Although the East has turned white, Moscow is still in the dark, at the darkest hour before dawn.
In the building of the Ministry of Defense, Ustinov stayed up all night. The ashtray in front of him was full. This was the first time he stayed up late in the past ten years.
Because he can't sleep, he can't fall asleep.
This action was not even approved by the Politburo, and it was entirely done by the army itself.
Of course, Ustinov is not afraid. After the General Secretary has agreed to start a war in the Far East, how to fight is a matter for the army. If anyone dares to point fingers at the army, he will have a hundred ways to make him die. No one is exception!
Because he has reached a tacit agreement with Andropov, and Andropov is supportive of the battle in the Far East. As long as he has the support of the KGB, even the general secretary is not against it. !
However, the international situation is very critical. During the day, our side planned to take advantage of the heavy fog to make a sudden landing in Hokkaido, and then seize the airport and port, and then land on Kushiro. This plan was hit hard, and their casualties were high. .
When he got the news, Ustinov knew that this battle must be fought if it can't be fought, because it can't be ashamed of the Soviets!
Don’t look at the Yankee’s politeness, keep it secret and treat it as an ordinary event. In this world, there is no impermeable wall. Sooner or later the whole world will know that if the Soviet Union suffered a defeat in Hokkaido, the Soviet Union’s international reputation will also be completely reduced. of.
Therefore, he must insist on fighting.
Sending out long-range bombers to raid American aircraft carrier formations can only be regarded as a feint.
If you really hit the aircraft carrier fleet, it is definitely not enough for bombers to dispatch. The Pacific Fleet must be dispatched, nuclear submarines must be dispatched, underwater, sea, and air, and all-round three-dimensional strikes can achieve breakthroughs.
The bombers were dispatched by one's own side, just to push the opponent's aircraft carrier formation far away, so that they could not intervene in the military operations in the northern Nemuro Strait.
Now Ustinov is anxiously waiting for news ahead.
Finally, without disappointing him, the assistant quickly walked in: "Report, a call from the Far East, our troops have successfully landed on the Shiretoko Peninsula, and now they have captured Rausu, and a large number of merchant ships are moving from Rausu landed and unloaded our troops."
Succeeded? As long as Rausu is captured, there will be a reliable port, although it is smaller, it is a port after all!
"Okay, great, immediately report the good news to the General Secretary!" Ustinov said.
Report to the general secretary? The assistant said: "The general secretary is still resting, right?"
The General Secretary is already old and his health is not very good, so when he is sleeping, he is very annoying to be disturbed.
"I will go personally!" Ustinov said, "The General Secretary will be very happy. Although we have some casualties, we have succeeded. We want to occupy Hokkaido and we want to make a breakthrough in the Far East! "
The breakthrough in the Far East was the establishment of Andre. In Europe, the Soviet Union and the West are evenly matched, and it is easy to detonate a world war. Therefore, although everyone is at war, there is no real possibility of doing it.
But it's different in the Far East. As long as you obtain Hokkaido, you will have an outlet to the Pacific. The Pacific Fleet can move in the Pacific at any time, and the Americans in the Far East will be pierced!
Moreover, it is not easy to detonate a world war. What else can the Americans do besides just sitting and watching the result? Today, let’s see if the American ambassador is as calm as yesterday? It is like giving alms to the Soviets, which the Soviets do not want.
The Soviets will use their fists to obtain what they want!
Ustinov was in high spirits.
Although the price is high, who pays attention to the process compared to the result? As a senior commander, you need to give orders. Those casualties are just cold numbers.
The Kitty Hawk aircraft carrier.
When the sirens sounded, Nathan was sleeping comfortably in his bed. The interception in the first half of the night consumed a lot of their physical strength. In the second half of the night, many people would suffer from insomnia. Very few, most people just fell asleep.
As a result, the alarm sounded again.
This siren is a command. When he heard the siren, Nathan immediately sat up from his own body and shouted to Gus on the other side: "Goos, hurry up, get up, there is an emergency."
Gus slept so badly that even the sirens couldn't wake Gus, so Nathan could only push him.
"Stop it, sleepy," Gus shouted.
"Get up, assemble urgently," Nathan shouted.
"What?" Gus suddenly became sober. When he heard the sharp sirens, he immediately sat up and put on his clothes quickly. In this case, he just wore a flight suit and was ready to get on the plane at any time.
A few minutes later, the two ran out of the room and headed for the conference room on the bridge.
In five minutes, everyone was in place, looking at the pilots under him, Colonel Petrobori had a strange expression on his face.
If you want to describe it, it's probably the kind of being strengthened, but afterwards it's getting fucked, and it's the kind that starts to suffer again after it's finished.
"Everyone, the news just got." Petrobori said: "The Soviet army landed in Hokkaido in the early hours of this morning."
The Soviets, landed in Hokkaido? Hearing this news, everyone did not believe it.
"How is it possible? Today is not April Fool's Day?"
"The Soviets were beaten up in the sky over Hokkaido, didn't they?"
Suddenly there was chaos in the conference room.
And Nathan's mind is more chaotic, what's the matter? Haven't you stopped the actions of the Soviets? Is it true that this historical trajectory insists on developing like that of the Red Soviet Union
"Yes, when I heard the news, I didn't believe it, but this is the fact." Petrobori said: "The superiors also sent us the news after confirmation. In the early morning, the Soviets used it. With tactical nuclear weapons, the Shiretoko Peninsula was blown out of a beach, the pioneer troops landed, and then captured Rausu. Now, the Soviet army is passing through Rausu and flooding Hokkaido. Everyone, the war has begun. Not a drill."
Petropaoli's tone is quite heavy. (End of this chapter)
