Big Time 1958 - Chapter 991
On the question of Indonesia and Australia in East Timor, which side of the Soviet Union is still in doubt? Backing off at a critical moment can only disappoint the Soviet Union’s own allies, especially a relatively powerful country like Indonesia, an important ally for the Soviet Union to contain Australia.
The area is not as good as Australia, the economy is not as good as Australia, so what? Indonesia has a large population, and a country with a large population has a greater capacity to bear, and can share the pressure on more individuals to reduce the pressure during confrontation.
“I see how long Reagan can endure, and we must force Reagan to confront us!” Serov and other Indonesian foreign ministers said to their comrades after leaving Moscow, “Australia is the descendant of British immigrants, and the United States must rescue. Indonesia It is not a small country, and the Seventh Fleet alone cannot contain it. Even if the United States is unwilling, we must find a way to make the Fifth Fleet in the Persian Gulf move, so that the U.S. Navy has no time to care.”
“In this step of confrontation, Indonesia is used as a base. Indonesia’s own potential is above Australia, which can help us reduce the pressure of confrontation on the ocean.” When it comes to ocean confrontation, Marshal Gorshkov, commander of the Soviet Red Navy, must be present. Yes, this time the protagonist is the Soviet Red Navy.
The strength of the Soviet Red Navy in 1988 was unprecedentedly close to that of the US Navy. This was true both in the Serov Soviet Union and in Gorbachev’s Soviet Union. However, if the Soviet Red Navy confronts the US Navy in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, there is still no chance of winning. The difference lies in the surface fleet. The further the depths of the ocean from land, the lower the odds of the Soviet Red Navy’s victory. Therefore, the protagonist of the Soviet Red Navy in Chile is basically an existing fleet, which never leaves the Chilean port. Protecting the Allende regime is the biggest mission of the squadron. Anyway, as long as the war does not start, Allende is safe.
“Fortunately, the distance between Indonesia and Australia is not far, otherwise we will be very disadvantaged. The short-range ballistic missiles we deployed in Indonesia can cover up the shortage.” Shelov compared the distance between Australia and Indonesia. As long as Indonesia is used as a base, it is not that there is no The possibility of confrontation between the US Navy, as for the confrontation in the ocean, don’t even think about it, the Red Navy is not a fool.
“Will the United States threaten Indonesia first?” Marshal Gorshkov carefully listened to the general secretary’s deduction and raised his own doubts. Because of the contradiction between Indonesia and Australia, this confrontation plan is based on the US Navy. First on the basis of the threat to Indonesia.
“Of course!” Serov thought of not wanting to answer directly, “The U.S. Navy will definitely be dispatched to threaten Indonesia!” This is not a big spy chief acting as a prophet again, there is no such confrontation in history, he has no reference things to make decisions?
This judgment is based on the behavior of the United States. From World War II to this year, the United States has sent troops almost twice a year for more than 40 years, and the war zones have spread all over the world. Even in the 1970s when the Soviet Union was aggressively attacking, in 1974, the United States interfered with the nationalist regime of Manlay in Jamaica. 1976 in Angola: Supporting and commanding rebels against the background of the racist regime in South Africa. In El Salvador in 1977: The United States supported a military coup in El Salvador, and 70,000 locals and four American nuns were killed. In 1979, they intervened in the civil war in Nicaragua.
This year, in the 40 years since the end of World War II, the US military has made 80 military interventions. Among them, the least occurred in the 1970s, and only four in ten years, because the Soviet offensive left the United States breathless.
Now the U.S. economy has been hit hard, and there is a bit of a downturn. The situation is no different from that of the United States in the 1970s, and it is not that it is about to die.
Australia is not an ordinary country. As a member of the Commonwealth of Nations, it is very important to the United States. Once the dispute between Indonesia and Australia expands, the United States will send its navy to threaten Indonesia.
“With the Pacific Fleet and the Mediterranean Fleet, the U.S. Navy should be able to stay away.” Marshal Gorshkov calculated a little and felt that there was no chance of winning. The Northern Fleet and the Baltic Fleet are not suitable for dispatch. The two fleets are too far away from Indonesia, and the expedition of labor and division is not easy.
After Marshal Gorshkov left, Ligachev, the second secretary who had been silent, said, “General secretary, I don’t understand, Reagan has less than two years left in his term, and we can wait for Reagan. Step down, why must Reagan be forced to confront us?”
“The tasks we can accomplish should not be left to future generations. It is our obligation to end the Cold War as soon as possible.” Shelov did not criticize the second secretary. The second secretary needs authority, and guided him in a good manner. “Under normal circumstances, the US president’s There is no scruples in the second term, because it is impossible to be re-elected, so it is more dangerous. I also understand this,”
“But?” Serov patted Ligachev on the shoulder and said, “You asked me to wait for the next third-rate actor to come out and fight against us. It’s not an easy task. Over the past few years, we have Under a lot of pressure, you may also see that the confrontation of the United States overdrawn energy has also paid a very high price. This kind of exhaustion is the same for the United States and our Soviet Union, but I believe that our system is more enduring. Appropriately When the time comes, you can create war public opinion, this is your job, Second Secretary!”
“Okay!” Although Ligachev has some reservations in his heart, he believes that time is on the side of the Soviet Union. Almost every year, the strength of the Soviet Union will become stronger and stronger, but some public opinion’s preparation for war is not a bad thing.
“We have hoarded weapons and equipment for decades. There is always a chance to give it a try. Otherwise, how can I know if it will work?” Serov waited until Ligachev left and shook his head. When the United States can no longer bear it, a war may come. . Either in Europe or in the Middle East anyway, the Middle East seems more likely and the risk of war is less.
In the first month of 1988, just after the New Year, the Thai government mobilized the People’s Army to formally clear up the peaceful separatist forces entrenched in the south. The Communist Party of Malaysia, also organized in southern Thailand, announced that it would help the Thai government army. Contain the separatist forces in southern Thailand and join the settlement war together.
The peace believers in southern Thailand have always wanted independence, and for a long time have had a bad relationship with the Malaysian Communist Party, who was temporarily in southern Thailand, because the Malaysian Communist Party used southern Thailand as a base for counterattacks against Malaysia. Because the Communist Party of Malaysia is temporarily in Thailand, it has always supported the settlement of the Thai government, so it is the enemy of Thai peace believers.
The 30,000 Thai People’s Army mobilized by Thailand from the north, with the support of the local Malaysian People’s Army, marched to the four provinces of Pattani, Taogong, Yala and Satun in southern Thailand. In Pattani, the Thai People’s Army was attacked. When the attack of the local Peace Religion armed forces came, the two sides exchanged fiercely here. The Thai People’s Army used water and land tanks, rocket launchers and fighter jets to carry out large-scale fire coverage on the towns occupied by the rebels.
The White House of the United States immediately responded to the actions of the Thai government, fiercely accusing the Thai government of violating human rights. “Human rights are above all rights and cannot be violated for any reason. The United States is closely concerned about human rights violations in southern Thailand.”
“Human rights are a good thing, but there is no right to say who is higher and who is lower. I personally think that as long as it is a right that Americans often mention, it is not a good thing.” Shelov learned of the White House’s response to the action of the Thai People’s Army After that, he just smiled, and immediately, the United States would find that the group of disciples and grandchildren supported by Reagan were all within the scope of the attack, without one exception.
In less than five days, Iraq and Syria jointly announced that they would carry out military strikes against the rebels in the border area to contain the common enemy of the two countries. Subsequently, the Syrian Arab Socialist Baath Party and the Iraqi Communist Party signed a mutual aid treaty to fight the border between the two countries. Religious armed forces carry out coordinated strikes.
Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak said in a public speech, “Those extreme religious elements are the enemy of all Egyptians. We want to build a secular, open and inclusive country, not an ancient religion that determines everything. Backward regime, this process is not Westernization, but our own modernization.”
After Egypt declared the Brotherhood of Peace as an illegal organization, Sudan, Libya, and Morocco followed suit and declared the Brotherhood of Peace as illegal, and governments of various countries began to ban this multinational organization. Throughout the Middle East, the military forces of various countries have moved to take action against their own anti-government forces.
Immediately after, the Iranian People’s Army entered the Balochistan region and carried out military strikes against the local separatist organizations. After a few years of silence in Angola, conflict broke out again. The Angolan government announced the end of the ceasefire, and the Angolan Movement must unconditionally lay down its arms.
This is more like a joint operation. In almost all the allies of the Soviet Union, the forces supported by Reagan are on the list of illegal organizations without exception, or they are identified as separatist forces, or they are identified as religious forces, or they are banned. , or destroyed, the powerful anti-government organizations directly attracted the settlement of government forces from various countries.
Almost instantly, Reagan was stunned by the urgent news everywhere, and now the White House of the United States does not even know where to start the protests, “The conspiracy of the international anti-American forces is getting more and more violent, and it cannot be ruled out that the Soviet Union is behind the support. Yes, these pro-Soviet satellite countries will sooner or later be spurned by their own people. We call on the UN Security Council to come up with a resolution to stop this kind of human rights violations with obvious purposes.”
“I just remembered the Security Council now? I don’t know what the Security Council thinks of the Rhine Camp?” Shelov laughed at the accusation from the United States. Instead, he paid more attention to the report sent by his son. The joint investigation team has used heavy machinery to inspect many places and is about to arrive. Camp Brezenheim.
