Chapter 1075 Chapter 1071 The Great Purge (First Update)

The great purges in the conquered areas that have continued to this day mainly focus on two aspects.

After the drastic changes in Eastern Europe, countries in the Balkan Peninsula collectively turned to the West, and many politicians who were originally close to the Soviet Union also changed their stance. Objectively speaking, these politicians do not need to bear the main responsibility for this matter. Gorbachev and Yeltsin were the worms that eroded the internal Soviet Union, and the incomplete revolution in Eastern Europe led to the capitalist vested interests not completely disappearing but infiltrating the political parties. , as well as the increasingly bad economic situation in the Soviet Union and many other reasons are the root of the problem. To understand all the reasons requires long and detailed investigation and study.

After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, some capable politicians in Eastern Europe allowed the country's economy to develop rapidly in a short period of time, and their domestic and foreign affairs capabilities can be said to be outstanding. However, after completely turning to the West, European and American plutocrats joined the Eastern European market through the free trade they promoted. The cost of drinking poisonous wine to quench their thirst soon became apparent. The industrial powers originally supported by the Soviet Union completely lost their advanced industrial production. Ability can only rely on external blood transfusions, allowing European and American plutocrats to plunder and plunder internally. Latovinia, which has learned lessons from the drastic changes in Eastern Europe, naturally understands where the problems lie and what aspects should be addressed.

Before embarking on the development of heavy industry, the great purge launched by the Latvian intelligence service first targeted the administrative system.

Nick Furrao was sitting in the waiting seat at the airport, looking through the purge list with great interest. Without exception, everyone on the list was the owner of a company that controlled heavy industrial resources, ranging from township enterprises to listed companies. . He did not completely join the Immortal City's intelligence sequence, but the Immortal City still named him to participate in part of the purge work. Nick Fury also looked at the problems in Latvinia today from another angle-like the United States, everyone Every town or village has an elite family that controls local businesses and resources, and small circles are formed between such families. These people are the core force of capitalism and one of the reasons for the rapid decline of Eastern European industry.

This is a problem that has not been solved since Eastern Europe surrendered to socialism. Now, in order to completely solve the problems left over from history and completely strangle urban industrial and commercial capitalism, resources such as steel, coal, land and a large number of production facilities have been nationalized by force. According to Stephen Accountants selected by Malik were stationed in companies run by foreigners in droves, and soldiers arrested all board members in the country.

Only after this part of the purge is completed can we focus on developing state-owned heavy industry and avoid repeating the mistakes of Eastern European industry in the past. Heavy industry will be the lifeline of Latovinia in the future. Victor von Doom does not want to let those rich people put their hands into the political system. The political and business revolving door must not happen in Latvinia. The intelligence obtained from the mouths of these wealthy people helped the intelligence agencies further target politicians who had accepted bribes. Even if they escaped from the country, they would be forcibly brought back to face trial. Nick Fury will command the agents under the Guards to cooperate with Victoria Hand of the intelligence department to arrest corporate executives named as relatives of foreign politicians.

The first purge was just about arresting the leaders, but now this purge is to thoroughly cleanse the conquered areas into what the monarch wants. Therefore, this great purge can be said to be a huge change in the political and economic system of the entire Balkan Peninsula. However, thanks to the efficient work of the administrative department, the chaos did not spread too widely. The great purge of the administrative system did not affect too many lower-class civilians. . Most of the existing politicians elected through democratic voting can be preserved as long as they do not violate the bottom line of principle. After all, the role of these politicians is to sit in that position and obey the orders of Latvinia, and to cultivate local people who belong to Latvinia. Officials buy time. Some workers were surprised to find that the company they worked for reopened after a few days of suspension and a new name. All the company's managers from upper to middle levels were changed, and all workers' past contracts were voided and a new contract was issued. More secure contracts were given to them, and many workers who were originally worried about losing their jobs also gave up their resistance after seeing the companies reopen and chose to restart production.

The second target of the Great Purge was the army.

The combat effectiveness of the armies of these countries in the Balkans is very poor. They not only lack training, but also lack experience in operating advanced weapons and equipment. The tactical regulations taught by NATO military instructors are all based on the experience and tactics summed up by the US military's security wars in the Middle East and Afghanistan. Without the US military's absolute air supremacy, such security warfare tactics are not applicable to the current situation. But this is not a big problem. Latovinia’s tactical drills can solve the problem very well. The real problem is that the Balkans’ military has relied heavily on NATO military assistance for many years. The long-term contact between European and American armies has led to extremely serious military corruption. , military discipline is extremely lax, and some high-ranking officers have become spies who receive several allowances and make money by selling intelligence.

Since affairs within the army would not affect civilians, Latovinia started an extremely severe purge as soon as it took over the army. Almost all high-ranking officers were subjected to extreme interrogations comparable to those of the CIA. A large number of middle- and lower-level officers were tried by newly established military courts and sent to prison. Only a small number of good people who were proven to be independent were able to survive and be promoted. Even many Lower-ranking soldiers were questioned and ordered to face punishment. After the political commissar, wearing a black coat and a large-brimmed hat with a brass eagle emblem on his head, read out the results of the military court, he personally executed the officers who were sentenced to death with the help of the Guards. Nearly two hundred people were executed on the first day of the military purge, and many of the soldiers watching the executions recognized the executed officers.

Almost all political commissars sent to the army have such work experience. The work of these military disciplinary officers is not only to implement the "Unified Truth" in the army, but also to rectify the corruption problem in the army, clean up military discipline, and supervise training. , Build an army with conviction. This is a very, very difficult job, so all political commissars can get help from the sisterhood and genetically modified warriors. Commissar Sophia of the military discipline department is fully responsible for this work. Her subordinates are people from the Lost City of Snow Country (now Latvinia is where their blood originates). Only with the consent of the military discipline department can those troops be qualified to install new equipment. Otherwise, they will become a punishment camp in a sense. Their final value will only be to devote their lives to the cause of reunification, or because of mutiny. Destroyed with absolute violence by genetically modified warriors and sisterhood.

In addition, there are assassination threats of sending assassins to the International Monetary Fund decision-makers, impersonations, the complete replacement of mainstream media and their behind-the-scenes investors, etc. The purge is in progress, but before the first two purges are completed, just Latovinia, which unites half of the Balkan Peninsula, still relies on the monarch's personal combat capabilities, decapitation strikes, and space military power for support. Although the monarch alone can deter Western countries that are eyeing Latvinia, Victor von Doom has not forgotten the original intention of establishing Latvinia. The pace of revitalizing industrialization is urgent and cannot be encountered. Any obstacle, so he plans to let his boss show up more before completing the reform, improve the deterrence ability, and buy time for Latovinia.

"Anyway, your power armor is dazzling enough." Victor von Doom said dryly in a humorless voice, "I need you to make other countries afraid, just like you did before."

Faced with such an answer, Salomon shrugged, which was not easy for a man wearing power armor. "Shouldn't we be afraid when facing a three-meter-tall giant?" he asked. "I don't think my height is more suitable for a state visit than your iron mask. If possible, I will try to avoid talking to civilians." Show your face to avoid scaring them."

"The common people actually don't have that many opinions. The loudest ones are politicians, students and the middle class. But that's not a problem. The suppression of genetically modified warriors and sisterhoods can be completely dealt with until we form an arbitration tribunal composed of local people. , these problems will disappear soon. Human beings worship the strong, which is why humans need heroes. For ordinary people, as long as they can have enough food and clothing, it is enough. For the civilians in these countries, a person who can protect The people in whose lives they live are the heroes,” said Victor von Doom.

Salomon stood in front of his desk, waiting for him to continue.

"You ended the atrocities committed by US troops stationed abroad, you enacted laws to suppress gangs and uphold justice, you arrested and purged corrupt officials, you developed manufacturing to save employment, and you focused on agriculture to protect everyone from hardship and poverty. All of this can Let the people who receive your favor regard you as a hero. The data given by the Communication Monitoring Center shows that as long as you have appeared in the city, the resistance will of its residents will be reduced to a minimum. So if you have the consciousness of becoming a hero, you are not just A king, you represent hope, order and a new era to the common people."
