Chapter 367: Airborne New Delhi
At the White House, the Soviet ambassador to the United States, Dobrynin, was a guest in Kennedy's office, and since the Cuban Missile Crisis, Dobrynin has been a regular visitor to the White House, but this time it is a different issue, the war on the roof of the world.
"President Kennedy, I repeat the position of the USSR in this war, we did not support China in starting this war, you overestimated the influence of the USSR on China!" Dobrynin said righteously, "This war has nothing to do with the Soviet Union, it is entirely China's own considerations, and the speculation of some American media is more irresponsible. How stupid it is to think about it in a different way! ”
Kennedy didn't speak, the American media is really stupid on this issue, if the Soviet Union launched the Cuban Missile Crisis to cover for China's war, what kind of imbecile would it have to be to make such a decision? However, the American media has always been this virtue in this kind of chasing after the wind, and Kennedy has no choice.
"Mr. Dobrynin, as the leading country of socialism, can't you, the Soviet Union, use some influence to make China stop?" Attorney General Robert Kennedy asked a little aggressively, in his opinion, the Soviet Union was the leading country of the entire socialist camp, and other countries were satellites of the Soviet Union, and the Soviet Union definitely had a way to make China stop moving.
"Mr. Robert Kennedy, Yugoslavia is also a socialist country, Albania is also a socialist country, do you really think that a socialist country is part of the Soviet Union?" Dobrynin spread his hands and said helplessly, "The Chinese comrades say every day that our Soviet Union is too conservative and shout about the world revolution, what can we do?" ”
If there is anything that Dobrynin and Serov learned during the Cuban Missile Crisis, then self-respect is definitely one of them. Dobrynin, who was ostensibly selfless, saw that the United States was rushing to communicate with him. I feel like I've never been so proactive.
This is the case, in this era, it is not the Soviet Union that shouts about liberating the world, but China, and Dobrynin now thinks that it is good to have such a country to attract the firepower of the Americans, and of course he also knows the danger of this. This is also normal, and now no matter which country looks at China, it feels that this country is a little abnormal. Of course, Dobrynin did not have this view, he believed that the idea of China now is the idea of the Soviet Union before the thirties, to liberate the world......
"It can't go on like this, China's move is a serious threat to world peace, and if the Soviet Union can't stop it, the United States must take its own action!" Kennedy looked at Dobrynin and said very seriously.
Dobrynin just looked at Kennedy quietly, not frightened by the American president, and the thoughts in his heart were clearly written on his expression, which means that you say I can't, you can do it......
If the United States is really ready to send military forces to intervene, the reaction of the Soviet Union can only be guessed by the brain, and the meeting of the Presidium of the Central Committee can be passed in a second, and there is no need to discuss it, that is, to resist US aggression and aid China, sell kidneys to aid China......
Kennedy will not be fooled by this, if he really makes the decision to go his own way, the Soviet Union will really sell his kidney to aid China, this is not to be thought of, this is something that the Soviets understand, and he understands it very well. Therefore, Kennedy can only let me not go, I will ****, at most, I will manipulate the international public opinion to scold China for its strong expansionism.
But the problem has to be solved, especially since India's counteroffensive fails, and if it continues to fight, the country will be destroyed. This is not in the interests of the United States, from the Soviet Union's neutrality statement, Kennedy also knew the attitude of the Soviet Union, not to say what he secretly thinks, on the surface he will definitely not dare to oppose the whole world, if the Soviet Union wants to support China, the Cold War can be said to be over from now on, because this is something that the whole world opposes.
"Then let's convene the United Nations General Assembly to discuss this matter!" Kennedy suddenly suggested with a soothing face. As long as the UN General Assembly is convened, under the eyes of the whole world, the USSR will definitely not dare to oppose the United States in this matter, because all countries are watching the performance of the USSR, and if the USSR supports China, then the reputation of the USSR will stink. What helped Cuba to abolish the unequal treaties, no one will believe this kind of nonsense.
Kennedy's calculations were carefully considered, and it depends on whether the Soviet Union is prepared to take a corner of the country or to compete with the United States in the world, and if it is to protect the interests of its own camp, then it is very normal to support China. However, it will take several years to regain the support of public opinion, and if it does not oppose the US proposal, it proves that the Soviet Union is still ready to compete with the United States for the whole world, and has chosen to adopt a tolerant attitude on this issue for the time being.
Kennedy hoped that the Soviet Union would support China, so that the United States could regain its public opinion disadvantage on the Guantanamo issue, and that the Soviet Union's support for China would be equivalent to being on the opposite side of all countries that supported India, so that the pressure on the United States would be much reduced.
At the United Nations General Assembly on November 20, at the suggestion of the United States Ambassador to the United Nations Stevenson, the issue of the war was discussed, and the Soviet representatives did not oppose the resolution, and the United States and the Soviet Union expressed their willingness to stop this senseless war.
However, as for the nature of the war, the United States used the term China's invasion of India, while the Soviet Union used the term conflict over disputed territory, in other words, the Soviet Union did not know who the land belonged to, so it came to a fifty-fifty board each.
Nehru was a little skewful about the Soviet Union, but he still welcomed the United States and the Soviet Union to stop the current battlefield, because in the counteroffensive that had just been carried out, the Indian army had once again embarrassed the great powers, and the failure of this counteroffensive also showed that India no longer had the capital to continue fighting.
On the morning of November 21, Serov, dressed in full clothes, rushed to the headquarters of the KGB in Kazakhstan, and he already knew the decision of the UN General Assembly, and now it was time to go down the mountain to pick peaches, and he had to enter India before the Americans.
"We must get ahead of the Americans!" Serov said solemnly to the commanders of the 105th Guards Airborne Division, "This intervention must show the power of the Soviets, this is Eurasia, not Cuba, which is surrounded by the sea, and the military power of the Soviets will not be cut off by the sea this time, do you know what to do?" ”
"The purpose of the operation is to give desperate Indians a belief in survival, please remember that this operation is allowed within the framework of the United Nations, and the US troops in Asia will soon come and land in India, this is a unique competition between the armies of our two countries, do not discredit the face of the motherland!" Serov ordered solemnly.
"Understood!" Serov responded with a neat military salute, and the commanders began to leave the place to prepare.
Half an hour later, one Soviet transport plane after another took off from the airport in Almaty and rushed into the blue sky. With more than two hundred sorties in one morning, these transport planes took to the skies with the most powerful airborne troops on the planet.
"The 105th Guards Airborne Division has taken off and is on its way to New Delhi, India!" Serov, holding the phone, reported to the Presidium of the Central Committee in Moscow, "We will carry out a successful airborne landing!" ”
"Be sure to get ahead of the Americans, don't worry about the Chinese side, Comrade Andropov is in charge over there! It seems that they don't have enough ammunition to start a campaign, so let it go! Sherepin, who answered the phone, commanded.
"Got it!" Serov, who hung up the phone, waved his hand and nearly 300 anti-anti-workers began to board the plane, including himself, Serov, the first deputy chairman of the KGB of the Soviet Union.
China has also fought enough, not so much as a question of the will to fight, but of supply lines. So far, China's supply lines are very fragile, and of course there is no problem if you want to defend, but if you want to take the initiative to attack again. Then those Chinese soldiers could only take the old Li that was older than Serov's father captured from the Indians.
The automatic rifle must consume more bullets than Lao Li, and with the supply line that China wants to cross the roof of the world, it is already very economical to fight a war now. Serov, who was sitting on the passenger plane, had already caught up with the Soviet transport plane formation in the skies over Afghanistan, and he only set off more than ten minutes later than these airborne troops.
The Soviet airborne troops in this era are far less perverted than they were after the 70s, because at present the Soviet airborne troops have not yet overcome the problem of airborne landing with men and vehicles, and they cannot immediately fight the enemy's heavy troops after being airborne. But for a country like India, the Soviet Airborne Forces are still aliens.
"Immediately telegraph to New Delhi that the Soviet Airborne Forces will be airborne over New Delhi in half an hour, and that the Indian air defense forces should not open fire, so as not to cause unnecessary clashes, and this is for their good!" Serov ordered as soon as he got off the plane.
Not long after, a group of transport planes carrying the Soviet logo arrived over New Delhi, and with the arrival of these transport planes, umbrella flowers bloomed in the sky one after another, at which time New Delhi sounded a radio to inform the Indian public that it was the Soviet Airborne Forces that had come to carry out the United Nations peacekeeping force to suspend the war at the invitation of India.
Thousands of umbrella flowers slowly fell, marking the entry of the Soviet armed forces into India with the permission of the United Nations to maintain order, and the next day the United States Marines landed in Bombay, and the United States and the Soviet Union divided their military forces into India within two days, one in New Delhi and one in Mumbai, and two different armies echoed each other in two large cities in India.
