Chapter 625: Twin Pillar Strategy

It doesn't seem like a big deal from the letter, but the information inside is not as simple as it seems. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe Cuban policy of the United States is to accept Cuban refugees unconditionally, and the prisoners of the Soviet bloc in Cuba are certainly not within this scope, and once these people become Cuban citizens, it means that what Serov and Castro said a long time ago has worked. The Castro brothers are ready to use this group to give the United States a counterattack.

Not long after, Raul Castro, who was in Havana, received a reply from Serov. It didn't say anything, but said that he didn't mind these people becoming Cuban citizens, which meant that he had no connection with this matter. At the same time, he said some words to pay attention to safety in some obscure places, tacitly acknowledging the fact that this group of people is already Cuban, which means that you can dispose of these people at will.

"I have already contacted Comrade Serov, a member of the Presidium of the Central Committee of the USSR, and he has acquiesced in the fact that these people have become Cuban citizens, and we can send these people to the United States as planned." Raul Castro quickly told his brother about this, indicating that he would not be stopped by the Soviet Union. Of course, the Soviet Union will not stop it, and this matter was first proposed by Serov, but the Soviet Union has not mentioned it again in recent years, on the contrary, the Cuban side has been considering this issue.

The Soviet Union, the GDR, Poland, Romania and other Warsaw Pact countries had just about one million prisoners in Cuba, including schizophrenics, prisoners, and some religious and intellectuals. The intellectuals were mainly from other countries except the Soviet Union, and Serov was not too embarrassed to deal heavily with the intellectuals of the Soviet Union himself, but he did not delay him from purging the internal affairs ministries of other countries to clean up these disobedient people, who were all sent to Cuba for labor reform.

"If Che Guevara was here, he would have agreed with our decision." Raul Castro saw that his brother was still hesitating, and went further to mention their other comrade-in-arms. Died in Che Guevara, Bolivia. Che Guevara was a very important friend to the two brothers. Although there was a disagreement later, Castro still took a fancy to this friend, and after Che Guevara was arrested, he also tried to rescue him, but in the end he could not save his comrade.

"Well, as Serov said, pay attention to safety, send these people to the United States, open all the ports, including Mariel, provide all the ships on the coastline, and wait for the right time to send them away. All ships fly our flag so that the U.S. government doesn't intercept them. Castro sighed and made up his mind, "Serov obviously doesn't want to take this responsibility, then we will directly admit that this is our unilateral decision, and I believe that he will find an opportunity to compensate us in the future." Gather together the mentally ill and criminal elements in our whole country, and send them away this time, so as not to drag our country back in the future......"

Since the victory of the Cuban Revolutionary War, the United States has been blockading and sanctioning Cuba, embargoing and subverting Cuba in a vain attempt to overthrow the Cuban regime and establish a pro-US regime. At the same time, it has continued to lure Cubans out of Cuba, smear Cuba to the whole world, train Cuban rebels, recruit mercenaries in the hope of dislought the Cuban regime. The Americans also provided political asylum to Cuban **********, causing large numbers of people to flee to Florida after the victory of the Cuban Revolution. Every year, 100,000 Cubans come to Miami from Havana by various means, and these people are among the most qualified people in Cuba, including intellectuals, doctors, and skilled workers.

Every year, the country lacks 100,000 people, which has a very negative impact on Cuba, so Castro has often remembered what Serov said when he came to Cuba in recent years, and his desire to counter the United States through an operation has become more and more urgent. If it weren't for Serov, Castro would have thought about it sooner or later, but someone reminded him that the historical Mariel smuggling incident was staged ten years earlier and the scale was expanded tenfold.

Castro let his younger brother still plan the operation in secret, which of course requires the cooperation of one person. Serov asked Zinev to rotate the KGB's intelligence officers in Cuba and loosen surveillance on Cuba to a certain extent. As an enforcer, this time the KGB had to open up a hole and let Castro play freely.

"In the future, Miami will become an Eastern European city, think about how exciting it is, I finally sent the legal bandit group in the Soviet Union to the United States, and the Soviet mafia that will run rampant in the world will not exist in the future, and the gangsters in the United States will usher in fresh blood, Americans don't thank me, after all, you are the hope of mankind." Serov, who didn't know anything about it, compared the straight-line distance between Cuba and Miami on the map, and felt that the world was so wonderful.

At that time, the explosion of crime in Miami will only be a trivial matter, you must know that among the more than one million people, many people can be bought, these people will not do anything after they arrive in the United States, intellectuals will find that the United States is not a paradise, religious people can spread the doctrine of peace religion in the United States, as for those criminals, they will do whatever they break the law. The United States does not ban guns, believing that the ancestors of these mafias will develop faster in the United States than in the Soviet Union.

The KGB had already prepared some necessary conditions, such as storing a lot of scrapped ships in Cuba that were almost old, and enough lifebuoys for each person, so as long as Cuba decided to do so, it would certainly not have to worry about running out of ships.

"I have been detaining these people for almost ten years, and this time I will compensate you and send you to the country of freedom." Cuba was able to take the initiative to do this, which was tantamount to throwing off a huge problem for the Soviet Union. These people were already out of sight and out of mind in the eyes of the Soviet Union, and wished they would never come back in Cuba.

The opportunity soon came, and while Castro was making relevant preparations, US President Nick visited Iran and was warmly welcomed by Iranian Shah Pahlavi in Tehran, and the two sides reaffirmed the traditional friendly relations between the United States and Iran. The United States also cherishes Iran as an ally and expects Iran to exert greater strength and play a more important role in the situation in the Middle East.

Pahlavi was at this critical moment of the White Revolution, and Iran was still in a period of benign development. For Pahlavi, who was ambitious at this time, he needed someone to recognize his achievements, and no one was more suitable than the president of the United States. And Nixon also happened to need the power of Iran, if the United States still resisted the attack of the Soviet Union, it would definitely drag down its domestic economy, which has been a recognized fact within the United States, but the United States could not quickly run away without saying a word, but to drag down the Soviet Union by building a defense system, so that it could get a chance to breathe.

What does the United States want Iran to do? First, to contain the Soviet Union; Second, to guarantee the interests of Western oil companies in Iran. For the first request, Pahlavi did it well, and for the neighbors of the USSR, the threat of the USSR did not need to be emphasized by anyone. But for the second point, Pahlavi has his own little calculations.

As the leader of a country, Pahlavi was first and foremost a nationalist. During his tenure, Pahlavi even celebrated the 2,500th anniversary of the founding of the Persian Empire. As a Persian, he was deeply proud. However, in the eyes of the Iranian people, no matter how loudly he proclaims the greatness of the Persians, it cannot change the fact that he is a puppet raised by the United States.

In his speech at the Iranian royal palace, Nixon expressed the importance of Iran for the first time, saying, "We believe that Iran under the rule of Shah Pahlavi can completely replace the role of the United States as the rule-maker of the Persian Gulf." We will establish an equal relationship with Iran, and we, the United States, are friends with Iran and will support Iran to become a world power. ”

In a private meeting that followed, Nixon said that Iran was no less important to the United States than Israel. And it will soon provide a batch of military aid to Iran to help Iran become a military power in the Middle East.

"After the British retreat, Iran can completely replace the British defense force and contribute to the stabilization of the Middle East." Pahlavi also spoke out his thoughts, and he wanted Iran to replace the British military vacuum and become the policeman of the Persian Gulf.

Nixon agreed that Iran would be best able to fill the vacuum when Britain was already doomed to withdraw.

Nixon had already thought of the strategic fulcrum of the United States in the Middle East at this time, and in the face of the general pro-Soviet situation of the military powers in the Middle East, Nixon pinned his hopes on Iran, using Saudi oil to stimulate the economy, and using Iran's military power to protect Saudi Arabia to protect the interests of the United States.

He did not know that Moscow had decided that the Soviet Union would complete its trilateral strategy by providing military assistance to Syria, Iraq, and Egypt as long as the Iraqi Communist Party took control of the stability of the country. In this comparison, in terms of military strength, the Soviet Union still has a certain advantage, and the United States only has Turkey and Iran, as for Saudi Arabia's combat effectiveness, it is negligible, but Turkey and Iran both border the Soviet Union, and the advantage of the Soviet Union is a geographical advantage.

Nixon's trip to the Middle East was mainly to establish a network to defend against the Soviet Union, and the United States contained the Soviet Union in a total of three, one was NATO in Europe, which was the most important one, and the remaining two organizations were one in Southeast Asia and one in the Middle East. But they are all incomplete organizations, Southeast Asia lacks Indonesia, and the Middle East lacks Iraq, and this kind of defense organization has loopholes. Nixon had no choice but to make up for it.

Taking advantage of Nixon's foreign visit, the Castro brothers had already completed all the preparations in Cuba. When Nixon arrived in Saudi Arabia, the two brothers decided to act. (To be continued.) )
