Eagle Sauce: The 055 destroyer was launched into the sea just after the founding of the country?

Other military generals also echoed this, expressing their desire to immediately launch a military cooperation mechanism with Russia to obtain advanced weapons and equipment and strategic support.

In their view, Russia is the only force that can compete with the United States and is also Yugoslavia's most reliable ally in times of crisis.

However, just as the military generals were preparing to act separately, President Gangto raised his hand again, signaling them to remain calm.

“Comrades, it is necessary to contact the Russians, but we cannot pin all our hopes on them.”

President Steel's tone was calm and unexpected.

"We must clearly realize that the Soviet Union had just experienced a brutal battle in Stalingrad. Although it ultimately won, it also paid a huge price."

"Their own troops also need to rest and replenish, so I'm afraid it will be difficult for them to provide us with large-scale, substantial assistance in the short term."

These words were like a bucket of cold water poured on the heads of the military generals who had just become excited.

They looked at each other, their expressions changing from excitement to confusion and disappointment.

"Comrade President, are you saying that... we can't rely on the Russians?"

Jovic asked in disbelief.

"Then... who can we rely on? Are we supposed to fight against the entire NATO with our meager strength?"

Other officials also expressed concern.

If even the Soviet Union cannot provide effective assistance, Yugoslavia's situation will be more difficult than expected.

In the face of the powerful military machine of the United States, Yugoslavia’s resistance is probably just a mantis trying to stop a chariot.

President Gangto looked at the expressions on everyone's faces and smiled slightly, but his eyes flashed with a wisdom that was inconsistent with his age.

He slowly stood up and walked to the world map hanging on the wall.

"Comrades," he said in a calm but firm voice, "we cannot view the current world situation through the eyes of the past."

"Yes, the Russians are our traditional allies and an important force in the Red Front."

“But after the Battle of Stalingrad, a new factor has entered the global game.”

His finger moved across the map, finally stopping at the vast land in the east.

"You all saw what Dragon Nation did at Stalingrad. Their drone swarms, their mechanical dog units, their stealth fighters, and those aerial gunships that we still can't fully understand..."

"The technological level of these weapons and equipment is far beyond our understanding, and may even have surpassed that of the United States."

President Gangto turned around and glanced at everyone in the conference room.

"What does this mean? It means that the world is no longer dominated by just two superpowers, the US and Russia."

“A new superpower is emerging, an emerging power with formidable military strength and economic potential – the Dragon Kingdom.”

There was silence in the conference room, and everyone was attracted by President Gangto's words.

They had indeed heard about Long Guo's amazing performance in the Battle of Stalingrad, but most of them regarded it as an exaggeration of the Soviet propaganda, or believed that it was just a lucky breakthrough of Long Guo in a specific field.

No one really realized that the rise of the Dragon Kingdom might have fundamentally changed the global balance of power.

"Don't forget," President Gangtuo continued, his voice filled with barely perceptible excitement, "after the 'Red Light Project' was exposed, who was the first to stand up and expose the truth and condemn the hegemonic behavior of the Eagle Sauce? It was Longguo!"

"Who argued so forcefully at the Blue Star United Assembly and won widespread sympathy and support from the international community? It was Dragon Nation!"

His tone became more forceful: "This shows that the Dragon Kingdom not only possesses strong military strength, but also possesses the political wisdom and diplomatic skills to compete with the Eagle Sauce on the international stage."

“They are no longer that obscure Eastern country, but an emerging leader with the ability, determination and willingness to challenge the existing international order.”

President Gangto walked back to his seat and looked at everyone with a sharp gaze: "So, comrades, when we think about the future of Yugoslavia, we cannot just limit our gaze to Moscow."

"We should look eastwards and seek help from the rising red giant."

Jovic's face showed an expression of sudden enlightenment, but then he frowned again: "Comrade President, do you mean that we should request military assistance from Longguo?"

"But... our relationship with the Dragon Nation has always been rather distant. Will they be willing to help us?"

"Moreover, their military system is completely different from our Soviet system. Even if they are willing to provide weapons, our soldiers will not be able to master them in a short period of time."

Foreign Minister Milosevic also expressed concern: "More importantly, the Dragon Kingdom has just reached a strategic understanding with the Russian Bear to jointly fight against the Eagle Sauce."

"If we ask for help from the Dragon Country now, will it be seen as a lack of trust in the Russian Bear, and may even undermine the unity between the two major Red Front countries?"

President Steel nodded, indicating that he understood the concerns.

"The questions raised by comrades are very important, and they are also what I have been thinking about."

"First, regarding whether Longguo is willing to help us, I believe the answer is yes. Longguo is currently actively seeking to expand its influence in international affairs, and supporting a country like Yugoslavia that pursues an independent policy and dares to challenge the hegemony of the United States is entirely in their strategic interests."

"This will not only further weaken the influence of the Eagle Sauce in Europe, but also show the world that China is a responsible major power."

He paused and continued.

"Secondly, there's the issue of compatibility of military systems. This is indeed a challenge, but not insurmountable."

"Longguo has a complete defense industrial system. They can provide us with weapons and equipment that meet our needs and can even send military advisers and technicians to help us familiarize ourselves with and master these new equipment as quickly as possible."

"More importantly, the high-tech weapons that Longguo displayed in Stalingrad—drones, mechanical dogs, electronic warfare systems—are what we currently lack the most and are the most effective weapons to counter the military superiority of the Eagle Sauce."

"If we can acquire these technologies, even in limited quantities, they can be very effective in critical moments."

"As for whether it will affect our relationship with Russia," President Gangtuo's tone became more confident. "I think Russia will understand our situation. They are currently preoccupied with their own affairs and cannot provide us with sufficient assistance."

"And the intervention of the Dragon Kingdom is actually helping the Russians share the pressure and jointly fight against the expansion of the Eagle Sauce."

"I believe that as long as we handle this properly, we can maintain our traditional friendship with Russia while establishing a closer strategic partnership with China."

He glanced at the crowd, his eyes filled with firm conviction.

"Comrades, times have changed. We can no longer view the world with the bipolar confrontational mindset of the early Cold War."

"A new multipolar pattern is taking shape, and Longguo is undoubtedly the most important pole in this new pattern."

"If Yugoslavia wants to remain invincible in the future world, it must assess the situation, flexibly adjust its diplomatic strategy, and unite with all peace-loving and anti-hegemonic countries!"
