Red Soviet Union Chapter 172

"We will not give up Hokkaido. If the Soviets get the territory north of Rumoi-Kushiro, they will gain access to the Pacific Ocean!" Defense Minister General Harold said: "The Pacific Ocean is ours and must be blocked. Export of the Soviet Union!"

After meeting with the Soviet ambassador, Warren returned to the round table, where everyone remained, and Harold initially disagreed after hearing Warren's retelling of the conditions.

"Then we have to prepare for a big war. We have to help the islanders and retake Hokkaido. We have to mobilize at least 100,000 troops to go to Hokkaido." CIA Director Stan Fitner, who has been silent for a while, entered will speak.

An army of 100,000 people! After the United States withdrew its troops from Vietnam, there has been no large-scale military mobilization. It is really difficult to assemble an army of 100,000 people in a hurry! Moreover, it has to be transported thousands of miles to the island country! Personnel, plus equipment, are absolutely impossible if they don't work for two or three months.

"Why so many?" asked President Carter.

"Because we have the latest intelligence again," said Admiral Stein-Fittner. "The Soviets are already in Vladivostok, and they are transporting two of their army reorganization divisions to Otaru, and once they are in Otaru, Landing, the Soviet army in Hokkaido will have more than six divisions, with a total force of more than 80,000! If we want to solve the Soviets militarily, we must use more military force, 100,000 or a few, Once the Soviets continue to increase their troops, we have to continue to increase the garrison."

The Soviets will continue to invest in troops! Moreover, Otaru fell into the hands of the Soviets, and the Soviets will add more troops at any time!

"The army of the island country is not fighting, the latest battle report, the 7th division of the island country is attacking Kushiro, when the day dawned, a tank regiment was reimbursed, the Soviet T-72 tanks, the firepower is very strong ." Vice President Walter followed up: "Now. The four divisions deployed by the island country in Hokkaido, the 2nd and 7th divisions are already at a disadvantage in Kushiro, the 2nd division is still in Asahikawa, and the 11th division is still in Asahikawa. The regiment did not dare to dispatch in Sapporo city. Defend their Sapporo. The islanders are mobilizing new divisions from the mainland. However, from the perspective of combat effectiveness, the island army can never stop the invasion of the Soviets. We must do it quickly. If we wait for the Soviets to completely occupy Hokkaido, our negotiations will go bankrupt.”

Talking at this time, the Soviets have not yet occupied the entire Hokkaido, and there is still room for negotiation. When the Soviets have occupied the entire Hokkaido and then negotiate, it will be too late.

Because of Hokkaido, go to war with the Soviet Union? Now is not the time for the Cuban Missile Crisis in the 1960s, when the United States was quite tough. America just emerged from the quagmire of the Vietnam War and plunged into a new world war?

Be careful, be careful!

The vice president's words meant that he was in favor of negotiation.

"Brzezinski, what do you think?" Carter asked the person next to him.

As National Security Assistant, Brzezinski has always disapproved of too many conflicts in the Far East. Now, everyone understands that Mao Xiong is not easy to mess with and does not follow the rules of the game! The play is too big. How does it end now?

"I think our center of gravity has always been Europe," Brzezinski said. "Europe has important industrial and defense potential for our Western world. It is the center of gravity for our entire Western world. Now. Our pressure in the West. It's too big, facing a torrent of armored Soviets at any time, the Soviets are always thinking about planting their flag all over Western Europe. And now, the Soviets are actually going to the Far East, for us, this may be A chance. If Hokkaido is divided, the Soviets will think about occupying the entire island country at any time, and they will shift their military focus to the Far East, so that our pressure in Western Europe will be much less. So, this matter Not necessarily all bad things. Our strategic focus has always been in Europe. Island countries, it is not worth us to use a large number of troops to win some territory for them. Anyway, Hokkaido does not have any important industries. Moreover, in the island countries, there are still some that do not. Welcome us, it is better to let the islanders feel the immediate threat. And, most importantly, if we really want to go to war with the Soviet Union, it needs to be authorized by Congress. You should also know that, except for arms dealers , nobody else wants us to go to war with the Soviets."

The island country belongs to the Western capitalist world camp, and there are still some people who are dissatisfied with the United States, thinking that the United States symbolizes imperialism and sin, which is simply too much! Now, let them feel that the real evil is the USSR! The Soviets will invade the island country at any time, and the United States is there to protect the island country.

And, Congress! Large-scale support for the island country and a war in direct contact with the Soviet Union is not just the current air support and sea support. To send more than 100,000 troops to the past requires authorization from Congress. The just-concluded Vietnam War made most Americans hate war, and this proposal could not be passed in Congress at all.

Brzezinski said a lot of reasons, in fact, these reasons have some truth, but the most important thing is that the United States is really not suitable for a full-scale war with the Soviet Union at this time.

In the US-Soviet hegemony, both sides are fighting openly and secretly. However, at a critical time, there is always a retreat. Otherwise, the destruction of mankind will come. Now, this retreating role~www.mtlnovel.com~ has to make the Americans to act as.

"Okay, Warren, you will meet the Soviet ambassador again and let him convey our opinion to Moscow. If the Soviets are willing to end the dispute now, we can sit down and discuss the ownership of the area north of Rumoi-Kushiro. If Moscow still insists on going its own way. , that means challenging the bottom line of our entire Western world!" President Carter said: "Harold, immediately dispatch our local air force to the island base! At the critical moment, we will not be afraid to enter the war! We will dispatch our Pacific Fleet. The aircraft carrier battle group, go to the waters of the island country!"

When Carter said this, he was already acquiescing to the plan proposed by the Soviets, which is simply too embarrassing! The United States once again compromised with the evil Soviet Union, but it also had no choice.

Carter did not personally meet the Soviet ambassador and asked the Secretary of State to act as the speaker. At the same time, the United States must be prepared. If the Soviet Union really wants to go its own way, it will also mean the start of the third world war!

Brezhnev, why is this old guy getting older and more courageous? Has he really calculated that the United States will not enter a state of war? Damn it!

Looking at the dim lights outside, a few hours passed, Carter felt a little hungry, and then remembered that he had not eaten since the morning, he turned his head and looked at his brains, Harold The old face drooped, and Warren's face was not good-looking, but Brzezinski breathed a sigh of relief.

Alas, when I just entered the White House, I encountered so many things! Everything is testing his ability, but he always seems to be incompetent. When the news came out, the opposition party didn't know how to criticize itself. To be continued.
