Chapter 193 Proposal that Cannot Be Agreed

Speaking of German friends, almost everyone's eyes turned to Lieutenant Colonel Richthofen.

General Cyric still did not come, and now Richthofen is present every time. Although many people are like a mirror, they are too embarrassed to say it. They all know why.

Therefore, if you ask German friends now, you can't report too much hope.

Hearing these people's requests, Richthofen shook his head: "Our tanks are still being repaired. The last accident caused our tanks to lie down. Now, we are waiting for spare parts from Berlin."

And other accessories! When will it be shipped from Berlin? It's been a month! By then, it will be 37 years!

It seems that in this battle, the Germans cannot be counted on!

It's really itchy!

"We, General Cyric, are also quite anxious now. However, the accessories are too heavy, and it is not suitable for the plane to send. We still have a large amount of funds not in place, so we can only go by sea."

Lieutenant Colonel Richthofen spoke slowly, and continued: "However, we, General Cyric, have a proposal."

Cyric has a proposal? Hearing his words, everyone was shocked. As long as you have studied the process of Cyric's rise, you can find that this guy has almost never failed, and every time his inferences are quite correct.

In particular, after Cyric came to Spain, the Condor Legion had been playing well.

And now, although Cyric did not attend and was represented by Richthofen, his proposal cannot but be taken seriously.

Even Franco asked excitedly: "Tell me, what does he propose?"

"Abandon the attack on Madrid, first knock down the surrounding areas and make Madrid an isolated city. Only in this way can we cut off all reinforcements from Madrid and the supplies of the Republican Army, including the International Column, so that we can conquer Madrid. ."

Suddenly, Franco's expression changed.

The National Army attacked from the west and advanced eastward. So far, it has controlled the western territory with Madrid as the dividing line between the north and the south. All the advancing routes are around Madrid.

After all, Madrid is the capital. As long as Madrid is conquered, this rebellion can be changed into orthodoxy. Although Franco has proclaimed himself the head of state of Spain, it is still not recognized by the public.

Franco places great importance on Madrid, just like if an emperor wants to ascend to the throne, there is only one step left before the dragon chair. No matter how difficult this step is, he has to take it! At this time, in his eyes, there is only the dragon chair and nothing else.

Therefore, Franco is unacceptable.

Even Lieutenant Colonel Richthofen continued to explain his reasons: "On the opposite side of us, there are not only the National Army, but also the International Column, and the most effective one is the International Column. Behind them, the Soviet Union is supporting !"

"We had to seize all the other territories, control the ports, seal the border with France, and prevent the Soviet reinforcements from reaching Madrid. Even if we don't fight, we can make Madrid surrender."

"Today, there is a T-26 opposite us. This is the reinforcement of the Soviet Union. Only when foreign aid is cut off can we win."

Richthofen wasted a lot of saliva, and in the end, Franco just nodded, even if it was over.

Back at the base, Richthofen told Cyric everything at the meeting, and Cyric nodded: "As I expected, Franco will never give up playing Madrid."

Richthofen was speechless for a while, and after a long time, what you proposed was an impossible plan, so why mention it?

"In this way, when Madrid can't win next year, everyone will know that the plan I put forward is correct." Cyric said.

Without blocking ports and borders, Soviet aid can easily be sent to Madrid, and the opponent has been replenishing blood. How can we fight this?

In the past few months, needless to say, the city of Madrid has been attacked, and even the suburbs of Madrid can't be beaten!

Cyric's plan now is to show this kind of foresight, so as to win the respect of those veterans.

"It seems that this Madrid battle will not last long." Richthofen was quite convinced of Cyric.

Cyric nodded: "Our army is aggressive now, but the stamina is not enough. It will definitely not work for another month at most. At least the logistics supply will not keep up. Until next year, the Republican Army will counterattack again. This The Spanish battle will not end so soon."

Cyric's crossing has changed history. If Cyric led the German elite and rushed all the way, he could successfully enter Madrid.

But what is the benefit of doing so? Therefore, Cyric will not change the history of the Spanish Civil War at all. Let Franco experience a defeat first!

"Our planes can be sent out one after another to participate in some ground attack missions to train our pilots. As for the tank unit, keep it for now," Cyric said.

There are tanks on the opposite side, or T-26s with large gun barrels. Therefore, next, the Italian army, who has absorbed the lessons, will definitely not be willing to go to the front line. They will change their tactics, that is, use guns first, then bombard them with planes, and bombard them. It's almost there, let's go up.

Exactly as Cyric guessed.

After a week of indiscriminate bombing, the National Army, which once again gathered troops, finally broke through the defense line of the "Pastoral Home" park, and then forced the Manzanares River to press the university town.

Here, a brutal battle kicked off, and the 11th Detachment of the International Column was newly established to guard the University City.

Warplanes were bombarding indiscriminately, dropping countless bombs on the university town every day.

Every building in the university town, the philosophy building and the literature building, has become a bloody battlefield, and almost every building is engaged in a tug-of-war. It was like a terrible meat grinder, constantly devouring the fresh life of both sides.

The fighting continued until the end of November, when Franco, in desperation, ordered a retreat.

After more than a month of fighting, the casualties were too heavy. Facing the increasing number of the Republican Army and the new international columns that were constantly emerging, Franco was about to despair.

Madrid is right in front of you, but you can't go any further! At this time, he finally remembered Cyric's proposal. If he doesn't stop Madrid's backup, Madrid will be hard to beat!
