Chapter 514 What is the 514 1000 Column of Troops
Lin Youde was eating breakfast when a colonel officer appeared at the door of the cafeteria.
"Russia attacked, right?" Lin Youde didn't wait for the colonel to speak, so he asked. Lin Youde made it to his breakfast time and not see anyone other than his family and personal servants - unless there was something of special importance.
"Yes, sir." The colonel said with a nervous face, "The Fourth Air Force of the Air Force, which has just been transferred to Poland, took off to intercept the Russian aircraft group, and at the same time reconnoitred the situation on the battlefield, and they determined that the Russian army has three main breakthrough directions. The Russian army on the northernmost route started from Lithuania on the Baltic coast, the Russian army in the center crossed the border between Belarus and Poland, and seemed to intend to encircle the border city of Bialystok, while the Russian army on the southern route was dominated by the forces of the Kiev Military District, and the most troops participated in the offensive, and the border between Poland and Ukraine was full of attacking Russian troops. β
Lin Youde paused, and said disapprovingly: "It is consistent with the previous speculation of the Eye of Odin, this troop allocation." β
Fox's intelligence analysts believe that the Russian army can get the most adequate supply in Ukraine, Ukraine has a well-established industrial base, the best road conditions, the strongest railway capacity, and sufficient agricultural output, which can support the army to fight. Therefore, they judged that the Russian army would put its main forces in Ukraine.
After breaking through from Ukraine, the Russian army can go north on the one hand and copy Warsaw from the south, and on the other hand, it can attack directly to Bohemia (the territory is mainly the territory of Czechoslovakia in another time and space), Bohemia is the industrial center of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and now it is also an important industrial base of the German Republic, and once Bohemia falls into the hands of the Russians, important cities such as Munich and Dresden in southern Germany will be threatened.
Because of this, it is likely that the Russians will break through from Ukraine and split up in two directions, one north to besiege Warsaw with the other two attacking forces, and the other to attack Bohemia, forcing Lin Youde to defend Bohemia in order to prevent German reinforcements from Warsaw.
Lin Youde ate the bread slowly, chewing and asking, "Has the Command taken countermeasures?" β
"Yes, the High Command has begun to implement Operational Plan No. 1 on the basis of the information obtained from battlefield reconnaissance, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has issued a statement condemning Russia as planned."
"They really made that statement." Lin Youde shook his head, now that Russia and Germany have declared war for so long, condemning Russia for what it is doing is simply out of shape. The whole world knew that sooner or later Russia would attack Germany, or the other way around.
However, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is willing to go through this form, and Lin Youde will not deliberately stop them, anyway, there is no harm in pretending to be pitiful.
He took another bite of bread, and then said to the colonel: "I already know the situation, let the high command keep a close eye on the situation, and at the same time act according to plan No. 1." As soon as we came step by step, there was nothing to be anxious about, we have been preparing for this day since June last year. β
"Yes." Saluted Lin Youde, then turned around and left the restaurant.
Lin Youde spent another five minutes eating his breakfast, and then Viola hurriedly entered the door: "The Russians have attacked!" β
Lin Youde glanced at his wife, who was still wearing pajamas, and replied lightly: "I already know, don't be nervous, you are running around in pajamas like this, and spreading it will affect morale, what 'Russian attack makes Miss President panic' or something, you don't want to see it, right?" β
Viola looked down, and seemed to find herself in her pajamas now, and her face flushed.
"I'm going to go back and change my clothes. Hurry up and eat and meet at the office later. β
Then Viola turned around and ran out of the restaurant, but she forgot to close the door of the restaurant, and Lin Youde could clearly hear her footsteps clicking away.
Lin Youde wiped his mouth and stood up, walked to the door of the restaurant, and just went out to meet Isabella and the fox - the two had slept together a lot since that night, and it seemed that Isabella was indeed very satisfied with the fox's skills.
"You're pretty calm." Isabella stared at Lin Youde's face and commented.
"I'm calm because I'm sure I'm well prepared." Lin Youde spread his hands to Isabella and smiled confidently, "Viola said just now that we will have a meeting in my office later." You two are also eating quickly, and I guess that guy will go straight to the office after changing clothes. β
The fox smiled and replied, "Then let's take what we eat to the office, and wait for Viola to be ready." β
**
Not long after Lin Youde and his two wives sat down in the office, Sissi pushed the door in.
"Oh, there's food here." She said with some joy, "It just so happened that I went to the headquarters to talk to the Berlin high command when I came together, and I haven't eaten anything so far." β
As she spoke, she pulled over a chair and sat down next to Lin Youde's desk, picked up a piece of bread and tore it open, and reported to Lin Youde while eating: "The high command has ordered the troops assembled on the Polish-German border to enter Poland, and the Polish side has given the green light all the way, and it is not surprising that the first batch of military trains can reach Warsaw this evening." On the military column are the combat engineer divisions that you have specially organized to block the Russian army, hoping that they will really complete the task. β
Since receiving the news of the arrival of Iron Ji in Minsk, Lin Youde ordered the now completed combat engineering units to start loading and be in a state of being able to set off immediately at any time. In addition to the combat engineers, the logistics and transport section of the German High Command had already loaded the wagons assembled at the stations on the eastern German border with heavy weapons and supply baggage in advance, and had also completed the replacement of the wheels of the wagons and placed them on waiting on tracks suitable for the width of the rails in Poland.
According to the operational plan, on the first day of the Russian offensive, 1,000 columns will enter Poland. In terms of Lin Youde's feeling as a traverser, 1,000 military columns a day are not counted, you must know the time and space where he came, but there is a super railway transportation operation called the Spring Festival, in the Spring Festival, a railway bureau alone runs nearly 400 pairs of trains every day, and there are many such railway bureaus throughout China. Every day during the Spring Festival, thousands of trains run through the vast railway network, and hundreds of millions of people migrate along the railway lines.
So in Lin Youde's opinion, a thousand columns a day is simply too pediatric, so when he made the plan, he was very dissatisfied, which made Viola very difficult.
Viola told SΓΉ Lin Youde that with the capacity of the German railway network, 1,000 trains is already the limit, and in order to ensure this transmission plan, tens of thousands of dispatchers are required to work together, so there is no guarantee that there will be no chaos in the transportation process. At the same time, Viola also expressed doubts about the authenticity of Lin Youde's statement about the Spring Festival, she believes that Lin Youde must have taken an exaggerated statement, even if the technology of the railway system has made great progress more than 60 years later, it is simply impossible to move hundreds of millions of people along the railway line in less than a month.
Viola's attitude convinced Lin Youde that the Spring Festival in another time and space that every Chinese is accustomed to is a fucking legend, and this legend happens once a year.
In short, on the first day there will be 1,000 trains from Germany, laden with troops and supplies, into Poland, and then the number will be reduced to 600 per day, depending on the conditions, but the intensity of such transportation is still much greater than all the countries of the world imagined.
In order to ensure that these military trains could reach their destinations unimpeded, Lin Youde spent a lot of spit stars at the Eagle's Nest Christmas meeting last year to persuade the Poles to let German dispatchers enter the Polish railway system in advance and be stationed at the stations needed for transportation.
These people will adjust the transportation plan in Poland, coordinate the various stations.
"The High Command is very worried about the state of the Polish railways," Sisi said with a stern expression, "The Polish railways are quite old, although we have invested in them to help them update some equipment, but the High Command is pessimistic about the operation of the 1,000 trains that sent out on the first day, and they think that only about 500 trains can arrive on time, and the rest will be stranded on the Polish railway network on different journeys." β
"I think that's on the table." Lin Youde said to Sissi, "When we first formulated the plan, we made it on the premise that the Polish railways could not allow all the troops to be in position on time. β
Because of this premise, the German High Command was very conservative in several war plans, and basically abandoned the plan to maintain the border defense line between Poland and Russia. The plan of the Poles was to hold Bialystok, Lublin, and other important cities closer to the border, which was even on the border between Poland and Belarus.
Lin Youde, on the other hand, was ready to defend Warsaw, and he even asked the German high command to prepare for the retreat to Poznan if Warsaw could not stand it, anyway, as long as Poznan was not lost, Berlin would be safe.
The reason why the German high command sent trains at such a speed, knowing that the Polish railways could not carry a thousand trains, was also for this purpose: as long as the troops were sent in, and if necessary, the troops could fight as long as they got off the trains, so that they could delay the Russian army and prepare for the defense of the last line of defense in Poznan.
Sissi continued to give a brief introduction to the state of the headquarters, at which point Viola entered the door in her military uniform.
"Oh," Lin Youde said in admiration, "It seems that since the end of the civil war, this is the first time I have seen you wear a military uniform." β
"It's easier to move around, and it's also morale-boosting, isn't it? Okay, when are we going to leave for Warsaw? β
"Uh......" Lin Youde paused, "Whether or not to go to Warsaw depends on the speed of the Russian army's advance, if the Russians are ruthless and send Shenji now, we may not have time to set off, and Warsaw has already fallen." β
