Soviet Union 1991

Second update

"Whether it is Georgia or Gorbachev, neither is the most critical issue now. The most critical question now is, will the Soviet Union take advantage of the opportunity of surrendering the Georgian rebels to directly send troops south to capture Turkey?" said the Minister of Defense. Looking at the people around him with expressions of disbelief, he expressed his opinion.

"Think about it, the Soviet Union is now trying its best to create a posture of fighting anyone who dares to intervene in the Caucasus. It even mobilizes the Black Sea Fleet to block the west coast of the South Caucasus, and does not hesitate to use strategic nuclear submarines to threaten neighboring countries. It's just that all of this Is it really just what he is doing to protect his status? I don’t think so.”

Minister Perry's words were like a heavy hammer, hitting Mario's heart hard.

"Let's make a bolder assumption. What if all this is just a conspiracy? What about the so-called Gorbachev plan just to allow Yanayev to find an excuse to attack Turkey? After all, Turkey is assisting us at our behest. Having defeated the Georgian army, it would be easy for Yanayev to find an excuse to start a war. Don’t forget the Hungarian incident in October and the invasion of Prague. These were things that the CIA thought would never happen. "

Minister Perry continued to be alarmist, "I even suspect that Yanayev did not perform the operation at all, but was hiding behind the scenes to manipulate everything. Turkey will be the biggest victim of this civil war."

While listening to Minister Perry's words, Mario analyzed the possibility of this situation exploding. He increasingly felt that in order to defraud funds from Congress, the US military continued to make alarmist remarks in newspapers and used public voice to put pressure on the US government. Although this kind of trick is common, if even the Ministry of Defense relies on this method, then Mario will feel dangerous. The current economic problems in the United States are not just the slightest, and even the original large aircraft carrier construction plan has been shelved.

"So I suggest that the U.S. naval fleet be sailed into the Black Sea to ensure the safety of our allies. After all, if Turkey is lost, our strategic deployment in the Black Sea will be completely disrupted."

"No, this method is too risky." CIA Director Tenet rejected Perry's idea, "Aren't you intensifying the conflict? Don't forget that the intelligence obtained by the CIA is that the top leader in Moscow is responsible for commanding this battle. People have their hands on the nuclear button!”

"So what?" Perry said disdainfully, "We only deployed defenses in Turkish waters and did not engage in any conflict with the Soviet army. No matter how stupid the Moscow leader is, he will not choose to press the button at this time. Yes. No one benefits."

"I agree with sending the fleet into the Black Sea, but we cannot send an aircraft carrier battle group there." President Mario made a prudent decision. "The purpose of sending destroyers and frigates into the Black Sea is to show the Soviet Union's attitude to the Soviet Union. If you use the Caucasus to Come attack Turkey, the United States will be the first to stand up.”

President Mario told Secretary Perry, "Remember that the mission of the U.S. fleet is to control the situation within an acceptable range, not to directly provoke a war with the Soviet Union."

At the U.S. press conference that night, the White House spokesperson announced that in order to maintain peace and stability in the Black Sea region and the Caucasus, the United States will send a fleet from the Turkish Strait into the Black Sea region to maintain peace and development. At the same time, it hopes that all parties to the conflict can Solve the problem at the negotiating table instead of continuing this war.

In the intensive care unit, Yanayev watched Bowles speak righteously in front of the camera. An inexplicable smile appeared on his pale face. He said to Vladimir next to him, "Did you see that? Now Americans also Ready to join in.”

"But in this way, the situation in the Caucasus becomes unclear." Vladimir said with a frown. The United States is not Türkiye. Since the other party has taken bold actions, its own nuclear threat may not be successful.

Yanayev shook his head, thinking that Vladimir still had some way to go. He pointed at the White House chief of staff on the TV news and said, "It's not actually that the United States wants to intervene in our civil war, but that they are afraid. . When people are afraid, they will think of many things. For example, they will think that in addition to solving the Georgia problem, we will also attack Turkey. After all, Turkey has aided Georgia, and they think the Soviet Union will make a big fuss about this issue. "

"Action against Türkiye?" Vladimir didn't quite understand Yanayev's statement.

Yanayev imitated the tone of the White House chief of staff and said, "I think the Kremlin leaders' brain circuits cannot be understood normally. They are a group of paranoid war lunatics."

Yanayev's funny expression made Vladimir laugh. He smiled and explained the movements of the Americans to Vladimir, "When a country suffers from paranoia of persecution, they will worry about everything, such as whether the Soviet Union's attack on Georgia is really just to quell domestic rebellion. They will think This incident is nothing more than a conspiracy planned by Moscow, including releasing Gorbachev from the secret prison in the Ural Mountains in order to take the opportunity to go south and annex the important territory of Turkey.”

"This... is really a very conspiracy theory idea." Vladimir didn't know what to say about the American association.

"I didn't expect that there are such idiots among the top Americans." Yanayev sighed, "If I really want to capture Turkey, will I specifically condone the rebellion led by 15,000 people led by Gorbachev? Of course the Americans They would say this is a way to lure the snake out of its hole, but they don’t think about the cost of luring the snake out of its hole. Only Americans will believe such nonsense if they lose two squadrons and plunge into war in South Ossetia.”

Yanayev leaned his back on the pillow and said to Vladimir, "We just need to deal with the Georgian affairs. As for Turkey, it is not something we can get involved in so far, but as long as we stick to our policy, we will be able to do it in the next few decades." Within the year, the contrast between Turkey and the Soviet Union will completely change. As for the US fleet wandering on the Black Sea, it is not enough to fill the gap in the Black Sea Fleet. If possible, we can drive Kirov-class and Glory-class warships in front of them to show off their strength. ”

Yanayev likes this feeling of being unhappy with me but unable to kill me.

He looked at the ceiling and muttered to himself somewhat boredly, "I can tell you that there is no competent opponent. This world is really lonely." (To be continued.) 8
