On 7 April, the German high command reported to Lin Youde that the objectives of the first phase of the campaign had been achieved, that Army Group B offensive group had reached the second phase of the target, under the city of Ostrowits, and that there were no more formed Russian troops west of the line from Rzeszow to Ostrowits.

**

"Dad, you don't seem surprised by this result at all?" Ysera was still sitting in her mother's special seat, looking at Lin Youde curiously, "Obviously, the goal of the first phase of the campaign will be achieved four days earlier than expected." ”

"The depth of the combat area in the first phase of the campaign was only 40 kilometers, and it is not surprising that the goal was completed in three days. What's more, this is a golden combination of Manstein and Guderian, the commander of the Ukrainian Second Front on the Russian side is a guy I don't remember at all, and it's normal for us to quickly defeat him. ”

Lin Youde shrugged his shoulders, then he lowered his head and continued to look at the report in his hand, and muttered softly: "However, the loss is big enough." The Russian army warriors are doing a good job. ”

Because Lin Youde and the German high command did their best to ensure that the number of war queens on both sides in the central Polish battlefield was equal, the corresponding number of war queens on the southern battlefield was slightly insufficient, and the Russian army had an advantage in the strength of war queens. This advantage cannot be reflected when the Russian army is attacking, after all, the speed of the armored forces is much faster than the battle queen who has to stop after walking a distance and wait for the maintenance troops to catch up.

Therefore, almost after the Russian army Zhanji helped the armored forces break through the frontal Polish defense, they have not done anything, but they have just kept advancing after the advancing Russian armored forces.

But when the Germans began to attack, the Russian army's warriors began to show a sense of existence.

According to the report of Army Group B, after the end of the first phase of the campaign, about half of the armored vehicles of the assault group were damaged or unable to fight, and the personnel also paid a considerable number of casualties, and some of the troops with heavy losses needed to be retired for reconstruction.

After reading the report, Lin Youde pushed the report to his daughter.

Isera quickly flipped through the report, and after turning to the bottom, she looked up at Lin Youde and said, "It's obviously a big victory for our side, but looking at the number of jù, the losses of our army are also very large." ”

"Of course, in modern warfare, 10,000 enemies were wounded and 3,000 were self-inflicted, which is already a record worth boasting about. Of course, when specific tactics are adopted, it is indeed possible to destroy the enemy on a large scale, but in that case, the enemy army is not actually annihilated, but loses the ability to continue fighting. The Germans in another time and space were very good at this, they liked to use their armored forces to carry out two breakthroughs on the enemy's battle line, one left and one right, directly to the enemy's command organs and logistics supply lines, and then to outflank the enemy forces still left in front after reaching the goal. ”

Lin Youde casually drew his intentions on the letter paper in front of him, and his plug-in bonuses seemed to work at such times, so the schematic diagram he drew casually looked exactly the same as the battlefield situation map carefully drawn by the best drawing staff.

"The German army in that time and space relied on this tactic to complete many brilliant achievements worth boasting of, and Germany in that time and space fought several battles to annihilate hundreds of thousands of Russian troops in one fell swoop at the beginning of the Soviet-German war."

"Then why don't we resort to this tactic?" Ysera asked with a serious face, "This tactic has a decisive flaw, right?" ”

"Yes."

Then Nia said, "That's all it takes." ”

Nia snatched the pen from Lin Youde's hand and drew an arrow through the breakthrough troops that were outflanking Lin Youde's schematic diagram.

"That's right." Lin Youde laughed and reached out to touch Nia's head, "The flaw of this tactic is here. After the defender discerns the direction of the enemy's breakthrough, it only needs to throw in a large armor cluster for a counter-assault. It doesn't matter if the counter-assault forces are completely wiped out by the attacker, the counter-assault forces will consume a lot of the attacker's vital forces, so that the attacker has no way to accomplish its intended goal. What's worse is that this kind of detour will allow the flanks of the armored forces to be completely exposed to the defensive side, and as long as the command system of the defending side is not destroyed by the enemy's rapid breakthrough, and the reserves still have considerable combat effectiveness and can be put into battle at any time, the power of this armored breakthrough battle will not be reflected. ”

"I don't understand that." Nia smiled, "All I know is that such a thin one can be interrupted with a little force." ”

Lin Youde's expression was very embarrassed.

He had just thought that Nia had shown off her military talents.

"However, what Nia said is also correct in a way." Lin Youde thought about it for a moment, "In the time and space over there, there is such a battle example. The German commander of the battle was Afrika Korps Erwyn Rommel, who used a tactic of high tide based on the conditions of the North African desert - in fact, a modified version of the German armored assault just mentioned. ”

Lin Youde searched for memories, because it had been nine years since he had traveled over, and every part of another time and space had become a distant past, and he didn't remember the specific details of this battle very well. After thinking about it for a long time, he found nothing, so he had to explain to Ysera in a more general way: "In that battle, Rommel broke through the British defense, and according to his tactics of rising tide, he immediately stuffed two armored divisions and one lightly armed division in his hands through the breach. However, the British army did not panic as expected, but stabilized their position and surrounded Rommel's troops. ”

"And then Rommel was wiped out?" Ysera frowned, "How do I remember you said he came back from Africa safely?" ”

"That's because after trapping Rommel beautifully, the British made a fool of themselves. In the encirclement plan formulated by the British army, it was stipulated that the command of the entire battlefield would be handed over to different generals at different stages, which caused the British troops to fall into chaos, and then Rommel seized the opportunity to crush the British army that surrounded him beautifully. ”

"That's right...... Isera smacked her lips hard, "how does it sound, the British army on another plane is also very faced." ”

Lin Youde smiled and said, "You can't let Isabella hear this." ”

"I'm not that stupid."

Lin Youde took a sip of coffee, and then continued to say to his daughter: "In my military theory, the tactics used are completely different from the German army in another time and space. My tactics have some parts that emphasize the detours after the breakthrough, but I also draw nourishment from the Russian style of warfare. ”

In fact, Lin Youde's tactics are the interspersed tactics of the People's Liberation Army in another time and space, but he never told his daughters and wives about this—just as he never told his daughters and wives that his music was copied from the music of another time and space.

"What the Russian army is using now on the frontal battlefield is a typical Russian-style method of warfare, and the pioneer of the tactics is Brusinov in the last war. In the offensive operation that made him famous, Brusinov used the tactic of looking for weak points on all fronts, and then quickly throwing a large number of troops into them. And then the Russian generals developed his tactics, they put strong pressure on every point of the entire front, we could block the Russian offensive in half of the area, but in the other half, we failed. Then the Russian army poured into our line of defense from the areas where we had failed, and it was no longer possible for us to maintain a relatively complete and continuous line of defense. ”

Lin Youde paused and looked at Ysera, wanting to see if his daughter was smart enough to understand what he meant.

Ysera lived up to Lin Youde's expectations.

"That's what happened on the Central Polish Front in March, right?" she said. ”

"That's right," Lin Youde showed a relieved smile, "Combat sappers and armored chasseurs have blocked the Russian offensive in many places, but the entire front has been shattered in the wave impact of the Russian army, and those troops who have held their positions after hard fighting continue to stay in place but are in danger of being isolated and annihilated, so we must retreat and reorganize the defensive line." However, the Russians did not do well enough, their wave offensive was not well organized, and when the troops in the front were exhausted and could not continue to advance, the troops in the rear could not keep up. They gave us the opportunity to retreat and regroup our defenses. So we held our defenses again.

"Ideally, they should attack without interruption without giving us the opportunity to regroup the defensive line, and they will bite the retreating units of our army until all the reserves prepared are consumed. But in fact, it is very difficult to achieve this ideal wave attack, especially the current Russian army, their battlefield communication ability is too poor, to complete this kind of combat ......"

Lin Youde shrugged.

"In contrast, my tactics are much simpler, I use multiple armored units to carry out breakthroughs in multiple locations, but the distance of the breakthrough is not as far as this." Lin Youde pointed to the schematic diagram of another time-space German-style assault he had just drawn on the table, "We only carry out a short-distance penetration of about ten kilometers, quickly seize the key points of the enemy's front line, destroy the enemy's artillery and command communications, and then carry out the next section of interspersing after the enemy's army collapses." And so on until my armored forces were almost exhausted and had to stop. ”

"But, Dad, you've been in the last few wars, all
