Jagged Germany: Chapter 1122 Advantages of Russia
Smolensk is only 300 kilometers away from Moscow. Once the German army solves the remnants of the Russian Western Front and captures Smolensk, then, at the advancing speed of the German army, it may take less than a month to reach the city of Moscow.
The capital of Bu Russia is also their heart. Moscow has an irreplaceable significance in Bu Russia. If Moscow falls, it will cause an unpredictable and major blow to Bu Russia.
Of course, even if Moscow falls, Bu Russia will never give up. They will continue to move east, and then continue to resist the German attack. However, if it really gets to that point, the situation will become even more difficult for Bu Russia. It is undoubtedly more difficult for them to defeat the German army. Everyone does not want the situation to develop to that point.
"Not only the Germans' Army Group B, but also their Army Group C are also heading towards Moscow. Even if their Army Group A captures Ulyanovgrad, they will inevitably go south to attack Moscow. At that time, we will be besieged by the Germans on three fronts!" Marshal Voroshilov said.
Suddenly, the faces of everyone in the office changed drastically. During the battle in the past week, they have deeply realized the strength of the German army. If Moscow was really under a three-way siege by the German army, it would be almost impossible to hold Moscow.
"We must avoid such a situation as much as possible!" Joseph said.
"Yes, Comrade Joseph." All the generals replied. However, Joseph could clearly feel their lack of confidence from their tone. Indeed, in this battle, the performance of the German experience has already made these generals fear the German army in their hearts.
"Comrade Joseph, we need to hold the Western Front, the Southwest Front and the Northwest Front. It will take at least one more month of delay. In that case, the German offensive will have to be stopped. We will have enough time to train the army, and even launched a counterattack," Marshal Shaposhnikov said.
Joseph nodded, and he knew exactly this, so he was not completely discouraged.
The other generals also had bright eyes. Indeed, the sudden attack of the German army this time left them unprepared and suffered heavy losses. However, the Russian army was not hurt by this, and they still had enough strength.
The winter in Russia is not only cold, but also lasts for a long time. Even people from other countries who are also European countries may not be able to persist. When Napoleon the Great led his army to attack Russia, wasn't that why he was defeated? This eventually led to the collapse of the French Empire.
Now, Germany is attacking Bu Russia. This situation is undoubtedly very similar to the French Empire attacking Russia. Perhaps, they can also use these advantages to defeat the Germans.
Winter in Russia lasts for several months. This will be a rare respite for Russia, which was defeated miserably in the war. They can use this time to train the mobilized army and rebuild the defense line. Even under the cover of heavy snow, they launched a counterattack against the German army.
"Our second batch of mobilization has almost been completed. This can not only make up for the troops we lost on the battlefield, but also increase the number of our troops. After a winter of training and accumulating strength, we are in the Next spring, there will be enough strength to fight the Germans!" Marshal Voroshilov said.
"Comrade Joseph, we can still use this time to ask for help from the Americans. At present, the military aid promised by the Americans can only be transported through the Siberian Railway. Due to the limitation of the capacity of the Siberian Railway, it will take a long time to deliver Ship it here. We must ask the Americans to open up other routes. In addition, the German army has shown such a strong combat effectiveness in this war, and we are under great pressure. Therefore, we can ask the Americans to join the war in advance.” Marshal Voroshilov continued.
Joseph nodded again and again, these are all ways for Buer to recover from the disadvantage.
"I will let the People's Commissar of Foreign Affairs go to the United States as a special envoy. The Germans are powerful, and the Americans can no longer stand by. Otherwise, once we are defeated, it will definitely not be of any benefit to them." Joseph said.
"Comrade Joseph, we are on the western defense line, and we need to start to fortify the wall and clear the country. People and all kinds of materials must be evacuated to the east as much as possible. In that case, even if the Germans occupy those territories, they will not be able to use them. This is For the Germans, it will be a kind of containment. In addition, we also need to develop guerrillas extensively, let them attack the Germans on the battlefield behind enemy lines, and contain the German troops as much as possible.” Shaposhnikov also suggested .
Developing guerrillas is undoubtedly what Bu Russia is good at. Even before the success of the revolution, Joseph himself led guerrillas to fight guerrilla warfare in the mountains of Georgia. In this regard, he is very experienced.
"Well, let more party members stay in the western enemy war zone, organize guerrillas, and fight against the arrogance of the Germans!" Joseph said.
"Yes, Comrade Joseph."
"Comrade Joseph, the Germans have been preparing for this war for many years. For this reason, they even cooperated with us to build a large number of railways and roads in the west. This will undoubtedly allow them to use those railways and roads to quickly Advance. However, except for the western region, the railways and roads in other regions are not so perfect. And the German troops have a large number of tanks, armored vehicles and trucks. Bad traffic will delay their advance Speed. Even, we can actively disrupt traffic. In this case, it will be even more difficult for the Germans to fight to Moscow!"
The other generals also offered their advice. Originally, the atmosphere was very dull. Everyone thought that this time, Buer might lose the war. However, when everyone listed the advantages of these Bu Russia one by one, everyone found that Bu Russia still has great advantages. If all goes well, they may not be impossible to defeat the Germans.
"Comrades, the Germans are very strong. We have great disadvantages in this war. But at the same time, we also have many advantages. As long as we can use these advantages, we may not be able to defeat the Germans!" Joseph said confidently.
