Chapter 2030： Final plan two

"We can deploy some of our troops to attack the small town of Bonny in the south of Champagne. There should have been a key protection zone for the French. After expanding the front, we can let the armored forces and rapid forces enter the French army from here, and then go straight. At the back of the French position, the frontal offensive forces formed a clamped offensive, which completely crushed the French counterattack."

"Then what is the size of this flanking force" Calypte asked.

"The 2 most elite armored divisions plus 2 fast divisions. As for the remaining ordinary replenishment units, they will be replaced by the Prussian army after breaking through the line of defense. Their task is to go as far as possible to the rear of the French position after breaking through the position. Launch an attack! It is best for the French to misjudge our attack direction!" Ruprecht said.

"If this is the case, I am worried that the heavy artillery unit attached to it will not be able to keep up. You know, more than 90% of the cannons above 150MM are towed rather than self-propelled." Calypte said.

"It doesn't matter, there are not so many hard walnuts for you to smash in the French position behind. The normal 150MM howitzer and 105MM cannon are almost enough." Ruprecht said. "I don't expect them to annihilate half of the French army, as long as they can disrupt the deployment of the French."

Subsequently, the German General Staff made some adjustments to the deployment of Army Group B in accordance with the instructions of Crown Prince Ruprecht, while Army Group A did not make much change. After all, if the plan is successful, the 4 Army Group A The group army will easily eat the isolated British Expeditionary Army Fifth Army, and then go round to the rear of the British army very smoothly. At this level, it is really a win!

"If the French are unwilling to give in, then Group A will still launch an assault from the direction of Saint Quentin, but after breaking through the French position, except for leaving a group of troops to block the possibility of British troops on the northern line In addition to the reinforcements, the remaining three armies completed the centripetal assault against the French army in front of you! After the frontal French army was completely wiped out, we marched towards Paris! "Everything may encounter accidents. If the French die hard, Lu Precht doesn't mind knocking down the French completely!

Judging from the overall plan, there will be at least two tough battles in the entire battle. The first is the collision with the French counterattacks after the Germans broke through the defense line. The Germans took a long time to prepare, and the French also took a long time to prepare. .... Since Foch can determine the direction of the German offensive, he will naturally concentrate all the talents of the French army for the final fight. At the same time, considering that there are at least 150,000 British troops in the hands of the French army, this battle may be the largest field battle in history!

Another tough battle is estimated to be a concentrated counterattack after the British discovered that the Germans passed through the passage left by the French. However, overall, the strength of this battle is probably not as strong as that of Germany and France. In the decisive battle, first of all, the British army was not prepared enough, and secondly, from a purely military perspective, the British were quite interesting. Regardless of the fact that the two armored divisions that the British gave to the French were not fully staffed, it was already in the hands of the British. The best armored unit! The remaining armored forces are short of 30 to 40%!

Yes, you read that right. After the end of the winter offensive, the British armored forces have not slowed down. The big losses are on the one hand, and the lack of engine supply on the other hand. They are produced separately from the German tanks and aircraft engines. Different, in fact, the difference between the British tank engine and the aircraft engine is not that big. It can be understood that the aero engine is changed and thrown on the tank... Some time ago, British aviation suffered heavy losses, so the aircraft engine decisively snatched the tank engine. (In World War II, there was really a case of British tanks using aero engines.)

Therefore, from the field level, the amount of armor that the British can use is weaker than that of the French, and in terms of quality, it may not be comparable to the French with large-caliber anti-tank guns such as San Mongcha. ratio. The tanks attached by the British might be a little threatening if they cooperate with the war-proof artillery and infantry for defense, but they should be pulled out to fight? Go to sleep.

As for the heavy artillery unit? Most of these troops are solidified in permanent and semi-permanent cannon nests. These artillery can be moved, provided that the British find enough cars or tractors to tow these ten-ton jumpers! So, overall, if you can avoid the front of the British positions, the British Army field forces are not a big problem.

The only trouble is the British aviation power. Although the previous battles have cost the British a lot of losses, at this critical juncture, if the British fight for a fight, it will be no problem to invest in various aircraft. The fighting power of the British Air Force, which is desperately fighting, is one level higher than the French aviation force that Group B faces!

Therefore, in terms of time, Ruprecht adjusted the aviation power. When the French were ready to compromise after being beaten on the frontal battlefield, Ruprecht would ask the French to open a breakthrough a few days later~www .novelhall.com~Using this gap, the air force will be rested and transferred and then ready to meet the British.

As for whether this move will arouse British suspicion? In theory, it is not possible. The willingness is very simple. After any major battle in World War I, no matter who wins or loses, there must be some rest and reorganization. Ruprecht will create an illusion for the British. , On the front, although the German army broke through the French defense line and severely damaged the French army, it did not completely destroy the opponent. In other words, let the British think that this is a tactical victory rather than a strategic level.

"This will be the last land battle of the empire in this war! I hope everyone will continue to work hard. We are about to win a glorious victory, surpassing the victory of the Franco-Prussian War, and our achievements will shine in the annals of history!" At the end of the meeting, Rupley Hitt said so.

With the completion of the final preparations, under the cover of more than 10,000 artillery pieces of various calibers, more than 2,500 tanks and armors, and more than 4,500 aircraft, two groups of the German Empire, 8 group armies, a total of more than 2 million troops He has entered the attacking position, and with the passage of time every minute, the footsteps of the final judgment are getting closer!

The French on the opposite side are also waiting for the arrival of the final moment. Is France blocking this deadly offensive and regaining its glory, or finally succumbing under the pressure of a powerful enemy? Foch and others already had the answer in their hearts. At the moment when the two sides were about to showdown, the French still retained their contact point in the Netherlands. Perhaps at a critical moment, Clemenceau and others are even better than millions of French troops!

went to the street again yesterday... That's a heartbreak--!
