Chapter 484 is all preparing

The rest of the bizarre reasons aside, these two alone were enough to tempt Rommel. The European countries now occupied by Germany www.biquge.info appear to be relatively calm, but they always regard Germany as an aggressor, which is not what Rommel wanted.

In order for the majority of Europeans to identify with Germany, it is necessary to bring the countries of Europe together legally, starting with the Holy Roman Empire, which ruled Europe for thousands of years.

Because Anna had Rommel's covert support, coupled with the huge influence of the Habsburgs, the call for the restoration of the Holy Roman Empire throughout Europe became louder and louder, and the letter of appeal asking Rommel to serve as Holy Roman Emperor needed to be loaded in a truck every day.

There is no hurry now, Rommel plans to do this after taking Moscow, when winter comes, and let the propaganda genius Goebbels do a good job of propaganda during this time, and then it will be logical.

……

Moscow, the capital of the Soviet Union, was bombed by no German planes during this time, mainly because of the participation of American volunteer pilots, which caused the losses of German planes to increase sharply.

Once a German plane is shot down, the plane and the pilot will be lost together, while the American volunteer pilots in the Soviet Union have a 60 or 70 percent chance of taking to the air again to fight.

It was precisely because of this situation that Germany no longer sent a group of planes to Moscow to bomb except for sending reconnaissance planes to the skies over Moscow to investigate.

The skies over Moscow began to become safe, and Stalin immediately ordered the evacuation of all factories to the Ural industrial zone. The trains leaving Moscow were filled with all kinds of machine tools and workers, and the trains coming in Moscow were filled with all kinds of supplies, mostly from the United States, and the Soviet Union was making final frantic preparations for the upcoming decisive battle in Moscow.

Stalin himself did not choose to retreat, he insisted on handling government affairs in the Kremlin, and Stalin's actions undoubtedly stabilized the morale of Moscow's military and people to the greatest extent.

People all over the world are holding their breath and waiting for the decisive battle of the German-Soviet Union in Moscow. At this time, Germany had more than 3.5 million troops deployed on the Moscow front, with nearly 2 million troops coordinated by the Allies and nearly 2 million Soviet People's Liberation Army of all nationalities to help.

The total strength of the German side was more than 7 million, 12,000 tanks, more than 10,000 armored vehicles, more than 8,000 aircraft, and more than 15,000 artillery pieces of caliber of 75 mm or more.

The Soviet army has 3 million regular troops and more than 2 million militias in Moscow, Leningrad, an important town in the north of Moscow, where there are still 560,000 troops and more than 300,000 militiamen, and Stalingrad in the south of Moscow, where there are 7.8 million troops and 450,000 militiamen.

The Soviet Union has concentrated most of its tanks, planes, and artillery in these three places, and the Soviet Union has more than 8,000 tanks, more than 5,000 aircraft, and more than 30,000 cannons with a caliber of 75 mm or more.

The overall strength of the Soviet army is certainly much weaker than that of Germany, but the Soviet Union also has a great geographical advantage in the decisive battle of Moscow, which is about to begin, as long as Germany concentrates its forces to attack Moscow, more than one million Soviet troops in Leningrad and Stalingrad will come out to flank the German army attacking Moscow.

The Soviets and Germans have their own advantages, and God knows what the decisive battle for Moscow will look like.

Churchill's greatest wish was for the last German soldier to kill the last Soviet soldier, and then the British gentleman sent the last German army to the gallows, and Britain continued to rule the world as a savior.

Now both the Soviet Union and Germany have put on a big posture, and more than 10 million troops on both sides are around Moscow, which is the largest battle in the history of human warfare, and there is no one.

Churchill was excited! But he was afraid that the Soviets would not be able to inflict fatal damage on the Germans, so Churchill ordered an air force to be sent to Moscow, all planes were painted with Soviet military aircraft logos, and all pilots wore Soviet uniforms.

All kinds of weapons and ammunition were also shipped to the USSR by Churchill's order, and as for the German submarine threat, the convoy with sonar was not too afraid of German submarines.

Of course, the United States will not be left behind, the United States has never been short of weapons and equipment, and it can be directly transported to the Soviet Union through the Bering Strait, and 3,000 tanks and 3,000 aircraft were urgently sent to the front line in Moscow.

Everyone was preparing, and Rommel, of course, was no exception, and for the Battle of Moscow, Rommel was always thinking.

The siege of the city was always the most brutal battle, and the Soviet capture of Berlin cost more than a million soldiers in casualties, when the German defense of Berlin was only 550,000.

And now that the Soviet army has more than 3 million troops and more than 2 million militias, how much price will Germany pay to capture Moscow, the capital of the Soviet Union? Two million or three million? Is it necessary to fight all the more than 3 million German troops on the Eastern Front to take Moscow, if Moscow is taken in that way, Germany will not be far from defeat.

It is definitely not advisable to storm Moscow, if the Soviet army is in the field, Rommel does not mind eating them in one go, but now the Soviet army relies on the fortified city to defend, which is a bit of a headache for Rommel.

Rommel personally went to the outside of the Moscow defense circle and carefully observed the Soviet army's Moscow defense with the "eye of God", Zhukov's various arrangements were very perfect, no matter which direction the German army attacked Moscow, it was impossible to easily succeed.

As for the encirclement of Moscow, don't mention it, the diameter of the Moscow defense circle is more than 200 kilometers, on the left side of Moscow is Leningrad in the north, where there are 500,000 or 600,000 troops, on the south side of Moscow is Stalingrad, where there are 780,000 troops, and behind Moscow is the garrison of the Ural industrial region, where there are nearly 1 million troops.

Rommel can put a maximum of five million troops on the front line, what will he do to encircle Moscow, which can be defended from all sides? Encircling Moscow is the stupidest tactic.

Germany did not have any chance of encircling Moscow, and even if Rommel could encircle Moscow, for how long? Two months later, the harsh winter of the Soviet Union came, and then the Soviet counteroffensive came, which was the biggest strategic mistake for the scattered German army.

Interspersed behind Moscow? This doesn't seem to work, if Moscow is not taken, when the Soviet army counterattacks, it will cut off the return route and supply lines of the interspersed troops, and the troops that penetrate behind Moscow will definitely die more than they live.

Now it is not advisable to encircle and storm, and even the penetration of Germany's best is no longer effective. How to take Moscow with the fewest casualties made Rommel white-headed.

When people are tired, they have to sleep, and when they sleep, they have to use pillows, which is the saying that drowsiness meets pillows, and Rommel met this good thing.

The head of the German intelligence service, Canaris, suddenly sent Rommel a crucial piece of information that the highly decorated Marshal of the Soviet Red Army Yegorov and the commander of the Special Army Group in the Far East, Field Marshal Blyukhel, were not executed by Stalin, but were secretly imprisoned.

In order to maintain the "hall of words" and create "personal superstitions" about himself, Stalin extremely erroneously elevated all kinds of different opinions within the party and at home into hostile contradictions that threatened the Soviet power, and waged a brutal struggle and ruthless blows.
