    War is not an end, but a means. This is the difference between military strategists and politicians.

    To build the Arab world into the most powerful alliance in the world, this road has a long and long way to go.

    Just on July 5, when fighting was going on in the Middle East, serious turmoil also occurred in the Soviet Union in the north.

    On July 5, 1992, Soviet Vice President Yanayev issued an order announcing that Soviet President Gorbachev was no longer able to perform the duties of the President due to health reasons, and that he would act as President from that day forward.  At the same time, the National Emergency Committee was announced to exercise all state powers and implement a six-month state of emergency in some areas of the Soviet Union.

    This National Emergency Committee is composed of staunch Soviet Bolsheviks, Vice President Yanayev, Prime Minister Pavlov, First Vice Chairman of the National Defense Council Baklanov, Defense Minister Yazov, Interior Minister Pugo,  Eight people including Chairman of the National Security Council Kryuchkov jointly planned this action and issued a "Message to the People of the Soviet Union", saying that the reform policy advocated by Gorbachev had reached a dead end and the country was in an extremely dangerous moment.  .

    No one knew what happened. Only Kusai, who got the news while commanding the battle, knew that this meant that the Soviet Union was about to disintegrate.

    If at this time, a powerful elder can stand up and rely on his prestige to quickly integrate national power and unify people's hearts, then their action to save the fate of the country may still succeed.

    Including the armed forces they secretly cultivated, which are composed of outstanding fighters all selected from retired personnel, as long as they enter Moscow and arrest those who have been carrying out separatist activities, then this coup is completely possible.  successful.

    However, they did not do this. These people were not people who had gone through the war and lacked a core bone. However, at this time, Ye Litie began his counterattack.

    President Yeltsin of the Russian Federation refused to obey the order of the Emergency Committee and called a political strike to protest the actions initiated by Yanayev and others.

    Due to the indecision of the Emergency Committee, they lost their best opportunity. On the contrary, it gave Yelitie a new opportunity.

    Yelitie issued a statement that he began to take over the armed forces in Russia and declared that all orders issued by Soviet Defense Minister Yazov after July 1 were invalid.  Soviet troops and KGB troops deployed in Russia were ordered to stay put, and all troops who left their original locations must return immediately.

    Yelitie appointed his close confidant Major General Shcherbakov as commander of the Leningrad Military District.

    Afterwards, Moscow Mayor Bo*v and Leningrad Mayor Sobchak openly opposed the National Emergency Committee and supported Yelitie.

    Some soldiers began to defect.  On July 15, the "Alfa" team refused to execute the orders of the directly subordinate KGB and died.  Commanders of most of the divisions stationed around Moscow refused to move.  The Far East Soviet troops stationed in Sakhalin, Kamchatka and other places expressed support for the Russian president.

    Ye Litie finally reached out to the most important military field, and he began to control the army in Russia!  If you want to truly become the president of Russia and control the army, this is the most important step.

    On July 20, the coup failed. The leaders of the coup were arrested and some committed suicide.

    On the day Gorbachev returned to Moscow, he issued a statement on Soviet television, praising Yeltie and others for their correct response in this incident. They are the heroes of the Soviet people.

    As a result, Ye Litie's reputation has greatly increased.

    After taking control of the army, Yeltie signed a presidential decree to take over a series of powers belonging to the central fiscal and financial departments in Russia, including the precious metal production sector. The Central Bank of Russia took over the State Bank of the Soviet Union and the Foreign Economic Bank.  , his wings finally became full.

    Under the overthrow of the nest, the eggs were intact. Finally, the union republics began to declare independence one after another, and the Soviet Union's building completely collapsed.

    Yeltie carried out the final blow. On August 15, the leaders of Russia, Ukraine and Belarus met in Minsk, the capital of Belarus, behind Gorbachev's back and jointly signed the "**  The "Commonwealth of States", within their borders, no longer recognizes the Soviet Union, which ceases to exist as a subject of international law and as a geopolitical reality!

    Later, the leaders of Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Turkmenistan issued a statement on August 20, expressing their willingness to become equal founders of the Commonwealth of Nations.

    On October 1, 1992, Yelitie held his last meeting with Gorbachev. Gorbachev handed over the supreme command of the Soviet armed forces, including the most important??The "nuclear button".

    At night, the sickle and ax flag slowly fell from the Kremlin flagpole, and the Russian flag was hoisted. It witnessed a historic moment. As the most powerful country in the world, the Soviet Union has  Completely disintegrated!

    Although there were some armed struggles during this process, on the whole, peace was still the mainstream. A powerful country was not defeated by the US imperialism, but eventually perished in the hands of its own people.

    Kusai did not have time to lament the collapse of the Soviet Union Building. His appearance allowed this dilapidated house to persist for nearly a year, but it still did not allow it to continue to exist.

    Because, although Kusai has traveled through time, he is not a god and does not have enough divine power to change everything. It is determined by God's will.

    However, what Kusai can do is to help many projects that were aborted due to the disintegration of the Soviet Union and to continue to develop many of the huge military technologies left by the Soviet Union!

    You must know that since 1985, the Soviet Union has been borrowing money to survive. Up to now, the Soviet Union has owed a lot of debt. Although the Soviet Union has disintegrated, these debts still have to be repaid by the various republics.

    In order to solve these economic problems, the newly established Russia took the simplest way to devalue its currency!  As a result, within a few years, the money in the bank was worthless and the former millionaire became a pauper.

    "However, Kusay knows that he will never be able to snatch away the various military industries in Russia. However, it is easier to say about other republics.  For example, the most important thing is Ukraine!

    All along, Qusay¡¯s arrangements in the Soviet republics have begun to work.

    The biting cold wind blew across the entire Black Sea Shipyard, blowing on the large aircraft carrier that had been formed on the slipway. On the outfitting dock next to it, the aircraft carrier that was almost completing its outfitting task was also blowing on it.  Suffering from the same cold wind.

    The entire project has come to a halt. After the incident on July 5, the entire shipyard fell into a state of shutdown. At this time, the Varyag, which was already in the outfitting state, had completed the entire construction project.  80%. If there are sufficient funds, after another year of outfitting and half a year of sea trials, you can enter the navy and serve in the navy after one and a half years.

    It¡¯s a pity, which country¡¯s navy will it serve in?  The Soviet Union has disappeared, Ukraine has collapsed, and Ukraine has inherited all the Soviet industries in Ukraine, including these maritime giants.

    However, for Ukraine, their national defense policy is destined to have absolutely no need for such far-sea offensive weapons. For Ukraine, this is absolutely useless.

    Of all the CIS countries, only Russia has such an idea.

    In a villa not far from the shipyard, Makarov, the director of the shipyard, spends his days sitting on the balcony of his villa, looking at these powerful symbols of the red empire. The aircraft carrier is now alone on the dock.  I spent the day feeling extremely depressed.

    That great country has disappeared.

    Just two days ago, the Varyag ushered in a turning point in its fate.

    Makarov hurriedly came to the aircraft carrier, accompanied by several important figures, including Russian Prime Minister Chernomyrdin, Navy Commander Gromov, and Ukrainian Prime Minister Kuchma.

    Stepping onto the deck of the Varyag, feeling the powerful combat effectiveness of this aircraft carrier, Makarov once again ignited his glory. For him, this is his career, whether it is after construction or handed over to the Soviet Union.  It is still Russia now. As long as it can be built, it is his dream.

    ¡°We will pay the remaining 20 percent of the purchase price until it is built,¡± Gromov said.

    Hearing this, Kuchma¡¯s face changed slightly. Listening to their tone, it means that the Varyag, which is now 80% complete in Ukraine, is all Russian?  They just want to pay 20% of the subsequent construction costs and then take the warship away. How is this possible?  This warship, according to the original agreement, should all belong to Ukraine!

    ¡°Then, you have to pay the remaining 80% of the cost.¡± Kuchma said.

    "No, no, no, this warship was originally built for the Pacific Fleet, so it should belong to our Russian Navy." Gromov said: "We have now released the follow-up funds. There are so many workers in the shipyard  That¡¯s a year¡¯s worth of work, and when it¡¯s finished and we drive away, the space here will be freed up, isn¡¯t it great?¡±

    "No! This warship is in our territory in Ukraine, and now it belongs to meOur Ukrainian steel, even if we sell it at the price of scrap steel, is enough to pay our shipyard workers for a year.  " Kuchma said.

    The two sides were arguing fiercely. They were already considered important people, but they were like an old lady buying vegetables at the vegetable market. They were haggling over the price and still had the urge to fight.

    "The Varyag will never be completed." Makarov added rudely.

    "In order to complete the aircraft carrier, what does the factory need?" Gromov asked puzzledly. Now, the project has progressed to 80%, how can it not be completed?

    "Only a powerful country can build it, but this powerful country no longer exists." After saying that, Makarov had already strode away from the deck of the Varyag.  (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!)
