"I think General Deinegin will handle this matter very well, and there is no need for the KGB to do its best." Yanayev is going to contact the Soviet Air Force to hold a grand farewell ceremony for Turkey.

At that time, Yanayev did not believe that under such oppression, the Turkish army still had the power to fight back.

Yanayev said confidently, "The Soviet Union only needs to dispatch a Tu-22 bomber regiment and a Su-34 bomber regiment to cause irreparable damage to all ships on the Black Sea. In conjunction with the live-fire exercise on the Black Sea Black Sea Fleet, I think the entire formation is enough to make the Turkish army at a loss."

This is the last hole card for the Soviet Union to oppress Turkey. Not to mention Turkey, even Romania and Bulgaria can only choose to avoid such a huge battle, avoiding the invincible edge of the Soviet Union.And whether the US aircraft carrier battle group dares to sail from the Mediterranean to the Black Sea by then is not a question for Yanayev to think about.

"Thank you, Comrade Kryuchkov." Yanayev patted Kryuchkov on the shoulder and smiled, "You just need to monitor every move of the PKK and don't let them The early action destroyed the Soviet Union's plan. Next is our army's contest in the Black Sea, whether it is the Turkish military or the government, their expressions will become very exciting at that time."

Chapter 529 Flying Hell

Deinekin did not expect to welcome the visit of General Secretary Yanayev during this period. After all, the whole country is now focusing on the issue of the Black Sea dispute. Of course, Yanayev's appearance means that the Black Sea dispute will follow It will be even more intense, at least compared to the previous sea exercises, the intervention of the Soviet Air Force will trigger a new round of panic.

Deinekin did not guess wrong. Yanayev’s request for the mobilization of the Soviet Air Force was the first thing he said, “We need to deploy the Tu-22 Backfire bomber at the Soviet Air Force Base in Sevastopol, and the Soviet Air Force that has just entered service. 34 bombers, to put pressure on the Turkish fleet and the US aircraft carrier battle group."

Yanayev's words stunned Deinegin for a moment, and he carefully tested Yanayev's attitude, "Then how many Tu-22 bombers and Su-34 bombers are we going to dispatch from the Sevastopol Air Force Base?"

"Move out at least half of them." Yanayev's tone was so firm that it was impossible to refute.

Deinekin showed embarrassment. According to Yanayev's request, at least 14 Tu-22 strategic bombers and 8 Su-34 bombers will be dispatched from the Sevastopol Belbek base and the Cornisson base. , and because the Su-34 has just been installed in the Soviet Air Force on a large scale, the entire Sevastopol can barely maintain the level of more than a dozen aircraft.

"In this case, we also need to dispatch a certain number of Su-27 fighter jets to escort, after all, the opponent has an aircraft carrier battle group." Deinekin hesitated to express his thoughts, and Yanayev almost moved his words. Air is responsible for all fighter jets in the airspace of the Black Sea Fleet. Can such a pressure situation really make the other party succumb?Or did it end up sparking a conflict?

当年一架图95和两架逆火轰炸机围着日本岛勾勒死亡圆环就已经吓得日本自卫队不敢出声了，如果出动了14架图22战略轰炸机和8架苏34战斗机，加上苏27的护航，那可是将近一个航空兵团的作战能力了。

At that time, let alone the Turkish Air Force, I am afraid that even the countries around the Black Sea should weigh their chances of winning in the face of the Soviet Union's terrible combat power.

Yanayev said, "Figure 22 carries AS-4 to carry out anti-ship missions, and Su-34 also carries air-launched Ruby anti-ship missiles. Ships counterattack. Ensure the safety of our Black Sea Fleet."

"Any other questions?" Yanayev asked.

"No, I will take care of the arrangements." Jaynekin nodded.This is an excellent period to show the world the military power of the Air Force. Deinekin must be careful to complete the great task assigned to him by Yanayev.

Yanayev stretched out his hand to signal for Deinekin to calm down. He hadn't finished speaking, "And the timing of the air force's dispatch must be chosen properly. Now the US aircraft carrier battle group is approaching the Dardanelles in the Aegean Sea. When they are about to pass through the strait, they immediately dispatch the air force to cover the Black Sea Fleet that is conducting actual combat exercises. At that time, I want to see how the American battle will end."

Now that the Black Sea Fleet has no aircraft carrier, the Air Force and Navy must cooperate to perform a wonderful Black Sea drama.Yanayev also decided to face the American threat with the toughest attitude.He wants the United States to know that the Soviet Union is definitely not easy to mess with.What's more, the vine system has just entered service recently, and Yanayev also hopes to use it to test the combat capabilities of the Soviet Red Navy.

After Yanayev was sent away, the Soviet Air Force Command immediately issued an order, ordering the air base in Sevastopol in the Black Sea to enter a state of readiness, dispatching more than half of the fighter jets to provide air cover for the Black Sea Fleet, and at the same time execute anti-ship The mission, the target is the Turkish Navy and the US Pacific Fleet.

At this time, the US aircraft carrier battle group had just arrived in the Dardanelles. President Demirel did not prohibit the passage of the US fleet according to the original agreement. Instead, he used the presidential privilege to directly let the US aircraft carrier pass through the Dardanelles. Marmara Sea, and then through the Bosporus Strait to reach the Black Sea.

The USS Stennis aircraft carrier dispatched by the United States was originally to replace the George Washington to perform tasks, but was dispatched to the Black Sea to deal with this "Black Sea crisis" due to a temporary sudden incident.As for the escort ships, there are one Ticonderoga-class guided missile cruiser, two Burke-class guided-missile destroyers, Spruance-class guided-missile destroyer, one Perry-class guided-missile frigate, and two Los Angeles-class attack nuclear submarines.This kind of formation alone has made Washington full of confidence. They believe that even the combat strength of the Soviet Black Sea Fleet is not as good as that of the US aircraft carrier battle group.

But the United States has overlooked one thing. Now the Black Sea Fleet is the last fleet that has not been fully transformed among the four major fleets of the Soviet Union. Their combat methods, as Admiral Gorshkov emphasized, use surface ships, submarines and Combat aircraft and other aircraft carrying anti-ship missiles adopt a high-density, continuous attack penetration method. At the same time, in a short period of time, missiles that exceed their anti-strike capabilities are fired at the same target from different directions and levels in the air, water surface, and underwater , so that the anti-missile resistance capability of the maritime air defense system of the enemy aircraft carrier formation is in a saturated state that cannot be dealt with in a short period of time, so as to achieve the purpose of increasing the probability of anti-ship missile penetration and destroying the target.

In other words, the Black Sea Fleet didn't want to spend time with you from the very beginning, but directly took the Stennis as the number one target of destruction.

The aircraft carrier USS Stennis safely entered the Marmara waters. Captain Hendlisk breathed a sigh of relief temporarily. As long as the US aircraft carrier battle group appeared in the Black Sea, it was time for the Soviet fleet to restrain its arrogance.And as long as the United States backs Turkey, there is no need to fear any threat from the Soviet fleet.

When the captain hadn't recovered from his contemplation, the first officer's voice interrupted his reverie.

"Reporting Captain, this is important information from Washington, please read it."

Captain Hendlisk took the paper from the first officer's hand, although there were only a few lines of words on it, what was revealed inside surprised him.

"Call the headquarters immediately to confirm the authenticity of the intelligence."

Captain Hendlisk said anxiously, he took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.Because the news revealed in just a few lines is really shocking.

According to intelligence feedback, in response to the threat of the US aircraft carrier, the Soviet Union has dispatched all fighter jets at the air base.Please be careful, Captain Hendrisk.

Chapter 5 Thirty Who Is the Chess Piece

Captain Hendlisk finally got an affirmative reply from the U.S. Navy Command. The fighter jets in the two Soviet air force bases are leaving the military base in Sevastopol and heading towards the Black Sea Fleet.

"Damn it, they actually did this. Aren't the Soviets afraid of a conflict?" Captain Hendlisk cursed. The Stannisk aircraft carrier battle group originally existed as a deterrent of force, not for the purpose of intervening. Black Sea affairs.According to President Mario, the Black Sea was originally a place where Turkey and the Soviet Union wrestled. At most, NATO and the United States would support it behind their backs. Now it is a wrong choice for the United States to use aircraft carrier battle groups to intervene in Black Sea affairs.

The Stannisk aircraft carrier battle group fell into a dilemma.If the US aircraft carrier battle group passes through the Bosporus Strait, it means that the tension in the Black Sea region is heating up.This is not the ending Washington wants to see. In fact, Washington only hopes that the aircraft carrier can be used as a deterrent card to put pressure on the Soviet Union.After suffering losses in the Arabian Sea, the United States no longer wants to confront the Soviet Union head-on.

But now it looks like the exact opposite is happening.When Captain Hendlisk was in a dilemma, he suddenly received a communication from the headquarters. Captain Hendlisk picked up the walkie-talkie and said, "This is the Stanisko aircraft carrier battle group, and I am the Hendlisk ship." long."

The voice on the walkie-talkie was low and hoarse, but the reported identity made Captain Hendlisk hold the walkie-talkie tightly. With absolute command.

"Captain Hendrick, this is President Mario."

The voice on the other end was short and powerful, "Captain Hendlisk, listen carefully. From now on, the US aircraft carrier battle group will stay in the Marmara Sea, do not cross the Bosporus Strait, repeat, do not Across the Bosphorus. We don't need to make things serious. Receive?"

"Got it, but..." Captain Hendlisk hesitated for a moment, "We have an aircraft carrier battle group parked in the Marmara Sea, so we can't justify it. Besides, how can we explain it to the Turkish side?"

An American aircraft carrier battle group stayed in the waters of Turkey and refused to leave. If it were the Turkish military, it would have gone mad.Even President Demirel, who is pro-Western, has such tolerance.

"I will personally discuss this issue with Turkish President Demirel, repeat, do not act without authorization. We are not ready for war."

"I know, President Mario." Captain Hendlisk lost contact. He quickly came back to his senses and issued an order to the first officer beside him, "Immediately issue an order to stop the advance of the Stanisker aircraft carrier."

While everyone in the command room looked at each other, the aircraft carrier battle group slowed down.At the same time, Captain Hendlisk issued an order to the commanders of the destroyer and frigate to stay in the Marmara Sea and prohibit further progress.Although they didn't know why the commander issued such an order, they stopped as instructed.

A high-spirited fleet just stays awkwardly in the Turkish waters, and the huge aircraft carrier battle group looks extremely eye-catching in the Sea of ​​Marmara.But Captain Hendlisk had to obey Washington's orders.

Figure 22 The Backfire bomber formation, the Su-34 bomber formation, and the escorting Su-27 fighter jets formed a three-party drama of this Black Sea confrontation.Regarding the default back garden of the Black Sea, the Soviet fleet didn't care how loud the noise was. As long as the Americans dared to do something, they would really use strategic bombers to approach the opponent's aircraft carrier battle group and force the opponent to leave the Black Sea.

So after issuing an order to the Stanisko aircraft carrier battle group, President Mario immediately called Turkish President Demirel to tell him the seriousness of the situation.

"Now the US fleet will stay in the Marmara waters for 48 to 72 hours. After the tripartite talks between the US, Turkey and the Soviet Union are over, the Stanisker aircraft carrier battle group will withdraw from the Turkish waters." President Mario tried his best to The tone seemed more sincere, hoping to get Demirel's understanding.

"What? Are you going to stay in the Marmara waters for 48 hours?"

Demirel's voice instantly increased several decibels. It was an extremely risky thing to allow the US aircraft carrier battle group to pass through the strait. Now it is necessary to take the risk of letting the US fleet stay longer than he expected, and the military's patience is limited. limited.They will not tolerate such unreasonable demands.

"48 hours until the negotiation with the Soviet Union is completed." President Mario emphasized, "Now our goal has been achieved, and the Black Sea Fleet and Soviet bombers dispatched by the annoyed Soviet Union are not only intimidating Turkey, but the entire Black Sea country. At that time, we will be able to openly establish an anti-missile system alliance in the Black Sea region to deal with the threat from the Soviet Union."

The confrontation in the Black Sea and the arbitration bill are all just bureaus designed by the United States to promote the anti-missile system.As for the final outcome of other countries, Mario doesn't care.

Hearing Mario's reply, Demirel immediately became anxious, "Absolutely not. The US aircraft carrier battle group must either withdraw from the Turkish Strait immediately, or enter the Black Sea through the Turkish Strait. We do not allow US aircraft carriers to stay in Turkish waters."

"Listen to me, listen to me." President Mario replied coldly, "President Demirel, you have to understand one thing. The current Black Sea crisis is not only a problem for Turkey, but also to ensure the security of the entire NATO. Strategic security. As long as we have our aircraft carrier battle group, the Soviet Black Sea Fleet can only dare not cross half a step outside the Turkish waters."

"You will regret doing this," Demirel roared. "This is Turkey, not American territory. You have no right to do this."

"President Demirel, don't forget one thing." Mario said coldly, "We can also conversely collude with the Soviet Union to embezzle Turkey. Don't forget that Turkey is just a pawn in the game of great powers. We are the ones driving the whole thing behind the scenes."

Demirel's anger was extinguished in an instant, and he finally understood Turkey's position in this game. In fact, Demirel could only follow the road paved by the United States from beginning to end.He simply does not have the ability to change everything. He can only follow the American method in order to protect himself.

Chapter 531 Swan in the Sky, Red Death

Figure 22 When the formation of Backfire bombers flew over the Black Sea, what brought the world apart from the shock was more the fear of the powerful Soviet military power.Figure 22 The backfire bomber soars in the blue and white sky like a swan with white wings. Of course, what it carries is not an olive branch of peace, but AS-4 missiles aimed at sea surface ships, especially US aircraft carriers.This kind of thing with a length of 11 meters and a speed of nearly Mach 2.5 is enough to threaten the safety of the Stannisk aircraft carrier battle group.

The Backfire bomber flew over the Black Sea against the setting sun, and its white fuselage was rendered in brilliant golden yellow, like a swan migrating long distances.They are surrounded by Su-27 escorts to ensure the safety of this cover mission.The setting sun shrouded the bomber, almost making people forget that it was a war machine created by the Red Empire. The Grim Reaper soaring in the sky looked more like a work of art.
