Soviet Union 1991

Main text Chapter 884: Respond calmly

The silent figure was sunk deeply into the taupe leather sofa. Smoke rose repeatedly from his fingertips, filling the solid atmosphere of the office. The medal on the chest of the military uniform glows white under the dim yellow light. On the Internet is a frown, and a pair of sharp eagle eyes that can cut into people's hearts.

Yazov reported the battle situation on the Romanian front in detail to Yanayev, who was smoking. He felt that the general secretary's addiction to smoking was getting stronger and stronger recently. Perhaps the situation in Romania made him restless. The staff on duty in the office told them that they had seen the General Secretary working at his desk several times at three in the morning, with a small desk lamp illuminating the desk.

It seems that Yanayev is also worried about the increasingly severe international situation.

Azov couldn't help but frown.

His consciousness was brought back from his reverie. Yanayev coughed and said to Yazov in a tired but energetic tone, "What an interesting opponent. Comrade Krenz's move." The policy effect of diverting misfortunes to the east is surprisingly simple. To put it bluntly, now that everyone is focusing on us, they will not think about the previous mess of the German Democratic Ennahda Party. It just happened to secure a favorable external environment for itself to carry out political and economic reforms. This person is really good. It’s not simple…”

Yanayev stubbed out his cigarette butt in the ashtray on the table, which was already filled with discarded filters. Having not closed his eyes properly all day, he continued to read the battle reports submitted by Azov one by one despite the dark circles and bloodshot eyes.

Generally speaking, the situation in Romania has begun to favor the Soviet Union, and the victory has given them hope.

Except for Krentz, Yanayev was worried.

Fanning the flames on the Eastern European issue led to the conflict between the United States, the Soviet Union and Romania, but he just stayed out of it. This move was probably not expected by even himself and Mario. I am afraid that even the so-called NATO joint force's stagnant patrol in northern Romania was his work. In addition to repaying the Soviet Union's favor, he wanted to push the conflict and contradiction to the extreme. After learning that the Romanian rebels had Having occupied all of Bucharest, Mario is determined to destabilize the country and turn a radical democratic change into a proxy war.

Rationally speaking, it is easier for the pro-Soviet regime to maintain the stability of its power in Eastern Europe. From a perceptual point of view, eradicating the bureaucracy and realizing true democracy in the country is also the direction he has been working hard for. Otherwise, the Soviet Union would not have turned a blind eye to the massacre in the Reichstag, or even condoned it.

The atmosphere in the office was as silent and uncomfortable as ever, as if they had become accustomed to the general secretary's muttering.

Only Yanayev understood that he was not feeling well. It felt like he was being put on an oven. After Romania was cleared, the United Nations launched a series of blockade policies, including certain large-scale purchases between the Soviet Union and Western Europe. Plans were frozen, and the original oil, natural gas, and machinery transactions came to an end. As for South Korea and Japan, they were also forced to temporarily suspend some cooperation plans in the Far East, which made the Kremlin executives feel some constraints.

The Americans' circumlocution of the United Nations Security Council also made Yanayev feel that all this was not as simple as he imagined. They even want to incite the entire European countries to oppose their actions in Romania and will not recognize the legitimacy of the new regime.

The situation became increasingly chaotic. As the plan continued to be implemented, he also felt more and more resistance from the United States. However, as long as he withstood the pressure, more than half of the countries in Eastern Europe would be included in the Soviet Union's sphere of influence. .

It was a great victory, and Yanayev would even become the leader of the Soviet revival.

"Giving up the operation now will only lead to total loss. The Romanian armored forces have already occupied Bucharest, and the Second Army of Buzeu supports the regime led by Voinea. This is our trump card. They no longer need to defend the position in the southeastern Danube Delta. , but began to defend against threats from the north. Although the Soviet Union could not send armored troops in, the air raids were already underway.

Yazov is relatively optimistic about the current situation. The invasion of Romania and the acquisition of the southern plains has exceeded his expectations. The political risks accompanied by huge rewards have opened up a big hole for the Soviet Union in Eastern Europe. As long as they continue to exert pressure, he It will be difficult to shrink back.

Yanayev's ambition is even greater than that of Biazov. He is not just demarcating and governing the Korean peninsula, but directly annexing it and subverting the puppet regime controlled by oligarchs in the name of justice.

So what he saw was the trend of NATO troops gradually moving southward, and this trend would be a heavy disaster for both him and Voinea.

"Most of the troops of the Fourth Army of Cluj have been absorbed by the NATO coalition forces, and they are regrouping for counterattack. The situation will continue to deteriorate rapidly. If Voinea thinks that occupying Bucharest is victory, then he will really He only has the ability to rule half a country."

This is the real beginning. NATO's counterattack is more brutal than any war.

Yanayev held his chin with his left hand and frowned. He was thinking about whether NATO had left any loopholes. It can be seen from President Mario's speech that he is desperate to carry out the conflict to the end.

Either a new unbreakable alliance will emerge from the war, or the world will be destroyed the moment the nuclear button is pressed. Neither Mario nor Yanayev is ready to become the sinner of the world. On the contrary, it was not them who benefited the most from this conflict, but Krenz who was hiding in the shadows.

It is impossible to retreat. Washington is now trying every possible means to regain the lost face, and it is impossible for the Soviet Union to abandon Bucharest. The situation can only remain in a stalemate until one side determines the winner. Yanayev began to feel helpless as he pressed closer and closer.

Yanayev took a deep breath and said slowly, "Then drag the Germans into the water. Since he wants to use the Romanian incident to divert attention, then we will give them no chance to do so. And this is also It can be a guarantee for the Soviet Union to tide over difficulties.”

Yazov frowned. The EU was more guarded against the Soviet Union than the United States. How could Krenz cooperate with them? He shook his head and rejected Yanayev's whimsical idea, "It's too messy. We don't have the chips in our hands that the Germans can use in exchange, so it is impossible for them to make an unequal deal. There are even It may be adding insult to injury. I thought the German Democratic Ennahda Party would become our ally, but now it seems that this ally’s ambition is no less than that of a superpower.”

Germany's failure in history is ultimately due to the fact that ambition cannot match its strength. Even the German Third Reich, which challenged the world alone, only ended in destruction. Krenz still has a long way to go before he can achieve the renaissance of Germany on his own.

Yanayev's loss of control over the situation was also within the scope of his own calculations. It was better for the Soviet Union to become an ambitious careerist than to become a puppet in the hands of the Americans. At least there is still the possibility of cooperation between the two parties on some things that do not involve vital interests.

"The Americans have this bargaining chip. If Mario wants to turn his head and deal with us wholeheartedly, he must eradicate the Germans who betrayed his teammates. But if the Soviet Union can ensure that Germany will not be implicated in this and maintain the current situation. We Just win.”

If the German Democratic Renaissance Party had not revealed its ambitions so quickly, it would not have been suppressed by the two superpowers. Since it dared to carry out some small actions behind the scenes, don't blame Yanayev for trying every means to make Germany have a hard time.

He has even prepared candidates for visiting Berlin, and Dobrynin will be his perfect choice to knock Krenz down.

"Krentz has been complacent for so long that he has even forgotten who was the one who supported him to power."

A terrible sense of oppression appeared on Yanayev's gloomy face.

"Now I will let him know the consequences of offending the Soviet Union." (To be continued.)
