USSR 1991

Suddenly, the office fell into a collective silence. The lack of news of Yanayev in Crimea made them feel scared. Some people even speculated that the undercurrent of the Politburo had shown its fangs and put the political struggle on the battlefield. mesa.

When Vladimir was most at a loss, the door of the office opened, and Valery walked in quickly, followed by his secretary.He walked directly in front of the chairman of the Council of Ministers, ignoring the vigilant eyes of Akhromeyev and Yazov, and stood in front of him without fear.

The secretary said to Vladimir with a look of embarrassment, "I'm sorry, Chairman Vladimir, Director Valery said that he has something important to report to you, so I..."

"It's okay, you go out first, I will take care of it here."

After persuading the secretary away, Vladimir closed the door, turned to face Valery, and said, "If you have anything to say, just tell me, Comrade Valery. Although General Secretary Yanayev said that you are absolutely A key piece that cannot be acted rashly, and it is interspersed with the whole plan. But in my eyes, you are just a traitor next to the general secretary, and a spy of the conservatives lurking inside us. Putting aside those arrogant prejudices, I want to know what do you know? Before I call the interrogation experts from the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the KGB, I hope you can explain clearly."

"Are you an enemy or a friend?"

After Vladimir launched an attack, Akhromeyev and Yazov stepped forward subconsciously, preparing to arrest the traitor and prevent the other party from escaping.

Valery raised his hands, signaling to the other party to relax, and he had no malicious intentions, "Don't worry, comrades, I won't run away, and I should know when I get in front of you, which side I choose to stand on."

"I don't know more than you, but General Secretary Yanayev never put himself in danger, because the general secretary ambush two lines in this matter, one is you, and the other is me. It was because of me that he dared to go to Foros Villa with confidence."

Valery put his hands in his pockets, met the surprised eyes of others, and explained, "You guessed it, I am a double agent. In order to know Lukyanov's plan, the general secretary put me next to them. I also know their overall plan a few days earlier than you. The general secretary is now at Foros Villa, rest assured, it is the safest place so far, even safer than the Kremlin."

Akhromeyev interjected, "There is no news of our general secretary now. You tell me he is in the safest place? Comrade Valery, that's not how you joke!"

Yazov is also dissatisfied with Valery's statement, hoping that the other party can give a convincing explanation.

Valery replied very seriously, "Although I don't know why, every chief of the leader's security bureau always thinks that their IQ can control the leader they guard, but in fact they are played around in reverse. Neralov didn't know at all that the people he arranged were all KGB personnel who had been prepared by General Secretary Yanayev. Warden, in fact he is the prisoner locked in the Foros villa! Yanayev just wanted to tie him up and prevent him from absconding."

The exciting news came too fast, and the three of Vladimir couldn't tell which ones were real news and which ones were fake news.

Valery didn't give them time to sort out their thoughts, and continued to tell what he knew, "Now Lukyanov has set up a situation in the White House, just wait for Vladimir to jump in. Rutskoy It is the last pawn in his hands. When there is no way out, they can still hold the White House and negotiate terms with you. When Vladimir stepped into the White House, he never returned."

"What needs to be done now is to ask Commander-in-Chief Akhromeyev to mobilize the Taman Division and the Dzerzhinsky Division to enter downtown Moscow and surround the White House. To force the conservatives to surrender, Lukyanov, in addition to making dangerous moves There is no way back. When he saw the T72 tanks appearing in front of the White House, he should have realized that he would be wiped out."

Count in count.

Yanayev played a big game of chess, counting everyone.Lukyanov thought that he had caught Yanayev's handle and knew his next action plan. In fact, the other party had already secretly guided the other party to figure out his next step, and then made the layout according to the plan.They all thought that they were following the plan, but in fact Yanayev was the mastermind of their plan.

Vladimir understood why Yanayev still maintained a calm attitude at the most critical moment. In fact, their game was calculated, and he didn't even bother to play with these people.To reach the level of the general secretary, they will not be able to match it in a few decades.

Having said that, Vladimir has every reason to believe that Valery is telling the truth. After using the power of the guards, even if they have any conspiracy, before the absolute armed force, they can only be crushed exist.

"Did General Secretary Yanayev say anything before leaving?" Vladimir asked, "According to the character of the General Secretary, he should not leave here without saying anything."

Valery suddenly remembered something, and said, "Yes, the general secretary did say before leaving that if things can't be stopped in the end, Vladimir should make up his mind."

"What resolution?"

Vladimir cheered up, and General Secretary Yanayev considered all the circumstances. If the conservatives are unwilling to come down from the steps, how should Moscow keep its face.

Comrade Valery took a deep breath and relayed Yanayev's last words to Vladimir before leaving Moscow.

"Bombard the White House!"

Chapter 968 Let him die

The cold wind at Cape Sarech makes people tighten their necks. This is a beach where the wind blows most of the time throughout the year. The endless whistling sound seems to uproot Forros Villa, and it keeps beating the two. Floor-to-ceiling windows in bedrooms.Yanayev sat by the bed, he didn't turn on the light, and stared at the dark scenery outside the window in a daze.

There are no less than two figures of guards guarding the corridors on the upper and lower floors of the villa. There are even two KGB agents outside the bedroom door. There is a team of fully armed KGB troops waiting in the open space under the balcony. Yanayev Even with wings, it is difficult to fly out from here.Since I can't fly out, I simply stay here honestly and wait until the coup is over before going back.

He doesn't care anyway.

In all fairness, if the previous Beslan hostage incident and the pacification of the Chechen rebellion were the test questions, then solving the coup crisis would be Comrade Vladimir's graduation exam. Future leaders do it.Only by resolving this crisis perfectly, will Vladimir's reputation and status reach a truly unshakable level.

"I don't know when this wind will hang. If it goes according to the plan, Moscow should now almost enter the final exciting scene."

A little spark ignited in the darkness, Yanayev lit the cigarette on the table, took a deep breath, and puffed out the cloud, he said to himself, "It's okay for Lukyanov, too, and Genie in the living room The same is true for Raloff, it’s just a problem of this test. They are not a real crisis, the crisis is always on the other side of the Atlantic, the Americans are still eyeing us, and Western Europe has never let go of their rivalry. Blackmail. These are the last few moves I made, but for Vladimir, this is just the beginning. In another year or two, he will become a shining star in Soviet politics, redirecting The leader of the Soviet people moving forward. Become the real Emperor Pu." This coup under his control can be regarded as a graduation exam question for the other party.

The bedroom door was suddenly opened, and someone turned on the light in the room in the dark.The bright light made Yanayev squint his eyes, and he saw Generalov standing in front of him, his face pale.

He finally came.

Yanayev leaned against the wall with a calm expression. He asked slowly, "What's the matter? Comrade Gneralov, it seems that something terrible is happening to you? Let me guess, is it Moscow?" There has been a major change over there, and the armored forces are gathering in the direction of downtown Moscow?"

Gnieralov was short of breath. He tried his best to stabilize his emotions and said word by word, "The armored units of the Taman Division and the Dzerzhinsky Division are being mobilized and headed for downtown Moscow...I believe this is absolutely true. Not a masterpiece of conservatives, General Secretary Yanayev, did you know from the beginning that we would choose to do it today?"

"Let me teach you a lesson, Comrade Generalov."

Yanayev stubbed out the cigarette butt in the ashtray, turned his head and said to Comrade Gneralov behind him, "Never be fooled by superficial illusions. When you think what you see is the truth, it is actually just the truth." A shameless lie. Do you really think that I randomly put the news of the April [-]nd attack in the office drawer, and then Comrade Valery discovered it? An April Fool's Day joke deceived all of you Go round and round. You have comrades like Lukyanov, and I am not at all surprised that the conservatives are completely wiped out."

"The call from the White House can't be reached, it must be a second-hand action arranged by you?"

Cold sweat dripped from Generalov's forehead. From the state of being busy all the time to receiving the news of the transfer of the armored troops, he knew very well that there must be some ulterior secrets going on behind this.

"Signal jamming, including cutting off the White House's telephone communications, is nothing special, it's just to prevent people who shouldn't escape from getting out of the incident."

Gnieralov stepped forward a few steps, and stood in front of Yanayev, "Did you deliberately arrange to tear up your face at the ministerial meeting and meet with each other?"

"Yes, it's obvious that you've all lost your temper and been fooled. Actually, if it goes according to the original plan, I will still have a little headache because I don't know your exact date. You are the ones who betrayed you. You have to be panicked. killed you."

Gnieralov clenched his fists, and a bad feeling slowly came to his mind. General Secretary Yanayev was far from being as simple as he imagined. He felt that he had fallen into a trap set by others, and He walked along the bait without even noticing it.

"Comrade Gneyralov, what you saw was deliberately arranged by me to arouse your nervousness. It forced you to take risky actions in advance. It seems that this plan has been very successful. You will desperately The well-arranged actions in advance have exposed flaws full of loopholes, and these loopholes will make all your previous efforts go in vain."

Generalov's heart sank, and he continued to press, "Did you know that these were all scams from the beginning? Then why did you get involved?"

Yanayev raised his head and looked at the lights above his head. He said slowly, "Why? Of course it is to catch you all. I never care about the chess pieces on the table, no matter how many there are, I can take them down. The only thing I care about is people who hide in the dark and have never acted. These are the serious problems. I can suppress them when I am still the general secretary of the Soviet. After I abdicate, in case Comrade Vladimir cannot suppress them Stop them and it could end up being a repeat of what happened in 1991."

"So you set up a bureau so painstakingly, just to attract everyone?"

Gnieralov's face was ashen. He finally saw the opponent's means. When a wily and wise man faced the barbaric and ignorant Slavs, his thoughts and knowledge were his spear and shield.

Can't count, can't count at all.I used to laugh at the stupidity of Washington when I stood beside the general secretary, but now it seems that their situation is even more miserable than that of Washington.

"Bring everyone out, take everyone down, purge them out of the party. I've never been a big fan of advocating a struggle with a bottom line. When it comes to critical issues, people who are kicked out can never come back. There is no reprieve. It has been implemented for two years, and there is nothing that can be regarded as a gold medal for avoiding death by identity. Members of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union have committed crimes, and they will also be punished by the law. Those who think this is a gold medal for avoiding death must know one thing, the general secretary will let them If he dies, he must die!"

Yanayev's last words scared Generalov out of his mind. No one can stop the general secretary who wants to kill.

Fortunately, Yanayev is now unarmed, and fortunately, he has sealed off the Foros Villa.

He is his own prisoner, no matter how well he uses his tactics, it is useless now.Generalov was in absolute control of the situation, and in order to humiliate the general secretary's secrets, he asked one last question.

"The last question is also a question that I have never understood. General Secretary Yanayev, why did you automatically and consciously fall into this trap? Even if Lukyanov failed, I can escape away from Moscow. Crimea Going down is Turkey, and other Eastern European countries, you can't catch me at all!"

This is his mockery of the general secretary. No matter how thoughtful the other party is, he still can't escape being calculated.

However, Yanayev gave an answer that was completely opposite to what he expected.

"Why are you so sure that I have stepped into your trap? It wasn't me who fell into the trap, but you, Comrade Generalov. Do you really think that these three KGB agents are loyal to you? You Have you never suspected that everything around you was arranged by me? From the very beginning, I arranged these people, and you just borrowed them."

"You think you're the warden of this prison? Sorry, I am."
