Soviet Union 1991

(Third update, nearly 10,000 words have been achieved. In fact, today is also the fourth update, but this plot is compressed into three chapters)

The Kuznetsov aircraft carrier with a displacement of up to 53,000 tons is approaching Japan's Hokkaido Island. Although it is said that they are conducting exercises in the Sea of ​​Okhotsk, they are actually continuing to approach Japan's waters, posing a strategic threat to it. The Maritime Self-Defense Force is now concentrating all its forces in the Tsushima Sea, and the Maritime Self-Defense Force has done nothing in Hokkaido Island.

In terms of strategic advantages, Kunashiri, Shikotan, Etorofu and Habomai Islands are all within the Soviet sphere of influence, and even the Nemuro Strait is not completely in their hands, while the Soviet fleet has a natural outlet to the sea, the Kunashiri Channel. In terms of naval strength, the Soviet Union has an aircraft carrier battle group that the Japanese Self-Defense Force cannot match, and what about Japan? Why don't you solve the security treaty that is locked around your neck first?

The Kuznetsov aircraft carrier, which is considered a giant in the Sea of ​​Okhotsk, is heading towards the South Kuril Islands, and next to it is the Varyag aircraft carrier that has just been launched and put into service. Although the Varyag will have to go through one or two years of debugging, the current ocean voyage also belongs to the observation part.

The sky is clear and the sea is blue. Walking on the deck of the Kuznetsov aircraft carrier is like walking on flat ground. No matter how the waves roll under your feet, there is no shaking at all. However, the naval sailors are not tired when sailing in the ocean, but are unusually excited. Because they are about to go to the Japanese waters to hit the monkeys of the archipelago country in the face. According to Marshal Smyrev, in the Pacific, except for the American fleet, no one can stop our steel waves from moving forward.

The naval soldiers of the Pacific Fleet almost instantly liked the term "steel waves". It is the same as the term "steel torrent" of the army. Privately, the soldiers call their aircraft carrier battle group the Steel Wave Fleet. They are a sharp blade that goes straight into the center of the Pacific Ocean. Any enemy in front of us is just a piece of soft tofu that can be cut at any time.

Just like the slogan proposed by Yanayev, the Pacific Fleet is to be domineering, "scare the barbarian ships away, and the uncle only cares about hitting them, not fishing." Do the small countries in East Asia want to challenge us? Are you tired of living? Except for the United States, you small countries that want to challenge us are all garbage, garbage, okay?

In this way, the Kuznetsov aircraft carrier battle group arrived at the Southern Kuril Islands without any hindrance. They will conduct live-fire exercises at sea in this waters closest to Japan. Of course, the Japanese Navy immediately sent naval forces to be vigilant and observe, fearing that the other side would use the name of the exercise to launch a surprise attack on itself. Of course, similar dirty things have been done in Japanese history.

However, the size of the Soviet fleet did surprise the Japanese Navy. In terms of the number of ships alone, Japan could not match it. Large and small ships surrounded the aircraft carrier like stars surrounding the moon, like a mobile sea fortress. There were also an astonishing number of carrier-based aircraft in the sky. It can be said that the only thing that can threaten the US Navy now is the Soviet fleet.

"Terrible fleet, terrible navy. What's more terrible is that such an enemy is actually adjacent to us. It's so close." This is the conclusion drawn by Japanese experts after observing the Soviet naval fleet. This reminds him of the eternal nightmare of Japan in Midway Island, Iwo Jima, and the Pacific Ocean, facing the US Pacific Fleet.

And now, this red nightmare is calling out the most terrible fear in the hearts of the Japanese Self-Defense Forces, the awe of a powerful opponent after the shattered dream of an arrogant country's navy. It's obvious. The current Soviet Union has inherited the fear that the Americans gave to Japan. The red steel waves from the north are trying to look at this poor island country.

The Soviet fleet even played an international joke on Japan. On the day of the exercise, the Soviet Navy suddenly claimed that a soldier had disappeared near the sea after the live-fire exercise. Although they did not ask to enter the Japanese waters to search, such a claim was enough to scare them.

The Japanese Army invaded other countries with such reasons. The Japanese Navy hurriedly upgraded Hokkaido to an emergency state of pre-war mobilization, and Japanese Prime Minister Kiichi Miyazawa also called the presidential hotline to the White House, hoping that the Soviet Union would really have a maritime conflict with Japan, and hoped that the Pacific Fleet would intervene quickly to prevent the escalation of the situation.

President Mario certainly agreed, and Washington immediately notified the Navy to let the Washington aircraft carrier battle group urgently go to the Sea of ​​Okhotsk to intercept the approaching Soviet fleet there. But when the Washington was halfway through the voyage, the Soviet fleet issued another statement, claiming that the lost soldiers had been found, and they would continue to conduct two days of live-fire training in the waters of the Southern Kuril Islands, and then withdraw from the Southern Kuril Islands.

Although on the surface, the Soviet Union seemed to be intimidated by the United States and was forced to withdraw its troops from here, in fact, it played a trick on the Pacific Fleet and the Japanese Navy. A futile long-distance raid, a terrified wait for rescue, and the previous exercises made the other side lose face. At least the strategic goal of the Soviet Pacific Fleet has been achieved. If anyone dares to come here sideways in the future, ask the brick in my hand first.

There is no doubt that Gen Nakatani has caused huge troubles. Even the usually gentle Japanese Prime Minister Kiichi Miyazawa got angry with him, "Is this what you call rebuilding the national strength of the Japanese military? Just forget about the failure of a joint exercise." , this time the Soviets walked into your home arrogantly, showed off their power to you, and even pulled out a knife to threaten you. Is this the result you want to see?"

"No." Although Zhongguyuan was unwilling to do so, he still had to bow his head and admit his mistake in the face of the Prime Minister's accusation.

"During World War II, you should have committed seppuku for this kind of behavior, Mr. Nakatani Gen. I have never seen such a stupid director of the Self-Defense Agency as you. You know that our military strength cannot match that of the Soviet Union, but you still insist on it." Go ahead, is this your so-called plan to reorganize the Japanese army?"

Miyazawa Kiichi's words were like a sharp knife piercing Nakatani's heart. He buried his head even lower. This time the fault must be borne by him alone, and Japan also needs a scapegoat.

"I hope that after this matter is resolved, you can submit your resignation to me." Miyazawa Kiichi's voice was very cold. The previous incident of Gen Nakatani and the U.S. government coercing him to purchase armaments is still vivid in his mind, which caused Japan's financial problems that should not have happened. The resulting deficit does not even have enough funds to cope with the economic downturn that has occurred during this period.

Gen Nakatani must be removed from the position of director of the Self-Defense Agency and replaced by someone to take charge of the overall situation, so that Miyazawa Kiichi can take time off from the palace's international affairs and concentrate on dealing with the overall domestic economic situation.

"I will submit my resignation and give an explanation to the cabinet." Zhongguyuan knew that his situation was over, and the only thing he could do was to save a little fire for himself, so that he could have a chance to make a comeback in the future.

"Very well, please step back. In a few days, I will have to negotiate with the Soviet government, regarding an apology statement for this incident, as well as peace negotiations on the four northern islands." Miyazawa Kiichi said helplessly, holding his forehead. It is hoped that a short-term compromise and concession can be used to exchange for the stability of Japan's surrounding environment.

As soon as he heard that Miyazawa Kiichi wanted to negotiate with the Soviet Union, Nakatani Gen immediately became anxious. He ignored the Prime Minister's order and stepped forward to dissuade Miyazawa Kiichi from his idea. "But the northern islands are of great significance to us, and they are even important to us." On the issue of divided sovereignty, if we make compromises and concessions in this regard, I am afraid that the entire Japanese society will lose confidence in us. I hope you will think twice, Prime Minister."

"Besides peace talks, do you have a better way?" Miyazawa Kiichi frowned and asked, his tone obviously impatient, "With the assistance of the Pacific Fleet, launch a naval charge to destroy the Soviet fleet together? Even if you agree , I will not agree, and the entire Japanese society is even less likely to agree.”

"But we can use this incident to blow the whistle on the United States and ask them to relax the restrictions of the security treaty." Nakatani Yuan has been thinking about the Americans for a long time, "especially regarding the issue of civilian and military unification of the Self-Defense Forces. , if the top management are just incompetent clerical officials, it is impossible to have a far-sighted strategy..."

"That's enough, Gen Nakatani, please get out of here immediately." Miyazawa Kiichi, who couldn't bear it anymore, finally broke out, "From today on, I won't allow you to mention any more so-called plans to enhance the strength of the Self-Defense Forces, and I don't want to hear from you. Whispering in my ear, I guess it’s the Prime Minister of Japan. You are just the director of the Self-Defense Agency. If I don’t see your resignation tomorrow, get out of the government building and get better and better.”

This was the first time Miyazawa Kiichi got angry, and he shocked the unreasonable Nakatani Gen. He looked straight into Nakatani Gen's eyes and said word for word, "I will tell you when the press conference is held later. Claim to the outside world that this is your mistake and it is your responsibility alone and has nothing to do with the Japanese government.”

"You can't do this. I am a person who has contributed to the Japanese army. I am the director of the Self-Defense Agency who has dedicated myself to the country of Japan. For the sake of my merits, please give me a hand, Prime Minister." Nakatani Yuan said anxiously. Begging Miyazawa Kiichi, if he takes all the blame, then he will never have a chance to return to politics.

"You should tell the people these things yourself."

Miyazawa Kiichi turned around and put on a cold attitude, indicating that he never wanted to see this person again, and that he had more important things to do next, which was to conduct peace negotiations with the Soviet government. (To be continued.)
