"Do you want to fully intervene?" Marshal Malinovsky was taken aback. It seemed that this gentleman, who was considered by all parties to be the first secretary of the balancer, wanted to play a big game.

"Comrade Malinovsky, you misunderstood. The degree of involvement should increase as the power of the United States increases, and decrease as the power of the United States decreases. It must be controlled within a certain range!" With a calm smile, he said, "Let the United States think that there is hope of victory, but it is so out of reach."

The military's consideration is relatively simple. First of all, Marshal Malinovsky believes that the large-scale Soviet intervention, North Vietnam can win is impossible. Even with the help of the Soviet Union, North Vietnam would not be able to face off against the U.S. military on a frontal battlefield. From the standpoint of the Soviet Union, they could only choose between defeat or a draw, until the Americans felt that the gains outweighed the losses and conceded defeat.

Therefore, this intervention method is nothing more than four stages, from "non-intervention" to "limited intervention", then to "active intervention", until the policy of "complete intervention", as much as the United States invested in the war, the Soviet Union invested as much Power, balance the power of America.

Since the Gulf of Tonkin incident, Brezhnev came to power and changed Khrushchev's policy of not intervening, and Soviet anti-aircraft missiles have been deployed around Hanoi. At the Pentagon, Alan Wilson asked the U.S. Air Force to copy the old story of burning Tokyo, but the Americans avoided it because the Americans had discovered the Soviet-style anti-aircraft missile Sam 2 and appeared in Hanoi.

"Comrade Malinovsky, the Ministry of Defense has come up with a plan to provide the air force required by North Vietnam." Brezhnev thought for a moment and said.

This is an offensive weapon, and it is no longer on the same level as anti-aircraft missiles, which marks that the Soviet Union has once again shifted from limited intervention to active intervention.

"Aid the MiG fighter jets in North Vietnam? Deliver them to Hanoi, I understand, Comrade Brezhnev." Malinovsky nodded immediately, and he would arrange it when he returned to the Ministry of Defense.

"Wrong, we only aid weapons, and the pilots are naturally driven by North Korean pilots, and these aid planes are built in China near the border." Brezhnev shook his head and corrected, "In this way, the U.S. Air Force will There is no way to use air superiority to destroy the aircraft we are assisting."

The Soviet Union still can't really send troops to the local area, all it can do is to assist, and whether the Americans can pay the price depends on the Vietnamese themselves.

Modern weapons need professional people to operate. For this reason, the Soviet Union should naturally send a large number of military experts and technicians to Vietnam to help Vietnam formulate combat plans, install and repair weapons and equipment, and train Vietnamese soldiers. As for personally operating weapons and participating in the war? Avoid it if you can.

Even the experts and consultants dispatched should be dispatched in their personal capacity. The Soviet Union must not openly fight the Americans. As for the future situation, we will talk about it later.

The aid should be moderated, and when Gromyko arrived at the Kremlin, Brezhnev put on a peaceful face again, asked what was going on at the Stockholm Conference, and then said, "It's okay now. What is certain is that the United Kingdom will definitely not intervene in the Vietnam War. With the strength of the British Royal Navy, it is impossible to land with the United States while concentrating on dealing with the archipelago country of Indonesia."

"Yes, Comrade Brezhnev. We can see from the post-war period that Britain was struggling to maintain the interests of its sphere of influence, but it was still weaker than in 1945. Although in certain areas I can still fight back, but it can only be said that it is still struggling.”

The struggle that Gromyko mentioned is nothing more than the civil war in Congo and the show of force against Indonesia. As for the British in many areas, they are in a stage of shrinking. It may not be so fast, but it is indeed shrinking.

"And France, we can see that the interests of European countries are still different from those of the United States. When Britain and France are defending their own interests and national strength, they will not dance with the United States unprincipled." Brezhnev took it out. the opinion of a female member of the Central Presidium.

This is what Furtseva said, and Gromyko smiled bitterly after listening to it, "I just saw Yekaterina's child, and arranged for him to go to the Stockholm conference to study."

"That's very good. This way, Yekaterina may be happier. Before his son applied to go to Vietnam, I felt that the atmosphere of the entire Central Presidium was wrong." Brezhnev breathed a sigh of relief, a look of fear With an expression, "Alekseev, right? It's not bad to put it in the neutral country of Sweden to exercise. We can cause some trouble for the United States in Southeast Asia, but the main direction is still in Europe, which cannot be changed."

Brezhnev knew very well that the importance of the Soviet Union was arranged from west to east in Europe, the Near East, the Middle East, Central Asia, and East Asia. This does not and cannot be changed.

The most important thing in Europe does not mean that other directions are not important. In fact, the Stockholm Conference is to win over India, and military assistance to Vietnam is to expand into East Asia. Success in other directions will give the Soviet Union an advantage in Europe, which is also agreed by Brezhnev. With such a high profile, the reason for Kosygin to dominate the Stockholm Conference.

When the two negotiated, Malinovsky was also formulating a plan to assist Vietnam. The Soviet Union has a bad relationship with a major country, but they have a common position on assisting Vietnam. The Soviet Union and Vietnam are not next to each other. If you face the overwhelming naval power of the hostile faction, what if you are stopped midway? It would be very humiliating, and it is inevitable to borrow the railway network of a major country to complete military aid.

It seems that the cost of aid to Vietnam is huge, but what is this cost compared to the military expenditure of the United States? For every dollar spent in the Soviet Union, the Americans would have to pay twenty dollars to deal with it.

On the London side, Alan Wilson listened to the progress of the boring and boring Stockholm meeting, yawned when he was idle, maybe his wife Pamela Mountbatten and the United States talked about arms sales more interesting than listening to diplomatic rhetoric every day, he didn't have to personally Pay attention, Markins has already conveyed everything when he came to the cabinet secretary's office.

"My colleagues in the Department of Defense said that this may be the most sincere time for the United States. When talking about technology transfer or arms sales before, the Americans were like Grandet." Markins said in an exaggerated tone that many defense Colleagues in the Ministry felt that they did not know the United States anymore.

"Oh, yes." Alan Wilson said in his heart. It's not that the Americans want to let the Royal Navy go astray as an arsenal ship, so they are so enthusiastic this time?

He only held a meeting of the aviation industry on the supersonic passenger aircraft project yesterday, and he is going to demonstrate the demonstration first. As for how long the demonstration will take, he will continue to demonstrate until the US supersonic passenger aircraft plan is finished.

Of course, if the French are willing, he can provide some technical help and let the French build the Concorde by themselves. Britain and France should report to the delegation to keep warm. This is all appropriate.

In fact, in addition to the British painting cakes, the first people who want to eat cakes are the French. Now the pattern of the international aviation market is very simple, and the British Comet airliner is the first to eat crabs. The United States, relying on its national strength, waited until Boeing took out its own passenger plane, but France had nothing.

Now it's just different from history, the British comet airliner was wiped out, and the French were in the newspaper group to keep warm. Instead, France regards the supersonic airliner project as an opportunity to break the world aviation pattern. I want to tear apart the iron curtain of Comet and Boeing under the current two-strong pattern.

Can't blame Alan Wilson for sitting and watching all this happen, he's British and knows supersonic airliners are a pit, but he's not obliged to drag France out, France has annexed Algeria, get such a big one for cheap What happened to the money to practice the supersonic airliner?

After returning home, Alan Wilson was going to ask his wife where she was. Pamela Mountbatten knew that her husband cared about this, and answered directly, "The Americans want an order of 500 planes, and the first 300 planes are made in England. The last two hundred will be produced in the United States, and we need our technical license. In exchange, the United States will provide Enterprise's fire control radar, electronic equipment, and a series of air defense missile support, and will send some technical experts to enter the missile battleship. construction process.”

Alan Wilson raised his eyebrows, not because he was afraid of being fooled by the UK. Let's see if the UK is really going to build a missile battleship~lightnovelpub.net~ The Americans really don't suffer from this, but Luckily the UK is actually going to build a guided missile battleship to house the US electronics in service.

"I heard that economists held a special meeting on economic development in Whitehall. How is it?" Pamela Mountbatten asked another question after introducing the situation here.

"Those liars, what useful suggestions can they come up with?" Alan Wilson muttered with a long face, "It's just to give them a platform to speak out and show the sincerity of the government still paying attention to economic development. If the economy develops so well , does the Prime Minister always work hard in the diplomatic field?"

Anyway, Alan Wilson seems to think that economic development is nothing more than just a few directions, or it is like the Soviet Union when the tertiary industry does not exist. Or become a debt society like America. Or is it the third route, each route is very difficult, the Soviet Union is destined to not live so well if it only focuses on industry and agriculture, but like 18% of the GDP of the United States is the medical industry? Also too much.

The United States has also created a $1 trillion real estate market with almost the same size as a large country with one-tenth of the steel output and one-twentieth of the cement output of a large country. It would be outrageous to go into service with a finished weapon.
