Almost every Soviet man who disembarked was embraced by the Cuban people. The Bucharest was welcomed by tens of thousands of Cubans waiting in the harbor, and it is not an exaggeration to describe the sight as crowded. It can only be seen at the annual May Day parade.

At night, the shadows grew larger and larger on the calm waters, until suddenly ripples appeared in the calm sea, an underwater submarine formation, and these fighters of the Soviet Red Navy spent two days breaking through the most dangerous diving area in Europe, the area that included the Baltic and North Seas, and which had historically trapped the second largest German ocean fleet in the world. The oceanic fleet, which forced the Second Reich, became an existential fleet, and the Germans, who were blockaded in ports, could only rely on submarines to fight in the two world wars.

Advances in technology have made today's submarines bigger and bigger, but it's still unwise to fight head-to-head with surface forces. Especially now that the nuclear submarine is just starting, concealment is the biggest advantage of the submarine, and it is not obliged to complete the work of the surface fleet.

This conventional submarine formation, which is charging on the surface, is using its precious time to run its own power, and the task of this formation is not to break through the blockade line of the US Navy, but the formation of N-class nuclear submarines that set off earlier than them is the formation that breaks through the blockade line. Nuclear submarines have power and the enemy to play hide and seek, but conventional submarines cannot.

In the Cuban Missile Crisis in history, conventional submarines were the main force of the Soviet Union to break through the blockade zone, but the characteristics of conventional submarines that had to float and recharge made the Soviet Union fall into passivity. Soviet submarines could get rid of the fleet of the US Navy, but they were often quickly discovered when they were recharged, and eventually became less and less powerful and got stuck under the Caribbean Sea.

With the available forces, Serov could only fine-tune and avoid the mistakes that should have occurred in order to strive for less passive consequences. He could not let the Soviet soldiers hold out in the heat of fifty or sixty degrees in the submarine. For the willpower of Soviet soldiers. Serov has no doubts, but it is better not to do so without willpower against nature.

"The Bucharest broke through the blockade of the US Navy and has reached the port of Cuba, and we want to learn from the comrades on the Bucharest, they are our example!"

"The information of the National Security Committee for the Internal Security indicates. The US Navy's blockade zone is five hundred nautical miles from the sea around Cuba, it doesn't matter, our mission is to reach the launch site and not break through the blockade line, our SSN4 missiles, which can be launched from a thousand nautical miles away, this problem is not difficult for us......"

"Most of the naval forces of the continental United States are around the Caribbean Sea, and this is our chance, comrades!"

After charging, the formation of Soviet conventional submarines entering the Atlantic Ocean dived. The sea is calm again.

At the same time, Serov, who had already arrived in Tashkent, convened a KGB meeting at the headquarters of the KGB in Uzbekistan, which was attended by two commanders of border guards and the chairmen of the KGB of the five union republics. Serov, dressed in a military uniform and with a large-brimmed hat, had a weathered face, and he had just arrived from Moscow and had not yet rested. After all, all departments in Moscow are plotting around the Cuban Missile Crisis.

Before getting on the plane, Serov also attended a meeting of the Ministry of Defense, where he attended a military meeting of the Soviet Armed Forces as commander of the Internal Guard. With the exception of the Internal Guard of the State Security Council and the Border Guards of the State Security Council, the Ministry of Defense commanded the Soviet Red Army in the narrow sense. Including the Soviet Navy, Land, Air and Territorial Air Forces, the Strategic Rocket Forces and Airborne Forces, the Engineering Corps, and so on. Both the Ministry of Defense and the KGB were part of the Soviet Armed Forces.

Commander of the Internal Guards Serov and Commander of the Border Guards, Colonel-General Zeyanov. As the commanders of the two units under the KGB, he attended the military meeting of the Ministry of Defense as observers, but the two of them only went to observe, and the Ministry of Defense had no authority to command the two KGB units, and their command was in the hands of the KGB. Participation in the meeting only showed that both forces were also part of the Armed Forces of the USSR. Cooperate with the actions of the Ministry of Defense in the general direction.

If the situation deteriorated, the entire Soviet Armed Forces would increase their level of combat readiness. Just before he left Moscow, all the first deputy ministers of defense, including the Soviet Defense Minister Marshal Malinovsky, the commander-in-chief of the Warsaw Pact, Marshal Gretzko, unanimously agreed that if the United States raised the level of combat readiness, the Soviet Union would have to respond directly to the first level of combat readiness.

The Ministry of Defense has already drafted an order for combat readiness at the first level, "Enter the mobilization of combat readiness; Combat-ready duty officers are on duty day and night; The radio command network listens at all times. guarantee uninterrupted command; the use of various reconnaissance means to closely monitor the enemy's movements; Carry out emergency expansion, combat readiness reserves and combat readiness duty units of military regions will be fully staffed according to wartime, and the required equipment will be given priority according to supplementary capabilities; Complete the position matching; implementation of safeguards; Troop personnel, weapons, and equipment are evacuated and concealed and camouflaged; Left-behind institutions organize personnel to evacuate to predetermined areas; Improve the action plan, complete all preparations for battle, and the troops are on standby; Stop all vacations, stop all transfers, and all veterans. "The telegram was drafted and remained in the Ministry of Defense, ready to be delivered to the Presidium of the Central Committee for approval by First Secretary Khrushchev in the event of an aggravation of the situation.

Long before the meeting, the commander-in-chief of the Warsaw Pact, Field Marshal Grechko, had already telegraphed the four major clusters in Eastern Europe to prepare for battle. Lieutenant General Sakhatowsky, head of the 1st General Directorate of the KGB, asked the Advisory Department of the 11th Directorate of the 11th Directorate of the KGB to inform the other Warsaw Pact member states of the position of the USSR. Commander of the Territorial Defense Forces of the USSR, Field Marshal of the Air Force Vladimir? Aleksandrovich? Sudetz ordered that the Territorial Defense Force must keep all its subordinate forces in a state of constant fighter planes in the air, so as to prevent the possibility of US strategic bombers breaking through the airspace of the Soviet Union.

Following the order of Marshal Sudets, the 34 air defense corps, divisions, and ground-to-air missile units under the nine major airstrips of the Soviet Union were in a state of combat readiness and were in a state of being ready to attack at any time, and they were nervously paying attention to the huge airspace of the Soviet Union.

Serov only knew the course of the Cuban Missile Crisis literally, and he had never experienced such a battle, and when he saw the generals of the Ministry of Defense who had gone through the Great Patriotic War, he seriously discussed the all-out war, and felt that it was not a mistake for him to get involved. With his advance preparations, he had convinced the Soviet Union that the United States would negotiate in the face of forces that could destroy it. Therefore, driven by this mentality, the Soviet Ministry of Defense confidently and boldly let the Soviet armed forces prepare and put pressure on the Americans to succumb.

The question is what to do if there is a real fight, and it is not what he wants to die together, waiting for the remnants of the Soviet Union to play a game of radiation in this world while hiding under the Moscow subway? Even if Serov was open-minded, he didn't want his women and children to face such a world.

"Why don't you join in and let the Soviet Union admit it?" Serov drooped his eyelids, he hadn't slept for more than 30 hours, even ordinary people knew that the Soviet Union and the United States had fallen into a full-scale confrontation, and the entire Soviet Union was in a depressing atmosphere, not to mention him, an insider.

In a short time, the chairmen of the KGB and the two commanders of the border guards of the five Central Asian republics arrived, Kamiyakin, chairman of the KGB of Kazakhstan, and General Kudryash, commander of the Central Asian border guards. But times have changed, some things will not change, and after the re-merger of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, in terms of power, they, the security cadres, have survived the embarrassing situation of being a man with their tails between their legs during the period when Beria just died.

After the corn campaign, the Lubyanka began to take back the power to delegate to the republics and local governments, and it can be said that the KGB has returned to the vertical system of the Stalin era in terms of executive power, which is also an advantage compared with other departments.

"The first secretary sent me here mainly to inquire about the Sino-Indian border war, and the war between China and India is also a major matter in addition to this confrontation with the United States. Serov rubbed his eyes as he spoke, hoping to regain his energy soon.

"According to the report of the reconnaissance aircraft, the Indian army has been hit and is retreating, but the war is still in the stable stage!" Compared to the others, Kudryash had been following up on the matter for a long time, and obviously knew the situation over there better, and reported the results of the Soviet Air Force's reconnaissance.

"According to the New Delhi report, the whole of New Delhi is still in a state of calm." Kamiya fiddled with the pen and said, "This golden statue doesn't look like it's fake, it seems that the Indian Army can still control the situation!" ”

Isn't this particularly scientific, it doesn't fit Serov's original investigation at all, etc.? Backed up? Athletic warfare? The Chinese soldiers are best at sports warfare, once the Indian army retreats, it is easy to be defeated by the Chinese soldiers who are good at sports warfare, no wonder later generations always think that the Indian soldiers are inexplicably defeated, and the peanuts who defend democracy on the treasure island can testify to what a terrible thing it is to be pursued in front of the communist soldiers.

"It looks like the Indians are dead!" Serov lazily uttered this inexplicable word, and instead ordered, "Make relevant preparations immediately, and when the Indians can no longer support the plea for help, we can enter openly, and we must let the powerful countries take the initiative to ask us, so that we can enter in the name of the savior!" Our first step is to airdrop a supply ...... on humanitarian ground after the Indian army retreats" (To be continued. )
