Chapter 950 Scherner's Objection
Blitzkrieg is based on the premise of a large number of mechanized equipment.
Historically, although the German tank troops were very powerful and often ran unexpectedly for hundreds of kilometers, most of the German army was motorized, and even walked to the territory of the Soviet Union on two feet.
Polarization is also serious, so when the tank troops charge, the infantry can't keep up, which is a common situation.
Cyric would not let that happen.
With the integration of European power, the German troops must undergo a major blood change. There must be enough tanks. The infantry accompanying the tank charge must also have mechanized action tools. Even ordinary infantry divisions must have enough trucks. Become a motorized infantry division and greatly improve the mobility of your troops so that they can be victorious in future wars.
The war will not be launched this year, and Germany still needs to prepare for at least a year. Waiting until March next year is the best chance to launch it!
Fighting a national war is not that easy. The training of troops, the gathering of equipment, and the accumulation of logistical materials all take time. According to Cyric's plan, in March next year, when everything is ready, the battle can begin.
Speer nodded: "There is no problem at all. We will prepare all the supplies the troops need, including winter clothes."
Cyric was satisfied with his logistics minister, and even thought about the issue of winter clothes. Even if the German army didn't fight in winter, it would have to spend the winter in the Soviet Union.
The time, the place, the people, everything seemed clear, and for Cyric, it was done.
However, not everyone present was optimistic.
For example, Scherner.
As the backbone of the revolution with Cyric when he was first in the beer hall, Schorner has been on the rise over the years, from an ordinary lower-level army commander to now, to become the highest decision-making core A part of it, Scherner's own vision, is also expanding.
At the same time, because of his absolute loyalty to Cyric, Scherner can speak bluntly many times, and he doesn't have too many concerns like other people.
Although Cyric is confirmed to be correct every time, Scherner is still doing his duty: "Führer Cyric, I don't think it is appropriate to start a war next year."
Everyone present calmed down and listened to Scherner's words. In fact, some people also had such concerns in their hearts, but they didn't dare to say it.
"Now, the conflict in the Brest Fortress is still intensifying. For the Soviets, this time the stimulus is too great. They have concentrated a large number of troops, thinking that victory is within their reach, but the result is still a failure, which will make the Soviets Aware of their inadequacies." Scherner said: "The Soviets will continue to improve their tanks, continue to mobilize troops on the Western Front to guard against us, and if we delay the attack until next year, it will definitely be for the Soviets. An opportunity to buffer."
After a pause, Scherner continued: "We can boldly speculate that in this year, the Soviet army may expand to five million, and their tanks may expand to two Ten thousand vehicles, we are giving ourselves the opportunity to prepare, why not also give the Soviets the opportunity.”
Scherner's concerns are absolutely justified.
The conflict at the Brest Fortress taught the Soviets a practical lesson. The strength of the Soviet army is still a long way off in Germany. The Soviets will not be willing to fail. This year, the Soviet army will be able to The strength has also become stronger!
Historically, the Soviet Union was not worried about German attacks, because the Soviets judged that Germany would not start a war in the east and fight on two fronts until the British problem was resolved.
But now that Britain has been solved, the Soviet Union is already Germany's biggest threat, and the top Soviet leaders will definitely be aware of this problem and continue to make their army stronger!
When it was discovered that Germany was recruiting troops, the Soviet Union did the same, and even more!
"So, I suggest that we use the current Brest conflict as a fuse, directly launch a war, and use our existing army to destroy the Soviet Union!" Scherner said.
After Scherner finished speaking, there was still hope of victory in his eyes.
Everyone's eyes are on Cyric. It is still in the discussion stage, and anyone can ask questions. However, when Cyric makes a decision, everyone will strictly implement Cyric's orders, even if they think this The command is inappropriate and will be executed!
"No, it's not appropriate to start now." Cyric said, "Because we know that the war potential of the Soviet Union is unmatched by any country. It is much larger than Britain and France. Before it is fully prepared, We can't act rashly."
Cyric looked at Scherner and said: "Actually, we are doing this to stimulate the Soviet Union, let the Soviets recruit more troops, and let them send troops to the west."
"Why?" Sherner was puzzled.
"Because only in this way, we can quickly eat them and destroy the living strength of the Soviets, which is also a main purpose of our war." Cyric said: "The Soviet Union is different from other countries, their beliefs are stronger, even if It's taking their capital, and their resistance will be strong."
"So, the only thing that matters is that we eliminate as many of their troops as possible during the war!" Cyric said: "It is better now that the Soviets continue to organize new troops during the war. , at the beginning of the war, we wiped out the main force of the Soviet army! We relied on the blitzkrieg to eat up the main force of the Soviet Union on the western front in one fell swoop, whether it was one million, two million, or three or five million, We're going to hurt the Soviet Union!"
This is also one of Cyric's main goals. The power of the Blitz is quite large. In order to guard against Germany, the Soviets will arrange their main troops on the western front. Once these troops are eaten by Germany, they will be reorganized as second-line troops. Combat effectiveness Going down a step!
Now, let the Soviets recruit, the more troops the Soviets gather now, the more they will be eaten by themselves!
Just like in history, in the early days of Operation Barbarossa, millions of Soviet troops were consumed, and they were all the most elite troops formed!
"The first goal I mentioned just now is to destroy the living forces of the Soviets. The Soviets can organize up to 10 million troops, and we will eat their 10 million troops, leaving the Soviet Union without a man! "
