Chapter 660: The Victim Is in Good Condition (Part 2)

The aftermath of this incident was far more intense than imagined.

First of all, the successor who won the election was removed directly before he could take office. So who will lead the Soviet Union next?

Regarding this issue, the United States did have something to say, but when they opened their mouths, they found that their house collapsed.

Perhaps most people have not forgotten that the workers' and peasants' movement in Mexico is still in full swing. With Superman filling the gap in force, this is not as simple as one plus one equals two. It is entirely a quantitative change that leads to a qualitative change.

The red wave broke out from Sinaloa and soon swept across the entire west coast of the Pacific. Even some areas of California were affected. After all, the treatment of farmers here was not good.

Just as the bald eagle opened its beak and was about to hoot, it found that its gorgeous and beautiful feathers were on fire. Some words were unsatisfactory, but if the fire was not extinguished, its tail would be burned away.

Human beings always like to create all kinds of unsolvable problems for themselves, but there are many solutions. For example, who should be saved first when mom or wife fall into the water? Did the trolley kill one person or five people? Which should you save your head or your butt first?

Logically speaking, the head is more important. Once the head is gone, the person is completely dead. As long as the head of the red giant can be chopped off, no matter how small a spark is, there is nothing to be afraid of. At least this is what Congress thinks. of.

But then again, the Soviet Union is now on its deathbed, and Moscow is full of all kinds of double-dealers and walleyes. Even if the United States doesn't push it, it will collapse sooner or later.

However, the Red Wave in Mexico is huge, and the revolution is very young and very hot. If it cannot be extinguished and really grows up, wouldn't it be another young Soviet?

I'm standing in front of you, and you see that I look a lot like before. At least when the gentlemen on Capitol Hill think about the past, their legs can no longer move, they can no longer breathe, and people have to go to the emergency room.

This group of Americans who came from the Cold War know very well how fierce the flames that were ignited in the Far East were. Countless of them are thankful that, fortunately, that land is far away from the mainland of the United States.

Otherwise, no one knows whether this cold war will become a hot war that will destroy the world. Distance not only produces beauty, but also produces peace.

Judging from the influence of this red wave, once the time is right, the giant bear will die, but that is by no means the end. The blazing red heart will come all the way from Moscow and beat again in Mexico City.

The old giant bear will be reborn as a soaring eagle, and there can only be one sky overlord in the entire America.

What are the geographical advantages of South America compared to the Far East? At least Congress knows that those thousands of miles of fertile plains, once they belong to the people again, will be enough to nurture a beast stronger than the Soviet Union.

After thinking about this, the men in Congress tearfully decided to save their butts first.

If the Soviet Union is really reborn, not to mention the tail feathers, even the chicken legs will have to be torn apart and gnawed alive.

They are destined to have no choice. While devoting all their energy to suppressing the Mexican movement, they also interfere with Moscow. They can only choose the lesser of two evils. If Moscow is left there, it is destined to slowly rot. It is better to deal with Mexico first.

After the decision was made, almost no one had any objections. Compared with the political game far away, the fire at the doorstep was more important.

However, the withdrawal of the United States did not make the situation in Moscow better. The successor who had already won suddenly died. What they lost was not one candidate, but many.

If the United States is the first suspect in assassinating the supreme leader of the Soviet Union, then the other candidates are the second suspect.

This was also the focus of public relations in the United States before. They claimed that it was done by other candidates who wanted to compete for power. The domestic people were not without doubts about this.

In this case, the existing candidates must avoid suspicion for this. Whoever takes office will have to bear the notoriety of assassinating his predecessor.

More importantly, this assassination put all the candidates in disbelief. If Americans dare to assassinate one, they dare to kill the second. You can be a puppet, but you have to make money, and you can make money, but you have to spend your life.

In essence, this incident actually created an atmosphere of distrust. The CIA no longer trusts the democrats they developed, and these people no longer trust the United States. Everyone is trembling, fearing that the other party will stab them in the back. .

Since the existing candidates are no longer good, we can only re-select them. Who has the right to select them? This has to mention one person, that is Gromyko, a Soviet veteran who was a diplomat.

He spent almost all his life in the Cold War, so he formed a special set of Cold War thinking. He believed that the stalemate with the United States was dangerous and tiring. This was also the consensus of the Soviet top brass at the time.

They hope that the successor can ease relations with the United States, be tolerant at home, and appease the radical sentiments of local hardliners. This is why the reform lines proposed by the previous successors are all conservative.

If things don't change, the new batch of candidates will still be conservatives, but the problem now is that the United States took action first.

The United States put a knife on everyone's neck, and that shot seemed to tell all the top leaders of the Soviet Union that I have no intention of easing relations with you, because I can kill any of you at any time.

The inertia of the Cold War is very strong. Once one side becomes tough, the other side will never give in. Moreover, no one knows who will fall down when the next gun is fired.

In this case, they have to hope that the candidate can be tough, at least to deter the United States and make it dare not act so arbitrarily again. The successor must at least be able to protect their safety.

Once the route begins to deviate, the impact is very large. First of all, the requirements for the candidate have changed. Appeasement, closeness to the people, and willingness to give up power are no longer the first conditions. On the contrary, being able to grasp power, being tough, motivated, and having appeal are the top priorities.

As we all know, the easiest way to transfer contradictions is to establish external enemies. The United States has used this trick countless times. This time, although the Soviet Union did not use it intentionally, the effect was unexpectedly good.

The people no longer care about some of the claims made by local radicals. They want to see a leader who can face the United States toughly and make them pay for their arrogant behavior.

At this time, a candidate who had long been excluded from the candidates entered the vision of the top leaders, that is, Vasilyevich, who had just returned to Moscow after his vacation.

In fact, he was originally the strongest competitor for the position of successor, but because he had previously excluded dissidents and united with the party to fight against dissidents, he was far less friendly than Gorbachev, so the plenary session was held before he returned and the winner was elected.

Now, because the successor was assassinated, the candidates who participated in the meeting with him were suspected and had to avoid suspicion, and this airborne party who had never participated in the meeting from beginning to end, went out for vacation early, and did not care about worldly affairs, became the best candidate.

So, as soon as Vasilyevich landed in Moscow, he was knocked unconscious by a huge pie in the sky. In simple terms, the person we originally selected died, and now we all have high hopes for you, so why don’t you be the supreme leader.

Originally, according to the current situation, this candidate must be approved by the United States, but now the United States is on fire and has no time to care about Moscow.

Some people wanted to intervene, but Vasilyevich's timing of airborne was too good. He was simply the son of God, and they didn't have any chance to push their own people to the top.

Just like that, after the aftermath fermented for a week, the position of the Soviet leader changed again. Four leaders were replaced in five years. Everyone was tortured and exhausted. Their requirement for the new leader was to live well and not die.

After the situation basically stabilized, Moscow also began to study a question, that is, who initiated the vigorous Mexican movement?

Their current conclusion is that Mexico does not have the possibility of spontaneous revolution at present. Therefore, this movement must have been guided from the outside. So who guided this movement?

The idea of ​​the investigation is also very simple. Even if it may be initiated by someone at the top, if he wants to achieve remote guidance, he must rely on foreign agents, so it is definitely right to start from the KGB.

According to the internal personnel data of the KGB, there are quite a few agents sent to Mexico, but from the information they reported, everyone's intelligence work is proceeding in an orderly manner, and no one has any abnormalities.

If you want a movement to develop to this extent, it is definitely not a part-time job. During this period, he certainly cannot carry out normal intelligence work, so he should start from the agent who suddenly lost contact.

But after checking around, it was found that no one was missing, and the KGB began to expand its sights to the entire Americas. In this way, there are many more candidates, but most of the missing people can obtain leaked intelligence corresponding to their positions from the CIA, that is, they have betrayed.

There are already very few people who have lost contact but have not found the corresponding leaked intelligence, and there are even fewer who meet the requirements of experience, ability, and ideas.

Finally, the KGB's eyes stopped on a name.

"Alfred, I will bring you good news from Moscow today. We have a new successor, and the first thing he did after taking office was to let me talk to you." Keira stood in the hospital office and said to the other end of the phone.

"What?" Alfred asked very puzzled, and then he heard Keira say to him in a proud tone:

"The Supreme Chairman expressed great praise for you. He called you the greatest revolutionary mentor in the past decade and the eternal friend of the Mexican people."

"He said he was sorry that he could not award you the medal in person because of the current situation in Moscow..."

"But the Soviet people, the Mexican people and all comrades with great ideals in the world will never forget your great deeds!"

Keira's tone suddenly slowed down and became more gentle. She said in Russian: "... Proletarians of the world unite, comrades."

A week later, Alfred took a box from Keira's hand. After he opened the box, there was a handwritten letter in it.

Above the handwritten letter, a badge with a sickle, a hammer and a red flag was shining.
