Semichasny is no longer the same demeanor as he was twenty years ago. Compared with the KGB Chairman who was in his thirties at the time, this important figure in the Shelepin Group arrived in Kalinin City without anyone noticing, and then met the unknown person at the beginning.
Fortseva is considered a close friend, but cannot be called an enemy.
Semichasny was a KGB chairman with a low sense of presence. This was because he was too young at the time. He had just turned thirty-five and became the head of the most powerful department. He had to keep a low profile, but this performance did not make him
Brezhnev let it go.
Of course, it is also because of his youth. Semichasny is not too old even now, and he seems to be more energetic than Ligachev.
"Katyusha, you want a coup?" After hearing Furtseva's purpose, Semichasny was shocked. If he remembered correctly, Furtseva should have left the Central Committee for many years, and she had already retired.
Are you still thinking about a coup? Who listens to you?
"Vladimir, you were the youngest department head in the country at the time." Fortseva replied noncommittally, "Actually, you didn't have a high sense of presence at the beginning because you were trying to avoid Brezhnev's attention. In fact, our responses were similar.
, the reason why the results are different, I have to mention one of my weaknesses, which can also become an advantage at critical moments, I am a woman."
The Soviet Union was very equal, but it would not go out of its way to prove equality, so Fortseva had been at the top of the Soviet Union for more than 20 years without causing trouble, but she certainly could not be the number one figure.
It is also because of her gender protection that her children have come step by step to today, and they are about to start participating in the coup.
"But you have retired, who can you find to help?" Semichasny shook his head. From Fortseva's mouth, he knew that the coup that had gathered almost all the heads of important departments had begun. With such a strong lineup, how could it be possible?
There is room for Fortseva to perform.
"Why not?" Fortseva was very high-spirited at this time and did not appear to be old-fashioned at all. She said word by word, "Now I am going to carry out the third coup in my life."
Semichasny thought that the cultural tsar was crazy, but in fact Semichasny had been away from the Central Committee for too long, and he thought that the Communist Party of the Soviet Union was an all-conquering and combat-effective organization. But he spoke to Alexeyev again.
Fortseva knew that the members of the Emergency Committee were drunk on the first day, and she was already disappointed with the team that was responsible for the most powerful coup in history.
"What, they were very drunk?" Semichasny looked shocked. The KGB has become like this now. He didn't know that Kryuchkov was not among the drinkers.
But this incident gave Semichasny a very bad impression. If the members of the emergency committee were like this, it would be really hard to say.
Fortseva asked if she still had contact with friends in Semichasny. The latter nodded and said, of course, there were, including the then First Secretary of Moscow Yegorychev, the Second Secretary of Lithuania Harazov, the oil industry
Minister Tikunov, TASS President Meshatsev, First Secretary of Azerbaijan Kochemasov, Chairman of Soviet Radio Goryunov, First Secretary of the Leningrad Municipal Party Committee Tolskykov, etc.
"Look, you guys were actually strong enough back then. Didn't you lose to Brezhnev in the end? And now, looking at the positions of Yanayev and the others, you feel that they will definitely succeed?"
Fortseva spoke with a slight smile. She did not want to laugh at these young men of the year. In fact, she gave everyone a chance, "I am different from you. I have a son that I am proud of."
As for the fact that there is a man of the same status as her husband who is always available to help, Semichasny does not need to know. He only needs to know that the son of the cultural tsar is now in a position to be won over.
Semichasny opened his mouth. The top brass of the KGB and the top leaders of the Moscow security department were certainly worth winning over. If Alexeev did not obey orders, Kryuchkov really had no choice.
In a daze, the youngest KGB chairman at the time recalled the two coups in Furtseva's life. During the first coup, Furtseva was guarding the Moscow airport and persuaded the committee members one by one to support Khrushchev.
The second time was to cut off Khrushchev's supporters. It seems that the cultural czar has such a believable charm.
"Don't forget, Kalinin City is the logistics base of the Moscow Military Region. Do you know the division of labor of the Kalinin Vodka Group?" Fortseva introduced confidently, "In fact, these workers are divided according to the establishment, one production line
We were all comrades in the same army. The squad leader was the team leader, the company commander was the section leader, and the battalion commander was the production director."
Kalinin Vodka did not disband the retired Soviet troops stationed in Germany. It just changed its name to carry out production work. The people were still the same, but they did not have weapons for the time being.
Semichasny still gave Fortseva a suggestion. Podgorny’s supporters don’t need to look for it. As the top leader in Ukraine, Selest played an irreplaceable role in the rise of local nationalism. Looking for Xie
The number of people Erbicki promoted was pretty much the same.
"So that's it." Fortseva nodded. She really didn't know the inside story of the struggle between Brezhnev and Podgorny.
Later, Selest loved Ukraine and the Ukrainian language more than other Kiev politicians. Once he went to a state and noticed a slogan "Complete the project one month ahead of schedule." He pointed out dissatisfiedly: "The slogan is written in Russian
, but the people working here are obviously Ukrainians.”
Moscow is wary of such moves, which it sees as signs of nationalism and separatism. Sherest relies on a segment of Ukraine's intelligentsia who often speak bitterly of their own nation's plight and place blame.
For Russia.
If Fortseva supports the Khitans, then these intellectuals in the field of Ukrainian culture are useful. If she supports the Emergency Reloading Committee, then these people cannot be approached.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "You will know then." Fortseva did not say her purpose. Alexeyev's position is to be won over.
Status, if the emergency committee acts vigorously and resolutely, there will definitely be nothing to say, but judging from what happened on the first day, we cannot become cannon fodder with these idiots.
The mother and son agreed on this, the third coup that Fortseva had experienced in her life, and they wanted to be the person who would not be able to control their destiny.
After a long phone call and anticipating various emergencies, the mother and son decided to see the emergency committee's ability to act. If the joke continued, they would side with the Russian president.
Alexeyev couldn't bear to look at such a precious thing like time being wasted by these members of the emergency equipment committee. Onlookers were so angry, especially Defense Minister Yazov and KGB Chairman Kryuchkov.
He said that although the two knew that this was not a trivial matter, they were not leaders of the executive branch. To be honest, leaders of the executive branch were needed to come forward. Vice President Yazov and Prime Minister Pavlov could be such people.
No way.
During the precious time, Yazov issued an appeal to the Soviet Communist Party members in the army to strengthen unity and defend the motherland in the Ministry of Defense. This appeal directly awakened Yakovlev.
The former Propaganda Minister, now the presidential adviser, directly summoned reporters from Izvestia, accused the conservatives of the CPSU of wanting a coup, and announced on the spot that he would withdraw from the CPSU.
Alan Wilson, who had been holding back from contacting Moscow, stared at any news from Moscow almost every day. When he heard Yakovlev's public remarks, he glanced at the time and saw that it was only August 16th. He took a deep breath.
I breathed a sigh of relief, it was really a joke.
The secret planning of a coup group with the strongest lineup in history can even be seen by a person who is now only an adviser to the president. This shows the level of the level of these members.
This appeal from the Ministry of National Defense made Kryuchkov unable to sit still. At this moment, he had a feeling that the clown was himself. He had just felt that even if the heads of several administrative departments were unreliable, as long as he and himself
Azov has no problem, just let Azov and the others stand.
But he didn't expect that the military chief would publicly reveal all their intentions in an open letter before taking action. The angry Kryuchkov went directly to Yazov and asked why Yazov didn't discuss the open letter with him.
I don’t think there’s anything wrong with this. “Let the people understand our purpose.”
"What a nonsense. We could have done it and explained it later." Kryuchkov took a deep breath. He didn't expect the Ministry of Defense to be so naive.
Yakovlev's actions directly caused disagreements in the emergency committee, and for a while there were voices that still wanted to act rashly.
Fortunately, Yanayev is still on the side of the heads of the two powerful departments. It is too late to retreat now. August 20 is the day when the new alliance treaty is signed, so we must go ahead no matter what.
Kryuchkov opened his mouth to other members and said, "Our established plan is to use the excuse that someone wants to launch an armed uprising to take control of the TV station headquarters, the train station and the White House where the congressmen work. I also found a blacklist,
Those of us on the blacklist, government officials and our families will be executed."
"It's not enough to execute them," Yanayev said immediately after hearing this. He knew that this was the reason for the action, but the purpose of killing people from the beginning would intensify the current situation in the Soviet Union.
Kryuchkov looked at Yanayev silently, and then said after a while, "This is just a reason for action, it does not mean that we really want to kill people."
In the end, everyone accepted the reason for the armed uprising. At this time, the Cultural Czar in Kalinin City felt a force of cause and effect, as if someone was talking about her. Kryuchkov would not have thought that someone was really planning it.
