Big Time 1958
v1 Chapter 857: I am healthy
"Two enemies, kill them to death. Or are they begging us? That's all good to say. Give him all the information General Galtieri wants, and tell him that Britain is going all out to start the war. Yes, as long as it can withstand this wave of attacks, it is impossible for the United Kingdom to conjure up a second Royal Navy out of thin air." The chief political commissar has always spoken without a backache, but now he can only give the Argentines some spiritual support. The words of Argentina's last left-wing government were not forgotten.
What else can I do now? Serov thought for a while, because Argentina and Chile have a very bad relationship, so the imaginary enemy of the Argentine Air Force is also Chile, so in the Falklands War, the Argentine Air Force was a little less red than the Army and Navy. But the strong ones are also limited, because Argentina once wanted to raid Chile, so the Argentine Air Force specially practiced bombing on the ground.
Only then did the ultra-low-altitude penetration of the Argentine Air Force pilots in the Falklands Battle, which was originally prepared for Chile.
Also for this reason, the Soviet Union specially manufactured a batch of anti-aircraft missiles to deal with Argentina. Now it seems that these anti-aircraft missiles will not be used in Chile in a short period of time. However, before the official start of the war, there were indeed two sets of SAMs on the Falkland Islands. The launcher of the Mum missile. That's right, the Sam 2, the oldest Soviet anti-aircraft missile. It was given to Argentina by President Allende.
Sam 2 anti-aircraft missiles are now embarrassing among the Soviet Union's foreign weapons, and even Middle Eastern countries are not easily fooled. It stands to reason that there should be little use in the face of the United Kingdom, but we also need to see who the opponent is. If it is the Vulcan bomber made by the United Kingdom in the 1950s, Comrade Sam can definitely fight for another 20 years.
It is impossible to defeat an industrial country by giving arms to an agricultural country. Serov is not ready to complete such a Zentraedi mission. He just wants to take advantage of the fact that Britain is not paying attention, and that's it.
"Where is the Red Navy!" Serov, who was interrupted to flatter, was not angry, but asked with interest.
"We are protected by 12 backfire bombers from our air base in Angola, 400 nautical miles east of the Royal Navy!" said Servanov, the director of the General Services Office. in mind.
400 nautical miles is a relatively safe location. The range of the granite heavy anti-ship missiles carried by the Red Navy is not enough to threaten the British Royal Navy. The British Royal Navy's Harrier fighters also cannot pose a threat to the Soviet Red Navy. But even so, the United States is still afraid that the Soviet Union will be excited and launch an attack to fish in troubled waters. Therefore, nearly a hundred nautical miles northwest of the Soviet Red Navy, there is also an American aircraft carrier fleet monitoring the situation of the Red Navy.
That is the limit range of the Red Navy Granite heavy anti-ship missile. Although the US Navy does not know this, it still stays there for safety. At the same time, it also expresses enough respect for the backfire bomber group in Angola. The air-to-air radar has always been At work, complete the task of monitoring the Soviet Red Navy by yourself.
The British Royal Navy is one of the protagonists of this war, but now that the war has just begun, the US Navy and the Soviet Red Navy have begun to compete. The navy is somewhat overshadowed.
The confrontation between the Soviet Red Navy and the U.S. Navy in the South Atlantic caused huge repercussions in Latin American countries. Pro-Soviet governments in Cuba, Chile, Nicaragua, and Grenada have protested. In most Latin American countries, the pro-American forces must have the upper hand, but the Latin American economy has nothing to do with success, so the socialist movement is also very strong, even if the Soviet Union is not enthusiastic about the revolutionary struggle in Latin America. There are still several small pro-Soviet countries in Latin America, and now these small countries are beginning to show their value.
The United States supported the United Kingdom, but not the American countries, which made these small Latin American countries very dissatisfied. Now they are instigated by Cuba and Chile, and the anti-American wave has further erupted, making the United States very passive for a while. The U.S. Navy’s surveillance of the Soviet Red Navy was meant to help the United Kingdom. The current anti-American wave has made the U.S. government very embarrassed.
But we can't retreat. It's clear who is more important between Britain and Argentina. Even if we wait for economic assistance to Latin America after the war to quell the anti-American wave, we must not retreat now. Reagan emphasized this point to the ministers at the White House, and the Soviet Red Navy should not be allowed to approach the war zone between the British Expeditionary Force and Argentina. What are you afraid of being scolded, the Soviet Union has been scolded by the United States for decades, and people are not developing very well now.
It was a bit chilly in Moscow in October, the tentative attack between Britain and Argentina was over, and it was unknown when the real battle would begin. The British should also be content. There are two of the world's only two navies watching the battle, and B1 and Figure 95 keep appearing in the sky every day. What a face.
After the British recaptured the island, they immediately prepared to further expand the victory. Before facing one of the world's oldest navies and the still powerful British navy, any opponent would have the worst idea; in the early stages of the battle, the Argentine Navy was wise It was decided that most ships should avoid conflict with the Royal Navy's surface and submarine strike groups. But the paradox is that the Afghan navy cannot avoid war or hang up a war-free card to avoid harm from national dignity.
The Captain of the Conqueror, Lieutenant Colonel River Brown, immediately reported this timely information to the Fleet Commander, Rear Admiral Woodward; when the Argentine ships left the 200-nautical-mile blockade of the Falklands declared by the British, the British still did not intend to let them go. they are considered a threat. Sinking a battleship is a major blow to the morale of the enemy.
At the cabinet meeting, Mrs Thatcher emphasized this meaning, "You should be able to understand the grief of the entire British Empire when the Hood sank, and the huge sense of revenge when the Bismarck was sunk by us. ... The sinking of one of the emblematic ships of the Argentine Navy helped to disintegrate the will of the Argentines to resist."
"And the Soviet Red Navy and the U.S. Navy are facing each other not far from the war zone. The Royal Navy should prove its combat capability, on the one hand to reassure our allies, and on the other hand to shock and deter the Soviet Red Navy. Today's British Royal Navy, still You can go on expeditions, and you can also dominate the world." A flash of pride flashed in Mrs Thatcher's eyes, "Napoleon has not defeated us, Hitler has not defeated us, and we will never lose to a second-rate country."
These remarks made all the cabinet members uncontrollably applaud. In the hearts of many people, Mrs Thatcher was even more responsible than them. With the unanimous consent of the cabinet, Mrs Thatcher authorized the USS Conqueror nuclear submarine to attack.
"The British task force has an absolute advantage. When the Argentines face the British, they still have no confidence." In the air above the 200-nautical-mile blockade, a Soviet Tu-95 strategic bomber was patrolling leisurely. The British declared that any ships and planes entering the 200-nautical-mile blockade would be sunk.
Of course the pilot of the Tu-95 strategic bomber knows this, but there are exceptions to everything. For the British, the two countries with big fists are the exceptions. At the beginning of the Soviet aircraft entering the blockade area, the Royal Navy was also on alert, and The expulsion action was no longer concerned later, and the Soviet Union would not pay attention to the actions of the United Kingdom at all. The world is such a reality.
After this Tu-95 strategic bomber turned around for a while, it began to return. The Soviet Union has an air base in Angola, which is much more convenient than the British, but it cannot be over the Falklands at any time.
On the edge of the 200-nautical-mile blockade, there is also the Soviet Union's ocean-going monitoring fleet, no, it's the ocean-going fishing fleet. The fishery needs of the Soviet people need to be addressed. Based on the principle that no one can come to my waters, except for the principle that our territorial waters are high seas, it is normal for the Soviet fleet to have a fleet of ships in the South Atlantic waters.
"What does Shen Shen have to do with me?" Holding the telegram from Angola to Lubyanka, Serov suddenly discovered the name of an Argentine warship, and instantly knew that this was the one that was set an example by the British Royal Navy in history. During his visit to Argentina, the chief political commissar did not waver or even wanted to laugh.
The South Atlantic Ocean in October has absolutely nothing to do with warmth, not to mention that it is not far from Antarctica. In the afternoon, night had fallen, but it was the same for the nuclear submarine Conqueror lurking in the deep sea.
Suddenly, the captain was shocked. The cabinet's telegram had arrived at the USS Conqueror nuclear submarine, ordering them to sink the cruiser "General Belgrano", and the USS Conqueror nuclear submarine quickly pursued the cruiser "General Belgrano". Just as the Argentine Navy flagship was about to return to port, the nuclear submarine Conqueror launched a torpedo attack.
The tiger fish torpedo charged towards the cruiser at a rate of fire of 80 kilometers per hour. The mother boat transmitted the homing data to the torpedo's computer through the wire. The torpedo automatically corrected its course until it approached the final range. The magnetic guidance device took effect automatically and accurately hit the main cabin below the port side of the ship.
In an instant, the cruiser "General Belgrano" made a huge vibration, water poured into the cabin from a huge hole of twelve meters, and the warship soon tilted and sank, accompanied by the spreading fire. The entire cruiser could explode at any time.
When the news came, the whole world was shocked, because the location where the cruiser "General Belgrano" was sunk was outside the battle zone demarcated by the British Royal Navy. The state jointly protested.
"About the October Revolution, of course my personal opinion is to participate. Don't persuade you, I am in good health!" Brezhnev said indifferently, "Get ready to celebrate, for our great motherland."
