Relying on the Panzers, outstanding mobility, to divide and encircle the Polish troops, and then to eat them in one bite, this is the tactic of the blitzkrieg, and the main tactic of the German armored forces. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

And now, this tactic, on Polish soil, is being played to the fullest!

The "Pomerania" army group in the Danzig corridor carried out a frantic breakthrough without success, and then, as the encirclement continued to shrink, this army group was completely crushed in the Danzig corridor.

The commander of the army group, General Bortenovsky, became by far the highest-ranking officer to be killed in Poland.

After the main forces in the Danzig Corridor were wiped out, the German army turned around and advanced rapidly towards Warsaw.

In the south, the formidable SS Panzer Division, in half a day, crushed the defenders of Mokra and advanced north.

At the same time, in the battle, advanced combat deeds also emerged, especially the story of infantry Nelz, which circulated among the entire German army, and his deeds as an ordinary infantry soldier who blocked the Polish cavalry with his flesh and blood infected everyone.

"The Führer, both France and England, have already declared war on us." When the Polish campaign began, Shirek was transferred to the train, and no one knew where he was, but he knew all about the battles in various places.

Now, after three or five days of stalemate, taking advantage of the grandeur of the Anglo-French military parade, France and Great Britain have issued an ultimatum to Germany, to which Ciric, of course, has ignored.

Thus, there is the current result, Britain and France, declared war on Germany.

"Führer, I think we should mobilize elite troops from the Polish front line to defend ourselves, otherwise, our western front will not be able to withstand the attack of the British and French forces, and we will fall into a terrible two-front battle." It was then that Brauchitsch finally spoke.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the situation is gradually getting out of control!

The main forces of the German army were on the Eastern Front, and on the Western Front, Britain and France had already declared war on Germany.

In the western part of Germany, only the German First Army under the command of Erwin von Witzleben, although it was called the First Army, the equipment of this army group was quite backward, there were basically no tanks, many troops below, and even the number of artillery was insufficient.

If the Anglo-French forces come over, they will find that what stands in front of them is simply a layer of paper, and as long as they rush over, they will be able to tear through the defense line of the German army, and even fight all the way to Berlin!

Brauchitsch had to remind Cirek that Germany had been walking a tightrope almost all these years, and that the slightest gust of wind could overturn Germany.

Now that the German army is already strong, but all of them are on the Eastern Front, it is also important to transfer some troops back to the Western Front to protect their own territory.

His proposal, of course, would not be accepted by Ciric.

"The key now is to defeat Poland as quickly as possible." Ciric made it very clear: "Now, our army is moving rapidly, and all the main forces are gathering towards Warsaw. ”

"I reckon that just by tomorrow we will be able to create a situation for the Poles, we are about to encircle Warsaw, in which case the Poles will definitely leave Warsaw, and as soon as their government leaves Warsaw, the Soviets will come up and attack from the east!"

Stalin also wanted to save face, after all, the Soviet Union and Poland had signed a non-aggression pact, so although he had already carved up Poland with Germany in private, it was inconvenient for Stalin to do it.

As long as the Polish government fled, the Soviet Union would have found a decent excuse to send troops to Poland.

When the Soviet army also attacked from the east, the whole of Poland was completely divided, and now is the most critical time, and it is absolutely impossible to withdraw troops from the front.

Progress in the past few days has been quite rapid.

Bock's Army Group North annihilated the Polish Army Group Pomorian, then moved south, inflicted heavy losses on Army Group Modlin, and then forcibly crossed the Vistula River and seized positions covering the road to Warsaw from the north.

On the southern route, Guderian's Army Group of the Southern Route inflicted heavy losses on the Polish armies "Lodz" and "Krakow", occupying the Polish industrial center of Lodz and the second largest city, Krakow.

Among them, the 1st SS Panzer Division, which was the fastest, was able to reach the southern outskirts of Warsaw tonight, cutting off the retreat of the Polish Army Group "Poznań" from the south.

The siege of Warsaw would soon begin, and in such a situation, of course, Ciric would not withdraw his troops from the front and run to the west to fight the French.

"Well, what about the threat on our Western Front?" Brauchitsch asked.

"The Western Front? Let the troops guarding the border gradually retreat until they reach the Siegfried Line. "Along the way of the retreat, S-shaped mines were laid and used to delay the movement of the French army. ”

Ciric gave a plan, using mines, to gradually retreat, until he retreated to his own defenses.

It's just a joke! However, Brauchitsch's expression on Ciric's face was not a joke in any way.

After the end of World War I, France and Germany were on guard against each other, and since many areas of the border between the two sides were plains, which were easy to defend and difficult to attack, the French began to build the Maginot Line.

As a defeated country, Germany was not qualified, and it would be nice to have 100,000 troops, but when Germany occupied the Rhineland, it greatly boosted morale, and at that time, Germany decided to build the Siegfried Line opposite the Maginot Line.

This line of defense could cover the German Western Front and serve as a cantonment ground for westward attacks and heavy artillery positions to support the offensive.

It stretches 630 kilometers from Clevaud, Germany, near the border with the Netherlands, along the borders with Belgium, Luxembourg and France to Basel, Switzerland.

Compared to the fortified Maginot Line, the fortifications here are smaller and the structure is simpler, but there are as many as 11,860 of them, far exceeding the Maginot Line.

The defense line is not on the border, and now, Shirek said that he will withdraw to the defense line, which is equivalent to abandoning the villages on the border.

"Brauchitsch, use your brains and think about it." Seeing that the military generals were still hesitating, Ciric's tone became serious: "If Britain and France wanted to do it, they would have done it a long time ago!" Now, too, they are just acting as a show, as soon as our mines kill a dozen French soldiers, they will immediately stop advancing. ”

Britain and France, they don't want to fight at all, they're afraid of the dead!

Seeing that Brauchitsch was still that stupid, Ciric continued: "If they really wanted to fight, they should have mobilized for war in the whole country a long time ago. Now, did the British have the desire to fight? ”

Ceraik's words finally made Brauchitsch accept: "Yes, Führer, I understand." ”
