Soviet Union 1991

Second update on Amway WeChat ID: Yanayev has started serializing the first story

U.S. Navy personnel were busy extinguishing the flames burning on the deck of the USS Eisenhower. Due to the impact, the deck was severely damaged. The USS Eisenhower had to return to the dock for repairs. They could no longer continue this mission.

The burning IL-38 began to break from the middle. The rear section of the aircraft was silent in the bottomless Pacific Ocean. The front section hit the deck and caught fire. The fierce flames enveloped the wreckage of the aircraft. , like the anger of the Soviet Union, burning in front of the American fleet.

Although the IL-38 adopted such an extreme method in an attempt to severely damage the USS Eisenhower, except for damaging the deck of the USS Eisenhower, it did not sink it in the Western Pacific.

The Eisenhower can no longer continue to perform the mission of the joint military exercise. The aircraft carrier battle group has to cover the injured ship to withdraw from this extremely risky military exercise. The remaining four aircraft carriers are continuing to approach the Kuril Islands and arrive at the designated Conduct joint military exercises in sea areas.

The Soviet Navy Headquarters has just received feedback from the Alikheevka Air Force Base, explaining to them that a fleet composed of the United States and its allies is approaching their doorstep. The Soviet Air Force has a Hawthorn anti-submarine aircraft because it intends to attack The command further fed back the intelligence of the U.S. fleet, and approached the U.S. aircraft carrier battle group to collect intelligence, but unfortunately it crashed. The driver's life or death is uncertain.

After naval commander Smiryev heard the news, the cup he originally held in his hand fell directly to the ground. He turned his head stiffly, with an incredible look in his eyes, and said to the naval captain who reported the situation, "You said Is it true that the U.S. Navy is provoking our Air Force in the Western Pacific?”

"Yes, our anti-submarine aircraft has been confirmed to be an American aircraft carrier, and the anti-submarine aircraft that detected the American aircraft carrier unfortunately crashed." The naval captain who reported the situation buried his head very low, for fear of seeing Smiryev when he raised his head. A look as furious as thunder. Everyone knows that the naval commander has a bad temper, especially when it comes to dealing with Americans.

"Four American Nimitz-class aircraft carriers appeared within our waters, and one of our anti-submarine aircraft was shot down by them?" Smiryev answered word for word.

"We don't know whether the specific situation is a shootdown. The re-dispatched early warning aircraft and reconnaissance aircraft have not yet reported back. But what is certain is that through our ocean detection system, one of the aircraft carrier battle groups has begun to return. That is, It is said that the US military currently has only five aircraft carriers in the Western Pacific.”

The colonel finally added in a low voice, "One of them is our Kiev-class aircraft carrier and the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force's Kongo-class destroyer."

Heard the appearance of a Kiev-class aircraft carrier. Smiryev immediately understood which other countries were participating in this joint military exercise. The United States was preparing to unite with its allies in Asia to give the Soviet Navy a showdown. Could it be that the appearance of the Ulyanovsk ship has made them panic?

"How long has it been since this happened?" Smiryev tried his best to control his temper and try to calm down. At this time, he wanted to order the Soviet aircraft carrier to attack. Even if they don't have an advantage in terms of numbers, they must at least win back in terms of momentum. The Soviet Navy is not as powerful as the United States, but it has always been a loser. You have four Nimitz-class ships and one Kiev-class ship. We also have one Varyag and one Ulyanovsk.

"It's been happening for half an hour." The other party returned. Seeing that Smilyev did not appear as angry as he imagined, he quickly raised his head and glanced at his immediate superior. But when he looked up, he regretted it.

It was a cold and stern face that was more terrifying than the ice of Siberia. The pale face seemed to have only an expression of indifference. Even those eyes were only possessed by those who crawled out of the pile of dead bodies on the battlefield. It is revenge and revenge that strengthens the belief. Until the enemy in front of him was wiped out.

Smiryev picked up the clothes on the hanger and prepared to go out. While putting on his coat, he gave him an order and said, "Order our Pacific Fleet and the radar military monitoring station in the Far East to monitor these bastards for me." Every move should be reported to the headquarters every ten minutes if they slip away."

He paused for the last sentence before continuing, "From the Commander-in-Chief of the Pacific Fleet to the captain of every ship, everyone is waiting to go to court-martial!"

Smiryev dialed the number of the Moscow Defense Minister through a secret hotline. This emergency call from Leningrad was set up in a secret dark room in the naval headquarters building. At this time, Smiryev was sitting alone in front of the table, quietly waiting for the other party to answer the phone.

"Hello, is this Comrade Smiryev?" Defense Minister Yazov asked, his voice a little gloomy, because when he, who was also far away in Moscow, answered the call, it meant that something ominous had happened.

"It's me. Minister Azov, I have a very urgent situation to report to you. The U.S. combined fleet is now appearing in the Western Pacific and heading towards the Kurile Islands. We have an anti-submarine aircraft that may be intercepted by the opponent during the confrontation. The ship-to-air short-range missile was destroyed.”

Smilyev paused here, waiting for further instructions from Yazov. As long as the other party said to fight back immediately, the Pacific Fleet would go out without hesitation and charge at an enemy that was twice or twice as powerful as itself, using a saturation attack method to make the American fleet come over with a show of force and then be carried back.

But after the words ended, there was an awkward silence. The other party did not seem to want to answer Smilyev's question. He could only hear the rapid and uneasy breathing from the other end through the microphone. It was not until a long time later that he heard Yazov's disappointing answer.

"Continue to send reconnaissance aircraft to investigate and report the situation to Moscow. All warships of the Pacific Fleet are in a state of readiness and waiting for orders. Without orders from Moscow, no action is allowed."

"Since it has entered a state of readiness, why not fight back against them. We lost an anti-submarine aircraft in front of them!" Smilyev argued with reason, trying to persuade Yazov to go out now and annihilate the fleet on the sea at his doorstep.

"Do you think I won't feel heartbroken? Comrade Smiryev. I feel as heartbroken as you do. We lost our comrades and heroes of the Republic. But you are a soldier, and a soldier's duty is to obey orders!" Defense Minister Yazov angrily rebuked. He was already angry enough. Like Smiryev, he had never felt such humiliation.

But all retaliations will not be implemented until Moscow finalizes the formal plan.

After hanging up the phone, Yazov hurried to Yanaev's presidential office. He knocked on the closed door with a hurried knock, and then closed it tightly. Yazov took a deep breath and told Yanaev what happened in the simplest language.

"The combined fleet of the United States and its allies appeared in the Western Pacific with unclear intentions, and one of our anti-submarine aircraft may be shot down by them. Now the entire Pacific Fleet is waiting for an order from Moscow."

Yanayev put down the pen in his hand, looked up at Yazov, and asked, "So how many aircraft carriers did the United States dispatch this time? Is it enough to provoke a war?"

"The anti-submarine aircraft personnel reported that there were five aircraft carriers. Even if the strength of the four Soviet naval fleets was added together, it would not be enough to match the opponent's combined fleet."

"Counterattack." Yanaev's answer was concise and clear.

"But the number of American fleets is far greater than ours..." Yazov was anxious, fearing that Yanayev would make a wrong decision under irrational circumstances.

"If we don't fight back, are we waiting for the Americans to laugh at the Soviet Navy's weakness and incompetence? Laugh at the Soviet Navy for not being able to protect its own anti-submarine aircraft? Laugh at the so-called powerful Soviet army, which is just a fleet folded out of paper?"

"We will retaliate against the Americans, and the retaliation will definitely not be a small fight like losing a plane."

"It's to make the world feel fear."

Yanaev gently put down the pen in his hand and said to Yazov. (To be continued.)
