Yeltsin and his entire team can undoubtedly be said to be pro-Western.

Inside the nascent Russian government, there was an atmosphere of naivety. Many Russians believe that the boycott of Russia by Western countries is only due to differences in the ideological field. As soon as Russia abandons confrontation in the ideological field, Western countries will sincerely help them.

The Soviet Union undoubtedly protected its own citizens a little too well.

This pervasive infantile disease pervades the main posts of a government, even within Russia's parliament. No, or should I say that the members of the Russian parliament who are now able to enter the Russian parliament are generally "social elites" who think this way. Of course, these people will have another name in China in later generations - public intellectuals.

From the very beginning of Russia's independence, the mood of these people can be imagined. After the retreat of the CPSU, the citizens of Moscow poured into the streets, cheering and hugging each other, rejoicing in the aftermath of the catastrophe and looking forward to a better life in the future.

When the news came that Western countries were negotiating with Russia and had agreed to provide assistance, Moscow thundered with joy, as if great Russia would soon become a paradise on earth like Western countries.

However, news of the negotiations began to disappear from the newspapers in Moscow, but the cold weather did not hesitate.

The so-called aid from Western countries seems to be a spring dream. Muscovites, who were awakened by the cold, found in a daze that after waking up from the spring dream, those beautiful words in Western countries could neither be turned into a big lieba, nor into hot water in the heating.

Aid that thunders but does not rain has been slow for a long time, and Moscow, which is home to more than 15 million people, is an active volcano.

In this case, even the most hardcore pro-Westerners face such a problem.

Yeltsin and his gang did not expect to take such a step at first. The assistance from Western countries was delayed, and at first they thought it was just a matter of procedure. In the developed countries of the free world, everyone has a legal system! Everything must be done with procedural justice, and of course it is impossible to do whatever is said immediately.

In this way, the most precious period of time before the winter was meaninglessly wasted by Yeltsin. And even after vaguely guessing the truth, they simply don't have the courage to brush the tiger whiskers of Western countries at this moment.

After Moscow gradually grasped the power structure of the upper echelons of Russia, in the face of the indignation and dangerous situation of the lower strata, these former opposition public intellectuals, who had already ascended to power, threw out another argument.

"The reason why the Western countries are unwilling to help us is that the CPSU still threatens the righteous and free world! As long as we completely eliminate the remnants of the CPSU, then the Western countries will surely realize that we are sincere friends!"

Under the command of this guiding ideology, Moscow nominally issued a series of nasty resolutions against the CPSU.

The CPSU was declared illegal, the assets of the CPSU were frozen, and the nationwide arrest of those who still recognized the status of the CPSU began. In addition to this, Moscow began to actively mobilize its troops in preparation for a military operation against the Far Eastern part of Schernin's control.

However, the final result of this series of actions is equivalent to throwing a piece of metal sodium into boiling water.

With a bang, a tragic explosion occurred in the entire Russian society at once.

First of all, in the presence of Schönin, the CPSU was not as incapable of fighting back, as it was historically. Moscow dared to declare the CPSU illegal, and Schönin gave the CPSU an absolute majority of seats in the local councils in the elections to the Far Eastern Republics.

Moscow wanted to freeze the assets of the CPSU, and the agents of the KGB began to expose the personal privacy of the top officials in Moscow to the press. Including illegal income, housing, children's jobs, foreign accounts, and even some applause videos, Yeltsin's team was confused.

If you really want to play shamelessly, how can Moscow, which is a novice, compare to the CPSU with the support of KGB?

Moreover, there are still many people in Russia who have not given up their identity as the CPSU, and in the final analysis, it has only been more than 40 years since the end of the Great Patriotic War! World War II veterans with medals on their chests, radiation sickness officers and soldiers from Chernobyl, and disabled veterans from Afghanistan have not given up the distribution of materials because they have pulled money out of their teeth.

However, under Moscow's new policy, if these people dared to accept pensions and aid from the CPSU, they were accomplices of the CPSU. At the least, supplies will be confiscated, and if you dare to resist law enforcement, you will simply be thrown into an overcrowded prison.

In such an atmosphere of white terror, the entire Russian society was immediately torn apart. It is recognized that the conflict between the CPSU and the public elite has rapidly developed to the point of blatant physical annihilation in broad daylight.

Moscow, in an extremely unfavorable situation, is trying in vain to completely resolve the Far East by superiority in military force. However, not to mention the sense of identity of the Russian army brought about by the attitude of the CPSU towards veterans, just marching across the Trans-Siberian Railway to the Far East is already an infeasible task for the Russian army, which has nothing.

The Ministry of Defense and the General Staff on Arbat Avenue openly declared to Yeltsin that an attack on the Far East would require the mobilization of at least 100,000 army and air forces, and that the Northern Fleet would need to cross more than half the world to launch an attack on the Pacific Fleet. Unless there is $20 billion in funding, the soldiers will definitely be more willing to rush into the Kremlin than to run thousands of kilometers to fight the CPSU.

For the nascent Russia, it is too expensive to solve the Far Eastern problem.

Compared with an expedition of thousands of kilometers on land, the navy is surprisingly cost-effective. Compared to the poor Far East, where there is only one life left, the level of naval power in the Scandinavian countries on the Baltic Sea coast is almost none.

Even in the German Navy, the most powerful battleships were only frigates, not a single destroyer. And the total number of frigates can be counted with both hands, which is inferior to the Chinese Navy in the air space at the same time.

The only thing that can be put on the table is the German submarine force, which is acceptable in terms of quantity and quality. But now Hans is no longer a wolf pack under the leadership of Dönitz.

Moreover, no matter how powerful the conventional submarine force is, will it be able to break through the perfect anti-submarine system in the Baltic Sea? Even if it can, the Hans civil servants who commute to and from work on time will not have the heart to fight with Mao Zi, who is about to starve to death.

Yeltsin wanted to embark on this "rogue" national path because there was no way out.

"General, we have reached the sea off the island of Rügen, and the Øresund Strait lies ahead!"

At the junction of the Baltic Sea and the North Sea, Denmark, Sweden and Germany share borders here. It is the busiest sea route in Northern Europe, home to the Danish capital Copenhagen and the Øresund Strait, making it the most developed region in the West. From the perspective of people's quality of life, it can even be said to be the most enviable place on earth.

Nineties, of course.

Kosov sat in the command position and was silent for a moment, he slowly raised his hand and waved it downwards with difficulty: "I order, publish the announcement of the exercise on the public channel!"

"Ships of all countries, please pay attention, this is the Russian Baltic Fleet! The following announcement of our army's exercise is issued, and all ships are requested to leave the exercise sea area composed of the following four points of latitude and longitude ...... below."

Amid the echoing announcement of the exercise for a long time, Kosov took a deep breath, grabbed the intercom in front of him and began to give orders to the whole fleet: "I order the whole fleet to immediately enter combat readiness, turn on the radar, and warm up the weapons. Weapons are distributed on the ship, and all personnel are on duty!"

"Any foreign ship entering or leaving the Øresund without permission is an attack on the Baltic Fleet!"

"Destroyer Tenacious, warning shots at ships that have not yet left the exercise area!"

……

The news of the Russian Baltic Fleet's appearance in the Øresund Strait for exercises is like detonating a 10-million-ton hydrogen bomb over the international community.

In fact, this is not an adjective, it is almost the last sanity of Maozi before he goes completely crazy.

Although the Soviet Union has collapsed, the nuclear weapons in the hands of Russia are still enough to destroy humanity a hundred times. If you put the big ** to the corner, no one knows if the crazy hairy bears are really going to ask the earth to "eat me**" next!

Not only did the international ships near the Øresund disappear in the shortest possible time, but the news reached NATO countries, and even the United Nations urgently convened a closed-door meeting.

Yeltsin's envoy, almost with red eyes and slapping the table, gave an ultimatum at the negotiating table with NATO countries.

The first billion dollar loans had to arrive within a week.

At the same time, Russia needs emergency assistance of at least 100,000 tons of meat.

To this end, Russia agreed to open all markets in the country, allow unhindered entry and outflow of foreign capital, promise to auction the property of government-run enterprises, and impose no restrictions on foreign capital.

One of the two poles of the world, it has fallen to the point where it is no different from the thieves who robbed the road.

No, there are still differences. When the bandits robbed the road, they didn't have to take out their own cottages and the ladies of the village, and choose the robbed broilers at will.

Russia's external and internal efforts can be said to have been clearly seen by the upper echelons of NATO countries.

But when the nuclear powers act as scoundrels, who can, who dares to ignore them?

When the news of the Baltic Fleet's blockade of the Øresund reached the public media, the shadow of nuclear warfare rooted in the hearts of the Cold War generation suddenly revealed its unparalleled reality.

Of course, some people are clamoring to teach the blind hairy bear a lesson! However, for more ordinary people, buying a billion dollars for peace is really not an unacceptable choice.

The barefoot ones are not afraid to wear shoes, and the desperate posture of the woolly bear makes the vast majority of humans tremble.

In particular, the countries on the front lines of the Cold War that are closest to the events of this exercise -
