Rasputin of the East

＜ 266 >

Vladivostok, Far Eastern Military District Headquarters.

“In Japan and Korea, only four divisions are deployed and withdrawn. China is urgent now.”

“All right.”

“Americans, you really care.”

Not long ago, a large amount of money began to flow into Korea. The source, of course, was the United States.

Of course, it wasn’t that the money didn’t flow elsewhere.

Huey Long, with his interventionist forces on his back, declared that he would rebuild military and economic aid to protect freedom and independence around the world in the name of the World Reconstruction Plan.

Isolationist forces rose up all at once and poured out criticism, but Huey Long went ahead and declared active US intervention in world policy.

Of course, this was very controversial. Now, Huey Long has already been re-elected, and his term is less than a few months away.

Therefore, it could be abolished or maintained depending on the political orientation of the successor. First of all, Democrat Wendell Wilke was in favor of it, while Republicans were against it.

Through this, Huey Long aimed to expand his influence on countries receiving aid from the United States externally and for humanitarian causes domestically with a large-scale financial aid.

Contrary to the Marshall Plan, it was particularly concentrated in East Asian countries.

The reason was simple. America has no bridgeheads. If you go to the east of France right now, it’s far enough for the Russians to push them away with tanks. In which countries are Russian troops currently stationed?

In East Asia, the situation is different. First of all, isn’t it quite far from Russian influence? In this case, the US has a much better advantage.

Therefore, in order to prevent Russia from entering the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, it was necessary to pour money into it. First, Ireland, then completely independent Australia, and Iceland and Greenland, which the United States is working to separate from Denmark, which cannot escape Russian influence. France is very squeamish about Russia.

and Korea and Western Japan. Southeast Asian countries to South China.

Of course, not knowing anything else, Russia strongly protested against Japan as a war criminal country and not to support it, and Huey Long, unable to ignore the protest, replaced it with increasing aid to Taiwan, South China, and India.

Intervention in China’s civil war was also part of the policy to contain Russia’s expansion of influence.

In any case, the Russian Empire had no reason to stop this, as it poured massive support from religious groups as well as the US government to Korea. What can you say about humanitarian aid to countries that have suffered from colonization, not countries that are war criminals?

And the political instability caused by the return of members of the Provisional Government seemed to have been temporarily resolved when the Russian government, which is a party to the military administration, offered a compromise that no one could object to in the name of, to establish a new government through elections after the temporary dissolution of both sides. .

“It is too dangerous to withdraw too many troops from Korea. Moreover, according to the current troop movement plan, the number of troops is insufficient, so South Korea is virtually unable to deploy troops outside of Seoul. Of course, some ports and routes will be controlled by our allies, but…”

“The most important thing in the first place is Seoul. All major government buildings are there, and above all, Koreans have formed a security organization to some extent.”

“Last time, there was a gunfight in the Central Theater where even a grenade was mobilized, and the projection room was blown up and a left winger was seriously injured. Before that, political thugs also engaged in gunfights in the suburbs of Seoul, resulting in casualties. I didn’t do anything.”

“From our point of view, it doesn’t matter what government is established on the Korean Peninsula, as long as it has a base in Korea, and the best person is the president or the prime minister, and now the Chinese problem is even more serious. It’s a situation you don’t know. Let’s go to Dalian, cheap and talk.”

Chuikov shook his head.

Unlike Japan, which is a war criminal country in the first place, Korea does not need to deploy a large army to suppress it, and its role as a literal military base is sufficient. The owner didn’t seem to have any attachment to his hometown.

No, it would be a lie if I said there was none, but I didn’t reveal it for the most part. So far, the Russian side has been very considerate of Korea, and it has been close to falling apart in the midst of a kind of loyalty competition.

Korea has no value to Russia other than its geopolitical value. As long as there is a government that pursues liberal democracy in the United States there, they will not be able to, nor will they be able to do the crazy thing of aiming a gun at Russia. Then it’s enough to just crush it with a tram.

Above all, it was difficult to say that Russia was also receiving investment from the United States, so it was difficult to tell her idiots not to eat it.

Although it was quite surprising that this happened even amidst the bombing of US troops in China, both sides had no intention of escalating war in the first place, and the Russian Empire had enough to block Mao Zedong’s intention to reunify mainland China, and the United States had a dominant influence in China. That was enough.

Thus, the United States and Russia could tacitly fight only in China and maintain peace in other regions, provided they respect existing agreements and not advance their ground forces beyond their borders. The US military proudly uses Russian-made firearms as official equipment.

It was nothing more than an agreement to tacitly respect each other’s sphere of influence, and what happened in China agreed to be treated as a kind of happening because the sphere of influence had not yet been established in East Asia. It was no exaggeration to say that bombing of the areas where the Russian troops were stationed was banned no matter how high-value targets were, and Russia gradually reduced the number of troops stationed there.

Of course, this was limited to the Salt Gye Warlords that collided with the United States, and the number of Russian troops increased even more in the Qing Dynasty, including the Salt Gye Warlords and the redeployed troops from Korea and Japan.

Therefore, the dissolution of imperialism in cooperation with the United States and Russia also proceeded as planned. Many colonies declared independence, and the United States and Russia supported them.

Washington DC, USA.

Surprisingly, public opinion in the United States itself about China’s involvement in the civil war itself was not so bad.

In other words, it was not the soldiers who went to the field, but the thoughts of the people themselves.

First of all, the American people were proud that America was spreading liberal democracy.

In addition to the frame of the Chinese people groaning under a corrupt, corrupt, and irresistible dictatorship, the fresh revolutionaries fighting against them, and the US military helping them, the US public opinion began to stir when the dictatorship of North China attacked US bases. returned to the cold.

Besides, Americans still lacked soup.

In fact, how many victories were won by the United States alone? Beat the Pacific Japs?

Most of the European front was left to the Russians, and the Pacific front was the only battle that was fought? Even then, the Kwantung Army, known as the most elite unit, was removed by Russia. Australia, New Zealand, and South America also did not have decisive victories. The Australian Army and New Zealand didn’t have a lot of troops, and South America just pushed in and beat them out. Compared to Russia, which had a savage victory with almost all of the powers that everyone knew by name, the light was fading.

In World War II, the United States was a staunch second-in-command.

Of course, there was no one who revealed it openly. So, is it possible for machos in America to do unmanly things that reveal the inferiority caused by not being active?

However, in the original law, where the speechless part is more urgent, American politicians wanted to show off the feeling that they had beaten Russia in China.

The tyrant drives out the dictator whom he has set up as his puppet. As a result, this is a proxy war between the United States and Russia, and if the United States wins here, it means that the United States has an advantage over Russia’s military support, which is equivalent to defeating Russia.

It was a stupid logic, but it worked. In the first place, a large-scale war had just ended, and I did not want to clash head-on with the Russian army that ended the war, so a local proxy war was a good option. People don’t want it more than anything else.

Fundamentally not so different from the First Great War, the world war caused by the interests of nations was, to some extent true, a war between non-civilization and civilization, and furthermore, caused by the dissonance that came from trying to pave the way for a crusade between good and evil. It was also a crack.

In addition, there were many veterans in the US military who still went through the hellish Pacific and South American wars in World War II, and they had enough experience operating in areas similar to China, such as Japan and Ryukyu, so I thought it would be over soon.

“Tell me again.”

Election is just around the corner, and you’ve been attacked.

No, in other words, it might have been an attack for the sake of an election.

“What happened?”

“They detonated bombs on the base, terrorized and opened fire. All but a few of the casualties were from the first explosion.”

There were over 200 casualties.

‘It’s easier to convince Congress.’

The election is already several weeks away. It was only natural that the president, who would soon be absent from the White House, would have difficulty exercising his proper authority.

But he was still president, so he was able to issue orders for more troops against China.

Until now, it had been a battle at the level of retaliation against the North Korean bombing, but now it was an all-out war.

“The navy, the army, the marines, everything to prepare to deploy a large number of ground forces other than the air force.”

“All right.”

“And… how is Operation Bayonet going?”

“Don’t worry, Ohrana would have responded sooner if she had noticed. Agents act as staunch individuals, practically doing nothing, leaving nothing behind.”

It’s up to them to decide how the other side will accept it, but why on earth would they help fools who magnify their minds?

However, that would be enough to warn Russia, leaving no evidence.

To be honest, Russia has some degree of psychosis, but what can they do? They will basically deny everything, and if necessary, they have a way to turn some decent humans into megalomaniac or bipolar psychopaths.

And most of all, it was a big thing that he was not the one who had to take care of himself. Wendell Wilkie will probably have to sweat a bit in this place.

Well, at any rate, it will be settled in one or two years, so even if it becomes longer, it will be over within the first term of the next president.
