After listening to the short introduction, Trode thought for a moment and still asked a question: "Although I know that it is a bit inappropriate to ask this question, you still want to ask, how many percent of your troops' troops are usually on missions?" ”

"Hehe, I'm afraid the captain's words are quite meaningful. www.biquge.info The man smiled self-deprecatingly: "It's not a secret, if you talk about the configuration when you fought in the French realm before, maybe it was only thirty percent." Of course, this is without counting your forces. ”

Hearing this, Trode nodded slightly, and said slowly: "Forgive me for being rude, I'm afraid your troops have suffered a lot of setbacks under the enemy's army. ”

"Frustration? Hehe......" The man smiled again and said, "Since the captain is a candidate appointed by the above to carry out special tasks, then I will not hide it." The captain was right, although we were relatively intact in the neighboring divisions, we did not suffer any loss in small places. ”

Seeing that the other party didn't hide it, Trode asked directly: "And the reason for this is the gap in strength, right?" ”

"Almost, but not quite." The man continued with some seriousness: "Although we are not inferior in equipment, we are completely inferior to them in terms of the number of troops, and in addition, being unprepared and being broken through by the enemy's key forces is also a problem that has just been slightly improved by returning to the Rhine Line. ”

"I see, thank you, I've got that clear." After thanking him, Trode hung up and began to use this last bit of time to think about the future strategy.

When they were in North Africa, the German army in Trode was actually at a numerical disadvantage compared to the British and French troops, but at that time, there were also Italian troops to help assist, and in the vast and sparsely populated North African desert, the gap in strength was not obvious and not fully revealed, but the German army concentrated superior forces and repeatedly advanced, and the British and French armies finally stabilized the last line of defense in Egypt after being defeated again and again.

When fighting with the Soviet army on the Eastern Front, although the Northern Army Group they encountered at the beginning was superior to the vanguard of the German army in terms of strength, the combat effectiveness of the two sides was completely different from the same level at that time, and its defeat by the German army was not an unexpected situation. However, after Andrei's Army Group Center quickly returned, the situation began to slowly turn around, until Army Group South stabilized the defenses of Chernihiv and Kharkov and returned, and the German offensive plan was declared dead in name, and in the ensuing series of battles, although there were casualties on both sides, the fact that the Germans were driven out of the Soviet land is an indisputable fact.

Now, the Germans are once again outnumbered, and although there are more friendly troops to rely on here than on the Eastern Front, on the contrary, the German troops deployed here are inferior to the troops on the Eastern Front. However, the Soviet-German bilateral relations have just completed breaking the ice and reached a certain consensus, and Germany naturally does not dare to quickly withdraw its forces on the Eastern Front until the two sides have completely reached a community of interests.

What is even more serious than the previous ones is that this time the enemy's support is much faster than the previous ones, although they also have to take into account the situation in Northern Europe on the other hand, but in comparison, Western Europe is obviously their main battlefield. If the Soviets had attacked aggressively enough, it would not have been impossible for them to completely abandon their strategy in northern Europe and devote themselves to fighting in Western Europe and North Africa on all fronts. And this is indeed the last thing Germany and its allies want to see.

Although Germany began to accelerate the production of tanks and other weapons and equipment before the war with France, it was imprisoned by the treaties after World War I, and the development of many projects was relatively slow, and the productivity was completely unable to match that of the United States and the Soviet Union. On the other hand, the Soviet Union, although it was attacked by the German army quite ferociously in the early stage of the war and lost a considerable number of troops, but the places captured by the German army were rarely important military industrial towns. That is to say, although the Soviet army is facing a crisis, the rear has hardly been affected in terms of productivity, which is also the first reason why the Soviet army's equipment can be quickly upgraded and can completely crush the German army in terms of numbers. As for the United States, as another big country on the other side of the ocean, and its development time ahead of the Soviet Union, it is even more advanced in this regard.

(PS: This only refers to productivity, not the level of equipment.) Moreover, because the United States was far away from the battlefield at that time, the intelligence it obtained was not much worse than that of the European continent, so it was relatively backward in terms of equipment, which is understandable. ）

Trode felt that although they had an absolute numerical advantage in this battle, and even in terms of equipment level, even if they paid attention to their mission, it was impossible to have a situation like this all the time. Now it was only a moment of respite from the enemy's respite that they could inflict such heavy damage, but if they had relieved themselves, the battle that would have been fought would have been difficult to say.

In order to deal with the combat situation of a possible absolute disparity in forces, Trode was already thinking about tactics. In his view, the tactics used in the early days of Northern Europe may continue to be used, but it is difficult to say whether the allied forces dominated by the United States, Britain, and France will be as ineffective as the Soviet Union's Army Group North.

"We're here, and the goal is ahead." While Trod was still thinking, the leading tank finally stopped, announcing the real start of the operation.

Trood and Andre both raised their binoculars to look ahead, and at the far end of their line of sight, a British position stood there, containing a variety of light and heavy weapons and the 'Firefly' medium tank mentioned in the previous intelligence. Although it is not too difficult to fight with the strength of the squadron of Trode and Andrei, it will take a lot of effort.

And the reason why their mission was entirely of a helping role was that at this time, the rest of the German army had already been assembled on their side—infantry, tanks, and long-range artillery. Not to mention that this position was captured, even the troops that completely crushed this position to the ground were more than enough.

As for the essence of this battle, it is naturally not to lay this position, but to show the strength of the German army to the Soviet army!
