Soviet Union 1991

(Third update)

"You mean to let those losers regain control of the three Baltic countries? Wouldn't it be too fanciful to think so?" When President Mario heard Gates' plan, the first thing that came to his mind was rejection, so much so that he even I forgot that I originally wanted to blame Gates for his mistakes in strategic publicity.

The latter paced back and forth in his office excitedly, promoting his idea to President Mario, "No, this is not a whim, but an action that can be put into practice. We all know that although the Soviet Union has a strong and high-pressure policy, The demands of the original Baltic people have been suppressed, but this does not mean that the Estonian people have given up their resistance. Now they need a spiritual leader to lead them. I think it is time for the exile government to call on the people to revolt."

"Riots? Are you sure that will work?" President Mario was somewhat skeptical of Gates' idea. Unlike President Bush, who let the CIA muddy the waters in Eastern Europe, he did not let the CIA muddy the waters. Instead, he tightly held the CIA's money. bag. For Mario, he will not take actions that have no effect.

"I just want to know what effect the CIA can achieve by spending so much money, including providing weapons? The Bay of Pigs incident? Or this Los Angeles riots?"

President Mario specifically used the term Los Angeles riots to warn Gates that if his intelligence work made mistakes and did not achieve the results he wanted, terrible consequences would occur. If it doesn't hit Los Angeles, just wait to feel the president's wrath.

Gates suddenly became nervous. He did not expect that the president would force him to issue a "military order." He originally just wanted President Mario to personally sign for the funds generated by this operation, but he did not expect that he would use force to make him make a promise. For a moment, Gates felt that he had entered a dead end, or a dead end with no way out.

"Of course we are guaranteed to achieve results that satisfy the president." Gates gritted his teeth and gave Mario an ambiguous answer, neither admitting nor denying, leaving a little room for discussion in the future. He chose to persist because the CIA had been planning this operation for almost four months, and had even made contact with potential civil opposition forces in the three Baltic countries. As long as the United States was willing to provide weapons, they could launch an armed rebellion.

So this is one of the reasons why Gates dared to take such risky actions. Thinking about turning the three Baltic countries into another version of the Bay of Pigs incident and causing a new round of national crisis in the Soviet Union for less than overthrowing Castro, Gates believes that this risky transaction is worth making.

"Very good." Surprisingly, Mario did not hesitate too much and directly signed his name on Gates' approval document. He handed the document to Gates. Said, "I hope you won't disappoint me, Gates. It's up to you whether the Soviet Union can make a big stumble in its national policy this time."

President Mario is the kind of person who can't live a good life even if I don't live well. The United States suffered heavy losses in the Los Angeles incident. Then the ethnic issue in the Soviet Union must not be let go. If there is a fire in my backyard, I must let the Soviet Union start a fire in the backyard.

"I will never let the president down." Gates said resolutely. His hands even trembled when he took the document handed to him by the president. This is an event that will go down in history regardless of success or failure. At that time, the CIA will write a big book about this incident and let everyone know that they made the Soviet Union pay a heavy price.

After Gates left the presidential office, he finally let out a long breath. If President Mario had not agreed, he would have secretly mobilized CIA funds to carry out independent political struggles in the three Baltic countries. He had even used part of the secret circulation funds. For Vytautas, fortunately, the president's final decision prevented him from worrying too much about this issue.

And then all we have to do is find ways to deal with the problem of the three Baltic countries. Once Gates returned to the CIA. In the office hall, he clapped his hands excitedly and shouted to the employees who were working hard, "Don't be in a daze, everyone, please take action and finish the bureau that has been designed before. We have got the president." Yes, boys, let's have a blast."

Almost everyone cheered. They were waiting for this moment to come. These people had not planned such a major action for a long time. The CIA even allocated a third of its personnel to the Soviet operation. Gates codenamed this operation "The Free World Strikes Back," aiming to set this operation as revenge for what the Soviet Union had done before.

Gates wants to give the Soviet giant a heads-up again after the Beslan incident. At least Gates will have to pursue another victory after a victory to stabilize his upward career. After returning to the office. Gates received a call from Vytautas, who told Gates a piece of good news with uncontrollable excitement.

"Yes, Director Gates. We have made contact with the secret organizations in Lithuania and Latvia. Although the Soviet military and police departments have been constantly tracking them for more than a year, their main forces have not been broken up and they still maintain a certain degree of stability. We can ship weapons from the Polish border to Lithuania and Latvia, and the liberation groups still secretly control those ports to prepare for counterattacks."

"Very good." This good news was definitely the most touching thing Gates had heard in the past few days. He said to Vytautas, "I want to know how many people they have, so that I can prepare how many weapons to attack."

"Their main force is about a thousand people, most of whom are young people who are against the Soviet government, and some are former Soviet soldiers of Lithuanian or Latvian ethnicity. But their situation is very bad. Because of the Soviet rule, most people do not have firearms, and only a small number of people have small-caliber pistols." Vytautas replied.

Hearing that the main force was young people who had not received any military training, Gates questioned their combat capabilities. "How about this, you smuggle some of the young people to Poland, where they will receive new armed training."

As the first front against the Soviet Union and Russia, Poland and the Soviet Union are almost enemies, and this is the seed planted since the First Republic. Because of this, the CIA can legitimately establish its own safe house and training base in the local area to arm and train those anti-Soviet elements. After Poland's independence in 1989, it was natural for it to get closer to NATO and the United States. Isn't Polandball's ambition to become a powerful country in Central Europe again and restore the First Republic? Now that the opportunity to fight against the Soviet Union is in front of you, Poland has joined the secret copy of the challenge to the red polar bear without thinking.

The CIA's consideration is to train some Polish youth to become excellent snipers. Even if this riot fails, they can use the method of assassinating leaders to harass the Soviet authorities for a long time. Anyway, the CIA never makes a loss-making business, and they calculate every step just right.

"Okay, we will let the resistance organization select some excellent personnel to Poland for training." Vytautas replied. After discussing some other important details with Gates, he hung up the phone and started to prepare a new plan.

Gates also called the director of the CIA's Central European Strategic Operations. He briefly proposed that a group of professional soldiers should be hired at a high price to form combat-capable mercenaries to cooperate with the resistance personnel of the three Baltic countries to carry out armed riots. Gates emphasized that it would be best if they had simple backgrounds and did not want any KGB spies to be mixed in.

What the CIA did not know was that while they were plotting, the same intelligence document was delivered to Yanayev's desk, and it recorded the recent actions of the Baltic secret resistance organization. Through this document, the Soviet Union had a clear view of the complex secret forces of the three Baltic countries.

CIA Director Gates even overlooked a crucial thing, that is, every step he took was exactly the same as he imagined, and he did not expect the plan to go too smoothly. Was it because the enemy was hopelessly stupid, or was he stepping into a more sophisticated trap. (To be continued.)
