For the Burussians, the outbreak of this war was so sudden that they were not prepared at all and were taken by surprise by the Germans. Although they sent all their elite troops to the front, they were still unable to resist the prepared German army, resulting in heavy losses.

Now, the mobilization of Burussia is being completed step by step, and a large number of troops are being transferred from all parts of the country to the Western Front. This gave them enough troops to fend off the German attack.

The coming winter is even more crucial for Burussia. They can use these few months to take a good rest and rearrange their troops. The leaders of Burussia are confident that after careful preparation, their army will not be as vulnerable as it is now.

The panic in Joseph's heart also disappeared by this time.

"Gentlemen, the Germans are now on the offensive and on the offensive. But that doesn't mean we have to be on the defensive. From somewhere else, we can also attack, keep the Germans scrambling and pinning down their forces! Joseph said.

"Comrade Joseph, do you mean that we are attacking the Germans from other directions?" Both Voroshilov and Shaposhnikov frowned.

Now, the Russian army is exhausted under the fierce attack of the German army, and they simply do not have many troops to attack.

"Yes, I think we can send a part of our army to attack the vital points of the Germans! If it can be successful, it will open up the situation for us. For the frontal battlefield, it also has huge benefits! Joseph said.

"Comrade Joseph, if this is the case, I think it is feasible. But I don't know where you want to attack? General Shaposhnikov asked.

"Here!" Joseph pointed to the map.

Voroshilov and Shaposhnikov, at once understood what Joseph meant.

The place where Joseph asked them to attack was the Persian Gulf region in the Middle East. It has become one of Germany's most important oil producers. Almost all of the oil consumed in Germany and Europe is produced here. It can be said that if Burussia can really send troops to capture this place, it will be a heavy blow to Germany.

Europe is generally short of oil, except for Romania, which has a small oil field, the rest of the countries rely on foreign oil as soon as possible. Burussia's oil mainly comes from the Baku oil field.

"The strength of the Germans is based on their advanced weaponry. If we can send troops to occupy the Persian Gulf, we will be able to cut off the Germans' access to oil. Without oil, the Germans would not be able to take to the skies, and the tanks would not be able to move. When the time comes, their combat effectiveness will be greatly affected. And we will be able to turn defeat into victory. Joseph looked wistful.

Voroshilov and Shaposhnikov glanced at each other, and from each other's eyes, they saw a trace of helplessness. Both of them thought that Joseph had imagined everything too simply.

"Comrade Joseph, the Germans should have been on guard. In Germany, they built a war-ready system and stored a large amount of oil. In addition, the Germans could get oil from Romania and Libya. Even if the oil in the Persian Gulf is lost, it will not have a fatal effect on them. Marshal Voroshilov said.

"Even so, as long as the Germans can be affected, it is enough, at least it is much better than the passive beating that we are now blindly beating, right?" Joseph's stubbornness was repeated.

"In addition, if we occupy the Persian Gulf, we can also pose a threat to North Africa or India. India, in particular, was the most important colony of the Germans. If we send troops to attack India, the Germans will be panicked. At that time, they will have to send troops to India, and we will be much less stressed. Joseph said excitedly, as if he had found a good way to deal with Germany.

"Comrade Joseph, according to the information we have received, the Turks are sending troops to the east. Their aim is likely to be to prevent us from launching an attack on the Persian Gulf. Shaposhnikov reminded.

Hearing this, Joseph couldn't help frowning, he hadn't paid attention to this. However, it was not easy for him to come up with such a solution, and if he wanted to make him give up, it was undoubtedly unlikely.

"Damn the Turks, they're all gone, and they still want to fight us?" Joseph said through gritted teeth.

Indeed, Turkey today is no longer the Ottoman Turkish Empire that fought the whole of Europe at the beginning, but a small country in decline. In the face of the powerful Buo, there is undoubtedly much weaker. If the Burussia wanted to, he could destroy them at any time. But now, the strength of the Buenos and Russia has been pinned down by the Germans, which makes them a little powerless against Turkey.

"Even if Turkey intervenes, it will not be able to change the tide of the war. Our army, combat effectiveness is much stronger than theirs. I believe that our army can easily defeat them. As long as the Turks are defeated, we can easily occupy the Persian Gulf. Joseph said.

Voroshilov and Shaposhnikov knew that Joseph had made up his mind.

"Comrade Joseph, even if we can defeat the Turks and occupy the Persian Gulf. But the Germans will not fail to ask. They will definitely send a large army to land in the Persian Gulf. When the time comes, I am afraid it will be difficult for us to defeat them. Shaposhnikov reminded.

"Even if we can't defeat the Germans, we're going to destroy the oil wells there, so that the Germans can't get a drop of oil from the Persian Gulf!" Joseph said through gritted teeth.

"Well, Comrade Joseph!" Shaposhnikov had to say no more.

"Form the Caucasian Front as soon as possible, and then march to the Persian Gulf! This time, we are going to take the initiative to attack and make the Germans pay for their actions in provoking war! Joseph said.

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

If the Russian army can really start from the Caucasus, capture the Persian Gulf, or destroy Germany's oil wells there, it will still play a certain role in promoting the victory of the war between the Russian army and the United States. It's just that the current strength of Bu Russia is extremely limited. If the troops are divided again, no one can say whether it is a good thing for Burussia or not.
