Chapter 1447: Right Hook Plan

The murderous warning of the Chinese Empire shook the whole world, and they were all concerned about what the German Empire would choose, whether to stop mobilizing for war. Or did they ignore the warnings of the Chinese Empire and eventually lead to the outbreak of war? After all, the Chinese Empire had only two choices: stop the war mobilization, or directly detonate the war.

In the face of the warnings of the Chinese Empire, the German Empire simply did not have 24 hours to reply. Rather, just two hours after the warning given by the Chinese Empire, the German Foreign Minister Albrech. Feng. The Earl of Ron published his life publicly. He claimed that if the war between the Kingdom of France and the French Empire did not stop, then the mobilization of the German Empire for war would not have stopped. At the same time, he called for the withdrawal of the Kingdom of France's troops from the French Empire in order to achieve true peace. Otherwise, the German Reich would do everything in its power to maintain peace and stability in Europe and protect the interests of the German Reich.

The statement of the German Empire also made the whole world see their toughness. At this moment, the war between the Kingdom of France and the French Empire was in full swing. The Kingdom of France, which had not been good in the past, seemed to be beaten like chicken blood this time, and it was very brave and defeated the French Empire. Now that their vanguard is less than thirty kilometers from Reims, it will take them two days at most to reach the city of Reims, destroy the French Empire, and unify France (of course, by getting rid of the territories that have been ceded to the Kingdom of Belgium and Spain). Under such circumstances, the Kingdom of France would certainly not give up its low-hanging fruit.

Thus, conclusions can be drawn from this. War is inevitable. The people of all countries are either passionately engaged in the war. Or find a way to escape the war. Flee to what they think is safe. Only in this way may he be able to save his own life.

Really. Immediately after the German response was published, the Chinese Empire issued a mobilization order, and from now on, the Chinese Empire entered a state of emergency mobilization. All young people who receive orders must go to the recruitment points in various places in the shortest possible time and join the army.

The first to be mobilized were 12 army groups of retired soldiers, who had been away from the army for some time. However, as soon as you re-enter the army, after a short period of acclimatization. They will be able to bring out their combat effectiveness. It's much faster than recruiting those recruits. Of course, it is obviously impossible to win this war with these retired soldiers alone. Receiving the conscription order, there are also many enthusiastic imperial youths. Cultivated by the Empire, they began military training from an early age. Now is the time to join the Empire* army and contribute their power to the Empire. What's more, young people at this age are also eager to make contributions.

Countless young men began to pack their bags and say goodbye to their families when they received the mobilization order. Go to the troops and get ready to arrive at the battlefield. The husband says goodbye to his parents, wife and children. For them, it may be a parting of life and death. Although, the empire's combat power is the first in the world. But. Once on the battlefield, life and death will be put aside, and no one can guarantee that they will come back alive.

Such a scenario. staged throughout the territory of the empire. Countless young people of the empire want the call of the empire. Begin to join the army. As soon as the powerful warplane of the Chinese Empire was activated, it exploded with great power.

Except for the Chinese Empire. Other member states of the Peace Alliance have also mobilized. In particular, the Kingdom of Belgium and the Kingdom of Spain, two countries at the forefront, have accelerated the pace of mobilization. After all, now it seems that war is inevitable, and if it breaks out, they will be the first to be attacked by the enemy.

The mobilization of the Chinese Empire and the entire Peace Alliance has made the international situation even more tense, and almost everyone has expected that war is inevitable. At a time when the two world powers, the Chinese Empire and the German Empire, were determined to change the pattern of the world with a war, even if God appeared, it was estimated that the war would not be able to stop.

"Gentlemen, the Chinese have already begun to mobilize for war. According to our estimates, the total number of their troops will soon exceed tens of millions. This is indeed a great pressure for us to come. Although the German Empire already had a population of 120 million, we were able to mobilize only 12 million people to the limit. But the Chinese are different, they have a population of 600 million, and if the ambitious emperor wants to, he can raise the number of troops to 20 million, 30 million, or even 60 million! For the German Empire, there was no way out, and we had to establish an advantage in this war. Only in this way can we safeguard our interests! Kaiser Wilhelm I said to the military ministers of the Reich with a solemn face. After all, this war was a challenge to the world hegemony of the German Empire, and the stakes were high, and if it failed, the German Empire would fall into the abyss from which it would never recover. The German Empire, which had been largely unified, would also fall apart. Therefore, Germany must seize this opportunity.

"Your Majesty, the mobilization of the empire has begun, and within half a month, our mobilization will be preliminarily completed. The empire will have five million troops to devote to the war. Within half a year, the empire will have 10 million troops that can be used in combat. Together with the armies of our allies, it is not a problem to achieve superiority in Europe! "Said the Chief of the General Staff of the German Army, Count Moltke. Germany's mobilization capabilities have always been world-class, and the well-established rail transport network in Germany has allowed Germany to easily transport troops to the front. This, of course, was primarily the German Western Front. As for the Eastern Front, it was mainly the battlefields of Russia and the Ottoman Turkish and Chinese Empires. The traffic there is still very bad. The reason why the Germans did not build railways on a large scale in Eastern Europe was to form a buffer zone. Even if the Chinese conquered Eastern Europe, they would not be able to immediately threaten Germany's territorial ideas. After all, Eastern Europe, with its poor transportation, is enough to exhaust the Chinese.

"So, that is, our war can be launched in half a month?" Kaiser Wilhelm I said. In order to gain an advantage in the war, Germany had already made up its mind to strike a preemptive strike, even if it was an undeclared war.

"Yes, Your Majesty! Half a month later, our attack will begin, and the first thing to do is the right hook plan! Count Moltke nodded.

"Tell us about the right hook plan! I believe that there are many others who are not clear about this plan! William I said.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Count Moltke nodded. The people here are all real high-level people in the empire, so naturally they don't have to worry about leaks.

"The Right Hook Plan is a long-standing battle plan that the Empire is preparing to implement in Western Europe, with the aim of eliminating the Kingdom of Belgium in one fell swoop and advancing the front to the south of France. In the Right Hook plan, the empire intends to send 2.5 million troops, divided into three army groups. Army Group A was deployed in the northwestern part of the empire, and once the war began, Army Group A was to break through the Belgian Army's defenses from the north of the Netherlands and enter Belgian territory. Army Group B was deployed in front of the confrontation between the Empire and the Kingdom of Belgium, making a feint attack on the Belgian fortress of Liège and containing the Belgian Army. Army Group C went out to Alsace and Lorraine after the outbreak of the war, and then went all the way south to destroy the Kingdom of France, and at the same time formed an encirclement of the Kingdom of Belgium, and eliminated all the Belgian Army and the Chinese Army in the encirclement! In this case, the whole of Western Europe would be ours. Count Moltke said.

The Right Hook Plan was a long-planned plan by the German General Staff, the main purpose of which was to eliminate the Kingdom of Belgium before the Chinese Empire could react. Then he will go south to the Iberian Peninsula with the power of great victory and settle the Kingdom of Spain, so that there will be no foothold of the Chinese Empire in the whole of western Europe. Even if reinforcements from the Chinese Empire arrived, they would sigh with admiration. Germany would have taken the opportunity to deploy a steel line of defense along the western coast. Only a small number of troops need to be dispatched to hold the western coast. This allowed Germany to concentrate all its efforts on a decisive battle in Eastern Europe and the Chinese Empire. If they can win, then they can drive the Chinese to the Ural Mountains and east of the Ural River, and start a confrontation with the Chinese. After dominating the whole of Europe, the gap between the Germans and the Chinese Empire in terms of strength will be further narrowed. At the same time, because the Far East and Europe were too far away, the Germans could also confront the Chinese Empire for a long time, so as to be invincible.

The three army groups deployed by the Germans on the Western Front, Army Group A were the well-deserved main force, and they would be the most powerful fists to knock the Kingdom of Belgium down in one fell swoop. So, the entire Army Group A includes 6 army groups with an army of 1.2 million people. Army Group B's mission was a feint, so there were only two armies and 400,000 men. Army Group C was a long-distance attack, from Alsace and Lorraine directly to the western straits, so this army group consisted of four and a half armies, totaling 900,000 men.

In addition to these front-line units, the German General Staff prepared two army groups for a reserve of 400,000 people. It can be said that the German troops with the right hook plan have reached 60 percent of the total strength of the German army after mobilization. (To be continued......)
