Chapter 791 Bombing the Falklands
In the Atlantic Ocean, recently, the strong sea breeze was constantly blowing, and even the ten-ton-class warships were shaking a little, while the Soviet Union, which had a displacement of 80,000 tons, was still as solid as a rock and stable as a rock.
Sitting in the conference room and having a cup of coffee, Andre listened to the news about the satellite communication he had just received.
"So, are the Americans really planning to get into this muddy water?" Andre asked Victor.
Victor nodded: "Yes, the United States held a meeting in NATO to discuss joint troops. Even Spain has launched their old maze aircraft carrier. NATO decided to unite and deal with Argentina together."
Spain originally planned to watch the show, but even they contributed the aircraft carrier. Of course, the big reason is that this aircraft carrier was sold to Spain by the Americans. However, this also shows that the United States still has appeal throughout NATO! If the United States really forces it, other NATO countries will really have to listen to the United States and help the United Kingdom together.
Of course, Britain also paid a price. NATO countries cannot help Britain for no reason. In addition to the UK paying the direct expenses of these countries, more importantly, the UK has signed an agreement with these countries to export oil to these countries at a price lower than the market price within the next five years at a price of 20% lower than the market price. It can be said that this condition was also the case that ultimately impressed these countries and allowed the US proposal to be implemented well.
"Where is France? What is France's attitude?" Andre continued to ask.
France's current main naval force is two Clermontsos-class aircraft carriers, with a full load displacement of nearly 40,000 tons, and has quite strong combat capabilities. If France also dispatches, it will stage a spectacular scene between legal fighter jets and legal fighter jets.
"France said that their aircraft carrier is under overhaul and cannot be deployed. After all, they are not NATO countries, so it is normal not to follow the United States' footsteps. However, they sent two frigates, which is also a sign of attitude." Victor said: "General Andre, this time the Americans summoned so many warships to come together, probably not just to fight against Argentina."
If the United States wants to help Britain, as long as an aircraft carrier battle group comes, Argentina will have no power to fight back and there is no need to make such a big noise.
"Of course not, the Americans' goal is actually us." Andre said: "Poor Argentina, it's so miserable."
How could the Americans have such a big fanfare just because of the Falkland Island? The most important reason is that the Americans must have discovered their own existence!
During the battle between Britain and Argentina, the entire formation was three or four hundred kilometers away from the battlefield. On the vast sea, its formation was difficult to be discovered by satellites in the sky, which is why it has been hidden until now.
However, it is impossible for the British to hide it all the time. After all, the British would still find some clues from this war, such as, how did those Phantom fighters come from? How did the Argentine Navy accurately find the British aircraft carrier formation on the vast sea? In this way, the British could still detect something. If the Americans aimed all the satellites here and searched continuously, their side might be exposed.
The NATO countries can work together to send troops to the South Atlantic Ocean, which must be because the Americans exaggerated themselves and believed that this was the expansion of the Soviet Union! The entire Western world will not sit idly by and watch all this happen, so they sent a joint fleet to the Atlantic Ocean with great momentum!
Unfortunately, they didn't know that this happened to force Argentina to their own side! Galtieri also fantasized about continuing to maintain normal relations with the Western world after the war ended! But now, what other choices can Argentina have besides resolutely turning against the socialist camp?
Reagan took another step!
"Now, let's notify Moscow to officially announce the news of our aircraft carrier formation. We are here to escort our Antarctic inspection equipment and prepare to transport these equipment to the Oriental Station." Andre said: "We are open and upright!"
Open and upright! Thinking about the things Andre did in private these days, he cheated the entire British fleet. Now, Andre's words are so open and upright that Victor can't help but admire. Commanding the entire fleet requires not only military knowledge, but also politically a veteran.
The captain of an aircraft carrier often has to deal with not only the affairs of the fleet, but also various political tasks. After all, aircraft carriers often leave their own countries and go to the ocean to perform tasks and interact with other countries. It is also an art. When it is time to use force to deterrent, they will deter them by force, and when it is time to debate. Victor has learned a lot of knowledge with Andre.
Just as Andre and the main commander of the fleet were discussing the next move, Argentina, hundreds of kilometers away, was in panic and angry at this time.
Successfully attacked the British aircraft carrier formation, killed one of the aircraft carriers and more than a dozen other warships, this was a brilliant victory for the Argentine Navy! In the past few days, the entire Argentina has been in a state of boiling.
We won! Everyone was saying this when they met. The British naval formation was crippled, and the Argentina flag would always float over the Horse Island! Argentina finally straightened its waist all over the world!
In the presidential palace, Argentine President Galtieri was looking at the US ambassador to Argentina, Asa Hutchinson.
"We in the United States have always believed that the Cambridge Island is an indivisible territory of Britain." Asa conveyed Washington's will to Galtieri: "Now, it is time for Argentina to withdraw troops. We can lift all sanctions and restore the previous relationship. The premise of all this is that Argentina withdraws from the Cambridge Island and restores its pre-war state."
The blue veins on Galtioli's face swelled up. As a soldier, it is the most shameful thing to retreat without fighting. If he defeated and had to retreat, it would be simply intolerable. If he hadn't controlled his emotions, he would have beaten the guy in front of him with his fist!
"If Argentina does not withdraw its troops, we can only pass the war stage. Now, our entire Western world's maritime formation has left the port and gathered on the Atlantic Ocean. We come over in a huge momentum. At that time, Argentina needs subsidies." (To be continued.)
