Soviet Union 1991

Lukyanov was in a bad mood. After a night of planning and discussion last night, he finally worked out a relatively feasible plan. Today he went to work with dark circles under his eyes and spent a sleepy morning with the dark circles under his eyes. , finally got through the most painful moment. Although I kept yawning, I finally regained my energy in the afternoon and was able to host a work meeting.

Unfortunately, the meeting was abruptly interrupted by a phone call in the middle of the meeting. The other party refused to reveal his name, and even told alarmingly about important secrets. Lukyanov answered the phone completely holding back his anger.

But the voice on the other end of the phone made him feel sleepy.

"What's wrong?"

"Something happened. Yanayev is preparing to return to Moscow on April 2nd. He plans to arrest all senior members of the Moscow Political Bureau. He wants to arrest all conservative members before us. I don't know what plan you are planning. , but if you want to take action, you must act immediately, otherwise everyone will wait to be caught by him!"

Hearing a familiar voice, Lukyanov understood that it was the chess piece placed next to the General Secretary who began to report information from Moscow. He waved his hand and asked the secretary to close the door and go out, then lowered his voice and asked in a low voice, "What's going on? Why did this happen suddenly?"

"When I was helping the General Secretary clean up his office today, I found a piece of material about the secret plan behind their arrest. Although General Secretary Yanayev ostensibly took a week off, he is preparing to return to Moscow on April 2 to hold a meeting An emergency meeting must be attended by all Moscow’s top leaders, and then all the conservative elders present must be arrested. You think it is done perfectly, but in fact others are carrying out the same plan!”

Lukyanov's expression changed instantly after hearing what was explained on the other end of the phone. It seemed that the top brass of the Politburo knew something, and everyone knew what would happen if he offended Yanayev, and they wouldn't believe it even if they were beaten to death. It was the biggest joke that someone could turn around a perfect plan and conquer an army.

His chest was rising and falling, trying hard to calm down. Only then can you think about your next move. He glanced at the calendar on the wall. There were only three days left before Yanayev took action. If there was no news, they would be the ones who would be dismissed from their posts and sent to the Far East in three days.

It's better to give it a try than die in the cold ice and snow.

"I understand, and proper arrangements will be made. Comrade Valery continues to lurk beside the General Secretary. We already have a detailed plan ready to take action... You just need to provide us with the most accurate information and cooperate with our action plan. "

Lukyanov expressed his gratitude for the role played by this chess piece at the critical moment, but the other party shook his head with a wry smile and told him the bad news, "There is no chance. The general secretary has left the office today. He asked me Arrange the work in the Kremlin, I'm afraid the other party has already thought of a solution, but he just didn't tell me clearly. If I were you, no matter whether the plan is complete or not, I need to take action in advance. If you delay it any longer, it will only hurt him. favorable."

Valery guessed that Yanayev's action must have been unexpected, because no one was mentally prepared for the sudden incident, and it was even less likely that Lukyanov would have learned the news in advance.

"I understand, Comrade Valery, be careful about your identity. You must not expose it."

"You... take care of yourself."

After speaking, Lukyanov hung up the phone. He sat quietly on the sofa and thought about the problem. He didn't want to deal with the messy meeting issues for the time being, and he was not in the mood to worry about any meetings. He now focused on Yanayev.

Lukyanov recalled a series of previous actions, and the more he thought about it, the more he became afraid. He realized that Yanayev had made up a wide net that included all the people. They were the lucky ones who occasionally peeked into the loopholes and escaped with the help of this crisis.

I'm afraid... the Foros Villa vacation plan was just an excuse he made up. In fact, he wanted to catch all the conservative members before they recovered. The most likely thing is that Yanayev has noticed the secret plan behind it and is preparing to launch a surprise attack first to cut off their retreat.

The war was in danger, and now Lukyanov had no choice but to retreat. When that day came, his fate would be to be exiled to Siberia and freeze to death in front of a kerosene lamp in a mine on a snowy night.

Thinking of these, I feel scared and have a headache.

"No, I must inform Comrade Genelalov to take action in advance and not to sit still and wait for death."

He picked up the phone that he had just hung up and dialed a number that only Genelalov and himself knew. Not long after, the other party also answered the phone anxiously and said in an anxious tone, "Comrade Lukyanov, I just have something important to report to you."

Lukyanov tried his best to calm his tone and said calmly, "Me too, let me say it first. Yanayev has noticed our actions, so we must act before him. If we are not prepared, Bei The fate of Leah and Gorbachev is our fate. Today, the Kremlin's informant got Yanayev's latest action plan. He will take action in advance on April 2 and kill all the conservatives in one fell swoop. Take it!”

Genelalov took a deep breath. What Yanayev told him before proved that his hunch was correct, so he confessed to Lukyanov, "General Secretary Yanayev asked to change his itinerary plan." , and when I formulated the security plan according to the new plan, I knew that something was wrong Something is wrong. It seems that Comrade Lukyanov is right. Yanayev has noticed something. He wants to destroy them all before we come to our senses. It turns out that Black Sea has already noticed our intention. Vacation is a game within a game, and he still has a backhand to deal with us.”

They are all interconnected and airtight. If they had not obtained the information, no one would have been able to see through this chain of tricks.

Lukyanov clenched his fists and said slowly, "Unfortunately, we have also noticed their intentions. Now it depends on who takes action first. If you take action first, you will have the advantage. Yanayev will seize the opportunity on April 2nd." Let’s take action on April 1st before they recover.”

"But the coup is ahead of schedule, so the arrangements and preparations may have to be changed."

The change of date is the most taboo point, which means that Genelalov has to change many details. Finally, make sure everything is safe. It is equivalent to redesigning a new game.

"Including Alpha's team, which needs to move in advance, and the personnel arrangement of the airborne troops, this is even... worse. We don't have much time left. We must deal with these things as soon as possible. Otherwise, April 1st will be too late to prepare. "

Genelalov took a deep breath, feeling both grateful to have survived the disaster and trembling with fear. If it hadn't been for the informant's notification, he would have had to step down from his post after the Central Committee meeting in a few days. Went to dig coal in a coal mine.

"From now on, we will try to reduce contact as much as possible. Prepare everything before April 1st, which is the day after tomorrow, and act separately. I will control Yanayev at the Foros holiday villa and put him under house arrest. You will get Vlad in Moscow. Kimil. We will report separately after the completion. It is also risky, but we have no choice."

Before the call ended, Genelalov emphasized again, "Be careful, Comrade Lukyanov. I always have an ominous premonition that something bad may happen. No one knows whether he will have anything." Backup plan."

"I see."

Lukyanov hung up the phone with a straight face. The change in plans frightened him, and a fear of losing control swept over him.

"It seems that these two days are not destined to be peaceful and quiet."

The political undercurrent is surging, coming like a tidal wave and swallowing everything. Lukyanov put down the phone, looked at the walls of the eye-catching red building, and narrowed his eyes. His hands were shaking uneasily, trying to calm down the waves in his heart. He comforted himself and said, "After April 1st, everything will be fine."

"We'll be done soon."

"It will all be over."
