"Would you like to send troops to interfere? Mr. President!" Secretary of Defense Harold Brown also felt that the situation was serious, but during Harold Brown's tenure, the US military spending has always been reduced. Just because the factor of inflation seems to have increased, many military projects have been dismantled, and no one knows whether the US military can support the offensive. The United States only intervened in the civil war in Angola and quickly retreated, leaving South Africa and the Soviet Union against each other. Iran is a neighboring country of the Soviet Union. Once the United States sends troops to interfere in Iran, it may lead to the interference of the Soviet Union.

  The United States has carried out cross-oceanic operations twice since World War II, but it seems that the effect is not good. The first time I didn't win, and the second time I lost directly, there are no underpants left. If the transoceanic operation is launched for the third time, facing the Soviet Union in northern Iran, no one can say whether the United States will have huge problems after a war. You must know that the power of the Soviet Union is much stronger than that of China. If you really use Iran to delay the United States, the United States will be finished.

   This also takes into account the aftermath of the Vietnam War, which greatly changed the situation of the Cold War. The United States has changed from a strong side in the Cold War to a weak side. In the face of the aggressive attack of the Soviet Union, the Vietnam War even exacerbated the racial and civil rights issues in the United States, leaving the country in a state of extreme division and causing huge damage to the American people. Trauma.

   The regime backed was simply unpopular because of the overwhelming US military superiority and inability to win. This has made the American people begin to doubt the purpose of the military's combat capabilities. Even Vietnam can't get rid of it. How to fight against the socialist camp? Can you beat the Soviet Union if you can't beat Vietnam?

  Because the failure of a Vietnam War is not unbearable, but once there is a comparison, it will make the American mind even more unbalanced. At the same time as the domestic chaos in the United States, the Soviet Union switched from defense to offense and launched a global offensive. The battlefields covered all continents in Asia, Africa and Latin America. They were invincible along the way. They won Laos in 1974, Cambodia in 1975, Thailand in 1977, and Thailand in 1977. In eight years, Myanmar revised its constitution and country name, and the country turned to develop relations with the socialist camp. Afghanistan in Central Asia was controlled by the pro-Soviet People's Party, and India in South Asia annexed Bangladesh with the support of the Soviet Union.

  The Soviet Union supported five socialist countries in southern Africa in one go and surrounded the African superpower South Africa. The other direction starts from Sudan and Ethiopia along the Great Rift Valley all the way south to South Africa. South Africa, which had an absolute advantage in Africa, had to start to retreat, and the oppression was unbearable.

  The wave of the Soviet Union's offensive in the world has been higher and higher. In this comparison, the performance of the United States, which has just struggled out of the quagmire, has made the American people extremely disappointed. Some people think that the United States is not the opponent of the Soviet Union in the end. This kind of loss of confidence is very terrifying. Although Secretary of Defense Harold Brown advocates sending troops, he has no confidence in whether he can pass it, and whether he can win after passing through. . The Minister of Defense has no confidence. You can imagine how much confidence the people have in a new war. The biggest possibility is that the Congress just started to discuss it and was immediately surrounded by protesters.

   "No one can send troops, no one will agree." President Carter kept shaking his head, not to see Reagan attacking the policies of the Democratic government so violently now, but in fact, with Reagan, President Carter also thought that the other party had nothing to do. Now the basic conditions are like this. Could it be that Reagan sent troops directly without doing anything? It's simply not possible unless the economy gets better, but who knows when the economy gets better.

Carter, who was preparing for the exhibition, frowned and said, "We can't send troops. If we send troops, it will definitely be a big mistake. Iran and the Soviet Union are neighbors. We have just pulled our feet out of the quagmire of Vietnam. Do we want to step on a country with a larger population and a larger area? In a big quagmire? The Soviets are the happiest."

Although President Carter is not a genius, as long as you take a look at Iran, you can find that Iran has been surrounded by three socialist countries. Once the United States sends troops to intervene to protect the unpopular King Pahlavi, the Soviet Union is very willing to cooperate with the United States. Iran is a country that is messed up.

"Then what should we do? Shah Pahlavi's army is beginning to be in chaos, which is a bad sign." Defense Minister Harold Brown was a little worried. Just like Serov saw Iran's deductions, he now sees Iran's deductions. All kinds of forces are also very embarrassing, no matter how they evolve, it is not good for the United States.

   I couldn't find a place to start for a while, and Serov was in such distress a few days ago. The United States is even more troubled. The Soviet Union can easily exert influence on the countries of Eurasia as long as it wants to, but the United States cannot. After World War II, the United States competed with the Soviet Union entirely by virtue of its national strength, which was much stronger than that of the Soviet Union. Once the two national strengths were brought closer, the Soviet Union's own advantages in Eurasia became very important.

   "Pressure on Pahlavi to put most of the power in the hands of those who align with our values." After long deliberation, President Carter still showed his decisiveness. At this time, only the rights of the Pahlavi king can be sacrificed.

   King Pahlavi is, after all, a perpetually self-aware king. At the time, Iran’s firm support for Saudi Arabia tripled the price of oil and caused huge damage to the United States. Now that this king can no longer serve the interests of the United States, then abandon it, anyway, the same thing the United States has done once.

   "Let Shahivan and Pahlavi communicate, this king must give up more rights." President Carter said decisively.

  When the riots in Iran are in full swing, the United States is ready to reach an agreement with Iran’s pro-Western parties, at the same time bribe the Iranian army generals, make empty checks to the top government officials, and then send Sullivan to trick Pahlavi to give up resistance and go into exile.

  The person chosen by the United States was Shapur Bakhtiar, the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Iran. Almost at the same time, Serov arrived in Baku, the capital of Azerbaijan, and also began to meet people from the Iranian People's Party, the proxy of the Soviet Union.

   During World War II, the Iranian communist Latimash and others rebuilt the party organization with the support of the Soviet Union and named it the People's Party. Under the rule of the Pahlavi dynasty, this party was of course illegal. For a long time, the Baath Party has dominated Iran, and the ban on the establishment of parties has only been in effect for a few years in Iran.

   But even in this case, the strength of the BJP is still developing well. After all, the contradictions in Iran are very large. There are about 3 million industrial workers, and the wages of Iranian American executives and employees are more than ten times different from that of Iranian workers. This naturally makes the BJP develop rapidly. With such a big gap, coupled with the unemployment crisis, there is naturally room for the Iraqi Communist Party to engage in activities, and it is funny to say that the left-wing backbone elements of the Iraqi Communist Party are almost all victims of the White Revolution and land reform, and the second part of the big landlords. The children of the generation, the children of bankrupt landowners, have now transformed themselves to lead the labor movement in Iran.

  Serov will not be surprised then, after all, who said that the aristocracy cannot revolutionize? The Decembrists in Imperial Russia were also nobles, as was Dzerzhinsky. The revolution cannot always have the illiterate people who cannot read one big character as the main force. Even if it can, the leader must be literate. Although the descendants of these big landowners have not been able to play the big mullahs of Iran. But that is history. Now Serov feels that it is not impossible to win at all. The biggest obstacle has been eliminated by himself, right?

"Hello, comrades, let me first tell you some bad news. NATO Deputy Commander Hughes has arrived in Tehran and is in contact with Bakhtiar. Now it seems that your fate is not very optimistic." A blockbuster is definitely not good news. All of a sudden, the people of the Iranian People's Party were overwhelmed by their meals.

   This kind of behavior in the United States is well understood. Any outbreak of things has advantages and disadvantages, not only disadvantages and no advantages. As for why the United States does this, Serov can also find several reasons from the perspective of the Americans. Iran has begun to take an independent line on oil policy, seriously undermining U.S. interests. The United States hopes to expand the influence of Islamic fundamentalist forces in the Middle East.

The grand strategic policy of the United States helps to strengthen the religious forces in the Middle East, influences the religious forces of peace in the similar Central Asia and the Caucasus, awakens the religious awareness of the pacifists in the Soviet Union, triggers chaos in the Soviet Union, and exacerbates the former pacifist republic in the Soviet Union. centrifugal force.

  Shelov has strengthened the KGB in Central Asia and the Caucasus, and has built a giant gulag in Central Siberia. All the conditions are there, the whole city has everything except heating. The environment is very good and there is absolutely no smog, and the surrounding 200 kilometers are inaccessible. It is used to deal with religious elements who may be ready to move.

  But passive defense is of course not something the KGB should do, especially now with such good geographical conditions, Iran has been surrounded by socialist countries.

"I know that you control the unions, you are just hiding among the mullahs, and you start fighting against the king in the name of religion. I must say that this is not a good idea." Serov said, "There are three million industrial workers in Iran. , there is widespread bankruptcy in rural areas, some of you are the victims. Whether from the city or from the countryside, you can completely ditch the religion and go it alone, I understand that the BJP considers paying a smaller price, but don't forget, no matter Whether it is Western agents or you revolutionaries, none of them are as popular as religious leaders. So the religious brand can be used for now. It is time for a real revolution.”

   "Real revolutionaries, don't say they can't fight." Shelov looked at these people with contempt. (To be continued~^~)
