Soviet Union 1991

(The author was traveling in Xiamen and did not bring the manuscripts with him. All chapters were re-typed on the phone. Please forgive me for not updating. This book has officially entered the plot of the red Europe)

The social unrest caused by the continuous conflict in Libya is far more serious than those optimistic European leaders expected. The establishment of a no-fly zone and the call for a ceasefire not only did not alleviate the conflict, but also kicked off the war under the Soviet Union's hint and provocation.

Although the Soviet Union ostensibly agreed to Gaddafi's request for reinforcements, it actually hesitated to take action because the Soviet Union had no air force base in Libya. Gaddafi was helpless about this. He even began to regret why he did not agree to Yanayev's request to set up an advisory group in Libya. Assad took advantage of the iron curtain shelter provided by the Soviet advisory group and avoided the tragedy like Iraq for a certain period of time.

Gaddafi is now at the end of his rope. Although he did not deploy large-scale ground forces like Iraq, the air strikes that followed one after another made Tripoli completely unable to breathe. Saddam's backward version of the SAM air defense missile had no combat effectiveness against the French Mirage and the American 16. The Soviet Union, which always liked to use monkey versions to trick people, naturally would not give Gaddafi the treatment of the original version, not to mention that the only original version was sold as surplus materials in the last major disarmament.

Except for the dying Gaddafi faction, almost everyone believed that the Libyan government was already the last rays of the sun and had no chance to struggle for a few days.

At the beginning of the war, the United States and the Soviet Union parked their respective cruise ships at the port of Tripoli in Libya under the banner of humanitarian rescue.

The scene of the evacuation was heavily guarded, and the soldiers with rifles stared vigilantly at the crowded and frightened crowd. These were all personnel of the Soviet Embassy in Libya, and they had priority in the evacuation operation.

The evacuation work lasted from day to night. There were endless crowds of people, and all kinds of confidential documents that needed to be taken back home. They even burned things on the spot to prevent them from falling into the hands of the opposition or government forces. Many of them were shameful black deals with the Transitional Committee or Gaddafi.

During this period, there were several attempts by refugees or embassy personnel of other countries to attack the evacuation ship, but they were all dispersed by the soldiers of the Ministry of Internal Affairs who were protecting the evacuation. Facing those angry and desperate refugees, the Soviet soldiers did not have the good temper to persuade others. They directly pulled the bolt and aimed at the refugees who rushed to the front.

"This is a Soviet evacuation ship. No foreigners or Libyan refugees are allowed to approach. Otherwise, they will be regarded as terrorists and shot on the spot!"

Although the refugees who only understood Arabic did not know what the fierce-looking soldiers in front of them were muttering, they believed that the loaded rifles in the other's hands were not expressing friendly messages. The crowd that rushed forward suddenly quieted down. Facing the Soviet soldiers whose number was only a few tens of theirs, no one dared to step forward. They had reason to believe that these people were ready to play for real.

In this way, the confrontation between the Ministry of Internal Affairs soldiers in gray uniforms and thousands of people was only a few dozen centimeters away, and the Soviet ships that could be seen far behind the soldiers were God's forbidden zone that they could not enter.

The question of rushing forward or retreating was placed in front of the refugees. This was a question of life and death.

"One. All listen to the order, raise your guns! Aim!"

As soon as the captain finished this sentence, all the soldiers raised their rifles. Aiming at the crowd who were still trying to move. The scene was very quiet, with only the wind blowing their clothes and the slowly hooked trigger. As long as they applied a few pounds of pressure, the people rushing in the front would be bloody. Although the refugees were crazy and desperate to get on the boat leaving Libya, they didn't want to die in the hands of these soldiers.

Although I don't know what the soldiers are saying, there will definitely be no good things next.

"Two, fire a warning shot into the air!"

After the guarding soldier raised his gun, he fired a few shots into the air. It means that this is the last warning. The deafening gunshots finally stopped the commotion of the crowd. From the moment they opened fire, they believed that these people would never show mercy just because the refugees had children or women in their hands. Their anger at the beginning gradually turned into fear. The fear of this group of killing machines was even more of a fear of the totalitarian country in their minds.

The refugees began to retreat. Seeing that the purpose of deterrence had been achieved, the soldiers continued to step forward, crossed the yellow line under their feet, and blocked the evacuated expatriates from the refugees.

"Behind us is a socialist country. People who believe in Islam are not allowed to enter, and non-Soviet citizens are not allowed to enter! Otherwise, they will be killed without mercy!"

The soldiers' tyranny and bravery stopped the crowd who were trying to fish in troubled waters, and also kept the group of people outside the yellow line. They gritted their teeth and watched the boat go away in front of them.

Such words that were equivalent to calling names and cursing people were not banned, but appeared openly on the fences set up, written in Russian, Arabic and English. This overbearing slogan shocked everyone, and they quietly erased the name of the Soviet Union from the country they had smuggled into and reached a consensus that they would rather kill the opposition than try to challenge the authority of the Soviet Union. It was truly a terrible country.

The Soviet Union's evacuation was faster and quieter than any other country. There was no rush to board the ship, no refugees trying to climb the side of the ship, and the Soviet expatriates and embassy staff remained absolutely calm and in pure order in the face of war. This is something that no European country can do.

Order, the more urgent the situation, the more it can test human nature and conscience. If this escape is compared to a test, there is no doubt that the Soviet people gave it a full score?

Looking at the silence of the queue for boarding the ship without any words, and then looking at the people around them pushing, crowding, screaming and crying, the embassy staff of other countries fell into deep thought.

What kind of terrible country is this to cultivate such a calm and composed people?

Later, when the war correspondents interviewed the Soviet people, they asked this question. They were curious why in such an extreme situation, they still consciously stopped squeezing onto the fully loaded ship and chose to wait for the next ship that would come at an unknown time. This was simply a gamble with their lives.

"There is no special secret," one of the men interviewed replied, "because the Soviet Union is our motherland, and I believe I can entrust my life to the Soviet Union." (To be continued.)
