Chapter 338 Barbarossa 2

Therefore, at the same time as launching an attack on the alliance, the air marshal mobilized nearly 1,000 transport planes to bomb the depth of the alliance, and in just one wave, thousands of tons of napalm were dropped in the hinterland of the alliance east of Moscow.

As a matter of fact, as early as April, the Air Marshal set up a temporary department in his headquarters to study the use of transport planes carrying napalm to bomb the depth of the alliance, so that on the one hand, it could weaken the alliance's strength, and on the other hand, it could contain the alliance's air force.

But the development of the war was beyond the expectations of the air marshal, and in just a few days, they basically emptied the coalition air force, and at present, the only remaining air defense forces of the alliance are concentrated in a few major cities, in this case, Hans's transport aircraft group can simply pass through the hinterland of the alliance at will, and there is no need for fighter escorts at all.

What neither the Air Marshal nor the Hans Chancellery expected was that this force alone almost collapsed on the side of the Alliance, and in just one week, the communication line from the European region of the Alliance to the Siberian region was blocked by raging fires, and even all kinds of industrial equipment and materials that the Union was preparing to transport to the west were also blocked on the road, no way, the east of Moscow all the way to the Ural Mountains became a sea of fire, not to mention transportation, even the original factories, farms, and small towns in this region were damaged, forcing the alliance to organize forces to fight the fire, so that the already small capital in the hands of the iron comrades is even more stretched.

More importantly, the military movement of the alliance has also been blocked, and the troops are okay to say, after all, the alliance can catch up with citizens and students to the battlefield, but the problem is that the weapons, equipment and materials that were hoarded east of Moscow, especially in the Ural mountains, before the war cannot be transported, and there are not enough weapons and ammunition, let alone organizing troops to counterattack, even if they hold on, they can't do it.

As soon as the war began, the western cities, naval and air bases, and communications facilities of the alliance were seriously damaged by the air raids of the Hans Air Force, and the command organs of the border military districts were basically paralyzed. The Hans armored group advanced 60-80 km on the first day of the war.

Comrade Iron and Steel and the Allied Defense Committee, in the face of the uncertainty of the battle situation, issued an unrealistic order that night, demanding that the border military districts carry out a fierce counterattack to destroy the invading enemy, and this blind command further aggravated the situation at the front.

Historically, in the first three days of the battle, the Hans destroyed more than 3,000 coalition planes alone, but now, with the help of information about the unknown provenance of the air marshal. On the first day alone, the Hans Air Force destroyed and captured more than 5,000 aircraft of all kinds in the Allied Air Force, and counting the next two days, the Hans Air Force destroyed and captured more than 7,000 planes of the Allied Air Force, and in June 1941, all the planes of the Allied Air Force in the east were also launched, considering that many of these planes could not take off due to various malfunctions, it can be said that the air force of the Allied Air Force in the border area has been completely wiped out.

In the first week of the war, the Hans Panzer Group fought with great ease, with the advantages of a sudden attack, superiority in weapons and equipment, the fact that the army had already been mobilized and concentrated, and had accumulated rich experience in fighting in Western Europe, with Army Group Center advancing to Minsk, Army Group South advancing to the outskirts of Kiev, and Army Group North having crossed the Vena River.

Hans's offensive also ignited the independence movement of many of the Allied occupying powers, and on June 22, 1941, anti-Confederate riots broke out in the eastern part of the Greater Pobo and the Baltic region, and several of the republics issued declarations of independence the next day. More than one former government soldier joined the mutiny. As the Hans army progressed, so did the rebellion, which was widespread in the Caucasus, Central Asia, and even Siberia.

In the past, the Hans could only take care of their own eyes and instigate riots in those European republics, no matter how far away, not to mention the whip commander, it was almost the same, but now it is different, the intelligence obtained by the air marshal is very detailed, there are detailed records of the resistance forces and potential resistance forces in various regions, and even the personality characteristics and needs of those people are analyzed, as long as the Hans intelligence department finds the right person, the next step is to be responsible for providing rubles, anyway, the ruble is really not lacking in Hans, Don't you see that they don't even bother to print military tickets now? All front-line soldiers were issued directly in rubles.

Although Comrade Iron and Steel took urgent measures to change the forward military district into a front army and set up a high command, because a large number of preparations could not be prepared before the outbreak of the war, they suffered a serious defeat at the beginning of the war, and because the Soviet army had outdated equipment, the quality of the command personnel was poor, and the misjudgment of the direction of the enemy's main attack, 60 divisions were completely annihilated in the early stage of the war, and nearly 100 divisions lost more than half of their weapons More than 500,000 elite troops were captured by the Hans.

On July 12, through fierce fighting, the Hanns captured Smolensk, the gateway to the capital of the Union, Moscow, surrounded more than a dozen elite divisions of the Union, cut off the Minsk-Moscow road, the most important communication artery in the west of the Union, and set up the headquarters of the Hans Army Group Center here. By this time, the Hanns were only 380 kilometers away from Moscow.

Historically, the Hans would transfer part of the main forces of Army Group Center attacking Moscow to attack Kiev in the south in order to occupy Ermao, the granary of the alliance. On June 30, Army Group Center launched an attack on Kyiv when it did not attack Smolensk, and the two sides fought until July 16, when the Hans Air Force dropped tens of thousands of tons of napalm in Kiev, and the Southwestern Front of the Union surrendered.

Although the Battle of Kyiv only encircled and annihilated 300,000 coalition troops this time, less than half of the history, in fact, most of the troops and equipment that failed to assemble in time to Kyiv were wiped out piecemeal by the Hans Air Force during this time.

On July 25, 1841, Hans's Army Group Center began to advance towards Moscow after a short replenishment, and on the same day, Hans's Chancellery issued a statement to the Coalition to surrender, stating that as long as the Allied government surrendered, he would accept the Union as a member of the Axis according to the model of the F-country, and even proudly expressed that he would give the greatest goodwill to Comrade Steel.

For Hans's so-called olive branch, Comrade Iron naturally refused without hesitation, until now he has not reached the point of exhaustion, he still has capital, but now almost all of his capital is pressed in the Far East and cannot move, for the alliance, it is finally time to have to choose.
