In the conference room of the White House, President Old Bush Ten’s face was gloomy, his brows furrowed.
His gaze was fixed on the situation map of the Soviet Bear Alliance on the large wall.
“Stupid! He dares to go back after knowing the domestic trouble!”
Old Bush Ten angrily interrupted the low murmurs of the meeting, his voice full of accusation.
“How could he leave Moscow at this crucial moment!”
“Mr. President, there are indeed many factors, but the arms dealers invited them… ” An advisor attempted to explain, but Old Bush Ten coldly interrupted him.
“Explain what! The situation is already out of control. Yeltsin’s departure from the country has left us in a big mess.”
He slammed his hand on the table, stood up, and the documents in front of him scattered on the floor.
“It was a sure thing. The Soviet Bear's disintegration was just a matter of time.”
“Now! Ah? That bastard Yeltsin is in trouble himself!”
“Emile, you incompetent fool, why haven't you contacted the agencies over there in the Soviet Bear!”
At this moment, Old Bush Ten had a bad feeling.
Such a major setback right before success would make the subsequent disintegration of the Soviet Bear Alliance less smooth.
If more unexpected events occurred, all of Eagle Sauce’s money and time would be wasted!
The high-level officials involuntarily shrank their necks, understanding that Old Bush Ten’s anger was genuine, but the current situation didn’t give them many choices. They had to react quickly.
“Immediately gather everyone at the Number One Mansion! We need to quickly formulate a response plan.”
Old Bush Ten said in a deep voice, his tone carrying an unquestionable determination.
Following Old Bush Ten’s order, the high-level team began to act, making phone calls, sending messages, relaying the President’s instructions.
A few minutes later, the conference room was filled with a group of high-level decision-makers, each with a serious expression.
They gathered around the long table, discussing the latest intelligence.
The documents were all about the dynamics of the Soviet Bear Alliance. The news of Yeltsin’s secret return and subsequent disappearance after failing to contact him made everyone feel a pang in their hearts.
“Why haven't we heard from Yeltsin since he went back?”
“Is he any good? Can't he suppress Gorbachev's little brat's coup with so many troops?”
An expert on the Eastern European situation asked, with a hint of expectation in his voice.
“The possibility of overthrowing Konev is very small, the situation has changed.”
Another advisor chimed in, “And there's news about Gorbachev and other disintegration factions. He may have been controlled by Konev, or even…”
“Even killed.”
Old Bush Ten interrupted him, a hint of gloom flashing in his eyes, “If it were me, I would do that, kill him first to avoid future trouble.”
“We can't wait any longer. We need Yeltsin to take the initiative, otherwise, if we wait for later, it may be too late.”
“This Konev is more decisive than we thought!”
“But,” a young assistant interjected, his voice trembling, worry etched on his face.
“We've lost contact with our agents who are deep undercover in the Soviet Bear Alliance. This means they may have been captured.”
“Konev’s faction may have found out about us, if he uses that as evidence…”
“This is where the real danger lies!”
Old Bush Ten’s voice became increasingly sharp, his finger tapping forcefully on the table, “If our agents are caught or our information is leaked, it wouldn't just be a matter of information, it could affect our entire plan.”
“It's all that damn Yeltsin's fault, we should have launched the disintegration plan earlier, and once successful, we should have quickly gotten rid of him.”
The team members looked at each other, their expressions becoming increasingly serious.
Old Bush Ten scanned the room, sensing the anxiety and unease of everyone.
“CIA, you must find a way to contact Yeltsin again!” He said firmly, his gaze piercing, “At the same time, you must find a way to restore contact with our agents, any mistake could lead to irreparable consequences.”
“Yes, Mr. President.” The high-level officials nodded, but their minds were blank.
President Old Bush Ten frowned, switched to another document, and said to the people in front of him, “Currently, the most reliable person in the Soviet Bear Alliance is Yeltsin. The most successful way for us is to solve the coup launched by Konev through Yeltsin.”
“If Yeltsin can regain control of the situation, our investment and layout will be saved.”
“Mr. President, I agree, but… whether Yeltsin can come back is uncertain.”
CIA Director Cote sat across from him, his mouth twitching slightly, his voice revealing honesty, “Nearly 80% of our agents in the various member countries of the Soviet Bear Alliance have lost contact, Konev’s preparations are more extensive than we thought.”
“Eighty percent? What about the remaining twenty percent, what have they found out!”
“They haven't found out anything, what good are they!”
“Investigate! Find out for me quickly!”
Old Bush Ten’s brow furrowed angrily, making CIA Director Cote tremble.
Swallowing his saliva, Cote quickly added, “The CIA has been in action.”
“We are having the remaining agents conduct intelligence reconnaissance and restore communication links, they should be able to complete the task within two hours.”
Old Bush Ten listened to this, his expression becoming even more difficult to look at.
They had toiled diligently in the Allied Alliance for 5 years, only to set up a complete information channel network, insert countless spies, and cultivate numerous moles.
It can be said that they had infiltrated every level of the Soviet Bear, from the top to the bottom.
But now, such a deep foundation, years of hard work, had all disappeared overnight.
And the person who caused all this was even the son of a disintegration faction leader!
More importantly, Yeltsin, who had the most potential, had also disappeared.
If this continues, forget about disintegrating the Soviet Bear Alliance, it might even make the Soviet Bear Alliance more united.
Disintegrating the Soviet Bear Alliance would probably require even more time.
At this moment, not just CIA Director Cote, Old Bush Ten also pinned his greatest hope on Yeltsin.
He believed that Yeltsin had a very high reputation throughout the Soviet Bear Alliance.
Even if Konev was truly ruthless and killed other disintegration faction members, he wouldn’t dare touch a hair on Yeltsin’s head.
Just thinking about it, he began to pray in his heart, hoping Yeltsin would definitely be alive.
Not only Old Bush Ten, but all the other Eagle Sauce high-level officials had anxiety written all over their faces.
Each of them had a complicated expression, and the abacus in their hearts was clicking.
In their eyes, as long as Old Bush Ten went through with the plan smoothly,
All of the Soviet Bear Alliance’s outstanding companies, mineral resources, manpower, materials, and even their treasury would fall into their pockets.
But now, the meat that was about to be in their mouths was about to fly away!
Just then, CIA Director Cote suddenly stood up and reported, “Mr. President! Good news! We have contacted the Soviet Bear Alliance!”
