After swallowing the food in his mouth and thinking for a while, the imperial marshal finally spoke slowly: "Don't rush to attack, we are already the closest unit to Red Square, let the soldiers on the front line rest." Judging by the current situation, the Soviet troops stationed near the Cathedral of Ascension were the most powerful, and Zhukov should be in that direction. ”

After laughing a little, he said to his officers: "Marshal Kluger's luck is really not good, and the direction of his attack is exactly in the direction where Zhukov is stationed. He was one step ahead of us in the city, but he was now the slowest on all fronts. ”

This morning, Guderian's armored forces lived up to expectations and fought for battle at the Kuzminki estate, inflicting heavy losses on the 3rd Guards Panzer Front under the command of Vasilevsky with superior tank forces, and annihilating the last formed Soviet armored force in Moscow. And now the south-east of Moscow, already controlled by Guderian's Panzergrenadiers, has even advanced to the Moscow People's Stadium, deploying their forward positions along Stalingrad Street.

The Finnish Army Group, directly north of Moscow, had already captured Bibilevo and, under the encirclement of Liszt's Army Group E, took control of part of the Otradnoye region. Liszt's Army Group E had already crossed the wetlands northeast of Moscow and reached part of the riverside of the Yaouzha River, as well as the Shhurkovo Highway.

Standing up from his table, Rundstedt walked to the front of the map with his hands behind his back, and the High Command gave the order to reduce the size of the front-line troops, the main units mobilized were not the main German forces, part of the Finnish Army Group, and the other part of the Italian Army Group in the south.

The first units to be transferred included 10 infantry divisions in the Italian unit, totaling 15 soldiers. These soldiers will be ordered to return directly to their homeland and be demobilized as reserves, while the demobilized forces of the Finnish Army Group in the north will not be so large, with only about 30,000 to 40,000 men leaving the front line and returning to their homeland.

However, the German army on the other front did not have such good luck, and the N Army under the command of Quchler, as well as the P Army under the command of Bock, and the O Army under the command of Reichenau, would retain only half of the original strength, and the entire 450,000 soldiers drawn out would return to their hometowns and be placed by the government departments to work accordingly.

After all, although the border with the client state of the Siberian Federation stretched for thousands of kilometers along 50 degrees east longitude, the Germans did not have to keep too many defensive troops on this line - it was a complete waste.

According to the final agreement between Germany and the Siberian Federation, the German army would retain about 600,000 troops here, while the Siberian Federation could deploy 200,000 regular troops on the border. However, there was still a long way to go from this ideal on both sides: the Germans deployed more than 2 million troops in four army groups on this line, while the Siberian Federation retained 750,000 troops. The treaty stipulates that the two sides will have two years to adjust the border troops to the required number, but of course this is a later story.

In fact, Germany does not have much so-called power heritage, and in terms of population and territorial scope, it does not have the ability to compete with real powers, and can win one opponent after another, relying on nothing more than more advanced tactical concepts and more systematic, faster and more comprehensive war mobilization.

At the behest of Accardo and with the efforts of every institution in the country, it took only one year for Germany to complete its full mobilization. Factories began to work overtime to produce weapons and equipment under the constraints of wartime laws, and countless young men were immediately armed and trained into elite soldiers.

However, the rapid mobilization and comprehensive mobilization do not necessarily indicate that the war potential is huge, on the contrary, the German army has been unable to expand a large-scale army in the past three months. This speaks volumes about the fact that Germany's war potential, especially its human resource potential, had been thoroughly tapped to the limit.

Germany has a population of only about 100 million, and this is still counting the figures of Austria and other German-American regions, relying on a population of about 100 million to support 7.5 million regular troops, which is a heavy burden on the country's economy and social development. Under normal circumstances, Germany can guarantee the size of 2 million regular troops, which is already a large number of troops.

More than 4 million regular troops, for a Germany that has just experienced defeat, can definitely be described as reckless, not to mention that Germany has almost doubled its size in just two years. Relying on 100 million people to feed 7.5 million troops is an amazing miracle in world history.

Strictly speaking, of course, the 7.5 million troops were fed by countless workers and peasants in the occupied territories, as well as millions of prisoners of war and other ethnic victims in the concentration camps who could not even make ends meet. These people were almost feeding the huge German army with their own blood, which is one of the main reasons why later scholars have criticized the history of the Third Reich.

Undoubtedly, for ordinary Germans, the fact that the front-line troops were able to disband and go home was definitely too good news to be good. The limited reduction of veterans who had served for many years in the German army affected some of their combat effectiveness, but the return of these personnel to their hometowns did once again boost Accardo's prestige in Germany.

Countless retired soldiers and their families took to the streets to support Accardo and become emperor of the Third Reich. Demonstrations have even erupted in some parts of the country against government officials using their power to restrain God's hopes for the German people to ascend to the throne of a more authoritative emperor.

And because the scale of the ground war on the front line was gradually shrinking, the signs of ending the war in Germany were becoming more and more obvious, and the number of client state troops returning to their home countries from the front line was also increasing. Voices in favor of Accardo as the first "Great European Emperor" of all time are beginning to show their roots, all in support of Accardo's ascension to the throne as the titular ruler of Europe, but behind these voices they all agree that countries should maintain a high degree of autonomy.

In line with the attitude of killing and killing, these countries first praised Accardo to an unprecedented height, deducted the high hat of a European emperor to Accardo, and then after flattery, they made their bottom line and attitude clear: We will cheer you when you become emperor, and even give you a cooler title, but everyone lives their own lives, you don't point fingers, we also give you three points of face - a happy ending, isn't it?

Unlike in the past, this time, one of the most prominent families in Germany, the Rudolfins, who lived in the Führer's mansion in Berlin, did not maintain their previous silence. The First Lady of the Empire, Mercedes Rudolph, took Caesar Rudolph to the Vatican in a high-profile manner to receive a blessed Mass in the Papal Chamber, which can be regarded as confirming the claim that the "family sent by God", which has been propagated by the Papal Chamber.

The "Marshal ......" did not withdraw from the headquarters, and the henchman officer of Rundstedt stood beside the marshal and reminded softly: "There is news from the General Staff that Marshal Liszt, Marshal Keitel and Marshal Moder have all submitted letters to persuade the Führer to become emperor, should you also prepare?"

Now in this situation, everyone knows that the "Chosen Family", which seems to be as powerful as the Chosen Country, seems to really intend to add to their yellow robe, so everyone has also put down their reserved attitude and hurriedly stated their position before the ending is clear. After all, the influence of the name Accardo Rudolph in the Wehrmacht was already greater than that of the Emperor.

As a representative of the conservatives, Brauchitsch naturally did not clearly state his attitude, but before several marshals of the Führer's faction could stand up and speak, the neutrals had already sided with the Führer...... Thinking about it, the attitude of the entire General Staff should be no different from that of the Supreme Command under Accardo after all.

Rundstedt was silent, he was really worried that if he hadn't made his position clear before the Führer's faction spoke, his Army Group A commander would really be transferred back to the rear to live his old age. He didn't worry much about his own safety, after all, he had made countless contributions to Accardo, but he was worried about his military career, and killing a general's opportunity to lead troops would definitely make him a hundred times more uncomfortable than killing him.

"Prepare a telegram for me exhorting the Führer to ascend the throne and become emperor...... Besides, prepare another telegram, since we are late, we will do it better than others......" Rundstedt said to his henchman after thinking for a moment.

As the commander of Army Group A, the German field marshal who conquered London, his mind was crystal clear. Since he was afraid that he would be blamed by Brauchitsch and the conservative generals, he naturally thought of a way to deal with it: "Send a telegram to Marshal Brauchitsch to persuade him to support the Führer's claim to be emperor!"

You see, everyone only expressed their support for the Führer's position as emperor, but I, Rundstedt, not only took a stand, but also pulled down my face and begged the people around me to support the Führer -- this is called thoughtful, right? Thinking of this, Rundstedt returned his gaze to the map of Moscow's urban districts, and wondered whether he should launch an offensive after all, and take down Red Square at all costs.

"Tomorrow morning, storm the building of the Soviet Foreign Ministry, and after taking it, give the Yuan a telegram reporting the results of the battle!" After Lundstedt finished speaking, he waved his hand, signaling his henchmen that they could withdraw and prepare.
