Chapter 170: The Battle Can't Be Fought

Tomorrow is 515, the anniversary of the starting point, and the day with the most benefits. www.biquge.info In addition to the gift bag and schoolbag, this time the 515 red envelope must be turned over, how can the red envelope not rob the reason, set the alarm clock ang~

The United States mainly has the air force and navy in the island country, and after the first day of fighting, the navy and air force lost a lot, and the superiority of the United States in equipment was not reflected, and the exchange ratio between the two sides was about the same.

Now, if the army is mobilized again, the conflict in Hokkaido will be even more serious, and maybe this is a trick of the Soviets, who are vainly trying to start a new world war!

At that time, the European battlefield will also be a mess, and the European army at this time will be able to stop the torrent of Soviet armor?

Can't scale up!

The American army has just been freed from the quagmire of Vietnam and cannot afford to fall into a new quagmire! The United States is simply not ready for a new world war!

Now is not the afterlife, the collapse of the Soviet Union, the unipolar hegemony of the United States in the world, if nothing happens, repair the disobedient minions, the global village must come according to the will of the United States. At this time, it was a time when the United States was weak and the USSR was strong! Although it was only a few years before the decline of the Soviet Union, these few years were the most difficult time for the United States, but unfortunately, Carter caught up.

At this time, Carter was extremely depressed, and originally thought that with the help of this opportunity, the 311 civil airliner turmoil would pass, and now, the situation is as he hoped, and the public's eyes really left the 311 air crash, but a bigger problem has been placed in front of Carter, whether it is to fight or not, it is not good for the United States!

At this time, his think tanks were clearly divided into two factions. Hard-line people want to solve the problem militarily, but there are also concerns that more people do not want to continue to expand the scale of the war.

"Now is the time to test us, our army is not raised by taxpayers for white rice!" Harold said, "We will not be afraid of war!" ”

"But we can't afford a new world war now! The Soviets have recovered from WWII! Moreover, we all have huge nuclear weapons, in the event of a real war. Even a nuclear war, for us, is a devastating blow! In World War II, our country was never used as a battlefield, but now? Brzezinski said.

The United States was the only beneficiary of World War II, the war did not break out on American soil, and the world's wealth went to the United States.

However, if there is a conflict with the Soviet Union now, the war may spread to the United States itself.

The scale of the war cannot be further expanded!

"I think so, too. We cannot expand the scale of the war any longer, otherwise, there will also be danger on the part of Europe. CIA Director Admiral Fittner said.

"It is precisely because the Soviets have seized on this weakness of ours that they will have nothing to fear! I don't believe it, the Soviets really dared to start a world war! Our inaction now will only lead to the Soviets eating all of Hokkaido! General Harold raised his voice.

"Report, the latest battle report, an armored corps of the Soviets. Attacked Otaru, now. The port of Otaru had already been occupied by the Soviets. "While the two sides were chattering and arguing, a piece of news made everyone shut their mouths.

Damn it! Are all island people ****? How can you not stop the Soviets? The Soviet Union was the first to land, and just a few people actually let them drive straight into the entire island country of Hokkaido?

And, now. The Soviets actually occupied the port of Otaru!

Otaru, a port town located on the west side of Hokkaido, became an Otaru coal export port after the discovery of coal in Sapporo in 1873. Since then, it has become a thriving commercial city. In addition to being a commercial port for the outside world, Otaru is also Hokkaido's main fish distribution center, an industrial city, and the main processing industry is glass.

Due to its geographical location, trade with Russia was once relatively prosperous.

Now, the occupation of Otaru Port by the Soviets immediately made the situation completely worse, because the Soviets no longer need to go around the circle of Kunashir Island, and the Soviets have been able to transport a large number of people and equipment directly from the opposite Primorsky Territory! At this time, the Seventh Fleet of the US Army in Japan was still in the Pacific Ocean, and it was impossible to go around the Sea of Japan to stop the Soviet fleet, and the Soviet fleet must have already set off at this time!

This battle can't be fought! Unless the United States mobilizes a group army from within the country to fight with the Soviets in the Hokkaido region of the island country, it will not be enough for the Soviets to rely on the self-defense forces of the island country!

Damn it! The Soviets are going to occupy the rhythm of all of Hokkaido! Occupy Hokkaido, get ice-free ports, and be able to go out of the Pacific Ocean at any time, threatening the hegemony of the United States in the Pacific!

"Mr. President, now it is no longer a military aspect to solve our problems, we need to urgently meet with the Soviet ambassador and try to solve the problem by diplomatic means." Vice President Walter said.

Diplomacy! If you can beat it, you can fight, and if you can't beat it, you can reason, this is a universal truth! Now that the United States is beyond its reach, it lacks adequate means to deal with the deterioration of the situation in Hokkaido, and now it can only hope for diplomacy. It's really painful, at this time, the United States really didn't have enough courage to start a full-scale war with the Soviet Union, and moreover, it was the island country that was lost, not the United States, not a NATO ally, just a servant country.

"Okay, give me an appointment with the Soviet ambassador at once." President Carter said.

During the Cold War, both sides had nuclear weapons, and if there was any misunderstanding, it might lead to the outbreak of a world war, so the top leaders of the United States and the Soviet Union had a direct communication channel, that is, a hotline.

It was a two-way telegraph circuit that ran through Washington, London, Copenhagen, Stockholm, Helsinki and Moscow, with the Washington-London section being connected by the world's first transatlantic telephone cable. In order to be safe, the United States and the Soviet Union also opened a backup radio communication line from Washington to Tangier (Morocco) to Moscow.

Although it is only a telegram, it cannot be directly voice communication, after all, this is a direct communication channel to prevent misunderstanding between the two sides and trigger a war, but the call at that time was too unpleasant, not like a dialogue at all, just like reading a speech, until 71 years, with the progress of technology, the United States and the Soviet Union agreed to upgrade the military hotline system to a more advanced satellite transmission mode, by two American international communications satellites and two Soviet "Lightning-2" communication satellites as the information relay task, In this way, the leaders of the United States and the Soviet Union achieved a real voice call.

Now, depending on the severity of the situation, the hotline has been used, but President Carter still wants to talk to the Soviet ambassador before deciding how to deal with the Soviet general secretary next.
