723 Stalin Assault II Pilsudski Plan
On one side, the Ribbentrop mission sent by the German Führer Hitler feasted and drank in the East Rimlin Palace, while on the other side of Warsaw, Bōland's army held an important military meeting at about the same time. In addition to the supreme commander of the Bōlan army, Field Marshal Himigvi, the director of the armed forces, there were commanders of several army groups, military advisers from Great Britain and France, as well as heads of military delegations from China, Germany, and Italy.
"According to the reports of the Belorussian Army Group and the Ukrainian Army Group on the eastern bank of the Bouag River.
During this time, the Soviet Red Army was massing in the vicinity of Minsk and Kiev. In addition, the Air Force reported that Soviet reconnaissance planes frequently crossed the border into the airspace of Bōlan to reconnoiter and take pictures. Soviet spies also became active in Western Belarus and Western Ukraine, and since the second half of 1 yo, the Bōlan counterintelligence agency has uncovered a number of Soviet espionage organizations. In addition, the Bōlan intelligence department also discovered a large-scale military exercise organized by the Soviet side, which was a large-scale military attack, and after breaking the enemy's main force, it retreated sharply to a strong defensive area... There are all kinds of indications that it is very likely that the Soviet Union will preemptively launch a war to attack Bōlan in the near future, before the three kingdoms of Bōde! The head of the General Staff of Bōlan, Colonel-General Leozovsky, stood in front of a huge military map and said loudly: "According to our judgment of the disposition of the forces of the Soviet Red Army. The Soviets wanted to focus their offensive on the east bank of the Bouag River, and their main intention was to seize Western Ukraine and Western Belarus: if conditions permitted, they would also march to Warsaw to force us out of the anti-Soviet alliance.
Therefore, in view of the deployment of the enemy's troops, the Director General of the Ministry of Defense and the Armed Forces, Marshal Shimigvi, instructed the General Staff to make the following plan!
When the Soviet Union launched an offensive, our Bōlan army should adopt the general operational idea of defending first and then counterattacking. Our defense system should be deployed along the entire Soviet border, divided into four army groups according to the region. They are the Ukrainian Army Group deployed on the border of East and West Ukraine, the Belarusian Army Group deployed on the border of East and West Belarus, the Army Group Buvag deployed on the front line of the Bouag River, and the Reserve Army Group deployed around Warsaw.
The Ukrainian army group will include seven infantry corps, three cavalry corps and one armored cavalry brigade: at full strength, the total strength of the army group will be as high as 350,000, with 1,000 artillery pieces of various types and more than 1,000 tanks and armored vehicles.
(There are a total of 11 tank regiments, including tank regiments attached to the infantry corps and cavalry corps and tank regiments of armored cavalry brigades, which are mainly equipped with heavy No. 1 tanks provided by China and Germany, Bōlan's self-produced Bi, TKS small tanks, 7-TP light tanks, etc.) By Pushedsy, Colonel-General Mirsky Kruvich served as commander of the army group.
The Belorussian army group will consist of eight infantry corps, three cavalry corps, one armored cavalry brigade and one fortress division (to defend the Brest fortress): the total strength of the army will be as high as 400,000 at full strength, with 1,200 artillery pieces of various kinds, and more than 1,100 tanks and armored vehicles. The commander of the Belorussian army group will be Colonel-General Bortenovsky.
The Ukrainian and Belorussian armies were to be used to defend against a possible surprise attack by the Soviet Red Army. In the rear of these two army groups, an army group of the Bouag River will also be deployed along the Bouag River valley as a second line of defense against the Soviet invasion. The group army consisted of 10 infantry corps, two cavalry corps, and an armored cavalry brigade: it had more than 1,300 artillery pieces, more than 1,200 tanks, and abundant armor, with a total strength of nearly 500,000. The commander of the Bouis River Army was General Rusinsky.
In addition, we have formed a strong reserve army near Warsaw, consisting of nine infantry corps and three cavalry corps. With more than 1,200 artillery pieces and no tanks and armored vehicles, the total strength of the reserve army will be about 400,000 once mobilization is completed. The commander of the reserve army was Colonel-General Shilinger.
Finally, I would like to explain that the 45 corps and three armored cavalry brigades possessed by the above four armies are currently at 50 percent full: according to the plan, they will reach full strength by the end of October 1937! And if war breaks out, within ten days we can mobilize more than a million reservists. In short, with the favorable terrain and sufficient troops, I believe that we are capable of keeping the enemy out of the country! And after repelling the Soviet invading army, the Bōlan army will also take the lead in counterattacking into the Soviet Union and recovering the entire territory of Belarus and Ukraine! To this end, we, the General Staff of Bōlan, have drawn up a battle plan for the total defeat of the USSR ...
Pilsudski Project! "The Admiral is the same." Admiral Orzhovsky was preparing the Pilsudski plan drawn up by the Bōlan General Staff..., when he was interrupted by the head of the German delegation, Admiral Ludwig Beck.
Admiral Beck said: "Even if Bōlan's four armies complete their mobilization and reach full strength, the total strength will only be 1.65 million, while according to the estimates of the German and Chinese General Staffs, the total strength of the Soviet Red Army after the completion of the general mobilization will be as many as 6 million to 7 million!" In addition, there are several million reserve troops that can replenish losses in a timely manner. We believe that your army is on a par with the Soviet Red Army in terms of quality and the quality of weapons and equipment, and the Soviet Red Army has also experienced five years of training in the Far East War, and has very rich experience in actual combat! In this case, 'the huge numerical superiority of the Soviet Red Army was absolutely capable of destroying the defenses of Bōlan in a short time!' Therefore, I believe that the correct defense plan for the Bōlan side is to establish a defensive line with greater depth along the Bouag River...... And it is necessary to build fortifications on the periphery of the city of Warsaw, to prepare for the defense of Warsaw! The task of the Bōlan army in the face of the superior Soviet attack should be to hold on to the reinforcements, and you only need to hold on until the beginning of 1938 to make all preparations with our allied forces with China and the Russian Empire. After that, we will be able to launch a counteroffensive and help Bōlan recover all the lost ground. If possible, we hope to be able to give the Soviet Red Army a blow of annihilation in the eastern part of Bōlan! To create the most favorable conditions for the future liberation of the whole of Ukraine, Belarus and Russia. "General Baker!" Sitting on the side, Deputy Chief of the General Staff of Bōlan, General Kutsheba, said in a non-impositive manner: "You exaggerate the strength of the Soviet Red Army too much, right? Although the Soviets have more troops than us, their combat effectiveness is not strong, and they have been defeated in every foreign war over the years, and now even the Far East war is losing one after another! And even the numerical superiority of the Soviet Red Army was not as great as you say, we estimate that the total strength of the Soviet Red Army was at most six million men.
However, at least 200 to 2.5 million will be used to defend the Far East and Central Asia...... The remaining 3.5 million to 4 million men could not all be used for the offensive, including a large number of logistics troops, and the huge territory of the Soviet Union also needed troops to defend, and the army that could really be used to attack Bōlan would not exceed 2 million. We could completely defeat the 2,000,000 Soviet Red Army with 1,650,000 bōlan troops! And we will also receive assistance from Germany and China, General Beck, what do you think? How can Germany and China help bōlan? ”
Hearing this question, General Baker, head of the German delegation, and Lieutenant General Wu Tuohao, head of the Chinese delegation, who was sitting opposite him, glanced at each other, and Wu Tuohao said: "We can provide a very elite armored division with 380 tanks No. 2 and No. 3, which are much better than the T-28 tanks of the Soviet Red Army. There was also a bombing aviation division with more than 400 aircraft that could be used to support the Bōlan army in operations. He paused and looked at Marshal Himigvi and said, "Your Excellency, in addition to the [Medium] ** team, there are also 250,000 Russian Imperial Army troops that will be transported to Europe, and those units have been tested in the Far Eastern War and are the best infantry, if they can enter the territory of Bōlan to fight..." Hearing Wu Tuohao's words, Marshal Himigvi raised his head slightly, and then said while looking at Wu Tuohao: "Mr. Lieutenant General, thank you for your generosity, but the Republic of Bōlan can defend its territory, and we don't need any foreign ground troops to enter Bōlan to help us fight...... Of course, your bomber divisions will be able to enter Bōlan, and we would like the Germans to send the same number of planes into Bōlan.
Himigvi's words made the foreign generals present stunned, they actually didn't want a powerful [Chinese] armored division to drive into Bōlan! Although the Bōlans were confident in resisting the Soviets on their own, a few hundred more tanks was always a good thing, right?
"Your Excellency, Marshal!" Admiral Baker stood up, "I will report your proposal to the Führer, and I am sure that the Führer will be more than happy to help our important ally Bōlan in any way he can!" However, I would suggest that the Bōlan side should not underestimate the combat effectiveness of the Soviet Red Army, and at least build fortifications outside Warsaw and Lviv, just in case. In addition, Germany, Bōland, and China should also draw up a backup plan for sending troops into Bōlan if necessary...... "No! Hearing that Germany was going to send troops into Bōland, Himigvi also stood up: "According to our Pilsudski plan..., the combined forces of Germany, China, and Russia should be broken by the Soviet Red Army in front of the strong defenses of the Bōlan army." The troops were divided into two routes, one along the Sea of Bōlo to attack Leningrad: one way south from Latvia, outflanking the retreat of the Soviet Red Army, and cooperating with the Bōlan army to encircle and annihilate the main force of the Soviet Red Army. Speaking of this, the marshal paused for a moment, and then looked around at the generals in the conference room, "Gentlemen, the detailed plan of Pilsudski's plan will be sent to you later, and we hope that this will be the final battle plan for the destruction of the Soviet Union!" Seeing Marshal Himigvi's stubborn insistence on not allowing "all the foreign ** teams" to enter Bō Lan Wu Tuohao's heart, a hint of foreboding swelled in his heart. He knew that Himigvi was doing so in order to prevent German and Russian armies from setting foot on Bōlan territory! It seems that the hatred of the Bōlan people for the Germans and the Russians has not been put down, but what about the Germans and the Russians?
Did they give up their ambitions for Bōlan?
After a hearty lunch, somewhat overdone, Ribbentrop and Schulenburg were invited by the Bolsheviks into a cinema room with about fifty soft-backed chairs.
In front of each chair is a small table where waiters put on beautifully crafted pastries, fruits, sweets and Champagne from the Heinkel brand. Apparently Stalin had a clear background check on Ribbentrop. Here the Russians showed a long documentary, the main thing was to show the guests how strong the military power of the Soviet Red Army was!
The film includes a grand scene from the 1936 May Day parade, in which hundreds of huge tanks form a neat phalanx through Moscow's Red Square, much to Ribbentrop's surprise. These tanks should be the T-28 "heavy tanks" that made it difficult for Guderian to sleep! According to Guderian's estimates, the combat effectiveness of this tank should not be weaker than that of the German tank No. 3.
From the outside, it seems that the Soviet T-28 is relatively tall and powerful, and the No. 3 jointly developed by Germany and China seems to be a little short and fat, and it seems that the individual is also slightly smaller. Behind the phalanx of the T-28, there is the T-26 tank in sight, which is also a light tank with good xìng capabilities.
The Wehrmacht captured a lot of T-26s in the Far East that were not abandoned by the Soviet Red Army due to mechanical problems, and made a comprehensive analysis of it, and came to the conclusion that the defense of this tank was somewhat thin, but the firepower was very powerful, much stronger than the No. 1 tank. Its 37mm gun is powerful enough to penetrate the armor of the No. 1 and threaten the frontal armor of the No. 2 tank even at close enough distance!
Ribbentrop counted the number of T-28 and T-26 tanks on the movie screen, there were probably more than 500 T-28s and as many as 2,000 T-26s! With so many tanks placed anywhere, it will be a formidable armored force to be reckoned with. And these tanks are only part of the tanks owned by the USSR! After the phalanx of tanks passed, there were rows of artillery towed by wagons as far as the eye could see. The most striking of these is a 57mm cannon with a long barrel! Ribbentrop estimated that the barrel diameter of such a gun should be between 60 and 63 times (in fact, 635 times), and he knew that this should be a powerful anti-tank gun! It was a new type of artillery developed by the Soviet Union to compensate for the lack of tanks in them. It seems that after returning to Germany, it will be necessary to write a report to alert the Wehrmacht to the powerful armored forces of the USSR and the new anti-tank weapons! Maybe that's what the Soviets really wanted to show themselves about their tanks and anti-tank guns? They were warning the Germans to think clearly about the consequences when they came to the aid of Bōran......
After watching countless army weapons and equipment, the movie camera turned to the sky again, and hundreds of I-15 and I-16 fighters of the Soviet Red Air Force, as well as dozens of huge TB-3 four-engine heavy bombers, swept over Red Square in a neat formation. Ribbentrop showed little interest in the planes, and routinely applauded with the high-ranking Soviet figures. At this moment the lights of the cinema room came on, and Stalin was the first to stand up, and walked up to Ribbentrop with vigorous steps, and stretched out his hand to shake him.
"Monsieur Ribbentrop." The great leader of GCISM said with a smile on his face: "You have seen with your own eyes the great force of the Soviet state, and this was the case in May last year, you know that we are not in the habit of wasting time!" I think you'll tell Monsieur Hitler exactly what you've seen, right? Would you like to take a copy of the film from us and take it back to Berlin? Ribbentrop smiled and said: "Thank you, Stalin, I think the Führer will reconsider Soviet-German relations after seeing the contents of this documentary." "Of course, the Soviet Union and Germany will find a lot in common." Stalin took Ribbentrop's arm, laughed merrily, and said: "We are all European countries, and at the same time we are oppressed by England and France...... If our two countries are caught in a protracted war, the only ones who will really benefit are the inferior yellow race in the East and the two vile countries of England and France. If we unite, then the whole world will be in the pocket of Germany, the USSR! Please tell Führer Hitler that the Soviet Union had no ambitions for the territory of Bōland, and that we only wanted to get back the land on the east bank of the Bouag River. In addition, the three kingdoms of the bōra sea can also be shared by us...... Lithuania and Latvia could belong to the German Soviet Union as long as Estonia. After we have divided Bōland, Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia, Germany can go west and fight France! And we, the Soviet Union, will go east and settle the ledger with the "Chinese" countries! At this point, the dictator gritted his teeth, and his eyes were full of the god of the yīn calendar: "These Chinese people are so hateful, they supported Trotsky first and now Anastasia, and provoked a bloody war on the territory of the Soviet Far East for five years!" Hundreds of thousands of young lives have been lost because of this! If they weren't allowed to pay for their blood debts, these yellow-skinned monkeys wouldn't have known at all that the world was ruled by our white race! Ribbentrop, who could not understand Russian, was the former ambassador to the Soviet Union, von Schulenburg, and his eyes widened in surprise as he translated Stalin's racist remarks. An internationalist is full of white supremacist racism! It was as absurd as Hitler was advocating peaceful coexistence with the Jews, but this scene was actually in front of his eyes! I really don't know how the Führer reacted after hearing these remarks?!。
