When it comes to German friends, almost everyone's eyes are on Lieutenant Colonel Richthofen.
General Cyric still didn't come, and it was Richthofen every time now.
Hearing these people's requests, Richthofen shook his head: "Our tanks are still being repaired. The last accident left our tanks slumped. Now, we are waiting for spare parts from Berlin."
Wait for accessories! When will it be shipped from Berlin? One month has passed! By then, 37 years have passed!
It seems that the Germans cannot be counted on in this battle!
It's really tickling!
"We, General Cyric, are also very anxious now, but the accessories are too heavy, the aircraft is not suitable for delivery, and we still have a large amount of funds not in place, so we can only go by sea."
Lieutenant Colonel Richthofen spoke slowly, and he continued: "However, we, General Cyrek, have a proposal."
Cyric has a suggestion? Hearing what he said, everyone was shocked. As long as you have studied the process of Cyric's rise, you can find that this guy has almost never failed, and every time his inference is quite correct.
And now, although Cyrek did not attend, it was the representative of Richthofen, but his proposal must be taken seriously.
Even Franco asked excitedly: "Go ahead, what does he suggest?"
"Abandon the attack on Madrid, first strike down all the surrounding areas and make Madrid an isolated city. Only in this way can we cut off all the reinforcements of Madrid and cut off the supply of the Republicans, including the international column, so that Madrid can be taken down. ."
Suddenly, Franco's face changed.
The National Army started its offensive from the west and advanced to the east. Up to now, it has controlled the territory of the west with Madrid as the north-south boundary. All the routes of advancement are around Madrid.
After all, Madrid is the capital. As long as Madrid is captured, he can turn this rebellion into orthodoxy. Although Franco has proclaimed himself the head of state of Spain, he is still not recognized by the public.
Franco is very important to Madrid. It is like an emperor who wants to ascend the throne and there is only one step left from the dragon chair. No matter how difficult this step is, he must step out! At this time, in his eyes, there is only the dragon chair, nothing else.
Therefore, Franco is unacceptable.
Even Lieutenant Colonel Richthofen continued to explain his reasons: "On our opposite side, not only the National Army, but also the International Column, and the most combative is the International Column. Behind them is the Soviet Union’s support. !"
"We can only take over other territories, control those ports, close the border with France, so that Soviet reinforcements cannot reach Madrid, and we can make Madrid surrender even if we don't fight."
"Today, on the opposite side of us, there was T-26, which was reinforced by the Soviet Union. Only by cutting off foreign aid can we win."
Richthofen wasted a lot of saliva in vain. In the end, Franco just nodded, even if it passed.
Back at the base, Richthofen told Cyrek everything about the meeting, and Cyrek nodded: "As I expected, Franco will never give up playing Madrid."
Richthofen was speechless for a while, and after doing it for a long time, what you proposed was an impossible plan, so why did you mention it?
"In this way, when Madrid can't beat Madrid next year, everyone will know that the plan I put forward is correct." Cyric said.
If the port is not blocked, the border is not blocked, Soviet aid can be easily sent to Madrid, and the opponent keeps replenishing blood. How can we fight this?
In the past few months, not to mention the attack on the Madrid city, even the suburbs of Madrid can not be beaten down!
Cyric's plan now is to show this foresight, so as to win the respect of those veterans.
"It seems that this Madrid battle will not last long." Richthofen was quite convinced of Cyrek.
Cyric nodded: "Now our army is aggressive, but we don’t have enough stamina. If we can fight for another month at most, it will definitely not work. At least the logistical supplies will not be able to keep up. By next year, the Republican Army will counterattack again. This The Spanish battle will not end so soon."
Cyric’s crossing has changed history. If Cyric takes the German elite all the way, then he can successfully enter Madrid.
But, what good is it for me to do so? Therefore, Cyric will not change the history of the Spanish Civil War at all. Let Franco try to fail first!
"Our planes can be sent out one after another to take part in some ground attack missions to train our pilots. As for the tank unit, keep it first." Cyric said.
There are tanks on the opposite side, and the T-26 is still carrying a cannon tube. Therefore, the Italian army that has learned the lesson will definitely not be willing to go to the front. They will change their tactics, that is, use artillery, bombard, bombard. It's almost time to go up again.
It was exactly the same as Cyric guessed.
After a week of indiscriminate bombing, the National Army, which once again gathered troops, finally broke through the "Patio House" park defense line, and then forcibly crossed the Manzanares River and pressed the university town.
Here, a brutal battle kicked off, and the International Column newly formed the 11th squad, defending the university town firmly.
Fighters are bombarding indiscriminately, dropping countless bombs on the university city every day.
Every building in the University City, the Philosophy Building and the Literature Building, has become a **** battlefield, and almost every building is engaged in a tug of war. This is like a terrible meat grinder, constantly devouring the fresh lives of both sides.
The battle lasted until the end of November, and Franco reluctantly ordered a retreat.
Since the battle for more than a month, the casualties have been too heavy. Franco was almost desperate facing the ever-increasing number of Republicans and the new international column.
Although Madrid is right in front of us, we can't go any further! At this time, he finally remembered Cyric's suggestion that if Madrid's backup is not stopped, Madrid will be very difficult to fight!
