"From now on, Greece and the Soviet Union will be an unbreakable alliance. Greece has made a wise decision and first saw the trend of today's world!" The two goblets touched each other and made a clear sound. Serov faced Greece. General Konstantin Jean, Chief of the General Staff of the Wehrmacht, said in a meaningful way.

   "Of course, the Soviet Union is the most powerful military force in the world." Admiral Konstantin Jean's words were not without compliments. Turkey, which has been pressing on Greece's head for a long time, only persisted for a week. It was actually eliminated. He had heard this shock from the Greek officers who were about to leave the NATO headquarters. Even the NATO headquarters considered itself not an opponent, which only strengthened Greece's confidence in leaving.

   "We not only have the most powerful fully-mechanized army in the world today, but more importantly, we have ideals." Shelov was noncommittal, focusing on the feasting ball. We can kill Soviet soldiers in Turkey in a week today. These people used to have a unified name: the proletariat. When ideology and ideology turned into guiding ideology, the hungry, oppressed, and shivering workers at the bottom took up the weapons in their hands, they became the most fanatical army, formed a highly efficient regime, and they developed consciousness , form, they formed base areas, formed political parties, formed countries, formed alliances, the great Union of Soviet Socialist Republics.

"We should have won, there is no reason." Serov drank the red wine in his glass little by little. He liked this red color, which represented both the revolutionary ideal and the blood of human beings. People who are overwhelmed, when you face painful hunger, high housing prices and education, ubiquitous neglect and ridicule, you should remember the meaning of the hammer and sickle flag, all are created equal, and communism will surely accomplish.

   Today's reforms in Europe and the United States are the result of the socialists' wishes and protests, or the 4 million mechanized army of the Warsaw Pact. Anyone with brains should come to the correct conclusion.

"I have invited President Karamanlis to review the army together in Constantinople and celebrate this great victory with a military parade." Brezhnev raised his glass, "Comrades, friends of Greece Cheers, guys."

"Cheers, bang..." All the people present drank the wine in their glasses and raised their glasses to greet General Secretary Brezhnev and President Karamanlis. The Soviets and Greeks present put down their doubts and began to talk stand up.

During the conversation, there was no shortage of worries about whether the Soviet Union would interfere in the Greek economic and political system in the future. This issue had been discussed within the Soviet Union long before the reception. Taking Yugoslavia as an example, the Soviet Union did not hide its dissatisfaction with Yugoslavia, but The same dissatisfaction turned into dissatisfaction, and the Soviet Union only exerted pressure through public opinion. The Soviet Union didn't do anything to Yugoslavia, let alone Greece.

"Greece's military system is naturally consistent with the Warsaw Pact, but this is not a bad thing. The US army system is only suitable for them, while our Soviet system can adapt to most countries. Let Greece fight the Vietnam War once, and the Greek Air Force dispatches one. In this month, it is estimated that Greece will go bankrupt.” Both Serov and Ustinov are also communicating with the generals of the Greek Defense Forces. In the future, both parties in the Warsaw Pact will be colleagues. It is very normal to greet each other in advance.

"Actually, since this war, the external pressure on the Soviet Union has also eased a lot, and the military power of the Warsaw Pact can also be appropriately reduced, so as to reduce some military expenditures. The same is true for some Eastern European countries, which can use disarmament to retire some old-fashioned tanks." Ustinov knew that disarmament was imminent, and this was also necessary. Eastern European countries still had T34 tanks in active service, which just happened to be retired this time and supplemented by new tanks, which could also allow the Soviet military industry to continue to move forward.

   "What is the number of tanks in the Soviet Union? We only have a rough estimate when we were in NATO." Admiral Constantine asked. As a soldier, he is most interested in this question, which is the specific strength of the Warsaw Pact.

"It's about 50,000 or 60,000. This number changes every day. I can't give you a specific number. There are also American tanks in Greece, which are not suitable for use as main tanks. They cannot meet the war standards of the Soviet Union. Complete the replacement." Serov is also preparing to send some people to communicate with the Greek Defense Forces to see how the NATO-standard military system works, which is the KGB's own job.

  Compared with the euphoria of Greece and the Soviet Union, and even the entire Warsaw Pact countries, the entire NATO is a gloomy cloud. A great victory for the Soviet Union is a great defeat for NATO as a whole. Because of the improper operation of the Cyprus war, in just one month, NATO lost two member states and 600,000 troops of the two countries at the same time.

  The entire southern blockade was pierced by the Soviet Union, and the defense line preventing the Soviet Union from entering the Mediterranean no longer existed. The London Straits Convention and a series of Straits Conventions against the Soviet Union were all invalidated, and even Constantinople was captured by the Soviet Union. Because the Soviet Union sent troops to attack mercilessly, NATO countries did not know what to do for a while.

   Saying that the Soviet Union violated the London Straits Convention? The Soviet Union is at war, how can the London Straits Pact stop it? Then Turkey was quickly defeated, and the London Straits Convention became a waste of paper in an instant, and it was too late to protest.

The news that Greece had joined the Warsaw Pact caused a great shock within NATO, because the two major military groups themselves are NATO’s numerically inferior, and the reason for the impression that they seem to be encircling the Soviet Union is entirely because of Greece and Turkey. , so it looks like it has some advantages on the map.

   But at the same time, NATO countries also know that the Soviet Union is a European country, while the United States is an American country. If the Soviet Union wants to start a war, it can start at any time. It will take time for the United States to transfer troops from the mainland. When the American army is assembled, it is hard to say whether Europe exists or not. In fact, the attack intention is on the opposite Warsaw Pact, and NATO's combat plan is based on defense.

Originally, in terms of the number of soldiers and ground power, NATO was the weaker one. Now that the Turkish army has been defeated and Greece has joined the Warsaw Pact, the number of NATO soldiers has been reduced by 600,000 in an instant, because the Greek Defense Forces entered the Warsaw Pact and the Warsaw Pact. On the contrary, there were 200,000 troops, and this is an army of 800,000.

The simple calculation of    is based on the fact that the Yugoslav People's Army is not in the Warsaw Pact, and the Yugoslav People's Army is the third largest armed force in European socialist countries. What is even more disadvantageous is that after the Soviet Union killed Turkey and was in the European direction, will the second largest army group in the Caucasus direction be deployed in the European direction because of the disappearance of the Turkish threat? Judging from the number of troops sent by the Soviet Union this time, it is no weaker than the Western cluster in the GDR.

After such a scary comparison, all NATO members found that the strength of NATO has never been so unbalanced compared with the Warsaw Pact. The defense pressure of almost every NATO member has become more and more with the end of Greece and Turkey. bigger.

"Anyway, Turkey and the Soviet Union have always been feuding, and it is impossible to enter the Warsaw Pact. Why didn't we support Greece at the beginning? Well now, the number of soldiers on the opposite side is one million more than us. If a powerful enemy invades, they will consider using nuclear weapons first. This is equivalent to telling the Warsaw Pact that we can't beat you..." After a long silence, a British general rebuked dissatisfied.

"This is a mistake in judgment by the Americans. Didn't you Britons later say that there is no problem? Now that we are facing the Soviet Union's fully mechanized army, the only thing we can do is to use the nuclear bomb as a landmine and detonate it on our own territory. , isn't that what you think of the Federal Republic of Germany?" A German officer sneered, "Why do you take international responsibility, I hope the Federal Republic of Germany will expand the Wehrmacht to 700,000 people just to help you buy time to retreat."

"This kind of accusation is meaningless now, we should still unite and formulate a defense battle plan!" The Dutch officer coughed and said softly, "The participation of the Greek Defense Forces will put pressure on the entire Soviet Union from the Balkans to the Middle East. All have eased, including Bulgaria and Yugoslavia, and the confrontation in the future seems to be more violent."

   "We should find an opportunity to bring the French back. Without France, we cannot expand our potential." Someone put forward such an opinion.

"French? The French are about to be kidnapped by the Algerians, and the whole Algerian only listens to the Algerian Workers' Party, because the Warsaw Pact supported Algeria's independence ten years ago, and the Algerians generally have a good opinion of socialism. When France returns to NATO, first of all To make Algeria independent. The skirmishes in Algeria have been going on all the time, and if France really comes back, a second Algerian war of independence will break out soon.”

   Also, France itself does not produce oil, but Algeria has oil resources. Under the background of the world economic crisis, will the French let Algeria become independent? In the face of the economic crisis, each country has its own tricks to deal with. The Federal Republic of Germany is using the largest population and industry in Western Europe to resist, the United Kingdom is developing North Sea oil, and France is relying on Algeria's oil to operate. As for the Italians, Italy is preparing to talk to the Soviets. Business.

  In addition to a few powerful countries, the Netherlands, Belgium, and Portugal are more affected. I don’t think Portugal is about to revolutionize now. Other NATO countries don’t seem to be affected much because of their small population. But no one doubts that this economic crisis has weakened both Western Europe and the United States. (~^~)
