Chapter 745 Aftermath
When Admiral Harris led the broken fleet and retreated to the Italian base like a stray dog.
A piece of news that is enough to shake the entire world is spreading to every corner of the blue planet through various secret and public channels at a speed faster than radio waves.
The arrogant Eagle Sauce suffered an unprecedented defeat in the "special military operation" against Yugoslavia.
This news was like a magnitude 12 earthquake, causing severe shock around the world.
From Washington to Moscow, from London to Paris, from Tokyo to Cairo, leaders, military strategists, diplomats and ordinary people of every country were stunned by this explosive news.
Teddy Bear · Moscow · Kremlin
The Kremlin was filled with a long-suppressed, almost ecstatic atmosphere.
Joseph stood in front of a huge world map, a cigar in his hand, a long-lost, heartfelt smile on his face.
"Well done! Really well done!"
He excitedly said to Marshal Zhukov and Foreign Minister Molotov beside him.
"Comrades from Dragon Country, you really gave us a huge surprise!"
"They not only helped Yugoslavia repel the invasion of the Eagle Sauce, but more importantly, they completely shattered the myth of the Eagle Sauce's invincibility!"
Marshal Zhukov could not hide his excitement.
"Yes, Comrade General Secretary. The high-tech weapons displayed by Longguo are simply unheard of. Drone swarms, unmanned missile boats, and fighter jets with incredible performance..."
"The emergence of these weapons will completely change the face of future warfare. We must quickly initiate deeper military and technological cooperation with Dragon Nation!"
Molotov analyzed the situation from a diplomatic perspective.
"This defeat will deal a heavy blow to the international prestige of the Eagle Sauce. Those European countries that have long succumbed to the hegemony of the Eagle Sauce will inevitably begin to rethink their positions."
"Our chance has come, Comrade General Secretary! We can take this opportunity to strengthen our ties with European countries, divide the NATO alliance, and break the Eagle Sauce's control over Europe!"
Joseph took a deep puff of his cigar, slowly exhaled the thick smoke rings, his eyes flashing with shrewd wisdom.
He knew that this crushing defeat of the Eagle Sauce not only eliminated the direct threat faced by the Bear in Eastern Europe, but also provided the Bear with a once-in-a-lifetime strategic opportunity to escape from its economic difficulties and reshape its international image.
"Immediately send a congratulatory message to Yugoslavia and Longguo,"
Joseph ordered, his voice thick with amusement.
"At the same time, our propaganda machine must be fully operational to expose the Eagle Sauce's aggressive actions and paper tiger nature to the world!"
"Tell the people of Europe that only under the leadership of the Red Front can they achieve true peace and independence!"

European countries · London, Paris, Bonn
The Eagle Sauce's disastrous defeat in Yugoslavia caused completely different but equally intense reactions in European countries.
In John's London, the atmosphere at 10 Downing Street, the Prime Minister's official residence, was solemn.
Prime Minister Chul paced back and forth in his office with a cane.
As the most steadfast ally of the Eagle Sauce, John Guo felt the same way about this failure.
They not only feel sorry for the loss of the United States, but are also worried about the future of their own country.
"The military myth of the Eagle Sauce has been broken,"
He told Foreign Secretary Eden.
"This means that the collective security system we have long relied on, which is dominated by the US, has developed huge cracks."
"If the Eagle Sauce can no longer provide reliable security for Europe, then we must reconsider our country's defense and foreign policy."
Aiden also nodded solemnly: "Yes, Prime Minister."
"Moreover, the speed of Dragon Nation's rise far exceeds our imagination. We must quickly establish effective communication channels with this great Eastern power to understand their true intentions."
"A Eurasian continent jointly dominated by the Dragon Kingdom and the Bear would be a nightmare for the Great Hard Empire."
……
France, Paris.
The Elysee Palace was filled with a complex emotion of schadenfreude and secret relief.
President Dalle has always been resentful of the NATO system dominated by the United States and is committed to restoring France's great power status and Europe's independence.
In his view, the failure of the Eagle Sauce is undoubtedly a great opportunity to achieve this goal.
"The Americans have finally tasted the bitter fruit of their arrogance,"
He said to the advisors around him with a barely perceptible smile on his face.
"They thought they could dominate the world forever, but now a new challenger has emerged. This is an opportunity for France."
"We can take this opportunity to promote Europe's united self-reliance, break away from military and political dependence on the Eagle Sauce, and build a Europe that belongs to the Europeans themselves."
He immediately instructed the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to strengthen ties with European countries such as Hans and Italy, explore the possibility of establishing a "European Defense Community", and prepare to send a high-level diplomatic mission to Longguo at an appropriate time.
……
As West Ham was rising after the war, Chancellor Adenauer felt deeply worried.
The Hans country is located at the forefront of the confrontation between the East and the West, and the military protection of the United States is the cornerstone of its national security.
The failure of the Eagle Sauce made him full of uncertainty about the future.
"We must continue to stand firmly with the Eagle Sauce," he stressed to cabinet members, "but at the same time, we must also prepare for the worst-case scenario. Strengthening our own national defense and trying to play a more active mediating role between the East and the West may be our only way out."
For a time, the whole of Europe was plunged into great turmoil and reflection because of a battle in Yugoslavia.
The long-standing solid transatlantic alliance is beginning to show signs of loosening.
……
Asia, Africa, Latin America · Third World countries
For the vast majority of third world countries in Asia, Africa and Latin America, the failure of the Eagle Sauce is an exciting and encouraging piece of great news.
For decades, these countries have suffered from colonialism and hegemonism, and dared not speak out against the power politics of the United States.
And now, a small Yugoslavia can actually defeat the arrogant Eagle Sauce head-on, which undoubtedly gives them great encouragement and hope.
In Cairo, Egypt, President Nasser pumped his fist in excitement after hearing the news on the radio.
He immediately convened the member states of the Arab League to discuss how to take advantage of this favorable opportunity to promote national independence and liberation movements in the Middle East and break free from the control of Western powers.
In Cuban Havana, the young Red Front leaders Castro and Che Guevara learned the news through shortwave radio in the humid and stuffy guerrilla camp.
They hugged each other excitedly, with flames of hope flashing in their eyes.
"Comrades, do you hear that? The Eagle Sauce is not invincible!"
Castro shouted to his comrades.
"As long as we unite and dare to fight, victory will eventually belong to us! Yugoslavia today is Cuba tomorrow!"
From Jakarta to Algiers, from Buenos Aires to Hanoi.
The news of the Eagle Sauce's disastrous defeat in Yugoslavia spread across the entire Third World like an east wind, igniting the fire of hope for countless oppressed nations to fight for independence and liberation.
……
Dragon Country · Domestic
When the news of victory reached Dragon Kingdom, the whole country was in an uproar.
From cities to villages, from factories to schools, people rushed to tell each other and were excited.
The newspaper's front-page headline published in the most eye-catching font the news that "our army assisted Yugoslavia to achieve a glorious victory, and the American hegemony suffered a heavy blow."
In the eyes of ordinary people, the significance of this victory is more direct.
This means that the American hawks, who once showed off their might and were so arrogant at their doorstep, have finally tasted the bitterness of defeat.
The humiliation and resentment that had been accumulated in the hearts of the Chinese nation for more than a hundred years were greatly vented at this moment.
A strong sense of national pride and self-confidence arises spontaneously in the hearts of every Chinese.
At the meeting of the top leadership, the atmosphere was more heated and cautious.
President Lu, Fang Yu and other founding fathers sat together, analyzing the far-reaching impact of this victory.
"This victory has completely shattered the military myth of the Eagle Sauce and also won us a valuable strategic development opportunity period."
Mr. Lu concluded.
"But we cannot be complacent, and we must not take it lightly."
"Although the Eagle Sauce has suffered a heavy blow, its formidable comprehensive national strength and technological potential cannot be underestimated. They will definitely learn from their mistakes and frantically develop new weapons to fight us."
Fang Yu nodded and added, "Yes. The reason we were able to achieve such brilliant results this time was largely due to taking advantage of the information gap and technological gap."
"But this advantage won't last forever. We must accelerate independent research and development and achieve breakthroughs in more key technologies to remain invincible in future great power competition."
The meeting ultimately decided that Longguo will continue to keep a low profile and focus on domestic development, while participating more actively in international affairs, uniting all forces that can be united, and promoting the establishment of a more fair and reasonable new world order.
Aid to Yugoslavia will continue and will be expanded to various fields including economy, science and technology, and culture, making it an important strategic fulcrum for the Dragon Kingdom in Europe.
A global revolution ignited by the Yugoslav War is sweeping across the entire blue planet with unstoppable momentum.
The old order is crumbling, and a new one is taking shape. In this magnificent tide of the times, Longguo, an ancient Eastern nation once subjected to oppression, is striding proudly toward the center of the world stage with a new and confident attitude.
The defeat of the Eagle Sauce in Yugoslavia was not just a military setback, but also a sign of the end of one era and the beginning of another.
The wheel of history rolls forward, and any hegemony that attempts to block its advance will eventually be crushed to pieces...
