At the moment in 1915, the total length of the Western Front exceeded 500 kilometers, and the total strength of the two sides on the Western Front was close to 10 million.

With so many people crammed into such a small area, there was no way to talk about tactics such as roundabout flanking attacks, and there was only one way to defeat the enemy, a frontal assault.

Frontal assault is the tactic that Roque is most reluctant to use, in the third year of the world war, the level of the British and French forces and the German army digging trenches has advanced by leaps and bounds, and the protective capabilities of the trenches are becoming more and more perfect.

The Anglo-French forces of Xia Fei and Haig were called butchers, and the German side of the German side commanded the Battle of Verdun Crown Prince Wilhelm was not much better, but because Crown Prince Wilhelm was a member of the royal family, the German newspapers were merciful, but that did not change the fact that the German army also suffered heavy casualties.

Roque's biggest advantage is that he will not be as conformist as Xia Fei or Haig, and has a higher degree of freedom to command operations, if Haig commands the attack in Belgium, then the expeditionary force's attack in Belgium may most likely evolve into another Verdun or the Somme, and even if Haig finds an opportunity, he will probably not send troops to land behind the German lines.

Joint operations involving multiple arms of the armed forces require close coordination among various arms of the armed forces, and the quality of commanders is very high.

The current British troops have not even learned the most basic infantry and artillery coordination, and letting them carry out the task of rushing to the beach is to send them to death, looking at the performance of the Mediterranean Expeditionary Force in the early stage of the Dardanelles Campaign, it is simply miserable.

In another time and space, during the World War, the Entente and the Central Powers combined had only one successful amphibious landing operation.

This time and space is much better, and the British Expeditionary Force alone has successfully carried out two amphibious landings.

The Battle of the Dardanelles, although the amphibious landing did not play a decisive role, became the pinning down of the Ottoman Fifth Army in the Garibaldi Peninsula, and in this sense, the amphibious landing of the Battle of the Dardanelles was also successful.

Hindenburg, who had just served as the commander-in-chief of the German army, and Ludendorff, who served as the chief of the general staff of the German army, never expected that the British expeditionary force would attack so sharply after the change of commander, the territory of Belgium was the German First Army, and when the world war broke out, the commander of the First Army was Alexander Crook, because he missed the opportunity to occupy Paris in the Battle of the Marne, Alexander Crook was dismissed after the Battle of the Marne, and the new commander-in-chief was the Duke of Albrecht, in the first Battle of Ypres, It was precisely because of the outstanding performance of the Duke of Albrecht that the German army was able to withstand the attack of the Anglo-French army with a group of newly enlisted reserve recruits.

When Roque took over as commander-in-chief of the British Expeditionary Force, he launched a new offensive in Belgium, and the Germans were defeated, and someone had to be held responsible.

Strictly speaking, the rout of the German army had nothing to do with Duke Albrecht, and the tanks shone on the battlefield on their first appearance, and it was Ludendorf and Hindenburg, who performed well on the Eastern Front, who commanded the German First Army, that could not stop Roque's offensive.

After the capture of the port of Zeebrugge by the 2nd Cavalry Division, Duke Albrecht was dismissed and replaced by Crown Prince Ruprecht of Bavaria, Roque's old rival.

The capture of the port of Zeebrugge, the last port of the German army in the English Channel, without which the German submarines would be left homeless, and never again imagine being as elusive as before.

After the capture of the port of Zeebrugge, the 2nd Cavalry Division, together with the 13th and 15th Divisions, captured Bruges, posing a threat to the flank and rear of Ghent.

Ruprecht had to order the German troops defending the port of Zeebrugge to withdraw on their own initiative, leaving the expeditionary force with only an empty city.

The expeditionary force was not satisfied, and on October 3, the expeditionary force continued to launch simultaneous attacks on Antwerp and Brussels, this time with more tanks involved, and the second batch of tanks purchased by the British government was finally sent to France, this batch of 500 tanks, but for the time being, it could not be fully used.

The problem of the British Expeditionary Force now is that there are tanks, but there are not enough tankers, and the tankmen in southern Africa have all been transferred to France before, so the expeditionary force has to train its own tankmen.

Germany's industrial strength is indeed strong, and only a little more than a month after the tank appeared on the battlefield, the German army has developed a 76 mm anti-tank gun.

The 76-mm anti-tank gun was improved on the basis of the 76-mm field gun, and the German engineers simply improved the structure of the gun mount, and the field gun directly became an anti-tank direct-fire gun.

After equipping the troops with anti-tank guns, the losses of the armored forces skyrocketed, and by October 15, Roque had to stop the offensive, and the desperate resistance of the Germans was an important reason, and another reason was the increasingly cold weather.

This year, snow began to fall in Belgium at the beginning of October, and by October 15, the snow in Brussels was already one meter deep, and it took more than half an hour for tanks to heat up, and the casualties of the troops were increasing.

As the British Expeditionary Force stopped attacking, the French troops were forced to stop, and the Battle of the Somme, which lasted nearly a year, finally ended, in which the British Expeditionary Force suffered 450,000 casualties, the French suffered 340,000 casualties, and the German army suffered 540,000 casualties.

Had it not been for Roque in command at the end of the Battle of the Somme, the casualties of the British Expeditionary Force would have increased further, and the German casualties would have been even less.

Of course, these figures are the official data given by various countries, in addition to these figures, the Entente and the Central Powers also released some data, the British government claimed that in 1915 there were 150,000 people killed on the Western Front, France announced 260,000 sacrifices, Germany released the least data, in the whole of 1915, Germany actually only 143,000 people died on the Western Front.

The Battle of Verdun and the Battle of the Somme both broke out in 1915, the Battle of Verdun lasted from January to November, and the Battle of the Somme also broke out in January, but it was only fought in October that Roque took the initiative to stop the offensive, and the German army lost 433,000 people in Verdun alone, how could it be that only 143,000 people died.

Germany did not have as many experienced doctors and nurses as the British Expeditionary Force, nor did it have well-equipped field hospitals.

In fact, the data released by the British is also discounted, and Roque learned that the total number of British soldiers who died in 1915 should be about 300,000.

This data cannot be published, otherwise Winston will soon be ousted and Britain will withdraw from the war, and democracy and freedom are no joke.

Incidentally, in British government propaganda, about 890,000 German soldiers were killed in 1915, a figure that would have increased tenfold if the wounded were included.

The media of this day and age is so ridiculous.

The point is that there are still people who believe such ridiculous data, which makes Roque really cry and laugh.

The Times played an important role in this wave of publicity, and with the support of Roque's large sums of money, the Times has now surpassed the Daily Mail and the Daily Telegraph in sales to become the most circulated newspaper in the UK.

Miraculously, despite the fact that editors and reporters are full of newspapers, The Times still establishes an impartial and objective image, and is known as the "conscience" of the British press.

By November, the various battlefields were gradually falling silent, and the Battle of Verdun was over, The French army lost 543,000 people, the German army lost 433,000, Verdun became the largest battle in human history, which lasted a whole year, France and Germany suffered heavy losses, the German side directly led to the resignation of Falkingham, Hindenburg and Ludendorff came to power, and the French side did not stop, during the Battle of Verdun, the French government did not dare to settle accounts with Xia Fei, for fear of affecting the morale of the army, and now the Battle of Verdun is finally over, the French government asked Xia Fei to resign for the first time, and the new French commander-in-chief is Robert who performed well in the Battle of VerdunNivelle.

Robert Niveller's outstanding performance really had little to do with Robert Niveller's ability, if it weren't for the British Expeditionary Force's timely launch of the Battle of the Somme, which greatly restrained the German forces, the Battle of Verdun would have ended a few months ago.

There were many factors that affected the outcome of the Battle of Verdun, and Brusinov's offensive in Galicia was also one of the reasons, in order to help the Austro-Hungarian Empire defend, Falkingham transferred the troops originally planned to Verdun to Galicia, which directly led to Falkingham's dismissal.

Wilhelm II did not have the patience of French President Ponngaré, and before the Battle of Verdun was over, Falkingham was dismissed and sent directly to Romania, and the German army was in turmoil, which also affected the morale of the front-line troops.

If this alone is not enough to make Robert Niveller shine, Robert Niveller must definitely thank Roque for his help, it is because Roque started a new offensive in Belgium that Hindenburg had to send troops from Verdun to reinforce Belgium, which directly led to the German army also falling into the predicament of insufficient troops in Verdun.

That's why the Germans took the initiative to abandon their positions many times and returned all the land on the east bank of the Merz River to the French army.

This is all due to Robert Niveller.

At the beginning of November, the Ninth Battle of the Isonzo River ended, and the farce was repeated on the banks of the Isonzo River, and the troops behaving like a joke, and throughout 1915, the Kingdom of Italy and Austria-Hungary lost a total of 140,000 people killed in a series of battles on the Isonzo River.

On 14 November, Robert Nivelle succeeded Chauffeur as the new commander-in-chief of the French army, and Mangin launched several more attacks at Verdun after the Battle of Verdun.

None of these attacks broke through the German lines, and after Ludendorff became chief of the German General Staff, the Germans made rapid progress in civil engineering, and by the end of 1916, Manking had launched four attacks, the only result of which was to add another 45,000 to the French casualty list in 1915.

Look at the efficiency of others, and then look at the Kingdom of Italy and Austria-Hungary, they don't even concentrate on killing, and they really deserve to be expelled from the camp.
