Chapter 18. History moves (2)
– Students of Kim Il-sung University are boarding a plane bound for England at Pyongyang Sunan International Airport. These republic’s top elite key worker candidates will study in England for the next three years with the consideration of the general secretary and the party.
‘The key is to make them believe that they are free. It doesn’t matter if you’re actually free.’
Jeonghwan thought so to himself as he watched the international students boarding the plane through the news screen of Chosun Central Broadcasting on the TV installed in the secretary’s office.
As soon as I saw the plane running down the runway and taking off into the sky, I was reminded of the MiG 29 that took part in a test flight a while ago.
‘I’m glad I was able to purchase more than I used to. Well, I can’t give you my habitual dog, the Soviets told me to downgrade, but it doesn’t matter. Sooner or later, the entire Soviet design bureau will be brought in.’
Junghwan thought it was a good thing he didn’t dispose of the Frunze faction, including Seungcheol Baek and Gyeseong Hong.

No matter how much they had a different mind at one time, once they were the elite supporting the current military, they were the core of the brain and spine of the staff, and their Russian connections were obviously useful.
It was useless when there was no back-up such as money or power to make such a network really useful, but now the situation has changed.
‘Kim Jong-il, that little pig, you’ve been attacking me a lot. There were villas and yachts all over the country and nothing was missing.’
The disposition of all of Kim Jong-il’s many luxury villas and luxury items in North Korea also played a part in raising the funds for this mass purchase of MiG aircraft.
Since there are more than 180 special stores throughout the republic, such as Wonsan and Macheon, most of the first Sony stores were ripped off and sold at overseas auctions, so this was another fortune.
Choi Seung-il, who was in charge of the sale, could not keep his mouth shut as he watched Jeong-hwan ripped off the jewels, shoes, clothes, watches, and even gold faucets on the marble floor of the villas that Kim Il-sung and Kim Jong-il had given to his concubines for decades, disposing of them or changing their use.
– …..But I thought you would keep some of them for personal use, but you’re amazing. When I heard that the general secretary enjoyed a lot of luxury while studying in Japan, I was just wondering… If the people knew about this, the general secretary would sincerely praise him for being a truly honest and innocent leader, even without ideological education.
– I don’t need a mouthful. And since my body was bitten there, I don’t want to do it any more. By the way, have you completed the business in Room 39?
– Yes, that’s right. Opium and counterfeit dollars have been a problem since they couldn’t find anyone to buy them, but they couldn’t sell it anywhere, so it was a problem, but friends from Afghanistan were looking for raw materials and equipment to start a new business. I wonder what dollars the sheep herders in the desert are carrying so much… Anyway, I managed to pass it on for a price that is not disappointing.
After these twists and turns, the 29 MiGs newly deployed to the Air Force of the People’s Army were adorning the front pages of the newly refurbished republic’s mass media, including the Korean Central Broadcasting System and the Rodong Sinmun.
With the power of the media, which has greatly improved the transmission scale and time, the 29 MiGs were already being talked about as regulars in the children’s game of flying around the alleys of Pyongyang.
Then one day, when Jang Seong-taek entered the secretary’s office with a nervous face, Jung-hwan felt that what he had been waiting for, even though he was afraid in his heart, had arrived.
“…Comrade General Secretary, an urgent report has been sent from a large country. That… remember two months ago, college comrades protested in Tiananmen Square? Comrade Deng Xiaoping seems to have taken a hard line to suppress it.”
“…how many people died?”
“There is a lot of talk in various places… If we take the testimonies of comrades from the Chinese embassy and foreign diplomats together… it is likely that more than 20,000 people were killed…”
“…20,000 people?”
Junghwan’s face hardened at the amount of damage far greater than expected.
But the shock did not end there.
“And… that…”
“What else? Is there anything else I don’t know?”
“…It is not yet known to the general public in a large country…but, as a result of investigations by diplomatic officials and military comrades at the Chinese embassy in China, it seems that Comrade Zhao Ziyang, General Secretary, is also dead.”
“…………”
Tuuk.
As a result of multiple shocks, Junghwan dropped the pen he was holding on the floor.
But he soon regained his composure and asked Jang Seong-taek.
“…how did that happen? There is no way the Chinese authorities would have deliberately tried to kill even their general secretary…”
“That’s it… It seems that General Secretary Zhao Ziyang was mixed with the crowd to stop the clash between students and soldiers at the protest site until the end, and the suppression force didn’t know and fired a salvo…”
“……”
At Jang Sung-taek’s heavy report, Jung-hwan wrapped his forehead around for a moment and remembered the face of the old man who gave him sincere advice the last time.
Somehow, when I sent him away, I felt something ominous, but it seemed that the foreboding was right.
The Chinese leadership seemed to have reacted much harsher than he had expected and known from the original history.
‘Calm down, in any case, this is an opportunity to subdue the phone if used well. On the contrary, thanks to China’s rampage, it became easier for me to move.’
“We should convene a meeting of the Politburo, and we should discuss how to respond to this.”
“I got it, comrade general secretary.”
“Oh, and……”
“……?”
“Don’t forget to call the ambassador of Onupdam as well.”
“That’s it……………”
“Huh, that’s…!!!”
Short screams and moans erupted throughout the conference room as the video, obtained by the Chinese embassy through a Western journalist, was played.
Junghwan also stiffened his body at the sight completely different from what was in his head.
After the tank passed, only the remains of an unrecognizable human and a long line of blood remained.
“………I heard you said that you got this video from the Western press right now, right? Where are you?”
“It was reported not only in CNN, but also in the New York Times, Washington Post, NHK in Japan, BBC in Japan, Le Figaro in France, and the Korea Daily in South Korea.”
“I will. What are the reactions?”
Even if you don’t ask this question, you still know the answer.
In fact, for this time, it seemed that everyone in the conference room of our company was sharing Junghwan’s murmuring in his heart.
“……It’s the worst. Now, the West… No, all the mouthpieces of the former capitalist camp are all accusing China with one voice. In the editorial section of the American newspaper, there was even an article saying that the free world, led by the United States, should unite to declare war on China and rescue the persecuted Chinese people.”
“……Only the West? A socialist camp like ours? Director Kim Yong-geon, comrades in the Soviet Union, don’t you have anything to say about what’s going on in the great country right now?”
At this question from Junghwan, a subtle atmosphere circulated on the table in the conference room for a moment.
Jang Seong-taek, the moderator of today’s meeting and who has answered Jung-hwan’s questions so far, also hesitated for a moment to answer.
Maybe it was because he was groaning inwardly because a prophecy that wasn’t his own recently had been hit.
– Comrade Zhang, how is Beijing these days? Comrade Jang, there are a lot of strings there, so it seems like you know a lot of news that you can’t hear from the mission…
– ….the air is so bloody. After Comrade General Secretary took office, I heard that there were harsh opinions that the Soviet Union smashed their backs. Still, the mainstream opinion was that the relationship with the Soviet Union should be sharpened and China’s interests should be ensured.
– ……..Then you are saying that the hardliners have now taken over Beijing and the area around Comrade Deng Xiaoping? No, I see. The same thing is happening over there as in our republic.
– That’s right. This is my judgment, but… To put it bluntly, the generals of the People’s Liberation Army, who were slowly losing their positions amid Comrade Deng Xiaoping’s reform and opening-up route, must have felt like they were holding a rope in hell when Comrade General Secretary and Frunze’s bastards launched a coup. Wasn’t it true that Joseon, a large country, or the military had to have an enemy to survive?
‘After this, I had no choice but to cling to the general secretary even more. What the damn bastards! That’s why some people can’t be trusted with 10 percent!’
Jang Seong-taek poured his double lust on China’s sudden action, which he secretly believed was behind him.

No matter how hard Hong Gye-seong and the military officers are now, he believed that as long as the general secretary supported a reform and opening-up policy similar to that of China, the head of the organization and leadership would one day become the second-in-command of the republic.
However, due to the current situation in Tiananmen Square, the day when China will reform and open up and be incorporated into the Western economy, including the United States, will come (at least for the time being).
“….they seem to be keeping their silence, but the fact that there is not even a statement of support for China, which has always been formally announced, seems to be paying attention to the West even in the Soviet Union. ….below, no matter how friendly a country is on the ideological front, it would be impossible to openly support this kind of thing.”
The lamented words of Foreign Minister Kim Yong-geon accurately summarized how the world currently views China.
China and Deng Xiaoping are almost the renaissance of the Asian version of the Nazis now in Europe and America, and in most countries around the world that have introduced some degree of democracy.
‘It’s more than ‘genius Ilwoo…’
It was the same with Junghwan, in a situation where a smile was not a smile.
He knew in advance that the Tiananmen Square massacre would happen, and even waited.
Although he felt human sympathy for Zhao Ziyang, who stood on the side of the protesters as in the original history, was overthrown and was placed under house arrest until his death, he did not say anything.
However, seeing Deng Xiaoping and the Chinese leadership reacting more harshly to the protesters than he had expected, Jung Hwan could not help recalling the situation in China that he had heard about through Jang Song-thaek not long ago.
‘Is this the butterfly effect? Do you think that Kim Jong-il’s death and my reign had an impact on China’s internal power landscape and foreign policy?’
Of course, to him who was preparing for the reform and opening up of North Korea, and to North Korea, China was a friend of the present and a competitor of the future.
It is natural that he should be happy to see his competitor fall apart, but Jeonghwan was not a person who was happy to see a person being crushed by a tank.
However, as a returnee and leader of North Korea…
“Comrade General Secretary, we must also express our position. Once the crowd has disbanded, it is certain that China will soon seek support as a member of the socialist camp. Making a decision is…”
“…………”
As Jeonghwan seemed to be in thought as he tapped the desk for a moment, the Politburo conference room fell into silence.
Everyone just understood what the question meant.
Depending on what Jung Hwan says, whether he issues a statement of support or a statement of criticism, Hyang-u’s diplomatic relations with China will be determined.
And his silence did not last long.
Before I knew this situation, I had already decided what kind of attitude I would take.
“Call Comrade Onupdam Ambassador, I have something to tell Comrade Deng Xiaoping through him .”
