It is no wonder that President Galtieri is very unhappy: now Argentina has been overwhelmed by the British attack, and the economic pressure has overwhelmed them. However, for the sake of personal fame and selfish interests, these guys in the navy dare to challenge the United States, which has the strongest military strength in the world, and they really don't know how to write dead words.

The US top brass was equally stunned by the surprise attack on its own fleet and its huge losses.

After the fleet was attacked, the Pentagon immediately took relevant measures while being shocked: On the one hand, they sent a diplomatic note to Argentina, strongly condemning Argentina's provocative actions, declaring that the US ** team would counterattack the Argentine army at an appropriate time, and demanding that the Argentine government severely punish the perpetrators. On the other hand, the Pentagon ordered the wounded fleet to immediately turn around and offset two hundred nautical miles to the east, and at the same time sail the USS Lexington anti-submarine aircraft carrier back home, and send another small aircraft carrier fleet to replenish the original fleet.

Both of these news surprised Guo and made the world in an uproar. Dignitaries from various countries have issued statements one after another on this issue, some condemning and some agreeing, some gloating, and some worried. More dignitaries hope that the warring parties will exercise restraint and hope that the dispute will be resolved through negotiations.

The most intriguing is the move of the Soviet Union: the Soviet Foreign Minister made an urgent visit to Syria and Argentina.

In response to the foreign minister's surprise visit, the Soviet government declared that the purpose of its visit was to maintain world peace and urged all countries to calm down.

However, the overwhelming majority of the world's discourse held that the purpose of the Soviet Foreign Minister's urgent visit was not for peace, but for money, to sell arms. Because the Soviet Union itself was a destroyer of peace, the war in Afghanistan was launched by them for no reason, it was a big country's naked military aggression against a small country, and their actions were a shameless violation of the UN Charter, how could they have the face to settle disputes and advocate peace? There is also no ability and charisma to solve these two wars.

World public opinion believed that the Soviet Foreign Minister's urgent visit was due to the fact that the Soviet Union had discovered that participants in the two hot spots were competing to buy Chinese weapons, and they were now largely excluding Soviet weapons.

If Argentina was not interested in Soviet weapons before, it has not changed much. The Syrian military, which used to purchase Soviet arms on a large scale, not only no longer orders Soviet weapons, but also claims to suspend the procurement contracts it has signed with the Soviet Union. In particular, the procurement of anti-aircraft missiles, anti-ship missiles, surface-to-surface missiles, tanks, radars, artillery, and other weapons has been suspended. In order to maintain the traditional friendship between the two countries, they can still procure some conventional weapons, such as guns, mines, artillery shells, etc.

However, everyone knows that not all arms (arms) are highly profitable, or that missiles have the highest profit margins. The profits of missiles, especially new missiles, are several, tenfold, or even dozens of times that of conventional weapons, and the profit earned from selling one missile is more than the profit earned from selling a ship of guns.

Now there are not many projects in which the USSR can make money internationally. In addition to selling arms (arms), it is the sale of nascent resources. Although the Soviet Union is a truly vast country in the world, with endless mineral and oil resources buried under the vast land, and a huge number of forest resources on the ground, no matter how much of these resources are extracted, there will be less. What's more, extracting resources also requires inputs, labor, and transportation, and the profits earned are not high. If even the traditional arms export program was interrupted, the Soviet Union's embarrassment would be even worse.

What's more, this guy who eats from his own plate is China, his own enemy, what does this make the Soviet Union embarrassed? Therefore, the Soviet top brass believed that Syria, the arms (arms) market, must be preserved, and must not be ceded to the Chinese. The performance of the Soviet SAM-6 missile is really not very good, but the performance of the SAM-9 is good. How can you Syria not buy it?

Also, how can the missiles of the Chinese be better than those of the USSR? They themselves are imitations of Soviet missiles, okay? In the battle in the Bekaa Valley, the reason why Chinese missiles were able to shoot down Israeli planes was not because of the good performance of Chinese missiles, but because of the good use of Iraqi officers and soldiers. The Syrian missile forces did not shoot down the Israeli planes, but suffered heavy losses, not that the Soviet missiles were bad, but that the Syrian commanders were too stupid!

Does Syria want to buy it? I'm going to force you to buy it! The Soviet Union was not yet so weak that it could not control its own little brother.

As for Argentina, it is different from Syria. It has been following the United States, and most of the weapons it buys are American. The purpose of the Soviet Foreign Minister's visit was, of course, to win over the country that wanted to buy American weapons. At the same time, the foreign minister also shouldered a political mission, that is, to move Argentina to defect from the Western camp and join the camp of the Soviet Union. During his visit to Wèn, the Soviet Foreign Minister will be instructed to inform the Argentine Government that the Soviet Union is Argentina's strong backing and can make its greatest contribution to Argentina's efforts against Britain and the United States.

And. The Soviet Foreign Minister would also remind President Galtier that in this world, only the Soviet Union is qualified to be their backing.

In fact, before the outbreak of the Falklands War, the Soviet Union extended an olive branch to Argentina, suggesting that the Soviet Union could help Argentina deal with Britain. However, the Argentine top brass has illusions about the United States, believing that President Galtier has a close relationship with President Reagan of the United States. The official relations between the two sides were good, and it was assumed that the United States would stand on a neutral side even if it did not help Argentina after the outbreak of war. Therefore, they ignored the flattery thrown by the Soviet Union, for fear of offending the United States by accepting the Soviet Union.

After the outbreak of the Falklands War, Argentina and Britain fought a big fight, and the Soviet Union was of course happy to see it and welcomed Argentina with open arms again, but Argentina still did not agree, because not only did they not want to provoke the United States, but they also did not want to provoke the Soviet Union's enemy -- China, which was China's anti-ship missile-YJ-0 missile -- to help the weak Argentina, so that it could draw with the powerful Britain and gain a slight upper hand. Although China's missile prices have been raised shamelessly, if China cuts off the missile sales channel, then they will die.

But now the situation is completely different, the Argentine Navy has rashly made a move with the United States, slapped the United States hard, and also surprised the Soviet Union, and the Soviet leader was eager to hug President Galtieri and kiss him fiercely. But the depressed President Galtieri knew that he had to make a choice now.

Strictly speaking, President Galtier has no choice, only one way to go:

To his left are the patriotic people who have been inspired by the victory in the war, who have a strong sense of national pride and inflated national self-confidence, and the Argentine army is invincible and the Argentine people are invincible under the propaganda of the official media. President Galtiron does not dare to compromise with the United States at all. If he says something to compromise, he will either be torn to pieces by the fanatical populace or will be discredited in the upcoming election.

To his right are the officers and men of the Navy, who were scheming and finally slapped the US ** team in the face, achieving a huge record that other countries could not even imagine, and making outstanding military exploits for the nation and the country. If you President Galtier do not give the Navy a reward, you will even have to sell the Navy to the United States, and you will apologize to the United States for the actions of the Navy.

Behind him is the American ** team who is screaming for revenge. As we all know, the US ** team is the strongest army in the world, and it is also an army that must repay its teeth, and they have suffered such a big loss under the sneak attack of the weak Argentine Navy, it is impossible not to fight hard, at least to earn back face. President Galtier, constrained by public opinion and the navy, was unable to compromise with the United States at all, so he could only grit his teeth and puff up his waist and make a tough statement. But in his heart, he knew that Argentina was not an opponent of the United States at all, and that people really wanted to fight Argentina, as long as they took it seriously, Argentina would not be enough for people to look at at at them.

Therefore, President Galtier cannot be left, right, or backward, and the only thing he can go is to rush forward. In this way, he had to accept the olive branch extended by the Soviet Union.

Although he did not want to deal with the Soviet Union, he must now use the Soviet Union as a bargaining chip with the United States. Moreover, among the five permanent members of the UN Security Council, France is following the United States and Britain, China only wants to bury its head in economic construction, and does not want to take the lead, and the only one left to help Argentina is the Soviet Union. Besides, even if the move to get close to the Soviet Union provokes China, Argentina has already stored a lot of Chinese anti-ship missiles purchased from the IIC company at a high price, and it can still fight a few times, and for the time being it is not afraid that China will blame Argentina for being close to the Soviet Union.

The thought of inviting the Soviet Foreign Minister to visit Wèn made President Galtier's heart greasy as if he had eaten a fly, but there was no way, who would call himself the president of a small country. The fate of a small country must be linked to the interests of a big country, and it can only find a big tree as a backer, and can only be a pawn of a big country at a certain stage, which is the sorrow of a small country.

……

Guo did not think too much about the relationship between these countries. These are all things for the central bigwigs to consider. In his visit, the Soviet Union's contacts with Argentina were beneficial and harmless to China: the Soviet Union's aggressiveness, Argentina's defection, and the damage to the navies of the United States and Britain would all increase China's weight in the eyes of Western countries and reduce the resentment caused by China's large export of anti-ship missiles to Argentina.

He fully foresaw that with the increase in Soviet involvement, China would be better integrated into the West and would be able to reap benefits that it could not have before.

Now he was stunned by a secret letter sent by the staff: "Ah-, how can the organization transfer me there?" ”
