Moscow.

The climate in April has begun to become warmer, the snow has long since melted, people have taken off their bloated thick clothes, put on trench coats, and girls who love beauty, with high heels, the whole city seems to be active again. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

In the Kremlin in the center of the city, in a conference room on the second floor, the atmosphere is also very lively at this time.

"The Americans have finally thrown in the towel!" Brezhnev sat in his place and scratched his head with his hand, at this time, the hair on his head was already thin, and he was in good spirits.

"Carter, you guy, I'm not old yet." Brezhnev felt extremely happy in his heart.

Hearing Brezhnev's words, Andropov and Ustinov, who were sitting below, glanced at each other, without any expression on their faces, but with a knowing smile in their hearts.

In this war, it is not easy to get the general secretary to agree. After all, in the struggle for hegemony between the United States and the Soviet Union, any friction between the two sides may lead to a dangerous world war!

But for the Soviets to break through, they had to take a courageous step forward! After the hard-line Ustinov came to power, he was always planning how to break through the encirclement of the Western world.

Western Europe is thinking about it, and it is quite difficult to plant the Soviet flag in Western Europe, and Ustinov thinks of a solution, one is to break through in Central Asia, from the Indian Ocean! And now, the idea lacked sufficient external circumstances, and the USSR could not directly start a war, and in the Far East, it was Andrei who gave him a creative idea.

Get a breakthrough from the Far East in Hokkaido! Find an ice-free port for the Soviet Pacific Fleet, and you can go straight out of the Pacific Ocean! Especially the submarine forces. In the Pacific Ocean, it is possible to directly deter the US land!

Ustinov is already tempted. Last year, the mobilization of troops began. This includes the transfer of several warships from the west to the Far East to strengthen the Pacific Fleet there. And this year, just as the Americans began to look for trouble in the Far East again, they actually used civilian airliners as reconnaissance planes to reconnoiter bases on Sakhalin Island, but they were later shot down by the Soviet air defense forces, and on the contrary, they slandered the Soviet Union. This is simply an active provocation!

This has already pushed the USSR into a dangerous position, and if the USSR does not give them a little color, the Americans will have to inch in!

However, when Ustinov's plan for the military was presented at the meeting, it was not approved by the general secretary.

Brezhnev had to consider the overall situation, if a world war was ignited, it would not be good for the Soviet Union, and as the supreme leader, he still had to think more carefully.

This made Ustinov depressed. Without the approval of the General Secretary, the layout of the Far East cannot be carried out!

And at this moment, the KGB again helped Ustinov. A KGB agent hiding in the United States. Got a top-secret piece of intelligence, and the top of the Americans were actually laughing at the top of the Soviet Union!

The cynicism between the two sides. It is also common, however. The ridicule at the meeting in the White House made Brezhnev angry.

"Brezhnev? The old man. One foot has stepped on the door of hell, and he still refuses to give up the power in his hands, the Soviet Union has entered its twilight years! Where is like us in the United States, vibrant! ”

That's Carter's exact words! How could these words not make Brezhnev furious! That Carter, although twenty years younger than Brezhnev, but, as a politician, the old man has the advantage of being an old man, and the old man has a lot of experience and has experienced too much!

Carter actually proudly cursed Brezhnev to death, and after hearing the news, Brezhnev attended a series of events and said that he was alive.

If this made Brezhnev angry, then other words made Brezhnev feel the urge to strangle Carter.

"That old guy still likes to play same-sex tricks! Look at him, he has come up with the etiquette of a man's kissing! ”

In the Brezhnev era, there was a frightening thing, and that was the "Brezhnev kiss"!

This type of kiss is also known as the Brezhnev triple kiss, which involves kissing both cheeks and then the lips. Brezhnev kissed the leaders of the socialist countries and the republics, and the kiss of the East German leader Honecker was carried to the Berlin Wall by the artist. However, the dignitaries of various countries who were kissed by him were few willing and happy.

Brezhnev also wanted to kiss the Iron Lady, but was cleverly dodged by the Iron Lady and wanted to kiss Castro, but Castro just lit a cigar, and in the Western world, the first leader of the ceremonial to accept Brezhnev's kiss is actually the current nemesis Carter!

In Brezhnev's mind, this was a friendly way to increase the relationship between the two parties, his kissing did not have any such fetishes, and no one dared to accuse him of this.

Carter dared to say that! This made Brezhnev finally couldn't help it and agreed to Ustinov's proposal to teach the Americans a lesson that will last a lifetime!

At the same time, after the analysis of others, as long as the Soviet troops moved fast enough, the Americans lacked the courage to continue the confrontation, and as long as it did not become a glued war like Vietnam, victory belonged to the Soviets!

Now, sure enough, the Americans simply did not have time to transfer troops from the mainland, and actually took the initiative to ask the Soviet Union for peace, agreeing in principle to the Soviet Union's occupation of the northern part of the Rumo-Kushiro line, hoping that the Soviet Union would withdraw its troops from Chitose and other places!

If Carter knew that the ultimate reason for the Soviet Union to start the war was actually unfounded, I don't know how he would feel.

In short, the present form is to respond to the conditions put forward by the Americans, whether to continue to insist on the occupation of all of Hokkaido, or to occupy the area north of Rumo-Kushiro as proposed by the Americans?

This is the message delivered by Ambassador Dobrynin. At this time, Moscow did not know, and Dobrynin did not know how many words he had greeted the Moscow top brass in his heart.

As an important diplomat of the Soviet Union, Dobrynin has always assumed the role of fire captain, acting as a mediator between the United States and the Soviet Union.

This time, the Soviet attack on Hokkaido was not notified in advance at all, and Dobrynin had to uphold the justice of the USSR according to Moscow's will, and now, he had to play the role of a mediator!

Mediation is to find terms that are satisfactory to both sides, and now that the Soviet Union has already started to move on Hokkaido, it is absolutely impossible to get the Soviet Union to withdraw from Hokkaido again. And if the Soviet Union occupied the whole of Hokkaido, then the United States would not agree, it would be more realistic to ask for the territory north of Kushiro, according to Moscow's original statement.
