Jagged Germany

  On the night of September 16, the remnants of the Russian 9th Army were in Pulawi. Not only did they fail to tear through the German defenses, but they also suffered heavy losses. During the night battle, the Russian army lost at least 50,000 people, including several thousand elite cavalry.

  After losing these troops, the remaining troops of the Russian Ninth Army have less than 100,000 troops. Moreover, they were all terrified and lost their fighting spirit. In the continuous battles, the strength of the German army has made these Russian soldiers feel fear.

   And this also means that the Russian 9th Army has no way to retreat south. It can be said that their situation has become very critical now.

   Just when the Russian army was in a mess and didn't know what to do, the German army had already made a choice for them.

   At noon on September 17, the main force of the German 8th Army arrived in the north of Pulawi one after another. Surrounded the remnants of the Russian Ninth Army. Although, all the troops of the German 8th Army combined are less than twice that of the remnants of the Russian 9th Army. The encirclement formed is also very weak. However, the Russian army has long seen the strength of the German army, and it is simply not possible to beat it by relying on numbers and strength. Therefore, even if they were given courage, they would not dare to break through rashly.

The German army did not leave too much time for the Russian army. In the afternoon, the German 8th Army began to attack the Russian army in the encirclement. more brilliant.

  Under the fierce attack of the German army, the Russian army had no way to stop it, and could only retreat steadily. Their living space has also been continuously compressed. The losses are also increasing.

   After much difficulty, I persisted until night. The generals of the Russian army didn't want to wait here to die anymore. They all suggested that Admiral Letzsky break out of the encirclement.

   Now, the remnants of the Russian Ninth Army, although surrounded. However, it was mainly to the south, east and north that it was surrounded by German forces. To the west is the Vistula River. The German army did not deploy troops on the west bank of the Vistula River. And this undoubtedly gave them a chance to escape. Of course, it is almost impossible to escape across the river on a large scale. The German army is not a fool, and will never allow such a situation to happen.

   Admiral Letzsky also knows what the generals mean. They wanted to lose their troops and escape by themselves. Rather than staying with the troops and being wiped out by the Germans, it is better to leave the troops and escape by themselves. What's more, these generals didn't care about the lives of ordinary soldiers.

   Regarding the general's suggestion, Admiral Retzky accepted it after a little consideration. He is a general of the Russian army, and he managed to get to this level. It would be a pity if he died in battle like this. It is the best thing to be able to save your own life. Even if it will be punished by Tsar Nicholas II for this, it is acceptable.

  That night, a group of generals of the Russian army, with their confidants, secretly crossed the Vistula River and escaped in the boat they collected. A group of soldiers and middle and low-level officers were left in the encirclement.

  Early the next morning, the Russian soldiers and middle and low-level officers immediately discovered this problem. After learning that they had been abandoned by those generals, this was a devastating blow to the morale of the Russian soldiers. The Russian soldiers, who didn't have much will to fight, collapsed directly.

  At this time, the German offensive attacked again. Suddenly, the Russian soldiers who had no fighting spirit surrendered to the German army one after another. Even those generals have already run away, so they naturally don't want to stay to die.

  A large number of Russian soldiers voluntarily surrendered, which also affected others. In the end, the remnants of the Russian Ninth Army, except for a very small number of people who resisted stubbornly, surrendered. This allowed the German 8th Army to easily end the battle on September 18th.

  This news was immediately reported to the Legion Command.

"Your Highness, we have achieved a great victory in Pulawi. The remnants of the Russian Ninth Army have surrendered to us. We once again managed to eat up a Russian army." Admiral Hindenburg and Ludendorff The major generals were elated.

   "How could it be so fast?" Qin Tian was also a little dazed.

"Your Highness, the generals of the 9th Army of the Russian Army fled last night. Therefore, those soldiers and low-level officers surrendered after losing their command. This is why we can get Victory," Major General Ludendorff explained.

  Qin Tian suddenly realized that the so-called raging soldiers, raging raging nests, probably meant this! With all the officials running away, how could the soldiers be expected to continue fighting to the death? That is simply impossible.

   "The Russian generals are running well! It is because they ran that we were able to win so easily." Qin Tian said with a smile.

   "Your Highness, do we need to send people to pursue them? The generals of the Russian army escaped across the Vistula River. If we send a cavalry to pursue them, we may be able to capture them." Admiral Hindenburg asked.

Qin Tian shook his head: "There is no need for this. The Russian Ninth Army has almost been wiped out. Even if those generals flee back, it will be useless. Of course, if they can abandon the troops and escape once, they can escape the second time." The second time. If they still have the opportunity to continue to lead troops, they will probably run away when they meet us next time. This is a good thing for us."

   "Hahaha!" Admiral Hindenburg and Major General Ludendorff burst into laughter. Indeed, if this is the case, then for them, the advantages will undoubtedly outweigh the disadvantages.

"Okay, two. We have eliminated the 2nd Russian Guards Army and the 9th Russian Guards Army. Then, the Russian Army in the Kingdom of Poland has almost been wiped out. Let the main force immediately Rest and prepare to go to cooperate with the Austro-Hungarian Empire and kill the Russian Southwest Front Army. Transfer the 8th Armored Division and an infantry division to Warsaw. Since the fish has been eaten by us, there is no need to keep the bait Get off." Qin Tian said.

   With the 2nd Russian Guards Army and the 9th Russian Guards Army having been wiped out by them, Warsaw will naturally not be left behind.

   "Yes, Your Highness." Major General Ludendorff nodded.

  The German 8th Armored Division and 24th Infantry Division were ordered to attack Warsaw.
