Big Time 1958

   "Give it to me again? I'm going to go to Italy next month! Is there no one in our KGB?" Serov's hand holding the water glass trembled. The tight schedule and heavy tasks were not enough to show his difficulties!

   "Do you have an opinion?" Xie Lieping's eyes squinted, with a serious look on his face, making most people dare not face him! But Serov is not an ordinary person, and this kind of majesty of the chairman can't help him at all. On the contrary, Serov directly picked up Shelepin's phone and asked the cafeteria at the headquarters to prepare lunch.

"My current job is not to mention the daily official documents, there are training camps in Azerbaijan, support for the Algerian Anti-French War, an aid plan for the Indonesian Ministry of Internal Affairs, an inspection tour to Italy next month, and a consultant for the Olympic Games! General Secretary of the Italian Communist Party, Parimi Rotoriatti, get in touch with the feelings and see if we can establish certain economic ties with the Soviet Union!" Serov stuffed bread into his mouth, and his mouth was eating and talking at the same time!

   This kind of difficult work soon had consequences, and it was choking! At the speed of a professional soldier, he instantly ran to the window to pick up a glass of water with a kettle, and poured it down. Looking at the socialist-style kettle, Serov turned to the KGB chairman in front of him and said, "Old secretary, boil water like this. Is it a little troublesome, I will ask the General Administration of Technology to improve the water dispenser that has been implemented in the United States, and I will install one for you!"

   "Anyone can solve a problem like a water dispenser. You don't need a vice-chairman to supervise it personally. You can use it whenever you want!" Xie Lieping very rudely brought the thermos over and poured himself a glass of water! Greeting people to come in to change the water, and pull the question back again, "But you must participate in the merger of the Ministry of Internal Affairs!"

   Shelepin was a cadre who was parachuted into the KGB. Because the cadres of the KGB are generally very old, they found out when they first entered the KGB. One of the Communist Youth League cadres who he promoted in Azerbaijan has gotten along well here. Although there are many cadres of the Communist Youth League who have followed Xie Leping in, no one has been able to reach the position of Director General in less than two years. Now the most trusted subordinate is still Serov alone.

In view of this, Shelepin always asks Shelov to do things. Good things must be taken care of, bad things have to take him to land mines, and if things are bad or not, Shelov will be withdrawn to test it first. Now the merger of the Ministry of Internal Affairs will be done. It's not a bad thing. Now it seems that his subordinates seem to have a kind of rebellious heart.

   I have to say that what Serov said is very reasonable. At present, his schedule is a little too tight. Shelepin spent less than ten seconds to think about whether there are other candidates. Ten seconds later, he simply said, "It's you. At present, the KGB is still the most suitable for you. Get this thing right within a month..."

   Have you really thought about it? Serov can name no less than ten more suitable candidates in one breath. It is not difficult to guess why the boss likes him. Just like Brezhnev likes stable cadres, Shelepin likes to appoint young cadres. But the two of them have one thing in common, that is, this cadre must be familiar with! No one wants to hire someone who doesn't know their origin.

The problem is that you are the number one leader of the KGB, and the trust of the first secretary does not need to be considered, but he is not good at Shelov. There are so many cadres of the same level and higher qualifications than yourself, and you are not in charge of merging the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Are you in isolation?

   "Old secretary, then I'll come! But you have a meeting of the chiefs of the general bureau tomorrow..." Serov felt half full after eating lunch. I have already thought about what to do when I eat! The cadres that Xie Lepin brought from the Communist Youth League were, after all, a minority. This matter must take into account the opinions of most senior cadres.

   "No problem!" Xie Lieping patted the ace chief's shoulder and said, "Work hard. The first secretary is also very optimistic about you..."

The next day's meeting of the directors of the general bureau naturally did not let all the chiefs of the general bureaus arrive, but more than half of the department heads arrived. Shelov took out a list of the merged committee covering all the chiefs, and wrote the names of all the chiefs of the general bureau. Going in, including Shelepin and two first vice-chairmen, himself and twelve other vice-chairmen, twenty-three heads of general bureaus, and eight deputy ministers of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, even Tikunov's name is in it !

"The decision to merge the Ministry of Internal Affairs this time is the decision of the Central Presidium. It is impossible to talk about who is eating who. The Ministry of Internal Affairs and the KGB are simply one family. Everyone can think that it is just a change of name, the work they have done, or the relationship with the KGB. It turned out to be the same!" Shelov directly dismissed the secretary and sent his specific opinions to the KGB director and the Minister of Internal Affairs who were present. These words are mainly said to the cadres of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, so that the cadres from the Ministry of Internal Affairs should not have any resistance.

   "Chairman Shelepin means to set up a committee, so that our work as a family can be seamlessly matched!" Shelov's words held high praise for all cadres, indicating that this merger is just a family reunion!

Then Serov took the cadres present to recall the history. Of course, the time when the two departments worked together was not too deep. After all, the most closely integrated moment between the two was the Beria era, with the leaders sitting on the stage now. From the point of view of people, we can’t talk about this aspect. The reason why Serov wants to do this is mainly to bridge the resistance on the side of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

"Yes, everyone doesn't think that the KGB annexed us. In fact, we all understand that we are a family, but we were divided into two departments. It only took a few years!" Tikunov spoke on behalf of the cadres of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Dao, anyway, he is ready to leave the security field and work in the Ministry of Petroleum Industry!

  The merger of agencies first needs to settle the front and deputy ministers of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. This problem is actually not difficult! With Sherepin in charge, and Serov's assurance that they would not work or interfere, the work of the merged agency would actually only take a few days to complete.

   The most valuable thing in the Ministry of Internal Affairs is the 240,000 internal police officers and 180,000 Soviet civil defense forces in the country! In fact, the Ministry of Internal Affairs still has about 50,000 to 60,000 internal affairs troops, which are responsible for the usual vigilance! Many people think that the KGB is in command of all the internal forces of the Soviet Union, but this is not the case. The Soviet Civil Defense Forces of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, like the Internal Affairs Forces of the KGB, the Frontier Defense Forces, and the Red Army of the Ministry of Defense, are all part of the Soviet armed forces. If you have to say, the two sides do not lead each other and have their own command system!

   The military power of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is the most troublesome part of this merger. As the vice-chairman of the KGB, Serov, in the spirit of mastery, ensures that the merger with the Ministry of Internal Affairs will not let their military power suffer any loss.

"Integrate the internal affairs force of the Ministry of Internal Affairs into our KGB's internal affairs force, the Civil Defense Force? The command is handed over to the KGB presidium. As for the merger of the internal affairs forces into the internal affairs army, the command should be handed over to the first secretary of Khrushchev. Come and decide!" Serov is now in Kyiv, with his wife Valya by his side.

"The power of your KGB seems to be a lot bigger!" Valiya leaned forward and watched her husband plan the cooperation between the two departments with a curious look. When she married Serov, the Ministry of Internal Affairs also It was not split into two parts, the KGB and the Ministry of Internal Affairs, because Serov soon went abroad to be an ambassador in Italy. In fact, Valia actually knew more about the power of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and what it meant at home.

   "Is it big? You might still need our KGB's help!" Shelov turned back and kissed the woman's delicate red lips, and continued to write his own report! Kyiv was his third stop. Before that, he had already conducted a thorough investigation in Leningrad and Minsk. Most of the internal affairs troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs were concentrated in a limited number of large cities. It is impossible to explain how limited they are. There is no need to make it clear. Taking advantage of the convenience of this job, Serov ran to Kyiv to see his wife again.

   "Stay here for a few days!" Valiya rudely hugged the man's neck from behind, and her golden hair got into Serov's neck, causing Serov to scratch like a conditioned reflex! As for a woman's slightly excess weight, it is a trivial matter. As a woman who wears high heels and is about the same height as Sheloff, a little heavier is nothing, far from being fat! What's more, Valya grows in the place where the flesh should grow, and the touch of the two **** on the back is quite heart-warming.

"Stay for three or four days, remember to ask for leave next month, and I'll take you to Rome! Ekaterina..." Serov hurriedly revised his report while speaking, marking a decimal point, the number of soldiers of 3,500 and the number of 300 Five is completely different.

"Okay, I haven't been to Rome for several years, and I'll be able to save enough annual leave for a few more years of vacation!" Valia said with a look of grievance in the man's ear, "It's not for you!" The body was completely pressed on Shelov's body, increasing the burden on Shelov's back again.

   The saddened Serov revised his report in front of the lamp, and did not forget to show his favor to the woman who was pressing on him. I don't know if this report will pass through Khrushchev. Another problem is that the military districts of the internal affairs troops and the border guards overlap in some places, which is completely unnecessary in the military field. Some adjustments should be made to the areas under the jurisdiction of the border guards and the location of the internal affairs troops, and the two KGBs should be changed. the mandate of the armed forces is unclear.

"About the area under the jurisdiction of the Internal Affairs Army and the Border Guard..." Serov, who had been oppressed more and more, suddenly stopped writing, turned around and pressed Valya to the bed, shouting, "It's too much, you can't get out of bed today..." Ushered in a burst of giggles...(To be continued~^~)
