Chapter 700: Fast in and fast out
The economies of North Vietnam and South Vietnam are completely different, the North has been bombed by the US Air Force for many years, and has been taking the initiative to attack South Vietnam, in fact, the losses suffered a little more than South Vietnam, the economies of the two are actually separated, and now that North Vietnam has won, it must be the Soviet system that dominates Vietnam, and it is necessary to transform the South Vietnamese part.

After the reunification of Vietnam, in fact, many socialist countries, including the Soviet Union, encountered a problem, that is, it was extremely short of time, and it was necessary to complete the five-year plan to eliminate illiteracy, set up factories, and design the economic system within a few years, and at the same time to prevent foreign interference, and the Soviet Union was the first country to encounter such difficulties. At that time, the Soviet Union could only rely on itself, and after the establishment of the Soviet Union, whether other countries recognized it or not, the price they paid was actually smaller than that of the Soviet Union. The existence of the USSR was a natural protection for them, which could save a lot of money.
Vietnam also encountered the same situation at this time, on the one hand, they had to bridge the knot between the South and the North, first of all, they had to unify the economy, and on the other hand, the Soviet Union demanded more than history, let Vietnam play an international role, and first put Thailand in order for the Soviet Union.
Serov didn't want to see the big step and the-butt thing happen again in Vietnam, which would delay his plan, so he called the scholars of the Planning Committee to Hanoi, and the Vietnamese transformation plan must be cautious, otherwise it may fail as it did in history.
"Now half of Southeast Asia is in our hands, only Malaysia, where the British and American garrisons have not yet withdrawn, is considered stable, and it is leveling the Indochina Peninsula, so that Indonesia can also be contained, and it is always not good for one to be dominant." Serov was wearing a Southeast Asian sweatshirt, and if he returned to the army in a coat and black leather boots this month, he would be killed.
The members of the Planning and Economic Committee tended to settle the South Vietnamese transformation plan slowly, and earlier the Vietnamese's own plan was likely to get out of control, and the Soviet expert said of Hanoi's objections, "We have sufficient experience in this area, and we must know that China's First Five-Year Plan was also formulated by us, and the results are very good." Are you also worried that we will annex you across China? ”
"I understand the anxiety of the Vietnamese central government, but you are dealing with half of the country, and if it gets out of control, it will be troublesome, and this is not only an economic problem, but also a political problem. Or an international issue. You have failed, there is a problem, where do we put the face of the USSR? There is also the problem that Chinese are troublesome, so be careful. The USSR is engaged in an offensive strategy in other directions, if your relations with China are not handled well. We don't have time to help you. In the spirit of honesty and honesty in the face of ugly words, Serov made it clear.
I believe that the Viet Cong will not think that the Soviet Union will turn its face because of Vietnam and China, and Serov is still ready to put his precious military strength in Turkey, but he would rather attack Afghanistan and act like Lao Tzu is very busy, and push out the commitment to Vietnam.
"It's better to be direct, I haven't said anything yet, the Vietnamese moved themselves first, thinking that we would support them." Serov understands the future bomb problem, such as the South China Sea, and can even put himself in Vietnam's shoes to think about this problem, but it is useless, it is not worth the Soviet Union to come in and take the risk, with this effort the Soviet Union is fully capable of drawing a territory in the oceans of the whole world.
While he was not doing his job in Vietnam, the Sudan People's Army (SPA) offensive was also in the second phase, and the Lumumba supporters in the DRC announced that they would no longer follow the orders of the puppet government government in Kinshasa, and that they were not on the fence about the fighting between the DRC government army and the Sudan People's Army, and in fact began to engage with the Sudan People's Army (SPA), which was on long drive.
The Lumumba faction has a reason to do so, since the Union of Socialism of Sudan is a student who claims to be Lumumba. Although the Lumumba faction does not believe in the Sultan's self-proclaimed claims, contact is also necessary, and judging from the current progress of the war, it is not too much to describe the Sudanese People's Army as overwhelming, and the Arabs of Sudan are just fish belly in front of the Israelis, and they are incarnated as tigers in front of the blacks.
After the Sudan People's Army entered the Democratic Republic of the Congo, it fought four times with the Congolese government army, each time beating the other party off their armor, and the Sudan People's Army has lost less than 1,000 casualties at present. First of all, discipline is a big problem, modern warfare is not alone, and the most superior physical fitness of blacks cannot block bullets.
After four major wars, the ensuing fighting was like an unstoppable avalanche, and the Congolese government forces were completely defeated. The Congolese soldiers threw away all their heavy artillery, machine guns and other support weapons, climbed into trucks and sped south, crowded with so many people that even small children could not squeeze in, not even rifles. They had only one thought: to throw that terrible enemy off for miles.
"Blinding the air aid of the Americans is like feeding a dog." Lieutenant General Igor, who took the place of Zinev in charge of African affairs, shook his head slightly, in fact, since the day before yesterday, the support of the US Air Force has stopped. It is not known whether it was a temporary interruption or something else, but not a single transport plane flew to Kinshasa.
Perhaps it was desperation of the black army on the frontal battlefield, perhaps it was preparing to prop up other rulers, or it was preparing to use guerrilla warfare to prevent the Soviets from occupying the DRC, in short, military support for the American homeland was cut off. Lieutenant General Igor also did not know what the reason, he had just received news from home that the Soviet Air Force was also preparing to stop air transport in response. He did not know if there was an exchange of interests, but there was only one target in front of him, Kinshasa, the capital of the Congo.
The Soviet military advisory group in the Sudan People's Army has all been withdrawn, and in the last battle, Igor chose to withdraw, which of course has a certain risk, but in such an important battle, from the perspective of international public opinion, the Soviet Union should not interfere, and at the same time, the earlier war also gave him a certain confidence.
Victory in the last battle will smash the political structure of the Democratic Republic of the Congo for more than a decade, which is pro-American, and if it is smashed, it will not be bad for the Soviet Union, and it will not be as bad as before. Prior to this, the Democratic Republic of the Congo also put on a posture of fighting to the death.
Hundreds of thousands of refugees rushed to the Congo River, carrying their burdens and supporting the old and the young. The narrow pontoon bridge is wobbly due to the crowding of vehicles and people, and its passage is extremely slow. People were constantly being squeezed off the pontoon bridge and falling into the river, and the desolate cries looked creepy in the dark night.
At the same time that this report was published in the United States, Mobutu gathered 70,000 government troops to wait in the capital Kinshasa, saying that he wanted to live and die with the invaders, which Lieutenant General Igor absolutely did not believe, and with his knowledge of Africa for several months, this country that could live and die with the capital had not yet appeared. He concluded that Mobutu would run away.
The whole of Kinshasa is empty, and normal people do not stay in a city that will fall at any time. The Sudanese Military Council gave the order to attack, and in an instant 400 artillery pieces roared, the Soviet model of the army attached great importance to artillery, and the Sudan People's Army also inherited the artillery doctrine of the Soviet Red Army, and in this part of Africa, this kind of artillery bombardment has been regarded as the most intense war.
Shells exploded in Kinshasa, the capital of the Congo, with the flames of the Sudan People's Army, and at the time of the last round of shelling, the tracks of the T54 tanks had slowly started and rushed into the city of Kinshasa. The Sudan People's Army (SPA) met with fierce resistance, but immediately they felt that it was strange.
It was soon reported to Khartoum and to the Sudanese Military Council. White faces appear in Kinshasa. Lieutenant General Igor was surprised, he did not know whether it was mercenaries or reinforcements from certain countries. In the case of reinforcements, the country most likely to be suspected is white South Africa.
"No, it's too late to intervene, we've already got the upper hand. Moreover, the fact that the white regime in South Africa helped the DRC is actually more indicative of our propaganda that the DRC is a puppet regime, and since we did not find out earlier, it means that there are certainly not many whites entering Kinshasa, and there will be no problem in continuing the offensive, and the small scale of white soldiers will not change Mobutu's fate. "Lieutenant General Igor expressed his support for the continuation of the offensive.
Seram and other Sudanese rulers nodded, they had already entered the war, and the withdrawal before the last fortress was conquered was an incomplete victory, and for them it was so, and soon the Sudan People's Army on the front line received orders to continue the attack, and the fighting in Kinshasa continued.
At the end of July, the Sudan People's Army entered and completely occupied Kinshasa, and as Lieutenant General Igor had estimated, Mobutu did not live with Kinshasa, but fled shortly after the fighting began, fleeing to France with his wealth. The war between Sudan and the Democratic Republic of the Congo lasted for two months, and the number of Sudanese killed was 2,300, which made Lieutenant General Igor, who had experienced the Great Patriotic War, very conflicted, and the intensity of the war in Africa was too low.
Less than a week after the end of the fighting, the Sudan immediately handed over Kinshasa to the Lumumba faction and at the same time handed over the captured weapons to the faction, and the Sudan People's Army retreated without stopping. Because in just a few days, there are already signs of anarchy in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and if Sudan has to occupy the Congo, it will definitely fall into guerrilla warfare.
For the Soviet Union, the regular war between the two countries is over, and Moscow will have to change its support for the rest of the time, and the civil war in the Democratic Republic of the Congo may last for a long time.
"I have to return home, and this action will determine our fate." Serov, who was getting on the train at the Hanoi railway station, asked Yegrove to preside over the work here, the Soviet Union had persuaded Vietnam to agree to the Soviet Union's transformation plan, and the People's Liberation Army of Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos was also being formed, and he was going back to his own business.
