"No way, they are all old imperialist countries. This time the battle is so big. Argentina can't bear it." Defense Minister Ustinov still doesn't believe that Britain is declining so much that even Argentina can't handle it. level. The most optimistic estimate is to see how much heritage the Royal Navy still has.

   "I just said casually, let's see how the air defense standard of the British Royal Navy is." Shelov smiled and didn't answer.

The British naval air defense standard in the Battle of the Falklands is simply a sieve. Even facing the Argentine Air Force is this virtue. When facing the backfire bomber group of the Soviet Red Navy, the Soviet Navy Air Force dispatched and the British Royal Navy was completely wiped out. There will be no second result at all.

   The result of this battle is to make the French flying fish famous, and by the way, let the world know that the old imperialist country has become what it is now. A more serious consequence was that the Soviet Union was deceived. The Soviet Union compared it with the level of NATO's second child, and felt that imperialism was nothing more than that. It turns out that NATO is not as strong as it seems. In fact, the UK has declined to the extreme. It can be used to compare the United States with the United Kingdom. It is definitely a huge mistake to think that the United States is like this.

   In principle, the Soviet Union and the entire socialist camp are sitting on the sidelines, watching the old imperialist expeditions with a neutral attitude. After all, how much combat capability Britain has now can only be tested by real wars.

   However, in most of the predictions, many people still think that the United Kingdom will not take much effort to rub Argentina to the ground. After all, the name of the old imperialism is still a bit bluffing. As long as Britain can ensure that the supply line reaches the Falklands, Argentina cannot win in any case.

   For the second child of NATO, whether it is the Soviet Union or other countries in the socialist camp, they all look at it, at least a lot higher than the Netherlands and Belgium. It is generally believed that after the United Kingdom arrives on the battlefield, it will feel that it has a great advantage, and then press it. No one thought England would be GG'd.

"With the current size of the British Royal Navy, as long as a light aircraft carrier is sunk, it is equivalent to a defeat. In a few years, there is no need to cooperate with the United States to trouble us at all." Shelov shouted at the meeting of the defense committee, "Even if It is to quickly pass the ship renewal plan, and it takes time for an aircraft carrier to go from being on the slipway to launching."

   "I don't know if we fight in place of Britain, how many days will we be able to occupy the Falklands?" Marshal Ogarkov, Chief of the General Staff, is a very interesting person who always puts forward some very interesting ideas.

"If we start from Chile and use Cuba and Angola as air bases, then we don't have to fight at all." Serov snapped his phalanx and said lazily, "Let's see how much time we can take to replace Argentina with the United Kingdom. The idea of ​​sending an expeditionary force to the bottom of the sea will be more interesting."

   "General Political Commissar, you're right!" Marshal Ogarkov, Chief of the General Staff, thought for a while, and a smile appeared on his face. This idea deserves more discussion than the idea he proposed.

   British Expeditionary Force Task Force, Rear Admiral Woodward looked calm, and was also disturbed by this war in his heart. This British Expeditionary Force is the weakest one in centuries. Once upon a time, Britain actually needed a 20,000-ton Invincible-class aircraft carrier as the main force of the fleet? Was it during the First World War when the aircraft carrier was just invented?

   "General, the radar detected that the fighter plane is approaching!" This report shocked Rear Admiral Woodward in his heart, but he immediately relaxed, at least he knew that this was a place that Argentina could not reach. Now his level of tension is almost the same as that of the Second Fleet of the Russian Empire during the Russo-Japanese War. Fortunately, he did not do the stupid thing of sinking neutral ships in the Atlantic Ocean.

   Soon the task force figured out the nationality of the fighter, and Major General Woodward couldn't laugh anymore. The Soviet Tu-95 strategic bomber, the strategic bomber, did not hide at all, and flew over the British Royal Navy swaggeringly. This behavior made Major General Woodward even more upset, which reminded him of the Russo-Japanese War at the beginning of the century. The British banned the Russian Imperial Navy from supplying the British colonies along the way, and now the Soviet Union is coming to harass the British Royal Navy with hostility, just like yesterday. Only the positions of the two parties are different.

"If it were the combat radius of a US Navy aircraft carrier, we would still need a certain risk to get in, but what about the British Royal Navy? Their air defense capabilities are far less terrible than blown out, and the poor combat radius of the Harrier fighter jets. , what can I use to resist granite? I don't know how precious life is." In Moscow, thousands of miles away from the British task force, Serov drew a number for the idea of ​​the Soviet Union replacing Argentina.

  If the Soviet Union occupied the Falkland Islands, now the Falklands would not be a problem, because Argentina would recognize the Falklands as part of the Soviet Union. Didn't Galtieri think there was a chance when Britain's last conventional aircraft carrier was decommissioned three years ago?

   It is absolutely impossible for Mrs Thatcher to win so easily. In fact, the United Kingdom has devoted all its efforts to the Falklands War, and even made full preparations diplomatically, but Shelov believes that the loss of the United Kingdom on the Falklands is not enough. It is not enough to make all countries despise the combat effectiveness of NATO's second child, so that the United States does not dare to go into battle against the Soviet Union for a while. This year, Brezhnev will come to an end. At least this time will be dragged on, and the United States will not be able to take hold of it.

   There is another consideration, that is, the political structure of the United Kingdom. Mrs Thatcher was able to come to power entirely because the Labour Party was split, but although she successfully came to power, the current political situation in the United Kingdom is not over yet. In addition to the Labour Party, the UK also has a very powerful National Federation of Trade Unions. In history, Margaret Thatcher defeated Yu Wei and it took two more years to quell the resistance of the British Federation of Trade Unions. At the same time, she also wanted to talk to China about colonies The problem.

  The former Margaret Thatcher took some time to succeed, while the latter, the UK, who tried her best to win on the Falklands, could scare China, and no other Chinese would be frightened by such a weak UK.

  If Margaret Thatcher of Britain and General Galtieri of Argentina were to die together, wouldn't the Soviet Union be happy. Anyway, if these two people have only one thing in common, they are pro-American. If there is a second one, it is anti-Soviet Union, but the second common point is strong or weak. This is also the opportunity for the Soviet Union to disgust the United States in Latin America.

   However, the time for this war to break out is a bit late, a few months later than in history. If it still lasts as long as history, it might bump into Brezhnev's death date.

   This year's October Revolution Festival has already started to warm up more than a month earlier. At least from any aspect, no one can find the meaning of the Soviet Union's preparation for the Falklands War. This year is not such a big day, if the Uzbek Communist Party has already arrested more than 30,000 cadres.

   But this was decided by Brezhnev himself. I wonder if he saw the economic report of 90% of the size of the U.S. economy that gave the great leader the idea that he must celebrate. Now the Komsomolskaya Pravda is emphasizing that this is a year of decisive significance, a year that will change the world pattern. The intersection between the Soviet Union and the United States has appeared, and the situation is about to undergo a decisive reversal.

   This was originally an entertainment report by the Soviet Union, but it was immediately reprinted by the British and American media. Mainly because if this counts as deception, the Soviet Union's cost this time is too large. The Komsomolskaya Pravda appeared in person to sing praises for Brezhnev, and leaders at all levels said that under the wise leadership of the great leader, it was just around the corner to surpass the United States, and Reagan Economics, at a critical moment in the United States, also began to believe in the Soviet Union In terms of economic strength, it has already begun to catch up with the United States.

   After all, the Soviet Union surpassed the United States in more than 20 industrial indicators. Many Americans, who lacked confidence after the Vietnam War, believed that the Soviet Union was already stronger than the United States. As for military strength, the members of the Pill Party in all countries are the same, and the enemy is always stronger than himself.

The self-confidence of more than 200 million people in the Soviet Union has infected many Americans on the other side of the ocean. It has put a lot of pressure on the US President Reagan at a critical moment. I believe that if Reagan can get through the difficulties, he will definitely find trouble with the Soviet Union. . But now, he also needs to be careful through the current sensitive period.

   This is also the reason why Reagan wanted to mediate the conflict between Britain and Argentina. Now is not the best time to use force. But once Britain made up its mind, Reagan would continue to support it. Let General Galtieri understand that his surname is not Zhao.

By mid-October, the Royal Air Force began to station at Widiawick Air Force Base on Ascension Island in the Atlantic Ocean, including **** McDonnell Douglas FGR.2 fighter-bombers and 44 Squadron Vulcan bombers, There is also a fleet of Victory tankers. Meanwhile, the Royal Navy task force arrived in Asuncion waters to prepare for battle. A small force has been sent to the front to reclaim South Georgia.

  The British Expeditionary Force had no trouble finding the Argentine Navy submarine. The Argentine Navy submarine Santa Fe was spotted by a British Royal Navy helicopter and was attacked with depth charges. Seventy-six British troops landed on South Georgia, and soon the Argentine garrison on the island surrendered without a fight, and the British recovered South Georgia.

   "Ah? Didn't I remind the Argentines that the British Army is not weak?" Hearing this information, Serov had to stop the summary report on the significance of the October Revolution and temporarily stop flattering Brezhnev. He knew the red deer of the Argentine Army, but he didn't expect such a waste.
