This is different from the Spanish Civil War. Germany and the Soviet Union only sent troops to fight in Spain. Now, on the border of the Soviet Union, the two sides directly attacked, which would bring disastrous consequences.
Therefore, weapons and equipment can be provided, but almost all of them are under the rule of law anyway.
Flying troops can also be provided. These pilots come from various countries.
However, ground forces can only be provided when they are absolutely necessary, and when they are provided, they must be extremely secretive, under the banner of the Finnish forces.
It seems that the Germans did not travel far to uphold justice and justice and support Finland regardless of remuneration. Of course it is not that simple.
If Finland knew that this war was secretly provoked by Germany, it would definitely not be so grateful.
The cause of this war is no longer known. Almost all the people who clashed in the first place were dead. Both sides insisted on their own opinions. In the eyes of the Finns, this was just a conspiracy of the Soviets.
What are the benefits of supporting Finland for Germany?
There are many benefits. As long as it holds the Soviet Union in Finland, the Soviet Union will not be able to create friction on the Soviet-German border! At the same time, the Soviet-Finnish war broke out in high latitudes. The war will continue for a long time until winter.
Germany lacks relevant training in fighting in cold regions. Finland now provides a good stage. Under cold conditions, how to maintain aircraft and ensure dispatch, how soldiers can keep out the cold, and how to fight can all be experienced in Finland.
In this way, when we attack the Soviet Union in the future, we will not catch the blind!
As for the mountain division, the same considerations apply. After all, only mountain divisions are still available in Germany. At the same time, General Loeb is almost the founder of the German mountain division.
Looking at the opponent with great excitement, General Loeb continued: "The first batch of supplies will arrive soon. Now, let's discuss it. The first is the defense of the Karelia Isthmus."
Now, the Soviets are boasting that they will solve the Finnish problem in half a month. When the Soviet materials are in place, the offensive will begin. At this time, a powerful counterattack must be used to bring the Soviets off. beat back.
At the words of General Loeb, Marshal Mannerheim frowned.
Finland did not want to fall under the control of the Soviet Union, so it had to rise up. It can be said that as long as possible, they did not want to fight. Who wants to fight against a monster like the Soviet Union?
Now, they are very grateful for Germany's support, but if Germany wants to control the Finnish army in this way, it is definitely not what he wants to see.
Especially now, this German general does not regard him as an outsider, and he has to talk about how to defend. Is he trying to seize command?
If this is the case, you have to make it clear in advance.
"We predict that this will be the focus of the Soviet army's offensive. At the same time, Finland has already set up the Mannerheim line of defense. However, the line of defense is still not strong enough. I think that when we transport these weapons, we must immediately To strengthen the artillery here, especially the deployment of anti-tank guns, it must be denser!"
General Loeb was talking eloquently. As an expert in defensive position warfare, he had long seen that the Finns' defenses were insufficient.
However, no one responded to him.
After talking for a long time, he realized that there was something wrong with the atmosphere. He raised his head and looked at Marshal Mannerheim, who was looking at him.
"These are my personal opinions." General Loeb finally knew that he had made a mistake. When he mentioned the defensive battle, he had a lot of ideas and couldn't help but make them all become reality, especially with the German offer. These weapons are enough to make the defense of the soldiers on the front line easier.
The German army is not only good at offensive operations, but also good at defense! As the best defensive master, General Loeb just said too much. After all, this is not Berlin, he is just here to help.
Hearing this, Marshal Mannerheim's expression eased: "General Loeb, your opinion is correct. I hope you can help us. In this way, can I appoint you as our military adviser?"
Simply, confirm your identity now, and let this general who is good at defensive be your own military adviser.
This is just a consultant. The specific battle still has to be decided by Marshal Mannerheim. This must be clear, but you can't wait until it becomes under the command of Berlin. That would be bad.
If the Germans agree, it is the best. If they do not agree, then they cannot surrender their power, because sovereignty is at war with the Soviets and the power is controlled by Germany. What is the point?
President Kayander also nodded, indicating that this decision is good.
"If this is the case, then I will accept it." Loeb did not object, and agreed: "I hope that in the future, we can join hands and work together to win the Soviets."
Of course Loeb never thought of coming to seize control of the other party. When he set off from Berlin, Cyric gave him advice that he was here to help, but not to seize power Okay, then we Let's discuss the details now. Just now you said that you want to deploy the anti-tank gun to the front? "Marshal Mannerheim looked at the other party's acceptance and changed his attitude. Now it is true that planning how to defend is the key. Front-line intelligence shows that the situation is not optimistic. It is possible that the Soviets in the last two days, It will attack.
The battle in the north is about to begin. Now, the two sides are like firewood dried in the winter, as long as a small spark can be ignited.
In the south, in the Mediterranean, a fire has already been ignited.
The British fleet was almost annihilated, but the French fleet was not much better, especially for their flagship Dunkirk. The engine room at the rear was abolished. At least it had to be on the berth and it took half a year to survive. come.
Let General Sur stand on the bridge. He has transferred from Dunkirk to Strasbourg. A collision during the day caused some damage to its hull, but it could still sail.
Looking at the sunset, General Sur’s eyes were full of anger. Britain’s betrayal of France made the French navy unforgettable. Today’s battle will never be forgotten!
"General, General Darlang has sent us a new order." A voice came from behind, and a telegram was handed over.
Order, the Mediterranean Fleet, set sail at night, raided the British base in Gibraltar, and smashed all the artillery shells it carried on the British head!
When he saw this order, General Sur’s eyes straightened, thinking about the feeling of being blocked by the British at the door, and General Sur felt that he couldn’t get out all the time, and now, finally Have a chance!
"Through this order to the entire fleet, we must let the British know the fate of the attack on us!" General Jean Sur said.
