Jagged Germany

  The defense lines of the German Army Group B and the Russian Western Front are hundreds of kilometers long. Both sides have deployed millions of troops on this line of defense. The German Army Group B plus the troops of Poland and Belarus amounted to 2.2 million people. The Western Front, reorganized by the Russian army, has a strength of up to 3 million people.

   It can be said that both the German and Russian troops are on this line of defense and have assembled heavy troops. The German army wanted to defeat the Russian army on the opposite side, and took advantage of the opportunity to capture Moscow, the capital of Bu Russia. In order to defend Moscow, Bu Russia must firmly resist the German attack. Otherwise, the fall of the capital will be inevitable.

  In the cold winter, in this world of ice and snow, it is not very large-scale attack. Although the reconnaissance forces of both sides are fighting each other every day, many people will be killed by snipers. The special forces and snipers of the German army even regarded such a battlefield as their paradise.

  Because the German army attaches great importance to special forces, each group army of the German army has its own special forces. They are all elite scouts selected from among the scouts. They are good at disguising themselves with various techniques and shooting valuable targets of the enemy.

   It is precisely because of this that many middle and lower-level officers of the Russian army were killed, making them dare not show up easily anymore. This also caused a great blow to the morale of the Russian army.

   Big Luki, a city in the west of Burus. The 19th, 20th, 33rd, 39th, 40th, and 50th Army Groups under the Western Front of the Russian Army are secretly gathering here. There are also several army groups that are secretly crossing the Danube 30 kilometers south of Great Luki. This time, they will attack the German defenses from two directions. The Belarusian 1st Army and the Polish 3rd Army have become the main targets of the Russian army.

  Marshal Voroshilov is not a fool, he knows how powerful the German army is. Although the cold limited the German army's combat effectiveness, the German army had sufficient supplies for the winter. If it was just defense, it would be enough to make the Russian army pay an extremely heavy price. Therefore, he deliberately selected the Belarusian army and the Polish army as the targets of the breakthrough.

  General Zhukov, Deputy Commander of the Western Front of the Russian Army, became the commander of this plan and was fully responsible for directing this operation. The 12 group armies that participated in the attack by the Russian Western Front all obeyed the orders of General Zhukov.

   Marshal Voroshilov is very satisfied with General Zhukov being in charge of this operation. Although, Marshal Zhukov is also a very trusted and important general of Joseph. But Marshal Voroshilov was not at all afraid that the power in his hands would be divided by General Zhukov. After all, in the view of Marshal Voroshilov, the possibility of failure of this attack is very high. Once it really fails, Joseph will definitely be furious. At that time, General Zhukov, as the actual commander of the attack, will inevitably bear the main responsibility, and the responsibility he has to bear will be relatively smaller. Even if the operation is successful this time, Marshal Voroshilov, as the commander of the front army, is also indispensable. Therefore, this is undoubtedly a very safe way.

   On December 15th, General Zhukov arrived in Great Luki despite the wind and snow. The commanders and political commissars of the twelve group armies and other senior generals were summoned to the headquarters by him.

   "Comrades, it's not long before the date of attack set by Comrade Joseph. How are your troops preparing?" General Zhukov asked.

"Comrade Commander, the 19th Army is ready. However, I hope to give us another batch of winter clothes. Now the weather is getting colder and colder. Even if we are huddled in the trenches, soldiers continue to freeze to death Or frostbite. If an attack is to be launched in a world of ice and snow, the non-combat attrition caused by the cold weather will definitely increase further." Lieutenant General Konev, commander of the 19th Army of the Russian Army, said.

  The other army commanders also looked at General Zhukov. If General Zhukov agreed to Lieutenant General Konev's request, then they would also make similar requests. After all, their troops also lack winter supplies, and people freeze to death every day. If this continues, when the time comes to launch an attack, I don't know how many people will be frozen to death and frostbitten.

  General Zhukov couldn't help but frowned. He knew that if he opened this hole, other armies would definitely make such a request. As the commander of this plan, he obviously can't favor one over another. Otherwise, it will be difficult to lead the army. The next battle will be even more difficult to fight.

"In terms of supplies for the winter, I will request the Front Army Command and the General Staff. Now, we are actively preparing. Comrade Joseph attaches great importance to this attack. He is in Moscow, waiting for news of our victory. I I know that for us, there are still many difficulties to overcome in this offensive. However, I believe that our heroic officers and soldiers will be able to overcome these difficulties and defeat the Germans and their accomplices!" General Zhukov said.

   Lieutenant General Konev could only nod his head, but he couldn't hide the disappointment in his eyes.

  In fact, except for those who have no brains and become senior generals in the army by flattering and being loyal to Joseph, the other generals are very pessimistic about this attack. Although the Western Front now has many soldiers and generals. But in reality, many soldiers are soldiers who have just been mobilized to join the army. Even some troops don't even have enough weapons and equipment, so how can they fight? Not to mention that it is still cold winter, and some soldiers don't even have overcoats for the winter. It is estimated that more people will be frozen to death alive than killed by the Germans.

  However, everyone knew that this was Joseph's request, and they simply had no other choice but to accept the order. If you disobey Joseph's order, the consequences will be very serious. Over the years, there have been countless senior military generals killed by Joseph with various orders.

"I now declare that the Northern Assault Group will be formed from the 19th, 20th, 33rd, 39th, 40th and 50th Armies to attack the Pustoška line. The 21st, 22nd, 28th, 43rd, and The 61st and 68th Army formed the Southern Assault Group to attack the front line of Usvyat. Ten days later, the attack was launched on time, and the defense lines of the Belarusians and Poles were torn apart in one fell swoop, and they were completely wiped out!" General Zhukov ordered.

   "Yes, Comrade Commander!" Everyone replied loudly.
