The war was never fought alone, and while the Ming army counterattacked on the southern front, the Prussian army on the northern front also began offensive operations.

The offensive of the Prussian army was very characteristic, they advanced on all fronts on a front of more than 400 kilometers.

And their advance was very steady, advancing only two or three kilometers a day.

Behind the attacking troops, there was a dense echelon defensive formation of large depth.

The various units attacked in turn, and basically every day they cut down a position and did not leave.

Dig trenches and build bunkers.

I'm going to stay for a long time!

The Russian army, defending the northern front, has nothing to do with such an offensive.

The tank units of the Ming army, which were ready to counterattack at any time on the second front, were also helpless.

Because the Prussian attack was very short, they began to dig holes after staying.

The anti-tank trenches were meticulously dug, and the next day, after the officers of the Ming tank unit observed them, they immediately dispelled the idea of attacking.

With these tanks in hand, attacking such a position, the family will be exhausted after two battles.

So, a strange scene appeared.

The Russian army retreated two or three kilometers a day, and the Prussian army advanced two or three kilometers a day.

The vast land of northern Russia has been dug like a spider's web.

So much so that later both sides formed a tacit understanding, and only the Russian army packed and retreated at dawn.

The Prussian officers, seeing the retreat of the Russian troops, began to firing a few symbolic shots.

The troops then marched into the positions of the Russians!

The Russian army seemed to be very cooperative, they didn't even in the foxholes.

Li Xiao pulled a straight line from his existing position in Smolensk to Moscow.

Three hundred and twelve kilometers, at the current rate of attack, in three months millions of Prussian troops would be under Moscow.

Moreover, this advancement is still incomprehensible.

The Russian and Ming armies on the northern front were completely inferior in numbers, and there were not many armored units to use.

Even if the Air Force was exhausted, it would not be possible to repel an attack of this magnitude.

It can only play a certain role in harassment!

And......! According to the air force's reconnaissance, the Prussian army was very dense in depth.

Almost every battalion was followed by a division, and the Prussian army could organize a counterattack of tens of thousands almost immediately if a few hundred men in the vanguard battalion were hit.

The Ming army may be able to capture such a position and hold it, but the Russian army will definitely not be able to do it.

Retreat is a helpless preservation of strength.

On the central front, Kursk can barely be held.

However, as time went on, the situation became more and more unfavorable for the Ming army and the Russian army.

This tactic of competition and attrition really hit the sore spot of the Ming army.

If this fight continues, the strength of the Russian army and the Ming army on the central front will gradually dry up.

The only advantage now was on the southern front, where the Ming army threw all its strategic maneuver forces.

The 1st Army of the Expeditionary Force, as well as the 1st Cavalry Division.

Although the two forces together only have more than 300,000 people, they are the most elite armored troops of the Ming Dynasty.

The saber was unsheathed and was indeed unstoppable, and in just one day it penetrated deeply into the enemy's position for sixty kilometers.

And firmly occupied the bridge over the Don River, so that the enemy's troops on the east bank of the Don River became a turtle in the urn.

Now, all eyes are on the southern front.

If the battle on the southern front went well, the Ming army not only relieved the threat on the southern front.

What is even more important is that the strategic reserves of the Ming army were liberated again.

Whose head will be slashed next time the butcher's knife ......!

Hey!

Cut who knows.

Now the armored troops of the Ming army are an incomparably sharp sword, and wherever it is wielded, there will be a sea of blood.

"Dad!" Li Lin suddenly ran in with a panicked expression.

"What's the matter, panic." Li Xiao didn't look at the map with a cigar in his hand as usual.

Instead, he held a plate of venison and read the map while eating.

This is the fruit of Li Xiao's hunting that day, a very large reindeer.

It's just a pity that the meat in spring is a bit firewood, and it is not as delicious as autumn.

Venison is a coarse fiber, which is a bit like beef.

The chef is also a wonderful person, so he makes it according to the method of sauced beef, not to mention, the taste is really good!

"It's raining in Belgorod!" Li Lin said nervously.

"What?" Li Xiao is like a big stick.

Spring is the season when the Russian land is soft and soft.

Now it's raining again, my God!

Haven't the banks of the Don River become big mud ponds?

What's even worse is that ......, I don't know if there will be a spring flood in the Don River.

Once the water is blown, all the elites of Daming will be soaked in the water.

A tank is not a ship!

Li Xiao slowly put down the plate in his hand, still chewing the sauce venison in his mouth.

The venison in his mouth was chewed into chewing gum, and Li Xiao swallowed it slowly.

"Command!

The First Army of the Expeditionary Force immediately retracted its defenses and retreated to the east bank of the Don River.

Zu Kuanbu immediately went north and was placed under the command of the 1st Cavalry Division.

Continue in Belgorod, squatting against the French troops returning from the northern front. ”

"Dad!

The number of French troops returning will be 300,000!

The 1st Cavalry Division, even with Zukuan's 1st Tank Division, is only more than 80,000 people.

That's four times as many people! ”

"No matter, it has to be fought like this.

Even if it can't be wiped out, it will have to be beaten to Napoleon's cry of pain.

Otherwise, the southern line will not stop.

After eating the French First Army, the 1st Cavalry Division immediately moved north and attacked the Kursk flank.

It is imperative to encircle and annihilate the main forces of Israel in Kursk and solve the problem of the central front. ”

Li Xiao gritted his teeth.

The last time the Austro-Hungarian army of 450,000 troops was killed, the central front was really stable for two months.

Who would have thought, Austria-Hungary was honest.

The Israelis actually rushed forward, and the pressure on the central front was even greater than when they were facing Austria-Hungary before.

Today, the whole of Kursk has fallen to almost the end.

What the Ming army is holding on to is Kursky, the capital of Kursk.

A breakthrough in the center was necessary in order for the center to threaten the French and Prussian armies on the flanks.

Let them not dare to continue to advance, or at least slow down their attack.

"But the road is ......!"

"The road is not good for us, and even worse for the coalition forces.

At least, we still have tractors, but also airships and airplanes.

What do they have, Sharma? Or the two legs of a soldier? ”

Li Xiao firmly issued the order!

"No!" Li Lin immediately saluted and ran out to send a telegram.

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

Leclerc took off from Kiev and headed straight for Kharkiv in an airship.

This road is occupied by the French army, although occasionally Ming planes come to reconnoiter around, but in this case, they can only get out.

"General, it's time to Kursk, are we landing." The staff officer whispered to Leclerc, who had closed his eyes and recuperated.

Now is a rare time to rest, whether there will be a chance to sleep in the next few days, that is really two words.

"No, keep flying. Fly all the way to Podgorensky! Leclerc didn't even open his eyes.

"General, it's the front line. There are Ming army planes infested! The staff officer turned white with fright.

For the airship, the Ming army plane is tantamount to death.

As long as he is targeted by the Ming army's plane, he can't run.

Those Ming army planes, only need to use the machine guns on the planes to break the airship airbags.

The airship will fall to the ground like a lead block, and if it falls for two or three thousand meters, even if it is copper skin and iron bones, it will be smashed into a meat patty.

"This is one hundred and fifty kilometers to the command of Ebbock, and you expect us to ride over?

Even if you ride a horse, how long does it take to get there? What should we do if we are unfamiliar with life and get lost? ”

Leclerc opened his eyes and crackled and reprimanded the staff officer.

The little staff officer's face turned red, and he went to order the pilot to move on.

Leclerc glanced out the window, and low dark clouds spread across the sky.

The sky was a little dark, and the airship pod began to shake violently.

You can tell that the wind must be strong outside.

A fork of lightning suddenly flashed through the sky, and although the thunder had not yet been heard, Leclerc was already filling the muffled thunder in his head.

"Great!" Leclerc was so excited that he stood up, and soon the shaking pod forced him to sit down.

"General, fasten your seatbelts, it's windy outside." The staff officer staggered from side to side.

"It's raining!

It's raining!

Haha, it's raining! "Leclerc was happy to be like a psychopath.

Spring rain is as expensive as oil, and this sentence is too apt for Leclerc now.

The staff officer looked at his boss and was very worried about the general's mental state.

"It's raining!

The ground will become a mud pond, and our army will not be able to move, and the Ming army will not be able to move.

The tide of battle would be stalemate, and it would be great if there was a spring flood on the Don.

The pilots were ordered to speed up and rush to the command post of Ebbock as soon as possible. ”

Leclerc's face flushed with excitement and danced like a child who had eaten honey.

The staff officer could only help him fasten his seat belt and then go to the cockpit and tell the pilot about the crazy decision of the general.

Just as the staff officer was leaving, Leclerc saw raindrops crashing against the pod glass.

Rain marks slid down the glass portholes of the pod.

Leclerc was even more excited, and he only hoped that the rain would fall as hard as possible, and that he would be as old as possible.

The muddy banks of the Don River will seriously delay the offensive rhythm of the Ming army.

Although the French army will be more unbearable, the French army has been staying in the position.

They are not ready to go anywhere!

The airship traveled through the rain, and although it swayed like a flat boat in the wind and rain, it still moved quickly through the wind and rain.

I don't know how long I walked through, but an orange bright spot flashed on the ground.

Soon, another bright spot exploded on the ground.

The people on the airship have a lot of experience in warfare, and this is shelling.

The airship has arrived in the skies over the war zone!

The pilots were experienced in flying and did not get lost in the dark night of a thunderstorm.

After telegraphing to the command post of Ebok, an air-to-air communication signal lit up on the ground.

It's dangerous, but there's nothing you can do.

The airship landed quickly, and no one knew if there would be Ming fighters nearby.

Although, the fighters of the Ming army generally do not go out in bad weather and at night.

But this is a war zone, who can say for sure.

The airship landed directly at the command post of Ebbock, which made Leclerc run a lot less wrongly.

It also made the horses in the pod useless.

It was raining very heavily outside the pod and Leclerc walked out in a raincoat.

The moment the hatch opened, the wind swept raindrops across the surface, suffocating Leclerc.

In the wind, Leclerc saw Lieutenant General Albock waiting in the pouring rain.

He hurried down the gangway!

"General Abok, why are you here in person, hurry up and go to the carriage, don't freeze."

Albock is in his sixties this year, twenty years older than the up-and-coming general Leclerc.

In the wind and rain, Leclerc could see the gray hair peeking out from the side of his raincoat.

"I also want to thank you Leclerc, let's go, go inside the carriage and say, it's too cold in here."

Elbock walked over and kissed Leclerc on the cheek, then patted Leclerc's arm in a gesture of affection.

It was indeed cold outside, and the two men quickly got into the carriage.

"Thank you for speaking in front of His Majesty the Emperor, otherwise I might have been the executioner waiting for now."

As soon as he sat down, the carriage moved.

"How do you know?" Leclerc was amazed at how well-informed Abbock was.

"Huh! Leclerc, I'm in my sixties and have been in the military for more than forty years.

It's not for nothing!

Since I'm your deputy now, you can say it, and whatever you decide, I'll give it my full support. ”

Leclerc nodded, looking like his vision had come true.

If you save Abok, you will inevitably win the absolute support of the old guy. This is very important for Leclerc, who is not familiar with the place!

"The troops on the east bank of the Don need to be assembled as soon as possible to launch an attack on the Don bridge.

This is their only way to live, and the troops on the west bank of the Don River will also attack the Don River bridge.

The key to the battlefield now is the Don River bridge. ”

"In the afternoon, I ordered the troops on the west bank to attack the bridge over the Don River, but there was no way that the Ming army was too heavy in firepower.

And those damn Ming troops, even the damn artillery is protected by armor.

Before you landed, it was shelled.

Just listen to the sound, it is a 155-mm heavy gun.

Their heavy artillery is the same as a tank, and can accompany the tank to provide precision strikes. ”

"Damn it!" Hearing Abbot say this, Leclerc scolded.

Damn the Ming Army, it's fucking evolved again.

In the past, their artillery had to be towed by large tractors or cars.

Now it's okay, it's tracked directly like a tank.

"Then simply concentrate our artillery and blow up the Don bridge." Leclerc went on his second thought.

The idea had already been thought out on his way here!

"What?" Elbock's eyes widened as if he were looking at a devil.

"Leclerc, as much as His Majesty the Emperor trusts you, I have to warn you. On the east bank of the Don River, we have eight divisions!

If the bridge is blown up, they will be in a desperate situation.

His Majesty the Emperor knows, and you will die. ”
