If I learn Russian and Serbian, will I be able to at least understand what Poles, Slovaks, Czechs and other Slavs talk?

west slavic is almost completely unrelated to south and east

I don't think you know what completely unrelated means, if they were then interslavic wouldn't be a thing understood by all branches

If you don't understand that as a Serbian speaker then learning Russian won't help you much, there is rather little in common between Polish (and even less with Czech/Slovak) and Russian what Serbian doesn't share either.

Probably learning Ukrainian makes more sense for that purpose because it gives you almost ability to speak also Russian and wide understanding of Polish and Slovak, a bit less Czech. Ukrainian shares a lot of vocabulary with Polish but also most of these words have Russian-like synonyms so if you know Ukrainian it's kinda like learning both languages at once

and as for grammar, all Slavic languages except for Bulgarian are so similar to each other so it's really hard to believe, especially that Serbs had no contact with North Slavs for like 1200 years after Hungarian invasion, it's weird they didn't diverge more from each other.

As a Serbian speaker, I'd say the only relevant difference is how you create future tense and that thing that Serbian can replace infinitive with da + verb. The rest of grammar is almost exactly the same or very similar.

No. Even if you learn ukrainian, you won't understand much from Polish, Czech and Slovak.
