Chapter 642: Tricked Up
The third more
Rumors of the Kremlin's imminent peace talks with the Americans have always affected General Troshev, who is fighting on the front, especially when he received an order from Moscow to suspend the offensive for an hour, and Troshev was very dissatisfied. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Every minute on the battlefield represents the key, and once the Soviet army unilaterally stops fighting, it will not be able to resist the crazy counterattack of the other side.
However, it is also surprising that just after the order of the Soviet army was issued, the Georgian side actually announced a suspension of the war, and both sides entered a brief truce.
It's just that the Georgian side did not know that the Soviet army was only a truce for an hour, and the Soviet Union used this hour to paralyze the psychology of the other side and actively prepare for the next round of offensive. By the time the second hand turns to the last second, the Soviets will launch a stormy attack on the unprepared Georgian army.
The command was not idle, but was actively mobilizing the troops to prepare for the final blow.
Soon the time entered the final countdown, and when Troshev stared at the electronic screen and turned to zero, he immediately signaled the attack to the various division headquarters. It is important to conquer Tbilisi within these two days and deal with the last threat.
A bloody battle will begin, the originally silent position was suddenly bombarded by the Soviet army's stormy rockets, the Georgian rebels originally thought that the Soviet army had ended the battle, but only an hour later, the Georgian rebels were covered with heavy casualties under artillery fire.
Georgia, while cursing the bastards of the Soviet troops, picked up a rifle and fought back. The battlefield, which had not been quiet for long, began to fill the air again.
Similarly, the leaders of Tbilisi have not been able to catch their breath and have to face the terrible situation again.
Sitting cross-legged in his office, Gorbachev had received news of a Soviet ceasefire an hour earlier, and realizing that the United States might have reached some political agreement with Moscow, ordered the Georgian rebels to stop resisting.
On a rare calm night, Gorbachev did not know how long he had been sleepless under the sound of artillery fire.
He now hopes that the United States can mediate relations with the Soviet Union, and it is better to keep Georgia or Tbilisi, and if it is not good, he can use a day or two to escape from Georgia by car.
No matter how you look at it, Gorbachev is the ultimate winner.
But he forgot one thing, Yanayev's position on the matter of safeguarding sovereign and territorial integrity was so firm that no one could shake it.
At this moment there was a sharp knock at the door, and Gorbachev came back from his deep thought and whispered to please come in.
Minashvili anxiously pushed open the door and said to Gorbachev, "The Soviet offensive has only stopped for an hour, and they have resumed the artillery offensive." Our troops were hit unprepared and suffered heavy losses. Moreover, according to the reports of the troops at the front, a Soviet motorized infantry brigade took advantage of the truce to quickly bypass the city of Gori and move in the direction of Tbilisi. President Gorbachev, we were played by the USSR and the USA! They didn't have any peace negotiations at all, it's all a conspiracy! ”
"What?" Gorbachev stood up abruptly from his seat, apparently not believing Minashvili's words at all, after all, the United States had promised to help Gorbachev buy time.
At this time, the sky in the distance began to brighten, and countless rockets roared in the direction of Tbilisi like a meteor shower, and the temporary calm was broken. Gorbachev looked at the firelight and clenched his heart.
Minashvili explained, "I'm afraid all this is a plot that the Soviets have already devised to pretend to negotiate with the Americans, and then suddenly start a war at the moment when both sides think they are entering a truce, so that they can break through our defenses with a swift assault, which is really a surprise!" ”
Minashvili was a little helpless, Troshev is really a general, and this sentence is very accurate.
"What are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and organize the army to counterattack back." Gorbachev said anxiously, remembering that a motorized infantry brigade was approaching in his direction, Gorbachev was a little afraid. Unexpectedly, his "presidential palace" became a front-line target in just two days.
"The army is now counterattacking, but the enemy is too well prepared, and they have been planning for this surprise attack for a long time. We can only do our best to stop the enemy's advance, but I suggest that General Secretary Gorbachev prepare as soon as possible and prepare for the withdrawal from Tbilisi. Minashvili speculated, "This time Tbilisi may fall, and we must send you out of this hellish place before Tbilisi falls." ”
Minashvili feared that once Gorbachev was arrested, the unrest in the Caucasus would be completely over.
I'm afraid that even Berger Advisor didn't realize that he had been tricked once, and just as he came out of the conference room full of joy, a bad news reached his ears. The Soviets did not end the war in a short time, as he had imagined, but after an hour of armistice, the order to attack was renewed to the army.
Looking at the embarrassed look of his assistant, Berger glanced at Pavlov with a smiling expression next to him, and asked him in a serious tone, "The war in Georgia has started again, I want to know what's going on, Pavlov?" Premier? ”
"Yes, we launched a new offensive and are ready to take all of Tbilisi in one fell swoop. The army in Tbilisi is no longer able to hold out, and we can complete the offensive in two days and break up the rebel forces. Pavlov admitted this very honestly, but the smile on his face slowly retracted and replaced it with the expression of a politician.
Bland, sane, indifferent.
"But our previous negotiation ......" Adviser Berger originally wanted to question Pavlov, but was strongly retorted by the other party, "Adviser Berger, you should think carefully about how we could give up Georgia." ”
Pavlov's implication is that we will break our promises, and you will be able to beat me?
"The Caucasus is as important to us as Washington is to the United States, will you give up on Washington? I think the answer is definitely no. So we will not give up Georgia either, just as the United States will not give up Washington. Anyone who wants to get independent from the Caucasus must first step over my corpse, from the corpse of the million-strong Soviet army! ”
Pavlov looked at the pale face of the US National Security Adviser and said coldly, "Now do you have any other questions about the offensive of the Soviet troops?" (To be continued.) )
