Chapter 249: One Stone Stirs Up a Thousand Waves
The news that the Soviet Union was clamoring for a nuclear strike against China made the hearts of the whole world hang. The Chinese people, with the top leader as the core, are calm and calm about this. The supreme leader said with a heartfelt smile to the leaders of the Eastern European fraternal parties who had come to China to be Soviet lobbyists: "Please tell the Soviet comrades that you are not going to fight a nuclear war!" The atomic bomb is indeed powerful, but the contemptible people are not afraid. The atomic bomb is a paper tiger, and it seems that it can scare many people. The United States has it, and the Soviet Union has it," the supreme chief stretched out his right hand and put his thumb on the tip of his little finger and said very confidently: "We also have a little bit of this." ”
The supreme chief took a puff of his cigarette and said: "Dropping an atomic bomb is unpopular. The United States lost two atomic bombs in Ben, thus giving the United States a bad reputation, and most of the people in the world are opposed to the use of atomic bombs to kill people and to a nuclear war. ”
Then, the supreme chief said with pride: "There are some things that seem to be powerful, but they are nothing but paper tigers. The reason is that they are detached from the people, have no truth, and have received much help and little help for the unjust. You see, wasn't Hitler very strong, knocked down. U.S. imperialism is also very strong, and it is nothing for us to stand up to him. Was the Soviet Union also strong? It's incredibly powerful. It was originally a European country, but now it has expanded its territory to the whole earth, infiltrated China, and robbed China of a large amount of land. There are too many territories occupied by us, including those occupied by the Tsarist Empire and the Soviet Union. We can't count the territories we occupy, and what we want to recover now is only the bare minimum as stipulated by international law, and that is where there is a clear historical basis for belonging to China. When I went to the Soviet Union in 1949, Stalin avoided me for fear of mentioning those unequal treaties, because the Soviet Union occupied too much space. They took away our Outer Mongolia, and they took a piece of land from your Romania called Bessarabia. It also carved out a part of Germany, which was part of East Germany. Drive all the Germans there to the west. They also carved a piece of Poland for Belarus. A piece was also allocated from Germany to Poland to compensate for the land transferred from Poland to Belarus. They also carved a piece in Finland. Whatever he can do, he will do. There were only a few people in the Soviet Union, so why did they occupy such a large place? This time, we just want to take back Outer Mongolia and the east of Lake Baikal, which they rowed a hundred years ago, including Boli, Vladivostok, and Kamchatka, and they will drop atomic bombs on us. ”
The supreme leader said loudly: If the Soviet comrades want to use atomic bombs against China's little brother, then let them use them well, and I, MZD, will sit in this room and wait for him to bomb them, even if half of the Chinese people are dead, the remaining half of the people can still rebuild our homes on the ruins, or take back the places they occupied.
Then the supreme leader calmly said to these comrades of the fraternal parties in Eastern Europe: "The Soviets should not engage in this kind of thing, because this is not conducive to the solution of the problem." The Sino-Soviet border issue is an issue left over from history, and we have always advocated that it should be resolved through comradely friendly consultations and handled in accordance with the principles of the two "Galakhan Declarations on China" proclaimed by Comrade Lenin. But the Soviets no longer listen to Lenin, do you still want to listen? ”
"Lenin was the revolutionary teacher of the proletariat, and his words were of universal guiding significance for the whole [***] movement." Everyone said one after another.
"Whether you listen or not," said the Supreme Chief, pointing to his right ear, "we still have to listen anyway." He went on to say that "the fundamental interests of the people of the entire socialist camp are identical, and we hope that the Soviet comrades will proceed from the overall situation of the entire international [***] and take a long-term view, and that we and the Soviet Union, the two great powers, will always be united." Some disunity, which is only temporary, is still the relationship between nine fingers and one finger. Even if this little unpleasantness has now occurred between us, a few shots have been made for those ridges of land, which is also temporary and partial. Problems always have to be solved. The comprehensive development of friendly relations between the Chinese and Soviet peoples is still the mainstream and the overall situation. Please go back and tell your comrades in the USSR about this.
One stone stirs up a thousand waves. This naked nuclear threat from the Soviet Union immediately caused a strong reaction all over the world.
The day after the Soviet-sponsored "Red Star" newspaper published a letter to the Soviet people, the US "Washington Post" published a news item in a conspicuous position on the first page, entitled "The Soviet Union Wants to Carry Out a Nuclear Strike on China." The report said: China and the Soviet Union, the two giants of socialism, fought over the territorial issues they left behind more than 100 years ago.
The Red Star, the throat of the Soviet military, said that at 22:30 on February 10, Moscow time, the squadron launched a fierce all-out attack on the Soviet Union at the same second on the Sino-Soviet and Sino-Mongolian borders with millions of armored troops, tens of thousands of tanks, and thousands of planes from east to west. China's group of war maniacs openly used missiles to attack strategic points in the depths of the Soviet Union, up to a depth of thousands of kilometers, which means that China launched a full-scale war of aggression against the Soviet Union. The Soviet people, who are heroes of the glorious revolutionary tradition, will rise up to resist the Chinese aggressors as they did against the German fascists, and will use the revolutionary war to eliminate the war of aggression launched by China.
The Soviet government and people will reserve the right to use all means to counter the Chinese aggressors and, if necessary, will carry out a nuclear strike destroying China's nuclear bases, China's political centers, and industrial centers, so as to resolutely and thoroughly stop China's aggressive acts.
Then the US "Washington Post" wrote in a vivid and vivid manner: According to a Soviet military authority who is inconvenient to disclose his name, Moscow is ready to launch a nuclear war against China at all costs in order to destroy China's war capability, and the Soviet army has drawn up the first batch of nuclear targets, including Yanjing, Shenyang, Changchun, Anshan, and other important industrial cities, as well as China's nuclear bases.
Wow! What would it be like if the Soviets were once asked to open Pandora's box? All of Europe and Asia will be completely destroyed. The whole world will be shrouded in nuclear haze, what a terrible scene it will be! Our world will be a martyr for this arrogant polar bear.
Shouldn't we, peace-loving people, do something at this moment to stop this extremely irresponsible madness of the Soviets?
Britain's "Times" also published an article entitled "Polar Bear Scratched by Chinese Dragon," commenting: The Soviet Union, the invincible polar bear, has learned a lesson from its socialist little brother, China
Judging by the Soviet reports, it is clear that there is a great deal of moisture. Everyone on the earth knows that after the Korean War, the Chinese [***] team began their path of modernizing elite troops, and the conventional army has always remained at about 2.5 million to 3 million, and China has not carried out large-scale troop surge operations before that. Where did millions of armored units, tens of thousands of tanks, thousands of planes come from all at once? However, China did use almost all of its regular armies in the northern theaters this time, and in the face of the lightning attack of these fierce tiger and wolf divisions of China, the Soviet Red Army, which claimed to be invincible in the world, was completely powerless and had no choice but to take out the treasure of the town -- nuclear weapons. They want to carry out a nuclear strike on China's nuclear bases, China's political center, and industrial center, and they seem to forget that China is also a nuclear power, and China's nuclear weapons are absolutely superior to the Soviets in terms of power and carrying capacity. If the Soviet Union dared to use the atomic bomb against China, it would inevitably be met with China's nuclear retaliation for the destruction of the Soviet Union. That would be a direct threat to Europe. We call on our political axe to come up with a practical way to stop this situation and to stop this self-indulgent behavior of the Soviet Union, so as to prevent the city gate from catching fire and causing damage to the fish in the pond.
Agence France-Presse correspondent in Yenching reported: At a daily press briefing held at the Yenching News Center, Chinese spokesman Major General Zhang Xiaozhong said that China's military operation was launched by China's border guards with the active cooperation of the militia against the Soviet Union to recover some of the territories occupied by the Soviet Union and Tsarist Russia. The surname of the war is a border war of limited scale.
Major General Zhang claimed that China and the Soviet Union are both socialist countries, and there are some border problems left over from history between the two countries, and the root cause of these problems is the aggressive and expansionist policy of Tsarist Russia. China had no territorial ambitions for the USSR and only wanted to reclaim the territories that belonged to them. The Chinese government and people have always pinned their hopes on a peaceful settlement of the border issue between the two countries through consultations, and have made tremendous efforts to this end with the greatest sincerity. However, the Soviet Union insisted on going its own way and categorically rejected a series of reasonable demands put forward by China, and regarded China's sincerity in the peaceful settlement of the border issue between the two countries as weak and deceitful. The territorial issue concerns China's sovereignty and is China's core interest, and when China's political axe's series of diplomatic efforts and attempts at a political settlement have failed, and China's core interests are infringed upon, the Chinese people's armed forces cannot but do something to fulfill their glorious duty to recover these territories occupied by the Soviet Union in China.
China's armed forces are fully prepared, determined, and capable of recovering lost territory and defending national unity and territorial integrity.
When asked by a reporter how China viewed the Soviet nuclear threat, the spokesman for the Chinese People's Liberation Army said that China's development of limited nuclear weapons is entirely defensive. China's consistent principle is that if anyone does not offend me, I will not offend anyone, and if anyone offends me, I will offend others.
The news of the Soviet Army's "Red Star" newspaper, Soviet Defense Minister Marshal Zhukov and First Deputy Minister Marshal Malinovsky, and Marshal Voroshilov and his gang threatening to use nuclear weapons to launch a nuclear attack on China on some semi-public "occasions" immediately aroused great concern from the US political axe.
In the oval presidential office of the White House, Eisenhower read the meeting with National Security Advisor Gordon Brown. Gray's compilation of intelligence about the Soviet Union's nuclear attack on China took off his glasses, pressed the bridge of his nose under the Yintang acupoint, and said to the assistant for national security affairs: "Tell me, what do you think about this?"
"I think that the Soviet Union is completely bluffing, the purpose of this is only a naked nuclear threat, and the Chinese will not buy the Soviets at all." Gordon. Gray took out the battle report provided by the Chinese side from his leather bag, saying: "The Soviet Union did not have the capability to carry out effective nuclear strikes against China at all, and their four ICBM launch sites in Asia were destroyed by Chinese missiles almost simultaneously at the first time when the war began, and even Marshal Netelin, commander of the Soviet Strategic Rocket Forces, was killed at the Tyuratam ICBM launch base." If China does not carry out a nuclear strike on the USSR, the USSR should have fun. ”
"Even the commander of the Soviet Strategic Rocket Forces, Marshal Nie Jielin, was killed! This Chinese started to be a little darker. Eisenhower couldn't help but be shocked and asked, "Even if the Soviets can't launch nuclear warheads with rockets, can't they still use airplanes to deliver atomic bombs?" ”
"Yes, of course, if the Soviet Union wants to launch a nuclear attack on China, it can only be dropped by bombers." Gordon. Gray put down the battle report in his hand and said, "However, it is almost unimaginable for the plane to penetrate deep into Chinese mainland." We've tried this many times. There has not been a single success in strategic locations in China. ”
"No, this point must not be taken lightly, and judging from the current situation, it is unlikely that China will use nuclear weapons first." Eisenhower said with some concern: "But what if Moscow is in a hurry to start a nuclear war at all costs, to risk a nuclear war, and to use nuclear weapons against China's attacking forces?" That would inevitably lead to full-scale retaliation from China, there is no doubt about that. What does China's nuclear counterattack mean? This means that the political, cultural, and economic centers of the European part of the Soviet Union will be destroyed, which will harm the interests of the United States, which the United States will never tolerate. ”
"So what can we do about China? China is not easy to mess with now! "Gordon. Gray said with some trepidation.
"Mr. Assistant for National Security Affairs, why should we mess with the Chinese? Wouldn't it be nice for the Chinese to poke like this in the backyard of the USSR? Eisenhower believed that the greatest threat to Western countries came from the Soviet Union, and that a war between China and the Soviet Union, two great socialist powers, was desirable, and that no matter what the outcome of the war was, the Sino-Soviet war would cause great damage to the economic development of the Soviet Union and would cause a complete collapse of the Soviet economy. Even if the USSR had won, they would no longer have been able to afford to be the boss of the socialist camp. This will inevitably lead to the total collapse of the entire socialist camp and the collapse of the Warsaw organization in particular. At that time, the United States will be able to surrender without a fight, and this is in line with the strategic interests of the West.
