Chapter 348: A Call from Moscow
The boss touched his ears, got up and said to the heads of state of several Western countries present: "Everyone, Moscow has called me, I'll go back as soon as I go!" ”
"Is the current owner of the Kremlin?" Bush Sr. interjected in surprise. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"That's right, it's this 73-year-old man, he's calling me with his sick body right now, I can't help but answer!" Mr. Deng replied with a smile
After speaking, Mr. Deng answered the phone under the guidance of the staff, and in the hall, Reagan leaned sideways and suddenly said: "It is said that the health of the one in Moscow is very poor, and he can only occasionally appear in some important meetings and activities, and his body is not competent for the daily government decisions of a country as large as the Soviet Union." Now that the war has only been going on for a few hours, the supreme leader of the Soviet Union has personally called, probably pulled up from the bed, maybe the other party has not even changed his pajamas yet! ”
Bush pursed his lips and nodded: "After the death of the previous supreme leader of the CPSU in February last year, Chernenko was the head of the General Affairs Department during the Brezhnev period, and it can be said that he was the chief steward of the CPSU, and his position was very important. However, this person's ability is mediocre, and he can sit in the position of the top leader entirely because he ranks first among all the leaders of the CPSU in terms of seniority, and because he was pushed to the top position. It is inevitable that such a terminally ill old man will be in charge of such a large empire, and I am afraid that the power of the CPSU has fallen, and there are other people who really make decisions. ”
Chernenko in the mouth of Bush Sr. only served as the leader of the CPSU for just over a year in history before he hung up, so the people of the country did not have much impression of him.
However, there is a text in the primary school textbook of the flower grower called "The Master of the Great Forest", a hunter full of survival wisdom takes the protagonist to roast grouse in the forest, telling everyone how to survive in the forest, this wonderful article is written by this Chernenko.
Just like some singers who are not popular, the articles he wrote are popular all over China, but unfortunately there are not many people who know his deity.
The hotline does not have to be held by the boss himself, both parties let the interpreter listen to the other side and then translate it.
The boss sat on the sofa in the secret room and gave the interpreter with the phone a look, and the interpreter put the microphone to his ear and asked the Kremlin in Chinese: "Is there anything that Secretary Chernenko is looking for me?" ”
The translator must completely faithfully express the meaning of the chief, this young translator is also about a hawkish figure, as the royal translator is naturally well versed in the character of the boss, imitating the boss to speak is really vivid, and the speech is unceremoniously.
After the interpreter asked a question, there was a murmuring voice in Russian on the other end of the phone, the interpreter kept nodding and asking a few words in Russian, and only after the other party finished speaking, he put down the microphone and said to the boss: "Hello, I learned the news of the Chinese army's attack on Vietnam this morning, and I am deeply saddened. What's more, Vietnam is the most important ally of the Soviet Union, both economically and militarily, such a military action by China has seriously damaged the interests of our country, so please also ask the Chinese side to withdraw its troops immediately! ”
The boss habitually lit a cigarette for himself, pondered for a while and replied: "Thank you for your call, the ambition of the Vietnamese wolf has provoked our border several times, provoked war in the Indochina Peninsula, and violated the interests of all countries on the peninsula. Here I reiterate that whether the friendship between China and the Soviet Union will be damaged or not depends on what you, the Soviet Union, do! Is it possible that a brotherly country would do something that you have a million troops in the Far East threatening the north of our country? We Chinese act very simply, friends come to be good and meat is entertained, jackals come and beat to death with a stick! ”
After the boss finished speaking, he took a puff of cigarette, and then watched the translator say his words to the other side. The signal of the telephone was very good, and everyone in the room could clearly hear the voice of an old man on the other side panting and talking, out of breath, as if he would hang up at any time because he couldn't get up in one breath.
After a while, the interpreter translated the Russian he heard again: "The Soviet Union has thousands of scientists in Hanoi who have come to the aid of Vietnam, and if the Chinese army kills or injures our personnel, then our country will definitely seek justice for our sacrifices!" In particular, the Soviet Embassy in Hanoi is a sacred and inviolable territory of the Soviet Union, and if China attacks the Embassy, it will be regarded as a declaration of war by our government, and the Soviet Army will launch a thunderous blow to pay tribute to you! ”
This is already a naked threat, or Chernenko is not energetic and too lazy to talk to the imperial capital, so he will say it bluntly. In fact, he also knew that China had the full support of the US imperialism behind it, and that the Soviet Union was a little less confident in trying to deter the Chinese army from withdrawing from Vietnam as it did last time.
After all, Vietnam is only a small pawn, and now the Soviet army is preparing for war against India and Pakistan, and there is no time to take care of Indochina.
It would be nice if Vietnam could hold off China, which would give the Soviets more time to prepare. If it can't be delayed, it doesn't matter, China will always have to consume part of its troops in Vietnam, and this is also in line with the interests of the Soviet Union at present.
Chernenko's purpose in making this call was just to keep the Soviet embassy in Hanoi, and as for Vietnam, a guy who couldn't hold up the wall in the mud, he received military aid from the Soviet Union of up to 5 billion rubles in vain, and he couldn't even hold out for ten hours, and Hanoi was almost lost, which surprised the top level of the CPSU and at the same time, he was also very disappointed in Vietnam and didn't want to invest even one ruble in this country.
Now the Soviet Union needs a lot of intelligence to analyze the way the flower growers are fighting, so that the Soviet army can be more confident when dealing with the Chinese army in India.
Hearing this, the boss couldn't help laughing, he has always been a person who eats soft and not hard, so he replied directly: "Please rest assured that Secretary Chernenko will abide by international rules, and our soldiers will not step into the Soviet Embassy in Hanoi and violate the diplomatic interests of the Soviet Union." However, it is stated here that the embassy area is controlled by the Soviet Union, and once it leaves the embassy, it is an area controlled by our army, and anyone who trespasses on our military restricted area will live or die! ”
Now that the Soviet Union has gone straight to the point, Mr. Deng is not polite and directly returns to the past, no matter what, the flower growers have the advantage this time, and they will definitely not retreat. Now the Soviet diplomats in the Hanoi embassy are hostages, and the Soviet Union can actually do nothing but negotiate with the flower growers to kill time.
At this point, the conversation that followed was basically a back-and-forth between you and me, with the Kremlin doing everything in its power to use threatening words to get China to back down, preferably with Hanoi's diplomats back home.
And the boss is constantly playing Tai Chi, looking at him, in short, he is a hostage in hand, I have it in the world!
In the end, the two sides broke up unhappily, and neither of them fell well verbally.
However, this phone call from the Soviet Union also really exposed that the Soviet army is now completely busy preparing for the war in South Asia, and it is already impossible to draw any excess strength. Otherwise, with the cruel character of Lao Maozi, it is absolutely impossible to move his mouth, and China's move against Vietnam has greatly damaged the interests of the Soviet Union, while the Soviet Union can only play lip service, which is undoubtedly abnormal.
The boss is deeply worried, the Soviet Union is really ready to take all its family property to gamble on the casino in the South Asian subcontinent this time!
With such a big stake, the Soviet Union naturally had to pour a lot of resources into it. This will undoubtedly make the pressure on the army of the flower grower even heavier, and when the time comes, it may be necessary to bet millions of troops to fight against the Soviet army, and the material consumption and casualties will be very dazzling figures predictably!
The war would bring down the Soviet Union, but it would be a feast for the West, which was in the midst of an economic crisis of overcapacity, and the war in South Asia would help them use up the excess capacity and survive the economic crisis.
In World War I and World War II, European countries stockpiled countless supplies, all of which were exhausted within a few months of the war. Having learned this lesson, the heavy industry of US imperialism has now entered the wartime mode, and it is going all out to produce all kinds of strategic materials, such as fighters, bombers, helicopters, tanks, infantry armored vehicles, anti-aircraft missiles, cruise missiles, and other heavy equipment, all of which are desperately placing orders, and the quantities are all in the unit of 10,000 units, so as to ensure an adequate supply of weapons.
Especially in India, where there are great plains, it's a good place for tanks to run wild. The Pentagon estimates that the largest tank war in human history will break out in South Asia.
A few thousand M1s may not be able to meet the needs of this war at all, maybe one or two hundred thousand, and the Chinese army must be equal to the Soviet army in terms of the number of tanks, otherwise it will suffer in a land battle.
As Chen Xu said, Lao Maozi is not Vietnam, and the air-ground integration tactics can crush small countries, but in the face of the Soviet army, which has a strong air defense force and is perverted, it may not work!
No one dares to bet on this until they actually play a few games. Therefore, the U.S. imperialists must prepare enough tanks for the flower planters to be prepared, because the best way to deal with tanks is tanks, and the king of land battles can only be defeated by using another king of land battles!
However, even if the US imperialists are a super industrial power, they must produce at full capacity, and these orders are also a very heavy burden on the US imperialist finances, but they are extremely happy for the arms dealers, and the money earned from the orders of 10,000 tanks can allow them to lie down and enjoy themselves without doing anything for the next 30 years.
It is NATO's business to prepare all the strategic materials, and the flower growers only need to prepare their troops. The most flower growers are people, and it is no problem to really launch a ruthless army to pull up 100 million troops, and Lao Maozi is a few levels behind in terms of military strength.
Without harming the economic development of the whole country, the flower growers can casually pull out two or three million troops, and more if necessary. Not so in the Soviet Union, where the population base is placed, and when the number of conscripts is large, the departure of young and middle-aged people from the production line will affect industrial production.
The Soviet Union did not have an advantage in manpower and material resources, which is also the reason why the imperial capital dared to fight hard with Lao Maozi in South Asia.
No, even Britain and France are greedy, and they have also thrown a lot of money into the table, thinking that their interests will be multiplied several times after the war and they will make a lot of money! (To be continued.) )
