v4 Chapter 141： , Huiguangfanzhao
Entering mid-April, the world war has entered its climax stage. The two major alliances have killed off the European continent. The daily casualties on both sides range from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands. The cruelest stage of the world war has been It's here!
On the Western Front, the two sides fought regardless of the outcome. Although the British and French coalition forces suffered more casualties, they could not hold on to other people's cannon fodder. Strategically, the two sides still failed to produce results.
On the Eastern Front, the Russians played against the Germans this time, fully letting the Germans experience the power of the human sea tactics, even if the casualty ratio on both sides reached 1:3, and even in some areas, they also played 1:5. A record, but Mao Xiong still expressed fearlessness!
Then the Germans chose a strategic retreat very wisely. At this time, fighting with the Russians is just looking for death!
With the help of the Hungarians, the Bulgarian army, which broke out on the southern front, took Budapest at a rapid pace, and then went straight to Austria.
Marshal August von Mackensen, the commander of the Southern Front of the Allied Powers, decisively chose to run away, and they did not even go to Austria, and went directly to the Polish region and the German army on the Eastern Front.
It can be seen that he doesn't trust the Austro-Hungarian Empire anymore. If the Vienna government reverts, he will have no chance of running for the last hundreds of thousands of defeated soldiers here.
The battle has been fought until now. The prestige of the military government headed by Hindenburg has dropped to the lowest point in history, and the generals on the front line are not buying their accounts.
Marshal August von Mackensen directly attacked the government: claiming that it was the blind command of the General Staff that caused the current bad situation and demanded that the Hindenburg government return the rights to the Kaiser, not in Go further and further on the wrong road!
Obviously, he is desperate for the war, and hopes that the Lord and the sentry headed by the Kaiser will come to power to negotiate with the Allied Powers and end this war as soon as possible!
Now it is not only Marshal August von Mackensen, many generals in the German army have lost confidence in the war, and even the famous Erich Ludendorff.
Of course, losing confidence in winning this war does not mean that they are about to surrender. Most of their opinions are to negotiate with the enemy and end this war honourably!
Moreover, the Germans still have enough chips in their hands. On the western front, they still occupy the French territories and Belgium, which has been destroyed by the Germans; on the eastern front, the Germans still occupy Poland, Lithuania, and Belarus.
These territories are the confidence of the Germans. If you are anxious, it is okay to have a dead fish. Of course, this will scare the French and Belgium. Other countries are naturally fearless.
For example, the British, they are watching the excitement. If the Germans really turn these areas into a piece of scorched earth, maybe they will celebrate with champagne?
Ferdinand's attitude was similar to that of John Bull. If the Germans were torn apart, Europe would be peaceful in the future. Once it happens, the French will never let them go. The future German decision does not exist!
Even Ferdinand maliciously guessed that Nicholas II also expected this to happen. In a big deal, the loss of these tens of millions of people can be exchanged for the death of Germany and France. The Russian Empire will dominate the European continent, why not change What?
Only the French were injured, they were threatened! With their domestic population base, if they lose more than 10 million people, it would be good to keep their current position. Don't think about dominating the European continent!
The remaining neutral people are calling for restraint on both sides, and some hope that the two major alliances will be more brutally attacked, and it is best to burn the jade and the stone.
It can be imagined that as long as the Germans choose the most extreme approach, neutral Switzerland, the Netherlands, and Denmark will all become members of the new Allies, and interest will always be the best catalyst!
Of course, just like in history, it is just shouting slogans. If the German government really does it, the people underneath will also be mutiny. After all, everyone has not lived enough.
...
The Minister of Foreign Affairs Metiev said calmly: "Your Majesty, the Russians have asked us for help again. They hope we can provide them with 2 billion rounds of ammunition, 80 million rounds of shells, 2 million rifles, 5,000 cannons, Two thousand planes, one thousand tanks, five thousand tons of medicines, five million pieces of military uniforms, one million tons of cans, and a lot of ancillary supplies!"
Ferdinand has long been accustomed to the big mouth of the bear's lion. Of course, given their huge army, this batch of supplies is really not too much.
If it was before, Ferdinand would definitely refuse, but now that the world war has come to an end, it would be a waste to keep a huge reserve of strategic materials.
But whether to sell to the Russians, Ferdinand is still a little bit undecided. Armed with the Russians now, the European continent will be in big trouble in the future!
After hesitating for a while, Ferdinand finally decided to sell, but not everything* such as rifles and cannons can be sold casually, but the ammunition must be sold in limited quantities!
As for what a huge Russian empire would bring to the European continent, Ferdinand couldn't control so much. After the war, weren't Britain and France very idle? We must find something to do for them!
Ferdinand said cautiously: "Your Ministry of Foreign Affairs cooperates and asks the company to negotiate the price with them on behalf of itself. Remember to check our inventory.
Whether the Russians want to buy weapons and ammunition or other strategic materials, we can sell them now, but the Russians must pay first, and at the same time, limit the delivery time of the ammunition so that Russia can use enough without having too much. Remaining! "
"Yes, Your Majesty!" the Foreign Secretary Metiev replied
It's because Ferdinand is careless. With so many weapons and ammunition, Bulgaria cannot immediately take out such a spot for trading, even if it uses strategic reserves!
With the current world situation, if the Germans cannot bear the pressure of the outside world and suddenly surrender, these weapons and equipment will be worthless after the end of the world war. When the time comes, Mao Xiong will directly suffer financial difficulties and cannot afford to pay. Bulgaria will be ready to cry!
This kind of thing happened in history, and Ferdinand didn’t think that they would continue to pay with the morals of the bear!
Anyway, the Russians have just gotten a loan from John Bull, plus Nicholas II’s previous ransacking of their homes, and now their finances are in a rare period of wealth.
...
Although the Allied Powers had the upper hand on the battlefield, the Germans who remained strong were still unwilling to fail!
On May 3, 1917, the German army launched a major counterattack on the Western Front, directly breaking through the French defense line, and occupying Soissons, pushing the front to the Marne River, which was only more than 30 kilometers away from Paris.
The world is in an uproar again. Are the Germans going to achieve a counterattack at the last minute?
In the Paris crisis, the French government was in a hurry. Not only did they mobilize a large number of troops from all over the country to go to Paris, preparing to fight a battle to defend Paris, they also asked for help from the Allied Powers!
Not only the French are anxious, but even the British are anxious. For John Bull, the weakening of the French in this world war was enough. If the French were hit hard again this time, the European continent would be dominated by the Russians after the war!
This is absolutely unacceptable to John Bull. He just killed a Germany. If there is another bear, will anyone live this day?
Therefore, the London government just gritted their teeth and transferred fifteen infantry divisions from the country again, and transferred them to Paris, France. They wanted to fight this Paris defense battle with the French!
Even Ferdinand was in a hurry. Now the French can't overturn the car, otherwise the situation in the European continent will get out of control after the war.
If the French did not come out to contain the British and Russians, life in Bulgaria would be difficult, and Ferdinand would not be ready to face the European hegemony!
Facing the French's cry for help, Ferdinand ordered that the Bulgarian troops on the front line no longer have to attack Vienna. In addition to leaving some troops to contain Austria, the main force directly interspersed in southern Austria and the Allied Forces there. Directly attack the German mainland to achieve the purpose of encircling Wei and saving Zhao!
Dante Christophe, who received this order, felt bad in an instant. He could have caught the soft persimmon of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Now he is going to head to Germany!
Fortunately, Ferdinand did not let him go desperately with the Germans, as long as he could contain the German forces and break the French siege of Paris, his mission was completed.
Otherwise, Dante Christophe really has to worry. Of course, he is not worried about whether he can beat the Germans, but about the logistics of the troops!
Anyway, the troops in his hand now have more than 1.5 million, and hundreds of thousands of the Allied Forces of the Allied Powers in the Italian region, an army of nearly two million people, the Germans can’t eat anyhow, even Germany It is very difficult for people to block their offense!
After all, after the east and west lines, add another southern line, the Germans are also lacking in skills!
The domestic war potential is basically squeezed out, not to mention the Eastern Front. It was originally a lack of troops and is retreating all the way!
The only force with sufficient strength is the Western Front, but the number of Anglo-French allied forces on the Western Front is greater. Once the Germans transfer troops from the Western Front, Ferdinand’s goal has been achieved!
When the time comes, the Germans will not only lose hope of overthrowing the French, but they may also be pushed back by the British and French forces. This is a conspiracy!
Unless the Germans can conquer Paris before the arrival of the Bulgarian army, UU Reading www. uukanshu.com Otherwise, once the war burns to the German mainland, they will lose the war!
But this plan also has a very fatal weakness, that is, the army's logistics supply problem. There are three directions that can provide logistics supplies to the army: Austria, Italy, and Switzerland.
Italy's transportation capacity is limited. Due to the war, the Italian railway transportation capacity is less than half of that before the war, and even the consumption of supplying the Allied forces is very reluctant.
The Swiss are a neutral country. If only a small amount of material is transported, it is estimated that they will still sell the face of the Allied countries, but it is better to supply this army!
To transport materials from Austria, you also have to cooperate with the Austrians? Now the two sides are still enemies. It is a wishful thinking to ask them not to damage the logistics supply line of the Bulgarian army!
In the case of sabotage, Dante Christophe is confident that he will not think that transportation from Austria can meet the consumption of the army on the battlefield!
Therefore, on the surface of this army with a burst of combat power, in fact, its combat power output persistence is very short. In addition to ensuring the peak combat power in the first few days, it will meet the Russians last year in the East. The embarrassment facing the line!
Well, it doesn’t really matter whether this battle can be fought or not. As long as the Bulgarian army reaches the German border and occupy a few small cities by the way, it will boost the morale of the French and strengthen their determination to resist. That's it!
In addition to helping the French through the difficulties, the more important thing is to put pressure on the Germans to make them make wrong decisions. It is best to just put down the weapons in a foolish manner, and then Bulgaria will make a lot of money!
