53: The meritorious division: the Warrior Combined Brigade is revealed!

Day five of the war.

While the Soviet Union held a massive "East-79" military exercise on its northern border, Dragon Country's forces quickly organized the "North China Grand Military Exercise" in response.

Both sides conducted large-scale tactical drills in the border regions, including armored cluster assaults, air force bombing, and airborne division deployments.

Simultaneously, Dragon Country's self-defense counterattack forces completely disregarded the Soviet Union's 50-kilometer "red line."

200,000 troops on the eastern and western fronts pushed directly to within ten kilometers of the Vietnamese Monkey's capital.

The entire Vietnamese Monkey's capital was placed under the artillery of Dragon Country's independent artillery divisions and ground artillery regiments.

This move by Dragon Country's military directly stunned the entire international community!

On this day, the hearts of all nations leaped into their throats!

The Dragon Country government's toughness far exceeded the expectations of all countries in the world!

They had never felt a Third World War so close!

Because at this point, whether the Vietnamese Monkey dared to counterattack Dragon Country, or Dragon Country's military ordered all independent artillery divisions and ground artillery regiments to open fire, the Vietnamese Monkey's capital would cease to exist.

At that time, the Soviet Union, due to its military alliance treaty with the Vietnamese Monkey, would certainly turn the "East-79" exercise into real combat, officially declaring war on Dragon Country.

Although Dragon Country had defeated the Vietnamese Monkey, its size was still too small compared to the enormous Soviet Union.

Economically, Dragon Country's total GDP in 1978 was only 143 billion US dollars, while the Soviet Union's was more than ten times that of Dragon Country.

Militarily, the Soviet Union's 5 million standing army, its land army's steel torrent, air force bomber formations, naval aircraft carrier and nuclear submarine fleets, and its terrifying nuclear arsenal were all immeasurably more powerful than Dragon Country's.

In terms of population, although Dragon Country had a large population of one billion, the Soviet Union, as a powerful alliance, could mobilize 2.5 billion people from many allied nations worldwide.

Therefore, Dragon Country had no advantage in any aspect.

But precisely because of this, Dragon Country incredibly forcefully disregarded the Soviet Union's "red line."

It even completely placed the Vietnamese Monkey's capital under the artillery "encirclement" of its own army, making the Vietnamese Monkey so afraid of provoking Dragon Country that it dared not even resist.

The Dragon Country government's toughness utterly shocked the international community!

Immediately, the United Nations, Western countries, and Warsaw Pact member states all began sending telegrams to Yanjing and the Kremlin, mediating the situation.

At this moment, the USA was the most nervous in the international community.

It was a global consensus that Dragon Country was not a match for the Soviet Union at present.

The USA, the Soviet Union, and Dragon Country itself were all well aware of this.

The Soviet Union's strategic ambition was now fully revealed: to unify the Indochinese Peninsula, incorporate the entire Southeast Asian shipping lanes and South Asia into its sphere of influence, and use this as a springboard to not only control the Southeast Asian shipping lanes but also gain absolute say in the Middle East.

At that time, the USA would not only be unable to compete militarily with the Soviet Union, but its domestic economy would also collapse due to the Soviet Union's control of the Middle East and the collapse of the newly established petrodollar system!

Therefore, the USA absolutely could not allow the Soviet Union to achieve this strategic goal!

That is to say, the USA absolutely could not allow the Soviet Union to take action against Dragon Country!

No matter what the Dragon Country government wanted to do, their White House and The Pentagon had to step in and help Dragon Country withstand the pressure from the Soviet Union.

"The Third Fleet and the Seventh Fleet must proceed to the Southeast Asian region to strictly guard against the Soviet Union's naval combat forces!"

"In addition, the European Command should also organize military exercises of the same scale with allied forces to warn the Soviet Union not to act rashly!"

The White House and The Pentagon immediately deployed their forces...

Day six of Dragon Country's self-defense counterattack war.

On this day, three historically rare large-scale military exercises were simultaneously taking place around the world:

The Soviet Union's "East-79" exercise, Dragon Country's "North China Grand Military Exercise," and the USA and NATO's "Shield" exercise!

But at this moment, countries around the world inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief.

Everyone knew that a Third World War would not happen.

Because Dragon Country had successfully dragged the USA into the water.

In international geopolitical games, a triangle is also an exceptionally stable geopolitical relationship.

For example, if Dragon Country dared to attack the Vietnamese Monkey's capital, the Soviet Union would inevitably attack Dragon Country in the north.

And if the Soviet Union dared to attack Dragon Country on the border, its west would inevitably be attacked by NATO, caught in a pincer movement.

As the situation developed to this point, the international community couldn't help but generally marvel at the courage and superb geopolitical maneuvering of Dragon Country's leaders!

First, Dragon Country's strategic objective had been achieved: to severely teach the Vietnamese Monkey a lesson.

Now, the Vietnamese Monkey's capital was under the coverage of Dragon Country's artillery, and the entire Vietnamese Monkey nation dared not make the slightest move.

Even its ally, the Soviet Union, warned the Vietnamese Monkey not to resist any further.

This situation would continue until Dragon Country had moved out all the equipment and supplies it had previously provided to the Vietnamese Monkey.

Then, Dragon Country would withdraw its troops.

Secondly, Dragon Country successfully dragged the USA, which had been sitting on the sidelines watching the tigers fight, into the fray.

Originally, the Soviet Union and the USA, two superpowers, were the players in this chess game.

The two countries manipulated the international situation, allowing Dragon Country and the Vietnamese Monkey to engage in a contest.

But now, Dragon Country, by becoming a chess piece itself, forcibly dragged both the Soviet Union and the USA onto this chessboard.

And with its superb maneuvering skills, it transformed from a chess piece into half a player.

To solidify this current triangular relationship, both the White House and the Kremlin must respect Dragon Country's interests and stance.

After all, if Dragon Country was dissatisfied and decided to flip the table, then everyone would stop playing!

Although the USA's White House think tank also analyzed the Dragon Country government's plan, Dragon Country's helmsmen were not using conspiracies but open and legitimate strategies!

For its geopolitical interests, the USA also had to enter this chessboard to ensure its core interests were not harmed!

Until this moment, all countries worldwide had been taught an incredibly brilliant lesson in international geopolitical maneuvering by Dragon Country!

Many countries looked at Dragon Country with new eyes and praised it endlessly.

Not only did Dragon Country's military fight such a beautiful battle, but it even outmaneuvered the USA and the Soviet Union, two superpowers, leaving them speechless.

It is no exaggeration to say that after this war, the Vietnamese Monkey, a country once hailed as the world's third military power, was completely crippled!

Its international standing plummeted!

After all, what world's third military power could have its capital blockaded by a neighboring country's artillery, not daring to move an inch!

This was practically parading the Vietnamese Monkey in the international history of modern warfare, putting it on public display!

Both the harm and the humiliation reached their peak!

In those days, the Gallic Rooster constructed the Maginot Line, hailed as the world's strongest, and at least fought the Prussian state for 42 days.

In contrast, the Vietnamese Monkey not only suffered a major rout on its front lines during Dragon Country's self-defense counterattack but was also held at gunpoint by its neighbor's artillery at the gates of its capital, only daring to cower and not show its head!

Meanwhile, as Dragon Country gained an absolute advantage on the battlefield, it gradually entered a trilateral negotiation phase with Dragon Country, the USA, and the Soviet Union.

The Valiant Combined Arms Brigade, the meritorious division that decided the outcome of this war, also came before the world!
