Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Clerides breathed a sigh of relief that the interference of the US aircraft carrier battle group in the internal affairs of Cyprus meant that even if the Turkish Navy wanted to join the dispute, it would have to weigh its weight. And Cyprus, as a country in a state of civil war, has always maintained a strong armored army. 82 T80 tanks, 52 French AXM30B tanks, 43 BMP3 infantry combat vehicles and 67 Gesar EE-9 Cascadell wheeled reconnaissance vehicles.

Just from the 82 T80 tanks, you can see the open and secret struggle between the Soviet Union and Turkey when they were at loggerheads.

The T80 tank is equipped with two battalions of the Cypriot Army, and the AMX30 tank is equipped with one battalion, and together with infantry fighting vehicles, the overall strength of an armored brigade or mechanized brigade is counted. Cyprus, as a country with a population of less than a million people, has the strength of a mechanized brigade is already the end of the bow. What's more, there is a Turkey behind it, which is thinking of driving the Greeks out of this 9,251 square kilometers at any time.

Turkey has responded to the pressure of the Cypriot armoured forces by supporting the Republic of Northern Cyprus with a large number of anti-tank weapons, and the Turkish military has announced that it will provide asylum to the Turkish regime in Northern Cyprus, and the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus has thus been openly stated.

By the time the Americans clashed with the acting president of Turkey, Clerides knew that his chance to regain Cyprus had come. While the Americans may have a hand behind them, Clerides hopes to bring down the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus in one fell swoop, so that the United States and Turkey can successfully end the divisive pattern before they can react.

"The U.S. Stanisk carrier strike group is still active in the Mediterranean, so if Turkey wants to provide shelter to Cyprus, it has to pass our hurdle." After convincing Clerides, Secretary of State Madeleine added, "Britain will provide air strikes for Cyprus, and then the Cypriot ground forces will only need to retake Northern Cyprus in a short time." ”

"It has to be for a short period of time." Secretary Madeleine stressed that "we cannot provide asylum to Cyprus for a long time. Because it's about the attitude of the Council. ”

The British had two air bases in Cyprus, Akrotili and Dekelia, and the main purpose of the war in Cyprus was to protect the Suez Canal, which had been opened in 1869 and was a necessary link between Britain and India, the largest overseas colony. When Cyprus became independent in 1960, Britain retained the territory of these two small military bases and did not allow them to become independent together.

What's more, Britain now has an old account to settle with Turkey, because when Britain tried to meddle in the affairs of the Turkish Straits in the first place, Turkey chose to refuse. This made the British government very angry. The United States also took the opportunity to persuade the British to use the planes from the Cypriot air base to carry out bombing strikes against the northern regime while the United States paid the bill.

"Of course I do, Secretary Madeleine." Clarrides plucked up the courage to ask, "But doesn't the American side arrange military assistance?" ”

"Military aid?" Madeleine paused for a moment, the United States to provide an aircraft carrier battle group for shelter in Cyprus is already the bottom line. If military assistance were to be provided to Cyprus, it would be tantamount to the loss of a NATO member. Washington, for its part, also does not want to push Turkey too hard and eventually lose an ally.

"But don't forget that there are also the Greeks, who will provide you with military assistance." "This is your war, Clerides, and the United States can only do the icing on the cake in solidarity, and will not be too involved," Madeleine stressed. ”

Madeleine also has her own thoughts in her heart, the United States does not want to lose Turkey, as long as Maziel submits or changes to a pro-American leader, then the United States will only turn a blind eye to everything that happens in Cyprus.

"I see, Secretary Madeleine. Then the Cypriot Army will complete its combat readiness in the shortest possible time and directly carry out surprise attacks on important cities of the northern regime. Clerides said.

Just a few days after Madeleine left Cyprus, the evacuated U.S. aircraft carrier battle group returned to the Aegean Sea, this time with a mission not to protect Turkey, but to stay in the Cyprus region. When the first Perry-class destroyer to be aided by the United States arrived at the Greek naval port, Greek President Stephanopoulos could not wait to affirm that Greece had unrequited sovereignty over the boundary line of sea power, and Turkey did not want to get involved.

Madeleine has succeeded in sowing the seeds of hatred in Greece and Cyprus, waiting for the conspiracy to brew and sprout. Of course, the Turkish side is also on the verge of a great enemy, and Mazyeer was already nervous when he heard that the US Secretary of State was visiting Greece, and as a sworn enemy of the United States, he also took over eight decommissioned American ships, and even Mazyeer doubted whether Greece's military strength could afford such a huge fleet.

If the US visit to Turkey is not a major event, then the US visit to Cyprus has already stirred Turkey's nerves. For Turkey, which is expanding its influence toward Cyprus, the American visit is like a sword hanging over Turkey's head, and it is then that he finally begins to pay attention to the movements of the United States.

"What are the Americans thinking about the Stanisk aircraft carrier battle group, which had already left the Mediterranean, after the US Secretary of State's visit to Cyprus?"

Maziel was savoring his breakfast while he was busy flipping through the newspaper with the other. The headline in the newspapers was a military visit by a US aircraft carrier strike group to Greece, but in the sensitive Aegean Sea region, there seems to be a special layer of meaning behind such an ordinary military visit.

"The Greek president has just made a statement on the preservation of the territorial integrity of Greece, and after the US visit to Cyprus, Clerides has been quiet, not at all like a sense of preparing for retaliation, what is the US brewing?"

Mazier's preliminary judgment is that the United States will make a fuss about the dispute over the islands between Turkey and Greece, and that the Americans will not use this trick for a day or two. Almost all countries that are hostile to the United States have learned this way of killing people with a knife. Therefore, Mazyel is also actively mobilizing troops to go to the west coast of Turkey under the banner of exercises to protect the coastline of Turkey. Then the Navy conducted patrols in the waters of the disputed islands to prevent the landing of Greek troops.

There are also people in the military who think that the United States will make a fuss about Cyprus, but Maziel thinks that this is less likely, and the Americans have not yet broken with Turkey to such a point. If they intervene in the Cypriot civil war, then the United States will lose a NATO ally. Moreover, Turkey is still entrenched in key strait positions, and the United States is not stupid enough to do so.

If they really want to intervene in Cyprus, then the American aircraft carriers at this time will not stay in Greek ports.

Mazier's consideration is that the conflict situation in the Aegean Sea will intensify.

Maziel flipped through another page of the newspaper and an inconspicuous piece of news in the corner caught his attention. It was about the news of the coverage of the British air base in Cyprus, which, after the Libyan civil war, had little presence, became the main force in the fight against the Libyan government forces. But the news left Maziel wondering. This is the news of the introduction of new fighter jets in Cyprus, which will be deployed at the Cyprus Air Base and will become the backbone of Cyprus.

Mazier's confusion was that the number of British warplanes bombing Libya was already saturated, and there was no need to deploy new aircraft.

Isn't it an operation against Libya?

What if the aircraft carrier battle group stuck in the Greek port is just refueling?

Thinking of this, the fork in Maziel's hand suddenly fell to the ground, his glasses widened, and the newspaper in his hand was deformed because he was too forced. He roared and said, "Damn, I didn't expect the Americans to use a policy of attacking the west!" ”

"Their target is the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus!" (To be continued.) )
