After swallowing the food in his mouth and thinking for a while, the imperial Marshal finally spoke slowly: "don't rush to attack. We are the nearest troops to red square. Let the soldiers on the front line have a rest. "Judging from the current situation, the Soviet troops stationed near Shengtian Cathedral have the strongest fighting capacity, and Zhukov should be in that direction."
After a smile, he said to his officers, "marshal Kluger's luck is not very good. His attack direction is just in the direction of Zhukov's garrison. He's one step ahead of us in the city, but he's the slowest on every line now. "
According to the news this morning, goodrian's armored forces lived up to the expectations of the public. They competed for the type of war in kuzmingji manor, and with their superior tank forces, they severely damaged the close guard third armored front army under the command of vasilevsky, and annihilated the last organized Soviet armored force in Moscow. Now the southeast of Moscow has been controlled by Guderian's panzergrenadiers, and they have even pushed to the Moscow people's stadium and deployed their own forward positions along Stalingrad street.
The Finnish army, which is just north of Moscow, has occupied bibilevo and, under the control of Liszt's army, controls part of the area of otradnoye. Liszt's e-army has also crossed the wetlands in northeastern Moscow to reach parts of the yauza River and the xiaoerkovo highway.
Standing up from his dining table, lundstedt went to the front of the map with his hands behind his back. The supreme command issued an order to abolish the size of the front-line forces. The main forces mobilized were not the main German forces, one was the Finnish group army, the other was the Italian group army in the South.
The first troops to be transferred include 10 infantry divisions in the Italian army, with a total of 15 soldiers. These soldiers will be ordered to return directly to the country and be sent back to their hometown as reserve soldiers; The number of demobilized members of the northern Finnish army is not so large. Only 30000 to 40000 will leave the front line and return to their hometown.
However, the German army on the other front will not have such good luck. The N group army under the command of drosiller, the P group army under the command of bock and the O group army under the command of Reichenau will only retain half of their original strength, and the entire 450000 soldiers drawn out will return to their hometown and be resettled by government departments.
After all, although the border with the servant state of the Siberian Federation extends thousands of kilometers along 50 degrees east longitude, the German army does not need to keep too many defensive forces on this line of defense - it is a waste of time.
According to the final agreement between Germany and the Siberian Federation, the German army will keep about 600000 troops here, while the Siberian federation can deploy 200000 regular troops along the border. However, there is still a long way to go for both sides: the German army has deployed more than 2 million troops of four groups along this line, while the Siberian Federation has retained 750000 troops. The treaty stipulates that it will take two years for the two sides to adjust the border forces to the required number, which is later, of course.
As a matter of fact, Germany does not have much so-called inside information of a powerful country. In terms of population and territory, it has no ability to compete with real powers and win one opponent after another. It relies on more advanced tactical concepts and more systematic, faster and more comprehensive war mobilization.
At the instigation of akkado and with the efforts of every institution in the country, it took Germany only one year to complete its own comprehensive mobilization. Factories began to work overtime to produce weapons and equipment under the constraints of the wartime act, and countless young people were immediately armed and trained into elite soldiers.
However, the rapid and comprehensive mobilization does not necessarily mean that the war potential is huge. On the contrary, the German army has been unable to expand a large-scale army in the past three months. This fully shows that Germany's war potential, especially the potential of human resources, has been fully exploited to the limit.
Germany only has a population of about 100 million, which is still the figure of Austria and other German regions. Relying on a population of about 100 million, Germany can support 7.5 million regular troops, which is a heavy and extreme burden on the country's economic and social development. Under normal circumstances, if Germany can guarantee the size of 2 million regular troops, it is already a large number of troops.
More than 4 million regular troops, for a Germany that has just experienced defeat, can definitely be described as belligerent. Moreover, in just two years, Germany has almost doubled the scale. To support 7.5 million troops by 100 million people is an amazing miracle in the history of the world.
Of course, strictly speaking, the 7.5 million troops are supported by countless workers and farmers in the occupied areas, millions of prisoners of war in the concentration camps who can not even maintain basic living security, and victims of other ethnic groups. These people are almost feeding Germany's huge army with their own blood, which is one of the main reasons why scholars of later generations criticize the development history of the third empire.
Undoubtedly, for the ordinary German people, it is absolutely good news that the front-line troops can be disbanded and returned home. Although the limited abolition of veterans in the German army for many years affected some of its combat effectiveness, the return of these veterans to their hometown did once again promote akkado's reputation in Germany.
Countless retired soldiers and their families took to the streets to support akado and become the third emperor. Demonstrations even broke out in some areas to protest that government officials used their power to restrict the hope God gave to the German people to ascend to the throne of a more authoritative emperor. Because the scale of the front-line ground war is gradually shrinking, the signs of the end of the war in Germany are more and more obvious, and more and more minions are returning from the front line. The voice of supporting akado to become the first "great European emperor" in history also began to show traces. These voices are supporting akado to ascend to the throne as the nominal ruler of Europe. But behind these voices, all agree that all countries should maintain a high degree of autonomy. These countries, with the attitude of supporting and killing, first hold akado to an unprecedented height, and give him the high hat of a European emperor. Then, after flattering him, they put forward their bottom line and attitude: when you are the emperor, we will support you, or even give you a better title. But we all live our own lives. Don't tell us what to do, We'll give you three parts of face - happy ending, won't we? What is different from the past is that this time, the Rudolph family, the most prominent family in Germany, who lives in the residence of the head of state in Berlin, has not kept silent. Mercedes, the first lady of the Empire? Rudolph with Caesar? Rudolph went to the Vatican in a high-profile manner to receive the blessing mass from the papal hall, which is regarded as a confirmation of the saying that "the family sent by God" has been publicized by the papal hall“ Marshal... "He didn't quit the headquarters. Standing next to the marshal, the confidant of lundstedtert quietly reminded him:" there's news from the general staff. Marshal Liszt, marshal Keitel and marshal modle have all submitted letters to persuade the head of state to be emperor. Should you prepare for it? " Now in this situation, everyone knows that the "Tianxuan family", which seems to be as powerful as the country of Tianxuan, seems to really want to add a yellow robe to themselves. Therefore, we all put down our reserved attitude and express our position before the outcome is clear. After all, akado? The influence of the name Rudolph in the national defense forces has long been greater than that of the emperor. As a representative of the Conservatives, brauchich has not clearly expressed his attitude, but before several marshals of the Fuehrer faction come forward to speak, the neutrals have already stood on the side of the Fuehrer... After all, the attitude of the general staff should be the same as that of the supreme headquarters under akkado. Lundstedt was silent. He was really worried that if he didn't make his stand clear before the leader's faction spoke, his commander of group a army would really be transferred back to the rear to live for the rest of his life. He didn't worry much about his own safety. After all, he had made countless contributions to akado. But he was worried about his military career. Killing a general's chance to lead a soldier would make him more miserable than killing him“ Help me prepare a telegram advising the head of state to ascend the throne and become emperor... In addition, prepare another telegram. Since we are late, we have to do better than others... "Lundstedt said to his confidant after thinking about it. As the commander of a group army and the German marshal who conquered London, his mind was crystal clear. Since he was afraid that brauchich and the conservative generals would blame him for being strong, he had already figured out a way to deal with it: "send a telegram to marshal brauchich to persuade him to support the head of state to be emperor!" You see, everyone has just expressed their support for the head of state's claim to the throne, while lundstedt has not only expressed his position, but also reduced his face to ask the people around him to support the head of state together. That's considerate, right? With this in mind, lundstedt returned his eyes to the map of Moscow's urban area, thinking about whether he would like to launch an offensive at any cost“ Tomorrow morning, we will attack the Foreign Ministry building of the Soviet Union. After seizing it, we will send a telegram to Yuan reporting the results of the war! " With that, lundstedt waved to his confidants, who were ready to withdraw.
