Jagged Germany: Chapter 515 Total attack 2500 votes plus update

  On the evening of April 9th, Reims, the German Western Front Command.

  As the battle on the front line gradually stabilized, the German army was breaking through the defense line of the British and French allied forces in an orderly manner. There was no need for Qin Tian to stay on the front line. It was best to return to the headquarters to get an overview of the overall situation.

  That night, the commanders of several legions rushed to the headquarters.

   "Everyone, is the progress on the front line going smoothly?" Qin Tian looked at several army commanders.

   "Your Highness, it will take up to three days for the 2nd Army to take Champagne and Chalon!" said General Billo, the commander of the 2nd Army.

  Qin Tian nodded and looked at Admiral Howson and the Duke of Württemberg.

  The two also immediately stated that the progress of the 3rd Army and the 4th Army was also very smooth, and it was only a matter of time before they defeated their face-to-face enemy and captured their intended target.

  Qin Tian is still very satisfied with the progress of the current battle situation. Although, the troops suffered a lot of casualties. But where is the undead in war? What's more, this time the opponent is still a world-class power. It is already very rare to be able to obtain the current battle damage.

   "Your Highness, when will our 5th Army go to the battlefield?" General Dimlin, the commander of the 5th Army, couldn't sit still. Seeing the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th legions fighting against the British and French allied forces on the front line, they can only watch the show behind. This is undoubtedly a torment for Admiral Dimlin who wants to make contributions.

   "General Dimlin, the 5th Army is about to enter the battlefield." Qin Tian said with a smile.

   Not only General Dimlin was very excited, but General Bilo and others were also very excited. After all, according to the plan, if it were not for the crisis on the front line, there would be only one reason for the 5th Army to participate in the battle, and that was that they were preparing to launch a general offensive and defeat the British and French allied forces in one fell swoop.

  However, judging from the current situation, it is indeed time to launch a general offensive. In the past week, the British and French coalition forces have been severely damaged, losing at least hundreds of thousands. Although the German army lost a lot, the main force did not suffer much loss. In particular, the armored units have not participated in large-scale battles. At most, they sent some tanks to assist in the battle when attacking the positions of the British and French allied forces. These tanks are all kept so that they can break through the defense lines of the British and French allied forces in one fell swoop during the general offensive.

   "Your Highness, is it time for our general attack?" Admiral Billo asked.

"Yes. Now the troops of the British and French coalition forces on the Marne River defense line have been severely damaged by us. In addition, the left wing cluster has made breakthrough progress. The 1st Army and the 8th Army surrounded and wiped out 30 soldiers on the Seine River. Ten thousand British and French allied forces. At the same time, at least one hundred thousand British and French allied forces were wiped out in Rouen. Rouen has been controlled by the left-wing group. Now, the 1st Army is crossing the river. For this reason, we have revised the battle plan, and the 1st Army has crossed the river. The Seine River, south of the Seine River, the 8th Army on the north side of the Seine River, and the two armies advanced along the Seine River towards Paris. Under such circumstances, it is naturally impossible for the British and French allied forces to mobilize troops to the Marne River defense line. Therefore, again There is no point in dragging it down. It would be better to completely defeat the troops deployed by the British and French allied forces on the Marne River, and cooperate with the left-wing group to besiege Paris!" Qin Tian said.

  Qin Tian's words made these commanders excited. Paris is the capital of France! They are all optimistic that as long as Paris can be won, the battle will be over. The French, who even lost their capital, naturally have no possibility of continuing to fight. In this case, Germany is undoubtedly one step closer to winning the final victory of this war.

   "The 1st Army and the 8th Army have done a good job. Their strength is so much smaller than ours, but they have already eliminated 400,000 British and French allied forces, which is no less than ours!" Admiral Howson sighed.

   "Yes! Then we have to hurry up. Otherwise, the left-wing cluster has advanced to Paris, but we are still on the Marne River." The Duke of Württemberg also said.

   After learning about the progress of the left-wing cluster, everyone felt a sense of urgency. It is an honor for everyone to be able to come to Paris.

"Since this is the case, then prepare to launch a total attack. Tomorrow, the 5th Army will rush to the front line. At the same time, all armored units are also ready to attack. The day after tomorrow, that is, April 11, a general attack will be launched across the board, tearing apart the British and French forces in one fell swoop. At the last line of defense on the Marne River, completely defeat them!" Qin Tian ordered.

   "Yes, Your Highness!" Several legion commanders replied.

   "In addition, send a telegram to the 6th Army and the 7th Army, and their attack on Verdun also needs to be accelerated." Qin Tian said.

  The German 6th Army and 7th Army, with a total of 400,000 people, attacked Verdun, which was garrisoned by the French 3rd Army and 5th Army. However, despite the strong firepower of the German army, it caused great losses to the French army. However, relying on the solid defenses of Verdun, the French army withstood the German attack.

  However, with the outcome of the Battle of the Marne River, the Battle of Verdun will definitely have an immediate result. Once the German army defeated the main force of the British and French coalition forces in Verdun, if the two French armies defended Verdun, then their retreat would be cut off and they would fall into the encirclement battle of the German army.

   Therefore, the next general offensive of the German army on the south bank of the Verdun River is undoubtedly very important. It is related to the victory or defeat of the German army in this war.

  If the German army defeated the British and French allied forces deployed on the south bank of the Marne River in one fell swoop, they would be able to march directly to Paris, and together with the two legions of the left-wing cluster, they would besiege Paris.

  It is almost impossible for the British and French allied forces who suffered heavy losses to hold Paris. Once Paris is taken by the German army, even France will persist. However, with heavy losses, how long can they hold on? You can guess without thinking, this battle will probably end soon.

  On April 10, all members of the German 5th Army began to cross the Marne River. With the help of the pontoon bridges built by engineers on the Marne River, all the personnel, equipment and supplies of the 5th Army crossed the Marne River and reached the south bank of the Marne River within a day.

  According to the order issued by Qin Tian, ​​​​the German 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th legions are also ready to launch a general offensive. The troops attacking the three cities stationed by the British and French allied forces continued to maintain their offensive, while the rest of the troops assembled and prepared to directly attack the remaining positions of the British and French allied forces.

  On the morning of April 11, thousands of cannons of the German army once again began to bombard the last two lines of defense of the British and French allied forces.
