USSR 1991

If I insisted on doing this just now, the next situation will be difficult to end.

"Everything...is going according to the previous plan...Poland, there is no request."

Gerila replied with a wry smile. If he thought that Kwasniewski's arrogance stemmed from ignorance, then his almost miscalculation was an underestimation of the Soviet Union's bottom line.

Romania has become a political arena that Yanayev is bound to win. Poland was actually pushed to the table by Western countries headed by the United States and used as a knife by others. After this negotiation, Grela also woke up to the NATO gang Bastards are not a good thing.They are pushing Poland into the fire pit!

Kwasniewski thought that he had learned the lesson of Poland blindly following the Western countries before, and took advantage of the Romanian battlefield, but it was still a game between the great powers.

"Go back and advise your president that it is not too late for Poland to turn around."

Before leaving, Yanayev turned around and stood at the door, leaving the other party with a mysterious figure. His voice echoed in the conference room, sounding like ghosts everywhere, "NATO wants you As pawns, as cannon fodder, German armaments, American financial support, after all, Western political powers are unwilling to confront the Soviet Union head-on. In order to let a small European country stand up and block our progress, they specially created a beautiful story. Lies. Joining NATO, joining the EU, getting loans from the World Bank Group? Think about it, these good promises, don’t you need to pay the price in your blood? It’s so naive. Even if you win the war in the end, Will they deliver on a dead letter promise?"

He still endured that stupid sentence and didn't say it.

The originally bustling conference room returned to its deserted posture, and most people walked out of the door nervously, feeling relieved that they finally didn't have to stay in that high-pressure atmosphere any longer.

Although Gerila, who was walking in the front, smiled, the background looked a little lonely.Representatives of the Kremlin deliberately distanced themselves from him.

Gerila didn't recover from the trance until she walked out of the Kremlin.

He dialed the phone number of the president's office, and the first priority was to inform Kwasniewski of the sad news.

"Withdraw? Are you kidding me?"

The Polish president raised his tone a lot. He could not tolerate such a result, "We have finally achieved a critical breakthrough in Poland. Why are we withdrawing our troops now? Please tell Yanayev and the Soviets that Poland will never take a step back. !"

"Listen to me, Your Excellency."

Kovasinevski was taken aback by Gerila's sudden outburst, but he calmed down and didn't speak. He tolerated the other party's unreasonableness and wanted to hear his opinions.

"We really can't fight Romania anymore. If we continue to fight, Poland will lose everything...Although we want to intervene in Romania and control the oil pipeline, but... Behind this is the West is encouraging Poland to be cannon fodder Ah! We helped them take Romania, and after that? Will they keep their promises? All we have is a dead letter!"

"Hmm..." Kwasniewski's reply was very flat, and he didn't even take it seriously.

Greira was stunned, he suddenly realized something, his expression became tense, he clenched the mobile phone with both hands and lowered his voice, "Could it be that the President knew the true purpose of NATO early on, but he still did it? Are you really aiming to join the EU and get closer to the West?"

"President Kwasniewski, you are playing with fire!"

Gerila suddenly became angry. A president who is betting the fate and future of the entire country on a high-risk situation is simply messing around.

"Counselor Greilla, I know what you're going to say."

Kwasniewski, who was far away in the office in Warsaw, folded his feet on the table, sat down with his back against the chair, and answered him slowly, "Whether the fate of Poland or the interests of the people is good, I am I am trying to find a way out for this country. Do you think that Poland is a bright future? The economy is depressed, social sentiment is generally dissatisfied, and war can divert everyone's attention. Besides, we have the United States and Germany behind us. Poland will have new development opportunities in this war! This is a high-risk gamble, and you are right, but it is also a high-return income!"

Grella rested her forehead, her expression gloomy.He seemed to be watching a political clown directing and performing a funny comedy.However, thinking of Yanayev's words, he couldn't laugh at all.This is simply a joke about the fate and future of the country.Although there have been a few political idiots in Eastern European countries, there has never been such a desperate gambler.And gamblers are more prodigal and more terrifying than idiots!

"Since Yanayev promised us to withdraw our troops in the east, we will no longer obstruct the Polish army's actions, so we just agree."

Kwasniewski still looks indifferent. His unscrupulousness comes from the new agreement signed with NATO a few days ago. They are willing to provide a batch of Leopard 2 tanks or a considerable number of anti-tank missiles to slow down the Bucharest armored forces. heavy artillery fire.

"The rest, come back slowly, don't worry. Bucharest can't support the end. The Polish army, hehe, can't deal with a Soviet Union, but it is more than enough to deal with Romania. When Bucharest is captured, I want to see Yanaye What else can I say?"

Obsessed!

Grella hung up the phone angrily. He turned his head to the side and said to the driver, "Drive, go to the Polish embassy immediately! Hurry up!"

After the car started and left the Kremlin, he was still clenching his fists, his chest was heaving violently because of the anger just now, and taking a deep breath was not enough to relieve the grief and anger in his heart at this moment.

Punching hard on the leather sofa, Gerilla yelled, "You idiot! You'll pay the price!"

9Chapter 16 He deserves it too?

The problem of Poland came to an end for the time being, and the besieged Secret Legion was finally relieved.

The artillery fire of the Polish army gradually weakened until it disappeared.After nearly three weeks of siege, the desperate troops on hold saw the last glimmer of light.The Polish army stopped its violent attack and retreated in a planned way.At this time they also received a telegram from Moscow telling them that the crisis was over.The Soviet Union pushed back the Polish attack at the negotiating table and bought them time to evacuate.

It is not allowed to directly attack the Polish army, and it is not allowed to cause any conflicts. This is an order issued by Yanayev.He just wanted to pour a basin of cold water on Voinea's head, so that the agent who was dazzled by the victory would calm down and figure out his situation.

It was the Soviet Union that supported them. If Voinea thought of other ambitions, Yanayev could bring him down from Romania in a matter of minutes.It's just that the civil war is still stalemate, and Moscow doesn't want to make trouble.Otherwise, he can still secure the position of President of Bucharest?

After the civil war is over, it is time to really test the opponent's loyalty.

The tranquility outside the general secretary's office was broken by the rushing sound of leather shoes. The chairman of the ministerial council had a serious expression. Passers-by only saw his indifferent expression, but could not see his anxiety.

He came to Yanayev's office and had informed Assistant Valery that he would meet with Comrade General Secretary immediately.

As soon as Yanayev looked up, he saw Comrade Vladimir entering the door hurriedly.

"what happened?"

Yanayev's expression was calm, but he was ready to accept the bad news.Generally, Vladimir would not look for him. He would not appear in front of the office with his brows furrowed until he encountered a situation that was difficult to solve.

"What's the matter? It's rare to see you with such a flustered look. Tell me what's going on slowly." Yanayev asked the other party to sit down first, and then explained the situation clearly.

"The problem is very bad now. There is a major situation in Ukraine. The Southern Machinery Manufacturing Plant...has a workers' strike, and it affects a wide range. Now it may affect our Far East relocation plan."

Yanayev pursed his lips and did not speak. After a while, he said, "When did this happen?"

"Just last night, it was said that there was no agreement on certain agreements, and the workers were not satisfied with some of the conditions proposed. Originally, Ukraine wanted to suppress this matter forcibly, but unexpectedly, the workers on strike and the Ministry of Internal Affairs There was a conflict with the police, which led to further escalation of the conflict. General Secretary Yanayev...if it is not handled properly, it will have an immeasurable impact on the Far East Heavy Industry plan. This is what I am most worried about."

It is not just Poland that is causing Yanayev a headache now. He has not yet taken a breath, and new situations have emerged in Ukraine.Yanayev put down the pen in his hand, stared at the telegram submitted by Comrade Vladimir, and while reading the short message on it, he said to himself, "Those old guys have finally started to challenge me. ?"

Vladimir was a little overwhelmed, he hadn't understood what Yanayev was talking about.

Yanayev did not continue to dwell on this issue. He raised his head and asked, "Comrade Vladimir, what do you think of this workers' strike?"

"Huh?" Vladimir felt a little strange. Why didn't he ask Ukraine's first secretary Secherbitsky about this question first. The other party should be more aware of the current situation than himself.

"It's okay. If you have any questions, you can ask them. I want to hear your opinion before making a decision."

The general secretary didn't seem anxious about the situation in Ukraine, and he even wanted to hear the other party's opinion with great interest.

"Well...it's hard to say what's going on now. Part of the outbreak of this incident may be some misunderstanding caused by Ukraine's inadequate propaganda. Of course, it can't be ruled out that there may be some...other factors."

Speaking of this, Vladimir raised his head and glanced at the general secretary sitting on the seat. The other party showed a very interested look, and he continued after confirming that his words did not arouse the other party's disgust, "What happened like this Shecherbycki did not report the incident immediately, but instead wanted to use the police from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to suppress the whole incident. As far as I know, the workers did not show any violence at the beginning. It didn’t start until after Erbitsky’s suppression of the riots. It doesn’t seem to be suppressing the contradictions, but intensifying them...until all the contradictions erupt...hehe..."

"Are they instructed by others? Or do they have other plans?"

Yanayev did not give a direct answer. He said slowly, "However, it is unclear what the situation is now. It can only be said that this is one of the possibilities. Ukraine is the stronghold of conservatives. A mistake. Therefore, the heavy industry transfer plan was initially blocked, and if Sechelbitski wanted to plan, this trick was also expected."

"what?"

Even Vladimir was a little dazed, and didn't expect that the situation in Ukraine was also within Yanayev's calculations. How far has the struggle between Yanayev and the conservatives reached?

"Could it be that the general secretary had long expected that there would be accidents that would disrupt Ukraine's industrial foundation?"

Yanayev shook his head.
