Anti-Piracy Chapter~~! Today's three watches~~~!! ~~

And after the end of this battle, the number of Ilya bombers at the disposal of the Russians dropped by more than 4 percent! And in one day, the number of planes shot down by the Russian Air Force also exceeded 56! Combined with losses due to other accidents, two-thirds of the planes did not return to the battlefield in the end. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"By the time our Army reached the pinnacle of its attack, our Air Force had been swept out." After hearing the news, Alikseev, who was in charge of commanding the campaign, wrote in his diary. The situation in the entire Galician battlefield at this time was like this,

The Russian Seventh Army to the west, having paid a heavy price and leaving behind a fortress that was difficult to break through in a short period of time, finally reached the deepest line of the current attack, and now nearly three divisions had reached the Carpathian mountain range, which meant that the depth of their attack was enough, and the remaining passes could be cut off from the eastern Galicia region by controlling a few more passes.

"Our follow-up forces will take 10 days at most, no, maybe a week, and we can build a line of defense on the narrow north-south line in Galicia, which will be used to defend against a possible counterattack by the Austrians and Bavarians, and then ours on the eastern flank, where the Ninth Army is also gradually compressing the Allied army, and it is said that there are 3 more Bavarian divisions opposite. It's a little harder, but that's okay. As long as it can be stabilized, after the Seventh Army has its hands freed, it can be transferred to the east. "Alekseev is constantly deducing the actions of both sides and the possible consequences on the sand table.

"Alright, Alekseev, stop clinging to your stupid and boundless plans, we are now on the edge of a cliff, and if we take another step, we will face an abyss!" Just then the door of the house was violently pushed open, and Borusinov walked in with anger.

"What a joke, we have already controlled the form of the west and are only one step away from success. We could soon establish a solid line of defense in the north and south to stop the reinforcements of the Bavarian Corps, who could not have entered Galicia from the east through Hungary, for there were still 4 Romanian army groups there. Alekseev said.

"Well, I'll just ask you one question, in the field battles we fought with the Bavarian Army, did we win?" Borusinov asked after closing his eyes, then after making a quiet tidying up.

"Fuck, that's a sharp question!" All the Russians present were a little dumbfounded, well, although this is bluntly said, but it does make sense, it seems, probably, perhaps, that the Russian army and the Bavarian army have really no record ......of winning in the wilderness. But even if it's true, you can't say it!

"We can concentrate 6 divisions, no, 8 divisions on this front, a short front of less than 70 kilometers. In addition to this, we have a large number of reserves, and let's not forget that the Seventh Army has 220,000 men, and we have only now lost more than 40,000 troops. We can also draw troops from the Eighth Army, which is besieging Lviv. Alekseev said. Even if it's a pile of people, we can block each other! Speaking of the back, Alekseev's face is already a little hideous.

After a period of attack, Alekseev has realized that the Lviv fortress cannot be taken in a short time, and the Austrians will not be able to fight it, but they will certainly not be able to enter it themselves, in this case, why not temporarily transfer troops to replenish where they are needed?

The commander of the Seventh Army in the west also knows about it, don't look at the number of losses, the losses are not large, but the losses of these troops are all elite! An army seems to have a lot of people, but in fact there are not many people who can really fight! For example, in Germany, the infantry side of the German breakthrough in the late battle line relied on the storm commandos. And a German division with a theoretical 17,000 men in a storm commando only 1,400 men. MOREOVER, AMONG THESE 1400 MEN, THERE IS AN ARTILLERY COMPANY EQUIPPED WITH 4 77MM RAPID-FIRE GUNS AND A SUPPORT UNIT WITH 4 TO 8 MORTARS. These people who rushed up on the front line died in the hundreds. These troops are the most elite and dedicated people in the entire division, if they are gone, maybe the number is insignificant, but the combat effectiveness of this division has dropped by a notch!

This was the case with the Seventh Army, although, judging by the total number of people, the losses were not significant. Not even a sixth. However, it is undeniable that more than half of the units in this group army that can really fight have been lost, and several of the most elite rapid assault divisions have been half-crippled, not to mention the heavy losses in personnel, and there are even more than three out of ten artillery pieces of all kinds! The infantry divisions behind could not even guarantee the number of 3-inch rapid-fire guns, and from the point of view of the European theater, this army group could already go down and consider regrouping and waiting for replenishment.

And now, the material transit centers of the Seventh Army have been bombed, which makes the situation of the entire army even worse, and Alekseev is not unaware of this, so he is ready for the Eighth Army to temporarily relax the siege of the fortress area of Lviv, in order to draw forces to defend the western front, and at the same time pull out the remaining nails.

"You're smart enough to be aware of the state of your army, but alas, it's a bit wishful thinking. I have a hunch that the Bavarian Army has used this time to amass a large number of troops, and although our aviation reconnaissance is gone, we can always see some of them through the clues from all sides. Borusinov said with a sigh.

"How many of the Bavarian regiments came? Do you know? You don't know! You're just guessing, baseless guessing! Alekseev said excitedly.

"There's no way back, are we?" Alekseev continued, "I know very well what we are doing, and I am now at least half sure that I will consolidate what we have achieved so far. At least we still have a military advantage, at least we have control over a large area. At least Romania has moved, and the Austrians are facing a two-front battle! This is our only chance, and if we lose this time, then we will live forever in the shadow of the Bavarian army!! ”
