Chapter 531: Downwind Smiles

At this time, a special force disembarked from the port of Jakarta, and the leader was dressed in a green military uniform, and the epaulettes on his shoulders were the abbreviation of the National Security Council, the letters of the KGB. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info understand that the military uniform of this color with the abbreviation of epaulettes indicates that this person belongs to the border guards of the KGB of the Soviet Union. The man who came down was in his forties, and the whole person looked very ordinary, and the rank of colonel showed that he was also a successful person in the army. Colonel Arkhipov, a divisional staff officer of the Far Eastern Frontier Military District of the Red Banner of the KGB.

It was a century of armed conflict. As the big brother of the socialist camp, Moscow has a keen interest in sending professionals to intervene in regional disputes. As a result, from the Whampoa Military Academy outside Wuyang City, to the Iberian Peninsula, to the depths of the tropical rainforests of Southeast Asia, people often inadvertently find a group of special characters who act mysteriously and speak with great weight, no matter how big or small their merits, they were proud of the title of "Soviet military adviser".

After Serov consulted with the Ministry of Defense, the two departments sent a large group of Soviet advisers, numbering 6,000 people, involving the army, navy, air force, and border guards, and this suggestion impressed the Ministry of Defense almost instantly. The Soviet Union itself has a tradition of sending advisory groups to intervene in the war, and this suggestion can be said to be in the right place.

"Minister Handayani, our Comrade General Political Commissar for National Security, let me bring my cordial greetings to my friends." When Colonel Arkhipov arrived at the Ministry of Internal Affairs, he met the Minister of the Interior, who was already an Indonesian giant, as he wished.

"General Serov is polite and takes me to greet him, and our friendship will last forever." Handayani laughed and said that he was the one who led the invitation to the Soviet Union to send military advisers this time. And with the consent of President Sukarno, almost without hesitation, it is not how relieved President Sukarno was with the USSR, but that there was no choice. Moreover, President Sukarno also hoped that the power of the Soviet Union would come in and balance China's influence. It is always bad to be one-sided close to a country, and he wants the influence of the USSR and China to be more balanced.

"Thank you!" Colonel Arkhipov nodded and gave a detailed account of the situation in the Soviet military advisory group. Serov discussed with the Ministry of Defense the formation of a military advisory group with military personnel from the Central Asian region. Sending ethnic minority soldiers abroad to take up this work is, of course, in the hope that the population of ethnic minorities will grow more slowly, and secondly, in the hope that the proportion of ethnic minorities in the Soviet Union will be more balanced, and the effect is still very significant.

Of course, in front of Handayani, this is another set of rhetoric, "In order to prevent conflicts between Soviet advisers and Indonesian soldiers and civilians due to different personal habits, the Soviet Union only looked for ethnic groups with similar habits from the country as members of the advisers, who also believed in peace religions before, and their habits should be similar to those in Indonesia." ”

Handayani said that Serov had thought of everything for Indonesia and repeatedly thanked his Soviet friends for their help. The first task of the Soviet military advisers to the local area was to spend a great deal of energy convincing the country's leaders to enforce military discipline and strengthen command. Over time, however, they have gradually turned a blind eye to the scattered traditions that have been cultivated in these countries over the years.

Colonel Arkhipov also knew this, and the following gave Handayani a detailed introduction to the duties of military discipline, "I am the representative of the KGB garrison, and of course the Soviet advisory group actually has its own military justice body. My partner with the General Directorate of Military Administration is mainly to clarify the responsibilities of the military justice agencies of the Red Army, they prevent members of the advisory group from violating military discipline, and we prevent them from violating military discipline, and if such a thing happens, Chairman Serov means to let the Indonesian Ministry of Internal Affairs handle it itself. In principle, we advocate freedom of love, but we also need to curb crime, and we are willing to monitor this together with our comrades from the Indonesian Ministry of Interior......"

In the days that followed, Soviet advisers landed in Jakarta and were warmly welcomed by Indonesian President Sukarno. The Military Advisory Group was ordered by the General Staff of the USSR, and its head was Lieutenant General Ivashko. President Sukarno also inspected the military advisory group to India at the Independence Square and spoke highly of the Soviet Union's move.

The news of the emergence of Soviet military forces in Indonesia is not a secret, although the US intelligence network in Indonesia has suffered heavy losses, but it cannot withstand the undisguised landing of the Soviet Union, and even a pig knows that the Soviet military forces have entered Indonesia. President Lyndon Johnson and Secretary of Defense Robert? McNamara, and the new CIA Director Richard? Helms, held talks, and took consultations on the entry of Soviet military forces into Indonesia.

Richard? Helms was the first CIA insider director to be promoted from a secret agent. After the KGB had been pushing the U.S. intelligence agencies to the ground for several years, President Lyndon Johnson felt that he should find someone who had grown up as an intelligence organization to lead the CIA, just like the KGB chairman in the Soviet Union.

"The loss of Indonesia has greatly affected our Southeast Asia strategy." Lyndon Johnson said with a wry smile that the domino theory that President Kennedy spoke of was the worst outcome of the rout of the United States in Southeast Asia. But none of the top U.S. leaders want that to happen, and Indonesia is known on the map to occupy almost half of Southeast Asia. Status is the most important thing, if the whole country is pro-Soviet, it can confront Australia in the south, and it can suppress Malaysia in the west.

Because the Indonesian Communist Party was getting stronger and stronger, the CIA took the risk of plotting a coup d'Γ©tat in Indonesia, but was eventually taught to behave by the Soviet Union's national security commissar, which also led to the resignation of the previous director of the CIA.

"In this way, we must contain the North Vietnamese attack, if we lose Indonesia and then lose South Vietnam, then the North Vietnam's southward road will also be opened, and then North Vietnam and Indonesia will easily eliminate Malaysia, which is in the middle. We've lost all of Southeast Asia. "Secretary of Defense Robert? McNamara took a tough stance.

Originally, after more than a year of war, the anti-war forces in the United States should have been in a relatively inflated state. However, because the news of Indonesia's accession to the Soviet bloc came, the loss of Southeast Asia, which the United States has been propagating, is not a hypothesis, but a real possible outcome, so the United States' main combat forces have increased their voice, and the two parties have also maintained the same position on the Vietnam War, continuing to expand their investment in the Vietnam War, and at the same time using Malaysia as a reserve base to support the American forces on the battlefield in Vietnam. Therefore, not only did the invested troops not be reduced, but the number of US troops in Malaysia was increased by 80,000, and military spending increased again.

"But we can't attack Indonesia, which is much stronger than North Vietnam. With a population of over 100 million, it is still very anti-American, and if we attack Indonesia, it may take a force of more than half a million to take shape, and the preparation time is even longer than landing in Vietnam. "CIA Director Richard? Helms was very embarrassed and said, "In this way, we have to support the millions of US troops in the two battlefields to fight, which is a huge test for our economy." ”

This is where Indonesia's importance, CIA Director Richard? Helms does not know that the current situation of the United States can be described in a layman's language, that is, if it cannot catch up with it step by step, it will not be able to catch up step by step. From this point of view, the domino theory holds true, and once the Soviet bloc gains strength, the United States will be the first to feel the pressure. This has nothing to do with the fact that the two countries are separated by an ocean, and modern society can no longer use the geography of the Age of Discovery to set politics.

"What about Soviet military advisers stationed in Indonesia, who dare to attack our troops in Malaysia? Our troops are 80,000 men, and their so-called advisers are less than 10,000. "Secretary of Defense Robert? McNamara disagreed, his idea was very reasonable, but on the other hand, the United States did not dare to take the initiative to attack Indonesia, which had the power of the Soviet Union. The United States and the Soviet Union have been avoiding a formal conflict with each other, otherwise the Korean War would have started without waiting until today.

"If this cold confrontation is maintained, or if it is a border infiltration operation between Malaysia and Indonesia, there will be no problem. There must be no military conflict between us and the USSR. Lyndon Johnson said with some tiredness. Robert? McNamara and Richard? Helms both nodded, and they knew what that meant.

Of course, the newspapers of the free country will not let go of this opportunity, not to mention that this is an encouragement to the main combat forces, so they have a large page in detail to report the news of the Soviet military advisory group's entry into Indonesia, so as to show the correctness of the United States' entry into the Vietnam battlefield, and at the same time criticize the Soviet policy, warn the Soviet Union that sending military forces into Southeast Asia at this time will be in danger of misfire, and hope that the Soviet government and people will not misestimate the military strength of the United States.

"Oh, in the newspapers? This shows that the attitude of the United States towards the entry of our military advisory group into Indonesia is limited to lip service. In front of his subordinates, Serov spread his hands and made a helpless look and said, "The next stage is to harass Malaysia on a small scale to see if the United States increases its military strength in Malaysia, if not, we can test the bottom line of the United States." ”

This world is so realistic, the winner and the loser shut up, Serov adheres to the tradition of smiling and smiling with the wind and paralyzing against the wind, and tries his best to provoke the Americans, anyway, Indonesia is in the hands of the Soviet Union, if the Americans are not convinced, they can attack Indonesia! If 100,000 people are not enough, send 1 million, and no one will stop you. I just don't know if the international reputation and economy of the United States can withstand it......
