Lin Youde spent the morning in the map room watching the staff officers push those troop symbols around.

The sparse front of the blue logo representing the Russian army has been riddled with attack arrows composed of red signs, and now the dividing line between the two armies is in a state of dog-tooth intertwining, red and blue are entangled, and the blue logo is constantly being taken down - that means that the Russian army there has been defeated or eliminated.

Lin Youde looked at this qiē, and couldn't help but feel like he was playing a map dyeing game like Steel Ambition. Judging from the current situation, the offensive operation is proceeding quite smoothly, and Lin Youde's armored clusters are penetrating in depth from various breakthrough points.

Now the troops deployed by the Russian army on the front line can still organize resistance, but with the deepening of the armored forces, the Russian army's command, communication and supply systems will be paralyzed, and the contact between the forward troops will be cut off.

In those strategy games that Lin Youde was familiar with before the crossing, the effect of interspersing is generally expressed in the form of "organization decline", and the troops whose organization has dropped to zero will often not be eliminated, but will automatically retreat to the nearest map block to rest and recover. But now, Lin Youde is not facing a game, but a real war, and this "decline in organization" is presented to him in a more complex form.

The Russian army on the front line has been cut into countless disconnected parts, completely unable to support each other, ammunition is not replenished, and the wounded are not effectively treated, many of them will quickly lose the will to fight and begin to retreat, others will continue to fight until the ammunition is almost used up, and the most determined troops will hold on until they are truly eliminated.

As long as the morale is high enough and the officers have enough initiative, these units can exert almost the same combat effectiveness as before they were cut and surrounded. For example, in another time and space, an army known for its rustic atmosphere fought the Battle of Hengbao.

The reason why this battle happened was that when the turtle army was strategically interspersed, one division advanced too violently, and the radio station was turned off during the forced march. The Turtle Army was so earthy that it did not have any other radio means except the radio at the division headquarters, so the command organs at all levels of the Turtle Army could not contact this division, and as a result, the order to stop the advance issued by the commander-in-chief of the Turtle Army was not received by the division at all.

So the division went out like a lone hero, and the lone army went deep into the heart of the enemy.

Then the leader of the Guo Army, known as Xiao Zhuge , decisively transferred the main force of his descendant, the Seventh Army, known as the Seventh Army of Steel, to prepare to eat this lonely turtle army division. The Seventh Army of Steel lived up to expectations and completed the division and encirclement of the turtle army troops that had just stopped advancing very quickly.

But to Xiao Zhuge 's expectation, the divided and surrounded turtle army formed a battle group of different sizes on the spot, directly rallying around various grassroots cadres to continue fighting, not only successfully resisting the attack of the Seventh Army of Steel, but also smashing their attempt to annihilate the turtle army that was cut and surrounded one by one. Moreover, these improvised battle groups were able to launch counterattacks and night assaults, and even touched the regimental command organs of the Seventh Army.

The result of the final battle was that the Seventh Army of Steel, which wanted to eat the Turtle Army's division, was surrounded by the swarming Turtle Army's troops, and the battle ended in the victory of the Turtle Army.

The main reason why such a thing can happen is that the morale of the turtle army is high, the fighters have a resolute will to fight, and the level of the commanders and fighters at the grassroots level is also very high.

After all, the turtle army at that time had been fighting for twelve years without interruption, and the commanders and fighters and grassroots combat backbones were all elite soldiers in a hundred battles, and their opponents were already at the end of the strong crossbows, and there was no comparison at all.

Later, when the turtle army encountered American GIs from the United States of America on a certain peninsula, they finally felt the feeling of meeting their opponents in chess.

If the Russian army is like this surrounded turtle division, then Lin Youde is estimated to have a headache, but the current Russian troops definitely do not have such a fighting will and technical and tactical level, maybe a small number of Guards troops may always be stubbornly resisting, but most of the Russian army will quickly lose the desire and ability to fight after finding that they have been isolated and surrounded.

Those troops that have been stubbornly resisting will be taken care of by the follow-up troops, and will be annihilated one by one by superior forces and firepower. In most areas, the second wave of the Wave Offensive will pour into the enemy's zone through the gaps opened in the forward.

The arrows formed by these units will continue to advance in a vertical direction until they are unable to advance further due to their own condition.

The Russian army will not have a chance to retreat and regroup, and the flood of armored and armored hunters (that is, motorized infantry) will wipe out all attempts by the Russian army to form a second line of defense. This is the essence of Lin Youde's theory of rolling offensive, and compared with the theory of blitzkrieg that he copied when the number of armored troops was scarce and the motorized range of the whole army was not high, this kind of rolling offensive can now give full play to the advantages of the German army, which has been fully motorized in just over a year.

When dealing with the British army on the Western Front, Lin Youde was not sure whether this tactic would work, so it was only a limited trial, and the purpose was more to verify the theory of tactics. In order to ensure that the war on the Western Front would not become bad because the new theory did not work, Lin Youde's attack from France through the Ardennes Woodland was still organized according to the theory of armored assault.

Now Lin Youde has completely abandoned the theory of armored assault, allowing the entire Army Group B to launch an unprecedented rolling offensive on the front of the battle with a width of 150 kilometers, and the attack of more than 800,000 troops is rumbling towards the Russian Ukrainian Second Front.

Lin Youde was a little regretful, he couldn't see the scene of his armor cluster rumbling forward with his own eyes, if it was a real-time strategy game, there would definitely be a cutscene or something at this time, but now Lin Youde could only face the map and watch the staff officers constantly adjust the armor signs one by one.

To be honest, it's a little bit boring.

But now that Lin Youde is not good at leaving the map room, such an important offensive, he must make a posture that he cares about very much. The General Staff in Potsdam does not have the function of commanding front-line troops, it is only a military intelligence gathering organ, and its main task is to let Lin Youde accurately grasp the situation on the battlefield.

The supreme commander of this rolling offensive was Manstein in Krakow, and the front-line commander was Heinz, who had already begun to move forward with the troops.

Just when Lin Youde's boredom began to ferment, the door of the map room opened.

Nia poked her head into the map room, glanced at Lin Youde, and said to him with her mouth, "Can I come in?" ”

Lin Youde probably guessed what Nia said, so he nodded, so Nia tiptoed open the door, walked into the map room, and ran to Lin Youde's side with a smoke.

"Is the offensive going well?" Nia asked in a whisper.

"It's very smooth, you see, we have beaten the Russian front into a sieve, and the second wave of attacking troops has already set out to move towards the breakthrough point, and at this time, even if the Russians want to organize a counterattack to block the breakthrough, they don't know which one to block."

"Dad, I don't understand a little, you always say that our troops will cut off the enemy's interconnection after penetration, but on the other hand, aren't our interspersed troops also in a state of being separated by the enemy?"

"That's right, it's true, but the interspersed troops of our army knew in advance that they would encounter such a situation, and they also knew what to do, even if the commander and fighter were mediocre, they would not fall into a situation where they didn't know what to do." Lin Youde stretched out his hand and touched his daughter's head, "This is the advantage of the attacker, our grassroots troops know the overall situation of the battlefield better than the defender and know what is happening." The defenders have a geographical advantage, but if their commanders want to determine the situation, they have to face intricate situations, which are much more difficult than those of the attackers. ”

"But how do I think that this so-called advantage is because we have better communication capabilities than the Russian army?"

"That's one of the reasons." Lin Youde's hand touched the corner on the top of Nia's head, "The ability to communicate can allow those isolated troops to also maintain contact with the higher-level command organs, which can effectively prevent these troops from collapsing." The most terrible thing on the battlefield is loneliness, whether it is an individual or a unit. Once you know that the friendly forces are still fighting and the friendly forces have not forgotten themselves, then the cohesion of the troops will be more or less improved. ”

Lin Youde paused and continued: "The larger the battlefield, the more important the communication ability, like these armored units and motorized infantry that we are breaking through now, because the armored vehicles have radios, so the communication ability is much stronger than the traditional army, so they can fight more independently, when they need fire support, they can use the radio to call the air force or long-range artillery, when they need supplies, they can use the radio to know the location of the supply station, or stay in place to call the transport team to deliver supplies." These are the differences between our army and the Russian army -- and even all traditional armies, so that our army can carry out this kind of rolling offensive operations.

"The Russian army can't roll, their attack tactics are similar to ours, but they are essentially two dimensional tactics, and our rolling offensive destructive power is much more powerful than the one they inherited from Brusinov."

"It sounds like it's not your mind, Dad, that changes the war, it's technological progress."

"That's right. Tactics must always be adapted to the level of equipment, and science and technology are the guarantee of combat effectiveness. Lin Youde said and lowered his head and smiled at his daughter.
