Red Soviet Union Chapter 174

If the two sides cannot reach an agreement, then the third world war may really start. After all, the United States is the leader of the Western world, and their concessions cannot be too much.

Therefore, Dobrynin solemnly proposed to the Americans the territory north of Kushiro-Rumoi, which is equivalent to the Soviet Union to spit out some land. After all, depending on the momentum, occupying the entire Hokkaido is only a matter of time, and the Americans agreed.

Now, Dobrynin has relayed this opinion to China on the terms put forward by the Americans, hoping that the high-level officials in Moscow can agree.

"Now, we have to consider the conditions of the Americans, whether to continue to occupy the entire Hokkaido, or to occupy the north of Rumoi-Kushiro." Secretary of the Secretariat Suslov said.

The secretary of the secretariat has always been the second-in-command of the Kremlin. After Kirilenko was abolished by Brezhnev and left the ****, Suslov replaced Kirilenko and became Secretary of the Secretariat.

Mikhail Andreevich Suslov was born on November 7, 1902 in a poor peasant family in the town of Shakhovsk, Ulyanovsk region. He began to participate in the revolutionary movement for 20 years. 21 years in the party. In 1947, he became the secretary of the Central Committee. After Zhdanov's death in 1948, Suslov began to be in charge of government work. In 1949, he became the editor-in-chief of Pravda, and in 1952, he became a member of the Central Committee.

He is also an important figure in the Central Committee of the Soviet Union, and Andropov and others are very supportive of Brezhnev's decision.

The wily Andropov, of course, knows that he is not suitable to sit in that position, otherwise Brezhnev will easily be suspected, and Suslov is a good candidate, just look at this guy's words now out of breath You can tell by the look of anger, this position will be vacated soon.

Moreover, many of Suslov's political views are the same as Andropov's, especially when it comes to punishing gangsters within the party. This man is very innocent. They don't seek benefits for themselves, they don't engage in corruption, and their two children have yet to get any important positions.

"From a military point of view. Our current situation is very good. In five days, we can occupy the entire Hokkaido, facing the mainland of the island country across the sea, and this is also conducive to our defense. Across the Tsugaru Strait, It's better than bordering directly on land, as in Germany," said Defense Minister Ustinov.

It seems that we can occupy Hokkaido. This victory makes Ustinov very excited. To be able to occupy so quickly, tactics are the most important condition. Andre's proposal is very correct!

To the meat of the mouth, and then spit it out? Ustinov certainly did not want to, from a military point of view. Occupying the entire Hokkaido is of great significance to the Soviet Union's Far East layout!

"However, now that the Americans have bowed their heads to us, if we agree to their proposal, then we can justifiably occupy the territory north of Kushiro-Rumoi without being blamed by the Western world in the international community." Foreign Minister Gromyko said: "Our operation has completely achieved our strategic goals, and we must also take into account the attitude of the Western world."

Gromyko was tall, with gleaming eyes, though he was also an old man. At this time, he was still in high spirits and looked at problems more comprehensively, and his main qualifications were almost all dealing with the outside world. Since 1939, he has served as Director-General of the Americas Department of the People's Commissariat of Foreign Affairs, Ambassador to the United States, Permanent Representative to the UN Security Council, Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs, and Ambassador to the United Kingdom. In 1957, he was the Minister of Foreign Affairs. In 1973, he was elected as a member of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union.

Ustinov considered it from a military point of view, and Gromyko, more importantly, from a diplomatic point of view, the Soviet Union's actions in Hokkaido were considered by the Western world to be a barbaric act of aggression, now. All of Western Europe was verbally condemning Soviet barbarism. Although the Soviet Union has always gone its own way, and its reputation has long been smeared by the Western world, there is still a crisis behind it.

For example, once the Americans raise their arms, there may be a crowd of people who will ring and form a joint army, go to the island country, and fight the Soviet Union, and the situation will be unmanageable. The strategic goal of the Soviet Union was to gain an outlet to the Pacific Ocean, not a world war.

The Americans are willing to bow their heads and acquiesce to the Soviet Union's territorial claims north of Rumoi-Kushiro. They might as well go with the flow and obtain justice in the international arena. As for the southern part of Hokkaido, it can be delayed for a while. Anyway, with the northern territory, If you don't have to fight across the sea, what's so difficult about that? Can move forward at any time.

Gromyko's opinion is that it is good to go. The Americans can agree to the Soviet occupation of northern Hokkaido, which is already a great victory for the Soviets.

"Yes, we have achieved our strategic goal." Brezhnev said: "Our operation this time was very successful, forcing the Americans to bow their heads and agree that we occupy Kushiro and our Pacific Fleet can move forward at any time. Out of the Pacific!"

Now that Brezhnev has already agreed, Ustinov will of course not insist on it any longer. The success of this operation, Ustinov's prestige within the army has also risen again~www.mtlnovel.com~ He himself is also very satisfied with the current results.

"Since the Americans agree to our occupation of the area north of Kushiro-Rumoi, we must always be on guard against counter-offensives by the islanders. We should establish rule in this area as soon as possible. I propose that the Far Eastern Military Region establish the Hokkaido Special Region of the Far Eastern Military Region here, and appoint a As the top commander, the commander who dares to fight is directly responsible to the Far East Military Region." Ustinov said.

Everyone can see that when the occupation of the north of Kushiro-Rumoi in Hokkaido is achieved, this place will become a new powder keg, whether the islanders will use insidious tactics behind their backs and carry out guerrilla warfare to harass the occupying army. ? Wouldn't the island council actively reorganize its troops and prepare for a counteroffensive? It is very necessary to establish a special area directly under the military region and directly report to the commander-in-chief of the Far East Military Region.

And once the battle continues, this will also be the front line.

Brezhnev nodded: "Yes, all the troops that have landed in Hokkaido now will be stationed in Hokkaido. At the same time, the air force and air defense force will be stationed. Kushiro Port and Rumoi Port will also develop into the Pacific Fleet. Base, we need a qualified commander, Ustinov, do you have a suitable candidate?"

As the front line of the confrontation, there are six divisions of the Soviet Union here, all of which must stay, and there may be more troops in the later period. As Minister of Defense, Ustinov has the right to choose the commander.

"I think Colonel Andrei Vladimirvich Tolstoy is the most suitable, and he can be awarded the rank of major general as the commander of this direct region," Ustinov said. To be continued.
