The world government pursued the process of global integration, and the huge plans and declarations for the common prosperity of all mankind continued to infiltrate the Soviet Union and the United States, gradually arousing the attention and yearning of the people of the United States and the Soviet Union, and exerting tremendous pressure on the governments of the United States and the Soviet Union.

Comparatively speaking, although the United States was dragged down by the powerful arms race of the Tang Empire in the process of competing for hegemony among the Tang Empire, the United States and the Soviet Union, the long-term economic downturn, and the disintegration of NATO caused the United States to lose its overseas market share, the United States has a huge domestic market and economic foundation, and it can still hold on.

However, the Soviet Union was unable to do so, because it had been subjected to a comprehensive political, economic, and military blockade by the Tang and US allies, and its economic foundation was also the weakest; in the large-scale arms race in the fields of conventional weapons and equipment, nuclear weapons, electromagnetics, computers, and space, the economy has stagnated for a long time, its resources have been consumed by huge military expenditures, the people's living standards have not been improved, and social contradictions have deepened day by day.

With the outbreak of the Hungarian Incident and the Prague Spring Incident, the Soviet camp faced serious internal divisions, and the world government dominated by the Tang Empire, the process of integration of all mankind, and the plan of common prosperity made the people of the Soviet camp yearn for and envy, and they put pressure on their respective governments, and a storm was formed that swept the Soviet camp.

Although the secret military meeting presided over by Zhang Meng had agreed in principle to launch a preemptive military strike against the United States and the Soviet Union when necessary to accomplish the great feat of global unification, in order to be foolproof, Zhang Meng finally decided to use force as a last resort, and would not consider using force unless he had no cards to play.

In order to accelerate the disintegration of the Soviet Union, the world government dominated by the Tang Empire, in addition to launching an offensive in public opinion and promising various benefits to the countries of the Soviet bloc, is also planning a new round of military operations, preparing to further weaken the military influence of the Soviet Union.

Finland is next to the Soviet Union, and has had many wars with the Soviet Union in history, in a state of hostility, with Finland joining the world government, the Tang Empire deployed more than 200,000 army, navy and air forces in Finland. The army's armored forces are mainly composed of 800 of the latest "Tiger" 2A9+ main battle tanks, which are equipped with night vision devices and infrared imaging systems for the first time, so that the Tang Army has the ability to fight at night and form an asymmetric combat capability against the enemy at night.

On the naval side, the Tang Army deployed six super battleships in Kokkat, and the 300-millimeter-diameter orbital kinetic guns could not only directly bombard St. Petersburg, 200 kilometers away, but also Moscow, 500 kilometers away. With the addition of four nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, the 4th generation Raptor fighter jet taking off from the aircraft carrier can reach the skies over Moscow in 4 minutes. In addition, 21 missile cruisers, missile destroyers, and missile frigates attached to the Baltic Fleet launched missiles in the Gulf of Finland and could also hit Moscow in half a minute. The anti-aircraft missile forces of the USSR simply did not have time to react.

On the Air Force. The Tang Army built six large air bases in Kirkat and Espoo. Capable of taking off and landing the Tang Army's most advanced stealth jet TB-69 strategic bomber, carrying 16 Trident cruise missiles, or 20 roaring thermonuclear bombs, a single TB69 stealth bomber is enough to destroy Moscow. The Don Army directly deployed 58 aircraft in Finland and could destroy the entire Eastern European region in 15 minutes.

You must know that Eastern Europe is the core of the Soviet Union, 90% of the Soviet Union's economic and industrial base is in Eastern Europe, and the defense focus of the Soviet army is also in Eastern Europe, more than 10,000 nuclear weapons are deployed there, which is a huge powder keg, once a war breaks out, it will be devastating.

The reconnaissance planes of the Don Army carried out reconnaissance flights over Eastern Europe every day, thanks to the use of stealth technology. The Soviet radar system could not search for it, so the sky over the Soviet Union was almost unguarded against the Tang army's reconnaissance planes, which was also the real reason why the Tang army was able to grasp the location of all key military targets of the Soviet army.

Of course, the Don Army also has the help of space military reconnaissance satellites, and it can be said that the ground facilities of the Soviet Army are completely under the control of the Don Army. The only thing that worried the Don army was the underground nuclear arsenal of the Soviet army.

Although the Tang army's spies were pervasive and collected a large amount of information about the Soviet army's underground nuclear arsenal, there were still some areas that were extremely secret and could not obtain information, which led to the fact that the Tang army did not dare to launch a full-scale military strike against the Soviet Union lightly, unless the Tang army fully controlled all the positions of the Soviet army's nuclear weapons.

For the Soviet Union, the Tang Empire deployed a series of advanced weapons and equipment in Finland, which posed a huge threat to the security of the Soviet Union, and the Soviet leader Khrushchev repeatedly lodged solemn protests and representations to the Tang Empire, demanding that the Tang Army withdraw its military forces in the region, but all failed, and the Tang Empire simply ignored Khrushchev.

Khrushchev did not have the courage to tear his face with the Tang Empire, and as a result, his approval rating deteriorated, and the people in Moscow were panicked every day and could not sleep at night, which eventually led to their unanimous ouster of Khrushchev and support Gorbachev to power.

As soon as Gorbachev came to power, in order to fulfill his promise to the Soviet people, he had to take a tough stance against the Tang Empire and the world government.

The Soviet Navy launched large-scale military exercises in the Baltic Sea, and although the Soviet aircraft carriers were still shortcomings, the two aircraft carriers that took off in a sliding jump still had a certain deterrent effect, because their carrier-based Su-33 fighters had certain advantages in short-range operations, and if they launched a preemptive attack, they would pose a threat to the military bases of the Tang Army on the coast of the Gulf of Finland.

However, the Tang Empire was not afraid, and the-for-tat also carried out military exercises in the Baltic Sea, and the two sides were only 200 kilometers apart, and the smell of gunpowder could be smelled, and the atmosphere was very tense.

This is reminiscent of the-for-tat military exercise between the Tang and British navies in the Atlantic Ocean a few years ago, when the Tang Army suddenly attacked and destroyed the main force of the British Royal Navy with lightning speed, which shocked the world and made the Tang Army feel its strength.

Now the people of all countries in the world are once again paying attention to it, worrying about whether the tragedy of the year will be staged again between Tang and the Soviet Union.

The Soviet Navy was very nervous and nervous, worried that the Tang Army would suddenly attack, and even some Soviet soldiers peed their pants in fright.

On the other hand, the Baltic Fleet of the Tang Army is relaxed, and they are the only ones in this world who bully people, and they are not worried at all that the Soviet Army dares to make the first move.

The confrontation-style exercise between the two sides lasted for three days, and finally the Soviet Navy could not withstand it, and the powerful mental pressure made the Soviet Navy officers and men almost collapse with fright, and they did not dare to sleep for 24 hours, and their bodies and minds were extremely tired, and many officers and men fell ill, and the Soviet Navy exercises were forced to be suspended.

The Tang army continued the exercises for four days before they ended. This round was won by the Tang Empire again, and Gorbachev was slapped in the face by the Tang Army as soon as he came to power, and he was blamed.

On the surface, the two camps of Tang and the Soviet Union are confronting, but there has not yet been a military conflict, but secretly, the battle between the Tang and Soviet armies has already begun, and it is far more fierce than before.

Originally, the nuclear submarines of Tang, the United States and the Soviet Union had been fighting in the dark, but the three sides seemed to have a tacit understanding at the place of battle, and they were all concentrated under the Arctic Ocean, where the common border of the three countries was.

However. With the improvement of the national defense system of the Tang Empire. A powerful electromagnetic cannon defense system and a missile defense system are combined. It is almost impossible for the long-range ballistic missiles launched by the nuclear submarines of the United States and the Soviet Union to break through the defense network, so the nuclear submarines of the United States and the Soviet Union need to further approach the coastal waters of the Tang Empire in order to launch nuclear missiles with a success rate and deterrence.

Thereupon. The nuclear submarines of the United States and the Soviet Union gradually transferred the battlefield from the Arctic Ocean to the Pacific Ocean, and the Soviet Union did not have a naval base on the Pacific coast, so the Soviet Navy developed the 955-class nuclear submarine.

This is the Soviet Navy's dream and expectation of the first class of strategic nuclear submarines, a breakthrough in noise reduction technology, costing 2 billion Tang Yuan, for the Soviet Union, this expenditure is no longer a problem that can be solved by tightening the belt, but to the point where it can only be raised by selling body parts.

However, the 955-class nuclear submarine did bring a qualitative breakthrough to the Soviet Navy. With a displacement of up to 20,000 tons, it is known as an underwater cruiser, and its noise technology has reached the level of the Tang Army's Carp-class conventional submarines, which are difficult to detect underwater. It is equipped with 12 Hammer ICBMs with a range of 11,000 kilometers. The error was narrowed to 500 meters, posing a serious military threat to the Tang Empire.

This is also one of the real reasons why the Tang Empire treated the Soviet Union cautiously, and only by destroying the only three 955-class strategic nuclear submarines that the Soviet Navy had successfully built and put into service, would the Tang Empire feel safe.

The Soviet Navy regarded the three 955-class strategic nuclear submarines as the final killer and never dared to show them easily, but Gorbachev was slapped in the face, and the Soviet Navy had to send a 955-class strategic nuclear submarine Yuri to conduct combat readiness patrols to deter the Tang Empire.

On February 4, 1979, during the traditional Spring Festival of the Tang Empire, the Yuri strategic nuclear submarine suddenly appeared in the Pacific Ocean east of Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Empire, and deliberately raised the Soviet flag to indicate to the Tang Empire that the Soviet nuclear submarine was coming.

This is a naked threat, which shocked the Tang Empire, and Zhang Meng immediately called Admiral Lin Changsheng, the commander of the navy, over and scolded him.

After Lin Changsheng returned, he immediately ordered the navy to start a hunting plan, to leave the Yuri in the Pacific Ocean and prevent it from returning home safely.

For this reason, the main force of the Pacific Fleet of the Tang Army set up exercise areas throughout the Pacific region under the pretext of military exercises, with the aim of cutting off the Yuri's passage out of the Pacific Ocean. According to international rules, once the exercise area is divided, the exercise countries have the right to sink the aircraft and ships of other countries that rashly enter the exercise area.

The Pacific Fleet of the Don Army was this idea, legally and reasonably sinking the Yuri.

The Soviet Navy panicked, and immediately guessed the thoughts of the Don Army, and immediately instructed the Yuri to immediately evacuate the Pacific Ocean and return home.

However, the commander of the Yuri, Major General Aloyev, was very arrogant, he believed that the Yuri had dived to the depths of the Pacific Ocean, less than 800 kilometers east of Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Empire, and had not been discovered by the Tang Army.

But what he never expected was that the Datang Empire Navy was building an underwater large-scale sonar array system, and the old and new systems were being replaced and tested, so there were loopholes that allowed the Yuri to get close to the mainland of the Datang Empire without being discovered.

With the full mobilization of the navy and air force of the Tang Empire, the underwater sonar array was put into comprehensive reconnaissance, the Tang army controlled the global sea arteries, and the surrounding area was full of Datang's military bases, underwater sonar array monitoring, air early warning anti-submarine aircraft hovering, space military reconnaissance satellite monitoring, and hundreds of nuclear submarines and conventional submarines were inspected in each sea area, so that the Soviet Yuri nuclear submarine had nowhere to hide, and was soon discovered by the Tang army.
