In fact, Admiral John Daniel's gloomy face has already explained everything. This Soviet Pacific Fleet, which has been following the Seventh Fleet, has indeed made Admiral John Daniel feel a huge threat. Otherwise, he would not be so angry. The two fleets facing each other at both ends of the strait have a clear understanding of each other's strength.

In terms of strength, the U.S. Navy can still fight the two Soviet Red Navy, but when it comes to the Seventh Fleet and the Soviet Pacific Fleet, this is not the case. The Pacific Fleet is the second largest fleet of the Soviet Union, if not the Northern Fleet, which is populated by nuclear submarines. In terms of surface power, the Pacific Fleet and the Northern Fleet are almost the same, while the U.S. Seventh Fleet is almost the weakest fleet of the U.S. Navy. Now, from the comparison of the surface ships of the two sides, the Soviet Pacific Fleet has an absolute advantage of three to one.

   A salvo of more than ninety Soviet guided missile destroyers can indeed send the Seventh Fleet under his command to the bottom of the sea. Admiral John Daniel also knows this in his heart. The Strait of Malacca limits the powerful combat capability of the US Navy.

However, Admiral John Daniel also understood that once the Soviet Pacific Fleet started, it would inevitably end in sinking. 22 bomber group, with the existence of these backfires, the Soviet Red Navy can exert its maximum combat capability. The current Soviet Pacific Fleet, like its own fleet, is not at its peak.

   For the Soviet naval aviation, which had a huge "backfire" bomber fleet, the biggest problem was not the lack of firepower, but how to track the US aircraft carrier formation over the vast ocean. Although "Backfire" is powerful, it must be targeted. Due to the instability of the ionosphere near the poles, the Soviet Union, located in high latitudes, could not effectively use sky-wave over-the-horizon radar. Soviet radar ocean reconnaissance satellites were notorious for carrying nuclear fuel.

   Providing the updated target data for the "Backfire" bomber is the Tu-95 long-range electronic intelligence aircraft. These large turboprop-driven aircraft carry a lot of fuel and have good fuel economy, and can cruise for long periods of time at sea in search of prey.

  The most threatening backfire bomber group is not among the nearby pro-Soviet countries. Admiral John Daniel, who has this kind of intelligence support, can put down the heart hanging in his throat a little.

  The news that two navies of similar tonnage but very different fighting styles faced off in Malacca soon spread all over the world. Soon, the two camps criticized each other again. Countries in the Warsaw Pact camp accused the U.S. Navy of playing maritime hegemony, the Seventh Fleet should make way for the Soviet Red Navy, and NATO accused the Soviet Pacific Fleet of tracking the U.S. Seventh Fleet. Very dangerous, and this tailgating is likely to have serious consequences.

   There has never been a winner in this war of words. Everyone cares about their own interests and will not put themselves in the shoes of others. Especially when it comes to dignity, compared to European public opinion, American newspapers have gone a step further, urging the U.S. Navy to give the Soviet Union a good look and defeat this challenger who appeared on the ocean.

   This military-blind argument, the Pentagon will not respond at all, and the Strait of Malacca is not an ocean battle. Once the war breaks out, there is only one outcome. The two fleets perish together, and then the world war breaks out.

   Although the media war between the Soviet Union and the United States was fierce, it was far away from the confrontation site, and the solemn atmosphere of the scene could not be felt. Compared with the two camps exchanging fire at a distance, Singapore, which is in the middle, has an unstoppable fear in his heart.

  The Soviet Pacific Fleet to the east and the U.S. Seventh Fleet to the west, two huge fleets have blocked the Strait of Malacca, and no ship has docked since the morning, which made Singapore as a transit point very embarrassing. The economic factor is just embarrassing. Life is more important than the economy. Because there are no ships to dock, and the battle formation between the United States and the Soviet Union has been set up, the Singaporeans are caught in the fear of war.

This confrontation quickly passed for three days. For three days, the golden waterway of Malacca was at a standstill, and no cruise ships docked. If there was any change, it was the Soviet Pacific Fleet and the US Seventh Fleet. The distance is a little closer, and there is news that Indonesia's anti-ship missile positions have been deployed.

   For three days, Singaporeans had nothing to do but read newspapers and news, and all TV programs and newspapers were talking about the two fleets, no exceptions. No matter how to avoid it, the dark cloud of war is always lingering on the heads of Singaporeans. This unprecedented pressure has made every Singaporean feel heavy.

Sin Chew Daily listed in detail the strengths and operational plans of the Soviet Union and the United States. The pessimistic prediction is that no matter who the Soviet Union or the Americans attacked first and how to counterattack later, as long as the war broke out, Singapore in the middle would affected. The Soviet Red Navy has always been carrying nuclear warheads. As long as any missile hits Singapore, Singapore will become history, and the entire Singapore is only enough for one nuclear missile to explode.

   "These superpowers don't take our voice seriously at all." A Singaporean said helplessly after reading the newspaper.

   The narrow Strait of Malacca was originally a very lively golden waterway. There are endless ships coming and going every day. It is the cargo ships from these countries that support Singapore in the Strait of Malacca. But since a few days ago, this golden waterway has been empty except for the sound of the waves, which makes Singaporeans who are used to busy work very uncomfortable. It seems that from a certain moment, the whole world has abandoned Singapore.

Singapore Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew called on the US and the Soviet Union to cherish peace and resolve the issue through diplomatic means, but no response was received from either side, neither Admiral John Daniel nor Admiral Spilidonov took Singapore's feelings to heart. , For soldiers like them, the weight of such a small country is almost non-existent.

"Commander, Commander of the Southern Theater Command, Admiral Serov's telegram." Among the flagships of the Soviet Pacific Fleet, Admiral Spiledonov received a domestic response. He was not a desperate adventurer, and it was very important to know the domestic attitude. . Because the mission of the Pacific Fleet is related to military operations in Turkey, Serov is temporarily regarded as his boss.

   "The meaning of the general political commissar is to continue the confrontation." Before the Soviet Ministry of Defense did not respond, Admiral Spiledonov first got support from Serov and asked him to contact the Indonesian Communist Party for support.

  The relationship between the Soviet Union and Indonesia is very good. After all, the Vietnam War has just ended. The Soviet Union, which is located in the cold zone, still relies on Indonesia to provide many unique tropical products. The relationship between the two countries has always been very close. Moreover, in the current Indonesian Communist Party, most of the party members have become Indonesian natives, and the Indonesian natives are obviously pro-Soviet.

   "It seems that the general political commissar of Belarus does not like that country." The fleet chief of staff said with a smile from the side.

The ideological authority of the Soviet Union is Suslov, and the second person who is still in charge of this work is Andropov, so the relationship between the two is more complicated. In this case, Serov will sometimes manage the ideological work of the military. , the political departments of the five branches of the military all have to follow the advice of the general political commissar. Admiral Spilidonov and other generals of the Pacific Fleet also attended the meeting in Moscow.

   Shelov also specifically mentioned the country of Singapore, comparing the city-state with Belarus abroad. Don't be polite once you meet them, you must educate them if you can educate them.

   "Commander, the U.S. Seventh Fleet went south and did not enter the Strait of Malacca." While they were talking about the White Russia issue, a staff officer came in and reported, "What's our next move?"

What is   ? Admiral Spiledonov picked up the microphone and ordered, "I am Spiledonov, and now I order the Pacific Fleet to enter the Strait of Malacca!" The warship split the waves and entered the Strait of Malacca.

   Then the Soviet Pacific Fleet anchored in the Strait of Malacca, blocking the entire strait tightly. The ship leader aimed in the direction of Singapore, and then sent people ashore to request the use of Singapore's port for supplies. The Pacific Fleet had no fuel and could not return to the Soviet Union.

   This is of course just an excuse. The Soviet Union can find many countries along the coast to help it complete this matter. This is just to make Singapore understand that don’t think that the US Navy can handle everything. In the future, the Soviet Red Navy will also appear here from time to time.

Facing the request of the Soviet Pacific Fleet, Singapore, which was ready to settle down, immediately cooperated and opened the port for the Soviet Red Navy to supply supplies. Admiral Spilidonov sent a message to Moscow that the confrontation in Malacca had been resolved because of the U.S. Navy’s diversion, and the Soviet Union obtained the victory.

  After two days in Malacca, the Soviet Pacific Fleet began to return. The confrontation in the Strait of Malacca was completely ended, but the impact of this confrontation was very far-reaching. Soon Singaporean Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew publicly declared that the Soviet Union was the master of the Eurasian continent. If anyone is the most influential person in the world, That was Brezhnev, the general secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union.

   On the same day Serov announced that the first Armenian death site had been found along the Euphrates River, and the wreckage at the scene exceeded 5,000, proving the existence of the Armenian genocide. (To be continued~^~)
