Chapter 872: Scorched Earth Policy
Almost desperate news came from Surina and abroad, firstly, that Romania's only destroyer fleet had mutinied, that Captain Antonetasescu had surrendered to the Black Sea Fleet, and that he had turned his guns on the Danube Delta, bombarding the entire port city blockaded by the army with artillery and missiles.

Later, with the assistance of the Soviet fleet, the renegade Romanian fleet soon took control of the port city. Moreover, as the leader of the rebels, Antone Tasescu proposed to overthrow the dictatorship of Constantinescu, release the leader of the Social Democrats, Vojnea, who was imprisoned in the Bucharest prison, dissolve the parliamentary chamber and hold new elections.
Is this a remake of the October Revolution?
Konstantinescu almost couldn't stand on his feet, but he didn't expect that the navy was a bunch of white-eyed wolves who couldn't be fed. But when the second news reached his ears, he fell straight from his seat. Stoyanov actually refused to send troops, and unceremoniously rebelled - siding with the side of the Soviet army, and announced on the spot that he would only be on guard against Turkey. As for what became of Bucharest, and whether Romania fell in the end, it is none other business.
The plot changed too quickly, causing everyone to be surprised. What's going on here?
The US ambassador to Bulgaria asked for a meeting several times, but the result was that he was closed. The other side does not want to talk to the United States on this issue at all.
Only Yanayev breathed a sigh of relief, Bulgaria finally couldn't help but jump back, and the traitors who hid too deeply turned the whole situation upside down. Opportunities are created for stalling time. Turkey was firmly bitten to death by Bulgarian and Greek troops, and Yanayev solved this biggest crisis of Turkey with almost no soldiers. As long as there were two pro-Soviet countries of Eastern Europe (Central Europe), Césaire, who had some scruples, did not dare to do it.
The Eastern European Union turned into a complete joke, and the three Eastern European countries in the nest turned the situation into a torn apart.
German Chancellor Krenz had an attitude of watching the drama from the very beginning, and he never wanted to get involved in the chaotic political situation in Eastern Europe, not to mention that there was an unspeakable deal between Germany and the Soviets, and he did not want to directly turn the other cheeks between Germany and the Soviet Union because of his involvement in the Eastern European Union incident.
Germany was suspected of taking advantage of the situation to provoke the United States and the Soviet Union to fight each other, so the problems of Eastern Europe were not within Krenz's sphere of concern. Whether the Slavs are dead or alive has nothing to do with them. Now it seems that unless the United States intervenes in the events in Eastern Europe on its own, it has absolutely no chance of turning the tables.
Romania's transportation hubs had been bombed by Soviet bombers, and the KGB had infiltrated a range of information about military airfields, armored troop routes, camps, and logistical supplies. They are fighting a war of unilateral transparency of information without fear.
Yanaev, who sat on the other side of the Constantinescu table, saw through all the routines of the Romanian army. When they looked up, the invisible satellite systems had recorded their every move in the database.
Deadend.
Romania has no chance to turn around, the war is only on the third day, Constantinescu feels an unprecedented panic, the bad news continues to return to his desktop, every telegram is shocking, the Soviet army is wantonly eroding them, the ground forces do not seem to have the slightest interest in invading the territory, it is still the huge armored force of the border line to contain the actions of the Romanian tank troops, and the sky air force has the courage to bomb the targets on the ground.
Soldiers are fast.
The grinding and grinding of the NATO coalition forces clearly does not want to get into the troubled waters of Romania. And President Mario is still hesitant to let NATO troops come into direct conflict with the Soviet Airborne Forces. The overwhelming majority of the Congress was opposed to direct confrontation with Soviet force.
After losing the cover of missiles, the strength of the air defense forces with only anti-aircraft guns was stretched, and the Soviet Union used several Su-34 bomber regiments and Su-27 fighters to create explosions and fires at important coordinates in Romania with precision-guided bombs, all in order to force the army and block their advance and create obstacles. When their troops arrived, all they were left with was burning ruins.
"The 13th Motorized Infantry Regiment was wiped out at Galatz, and the Soviets used a large number of bomber formations to carry out artillery fire-covered strikes, resulting in heavy casualties."
"The 34th Tank Brigade was wiped out along the railway line in Slobozia, and every move of our army movement routes was under the surveillance of Soviet satellites, high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft, ground intelligence units and unmanned reconnaissance aircraft."
"The 67th Mechanized Division suffered heavy casualties, they were ambushed by Soviet troops, resulting in the annihilation of the entire army. It was the only army that could reach Romania in two days, and the main transportation routes in other areas were fatally hit by the air force, and it was difficult to reach the capital in the first place. ”
The troops that came to Bucharest from all sides to support were devastated, and it was clear that the Soviets did not want to receive reinforcements before Bucharest was conquered. Basically all the military forces that can be mobilized in the Caucasus and Ukraine have already been mobilized by Yanayev, and Romania will not rest until the last drop of Romanian blood is released.
Grim facts lay in front of Konstantinescu, who did not expect that the Soviets were almost desperate to drag Romania into hell. Now choose either to flee or to give up the presidency in exchange for the cessation of aggression.
Both options literally cost him his life.
Waiver of rights or renunciation of territorial integrity? Konstantinescu felt unprecedented pressure.
In the end, it was not these external factors that brought the camel to the back of Eastern Europe, but the opposition lurking inside, and the war on the front was in full swing, but the Social Democratic Party, which had not been suppressed before, took advantage of the opportunity to incite and inspire the people against the incumbent Romanian president, and put all the blame on Constantinescu.
"Demonstrations have erupted in Bucharest demanding the immediate release of the imprisoned members of the Social Democrats, who are in danger of an armed riot."
After listening to the other people's reports, Konstantinescu only mumbled an unclear um.
"Is it true that time is running out?"
Although I was unwilling, I didn't expect the final outcome to be like this. Originally, he wanted to take the lead in eliminating all the Social Democrats in his cell once and for all, but Constantinescu was afraid that the next counterattack would leave him with no place to bury. Even Bucharest is already embattled, and doing so will only cause trouble.
It seems that the qi is exhausted, and it is difficult to change the pattern even by himself.
"Nope."
He clenched his fists, his dead eyes rejuvenated. He remembered the conversation that US President Mario had with him before, and if he could not retain his position in the end, then the best way was to transfer. Move to a relatively safe area, even if it creates a situation of confrontation between the two regimes, even if it ends up becoming a government-in-exile.
"I can't lose yet, I have the support of the Americans behind me, and even if I want to create a situation of regime confrontation, I will continue to fight."
Thinking of this, Konstantinescu was already ready to move the capital. If the 106th Airborne Division captured Dulaia and posed a mortal threat to Bucharest, then Konstantinescu immediately moved to the northwest to seek help from NATO troops at the first opportunity.
The Soviet army could not be driven out, but at least the seeds of Romania should be preserved.
He dialed his assistant and told him to make a copy of all the data.
When asked about Konstantinescu's intentions, he simply replied.
"Be prepared to move and burn all the important materials if necessary."
"Also, help me connect with the Ministry of Defense and tell them that if the fighters are unfavorable, give me a plan for a scorched earth policy, and even if Bucharest falls, we will not leave them with a finished city." (To be continued.) )
