Chapter 1524: Lore III
Chapter 1524 Lore 3
To realize this plan, there must be enough prerequisites. First, the situation in the Balkan Peninsula must be stable, otherwise, I will not be able to deploy enough troops to implement this plan. Second, the French army cannot land in Asia Minor. In addition to the problem of troop strength, the political pressure that threatens the core area of Turkey is also great. It would be good if the Bavarian Army did not concentrate more troops from the Eastern Front to stabilize Turkey, the little brother. Naturally, it is impossible to be busy with other things.
As for more prerequisites, the Russian Black Sea Fleet must be destroyed. If the Black Sea Fleet exists, even if they still cannot defeat Earl Spey, as long as those battleships are concentrated at the entrance of the Azores Strait, Earl Spey is It is absolutely impossible to enter, and the bomber attack is also not possible, because the distance is a bit far... What is unexpected is that the root cause of the Russian defeat this time has been planted a few months ago. And it was the British who buried this fleet with their own hands!
Earl Spey came to the prince's headquarters on the third day, and after hearing the plan, the earl said that his fleet had no problems, as long as enough shells could be replenished, then everything would be fine! It is even possible to remove the small and medium caliber artillery on the battleship and use it as army artillery.
After receiving the earl's guarantee, the prince began to seriously prepare for this battle. After the First World War in Greece, even though the troops participating in the war had been rested for at least a month, several troops did not carry out any major battles within 3 months. It can be said that the state of the battle is very good, so the prince directly mobilized 2 Bavarian divisions and 2 Austrian divisions as the main force of this battle.
So in the vast area from the Balkans, the Black Sea, and Ukraine, the Bavarian Army, the Russian Army, and the Austro-Hungarian Army are all tacitly preparing for the next battle. With the passage of time, the battle that will determine the fate of Russia is gradually coming to an end. At this time, Borusinov suddenly discovered a serious problem-behind the Hungarian Army, a brand new German Army appeared On the front line!
Under the urging of Grand Duke Karl, General von Seckert had to prepare a division to fill the front line first, and the Russians obtained this information through the counterintelligence system of the Hungarian Legion like a sieve! The sudden appearance of the German Legion made Borusinov feel uneasy. What he is most worried about now is that the Bavarian Legion stationed in the Balkans has no pressure, so he turned back to the Eastern Front...
"According to our inside information, this is not Prince Ruprecht's Bavarian Army, but the Prussian Army drawn from the Western Front. Although there are a large number of people, they did not carry too many artillery and weapons due to the long journey. Heavy weapons, even because their logistics system is not compatible with the Hungarian side, so there will not be a lot of ammunition. Overall, this should be a toothless tiger." Fortunately, at the critical moment, the words of the chief of staff gave Borusinov's courage to continue fighting,
"It seems that I scare myself." Borusinov, who had been psychologically shadowed by the prince, couldn't help but wiped his cold sweat.
Then reorganize the previous information. Although the German army has indeed appeared in an established system, judging from the long defense line, this is at most a short distance, and there has been no increase in the follow-up. Therefore, the scale of the German army is not too large.
Why are the Germans so powerful? The most critical thing is the 72 artillery pieces and more than 200 machine guns assigned to each division. And if these equipment shrink, then it is really a toothless tiger. To be honest, the quality of the individual soldiers of the European powers is actually not much different, the difference is in the equipment. If everyone were to shoot with rifles, Borusinov would be a worthy opponent.
Although he was comforted in his heart, but based on the principle of despising the opponent strategically and paying attention to the opponent tactically, when facing the German elite, Borusinov still gave them a big gift. In front of the frontal German division, Borusinov is equipped with the strength of 3 divisions! And allocated an artillery brigade directly under the group army to this offensive force! A group of more than 120 3-inch and 107MM artillery pieces and 12 152MM heavy howitzers hit von Seckert's head. The German general was unlucky. The Russians are thinking about it!
After all, the Russians have a first-mover advantage, and their preparations are obviously faster than Prince Leopold's troops and the prince's troops. There is no way, Prince Leopold has to consider dozens The problem of the ten thousand army crossing the river, it can even be said that fighting the Russians is not a problem, the biggest problem is how to transport hundreds of thousands of troops and tens of thousands of tons of supplies there! Not to mention the prince's troops, it was relatively late to prepare for this battle, and they had to mobilize troops from the Balkans to launch a landing battle across the Black Sea with the cooperation of the navy. Therefore, needless to say, the Russians will Attack first!
After 7 weeks of preparations, the first wave of offensive troops composed of 400,000 Russian troops has launched along the Diingulets River! Behind them is the mobilization division newly recruited by the Russians in 7 weeks. This is the troop accumulated by Borusinov after further squeezing the human resources in southern Russia. The size of this troop is about 10 divisions and about 15 Thousands of people up and down. More than 1,500 artillery pieces of various calibers were assigned to the front line, and in order to ensure the smooth progress of this battle, more than 150 aircraft gathered from various places were also incorporated into the offensive cluster. However, due to the scarcity and backward performance, They can only undertake reconnaissance tasks.
"I've already thrown all the sieves on the table, so good, from now on, leave everything to the frontline soldiers and God!" After listening to the report of his subordinates, Borusinov sighed, Then he signaled to follow the established plan, and this day happened to be July 8, 1913. The Russian operation, code-named the Borusinov Offensive, would be launched in three days.
At the same time, the Bavarian Army commanded by Prince Leopold on the northern front will launch a campaign code-named "North Wind" in 10 days, aiming to break through the Dnieper and bring the northeastern part of Poland under control. in, and in the Balkan direction. The landing operation plan code-named "Castle" commanded by the prince himself will start in 20 days. At this moment, not only the Russians bet all the chips, but the prince also bet most of the chips, and the jackpot of this gamble is Russia's national fortune!
