USSR 1991

There was no one behind him.

"I will not disappoint the general secretary."

At the end he added, "We will also not let the country and the people down."

Yanayev, who walked to the door, paused for a moment, turned his head to look at the office, it was still the same as when he first came, there was no change in the slightest, but the person sitting in that position was no longer himself.I feel a little lost in my heart.

In 1991, he stepped out of his Kremlin office alone.

In 1998, a person quietly left the position of general secretary.

With all his glory gone, he has done enough for this country. The signposts of the lighthouse have been erected. The future of this country will not be in darkness.Forefathers who have gone through the Great Patriotic War, this peaceful and prosperous world is as you wish.

Finally, he restrained his expression, turned his head, smiled and said to the people behind him, "From tomorrow onwards, you will be General Secretary Vladimir."

Countdown to Farewell Chapter [-]

After the financial war ended, Yanayev disappeared from the Kremlin.For quite a long time, the CIA did not even receive any news about the former Soviet General Secretary, and was replaced by Comrade Vladimir who frequently appeared in front of the screen.

Everyone is aware that Vladimir's becoming the Soviet general secretary is an irreversible ending. Although the Politburo has not announced anything, the Ministry of Defense, the army, and the Politburo have subtly regarded Comrade Vladimir as a new leader. A generation of leadership groups, coupled with Yanayev's quiet retreat, everyone also regards Vladimir as the latest general secretary of the Soviet.

They didn't know what great contribution Yanayev had made until Vladimir took office.After eight years of governance, the situation in the Soviet Union's team has shown a momentum of healthy development. The original bad and rigid economic situation no longer exists, and a new round of rapid development has replaced it.

The second is the second Odyarkov information revolution set off by the army. The sea, land, air and rocket forces have undergone a complete subversive transformation, and finally formed a modern army force team, plus the GLONASS system and vines With the continuous improvement of the system, the aerospace industry of the Soviet Union also ushered in a region of high development.

The strong rise of the Far East has begun to shine under Yanayev's dedicated efforts. A new round of oil field development has injected new vitality into this cold permafrost. Yanayev wants to build a second economy here The plan of the center of gravity also started.

Compared with the desperation and social turmoil in Western Europe, the current Soviet Union is simply paradise.

A figure leaning on crutches appeared in the Novodevichy Cemetery. Compared with a year ago, the figure in front of him was obviously much older. His black hair had faded away, leaving only the silver gray Yanayev struggling to stand. In front of a tombstone, the expression was silent.

He is very familiar with the person covered with medals in the photo.

奥佳尔科夫元帅，1917年10月30日——1998年12月9日。

He died of cerebral hemorrhage eight months ago and closed his eyes on the hospital bed. It is said that when Marshal Odyarkov finally left, he was still smiling and calm.Living four years longer than in the original history, Marshal Odyarkov lasted until the informatization reform entered the middle stage and fulfilled his last wish.

Yanayev took a bottle of vodka, unscrewed the cap, and sprinkled it on his grave.

"You take a step ahead, and I'm almost there. The prosperity of this republic is as everyone wishes. A strong and glorious red empire, although the red color has not spread all over the world, but in the near future, they will be in the shadow of red again. Fear."

Yanayev coughed. Cardiopulmonary failure entangled his body like a nightmare. His physical condition began to deteriorate after the operation. The only thing that kept him from falling down was his firm belief.

The country has not eliminated the last risk, and he cannot fall yet.

"All the obstacles I can see have been eradicated. At least in the first 4 years of Vladimir's administration, he will not encounter any obstacles internally. As for the international environment, it can only be seen. .I have opened a gap for Eastern Europe. Germany will not be able to untie Europe in the short term. France, which is outside the power of the European Union, has begun to cooperate with us. Now Western Europe is in a state of disunity. If such a good external environment does not If Ladimir still fails to seize the opportunity, then I can't force anything."

"Cough cough."

The violent cough made him cover his mouth, and the entourage of the leader's Security Bureau wanted to come over to help the general secretary, but he refused. When he took his hand away from his mouth, it was still stained with blood.Supported with thoughts until now, after fulfilling all wishes, the dying body finally began to collapse on the verge of death.

"I'm almost done, Comrade Surkov."

He turned his head and said to the respectful Soviet gray-clothed bishop beside him with a tired expression, "Maybe we can't survive 1999, and here today may be one of the few times we meet. Finally, there are some things I want to tell you. one time."

"General Secretary Yanayev..." Surkov said subconsciously, "You will be fine."

"Hehe, I know the best about my body. Listen, this is the last thing I ask you to do. Regarding the Soviet Union's war on the high ground of public opinion, film and television, books and culture, these three markets must be well grasped. I don’t want the Soviet Propaganda Department to turn into a rigid Ministry of Truth again after I’m gone. Public opinion wars can’t be achieved with money, and people who implement the general policy need to have a flexible mind. I will make the Soviet Propaganda Department Separated from the system, it is for this reason. So far no one is more suitable to sit in this position than you. I hope you can become the next gray cardinal Suslov. At least I am gone, shrouded The shadow on you will be slightly smaller, but the pressure will only increase."

"I will, General Secretary Yanayev."

Even after he has stepped down, Surkov's respect for Yanayev has only increased.

This old man completely changed the pattern of the world by relying on his own strength.

He even accomplished a feat that Stalin failed to accomplish until his death.

After a series of words, Yanayev was a little tired, he turned around slowly, and walked to the depths of the cemetery on crutches.The belief that he cannot fall down has persisted until now, but he is a little tired. The long road to revival is about to start. As a guide, he has completed the last step.

To die without regret.

Surkov followed the former general secretary carefully behind him. After the glamorous and prominent power faded away, the only thing left of him was a lonely back, an ordinary man.

The birch trees planted in the cemetery began to turn into a bright golden yellow, just like the splendor of life at the last moment, ending everything in a peaceful way.

The mood began to calm down, Yanayev took a deep breath.He never thought that the vigorous opening would end in such a peaceful way.At this moment, he thought of many things, the little girl he met on the banks of the Moscow River, Pavlov's eyes when he said goodbye, and Tbilisi, which was in turmoil amidst the war.

"It's already autumn."

"I should probably go too."

Yanayev turned around slowly and said to Surkov behind him, "Comrade Surkov."

Surkov stopped and looked at the gray-haired general secretary in front of him.

"Ok?"

Yanayev waved his hand and said with a smile, "Goodbye."

Chapter One Thousand and Five Goodbye, Soviet

The last time the people saw General Secretary Yanayev was at the military parade on the Red Square during the October Revolution in 1999. General Secretary Yanayev seemed to be in good spirits, smiling and talking and laughing with the people around him.Although he was the former General Secretary of the Soviet Union, he chose to sit in a low-key position away from his comrades in the Politburo, not wanting others to notice him.

He just talked and laughed and chatted with the people around the recent situation. The improvement seems to be good. He swept away the previous gloom and depression, and even continued to analyze the current situation with Vladimir to prevent the United States from provoking again. Purpose of the European Civil War.As for Western Europe, they will continue to take care of themselves, and one day they will reap the consequences of themselves.

On November 11th, the sky in Moscow was no longer cloudy in winter, but a very rare blue sky, as if specially celebrating the October Revolution Victory Day on this day.The clean and tidy Red Square in Moscow is preparing to welcome the arrival of the army. The blue sky and the red walls of the Kremlin set off each other.The people who have already gathered are looking forward to the parade passing by.All comrades from the Politburo gathered together, quietly waiting for the start of the military parade.

The Soviet veterans who participated in the Second World War were gradually thinned out.

Others who participated in the military parade back then, now there is only a cold tombstone left.

Those veterans once stood in disheveled clothes on Red Square, waiting for the call to assemble. They had seen the ferocious artillery fire of the German Nazis and their blurred backs facing the bullets.Follow the torrent of steel into Berlin and witness the flag of victory being planted on the roof of the Reichstag.However, when the millennium is approaching, many of them lost to time.War once deprived them of their most precious things, but now time has deprived them of their only remaining life.

This is not the first time for those veterans to participate in a grand military parade. From various cities in the Soviet Union to the solemn Red Square in Moscow, many people think of the cold names engraved on the monument, those comrades who have long been separated from themselves.Now they will never see the motherland they looked forward to again.

The former comrades-in-arms and the continuous artillery fire have long since dissipated in the long river of time, but the only thing that has settled down is the never-ending footsteps and shouts that keep moving forward.

Yanayev half-closed his eyes, looked at Vladimir standing in the center, and smiled with relief.

He finally supported a vast red republic.

Next, the country will be revived in his hands.

The only regret is that it has not been able to recover Constantinople and rebuild the pride of the Third Rome.

The singing of the Unbreakable Alliance resounded in every corner of Moscow's Red Square. Accompanied by the singing, came the Moscow armored forces. The original phalanx has long been a thing of the past, replaced by the latest T14 Armata tanks.Under the pull of 1500 horsepower, the huge steel monster covered every piece of land in Red Square with its steel tracks, announcing the arrival of the red polar bear to the world.

Yanayev finally laughed. The development of the military industry that he had firmly grasped until he left had finally paid off at this moment. It was just a pity that he could no longer move his pace, go to the Crimea Peninsula, go to Vladivostok, go to Murmansk and see his proud naval power.
