Chapter 1159 Three-Way Army

wolf den.

When the war broke out, the Wolf Den, as the base camp for the war against the Soviet Union, entered a state of full-speed work. Cyric and his senior commanders, although they would not specifically interfere with the decisions of the front-line commanders, they must be To coordinate globally.

So far, the progress has been relatively smooth, especially on the central front, which is the most concerned, two tank groups of our own, like two big pincers, are about to achieve the encirclement of the Soviet army in Minsk.

"In our encirclement, there will be at least 400,000 Soviet troops." Keitel said: "The scale of our battles in the Soviet Union has exceeded any battle in Europe."

This big encirclement is about to close. For everyone, this is the best news. One of the main tasks of this battle is to destroy the enemy's living forces.

"We need to let Guderian on the front line pay attention to the fact that the Soviet army is going to be trapped and fighting. They can easily escape through the forest area. Let Guderian deploy troops on the periphery of the forest and capture all these enemies." Cyric said.

There is almost no difference between now and in history, and Cyric has been able to think of the results.

This large encirclement of Belarus in history was a beautiful victory. It captured more than 300,000 people in the Soviet Union. The Western Special Military Region was completely destroyed, which was a heavy blow to the entire Soviet Union.

On the other hand, we have done a more perfect job than in history, trying to prevent the Soviets from escaping.

Historically, the entire siege was quite chaotic. The Soviet establishment was broken. Sadly, even people like the army commander were not withdrawn. They were killed when they broke through. Fortunately, it was not just the troops. They ran out, and even the cook memorized the pot. They didn't even go hungry and ran all the way to Moscow.

Now, the armored strength of Germany has been several times in history, and this encirclement must be completely wrapped so that the Soviets cannot escape.

"After these people are captured, we will start building a Belarusian Liberation Army." Cyric said to his men.

Historically, Hitler has always believed that the pure Germans are the strongest in combat, and he was quite repulsive to arm these prisoners. It was not until 1943 or 1944 that he was relieved and used these prisoners to Make up for the insufficiency of your own army.

Cyric doesn't have so many concerns. There are still many battles to come. Now, isn't it good to select some of these prisoners and drive them to fight the Soviets?

Don't worry about their loyalty, even when they just joined the Belarusian Liberation Army, they still carried some luck, as long as their hands are stained with the blood of the Soviets, they will never turn back. After all, for any country In other words, they may spare the enemy, but they will never spare the traitor.

"There is also the Ukrainian Liberation Army, which should also be on the agenda." On the side, Scherner said. The siege of Belarus is just around the corner, and in Ukraine, in a few days, the siege of Kyiv will capture a large number of enemies.

Not only the Belarusian Liberation Army, but also the Ukrainian Liberation Army. In short, in the wolf's lair, the battle against the Soviets is quite optimistic, and everyone's faces are filled with the joy of victory.

"Our southern corps encountered a Stalin tank. According to our soldiers, our latest armor-piercing projectile was unable to penetrate the main armor of the Stalin tank." Holding a report, Keitel said to Cyric.

In the Stry River, a battle of thousands of tanks broke out. This battle almost wiped out the main tank troops of the Soviet Southwest Front. At the same time, this battle also broke out many problems.

For example, how to deal with the problem of Stalin tanks.

Cyric nodded: "Send the captured tanks back to Krupp's engineers to study and see what's going on."

After the battle, a large number of Soviet tanks were left on the battlefield, some of which were destroyed, and some were mechanically faulty. To find the cause, you must rely on military experts in the rear. The armor thickness of Stalin tanks is supposed to be easy to be destroyed The shelling armor-piercing projectile of one's own side penetrated.

The three-way army, both of which are progressing smoothly, Cyric's eyes, looking to the north, where there is another army advancing.

In history, the Central Corps and the Southern Corps kept advancing, creating miracles one after another, but the Northern Corps did nothing. They were trapped in front of Petersburg and fought for several years until Germany began to retreat. This is simply a disgrace to the Germanic army.

Cyric would not have watched such a thing happen.

In fact, there are not too many strategic places in the north. The latitude is too high and it is extremely cold. For Germany, even if it has the land there, it is not very useful. It is not worth the loss of wasting too many troops there. .

However, in the north, there is a place that must be taken down, which is Petersburg. (In order to avoid suspicion, we will basically call it Petersburg in the future, please understand.)

Petersburg, formerly known as Petrograd, is Russia's "Window to Europe" established by Peter the Great in 1703. It has been the capital of the vast Russian Empire for more than 200 years, so it has important political significance.

At the same time, it is also the birthplace of the October Revolution, which was later renamed Leningrad and is known as the second capital of the Soviet Union. It is the largest industrial center and the second largest transportation hub in the Soviet Union. There are ten railway lines running through it. The October railway line connects Leningrad with Moscow and other economic regions of the Soviet Union.

At the same time, it is also an important port in the Baltic Sea and an important base for the Baltic Fleet of the Soviet Union.

If they stay here, the Soviets will easily be able to fly to the German capital when they dispatch their bombers. At the same time, the Soviet Baltic Fleet will also be dispatched frequently, causing damage to the maritime transport routes of Germany and Sweden. After all, Germany needs a lot of The iron ore is imported from Sweden.

Therefore, Germany must also act in the north. The goal of the northern group is to occupy Petersburg.

In this regard, Cyric is conservative. After all, in history, the battle for more than 800 days has left Germany's face darkened. Now, such a scene cannot be repeated.

The army in the north did not move very quickly. What they needed more was the cooperation of Finland and the three Baltic countries, as well as the cooperation of their own fleet.

This battle must be fought stably, with the least cost and the greatest victory. Therefore, up to now, the army in the north has not had as much fun as the two armies in the south.

"Führer Cyric, our fleet, has entered the Baltic Sea." At this moment, the naval commander reported a message to Cyric.

Having entered the Baltic Sea, it means that a new battle can begin.

(I don’t know if you will find it confusing. The Hero of East China is written according to the time line. In this way, the three-way army must be interspersed with writing. If you only write about one of the roads, you will always feel that something is missing. The South Road and the Middle Road are written a lot. , now write about the North Road, and at the same time change the way, start from the sea.)
