Chapter 30: Guderian
The base in Libya has aroused the desire in Ciric's heart, and he can't wait to build a modern army! And it all had to start with Guderian!
However, if Guderian is sent to Libya, then Guderian will almost be removed from his current position, and what can impress Guderian is the love of a confidant who wants to see the night, and the beautiful outline of the new army!
Moreover, there is Hannah, a human spirit!
"Uncle Guderian, it's a pleasure to meet you. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info "In one of the offices of the Army Transportation Service, a crisp female voice came from it.
Now Guderian, in his thirties, is the golden age of a man, and the lines on his face are very tough, with obvious characteristics of German soldiers.
Although he was no longer in the front line of the army, but in the rear of the transport, Guderian was still a soldier, and the blood of Prussian soldiers flowed in his bones.
When he heard the voice, he knew that it was Hannah who came, in fact, at that time, the information was given to Hannah, but it was only an unintentional move, Hannah was chanting Ciric's name all day long, and Guderian paid attention to it.
And this time...
Guderian raised his head and was stunned for a moment, this time Hannah didn't come alone! Next to her, there was a tall young man!
Why does this young man look so familiar? Guderian's mind fluttered, wasn't this the Ciric that Hannah had been screaming all day long?
"Uncle Guderian, it's a pleasure to meet you." Ciric said.
Now, Ciric is actually in his early twenties, a decade behind Guderian, and he doesn't know the generation, but it doesn't matter what it's called at this time.
Anyway, follow Hannah's call, that's right.
Sure enough, Hannah's smile of satisfaction was incomparably brighter.
"Ciric, you are now the pride of our German soldiers, although you have retired, there are still many young people in the army who follow your example." Guderian said, "It's a pleasure to meet you. ā
The two stretched out their hands and shook each other, and Hannah said very interestingly, "You talk, I'll go find some coffee." ā
"Ciric, what's the matter with coming to me this time?" Guderian asked.
"There are some immature theories that I would like to discuss with you." "I think the future will be dominated by mechanized troops, and tanks will be the main weapon of war, not a vassal of cavalry," Ciric said. ā
With just one sentence, Guderian's eyes lit up!
Guderian's theory is constantly improving, but now, it is just the germination of Guderian's theory, and just when Guderian is still thinking, someone suddenly said a conclusion, breaking his confusion, which of course made him quite excited!
Yes, it is!
In this era, cavalry still seems to be invincible, and a large number of cavalry units have been established in various countries, and at the same time, almost all army generals are from cavalry!
No one dares to say it out loud yet, the cavalry will withdraw from the stage of history, and the tank will be the main weapon of the future war!
If anyone dares to say that, then he is either crazy or arrogant!
"In future wars, we can use tanks in large numbers and intensively, closely cooperate with aircraft, break through a certain narrow area of the opponent, and then the combined army of tanks and infantry will begin to sweep the opponent's positions and strongholds, rapidly expand the occupied area, encircle and encircle, annihilate the opponent's troops, and quickly develop victory in depth."
"The firepower, mobility, and protection of the tank will become the key to victory, and at the same time, the infantry accompanying the tank also needs to have the same mobility as the tank, which can achieve the effect of blitzkrieg."
Ciric's words opened up a new world for Guderian! Everything that Guderian had been thinking about was shattered by Ciric's words!
A new world opened its doors and unfolded in front of Guderian.
"Uncle Guderian, you have made a wise decision."
"The stage here is too small for you to play at all, and you can only play your strengths when you go to our new base."
"It won't be long before we can build an advanced tank, and your tactics can be tested in the new base."
Guderian had a wry smile on his face, and when he finished writing his retirement report, he wasn't sure if he was right to do so, after all, those who could stay in the 100,000 defense army were elites!
As a military family, it is simply a shame to retire from the army!
However, Guderian knew that he had no choice, because he was moved by Ciric's words!
There will be a large number of soldiers who participated in World War I, and now recovered fighters, who will walk into the new base together and train in the new base! In particular, Krupp will build new tanks in the base!
Thinking of tanks, Guderian just had itchy hands, and he knew that he simply could not refuse!
Now, looking at Hannah's praise, Guderian couldn't help but laugh and cry.
Ciric was full of joy: "When you arrive at the new base, you will be appointed as the commander of the army in the base, and I can assure you that it will not be long before you can return to the sequence of the defense force with the rank of major general, and at that time, it will be time for you to really show your ability." ā
Back to the Army! Ciric is completely stress-free, and when Hitler fools the chancellor, the German army will not be allowed to toss itself?
With Guderian, Ciric is even more powerful!
It is impossible to say that it can be concealed from the veterans in the defense army, and now, it depends on whether Guderian's retirement report can be approved, which shows the attitude of the other party.
Ciric knows that those old guys will definitely support him, and doing so will be beneficial to both parties!
Now, the digging of the foot of the wall has come to an end for the time being, Guderian has been fooled, and if Mussolini does not agree to his plan to lease Libya as a base, it will be in vain!
At the same time, of course, Ciric also knew that when he went to visit Gustav, as a human spirit, Gustav would definitely inform the above.
What will be the attitude above? Ciric is quite sure, failed, there were no consequences, success, the benefits were great, they had no reason to refuse!
And almost no one now believes that they can make oil in Libya, right?
