"Comrade Joseph, the Southern Front has already begun to rebuild. However, several other fronts suffered equally heavy losses. Even if they hold out until winter, they will not have many troops left. We're probably going to have to start rebuilding now. In this way, next spring will come and we will be ready to have enough troops to launch a counterattack against the Germans! Marshal Voroshilov suggested.

After much thought, Joseph nodded. After full mobilization, there will be no shortage of troops in Buzhan Russia. Of course, in terms of weaponry and training, the newly formed units may be somewhat lacking. However, these disadvantages can be compensated for if you can get a winter respite. When the time comes, they will have enough strength to continue fighting the Germans.

"Do you have a plan?" Joseph asked.

"Comrade Joseph, this is our concrete plan!" General Shaposhnikov handed over a reorganization plan to Joseph.

Joseph read it carefully, and in this reorganization plan, several fronts of the Russian army will be strengthened.

The Western Front, in addition to the existing several armies that will be reorganized, will also add the 19th, 20th, 21st, 22nd, 28th, 29th, 30th, 31st, 32nd, 33rd, 39th, 43rd, 49th, 50th, 61st, 68th armies, the 1st assault army, the 10th and 11th guards armies, the 4th tank army, and the 4th air force army. In this way, the Western Front will become a huge front with 24 infantry armies, two tank armies, two air force armies. The entire front army will have an army of almost three million.

There is no doubt that this will become the strongest group army among the several fronts of the Russian army.

Of course, as a unit that confronted the Germans head-on, it could not be strengthened enough. In particular, the German Army Group B will be further strengthened by the troops of the client countries. In this case, the Russian army will need to add more troops to resist the German attack.

"The establishment of the Western Front, is it too big?" Joseph asked.

"Comrade Joseph, Army Group B of the Germans, has an army of more than a million. In addition, according to reliable information we have received, millions of Polish troops, as well as 200,000 Belarusian troops, are already on their way to the front. At that time, the total strength of this army group will exceed 2 million people. Although, the combat effectiveness of the Poles and Belarusians, for sure, could not be compared with the Germans. However, the combat effectiveness of our newly formed units has also declined. So, we had to add as many troops as we could to guard against the Germans. Marshal Voroshilov said.

When Joseph thought about it, this was indeed the case. The strength of the Russian army, if it is comparable to the German army, then they are definitely not the opponent of the German army. The armies of Germany's client states do not seem to be to be underestimated in combat. This can be seen from the performance of Ukrainians on the battlefield in Ukraine. Therefore, it is very necessary for the Russian army to maintain its superiority in terms of strength as much as possible.

"Well, let's reorganize the Western Front according to this formation! However, General Timoshenko is no longer suitable for the post of commander of the Front. I was very disappointed with his performance in this war! Joseph said.

Although, the Western Front will be defeated, the main reason is that the German army is too strong. But General Timoshenko's performance was indeed not very good. What's more, if the current Western Front army has more than three million troops, this makes Joseph even more unassured, and he must let his henchmen control this army. In this way, he will be reassured.

Neither Voroshilov nor Shaposhnikov spoke, indeed, when it came to such a large force, only Joseph could decide on the commander of this force.

Joseph thought about it, and he didn't seem to have a suitable candidate either. However, he had to keep this force in his hands. Otherwise, he would never be at ease.

"Comrade Voroshilov, let you be the commander of the Western Front!" Joseph said.

Voroshilov was stunned, he is a member of the Politburo and the People's Commissar of Defense of Burussia! If he had been the commander of the front at the front, he would have to give up these positions. What's more, it is undoubtedly very dangerous to go to the front to fight the Germans. If the Germans were defeated, it would be all over.

But now that Joseph has spoken, can he refuse? That's obviously impossible.

"Yes, Comrade Joseph!" Marshal Voroshilov immediately figured it out. Everything about him, so to speak, was given by Joseph. If he opposed Joseph, then Joseph could take everything from him at any time.

Joseph nodded in satisfaction, Voroshilov's loyalty made him very satisfied.

The Southwestern Front, in addition to rebuilding the crippled 5th, 6th, 13th and 26th armies, assigned the 37th, 38th, 40th and 57th armies, as well as the 8th Army of the Air Force, to the Southwestern Front. In this case, the Southwestern Front will have millions of troops. Although, it is no less than the German Army Group C, if you count the Ukrainian army that is fighting with Army Group C, the Russian army is still at a disadvantage. However, the Southwestern Front was mainly in the position of assisting the Western Front in the war, and if the situation was unfavorable, it could retreat to Moscow. These armies are also enough in front of them.

The North-Western Front, in addition to the three existing armies that will be replenished and rebuilt, will be integrated into the 3rd and 4th assault armies, the 34th, 48th, and 53rd infantry armies, and the 1st tank army. In this case, the Northwestern Front would have 8 infantry armies and 1 tank army, with more than 1.5 million troops, which would be enough to compete with the German Army Group A. If nothing else, dragging the German Army Group A in Ulyanovgrad was not a problem at all. In that case, there would be no need to fear the German Army Group A moving south and cooperating with Army Group B and Army Group C to besiege Moscow.

Joseph nodded after reading the grouping plan. After the reorganization, the strength of the armed forces on several fronts will be strengthened. This will help them to withstand the German attack. And even if it goes well, it can launch a counterattack.

"Very well, let's do what you planned! I hope that our army will be ready to launch a counterattack from next spring! Joseph said.

"Yes, Comrade Joseph." Both Voroshilov and Shaposhnikov replied.
