While flipping through the documents, Yanayev said to Kryuchkov without raising his head, "The Americans will only look for the most valuable chess piece. Which chess piece do you think will most inspire the CIA in the situation in Turkey? ?”

Kryuchkov thought for a long time, clapped his hands suddenly, and said to Yanayev, "Could it be that their new pawn is the PKK? No, Ocalan is now a political asylum in Moscow. How could he agree?" Will cooperate with the Americans? Besides, the United States is a staunch supporter of the Turkish government.”

"The problem is that the world has changed." Yanayev sighed, closed the document on the desktop, and gently pushed him aside.The high-intensity work in the past few days has made Yanayev the most fatigued state.He urgently needs rest to adjust his body and regain his energy.

"The United States supports Demirel's pro-Western regime. As for the military with an ambiguous attitude, the Americans will not give him a good look. Moreover, the Turkish army's control of the situation does not meet the expectations of the United States. Therefore, the Americans need to ask Maz General Yael put pressure on him. The PKK was his best choice at this time. And one of the things we negotiated with General Maziyel was not to let there be unrest in southeastern Turkey."

Yanayev was talking to Kryuchkov almost with his eyes closed, and Kryuchkov lowered his voice when he saw the tired Yanayev, "Then how should we deal with the issue of the PKK? "

"How long has it been since Ocalan contacted you?" Yanayev asked abruptly.

Kryuchkov was caught off guard by Yanayev's question, he thought for a while and then reported a cautious number, "Since we told the PKK to wait for the opportunity, we have not contacted us for more than three weeks. .”

Yanayev suddenly opened his eyes, turned around and said to Kryuchkov, "That is to say, since the coup, Ocalan has not contacted the KGB stationed in Turkey for more than five days?"

"Yes." Kryuchkov nodded, not understanding why Yanayev suddenly brought up the matter.

"It's not good, it's really not good." Yanayev stood up from his chair and leaned against the table to think about the problem, "According to Ocalan's character, he will definitely contact Moscow impatiently after the Turkish coup. Jalan is eager to seize this perfect opportunity to riot. However, five days have passed, and he still has not moved. What does this mean?"

"Could it be..." Kryuchkov rolled his eyes, and quickly guessed what Yanayev wanted to say, "Is it because the PKK wants to seize the opportunity to do it alone, so it doesn't plan to go through Moscow? Do you directly do it?"

"But what about their campaign funds? Moscow has cut off financial assistance, just in case. If Ocalan wants to start a large-scale riot, he needs financial support. Then the most likely thing left is that he has The funds were obtained from other places, and the person who is most likely to pay for this funds is..." Yanayev was a little depressed, and he almost ignored this step of the Americans.

"It's the CIA." Kryuchkov said the answer. He felt a little scared when he thought of this, and he didn't expect that a hole card he held might have quietly become someone else's hand.No wonder Yanayev has been emphasizing before that it is necessary to keep abreast of the PKK's movements to prevent accidents.

Yanayev said solemnly, "Comrade Kryuchkov, now I need you to confirm one thing. Use the pawns placed by the KGB in the PKK to see if there is any intelligence about an attack. If so, immediately Feedback to the Kremlin."

"I see, General Secretary Yanayev."

Kryuchkov, not daring to waste a moment on this question, got up at once and returned to Lubyanka.He needs to personally supervise this kind of information feedback work, otherwise the stone hanging in his heart will never fall.He glanced back at Yanayev, and whispered, "General Secretary Yanayev, you have been up for almost a week and haven't had a good rest. It's time to take a break. We are all worried that your body will not be able to bear it." .”

Hearing Kryuchkov's words, Yanayev turned his head and said to him with a smile, "This matter has not been resolved, how can I sleep in peace. Go and do your work first, Comrade Kryuchkov .I want to think about it quietly, um."

After Kryuchkov exited the room, Yanayev slowly sat down on the sofa.He is indeed very tired, and a good rest has become an extravagant hope at this time. He wants to squint his eyes, but this red republic needs to support himself. If even he falls, then it is really possible that there will be no leader.

A portrait of Comrade Stalin hangs on the wall of the office, which Yanayev himself chose for the position.There are Khrushchev, Brezhnev, Andropov, Chernenko, but the portrait of Gorbachev is missing.The portrait of Stalin was unexpectedly placed in the middle.As if to correct the mistakes made during the Khrushchev period.

"The leader of Iron is long gone."

"But the will of steel will eventually be inherited by someone."

Yanayev's memory of the past has become very vague, but this sentence is deeply imprinted in his mind.This is also the reason why he has been supported to go so far.Indelible faith, and iron will and spirit.From Stalingrad to the Red Square in Moscow, for this great belief, countless people stepped forward and laid the foundation of a great republic.

Yanayev is the guardian of the republic, and he stands where the country needs it most.

Not one step back.

until it falls.

Chapter 541 A New Chip

As expected, everything was developing according to Yanayev's calculated script. The KGB's intelligence personnel in Hakkari intercepted the intelligence that Öcalan was about to launch an armed riot.Immediately reported the situation to Chairman Kryuchkov. When Kryuchkov received the information, he was secretly relieved, but then became nervous again.After the intelligence about the riot was confirmed by the KGB, it further shows that Ocalan and the CIA have come to a united front, and the military government regime formed by Mazyel is now in a precarious state.

One is that the old foxes belonging to the Demirel and Erbakan factions in the political arena have not been cleaned up. After removing these obstructive chess pieces, the remaining power vacuum needs to be quickly filled with promotions.And all of this requires Maziyer to complete the deployment in the shortest possible time. After all, the enemies of the Turkish government don't have so much time for him to prepare.

The second is that the Kurdistan Workers Party, which has been splitting in the southeastern provinces, also intends to take advantage of the military's political cleansing and aim its guns at the military bases in the southern provinces of Turkey.Although this group of Kurdish fighters does not have advanced armored forces, they have a bunch of weapons supported by the United States and the Soviet Union and can launch guerrilla warfare at any time.

When Yanayev got the information, he didn't have Kryuchkov's nervousness and worry. A shot in the arm for the deadlocked Shevardnadze.At the same time, it may also become one of the most important bargaining chips for Mazier.

He immediately called Foreign Minister Shevardnadze, who was still negotiating in Ankara, just as the tripartite talks had reached an impasse.The United States, the Soviet Union, and Turkey are unwilling to back down.The talks were stalemate in this way for several days, but with this information, the balance of victory once again tilted in the direction of the Soviet Union.Yanayev will eventually win this silent war in an unexpected way.

"Is there still such a deal between the CIA and the PKK? My God, this is enough to embarrass that wicked old hag Madeleine again. I think we have won, General Secretary Yanayev." Xie Waldnazer was eager to try, and he couldn't wait to see what kind of expression Madeleine would have next.

Yanayev reminded him, "No one can guarantee that they are the final winner until the end. I need you to concentrate and give the opponent a fatal blow. The United States can't turn over its cards at the negotiating table!" Yanayev His gaze became gloomy, and he desperately wanted to see the expression on the American government's self-confessed unlucky face.

"I understand, General Secretary Yanayev. I will entertain the Iron Lady."

After Shevardnadze hung up the phone, he hummed a ditty in a happy mood. The information came in a very timely manner. He was supposed to attend the third round of negotiations in 10 minutes. He continued to procrastinate until the top Moscow officials found a winning strategy.

These days he had had enough of this woman who talked about the interests of the United States every day.The means are tough but not smooth enough, and he still lost slightly when facing the old fox Shevardnadze.

"Dear Secretary of State Madeleine, I hope you will not be intimidated by the huge operational efficiency of the KGB." Shevardnadze straightened his tie and walked towards the conference hall.Walking slowly, with a smile on his face, like an elegant nobleman, he stepped into the tense meeting room.Maziel and Madeleine cast their eyes on him at the same time.Especially Madeleine's eyes were full of resentment and malice.

But then she smiled with relief, because the United States has a new bargaining chip.PKK.She has received intelligence information from the White House that the leader of the PKK, Ocalan, has agreed to the CIA's proposal and is preparing to launch a riot in the southeastern region of Turkey.As the mastermind behind the scenes, Langley naturally hoped that the PKK riots could be used to force Maziyer to submit.At that time, the United States will be able to blackmail Maziel in an open and aboveboard manner.

Thinking of this, Secretary of State Madeleine smiled complacently. She looked at Shevardnadze with provocative eyes, but saw an unknown smile on his face.

Madeleine froze for a moment, she didn't know what Shevardnadze's smile meant.

"Could it be that the Soviets saw through the cards in my hand? Impossible, the secret agreement reached two days ago, how could the Soviet Union get wind of it so quickly. Or is Shevardnadze just bluffing, he has no cards in his hand Available?"

Thinking of this, Madeleine calmed down and reviewed the previous details, she was more sure of her thoughts.The Soviet Union has no way out, and the calmness shown by Shevardnadze is only a superficial phenomenon.As long as the United States continues to exert pressure on the negotiating table, Mazier will only succumb to the United States in the end.

On the other side of the negotiating table, Maziel found himself unable to intervene in the tit-for-tat between Madeleine and Shevardnadze.Originally, they wanted to get the maximum political profit from their demands, but Shevardnadze and Madeleine didn't expect to hold on to the third round without asking for conditions, and they just kept testing each other's bottom line.From Maziel's point of view, both sides seemed to be stalling for time, waiting for something.

Maziel turned his attention to the meeting, and he said to Secretary of State Madeleine, "It seems that the third round of negotiations has not made any progress, why don't we change the way, Minister Madeleine. I I would like to ask directly, what kind of conditions will the United States and the Soviet Union put forward?"

Madeleine didn't speak, not sure if what Maziel said was a trap.So the responsibility was shifted to Shevardnadze.

Madeleine said slowly and methodically, "I think the Soviet Union has more say on this issue. After all, didn't you spend a lot of money to win over and subvert the Turkish regime?"

Shevardnadze said confidently, "The Soviet Union has always done things with a clear conscience. We just want to resolve the Black Sea dispute as soon as possible? Why? Are Americans all villains who say one thing and do another? Oh, it's wrong The United States is a villain who says one thing and does another."

Shevardnadze's gaze became sharper, and he still had that friendly smile on his face, but what he said made Madeleine want to kill him.

"Remember the Yugoslavia issue, Ms. Madeleine. You were the one at the United Nations conference who actively urged the President to punish Slobodan Milosevic with Tomahawk cruise missiles. Isn’t Bosnia and Herzegovina a scorched earth now? You are also the American official who suggested airstrikes to bomb Serb positions in Bosnia and Herzegovina at the United Nations. At that time, “Newsweek” was titled “Winter Lioness”, at the beginning of the article Will call you a war woman, right? That article enumerates the crimes of a stern-faced Mario cabinet war wing: trying to promote the first war in 50 years; And kicked him out; making irresponsible remarks about the behavior of countries on both the left and the right.”

Shevardnadze took a deep breath and questioned word by word, "Don't you dare to point fingers at them and say that they must act according to the will of the United States? Now, in front of the representative of another superpower, how dare you say Are those words repeated to us?"

Shevardnadze's voice was not loud, but Madeleine's expression changed instantly due to his tough attitude.The corner of her mouth twitched, trying to make a rebuttal.But lost to the toughness represented by Shevardnadze.

The tough attitude at the negotiating table comes from the strong comprehensive strength of the country behind him.Madeleine dared to point fingers in front of small countries, but she didn't dare to speak presumptuously in front of the Soviet Union.

In other words, the Secretary of State gave up.

At this moment, Shevardnadze finally took off the mask of hypocrisy, revealing the hideousness of a politician.He threw a document on the negotiating table, and then said to Mazyel next to him, "General, I think that by reading this document, you will know more about the woman on the other side of the negotiating table. monster."

Chapter 542 The Conspiracy Revealed

All eyes were on the document provided by the Soviet Union, which was the evidence collected by the KGB about the secret transactions between Ocalan of the PKK and intelligence agents of the CIA, including the flow of aid funds from overseas banks. , and the secret plan of the PKK for riots.The pawns placed by the KGB in the PKK finally helped Mazyel at the most critical moment.

The expressions of the other people present were not looking good.They also did not expect the Soviets to have such confidential information.The expressions of the translators sitting next to these leaders were also very tangled.How should I translate next to ease the atmosphere of this negotiation a little bit.

Maziel picked up the documents on the table and began to flip through them.And Madeleine, who was sitting opposite Shevardnadze, had already turned pale.What shocked her was why the KGB was able to uncover the secrets of the deal between the United States and the PKK in such a short period of time, or that the PKK had no intention of cooperating with the Americans from the beginning?But Madeleine quickly dismissed the idea. The PKK is eager to see civil strife in Turkey, so the PKK will never let go of such an opportunity.The only possibility that Madeleine thought of was that within the PKK, there was still a very deep hidden KGB insider.

But it doesn't matter who the insider is.The expression on General Maziel's face was quite complicated, there was shock at discovering the secret, but more out of anger.Shocked and angry expressions were intertwined, making his face look rather gloomy and uncertain.

He never thought that he would be betrayed as a victim.The originally vacillating hesitation also made up his mind at this moment.Between the Soviet Union and the United States, he chose to be an ally of the Soviet Union.
