Soviet Union 1991

The ice and snow have melted, and the emerald green branches and leaves in the Kremlin have sprouted.

The sun began to clear up in Moscow, where spring had arrived, and the political struggle surrounding Romania had almost come to an end.

I wonder what the White House’s expression should be when the Kremlin becomes the big winner again.

"Good news has almost come from Dobrynin's side. Dobrynin's negotiations are almost over. I didn't expect Krenz to be so cruel, abandoning half of the Luczh Army to feed Buzau The army, Mario should be going crazy now. Originally, he wanted to keep the two regimes side by side and try to minimize the losses. Unexpectedly, this move directly turned the situation into a turn for the worse. If the US military does not intervene, the situation will be very difficult. Twisted."

There is still a hint of cold wind in the abundant spring breeze, but it cannot extinguish the enthusiasm of the people. The situation in Romania thousands of miles away was being discussed in the streets and corners of Moscow. Although there was no entanglement with them, under the planning of the Propaganda Department, this battle was still connected with the great revival of the Soviet Union.

After seeing the shameless faces of the capitalists in Eastern Europe, everyone felt a trace of sympathy for the group of Slavic brothers who had abandoned their country, and a small number of people felt schadenfreude. The brutal civil war in Romania was unexpected.

The slogan "Abandon the barriers of the socialist system and help the working people exploited by the capitalists" also quickly spread in Bucharest. The Voinea regime's approach of promoting the restoration of democratic social welfare to the people has also been supported by the majority of the people. At least the root cause of this disaster is their desire for equality and narrowing the gap between the rich and the poor.

This role now falls to the Social Democrats, who have been advocating for a change in people's situation.

Yazov said, "That's what I say, but if the United States takes action on its own, I think the outcome is likely to change quickly. After the US military takes action, the situation will become one-sided."

He sighed. The current Voinea army seemed to be very prosperous, but it was destroyed all the way. In fact, it was because Germany's sudden rebellion disrupted the deployment of the entire army. As a result, a loophole was taken advantage of when he was in a hurry. As long as Lukezh does not fall, the U.S. Air Force's indiscriminate bombing will be able to push Voinea's regime back to the south.

If Voinea could eat the entire country before the US military bombed it, then Yanayev would not have to think hard about the next steps.

Yanayev analyzed the possible situation, "He ignored our interests and forced a war. I took it into consideration."

"But it is impossible for the Americans to fight a protracted war. If they think they can quickly quell the war by taking action, then let them do it. Now Saddam is still at large in a certain air raid shelter in Iraq, and the US military's security war It’s been going on for too long, almost four years? It’s still like that in Anbar and Erbil, with constant fighting between Sunnis and Shias.”

Yazov reminded, "But in Romania, there are not many intricate relationships."

"Although Romania does not have so many religious factions, there are also many conflicts between ethnic groups. If the US military really defeats the Bucharest regime, do you think they will still have the strength to maintain long-term security?"

Yanayev despised the Americans for their simple and naive ideas.

"Just like our war in Afghanistan, we were almost locked in that quagmire by the hands of Western countries. At that time, who could have imagined that a group of ignorant and crazy believers, Brezhnev or Gorbachev, could defeat the strongest A big army?”

Yanayev cannot guarantee that U.S. imperialism will be drowned in the ocean of people's war, but the only thing that is certain is that even if Voinea's regime collapses, the Romanian people will have everything in their hands by then. A Kalashnikov rifle.

The strategies were linked one by one, and Yanayev laid traps for every step of the U.S. Army. Including various BUK and other SAM anti-aircraft missiles, anti-tank missiles and T72B3 tanks with lead series shells previously sold by arms, this is an arms cemetery prepared for NATO troops. As long as Voinea's army operates normally, the air force that steps here will face a terrible nightmare.

The tea in front of him was a little cold. When Azov's fingers touched the cup, he felt that his hands were as cold as porcelain.

The nerves in his spine sent him danger signals.

The source of the signal was the smiling Comrade General Secretary opposite.

Political struggle and international public opinion have become one with him. Apart from the resignation of the US president, the only thing he cares about is the country that has been rescued from near death.

Recalling that from the beginning of the war to the present, everything General Secretary Yanayev did was causing the death of the other party. I can’t believe how long he has been preparing for this plan, but what is certain is that after this incident in Romania, no one dares to point fingers at the Moscow regime.

"By the way, there's one more thing. I hope the Secretary of Defense can figure it out."

"Maybe the Romanian Air Force's fighter jets shot down recently have more chances. Although everyone knows what's going on, I still hope to use the fighter jets of the puppet regime to publicize it when announcing it to the outside world. After all, we still have to leave a step back for the Americans. If we do things too much, Romania may not look good in the end. I don’t want the United States and the Soviet Union to end up fighting each other.”

He spoke calmly, but the content behind his words was more terrifying than the weight of the Ural Mountains.

Yazov couldn't help but sweat a little because he had to be careful about this kind of thing.

He patted Yazov on the shoulder, his narrowed eyes showed complicated emotions, and he answered word by word, "Do you understand?"

"I understand, General Secretary Yanayev."

It wasn't until the other party moved his hands away from him that Yazov breathed a sigh of relief. My former gentle colleagues turned into this terrifying appearance after taking advantage of the coup.

Yanayev smiled like a genial British gentleman. At the same time, he is like those insidious nobles in the Tsarist Russia era, wearing a heavy political mask.

He has become familiar with political struggles, and he has never seen a national leader as calculating and precise as Yanayev.

Maozi was just a big-brained guy with strange thinking, and he might have had a wild imagination, but in the face of the struggle for power, the rude and rude Khrushchev could tell what kind of people the top leaders of the Soviet Communist Party were like.

His sophistication made up for the loopholes and shortcomings caused by the country's simple and crude thinking.

Now just wait for Mario to get hot-headed and make all kinds of mistakes. Anyway, every step he takes after that is calculating the opponent's next step. Pressing harder and harder.

Natural disasters are linked to each other.

At this time, a call came from the White House, preparing to point all contradictions at Krenz.

After sending away the threatening Dobrynin, before taking a break, the United States called the Prime Minister's Office. Originally, such official matters should not be discussed in private, but the furious Mario was very concerned about the current situation. Germany's attitude is the last straw for the United States to stabilize its posture in Eastern Europe. If they fail to do so, the hope of containing the rise of Romania's pro-Soviet policy will be completely lost.

He tried to make the stakes clear to Krenz. Even if the previous economic blockade was a circumstantial warning to him, there was no need to bring the situation to such a stalemate.

But Krenz refused to reconcile and rebuffed the American temptation very firmly.

"I have already said on this issue that the possibility of our reconciliation is zero. The German NATO troops in Romania are no match for the Romanian rebels. We choose to withdraw. This is the answer given by Berlin, which will be officially announced later. The same news, so do you think there is anything else we need to talk about?”

Krenz answered the other party arrogantly, and refused to accept the other party's suggestions forcefully and without reservation. The Americans have reached this point, and there is no need for them to continue to defend the other side.

"If Germany retreats, the defense line we established will completely collapse, and Germany will also face major pressure, such as the expansion of the Soviet Union. Their determination to try to take back Eastern Europe will not end. And Germany has regarded the Soviet Union as a The biggest obstacle to Europe’s stability and leadership are you willing to let the Soviet Union take back Romania?”

Krenz was silent for a moment and said slowly, "This is Europe's internal matter, and the United States is not qualified to interfere in our affairs."

"And the German Democratic Ennahda Party has been committed to a peaceful and stable European environment from the beginning, not a war-torn Europe. Whether it is concessions now or cooperation in the future, it is all for this goal."

"Don't forget, I am also the leader of the German Communist Party. I probably know the dirty inside stories clearly. Don't try to convince me with the Soviet threat theory. In my eyes, the United States and the Soviet Union are almost the same. It’s just that the class of service is different.”

"We will not give in. The German army must withdraw from Romanian soil. If you want to continue the war, I have no objection. Berlin originally did not want to be involved in the war. At this point, it can only comply with the demands of public opinion and choose to withdraw."

Krentz left Mario speechless. In fact, they had already said most of what they could say. Only Mario's despair and anger are left.

Krenz sneered, "Also, don't let me think it through. Germany has already thought it through very clearly. Let's leave those official answers to the press conference. Goodbye, President Mario."

Krenz hung up the phone without hesitation. (To be continued.) 8
