(Catch the tail of the morning, send out the second update of this chapter)

Although Yanayev took fixed-wing aircraft courses in his youth and obtained a pilot's license, this does not mean that he can play with the Backfire bomber, which looks like a powerful bomber but is actually really powerful. Moreover, in order to ensure the safety of the president, the flight of the Backfire did not carry the "kitchen" or "kingfish" air-to-surface missiles.

When taking off from Nakhodka, there were two Su-27s to escort it, after all, it was the supreme leader on board, in case there were three long and two short, the Air Force would not escape the blame, maybe some people would blame Yanayev for why he had a political catwalk that cost people money and money, but for him, opportunities are often accompanied by danger.

Looking down from the side window, they were far away from the land, and the sunset on the left had not yet completely set, and the golden light shrouded the backfire's fuselage, rendering him a brilliant golden yellow, like an angel accompanying God, spreading his white wings, punishing evil and filthy enemies with bauhinia and spears.

When he flew to the South Kuril Islands, it was already night, and through the glass window, Yanayev found that the sea was pitch black, and only a silver moon rising in mid-air sprinkled the gentle moonlight on the fuselages of the two Su-27 fighters on his side, shining brightly.

"Your Excellency the President, we will soon be in the South Kuril Islands." The pilot turned his head to Yanaev, a look of unease on his face, vaguely worried about what the flight might lead to.

Yanayev nodded at him, "Thank you, boys. Then he continued to wait quietly for the Japanese to appear.

In the 1956 Soviet-Japanese Joint Declaration, the Soviet Union agreed to return the islands of Hamai and Shikotan to Japan after the conclusion of a peace treaty, in exchange for a peace agreement with Japan. However, due to the obstruction of the United States and Japan's insistence on the return of the four islands, the 1956 treaty was not implemented. Until now, the Japanese still want to take back the four northern islands from the Soviet Union, and Yanayev was the first to disagree. Moreover, according to Soviet tradition, as long as a Japanese dared to cross the border, whether he was a fisherman or a soldier, the Soviet Navy had the right to shoot him directly, without ambiguity. In any case, I have not signed a peace agreement with you, and your crossing of the border is tantamount to a violation of territorial rights in my eyes.

"Your Excellency, why are these four islands so important to us? No matter how you look at him, he is in a disadvantageous geographical position. One of the pilots asked, confused.

"Oh?" The pilot's words brought Yanayev back to reality from his contemplation, he thought for a moment and replied to him in a simple and understandable way, "The total area of these four islands is 4,996 square kilometers. Not only is the strategic position very important, but also has abundant resources, the continental shelf gas reserves are about 1.6 billion tons, gold reserves are about 1,867 tons, silver 9,284 tons, iron 273 million tons, sulfur 117 million tons. In addition, the island is also rich in rhenium, which is more valuable than gold, with reserves of up to 36 tons. Although Hamai and Shikotan are small, the nearby continental shelf is rich in seafood, with an annual production of about 800,000 tons. According to Soviet experts, the total value of the resources of the four islands and the continental shelf amounted to $45.8 billion. ”

"So, do you think we're going to give up on something so important?" "And Japan can't be full of wings, these guys are inadequate moths, and if they choose to compromise in some areas, they will be even more aggressive." Therefore, if the Japanese want to take back the four northern islands, they can tear up the armistice agreement with us if they have the ability. ”

"What if he really wants to do that?" Pilot Vasily asked uneasily.

Yanayev stretched his waist and said nonchalantly, "If you really want to do this, every inch of South Korea and Japan will be planted with red flags symbolizing communism." ”

When the Backfire bombers approached Hokkaido's airspace, the Japanese Air Force Self-Defense Force, which reacted from the radar, urgently dispatched two F16 fighters to intercept them, and reported the information to the director of the Defense Agency, Gen Nakatani, as quickly as possible. When the director of the Defense Agency, who had just finished the state banquet and was about to go home, received this news, he was shocked and hurriedly went to the prime minister to discuss countermeasures.

When he learned that the prime minister was discussing the land issue with the prime minister of the Soviet Union, Nakatani could only ask others to relay the news to the prime minister, because he did not want to bump into the embarrassing scene.

The emergency situation in Hokkaido continued to ferment, but in fact Japan did not dare to provoke the Soviet Union at all, and the painful lessons of the Nomenkan and the Kwantung Army in memory made the ambitious Rising Sun Empire know that its northern neighbor was not a good target to provoke. And it is already thankful that the Soviet bear did not provoke Japan, but now the prime minister is once again facing the danger that the cease-fire agreement may be torn up because of the problem of the four northern islands.

The pilot of the Japanese F16 fighter sent a message to the pilot of the Backfire bomber, "Unidentified aircraft, please identify yourself and leave this airspace, this is Japan's inherent territory, please leave the airspace for unidentified aircraft." Repeat, please leave the airspace with an unknown extension, otherwise we will shoot down. Repeat, otherwise we will shoot down. ”

"Your Excellency, what to do, they have already issued a shot down warning." Vasily said uneasily, and the other pilots also looked at Yanayev, as if he was the supreme commander of the bomber.

But Yanayev still sat calmly in his position, and replied to him confidently, "You tell him that this is the South Kuril Islands of the Soviet Union, which belongs to the South Kurilsk County of Sakhalin Oblast, and if the other party dares to do anything to threaten the Soviet aircraft, our escort Su-27 will never let go." By the way, one last sentence, the supreme leaders of the Soviets are now on this Backfire bomber, and if they dare to intercept it, it is equivalent to unilaterally tearing up the ceasefire agreement with the USSR. ”

The pilot replied these words word for word to the Japanese pilot of the F16 fighter, and because he was so nervous, he said that the South Kuril Islands of the Soviet Union became the Japanese archipelago of the Soviet Union. This innocuous slip of the tongue frightened the Japanese pilots, who mistakenly thought it was a prelude to the other side's war.

Yanayev had long anticipated Japan's reaction, and now the Soviet Union was heavily armed, desperate poor madmen. Japan's economy is booming day by day, and it is destined not to dare to have any conflict with itself. Otherwise, if you send the economy back to the early days of the Second World War, you may directly turn the capitalist countries into socialist unions.

In such an awkward confrontation between the two sides, Yanayev repeatedly reassured the pilot not to be nervous, if he pressed the wrong launch button, it would be a big problem, and you should take a trip to Hokkaido.

So there was an interesting scene in the night sky, a backfire bomber led two Su-27 fighters to fly unscrupulously over the territory close to Japan, while two F16 fighters behind them helplessly followed their butts.

"What to do, Director Nakatani. If they really want to open fire on the other side, I am afraid that it will not cause a diplomatic dispute. The head of the Air Self-Defense Force of the Defense Agency retold the Soviet pilot's words to Director Gen Nakatani as they were, and then looked at the other party with an embarrassed expression.

Nakatani Gen held the piece of paper, and his mood couldn't calm down for a long time. It is also clear that the Soviet Union, which was able to push the European countries in a few weeks, faced Japan, which had only a few islands, and it was a foregone conclusion that whoever would win or lose. The only way now is to ask the United States for help, but as long as the Soviet Union does not really attack Japan, then they will not care about this kind of thing that makes the Japanese government lose face.

The current situation is equivalent to putting a militarily weak Japan directly against the most powerful war empire, and everyone will watch with pity as he is humiliated by the Soviet Union, and then look at the nose and nose and pretend not to see, but will not lend a helping hand or issue a statement condemning the support. Perhaps the United Nations will pretend to mediate after losing face, but by then it will no longer be able to suppress the resentment of the people at home.

Asking for help from the Republic's neighbors to the west? Forget it, people are now at odds with the Soviet Union, and relations are rapidly warming up. It's also a nose of gray, roll up your sleeves and watch the lively attitude. At this moment, Nakatani Gencai tasted how ridiculous it is for a country without strong military and political support to seek the position of a great power.

"It would be nice if we could abolish civilian-military rule and abolish the unequal treaties around our necks." Gen Nakatani, who was not yet old, sighed, and for the first time the idea of wanting to abolish these shackles was derived in his heart.
