Soviet Union 1991

Second update

Different from the war-torn environment in Georgia, the White House is still a calm night with bright lights. The bedroom was dark, and President Mario had already fallen asleep, but the rapid ringing of the phone brought him back to reality from his dream.

The dark bedroom was illuminated by a small lamp beside the bed.

President Mario drowsily picked up the microphone and said hello. The content of the phone call suddenly woke him up. He lifted the quilt, held the phone and whispered, "What did you say? Are you sure? Okay, I will get up immediately and go to the Pentagon."

After saying that, he stood up and changed his clothes. His wife, who was sleeping on the side, also woke up and asked in a low voice what happened?

President Mario said anxiously while wearing his tie, "There's been an accident in Georgia, and it's a very serious accident. I have to go to the Pentagon now."

After saying that, he kissed his sleepy wife gently, rubbed her hair, and said softly, "You go to sleep first, my dear, I will be back soon."

By the time he arrived at the Pentagon, the Secretary of Defense, CIA Director, and National Counsel were already waiting for him. The director of the CIA placed the latest intelligence in front of the president, looking a little nervous, "The Soviet Tu-95 strategic bomber formation carried tactical nuclear weapons and tried to approach Turkish airspace three hours ago, and was intercepted by 16 fighter jets that were scrambled into the air. Now Turkey Relations with the Soviet Union have entered a very tense state. A war may break out at any time."

Director Tenet added with some fear, "And a nuclear war is very likely to break out."

When they heard about nuclear war, Defense Secretary Perry and National Advisor Berger's faces became very ugly. Under such circumstances, no one would doubt what Director Tenet said. The Kremlin madmen have regarded Georgia as theirs. of forbidden love. Once anyone intervenes, they will fight back at all costs.

President Mario pondered for a moment and asked in a low voice, "Is it because the US fleet's intervention in the Black Sea stimulated the Soviet Union's nerves?"

No one can answer Mario's question. God knows what the political madmen in the Kremlin think. Going to war at the slightest disagreement seems to have become an important symbol of Moscow politics. When dealing with the powerful and arrogant Soviet people, everyone seems cautious and has lingering fears.

"Or are the Soviets hoping to use this risky approach to force the United States to evacuate the fleet from the Black Sea?" President Mario slowly thought along the train of thought, "We can tell from the previous Soviet combat methods that the other side Change of thinking. After being unable to compete with the United States for world hegemony, the Soviet military began to shift toward informationization. In other words, they were no longer building a "doomsday army" but an information-based army that could rival the United States. It would be unwise to want to break out a nuclear war at this time."

"But Mr. President, this is just a guess. None of us can guarantee whether the Soviet Union will engage in a nuclear war." Originally, Secretary Perry wanted to say that no one could guarantee that he would put his hand on the nuclear weapon button. What kind of things a madman would do. But he still swallowed these words.

National Security Advisor Berger objected to Secretary Perry's words, "But I think the possibility of a nuclear war breaking out is too low. The Soviet Union is now focusing on economic construction. A war breaking out at this time would not benefit anyone, right?"

Perry glanced at Berger and said sarcastically, "Do you know what the people in the Kremlin are thinking? Are you the roundworm in their stomachs?"

Seeing that the smell of gunpowder on the conference table was getting stronger and stronger, President Mario had no choice but to say quiet loudly. The originally noisy conference room suddenly fell silent. President Mario stared sharply at his colleagues who were deeply "Soviet-phobic" and tried to cheer them up, "We are not trying to provoke a nuclear war with the Soviet Union, nor are we trying to tell them that we are afraid of nuclear war. , we need to communicate with the Soviet Union and everyone sit down to solve the problem.”

"The situation in Georgia is now very good for the Soviet Union. Tbilisi is about to be surrounded by the Soviet army, so I think the chance of a nuclear war with Turkey is very small. Now someone needs to go to the Kremlin, and Their general secretary negotiates.”

"How to negotiate?" consultant Berger said. He had already expected that this mess would fall on him. The hard-line conservative Secretary of State Madeleine was not suitable to appear in Moscow as a negotiator. Maybe even President Mario was worried that she would mess everything up. After all, this woman But he was the one who directly quarreled with the Soviet Foreign Minister on diplomatic occasions.

"Convey the intention of the United States to Moscow. The U.S. fleet entering the Black Sea does not mean to declare war on the Soviet Union. We just want to protect the security of the Turkish alliance. As for Moscow's misunderstanding between us and the Soviet Union, we also hope that Advisor Berger can properly report it to the Soviet Union." Moscow explains clearly.”

After President Mario finished speaking, the people below fell silent. It is obvious that the President of the United States also has lingering fears about the crazy behavior of the Soviet Union. He was repeatedly threatened by the Soviet Union with nuclear weapons during his term. What the President did was quite helpless.

Since the 1950s, Soviet fear has slowly spread to the top political leaders of the United States. Even the current military is trying every means to increase funding and using various means to put pressure on Congress. Including American newspapers, there were sensational words such as "The invincible Soviet army, the beginning of the end of the United States," and other sensational words.

If possible, he really wanted to learn from Yanayev and conduct a major purge in the army, sending all those guys who were asking for funds in various ways to meet the founding father Washington.

"There is another important matter to report to President Mario."

Director Tenet said, "We received a call from Georgia, from Gerbachev. It seems that the situation in Tbilisi is very serious now. This old fox has to consider his political retreat."

After hearing Gerbachev's name, President Mario's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "What does this mean?"

"He hopes to obtain political asylum in the United States before the Tbilisi army is defeated." Tenet said, "Escape from Georgia before the Soviet Union completes the siege of Tbilisi."

"So can we talk directly to Gerbachev now?" President Mario asked.

"Of course, he left us a safe communication channel, and now the Pentagon can get in touch with the Tbilisi front."

"Connect immediately." President Mario said hurriedly. (To be continued.)
