Eastern Front.

From June 41 of the Barbarossa Plan to August now, this war has been fought for three years and two months.

At the beginning of the battle, the German Blitzkrieg shocked the world, the annihilation of millions of Slavs, the surrender of surrender, and the world saw the true power of tank clusters for the first time.

However, the world is unpredictable, and no one can predict it.

Followed by

Outside Mosco, the Blitzkrieg was mired, the German Blade was held to death, and half a million Germanic elites were buried in the bitter cold.

In Staringrad, seven months of brutal street fighting, including the Sixth Army, buried 700,000 German cannon fodder in the streets.

At this point, the world once again saw the vast depth of the Slavs, the Mosco cold that once held Napoleon's army in check, and the tenacity of the polar bear.

The fortress plan by mid-to-late forty-three years failed, and due to the loss of a large number of armored forces, Germany completely lost its offensive capability.

The situation on the Eastern Front changed abruptly.

From this moment on, the Slavs in droves waved their whips and launched a counterattack with their T34s, and the Germans set up mules and horses, pushed tigers and leopards, and began to defend with their tails between their legs.

It was also from that day on.

Germany is getting weaker and weaker, and the Slavs are getting stronger and stronger.

Again, the world is impermanent, and no one can predict it.

Since mid-June this year, the situation has changed dramatically again.

Then.

The world's new rogue Germany and the world's old madman Slav have been switching offense and defense for almost a year.

The departure of Marshal Manstein and Marshal Kleist, the veteran German generals, announced the complete end of mobile warfare, and the Eastern Front began to implement hard defensive tactics from the Führer.

Fortunately, after a year of defense, the German hooligans summed up a great deal of experience in defensive operations, and the defense in depth was perfect.

At this time, the Germans had defensive positions as deep as 80 to 120 kilometers, and the construction of the positions had been tempered by many actual battles and tended to mature, and there were basically no major areas of loopholes.

Even though the strength of the German rapid forces at this time was far behind that of the Slavs, several Panzer armies were only superficial, and the seven Panzer armies formed by the Slavs were essentially almost indistinguishable from ordinary infantry, and were directly deployed on the positions.

In other words, the Germans don't actually have a strong reserve force for rapid reactions.

There is also a serious shortage of supplies.

But the Slavic offensive was still very difficult.

Fighting time and time again has forcefully proved that it is very difficult to break through the enemy's well-prepared defensive positions, and the attacking troops must pay a very high price.

As a Slav who has fought several classic defensive battles, the Slavs who are proficient in defensive warfare naturally know this truth.

Like their rough character, the Slavs came up with a very simple and crude strategy, that is, to concentrate more troops, more artillery, and more tanks, like a 'giant hammer' to smash the enemy's defenses.

To put it simply, it is to carry out comprehensive fire suppression of the enemy's defensive positions by equipping the attacking infantry with a large number of tanks and artillery, so as to complete a forced breakthrough from the front, take advantage of the enemy's lack of rapid mobile reserves, and the inability to plug the gap in time, quickly expand the gap, break through deeply, and divide and encircle and annihilate the enemy army.

When there is superiority in troops, firepower, and armor, this trick has been tried and tested repeatedly.

But in mid-June.

Without warning, the German Eastern Front suddenly pulled out more than 5,000 No. 4 tanks, twice as many armored vehicles, and more than 2,000 guns of more than 100 calibers, and even most of them were large-caliber long-range suppression guns such as 128 and 150.

More than 5,000 tanks, a full five fully formed mechanized group armies, completely reversed the situation of the armored forces of both sides.

Nearly 10,000 armored vehicles relying on half-tracks made up for the serious lack of mobility of the German rogue infantry, as well as the lack of troop traction capacity and transportation capacity.

Nearly 2,000 large-caliber guns, not much, but also made it possible for the artillery of both sides to fight back and forth, and with sufficient supplies, it could even gradually suppress the Slavic artillery clusters.

Suddenly, in addition to the troops, the strength of the Slavic cattle and the German hooligans reversed.

In mid-to-late July, with the arrival of more tanks, armored vehicles, and artillery, even the German Servant Army was stuffed with a large amount of weapons and equipment, and its strength increased greatly, so that the Slavs had to divide more troops to contain them.

Fortunately, Germany did not seem to have expected this batch of equipment, and the troops were not fully familiar with the performance of the tanks and armored vehicles in their hands, and even some tank crews rushed into battle in the absence of members, coupled with the frequent intervention of the hysteria, which gave the Slavs a great opportunity.

Fortunately for the former, the excellent quality of the soldiers allowed the troops to quickly adapt to the new tanks, armored vehicles, and artillery, and fully exploit the strength of these more advanced weapons and equipment.

But the latter, the interruption of the battle situation was extremely serious, and a large number of fighters were lost, which was comparable to an army group of the enemy.

This battle lasted for a month and a half.

It starts in mid-June and ends in early August.

In this battle, the two sides reproduced and even far surpassed the armor glory of the fortress plan, and more than 10,000 tanks fought against each other, and also copied or even far surpassed the data of the fortress plan.

The combined losses of both sides in tanks and armored vehicles exceeded five figures, and the combined losses in troops exceeded seven figures.

Note that here are losses, not casualties.

After this battle, the Eastern Front fell into complete silence, although the German hooligans won a big victory, the tanks and armored vehicles in their hands were still full, and the losses of troops in the previous battles were too much.

In this engagement, the loss of troops was not small.

Equipment can be replenished at any time, supplies can be replenished at any time, but people are not so fast, even if they are lightly wounded, they need at least two months to recover, and they are unable to launch an attack in a short time.

The Slavs too, lost too many soldiers, too many technical weapons, and urgently needed to replenish them.

But neither the intermittent hysteria nor the bearded man with a pipe in his mouth can accept the current situation, and they are secretly accumulating strength, and the dark tide is surging under the calm eastern line.

A much larger storm began to brew.

During this time, something very interesting happened.

There is always no shortage of grass in the world, especially in the plains of Europe, and it is a big handful, yesterday I followed this big brother, hugged my thighs, and shouted my loyalty, but today I saw that the situation was not good, and quickly replaced, hugged the new big brother before, and fought against the immersed boss.

However, in essence, this is actually the sorrow of the weak.

After successfully blocking the Slavic counterattack and stabilizing the defensive line, Santa Claus's hometown, the Land of a Thousand Lakes, who was originally ready to surrender, immediately braked and continued to hold on to Germany's thigh.

Meantime.

With the abundance of supplies for the new German hooligans, especially the unthinkable abundance of food, cotton, medicine, and fuel in the warehouses, the hysterical patient seemed to be ill after filling his own warehouse.

Suddenly, there was a show of mercy and an order to give the nations sufficient supplies.

Food, clothing, medicines, fuel, all were sufficient, and the light industry of various countries was organized and expanded to meet the needs of the German people and the army, and then the printing mark was purchased.

After all, there are only grain, weapons, fuel, medicines, military trucks, etc. in the warehouses, and there are no such goods as clothes, shoes, cars, etc.

This hand suddenly made the original undercurrent of resistance in various countries stagnate.

Human beings are really a creature that is difficult to understand.

Being invaded by the enemy, causing him to starve for years, being bullied for several years, being wantonly captured by the enemy of the domestic elite, full of hatred, but suddenly, the enemy showed great mercy.

A large number of orders pounced, brandishing the mark to purchase frantically, and let go of the warehouse, giving enough supplies of food, fuel, medicine, etc., it can be said that food, drink, use, everything.

A large number of jobs have been spread, a large number of marks have flowed into the hands of people in the countries of the European plains, and it is visible to the naked eye that life has improved, prices are only stable, and there are enough materials, even better than in the countries before them.

The surging revolt dissipated suddenly, leaving only a few waves.

For example, in a place called Waves, the scale of the uprising was directly reduced to less than one-tenth of the scale.

Of course, to be the head of state, the hysterian is not a fool, he naturally has his own ideas.

He understood the shortcomings of Germany, the lack of population, the lack of soldiers, and he set his sights on the occupied areas, albeit of inferior quality. But when cannon fodder starts no problem.

He organized people to propagate brainwashing, branded himself as a good person, demonized his enemies, and was shot in public with several scapegoats for corruption and bribery, and soon, the hatred was diverted.

As a result, the guerrillas, who had been in turmoil, suddenly found that there were many, many fewer people supporting them, and many members of the team also left one after another, and some even joined the enemy's troops.

·····

"Chen Fan?"

Mosco, in a palace, the bearded man with a pipe in his mouth looked at the investigative information in his hand, and frowned:

"This person provided them with equipment, ammunition, supplies?"

It is easy to investigate the sudden appearance of new tanks, armored vehicles, artillery, automobiles, and a large amount of fuel oil that appeared in Germany, and the grain that necessarily did not produce the Germans themselves.

"Yes."

Wiping the sweat drops from his forehead, the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs replied.

His tone of reply trembled slightly.

This tremor was apparently noticed by the bearded man with the pipe in his mouth, and he understood that there was something wrong with the investigation, so much so that he took off his beloved pipe and stared at the person in charge, his brow furrowed even deeper.

"Where is he?"

"Which faction you belong to?"

"By what means?"

Chen Fan, the bearded man knows this person.

A long time ago, this person appeared in intelligence about the battlefield of the Republic of China, and the intelligence said that at that time, this person provided a large amount of materials, equipment, and even industrial facilities to the guerrillas in the mountainous areas of the Republic of China.

Including tanks, planes, artillery, and million-ton steel plants.

It caused great trouble to the Japanese, forcing the Japanese to constantly draw the Kwantung Army to deal with it, and even then it failed one after another.

But at that time, his main attention was on the Eastern Front, so he didn't pay much attention to it, and it was a good thing for himself that the gang became stronger.

Because of this incident, the other side asked the guerrillas to provide some information about Chen Fan and the source of the materials, but the other party refused, and some small frictions occurred between the two sides, and the relationship was downgraded.

None of that matters, though.

No matter who Chen Fan is or which force he belongs to, as long as he finds the location of his base and finds the transportation route of equipment and materials, he can cut off his aid to the Germans.

He believes that the power is spread all over the world, and allies with absolute naval superiority have this strength.

"It's not clear."

The person in charge wiped his forehead and lowered his tone several points.

As soon as these words came out, the bearded man with the pipe in his mouth suddenly changed his complexion.

At this time, he was thinking about whether it was time to change to a more capable person, tens of thousands of tanks, armored vehicles, and car supplies, and the source of the materials could not be found, and such a simple thing could not be completed.

The person in charge seemed to see something, and immediately added:

"We have contacted our British and American allies, and they are also trying their best to investigate this Chen Fan, and the investigation has taken longer than ours, but there are also no investigation results, not only the forces to which they belong, the transportation route, the production base have not been found, and even the appearance of this person is not clear."

"We also looked through the Japanese information through the intelligence officers, and they did not find any useful information, the only thing we know is that this person first appeared four and a half years ago, in Cangyunling, Shanxi."

"The Germans are the same, they are also investigating, but there is no useful intelligence."

Hearing this, the bearded pipe almost fell off.

This news is really beyond his expectations.

The Japanese, the British, the Germans, the Americans, and then themselves, gathering several of the most powerful countries in the world, could not investigate this person, which the bearded man could not have imagined.

"Continue the investigation."

"Find this person at all costs."

"I'm going to see the news in a month."

After a moment of silence, the pipe was slammed against the table, and the ash was blown away in a fierce tone:

"Otherwise······"

"Yes."

The head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs was dripping with cold sweat.

The enemy has received assistance, his own troops have suffered heavy losses and losses, and once he cannot find out the source of the enemy's large quantities of supplies, it is his serious problems and mistakes, and the results that await him may not be good.

No one can protect him.

At this time, the person in charge suddenly thought of the person who had been in contact with Chen Fan four years ago.

That group of people has a good relationship with themselves, so they can test it appropriately, or influence it, or at most, they can put pressure directly, as long as they can get intelligence, anyway, it's just a local force.

"Leader."

A general interjected:

"The most important thing now is how to solve the current crisis, rather than cutting off the Germans' material routes."

"In the last battle, we lost too much."

"Today, almost all the units on the front line have less than one-fifth of the tanks and artillery at full strength, and the ammunition is also exhausted, and many units have lost up to one-third."

"What we have to do is to quickly replenish our troops, replenish tanks, artillery, and ammunition, so that the troops can recover their combat effectiveness as soon as possible."

"Otherwise, once the Germans attack, we will not be able to stop it."

"You know, in the German troops, tanks and artillery are very sufficient, several times more than ours, and now they are not attacking because of insufficient troops, and muddy roads are blocking them."

"Once they have replenished their forces, they will inevitably attack again."

The general's words fell, and suddenly, a guy with a round belly and a rich appearance waved his hand and shouted:

"Conscription."

"To continue conscription, we need more troops, so that more people can participate in the defense of the motherland."

"As for supplies, we can ask our allies for them."

"This month, the allies are providing twice as much supplies every day as before, and we can get them to provide tanks, planes, artillery, and ammunition."

Except for this one's howl, the rest of the high-ranking people and generals in the palace fell silent.

This matter is more imminent, but it is also more tricky.

They all know very well that until the war has been fought, their own side has reached the limit, whether it is population mobilization, or material supply and production, it is already the absolute limit.

If it weren't for the successive victories and breathing a sigh of relief since last year, the front-line troops would probably have collapsed.

There is really no way to speed up the conscription and the production of weapons and materials.

The factory is already the limit, the production of tanks cannot be accelerated, as for the replenishment of conscription, it is simply impossible, now the domestic mobilization is already the limit, there are so many additional soldiers, and no matter how hard it is increased, there will be problems with the foundation.

But at this time, the front line was precarious, and the German attack was imminent, and from the thousands of tanks that were replenished again, it was foreseeable that the next attack would be extremely large, and they would need more troops and more tanks to defend.

The demand is high, and even the transfer of troops around Mosco is seriously insufficient, and even if the replenishment of allies is doubled, it is far from enough.

Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, the rich guy thought about it, and suddenly continued to shout:

"We still have the Far Eastern Army."

"Where are there 250,000 troops, 100,000 additional soldiers, more than 1,000 tanks, more than 2,000 artillery pieces (including mortars)."

"Anyway, the Japanese are no longer a threat now, there is no need for so many garrisons here, and we have signed a non-interference pact with the Japanese."

As the words fell, the eyes of the generals and the bearded man with a pipe in the palace suddenly lit up slightly.
