Historically, the German operation Barbarossa ultimately failed, and they came as close as Moscow as they could, as if they could get in with a little more effort.

However, they ultimately failed, and the war against the Soviet Union turned Germany from prosperity to decline, and finally ushered in the end of its demise.

This result made Ciric sigh, and at the same time, since he himself had crossed over, he had to avoid this happening.

When it comes to this period of history, there will always be countless brick beasts who conclude: Germany's attempt to attack the Soviet Union, which is far above it in terms of area, population, resources, etc., will inevitably end in failure.

This is pure nonsense, looking at every battle fought before, isn't Germany winning more with less? If these conditions are not met, Germany will inevitably lose, and Germany will still be a fart.

There is no war in the world, there is a dispute between the two countries, then hurry up and compare, my area is larger than yours, the population is larger than yours, and the resources are more than yours, you can't beat me, this can really make the world full of love.

Boxers don't have to fight, just compare who has more muscles.

War is definitely not the result of the assumptions of historians, but the result of the final accumulation of countless factors.

Germany fought against the USSR, there was every possibility of success, there was history of it, and now it is even more!

Historically, the defeat of Germany, the constant revision of operational objectives was a big problem, first to attack Moscow, and then to attack the oil fields of the Caucasus, which led to the inability of the troops to concentrate.

At that time, Germany could not help it, because he did not have oil, and now, this problem no longer exists.

Libya's oil was enough for Germany's war consumption, not to mention that Rommel had already occupied the Suez Canal and continued to march towards the Middle East, where the vast oil fields were enough to support all German wars.

Then, Germany's strategic goal is to hit Moscow!

To destroy a country is to occupy their capital, and when Moscow is occupied by Germany, the Soviets are destroyed! A blow to the Soviets, and even more psychologically, when the capital fell, they would accept this defeat!

Moreover, another factor is that Germany has solved the problem on the Western Front, and there is no need to worry about fighting on two fronts, and it can fully cope with the war on the Eastern Front.

"Führer, I propose that we attack on three fronts." Keitel, who had already been promoted to field marshal, said: "Our state border with the Soviet Union is long, from north to south, divided into three armies. ”

Keitel walked to the map on the wall and pointed out the situation on it with a command post: "The army from the north, starting from East Prussia, passing through Dvinsk and Ostrov, through the central and western regions of the Soviet Union to occupy or destroy Leningrad, this army can attack with the Finnish army." ”

"On the central route, starting from the east of Warsaw, attacking Moscow through Brest, Minsk, and Smolensk, this is the main force for the realization of our strategic intentions."

"On the southern route, attack Ukraine, the densely populated agricultural heartland, start from Lublin to the mouth of the Danube to capture Kyiv, then attack the Donbass, and then attack the Russian steppes in the south to the Volga River and the oil-rich Caucasus."

After several years of command, Keitel has been quite thoughtful in terms of strategic considerations, and the three armies attacked together, divided into three routes, and they were all the most important targets.

Leningrad is a blow to the confidence of the Soviets, after all, it is a city named after their founding leader, and the southern road hits Ukraine, which is the granary of the Soviets, and when they are laid there, the Soviets will lack food and have no possibility of continuing the war of resistance.

The three-way army, complementing each other, attacking together, and taking care of each other's flanks, is quite a perfect plan.

From an objective point of view, this plan is not too problematic, although Ciric's goal is to attack Moscow, but if a long dragon hits Moscow directly, the two flanks are quite dangerous, and the Soviets may be dumplings at any time.

Ciric nodded: "This plan is feasible. In order to improve the mobility of our troops, each army in the middle and south routes needs about 10,000 tanks and about 50,000 armored vehicles. ”

On the battlefield in the whole of Europe, Germany has perfected the blitzkrieg, and they have applied it quite well, while the Soviet Union has a vast territory and is still the stage for tank troops.

Even so, Speer's request made Speer frown.

In the historical Barbarossa Plan, Germany only prepared a total of more than 4,000 tanks, and now, Ciric is asking for a total of more than 20,000!

When Speer came to power, he began to promote the acceleration of the German military industry, especially now, with the integration of the military industries of France and Britain, Germany's military production has reached a new level, even so, until now, the number of tanks equipped in the German army is less than 10,000.

You must know that in history, German tanks were still mainly No. 3 and No. 4, and now, it is mainly the Panther 3, and even began to produce Tiger tanks.

The process of these tanks is complex, and the output can not be easily increased.

In particular, if you want to transfer workers from the production line, it will take time for new workers to run in, and another 10,000 tanks will be produced at once? Where is it so easy!

There are about 50,000 armored vehicles!

In the past, the main force of German equipment was the wheeled infantry fighting vehicle improved from the Ford ten-ton truck, which was simple to build, shared the production line with the car, and could produce equipment in large quantities.

However, it was not very suitable, especially on dirt roads, and when Rommel's troops left for Dunkirk, he abandoned almost all of his wheeled infantry fighting vehicles due to the constraints of the swampy terrain.

And in the USSR, the road conditions were bad, and once the rainy season came, it was simply a nightmare for wheeled infantry fighting vehicles, so now the new production is almost all tracked infantry fighting vehicles, which is also time-consuming.

In this case, it is almost impossible to reach the figure that the Führer said. And Speer was conscientious and responsible, and he did not want to show his incompetence in front of the Führer.

As if knowing what Speer was thinking, Ciric suddenly looked at Speer: "Speer, all the equipment of the troops will be in place in February next year, no problem, right?" ”

Hearing this, Spell suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the Führer needed it immediately, but it turned out that there was still a year to go!
