also hope that your son will serve the country in a stable society."
"Of course I hope." Fortseva knew that this was Brezhnev's promise. What she needed to do for this promise was to let the Central Committee members who came from all over the country understand the form as she did seven years ago. "Okay.
, Ilyich, leave this matter to me. As Schulich said, the most difficult thing is Ukraine. The last time he was able to escape unscathed, it was Ukraine's strong support, even though Sherest had made some preparations.
, and it cannot eliminate hidden dangers.”
"Thank you, Comrade Ekaterina." Brezhnev breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You don't have to attend tomorrow's meeting. I hope it won't come to that point, but it will be hard on you if it does."
One night later, Brezhnev finished washing and rushed directly to the Kremlin. Furtseva did not attend this meeting. According to the agreed procedure, Brezhnev spoke again, speaking from an emotional and public perspective.
, indicating that the action was not taken because of personal grudges this time.
"You, Nikita Sergeyevich, understand my attitude towards you. When you were in a difficult situation, I fought honestly, bravely and confidently for you and for the Leninist line. In fact,
I was suffering from myocardial infarction at that time, but even though I was seriously ill, I still gained the strength to fight for you."
"Today I cannot do anything against my conscience. I want to express my opinion in accordance with the requirements of my faith. If you, Nikita Sergeyevich, do not indulge in such things as a hobby of giving orders, self-deception and a strong belief in personal
Bad habits such as being always correct. If you have a little bit of humility, you will not allow the creation of a personality cult for yourself. You like to issue instructions to everyone and on all issues. However, as we all know, it is impossible for any one person to complete it.
Such a task - this is the basis of all errors."
The dialogue this time was still difficult. Khrushchev had encountered a similar scene seven years ago. At the beginning, only Mikoyan was on his side in the entire Central Presidium. After being the First Secretary for so many years, Khrushchev
Xiaofu still showed no respect for his subordinates who once looked down on him, "I must be convinced according to the regulations."
"Okay." Brezhnev agreed, which almost gave Khrushchev a sense of hope.
At the Moscow Airport, Fortseva was in a daze. In 1957, when Malenkov, Kaganovich, and Molotov jointly tried to remove Khrushchev from his post as First Secretary of the Central Committee by simple vote.
At that time, Furtseva used the excuse of going to the bathroom and ran to call the leaders of the powerful department and other Central Committee members in Moscow, calling on them to defend Khrushchev, and persuaded Zhukov to side with her.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Within two days, she airlifted 107 of the 130 Central Committee members to Moscow, finally completely turning the situation around.
She never thought that after many years, she would have to do it again, and this time the purpose was completely opposite. For no reason, she remembered the man's decisive tone, "You must stand by Brezhnev, don't be misunderstood by him."
The face deceives.”
"Comrade Ekaterina." In order to increase Fortseva's weight, KGB Chairman Semichasny came with her this time. He spoke because a special plane had already landed.
Following the faces that came off the plane, Fortseva immediately recognized that it was the Central Committee members of Ukraine who had arrived first, "Let's meet them together."
With the KGB Chairman by her side, Fortseva is far more at ease than she was seven years ago. Starting from this noon, she will be working all night long to receive people who receive orders from Moscow and make wise choices.
.
Fortseva still focused on Ukraine. When Khrushchev returned to Moscow and the sun rose for the third time, Serdyuko, the first vice chairman of the Ukrainian Committee, Olekova, the secretary of the Central Committee, Ivashko,
Xie Nin, First Vice Chairman of the Council of Ministers, came to the Kremlin with Fortseva.
When Fortseva saw Brezhnev, she said everything was fine. The meeting, which included 170 Central Committee members, officially opened. Brezhnev presided over the meeting. Anonymous voting began and more than 100 Central Committee members expressed their approval.
This time Khrushchev did not make a comeback.
Because it was an anonymous vote, Brezhnev did not say anything. He just expressed that he was happy for the maturity of all Central Committee members. "Due to his advanced age and deteriorating health, he will satisfy Comrade Khrushchev's request to remove him."
First Secretary, Member of the Presidium of the Central Committee and Chairman of the Council of Ministers of the USSR.”
Suslov made a speech and elaborated on his views on collective leadership, "Confirming that it is inappropriate to concentrate the duties of First Secretary and Chairman of the Council of Ministers of the USSR in one person."
Mikoyan presided over the meeting to elect a new First Secretary and Chairman of the Council of Ministers. Everyone proposed Brezhnev as a candidate for First Secretary of the Central Committee and recommended the appointment of Kosygin as Chairman of the Council of Ministers. He was the leader of the Khrushchev government.
One of the two first vice-presidents.
Subsequently, "Izvestia" published the news of the Central Committee Plenum and the portrait of the country's new leader, and the news of the change in the Soviet leadership began to spread around the world.
"I don't know if this will affect our negotiations with the Soviet Ministry of Culture on film introduction standards." When the big news came, Alan Wilson was in front of Prime Minister Eden.
The Secretary-General of the Cabinet never changed his expression when faced with the collapse of the Soviet Union. Even when he learned about the great changes in the Soviet Union, he did not express too much concern.
He didn't know anything else. Anyway, Shelepin's group of cadres around forty years old must have miscalculated. If the KGB had not played its role, Khrushchev would not have stepped down. Based on historical analysis, Alan Wilson at this time,
Little did I know that the Culture Czar also played an important role this time around.
"Alan, it seems that Khrushchev's affairs are more important than the negotiations on the introduction of the film." Aiden couldn't help but smile bitterly. The direction of the Cabinet Secretary's attention was really unusual.
"Khrushchev has stepped down, but this negotiation has not yet succeeded, so the latter is more closely related to us." Alan Wilson humbly answered Aiden's question, "Of course, we will make an assessment immediately.
This may take several days."
Facts have proved that everything is either calm or big events are coming one after another. One day later, on the afternoon of October 16, the first atomic bomb independently developed by a certain major country successfully exploded in the northwest, becoming the fifth largest atomic bomb in the world after the United States, the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom, and France.
A country with nuclear weapons. The nuclear club has added one more member.
When the news came that there would be one more assessment plan for Whitehall, Alan Wilson would definitely not be able to get off work on time these days. He suddenly began to recall the days when he worked in Kuala Lumpur until two o'clock in the afternoon.
