Chapter 432: German Reinforcement
In the city of Cherkar, Kazakhstan, the battle between the Fourth Field Army of the Dingbei Army and the German and Russian armies was beyond the expectations of most people, and the victory and defeat were determined in only one day and night, you must know that there are 100,000 Russian troops in Cherkar City, and 180,000 well-trained German troops who dominate Europe. ⊙ Top-of-the-Line Novel, x.
In this way, 180,000 German elites armed to the teeth, plus 100,000 Russian troops, were completely lost in one day and night under the attack of less than 100,000 Dingbei troops. Although the Dingbei Army has the help of new weapons and aircraft, it can't be so against the sky, does this make these armies in Europe have a way to live? I really can't play normally.
The commander of the 10th Russian Army, Filippovich, and the commander of the German Army, Maximi, fled with the remnants of the army to the city of Zarkamets, more than 200 kilometers west of the city of Cherkar, before they stopped fleeing.
The 20,000 men of another division of the German Army are located in this city of Zarkamets, and the 9th Army of the Russian Army has more than 20,000 people from an infantry division.
When they arrived at the city of Zarcames, the two commanders were immediately depressed as soon as they counted the remaining troops, especially the commander of the 10th Army, Filippovich, whose 100,000 troops of the 10th Army were almost all annihilated, and there were less than 6,000 people who could flee to the city of Zarcames with him, and most of them were already bare-handed.
Maximi's mood was not much better, the elite of the 180,000 German Army. Only about 50,000 people were left who had withdrawn to the city of Zarkames. Moreover, all the heavy equipment was lost, and more than half of the German officers and soldiers even lost their guns. However, the Germans were able to escape more than 50,000 people in that situation, which is enough for cattle!
Of the more than 90,000 Russian Army and nearly 130,000 German Army losses, more than 20,000 Russian officers and more than 60,000 German officers and soldiers were surrounded by the troops of the Fourth Field Army in the chaos of the night, laid down their arms when there was no hope of breaking through, and chose to enter the prisoner of war camp of the Dingbei Army, while the other more than 70,000 Russian officers and soldiers and more than 60,000 German officers and soldiers fell forever on this piece of land in Kazakhstan.
However, the Fourth Field Army was not easy in this battle, in the day and night offensive and defensive battle of Cherkar City. More than 13,000 infantry divisions were killed and nearly 10,000 wounded, including more than 2,000 seriously wounded, as well as 8 light Black Wolf tanks blown up by German Army anti-tank grenades and some artillery pieces destroyed in the artillery battle.
Although the two infantry divisions of the Fourth Field Army still maintained their combat effectiveness, the commander of the army, Hu Desheng, did not rush to continue the offensive to the western part of Kazakhstan, but decided to rest in the city of Cherkar for a while, waiting for the five newly formed divisions to join him here in the city of Cherkar. At the same time, they are also waiting for supplies to be sent from the rear.
The day and night offensive and defensive battle in Cherkar City consumed a lot of ammunition for the two infantry divisions, and there were originally 100,000 Russian troops and 20,000 German troops in the western region of Kazakhstan west of Cherkar City. Together with the German-Russian troops who fled from the city of Cherkar, there were at least 100,000 troops, and the western part of Kazakhstan was already next to the Russian European region. Russian European forces could be transferred to the western part of Kazakhstan at any time, so the Fourth Field Army wanted to continue its offensive west of Cherkar. Ammunition must be stockpiled to a certain base, otherwise the battle will be halfway through. If the ammunition can't keep up, then it's sad.
When the German Emperor Wilhelm II learned that his elite 180,000 German troops had suffered a crushing defeat in the city of Cherkar, he was immediately furious, and despite the opposition of the current German Prime Minister Hohenlohe and many other ministers, he insisted on sending another 200,000 elite German troops into Russia's western Kazakhstan to fight.
This is still the German Emperor Wilhelm II, taking into account the opinions of Prime Minister Hohenlohe and many other ministers, otherwise he believes that it is too little to send another 200,000 German Army, and an additional 400,000 to 500,000 Army should be sent, not only to defeat the Dingbei Army in the Russian Kazakhstan region, but also to converge with the armies of the Eight-Nation Alliance in Siberia to ensure the victory of the Eight-Nation Alliance on the entire northern front, recover the areas lost by Russia, and attack the territory under Lin Daxin.
In fact, Germany's ability to join the Eight-Nation Alliance is mainly the idea of the German Emperor Wilhelm II, and many ministers such as Prime Minister Hohenlohe do not agree on this, and most people do not approve of it, believing that Lin Daxin and Germany have no grudges, and Lin Daxin's Northeast Navy, which ranks second in the world, and the Dingbei Army, which ranks second in the world, and the Dingbei Army, which ranks second in the world, are not decorations, and if Germany wants to join the Eight-Nation Alliance, the losses of the German Army and the German Navy will certainly not be small.
After Lin Daxin was born in the first year of the First Wu Dynasty, Western countries believed that the world's largest nightmare was the huge Chinese dragon that was about to rise under the leadership of Lin Daxin, a military strongman in the Far East, so the West set off a wave of yellow peril theory, and the German Emperor Wilhelm II was one of the representatives, and from 1896, the German Emperor Wilhelm II and Tsar Nicholas II continued to communicate and exchange on the so-called Yellow Peril.
Wilhelm II also specially asked the painter Knakofus to create an oil painting called "All the peoples of the world, protect your most precious possessions", also known as the "Yellow Peril", which was presented to Tsar Nicholas II of Russia by the German Emperor Wilhelm II.
On the picture of the "Yellow Peril", the angel symbolizing the Germanic nation holds a shining sword, which is warning the protectors of the European powers, the Yellow Peril has come, and on the other side of the cliff, the clown who symbolizes the Yellow Peril refers to Lin Daxin, who is riding a huge fire dragon, the fire dragon refers to China, which is approaching Europe, and the European countries such as France, Russia, Germany, and Italy are watching with anxiety, the dark clouds are thick, the city is burning, and the catastrophe is coming.
Wilhelm II also painted an inscription: "The peoples of Europe unite to defend your faith and your homeland!" ”
Russian Tsar Nicholas II launched a war against Lin Daxin three years ago by taking advantage of the murder of the Russian minister to the Qing Dynasty Pablofu in Shenyang, on the one hand, to prepare to realize Tsar Nicholas II's plan for Yellow Russia, to turn the four northeastern provinces under Lin Daxin's command into the land of the Russian Empire, and on the other hand, there was no reason for being bewitched by Wilhelm II.
Wilhelm II himself thinks that Lin Daxin is the root of the Yellow Peril problem, and now there is a chance to eliminate the root of the Yellow Peril problem, so he strongly advocated that Germany join the Eight-Nation Alliance, and he believes that this time the eight countries are united, Lin Daxin is no matter how capable he is, this time it is also a break from the food, Germany must participate in it, carve up the territory and wealth of the Qing Dynasty and Lin Daxin, this carving-up feast, he Wilhelm II must not miss it.
This time, Wilhelm II learned of the defeat of the German Army in Cherkar City, regardless of the opposition of Prime Minister Hohenlohe and many other ministers, insisted on continuing to increase the number of troops by 200,000.
Prime Minister Hohenlohe and many other ministers believe that although Germany has joined the Eight-Nation Alliance, it is not appropriate to invest such a huge force, you must know that the German standing army is only 1.54 million in total, and then send these 200,000 troops, Germany has put more than a quarter of the domestic army into this war, you must know that Europe is the foundation of Germany, and now Britain, France, and Russia, which are also members of the Eight-Nation Alliance, are Germany's biggest enemies, but their arms can't twist their thighs. The matter of sending an additional 200,000 elite German troops into the western part of Kazakhstan in Russia was decided by the German Emperor Wilhelm II.
Feeling that the lack of heavy equipment of the German Army, which had previously entered Russia, affected its combat effectiveness, Kaiser Wilhelm II decided to transport 200,000 new heavy equipment from the German Army to the western part of Kazakhstan in Russia.
For Wilhelm II's move to increase the number of troops by 200,000, Tsar Nicholas II raised his hands in favor, and the terrible mood of being lost by the city of Cherkar and the almost annihilation of the Russian Army's 10th Army was also slightly relieved, and Tsar Nicholas II promised Wilhelm II in a telegram that he would mobilize as many wagons as possible to help the German Army transport 200,000 troops and their equipment, including 200,000 German Army heavy equipment, to the western part of Kazakhstan in the fastest possible time. For example, the city of Zarkamets, where the German and Russian armies are now concentrated, has a railway line from Russian Europe to it.
Tsar Nicholas II also ordered the newly formed 11th Army of the Russian Army, with 250,000 troops, to immediately march to the city of Zarkames in western Kazakhstan, and the armies of Germany and Russia would assemble in the city of Zarkamets to prevent the Dingbei Army from continuing to attack westward, and wait for an opportunity to prepare for a counterattack.
The other 1 Russian Army has just formed a group army, the 12th Army's 250,000 troops have been sent to the border area between Kazakhstan and Siberia, after all, the Dingbei Army has occupied most of Kazakhstan, and has threatened the Siberian region west of the Yenisei River and east of the Ural Mountains that Russia now controls from the south, plus the 8th Army of the Russian Army that is already in this border area, the Russian Army will concentrate more than 500,000 troops in this area, and they are likely not to be satisfied with defense alone.
Russia has formed two new army groups in a short period of time, and according to Russia's 1 million army expansion plan, another 500,000 troops, two new army groups, are also stepping up their formation, and the Russian War Department is also planning a new army expansion program, which will add more land forces.
