"Okay, I should help you, why?" Russia asked, swaying his cup of Vodka around. Guangzhou nervously thought of a response as the man played with his cup. "You hate Japan, no?" Guangzhou asked. "Mhm." Russia hummed, it was gonna take more effort to convince him it seems. "I- I could you resource rights! Russia's in need of more of those, r- right?" Guangzhou asked, desperate. "Go on." Russia gestured, fuck, what else could convince him...? Guangzhou thought desperately as to what else could appease him... an idea clicked, a desperate one. "You hate Germany, no?" Guangzhou asked. Russia paused. "...Yes." Russia confirmed, now Intrigued. "Germany's supporting Japan, albeit not so publicly, It's still Influence nonetheless..." Guangzhou argued. "You could kick German Influence out of East Asia, and get your revenge against the Japanese..." Guangzhou explained, hoping he'd accept.

Russia pondered Guangzhou's proposal, swirling his cup of Vodka as he considered her words. The chance to take revenge against Japan and kick German influence out of East Asia was a tempting prospect. He took a long gulp from his cup, before speaking. "You make a compelling case, Guangzhou..." he began. "But what makes you think I'll help you?" Russia asked. "Your the last person who can help me..." Guangzhou paused, before continuing. "...Please." Russia paused, studying Guangzhou intently. He could sense the desperation behind her plea, and it tugged at his heartstrings. He took another swig from his Vodka, letting the liquid burn his throat before speaking. "Alright, Guangzhou, I'll help you..." he said, his tone heavy. "But I have a condition." Russia added.

"If it's about the reformation of my economy, absolutely not!-" Guangzhou was rejected once cause of that, not again. "No, no, not that." Russia cut her off. "I don't care about that frankly." Russia explained, before continuing. "I need you to hold the Japanese for say..." Russia pondered. "6 months... I need to get my army ready, Y'know?" Guangzhou exhaled a breath of relief, grateful that Russia wasn't demanding economic reforms. "Six months..." she repeated, considering the timeline he had in mind. It was a long time, but it was better than nothing. She nodded. "We can hold them for six months, but what happens after that?" She asked. "We enter through Manchuria and crush them from there... it should be rest for you after that, After all, a Army of Bandits don't usually fair well against a Army of True soldiers."  "True..." she conceded. "The bandits are nothing compared to a proper army. But we still have to hold the line for those six months..." She grimaced at the thought.
