Chapter 765: The Strait of Gibraltar (Gal. 1)

"Mr. Muhammad, I'm very sorry that our President does not agree with the joint development of oil fields. www.biquge.infoReturning to his office, Aranya said to the couch beside him, an arms dealer who was already an acquaintance.

"It doesn't matter, I think, in the future, General Galtieri will be interested, after all, Argentina only has experience in extracting oil on land, how to explore and extract from the sea, Argentina does not have any technology, we will definitely cooperate happily." Mhammad said that although he did not have a beard, his face was a typical Middle Easterner, and his high, curved nose was the best physical feature.

"Then when will the weapons we need, Exocet missiles, etc., arrive?" "We have to plan in secret, after all, the Western world, led by the United States, has imposed joint sanctions on us, and if we know that we have obtained it from a third country, we will definitely intercept it on the way," Aranya said. ”

"Please rest assured, as long as you pay the money, the Exocet missiles can be transported to your arsenal within one day, and the others may be slower, but within two days, they can still be delivered." "The Americans, even with joint sanctions, would never dare to intercept Soviet-flagged transport planes," Mhammad said. ”

In fact, the Exocet missiles have been shipped over a long time ago, and they have been stored in a small warehouse on the coast of Argentina, so to speak, the year before, after Mhammad came to Argentina as a Middle Eastern businessman, all this began to be laid out, and he used various connections to constantly bribe Argentine officials, and finally made friends with Aranya. Although he has one of the most common names in the Middle East, Mhammad's real identity is that of a KGB agent.

Now, Mhammad has great admiration for Moscow's top leadership, the direct person in charge of the South American plan, and the other party can actually predict that Argentina will have a war with Britain, and Argentina also needs a large number of Exocet missiles! When Mhammad met his acquaintance Aranya and assured him that he could get the Exocet missile, the other man's eyes lit up! Of course, this requires the trust of the other party, if there is no foreshadowing in the past two years, he will not be able to have a relationship with Aranyara, even if there is a flying fish on hand, there is no buyer joint.

Thinking of this, he admired his superiors even more, as for the oil exploitation rights of the Falklands, the superiors must still have countermeasures, this first time, of course, just to give the other party a reminder, so that the other party has a psychological preparation, and then, step by step, the other party has to slowly agree to their own requirements, because, they will eventually have no way out!

With the level of Mhammad, he can only know that it was the instructions of his superiors, and he does not know that the real mastermind of this matter is General Andrei, who is famous in the entire Soviet Union and the whole world!

And at this time, Andrei was leading a large fleet through the Strait of Gibraltar, preparing to enter the Atlantic.

The Strait of Gibraltar is located between the southernmost part of the Iberian Peninsula in Spain and the northwest corner of Africa, with the British colony of Gibraltar on the north shore and Morocco on the south coast. It is an important gateway between the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean. It is also one of the most important straits in the world.

Now, the Soviet aircraft carrier group is swaggering here, looking at the beautiful scenery on both sides of the strait, but Andrei's face is full of some desire to look at it.

"This is the gateway to and from the Mediterranean, and although our strength is not strong enough now, when we arrive, we must control this place in our hands." Andrei said.

The captain of the aircraft carrier, Victor, on the side, was already able to accept Andrey's remarks, because, when he came out of the Black Sea straits, Andrei made even more bold statements: "We will solve the problems here within ten years, the entire Black Sea Strait is the gateway to the Black Sea, and we must control this place in our hands." ”

AndrΓ©'s wishes, of course, are not limited to these, in addition to the Black Sea straits, Andrei is also very interested in the Strait of Gibraltar, a key place that guards the gateway to the entire Mediterranean.

Whoever controls the oceans controls the world! And to control the ocean, of course, is to control the key nodes.

The Strait of Gibraltar, originally Spanish, was conquered by the British in 1704 in the Spanish Continuing War. Spain had no choice but to declare in the Treaty of Utrecht in 1713 that Gibraltar would be ceded to Britain forever. After the British occupied Gibraltar, a military fortress was established here, which controlled the communication of the strait.

The sun never sets on the empire, there were so many colonies in those days, it was through the colonies that their flag was planted in any corner of the world, and, in later generations, it was also the only colony in Europe, and Spain never gave up its claim to regain sovereignty over Gibraltar. There had been several dialogues and negotiations with the British Government in the hope of resolving the status of Gibraltar, but the vote of the local government and the inhabitants of Gibraltar did not wish to return to Spain, and they were willing to maintain the status quo, which was to live independently under the protection of the British.

If the Soviet Union wants to seize this place, it has to pay attention to means, relying solely on force, and cannot really conquer the world, just like the mustache a few decades ago, it is not good to be a war maniac, you have to drive your own warship to reason with others! Just like now.

"Once we're out of the Strait of Gibraltar, we're going to go into the Atlantic." Victor said: "We will be about two hundred nautical miles away from the British fleet. ”

In the past few days, the Soviet Union has again launched several satellites, and at the same time adjusted the orbits of some satellites in orbit, so that, almost every moment, there are satellites monitoring the whereabouts of the British fleet.

The fleets of the Soviet Union and Britain set off almost at the same time, and the route taken by the Soviet warships was actually longer than that of the British fleet, far greater than 200 nautical miles, but the British fleet was also mixed with a lot of civilian ships, and their speed was not fast, the average speed was about ten knots, which was also the normal cruising speed of warships. The fleet of the Soviet Union, on the other hand, maintained a high speed of more than twenty knots. Burning some oil is nothing, and now the USSR has low-cost fuel oil.

"After leaving the Strait of Gibraltar, take off two warplanes and say hello to the British." Andrei said.

If the British are quiet, then they can still maintain an unrelated attitude, after all, Andrei is also very kind and doesn't want to make trouble. However, just in the Mediterranean, the British sent land-based Tornado fighters to greet their side, and of course they were unceremonious, on the Atlantic, give the British a greeting first!
