Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    There were voices in Russia denouncing the "treasonous and separatist" Far Eastern Republic and Siberian Republic. However, Yeltsin did not make the mistake of being aggressive. After all, both Novozlov and Yankov had powerful armies in their hands, and even  With nuclear weapons in hand, the consequences of any rash action are likely to be catastrophic.

    Because of Novozlov and Yankov's sabotage, the union republics were no longer interested in discussing the "new alliance" with Russia. In fact, even Yeltsin himself had no intention of establishing a new Soviet Union, but mainly promoted  In this matter, Nazarbayev also received instructions from Qi Yiming and stopped maintaining ties with the Soviet Union. Finally, he held a political meeting in Novo Ogaryovo. The main content of the negotiations was how to carve up the huge land left by the Soviet Union.  Family wealth.

    Regarding a series of issues such as currency, economy, infrastructure, and state-owned enterprises, Yeltsin chose to make full concessions to the republics, but there was one thing he insisted on, which was to take back the military power in these countries.  Of course, countries such as Ukraine and Kazakhstan have a large number of Soviet troops stationed in them and store a large amount of Soviet equipment. However, they also have their own national defense missions and cannot just hand them over to Russia casually.

    After all, the national secession crisis facing Russia has nothing to do with Ukraine, Belarus and other countries. We are now sovereign and independent countries, and we no longer have the responsibility to worry about Russia¡¯s family affairs.

    With Yeltsin¡¯s vigorous mediation and exchange of interests, some republics were willing to transfer some integrated troops and equipment back to the Russian army.  Ukraine took over a military district within its jurisdiction: the Kiev Military District, the Odessa Military District and the Carpathian Military District, with a total of 67,000 troops. However, in exchange for Yeltsin, it agreed to return nearly 80,000 troops. These forces  Mainly ground troops, they also carry a lot of equipment, which can be regarded as a shot in the arm for Yeltsin, who is currently short of major generals.

    The Belarusian armed forces have 3,457 tanks, 3 armored fighting vehicles, 156 artillery pieces, 30 fixed-wing fighter aircraft, and 79 armed helicopters, with a total strength of 2.  B million people.  After some negotiation and struggle, Russia took back approximately 40,000 people and related weapons and equipment.

    ¡°Then Azerbaijan, Armenia, Moldova and other countries provided the Russian army with varying numbers of troops, but they were far less large-scale than those provided by Ukraine and Belarus.  Ukraine will not retain weapons such as strategic bombers, so it will exchange them for Russia with economic conditions in disguise.  As for the issue of nuclear weapons, we did not discuss it this time, but Ukraine basically can only hand over nuclear weapons to Russia.  On the contrary, the Russians are very worried about Nazarbayev, because Kazakhstan has inherited about 0 nuclear weapons from the Soviet Union and has not even mentioned it yet, which makes Yeltsin and others have to worry.

    Of course, what they are most worried about now should be the two breakaway republics. The Far East and Siberia have also deployed a large number of nuclear weapons, and even the combined number is basically comparable to the number of nuclear weapons in the areas currently controlled by the Russian Federation.  Obviously, if it reaches a certain point, the "rebels" may use nuclear weapons in a desperate situation to ensure mutual destruction.  This is what Yeltsin is most concerned about. If Yankov and Novozlov do not have nuclear weapons, his decision will become easier to make.

    Yeltsin¡¯s most intense competition was for Ukraine¡¯s possessions, one of which was the ships of the Black Sea Fleet. After some back-and-forth competition between the two sides, they finally decided on a proportional distribution.  It's just that neither of these two countries expected a problem. Their poor economy meant that although they inherited a large amount of equipment, they could only watch a lot of things rot there and never be used again.

    ¡°In fact, it¡¯s not just Russia that takes a fancy to Ukrainian equipment, China also has ideas about some things.  A team of Strategic Bureau agents under the leadership of Qi Yiming are planning and operating the acquisition of two relatively large items.  These two things are-the Varyag aircraft carrier and the Ulyanovsk aircraft carrier.

    The hull of the former has been basically completed, while the latter has only been built about 30%.  Ordinary military fans all know the ending of these two aircraft carriers. After many years of silence, the Varyag came to China and was remodeled into the Liaoning, China's first aircraft carrier; and the Ulyanovsk  However, Western countries used a trick to instigate the shipyard to dismantle it and sell it for scrap in the name of a leather company.

    Frankly speaking, with a base shipyard and a monthly production capacity of 30,000 tons, if Qi Yiming really wanted to embark on the aircraft carrier project, he could build as many as 45 aircraft carriers a year.  Moreover, the Type 62 aircraft carrier is a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier with a displacement of B million tons. It is equipped with catapults and various relatively mature technologies and applications. It is still much better than the Soviet Union's still somewhat immature aircraft carrier.  But as a military fan of later generations, getting the Varyag, transforming it into a hybrid aircraft carrier, and renaming it the Liaoning is like a mission that needs to be completed.  As for the tragedy of the Ulyanovsk, if it can be avoided, Qi Yiming can get a B-10,000-ton hull, and after domestic modification, it can also be compared with the 62Type aircraft carriers also sail the oceans for PL.

    ¡°Moreover, refitting aircraft carriers is also extremely helpful for improving the level of shipyards and increasing the Navy¡¯s understanding of Soviet-style ships.

    Here we have to mention the Kiev-class aircraft carrier, the previous level of the Soviet Union. This aircraft carrier is probably more appropriately called an aviation cruiser. It can only take off and land L fighters, which seems a bit nondescript.  In fact, it is possible to modify this kind of ship to create an amphibious assault ship, with a large tonnage and a lot of space.  It's just that Qi Yiming didn't have any targets at the moment. Two of the four ships were in Russia, and the other two were actually in the Pacific Fleet, which belonged to the Navy of the Far East Republic. Qi Yiming had no intention of getting them from the Far East Republic again.  , after all, it¡¯s not like he really lacks shipbuilding ability.

    At this time, Qi Yiming has not yet started the project to directly acquire the Varyag and Ulyanovsk, because it is not yet the time to make Ukraine most embarrassed, and if it comes so obviously, it is very likely that the lion will open its mouth.  On the other hand, China itself does not lack aircraft carriers and amphibious ships, so it is hoped that this matter will not be rushed.

    Yeltsin, who slowly collected military power from the union republics, did not quickly launch attacks on the two separatist countries, and it seems that Yankov and Novozlov have not made more provocative moves since they declared independence.  However, this did not make Yeltsin feel very relaxed, because the two military leaders Yankov and Novozlov actually began to honestly announce their own program of governing the country and promulgated a series of reform measures for the socialist country.

    Anyone who studies politics and ideology will be able to distinguish one word - China - between the lines of the two countries' government decrees, which have similar differences.  Yes, although the reform measures in Siberia and the Far East did not copy socialism with Chinese characteristics, they did seriously imitate or copy China's successful experience.

    First, Siberia and the Far East strengthened the control of the CP, emphasized the leadership of the CP, and insisted on their own Soviet system of unity of discussion and action.  But on the other hand, politics advocates a more enlightened and open model, such as strengthening the authenticity and effectiveness of the people's representative system and protecting people's various rights and freedoms within a reasonable range.  In fact, most residents are not interested in political content; they are more concerned about economic issues.

    It can be said that the Far Eastern Republic has basically turned a blind eye and allowed the penetration of China's economic power in recent years, so the Russians in the Far East have become very accustomed to this kind of life and think there is no problem with it.  .  While maintaining the public ownership of the economy, ordinary people have the right to open private economic entities, and the market leads the economic direction, which is open and flexible.  It can be said that Far East is just saying what it has already done.

    The situation in Russia is different from that in Europe. Because of Qi Yiming's overt and covert infiltration, the economic situation in Siberia and the Far East is much stronger than that in Europe. Siberia may be a little worse, but as soon as Yankov declared independence  At that time, a large number of products with Chinese labels removed were distributed by the military to residents of major cities for free. Moreover, it was only a week after the declaration of independence. The restructuring of the economy and enterprises had already begun. People obtained new jobs and could directly  Obtained "military stamps" issued by the factory

    Because Yeltsin messed with the Soviet banks and the ruble was plummeting, Qi Yiming had no intention of paying for Russia, so he used the military's repressive pressure and credibility as a guarantee to force the issuance of new agency currencies in Siberia and the Far East, that is, military stamps.  .  These military stamps can be directly exchanged for daily necessities and food from China in local stores. They have stronger purchasing power than rubles, so they are very popular with locals.

    The industrial capacity of Siberia and the Far East is even stronger than that of many areas in China to a certain extent. Qi Yiming took this opportunity to directly issue an administrative order through the hands of Yankov and Novozlov, which was actually to let  These companies began to provide supporting services to Chinese companies.  In this way, Qi Yiming can take advantage of China's local light industry and supply it to the two republics, while the heavy industry and resource extraction industry of the two republics can supplement the Chinese economy, and everyone is happy.

    What made Qi Yiming very satisfied was that the two republics came under his control, which allowed him to receive a large amount of Soviet heritage in disguise - in the aviation industry, he obtained the Komsomolsk Aircraft Manufacturing Factory, Irkutsk Factory, and New  Siberia Plant; shipyards include Amur Shipbuilding and Komsomolsk Submarine Manufacturing Plant; army equipment includes Omsk Transportation Machinery Manufacturing Plant, etc.  Not to mention the nuclear industry, aerospace industry, etc.  Almost all the military manufacturing options owned by the Soviet Union were taken over by Qi Yiming.

    In another dimension, the 2E Port 3, which is mainly supplied to China, is manufactured in Komsomolsk. Now if Qi Yiming wants to build some Sukhoi fighters to play with, or sell them, there is no problem.  Qi Yiming even considered whether to take out the J-6 and label it as produced by the Gongqingcheng Factory for personal use or export.
