Chapter 700: Trapped Beasts Still Fighting

Ever since he learned that he was an abandoned son, Obodo's whole person has been bad. I greeted the Ivanov family over and over again in my heart, but on the face I had to show a confident look to appease the military.

At this point, no matter how unwilling he is in his heart, Obodo can only bite the bullet and play with the enemy.

It is impossible to surrender. His roots are all in Russia, and his wife, children, and children are still waiting for him to return to reunite.

It's not just that he has no choice, it's the same for all the senior leaders of the Fourth Army. Either block the enemy's attack and drag it until reinforcements arrive; or die in battle and cover up mistakes with blood donations.

Under the strong desire to survive, people can always explode superpowers.

The senior officials of the Fourth Army are now starting to break out. In order to stabilize the military officers who used to be high in the military, they all go down to the troops to ask for warmth, and from time to time they get close to the front line to boost morale.

In order to save food, Obodo even ordered the cancellation of the officers' cafeteria, and all officers and soldiers ate together. Etiquette and inferiority are nothing in the face of survival.

The officers can't understand whether they want to understand. The materials that are dropped by the air now are all of the same standard. They are all high-calorie food for the soldiers, and there is no officer's meal at all.

Everyone knows that this private action has offended Marshal Ivanov, and no one dares to report it at this time.

Due to the limited capacity of the airship, weapons and ammunition must also be transported. In order to save capacity, the food delivered, except for the compressed biscuits, is all meat.

This time, the Russian army's military requirements are closer to the British army, mainly beef jerky and biscuits, and a small amount of canned fish, as if the meat suddenly became worthless overnight.

Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth and biting the beef jerky with difficulty, Obodo swore that he had never eaten such junk food.

Unable to eat it, Obodo opened the can of fish and read the text on the label to know that it was produced in Austria again. If nothing else, it should be the cheapest freshwater fish.

This is a characteristic of Europe. Affected by industrial development, the rivers are seriously polluted, and many people do not eat freshwater fish. If there are fewer eaters, it will naturally be worthless.

This cheap raw material has become the favorite of capitalists. Who knows where these fish come from, as long as they're canned?

"The water is polluted, the fish is in trouble". As long as there is no immediate food poisoning, latent hazards are nothing at all.

Especially those exported to the Russian army, the quality is not guaranteed, many unscrupulous businessmen are mixed with cheap potato flour, and the fish is only a small part.

So many shortcomings are still favored by the tsarist government procurement department for only one reason - cheap.

Not only canned fish, but beef jerky and compressed biscuits purchased by the Russians are the cheapest products.

Cheap is not good, since it is the cheapest commodity, the quality will not be guaranteed.

Enduring the discomfort, Obodo ate the canned fish. As for the beef jerky, he should leave it to someone with better teeth. He had no luck.

Although canned fish doesn't taste very good, there is one thing to be commended. The meat of the canned fish is specially treated, and both the bones and bones can be eaten directly.

Time waits for no one on the battlefield, and it is definitely inappropriate to slowly remove the fishbone. In line with the principle that the customer is God, capitalists naturally have to meet this reasonable requirement.

Chemical treatment, bones and spines can be eaten. Sequelae doesn't matter, as long as people eat it without problems in a short time.

Just about to rest for a while, a young officer broke into the headquarters and approached to report: "General, the enemy has launched an attack again, and the 41st Division is asking for fire support."

Looking at the combat map, Obodo frowned and asked: "Didn't they already send an artillery regiment to them, why do they need fire support?"

The young officer explained: "The enemy's firepower was too strong, and our artillery was completely suppressed, so..."

Before he could finish speaking, Oboto waved his hand to stop him: "Okay, tell the 41st Division to find a way, I don't have artillery to reinforce them now.

The enemy's firepower is too strong, then dodge first. Now is an extraordinary period, don't be idle at night, you can divide a part of the soldiers to dig anti-gun holes.

The enemy rushed up and fought bayonets with them. Now that we are besieged, we must not be able to match the enemy in terms of firepower, but we can be more afraid of death than them. "

This is not good in the plain area. If you want to seize the favorable terrain, you must not occupy it. If the 180-meter-high bunker counts as a mountain, now the Fourth Army is also surrounded by mountains and rivers.

Obodo can be sure that the enemy is not willing to fight with them, otherwise the attack will not be so small.

It is normal operation to attack piecemeal, constantly destroying their military morale and strategic materials, and finally forcing them to surrender.

If in order to annihilate the Fourth Army and pay 100,000 or 80,000 casualties, the Prussian Army will lose if it wins.

...

At the Prussian Army Headquarters, Mao Qi dragged his head with one hand and fell into deep thought.

The plan did not change quickly. Originally, I wanted to use the Fourth Army as a bait to attract the main force of the Russian army to come and implement the plan of encirclement and annihilation. I did not expect that the Russians would not be fooled at all.

As a result, the Russian Fourth Army became a problem, containing a large number of Prussian troops, preventing them from advancing or retreating.

If they had attacked the Fourth Army from the very beginning and did not give them a chance to set up camp, the problem would have been solved by now.

There is no if on the battlefield, misjudging the importance of the Fourth Army to the Russians, underestimating Ivanov's determination, this bitter fruit can only be swallowed by Mao Qi himself.

The Battle of East Prussia has begun

, the battle on the southern front is about to break out, and the battle of Warsaw actually started.

The Russian army launched an attack from both sides of the northeast. Since the Fourth Russian Army contained a large number of troops of the Prussian army, the Warsaw battlefield could only stick to it.

The beep of the phone rang, awakening Mao Qi who was in deep thought, and he picked up the microphone and put it to his mouth and shouted loudly, "I'm Mao Qi, what's the matter?"

A hoarse voice came: "Marshal, Commander of the Seventh Division, Winslet, is reporting to you. The enemy to the north has suddenly increased the intensity of their offensive, and our defense line is in jeopardy. Request for support."

It is unrealistic for a division to block an army, let alone an army with a huge size like the Russians, it is even more impossible.

The crisis of the defense line is inevitable. The seventh division was able to block the enemy for three days before asking for help. It has performed very well.

Mao Qi frowned: "Major General Winslet, the 11th Division will come over tomorrow to take over your defense. Is there any problem with holding on for another day?"

There was silence on the other side of the phone, and after a while, the hoarse voice sounded again: "No problem, Marshal!"

There was a heavy tone in his tone, as if he had made a decision after a difficult inner struggle.

After hanging up the phone, Mao Qi instructed an officer not far away: "Send electricity to General Hansgrohe immediately, so that he must eat the Russian Fourth Army within a week.

Tell him that the fish to the north have taken the bait, and stop delaying time for a caged bird, and the fish will run away. "

Trapped beasts are still fighting, let alone people?

Knowing that now is the time when the enemy's resistance is the most fierce, Mao Qi can only give this order. If the Russian Fourth Army is left behind, there will be problems on the Warsaw battlefield.

Don't look at the well-established defense line established by the Commonwealth of Pope in Warsaw, but no matter how strong the defense line is, people need to be guarded.

What's more, Mao Qi didn't want to defend Warsaw, but wanted to inflict heavy damage on the Russian army on the Warsaw battlefield, which required more troops.

In order to besiege the Fourth Army, the Prussian Army invested nearly 600,000 troops. Originally, it was to encircle the point to fight for reinforcements. Now that the enemy's reinforcements are not coming, it is worthless to delay it.

Although knowing that this order is issued, the front line will suffer heavy losses, but these sacrifices are necessary for the overall situation on the battlefield.

The grim situation told him that the Battle of Warsaw had to be resolved quickly, and that the Berlin government needed a big victory to pull allies on board, even if it was a big victory with heavy casualties.

"Yes, Marshal!" replied the young officer
