"We just need to ease the arguments, and do not need to publish information that is opposed to the West, and make a world of life?20?? It's enough to be calm and the situation is very good. Once something happens in Southeast Asia, the biggest suspect is not our Soviet Union. But another country that is geographically closer." At this time, the Soviet Union still needs to gain time to complete its layout in Africa as soon as possible. Therefore, we must be deaf and dumb about the situation in Southeast Asia. Anyway, there is a country that calls for overthrowing imperialism much louder than the Soviet Union. Compared with the two, we can leave enough preparation time for the Soviet Union.

Golinov and Meshatsev understood what to do and continued to praise the arguments. After Moscow and Leningrad Selepin were lost one after another, both of them were more careful in their work in the propaganda system, and no problems had occurred so far.

"We must come up with a reason to intervene in Africa, which must be accepted by Africans. Otherwise, according to the General Secretary's idea, once the Cuban army appears from Africa, the military color will be too strong." Andropov said hesitantly.

This is a problem. Even if the Cuban army intervenes, the expansion intention is too obvious. So find a suitable reason, at least a reason that black Africans must be easily accepted, otherwise their international image will have an impact. This reason is now ready-made, which is to oppose the Portuguese colonists and destroy this empire that has never given up on the colonial policy.

But Selov knew that Portugal was not big after all, and if I remember correctly, I would not be able to withstand how long the Soviet Union would take. This reason would not take long. If the United States did not confront the Soviet Union head-on, it would definitely use the CIA to cause trouble for the Soviet Union. If the war was not decided for a few years, the local blacks would definitely be dissatisfied.

"Oppose the colonists first. If Portugal cannot withstand it, just point the finger at South Africa and Zimbabwe, two countries. Both countries are white and most of them are black, so it is easy to gain the support of blacks. If we want to gain support from blacks for a long time, we must clearly express our determination to kill the local white regime. The CIA will definitely cause trouble for us." Shelov thought for a moment, "Has the Central Liaison Department's funds been in place?"

"Just wait for the KGB personnel, Ustinov's side is not a problem." Andropov nodded.

"Don't worry, since the strategy has been decided, we are just waiting for the opportunity. Now we are fighting head-on with the United States, rather than being as small as before. Both the cadres and the people have been waiting for too long. Without making any achievements, the people's patience will be wiped out." As he spoke, Selov put on a blue hat. He still has something to do, so he can't stay at Andropov for how long.

What the United States least wants to see appears after a long fermentation. No country in Southeast Asia is truly peaceful. Except for Malaysia, where the US military is heavily stationed, it seems that all other countries have entered a quasi-civil war. The total number of armed organizations in Southeast Asia is 300,000 to 400,000 people, covering the Philippines, the Southeast Peninsula and the Southeast Asian Islands. From the end of the year to January 1974, in more than a month, more than 40 armed attacks broke out in various countries, with more than 1,000 people fighting fiercely every day.

The battles were spread across Myanmar, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, the Philippines, and the United States found that it could no longer control the security here. Secretary of State Kissinger quickly flew to Southeast Asia and signed agreements with governments of various countries to put out the attack.

Compared with the United States' anxious and incensing, the Soviet Union was much more moderate. Foreign Minister Gromiko refuted the United States' actions to accuse the Soviet Union, saying that the Soviet Union did not directly interfere in the revolutionary wave in Southeast Asia, but was happy to see development. On the contrary, the United States has made such a big move and commanded troops from various countries to suppress the people, which is very irrational. Both sides should resolve the problem through negotiations. Strong suppression will only achieve counterproductive results. Vietnam is the most obvious example.

"That's it? It's not a big deal. I'll do it next time. Don't forget the agreement we and the United States have just jointly adopted at the United Nations. The United States has agreed to our actions. The United States belongs to Japan and the United States belongs to South Korea. They want to reason with us. Throw their letters of protest and ignore them." After hearing the words of Kibannov, Director of the State Administration of Transportation Administration, Selov looked indifferent and asked the Far East Frontier Defense Force to handle it themselves.

The matter is actually very simple. The South Korean Coast Guard fired the Soviet marine monitoring ship, and then the Soviet marine monitoring ship fired torpedoes and sunk the blocked South Korean Coast Guard ship. The Pacific Fleet in Vladivostok is currently dispatched using the waterways opened by the icebreaker to transport the Soviet marine monitoring ship back.

"Will it cause a diplomatic incident? After all, we sank the other party's official ship." Kibanov hesitated.

"It's better to teach them a lesson. In the future, the countries along the coast should know that some of our non-warship ships also have torpedoes. Isn't that great?" Selov fiddled with his fingers and said, "Send the information of the crew that launched the torpedoes to the Central Presidium. The Supreme Soviet Chairman will award him the medal. By the way, we have to wait for President Xie Lieping to come back, even if we make a statement."

This is simply a small matter. At least Selov believes that this is the case. Even if it is a UN South Korea, it will not be reasonable, and you don’t see who is the permanent member. You can reason with it. In this case, there is another option. South Korea can be used to annihilate the Soviet Pacific Fleet if they have the courage.

At the meeting that just ended at the United Nations, the Soviet Union and the United States reached certain compromises. In the negotiations held in recent days on the Amended Single Consultative Text, the Soviet Union made the so-called distinction between scientific research related to resources and irrelevant. The United States openly demanded that the important clause "the marine scientific research in economic zones or on the continental shelf must be deducted in accordance with the provisions of this Convention", and even threatened to express: If not, it will not participate in the Convention on the Law of the Sea. Representatives of more than 30 countries including Tanzania, Nia, Brazil, Iran, Turkish, Nice, Egypt, Yugoslavia and other countries firmly advocated the reservation of this clause in their speeches.

Representatives of some small and medium-sized countries also requested further clarification: coastal countries have exclusive rights to marine scientific research conducted in their territorial waters, economic zones and on the continental shelf, and foreign countries must obtain the consent of coastal countries in advance for scientific research activities.

Representatives from Ecuador, Madagascar, Trinidad and Tobago, Cameroon, Somalia and other countries have also requested that the text be deleted and weakened the jurisdiction of coastal countries, and stipulated that coastal countries must not refuse to agree to certain marine scientific research programs. With such huge opposition, the Soviet Union and the United States had to bear the pain and did not sign the International Convention on the Law of the Sea, throwing this Convention away as toilet paper, and continuing to do their own things.

Of course, the Soviet Union's move made condemnation of social imperialism more frequently, but all signals and information were blocked by the Eighth General Administration of the KGB. If people like to say it, just say it. This kind of accusation has no reason. Many of the Soviet Union's policies have also been done thirty or forty years later. Since a great country has done it, even if a great country does it, only Selov himself knows about it, and he can still find a moral foothold.

"I understand, Chairman." Lieutenant General Kibanov, Director of the State Administration of Transportation Administration, nodded and went down.

"Just understand, the country's maritime strategy and security strategy are consistent. Whoever opposes is the enemy, without exception. Don't be shaken by some criticism." Selov nodded and pushed the document back.

He had something else, such as going to the Baltic Shipyard to inspect and preside over the formal construction of the Kirov-class strategic cruiser. After ten hours of train, Selov came to the shipyard. The huge machinery was under intense construction, and the entire shipyard was showing a busy attitude. The first Kirov-class strategic cruiser was started here.

After several modifications, the drawings of the Kirov-class strategic cruiser were finally frozen in the 28,000-ton design. As the flagship of the Soviet Red Navy, it can be said that they were highly expected by the top leaders of the Soviet Union. It can be said that they were larger than the original history, which is normal, because the Soviet Union's environment and national strength are greater than in history, and of course the expectations are higher.

The power system is hybrid, with 2 nuclear reactors and 4 steam turbines installed, that is, parallel-operated nuclear power units and steam power units are used to drive two pairs of four-blade propellers. The steam turbine can work independently when the nuclear reactor cannot work to ensure that the warship will not lose power and lose mobility in case of situations. The steam turbine is used to add saturated steam to the turbine when traveling at high speed, increasing the shaft horsepower to make the speed reach more than 32 knots. When using boiler assisted operation, the ship speed is 14 knots.

But this is temporary. Selov absolutely believes in this. In the second phase of the future, the steam turbine must be eliminated, so that he can become a real nuclear-powered cruiser, save more space and install larger missiles. Maybe also need to install cruise missiles. In a solemn atmosphere, he announced to the microphone that the 1144 cruiser was officially started.

"This will be a day to be remembered, and the Soviet dream of the ocean will set sail from here. We will not only become a land power, but also a sea power. What kind of equipment our Red Navy soldiers will have depends entirely on you." In the low temperature around zero, Selov shouted to the workers of the Baltic shipyard.
