On October 1, 1939, Lin Youde got up early in the morning and rushed to the map room of Sanssouci Palace at dawn.

The staff officers in charge of mapping operations in the map room immediately saluted him.

"How's the situation at the front?" Lin Youde nodded as a return gift, and then asked bluntly.

At this time, the staff officer on duty who was in charge of the operation of the entire map room immediately replied: "It is very calm, the night reconnaissance plane did not find any abnormal movement of the Russian army, and the prisoners captured by the night reconnaissance force last night did not say anything unusual." ”

"Good." Lin Youde nodded with satisfaction.

On the map in front of him at this time, the attack forces of Army Group B were clearly deployed in place, and a large number of symbols representing various divisions of different formations were densely stacked on the military demarcation line between Army Group B and the Second Ukrainian Front. Lin Youde looked at the map, and felt like he was playing "Iron Ambition 3" again, but the division and brigade logos here were not stacked, but distributed on a large map with a scale far larger than the game.

Behind the divisions and brigades on the first line, there was also a dense distribution of the second group of attack troops, which did not deploy, but maintained a state of maneuver at any time by road. Every highway that can be used to maneuver to the Russian-controlled area is marked with red lines, and countless red lines are like thousands of tiny minions piercing into the enemy's front.

On the opposite side of the solid German cluster, the Russian unit markings are much sparse, but this is not because the Russians have too few troops here, but because Lin Youde's intelligence agency only has the intelligence of so many Russian units. The role of the fox's Eye of Odin on the battlefield is greatly reduced, because it is impossible for high-level spies to know the intelligence of the battlefield, although they can steal the deployment at the front level, but the layout of the specific units below can only rely on the infiltration reconnaissance team of the front-line troops.

Russian military units with confirmed intelligence are indicated by dark blue signs, and those that are uncertain are corresponded by light blue signs. The entire Russian front is a different shade of blue, and it looks quite beautiful.

At this time, a telegraph operator came to Lin Youde and saluted Lin Youde.

"Report, Eye of Odin calling."

"Read."

"Our company has received confirmed information that the Russian army will launch a new frontal offensive in Warsaw on October 6."

Lin Youde couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth.

Odin's Eye did not get the news that Army Group B was going to counterattack, in fact, even the German High Command only Brauchitsch and a few others knew the attack time of Army Group B, and Manstein's attack plan was not notified to the German High Command at all, it was completely formulated by Army Group B General Staff, and then handed over to Lin Youde for direct review and approval. The German High Command only received the supply request from Army Group B, and during the entire period of preparation for the offensive, what the German High Command did was to send the assembled quartermaster trains one by one to Krakow, the general logistics center of Army Group B, in accordance with Army Group B's requirements.

For this reason, Halder and others protested with Lin Youde, especially during the time when Viola came back from the front line, they gave Viola a large number of small reports, and even said that "Lin Youde wants to override the German army command and monopolize military command".

Viola didn't pay much attention to these sensational claims, but she was worried that Lin Youde would lead to a dual command system in the army. In the last battle, because Hindenburg and Ludendorff, who were in charge of the command of the Eastern Front, were too prestigious, and the command of Fa Jinhan was unable to dispatch the troops of the Eastern Front, the two sides began to compete for military resources in front of the Kaiser, and finally Fa Jinhan could not get enough troops on the Western Front.

Lin Youde assured Viola that he was only doing this for the sake of secrecy, and that he would not deprive the German high command of the right to make operational decisions. Under his repeated assurances and the offensive of rolling the sheets, Viola finally acquiesced to Lin Youde's approach.

By the time Viola returned to Rhodes, it was mid-September, and the entire operation was almost ready.

Lin Youde took the telegram from the telegraph operator's hand, and after carefully confirming the text on it, he shook his head slightly: "It seems that the Russians are completely unaware of how deadly our attack will be. ”

It is impossible for Russia to completely ignore the signs of an offensive, the offensive of large corps is almost impossible to keep secret, and the enemy has thousands of ways to obtain all kinds of information. Therefore, the main purpose of the secret operation in the early stage of the offensive operation of the large corps is to cause the enemy to misjudge the purpose of the operation.

Lin Youde has put a lot of effort into this.

In addition to keeping the battle plan of Army Group B secret, Lin Youde also carried out extensive operations to bully the enemy on the front line. He sent a large number of reconnaissance planes to the Russian-occupied area south of Warsaw, and airdropped several groups of elite paratrooper reconnaissance teams -- these people, unlike the 141 who carried out special operations, had obvious military insignia on their uniforms, and the tasks they carried out were relatively "conspiratorial."

These actions created the illusion that Army Group B's elite armoured group would launch a surprise attack on the Russian forces south of Warsaw, attracting the Russians to send several Guards divisions and a number of Cossack units south of Warsaw.

At the same time, Lin Youde also deliberately let many front-line supply depots vacate a large area of the storage area, creating the false impression that the supplies needed for the attack had not been fully delivered, so as to confuse the Russians and make the Russians misjudge the time of the attack.

While this series of deceptive operations was underway, Lin Youde also asked the German high command to continue to formulate and refine their pincer offensive plan in order to confuse the Russians.

In addition, judging from the information sent by the mole of Odin's Eye from Bialystok, Lin Youde's failure to send additional Zhanji troops to Army Group B also played a very misleading role.

Lin Youde had a vague hunch that this offensive operation would achieve far more success than he imagined.

He looked up at the wall clock and checked the time.

Just then, the door to the map room opened.

Lydia yawned into the map room, and as soon as she saw Lin Youde, she came up and hugged him from behind. At the same time that Lydia's cheeks pressed against Lin Youde's back, her soft and elastic breasts were also pressed up, and the feeling of pressure made Lin Youde's whole body a little more energetic.

"I'm sorry, I just got up now, and I was thinking about getting up to keep you safe when you left the bed......" Lydia said in a soft voice, yawning as she spoke.

"Oh-chan has been following me." Lin Youde said and pointed to the Oh sauce next to him who was eating potato chips.

"Huh?" Lydia removed her face from Lin Youde's back and looked at Oh-chan, "Really, but I remember that Oh-chan wasn't near the room when I went to bed last night......"

"Oh-chan comes to me early every morning, although she still can't understand human language, but she's quite dutiful as a guard."

Lydia pursed her lips, let go of Lin Youde's waist, stretched a little distance, and said, "Then, I'll go back and get some sleep." ”

"Go, go, go." Lin Youde gently touched Lydia's head.

"Poof." Lydia said and turned to Lin Youde, standing on tiptoe to reveal a side face.

Lin Youde grabbed her chin directly, twisted her face and kissed her on the lips.

After the kiss, Lydia's face flushed, and she tiptoed higher as if she wanted to catch up with Lin Youde's lips who were leaving, but Lin Youde held her shoulders.

"Let's go, I have business to do here." As he spoke, Lin Youde turned her ninety degrees in place, aimed at the door, and then patted her on the buttocks.

Lydia walked all the way to the door, pouted and glanced back at Lin Youde while opening the door, that look was really amorous.

After the red-haired girl left, Lin Youde turned his attention to the map again, and at this time he suddenly found that the young staff officers all looked like they were in a state of despair.

"Be careful." Lin Youde coughed lightly and said, "She can just pinch off the little brother below you." ”

The young staff officers looked at each other, and after Lin Youde coughed again, they hurriedly turned their attention back to the work at hand.

At this time, another telegraph operator entered the room through the side door and went straight to Lin Youde to stand up and salute.

"Report, Army Group B Command called: No one slept tonight."

This is a code word that is ready for an attack.

Although Lin Youde does not think that the Russian army has the ability to decipher the German cipher code, but considering the excellent performance of the American and British decoding departments in another time and space, Lin Youde is still very cautious in the transmission of important information, not only using a large number of codes, but also changing the cipher code very frequently.

Lin Youde nodded to the telegraph operator, and then turned to the staff officer on duty beside him.

"The state of the front now?"

"No anomalies, sir."

Lin Youde glanced at the watch on the wall and saw that there were still fifteen minutes before the start time of the attack, so he approached the huge map table and stared at the large number of troop tags on it.

In another fifteen minutes, the corps artillery of Army Group B will begin fire preparation, which will take up to three hours.

The Russian army attacking the front did not have a strong defensive position worth three hours of shelling, and the reason why the fire preparation time was so long was entirely so that the Russians had time to move the battle queen to the front line.

Only in this way can we use the sonic weapons that have been deployed on the front line to kill and injure the Russian army's warriors as much as possible, so as to reduce the loss of the attack on the German warriors.

Ideally, the Russian army's battle Ji troops deployed on the front line should be disabled in the first wave of confrontations, so that the German battle Ji troops do not need to be put into battle, just follow the armored forces to advance.

However, whether the actual battle situation can be so ideal or not is not up to Lin Youde.

Lin Youde glanced at the wall clock on the wall again, and then said to the staff officer on duty beside him: "Send a report to the headquarters of Army Group B, 'The whimper of the violin in autumn hurts my heart with a monotonous dullness'." ”

"Yes, sir." The staff officer saluted Lin Youde, then turned back and nodded to the herald who had been on standby for a long time.
