Chapter 660： Mochi (1/2)

Under the roar of artillery, the sky gradually faded, and the shouts of screaming in the distance continued to sound, maybe thousands of bodies would be added tomorrow morning.

Marshal Mao Qi, who has just arrived at the front, picked up the telescope and stared at the front. Because the distance is too far, only the smoke from the shell explosion can be seen.

A moment later, Mao Qi sighed. The situation is much worse than he expected. Judging from the artillery fire, we know that the Russians are no longer what they used to be.

Night fell and the two sides stopped fighting tacitly. The wind began to anger, and seemed to awaken the dead soul.

In General Command, Marshal Mao Qi, who came to oversee the battle, began to explode.

”It's been a week since the war broke out, and a little Brest didn't take it down. It's really a bunch of waste.

say something! In normal times, aren't you very capable? No one is on the list, boasting that they defeated Russia for three months and went to St. Petersburg for a military parade within six months.

Now, none of Brest can take it. Not to mention the military parade to St. Petersburg, and if we go on like this, our strategy of cutting off the Dnieper River will go bankrupt. ”

The crowd bowed their heads listening to the teachings, and the battle was really bad.

According to the General Staff's plan, the general army should capture Brest within three days, then go down the Dnieper River to capture Kiev and cut off the water supply channel for the Russian army.

The core of this strategy is to be fast. The Russians are short of everything. Once the tsarist government responded and a large number of reinforcements arrived, the war would not be easy to fight.

This is a historical lesson. The fact that the British and French coalition forces used blood in the first Near East war tells the world that the fully armed and well-equipped Russian army is the backbone.

As long as the Dnieper River is in the hands of the Russian army, Austrian supplies can be transported continuously, and the war will evolve into a war of attrition.

Southwest Commander Hohenlohe Ingelfingen stubbornly replied, ”His Marshal, the enemy is more stubborn than we thought. In these seven days, we have fought dozens of times head-on.

Although we have the upper hand most of the time, it is still not optimistic in general. The strength of the Russian army was replenished very quickly, and the troops at war with us had changed three waves.

You may not believe that they not only stay in place, but also often launch counterattacks.

According to the intelligence detected, there are 80,000 Russian troops guarding Brest and 100,000 Russian troops in the Warren region, not to mention the continuous reinforcements in the rear.

The commander of the Russian army opposite is a group of lunatics, who do not take the life of soldiers as one thing at all, and often deliberately exchange with us.

Within a week, our Southwest Front had lost the strength of two divisions. In a short time, it is almost impossible to make a breakthrough here. ”

There is no way, strategy can't be kept secret at all. The general army wanted to cut off the Dnieper River, and the Russian army naturally did not agree.

As an enemy, naturally stare at each other. Especially after the birth of the airship force, Russian airships cross-border investigations are carried out every day, and large numbers of troops are deployed, making it difficult to keep secrets.

Mochi frowned, and he knew that he couldn't win the Brest Fortress, and the main responsibility was not on these officers. The battlefield must rely on strength to speak. The general army has no overwhelming advantage, and it is normal to fall into a stalemate.

The strategic plan formulated by the General Staff: attack Estonia, make a foray into St. Petersburg, attract the main forces of the Russian army, and create opportunities for seizing Kiev.

However, plans have not changed quickly. The goal of attracting the main force of the Russian army was achieved, and the first step to capture Kiev was stuck.

No matter how good the strategy is, it will not hold up the czar government. The Russians had more garrisons than the generals that launched the attack, and things were awkward.

Not only here, the Russian military strength on the entire front is dominant. With all their strength, the Popo Federation had only gathered 750,000 troops on the battlefield, and the number of Russian troops opposite had already exceeded one million.

Mao Qi shook his head: ”We don't have that much time. If we can't seize Kiev before winter comes and cut off the transport line of the Dnieper River, the next year will be very troublesome.

No matter how difficult it is, we must complete this strategy. Otherwise, the enemy will directly drag us to death by virtue of their strength.

To tell you the truth, not only is Brest's offensive offensive blocked, it is the same throughout the battlefield.

Over the past decade, the enemy has built a lot of fortifications. With so many lines of defense, how can it be torn in a short time? ”

Speaking of this, Mao Qi sneered and sneered, ”Why, are you afraid?”

”Not afraid!”

”Not afraid!”

...

As a group of warmongers, how could it be so easy to be afraid? The war has just begun and it is normal to encounter difficulties. No matter how optimistic people are, they will not think that they can defeat the Russian army in just one week.

Compared with the last war, the situation is much better now. At that time, when the war broke out, the Russians pressed the generals and they were eventually overturned.

”Since you're not afraid, don't make excuses. Set your heart down and find a way to tear open the enemy's defense.
