According to the established plan, Gorbachev will sign the "New Alliance Treaty" in the Kremlin on August 20, 1991. Once the alliance is signed, the sovereignty of all union republics will be recognized, and the Mao Xiong's republic alliance system will be modified to
Sovereign state alliance system, so that at least 5 union republics no longer belong to Mao Xiong, which involves the unity and integrity of the country.
In this way, major issues such as the future, destiny and social development of Mao Xiong are placed in front of various political forces in a sharp form, and fierce competition is inevitable.
Two days before the signing of the treaty, in the afternoon, countless party and government officials gathered in the government office building, and it seemed that some secret meeting was about to be held.
In the large conference room, countless leaders gathered at this moment.
Yanayev, Pavlov, Kryuchkov, Baklanov...countless big names among the conservatives, with serious expressions on their faces, sat in front of the large round table of the conference and spoke.
He looked at KGB leader Kryuchkov silently, waiting for him to tell the reason for summoning everyone.
Some of these people participated in the secret meeting a few days ago, some did not, and no high-level radicals were present.
"Everyone, I have received definite information that someone will launch an armed uprising in Moscow. They will secretly surround some strategic points in the capital, including the TV station headquarters, the train station, and the two hotels where the congressmen live."
Kryuchkov looked serious, glanced at everyone, and said word by word,
"This was a major disaster. In addition, KGB agents also discovered a blacklist containing the names of a large number of people present at the meeting. It is said that the people on this blacklist and their
All family members will be secretly executed!"
"hiss--"
"How can it be?"
"Who dares to do such a crazy thing!"
Unbelievable voices and doubts are endless.
This news is too shocking for people to accept.
How dare some people dare to cause trouble in the capital and treat the lives of senior officials as nothing!
Plekhanov, director of the KGB Security Bureau, supported his chin with his hands and added: "I also learned about similar situations through other channels. The problem is indeed very serious, so our KGB decided to summon everyone, as well as Mr. Yanayev, to hold this meeting.
A temporary emergency meeting."
"I have another thing that I need to explain to you." Bolkin, the director of the presidential office who was sitting at the bottom, suddenly spoke. As soon as he spoke, everyone looked at him, "Mr. Gorbachev is critically ill.
.”
"What?!"
"His Excellency the President's condition is very serious, and the doctor does not allow anyone to disturb him. I and several others have just returned from the presidential villa on Foros Bay, Crimea. We saw His Excellency in the room from a distance, but the doctor did not allow him to disturb him.
We're going in so we're not sure of the specifics."
Bolkin looked troubled.
Several other people also agreed.
"Your Excellency, you seem to have a history of heart disease." Vice President Yanayev whispered.
Everyone was horrified again.
These are extraordinary times. There was a riot just a few days ago, which affected the Government Office Building and the Presidential Palace. His Excellency Yelkin almost died. Now, someone is taking the opportunity to target the congressmen and senior officials and plot an armed uprising. Even the President has fallen ill.
Got it!
What an eventful year it has been.
"It could also be a stroke." Bolkin added, "Anyway, we can't invite the President to preside over the meeting for the time being. Yelikin is the leader of the radical faction and has always been at odds with us conservatives, so we invited him to come.
It is estimated that it will be difficult to change the emergency situation. I suggest that Mr. Yanayev now temporarily presides over the meeting on behalf of Mr. Gorbachev!"
This is not controversial.
Below Gorbachev is Yanayev, one level higher than Yelkin. Even if Yelkin is here, he has to agree with this proposal.
Everyone responded one after another, and then someone asked doubtfully: "Didn't the KGB find out who the person who intended to launch an armed uprising was?"
"I don't have any clue at the moment." Kryuchkov shook his head. He looked at the person who asked the question, and after confirming that the person who asked the question was not a member of the meeting that day, he understood.
A gloomy atmosphere enveloped the conference room.
After the atmosphere was almost brewing, Yanayev lightly knocked on the round table, drawing everyone's attention back, and solemnly said: "I propose that in response to this special situation, an emergency committee be established. The committee will temporarily have the power to mobilize the army and
The power of all walks of life is used to respond to the crisis. When the crisis is over, the committee will automatically dissolve."
"I will reconsider."
"I agree."
"I agree too."
The proposal to establish an emergency committee was unanimously approved.
The crowd immediately voted to elect the eight members of the committee:
Vice President Yanayev, Prime Minister Pavlov, Chairman of the Defense Council Baklanov, Defense Minister Yazov, Interior Minister Puger, KGB leader Kryuchkov, Peasant Union leader Staro Dubce
husband, state enterprises and industry, construction, transportation,
Didyakov, President of the Federation of Postal and Telecommunications Facilities.
Yanayev concurrently serves as the president.
"We must rush to His Excellency Gorbachev's villa immediately to find out his physical condition. If Your Excellency is really seriously ill, we must declare a state of emergency and immediately implement an arrest operation!" Yanayev photographed
He patted the round table and said, "Actually, I have a rough guess about the people who started the uprising. Time is everything now. Let's set off immediately!"
"Yes!" The other seven nodded.
The meeting was dissolved, and the eight Yanayevs were escorted by bodyguards and agents to the special plane. The rest of the people left the meeting room with sad faces, thinking about the possible impact of this incident.
Everyone present is a backbone of conservatives, and they are not fools.
There is a high probability that this is a drama directed and performed by Yanayev and others, and it is a plan for Yelkin. The problem is that they cannot avoid Gorbachev. As long as the President is alive, on August 20
Once the "New Alliance Treaty" is signed, everything is over.
How will they resolve this conflict?
The news that Gorbachev suddenly became seriously ill is also very unreliable.
After leaving the government building, some people secretly took out their mobile phones and started making calls to search for the source of the problem. However, they were shocked to find that the mobile phone signal was extremely weak!
At the same time, TV stations, radio stations, newspapers and other media organizations have been completely controlled by Yanayev's people, and a tight blockade network has enveloped Moscow.
People on the streets were still running for daily necessities, unaware that a shocking change was taking place.
A long-arranged special plane flew out of the Kremlin and headed directly to Gorbachev's villa in Foros, Crimea!
