Jagged Germany

  General Ivanov, the commander of the Russian Southwest Front Army, left Stefka and rushed back to his front-line headquarters in Stry by night and night. However, on the way back, his expression was very ugly.

  As a front-line commander, he probably would have such an expression when he encountered a formidable enemy like the German 8th Army. After all, the German 8th Army has proved their strength to the world with their dazzling record. Even General Ivanov was worried that his army would be quickly defeated under the attack of the German 8th Army.

   After rushing back to Stry, Admiral Ivanov immediately summoned the officers of the Front Army Staff Headquarters and asked them to discuss a set of tactics against the German 8th Army. Then, non-stop summoned the commanders of the various armies under the Southwest Front Army. In any case, the German 8th Army is about to launch an attack on them. This is a big event, and they must resist the German attack. Even, you have to find a way to win this battle. Otherwise, all their previous efforts would have been in vain.

   "Gentlemen, we are in big * trouble this time. The German 8th Army is heading south, and the target is us!" Admiral Ivanov looked at his generals and said bitterly.

   "The 8th Army? Is that the German 8th Army that killed the entire Northwest Front?" A Russian general asked in horror. He was the commander of the Russian 4th Army, General Dimitriev. His 4th Army is located at the northernmost point of the entire Southwest Front Army, which means that once the German 8th Army launches an attack, his 4th Army may be the first to bear the brunt of the German 8th Army's attack target.

  The four armies of the Northwest Front Army were all eaten by the German 8th Army, which undoubtedly proved the powerful combat effectiveness of the German 8th Army. General Dimitriev absolutely does not think that his 4th Army can withstand the attack of the German 8th Army. Although the German 4th Army has a strength of more than 300,000 troops, the strength of the German 8th Army is only about 60% of the Russian 4th Army.

   "God! Are the Germans going to intervene in the battle between us and the Austro-Hungarian Empire?" The other generals also showed embarrassment.

  In the previous battles between the Southwest Front Army and the Austro-Hungarian Army, they had always had the upper hand, making the Austro-Hungarian Empire powerless to resist. This made the generals of the Russian army very happy. After all, the industrial strength of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the weapons and equipment of the army are stronger than them. Winning against such an opponent is undoubtedly something worth showing off.

   But now, the Germans are coming. Then, everything changes. If they don't deal with it properly, maybe they will lose this battle. This is not good news for them.

   "General, the German 8th Army has gone south, don't they need to defend East Prussia?" General Rusky, commander of the Russian 3rd Army, asked.

"The Germans assembled other armies in East Prussia and the Kingdom of Poland to prepare for our attack. The Northwest Front suffered too much losses this time, and our mobilization has not yet been completed. Therefore, we simply do not have extra strength to attack the East. Prussia and the Kingdom of Poland. Now, the most important issue before us is how to resist the attack of the German 8th Army. If we can't resist, I won't say the consequences, and everyone knows it very well." Ivano General Husband said.

"General, how can we resist it? The 1st Army, the 2nd Army, the 9th Army and the 2nd Guards Army were eliminated by the German 8th Army within a month or so. They are so powerful If we want to resist their attack, we may have to send the entire Southwest Front Army. Otherwise, it will be impossible to resist the attack of the German Eighth Army.” Commander of the Russian Eighth Army General Brushinov shook his head.

"Yes, General. The tank troops of the others have extremely strong assault capabilities. And we have no weapons to counter German tanks. According to the information obtained before, unless it is a direct hit by a large-caliber shell, otherwise, only The soldiers carried the explosives and launched a suicide attack on the German tanks." General Serivanov, commander of the Russian 11th Army, said helplessly.

  After the defeat of the Northwest Front Army, all kinds of information about the German 8th Army were continuously gathered into the hands of the Russian generals. The strength of the German 8th Army shocked them greatly. Of course, what attracted their attention the most was undoubtedly the 8th Armored Division of the German Army, which made a big splash in this battle. However, even now, the Russian army has no way to deal with the German armored forces. And this puts them at a disadvantage in battle.

"As for the German tank units, the military factories in the rear are already working hard. We are also contacting Britain and France to seek weapons from them to deal with the German tank units. However, these are not available for the time being. Therefore, we can only find ways to deal with the German 8th Army. I believe that no matter how strong the German 8th Army is, no matter how strong its combat effectiveness is. However, our Southwest Front Army is not so easy to deal with. We will not be like the Northwest Front Army , easily defeated." General Ivanov said.

   "Yes, general." All the Russian generals replied. However, from the expressions on their faces, Admiral Ivanov could still see their guilty conscience.

   Soon, the staff of the Russian Southwest Front Army came up with two sets of battle plans. One set tends to be conservative, but the other set is very bold, and can even be described as adventurous.

  The conservative tactic is to require the Russian Southwest Front Army to enter a comprehensive defensive combat posture and gather two armies to deal with the attack of the German 8th Army. The other two armies responded to the Austrian attack. Wait until the 13th Army arrives before planning a counterattack. It's just that it's hard to say whether the two armies can withstand the attack of the German 8th Army.

Another set of bold battle plans is to use one army group to withstand the attack of the German 8th Army, and the other three army groups will attack the Austrian Army with all their strength, and strive to defeat the Austrian Army before the German 8th Army wins the victory, thus gaining the battlefield victory. Once the Austrian army is completely defeated, the Southwest Front will be able to gather the main force to deal with the German 8th Army. At that time, there may not be no chance of winning.
