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

Chapter 691 New information?

Mr. Lu's words seemed to have finally touched Joseph's rationality deep in his heart.

As the leader of the Russians, he had personally experienced the cruelty of World War II and saw his country on the verge of being destroyed by the Hans.

He knew the cost of war and understood that a nuclear war would be an unprecedented disaster.

Joseph sighed, his shoulders drooped slightly, and the excitement seemed to subside a little.

He walked back to his seat, sat down heavily, and thought for a moment.

"So, what does Comrade Lu suggest we do now?"

His tone was less aggressive and more questioning.

When Mr. Lu saw Joseph's attitude soften, a relieved smile appeared on his face.

He returned to his seat, his tone becoming more even.

"I think the wisest thing to do now is to consolidate the victories we have achieved,"

Mr. Lu said slowly, "Let the Russian bear recuperate, restore the economy, and improve people's living standards."

"At the same time, we will strengthen economic and technological cooperation with Longguo for common development and prepare for future challenges."

There was a hint of depth in his eyes.

“True victory is not achieved solely on the battlefield, but also in peacebuilding.”

"If we can prove that the Red Front system can bring a better life to the people, that will be more powerful than any military victory."

Joseph listened quietly, his brows gradually relaxed. Although Mr. Lu's words were far from what he had originally thought, they did make sense.

For many years, the Russian Federation has been investing a lot of resources in the military field, while the people's living standards have not been improved as they should be.

Perhaps, as Mr. Lu said, it is time to focus on domestic construction.

"Perhaps you are right, Comrade Lu," Joseph said slowly, with a hint of compromise in his tone, "But what if the Eagle Sauce is unwilling to accept defeat and stirs up trouble again?"

Mr. Lu smiled slightly, with a glint of wisdom in his eyes.

"By then, Longguo will still stand on the side of Mao Xiong. Our alliance will be a force that the Eagle Sauce dare not challenge easily. But before that, let us give peace a chance."

Joseph was silent for a moment, then nodded slowly.

He had to admit that Mr. Lu's suggestion was indeed more prudent.

Although he was still reluctant to give up this rare opportunity, reason told him that it was indeed too risky to rashly attack the whole of Europe.

"Okay, Comrade Lu, we will follow your suggestion for now,"

Joseph finally compromised, but there was still a hint of stubbornness in his tone.

“However, I will closely monitor the movements of the West. If they show any signs of threat, we must take immediate action.”

"This is a wise decision, Comrade Joseph,"

Mr. Lu agreed, with a warmer smile on his face.

“Vigilance is necessary, but overreaction can be counterproductive. I believe that over time you will see the value of this decision.”

Joseph nodded, although there was still a hint of reluctance and anxiety in his heart.

As a leader accustomed to being in control of situations, he felt somewhat uneasy about passing up such an obvious offensive opportunity.

But Mr. Lu's calmness and foresight did leave a deep impression on him.

At this moment, a secretary knocked gently on the door and came in to announce: "Comrades, dinner is ready."

Joseph stood up and made an invitation gesture to General Lu: "Come, Comrade Lu, let's have dinner together to celebrate this victory."

"While we may differ on future actions, this does not prevent us from celebrating our current achievements."

Mr. Lu smiled, stood up, and followed Joseph to the door.

"It is my great pleasure, Comrade Joseph. As our ancients said: 'Those who achieve great things do not dwell on small details.'"

"We may have strategic differences, but in the big picture, we remain the staunchest allies."

The two men walked out of the conference room and through the long corridor of the Kremlin.

The strategist in Joseph was still pondering the situation in Europe and calculating various possibilities, but he had to admit that Mr. Lu's caution might indeed be wise.

The dinner was held in the State Banqueting Hall of the Kremlin.

The magnificent decorations and exquisite tableware demonstrate the majesty and heritage of the Russian Empire.

Joseph and Mr. Lu sat at the two ends of the long table, surrounded by senior officials and military generals from both countries.

After three rounds of drinks, Joseph gradually relaxed.

The joy of victory and the effect of wine made him temporarily put aside his plans to attack Europe.

He raised his glass and addressed the audience:

"Cheers to our victory! Cheers to the friendship between Dragon Country and the Russian Bear!"

"In the future, no matter what challenges we face, we will fight side by side to safeguard the dignity and security of the Red Front!"

The audience burst into warm applause and cheers.

Soon, the banquet began.

The Kremlin banquet hall was filled with the clinking of glasses and bright lights.

In the Kremlin's banquet hall, crystal chandeliers illuminated the tipsy faces of the guests.

Joseph raised his glass to toast the Dragon Kingdom delegation with a kind smile on his face, but there was a barely perceptible resentment in his eyes.

The heat of the vodka steamed up his cheeks, making his suppressed ambition even more restless.

On the surface, he accepted Mr. Lu's advice and agreed not to launch an attack on Europe for the time being.

He even raised a toast to praise the unbreakable friendship between the two countries.

But deep down, the dream of a united Europe still burns like fire.

Joseph secretly glanced at Mr. Lu who was talking with a Russian official in the distance, and a complex emotion flashed in his fox-like eyes.

At this moment, a man in a dark uniform came quietly to Joseph, leaned over slightly and whispered in his ear.

"Comrade Joseph, there is an urgent matter requiring your personal attention."

Joseph frowned slightly and turned to look at the KGB officer carefully.

He recognized the officer as a senior member of the intelligence services, and he would not bother him with trivial matters.

"Now?" Joseph asked in a low voice.

The KGB officer nodded, a rare hint of nervousness in his eyes.

"It's top secret, Comrade Joseph."

“It’s an emergency.”
