Soviet Union 1991

Text Chapter 236: The replica of the scalpel incident

(First update, four updates today)

The Enterprise aircraft carrier battle group deployed in the Middle East began to leave the port and prepare for action. The US Navy Command in Bahrain has never been as busy as it is today. Everyone has entered a state of combat readiness. Those who are not aware of it think it is an exercise, but those who are aware of it can't laugh, because they know that they will face the Soviet aircraft carrier fleet in the Middle East next.

Moreover, the naval forces that went to support were a little terrified after seeing the shocking scratches on the Ticonderoga cruiser. A two-meter-long cut was torn on the white hull, like a piece of white paper that was scratched hard with a pencil.

If the collision was more intense at that time, those crew members might have been fed to sharks in the Arabian Sea. It is said that some sailors' legs were still shaking when they got off the ship. At the moment when the opponent's red Ukraine was about to hit the ship, everyone thought they were dead.

"You must be careful. Those Soviets are crazy. Don't try to confront them head-on. You are no match for the Soviets. They don't want to go back. If they rush towards you, run away." The American sailors who returned from the international waters said this to the next group of people. This is the most practical advice they can give.

A fleet of crazy red lunatics is waiting for all Americans. They are ready to try. Pave another layer of American corpses for their own promotion path. Compared with the brainless long live charge of the Japanese army, the collision tactics of the Soviet army are more heroic and resolute to maintain the dignity of a country.

The hearts of those who set out from the port were shrouded in a haze. Thinking of the Soviet fleet waiting for them on the high seas, they were uneasy. It seems that this is the most dangerous attack voyage that the American fleet has encountered in so many years. In the Gulf War in 1991, the USS Enterprise was like an invincible giant monster that made everyone in the Middle East see the horror of the United States. Even when the US Navy faced the Soviet naval forces in 1962, it did not have such worries as now.

And now, the powerful US Navy is helpless in front of the Soviet fleet, which is a big joke.

The Enterprise left the port and sailed towards the Strait of Hormuz. The final destination of the Chinese freighter is there, so the Americans are not afraid of not encountering Chinese freighters in the waters near the strait. Looking around, the Enterprise's dispatch is like towing a series of ships to act at the same time, and it is worthy of being the most combat-capable naval country in the world today.

The calm sea is full of densely packed ships. They are like a school of swordfish, like a sharp sword inserted into the deepest part of the ocean, and all challengers will be cut into pieces by the sharp blade wherever they pass.

What the US Enterprise may not have expected is that the Soviet Kuznetsov aircraft carrier is also heading towards the Strait of Hormuz, and their fleet is walking on the side of the Chinese Galaxy. In order to be alert to the sneak attack of the US fleet at any time.

In front of the Soviet Kuznetsov-class aircraft carrier, the Galaxy was like a rabbit encountering a giant elephant, with a black shadow covering most of the ship.

"Why did the Soviet fleet choose to protect us? Is it really just to prevent us from being attacked by American ships?" First mate Mi Junxi asked Captain Zhang Rude in confusion, "Why do we deserve such protection from them? And how did you contact this fleet, Captain?"

"Don't ask me, I don't know anything." Captain Zhang Rude replied. It was not that he kept his mouth shut. Zhang Rude didn't know why there was a Soviet aircraft carrier fleet to escort him, except for the note personally delivered by the military district. Of course, the secret deal made by the top leaders of the two governments was not something that a small person like him could know.

At this time, everything that happened in the Arabian Sea was still a secret. The Saudi side received a notice from the United States. Strictly block all news about the Galaxy. It was not until the United States deterred or defeated the Soviet fleet in the Arabian Sea that Saudi Arabia's Al Jazeera TV could broadcast the modified report.

Even the Saudi warships that abandoned their allies and fled were secretly suppressed by the government. There was no publicity for the time being. The United States and its allies knew that if such an incident broke out at this time, it would only make the situation in the Arabian Sea worse.

At this time, the sky over the Arabian Sea was blue and bright. The warm sea water and sunshine turned it into the deep blue sea with the most comfortable climate. The sea surface was calm and flat like a piece of blue steel plate. But at this time, there was an unfathomable conspiracy cloud gathering over this sea area. Various forces competed again, trying to turn the calm sea into the Balkans in the Middle East. Another version of the Cuban Sea crisis.

However, it is obvious that the Soviet side wanted to develop things in a more extreme direction. When their radar detected the US reconnaissance aircraft, the Su-33 carrier-based aircraft took off urgently to intercept. The first round of confrontation has begun before the two largest aircraft carrier groups in the world have met.

The P8 anti-submarine reconnaissance aircraft, known as the Poseidon of the US military, is after all, the Soviet fleet. The US military has the right to do anything over the high seas, even if it is to monitor the movements of the Soviet aircraft carriers, and it is impossible to launch a direct attack. If it was shot down without provocation, the United States would regard it as an act of war and launch an all-out attack on the Soviet fleet.

Anti-submarine aircraft shaped like Boeing 737 are crossing the blue sea. Gradually approaching the red steel waves slowly advancing under the clouds. Suddenly, the radar of the anti-submarine aircraft captured a black shadow on the screen gradually approaching their reconnaissance aircraft. They quickly entered the state of emergency.

Through the narrow glass window, they finally saw the Soviet Su-33 carrier-based aircraft like a ghost hovering around them. The pilot of the Su-33 warned the American reconnaissance aircraft that this was the Soviet Pacific Fleet and asked the American reconnaissance aircraft to quickly evacuate the airspace.

During the approach, the Su-33 fighter opened the speed brake on the back of the aircraft to slow down and closely monitored the American P8 reconnaissance aircraft. The aircraft gun of the fighter aimed at the US reconnaissance aircraft, which was imposing. From the American pilot's perspective through the window, the fighters surrounding him were like a golden eagle with its wings spread, and the speed brake on the back of the aircraft was like a suddenly raised neck feather, fierce and angry. In contrast, their own P8 anti-submarine aircraft was like an ugly and clumsy duck. Some were staring at the invading enemy at a loss.

Seeing that the other side did not take any action, the Soviet fighter plane got closer and closer, and he slowly squeezed the US P8 reconnaissance plane. At the closest point, the two planes were only about 3 meters apart, almost wingtip to wingtip, so that only part of it could be seen from the window. The air-to-air missiles it carried were close at hand, and the sharp leading edge of the wing shone coldly in the sun. The Soviet pilot looked at the crew on the anti-submarine aircraft with a stern face. The US crew felt the atmosphere was depressing and vaguely worried that something bad would happen.

However, the Su-33 did not take action for a long time. The pilot of the US reconnaissance plane thought that the other side was just a verbal warning, forcing him to leave this sea area and adopt this risky method, so the P8 anti-submarine reconnaissance plane directly ignored the pilot's warning and let the plane continue to fly forward to collect intelligence on Soviet warships.

Seeing that the other side ignored his warning, the pilot of the Su-33 was obviously a little angry. The arrogant attitude of the Americans irritated the young man, and he said to the crew of the anti-submarine aircraft in Russian English, "Hey, Americans, have you heard about the Barents Sea surgical knife incident?"

The American did not want to pay attention to the provocation of the Su-33 pilot, but what he said made the American pilot feel a little uneasy. The Barents Sea was also a duel between reconnaissance aircraft and Soviet fighters, which was exactly the same as the scene in front of him.

The Su-33 pilot's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he suddenly said something that frightened the US military, "The Su-27 pilot who performed the surgical knife at that time was my flight instructor." (To be continued.)
