Germanic Empire, Bo Lin, General Staff.
August arrived with The Minister of War, Admiral Von Falkenheim, and the Chief of the General Staff, Admiral Moltke Jr., and a large number of Army generals were already waiting here.
After the last blow and weakening of the Junkers Officer Corps, Auguste’s control of the Army had been further improved, and he had fully established his supreme leadership position in the Army.
The generals were in awe of August.
“My generals, war is about to break out. Our enemies, whether Gaul or old Maozi, or the sun never sets, have mobilized. Although, the progress of mobilization is not fast. But that’s because war hasn’t really broken out yet. Once our ally Austro-Hungarian Empire launched an attack on the Kingdom of Selvia. Then they will inevitably declare war on austria-Hungary at the first time. And the Empire, of course, can only advance and retreat with the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
Therefore, this war is no longer inevitable. In fact, we didn’t think about avoiding it either. We have been preparing for so many years, is not it so that we can defeat our enemies in one fell swoop in this battle and make the Germanic Empire more glorious?
As soldiers of the Empire, our duty is to use the sword in our hands to fight for a wider living space for the entire Germanic nation! ”
In front of these generals, August made a passionate speech that aroused the morale of everyone.
Every general can see their fanaticism in his eyes, and everyone has actually been looking forward to this war for a long time. Everyone hoped that the Germanic Empire would be able to win the next war, so that they could obtain great merits and thus further promotion.
The armies of the Germanic Empire were hierarchical. Without military merit, it is very difficult to get promoted.
This is why the generals were so eager for war. Every big war will make countless people get promoted.
“Your Majesty, we are all ready. Even if our enemies are very powerful, this time we will definitely be able to win! Admiral Moltke Jr. had a look of confidence on his face.
“The Germanic Empire will triumph!” God bless the Germanic Empire! ”
Everyone’s morale is obviously very good, which also makes August very satisfied.
“Now, let’s start introducing the combat deployment!” August said.
As early as the previous chief of the General Staff, General Schlieffen, was made chief of the General Staff, a battle plan for the Western Front had already been drawn up.
This plan is called the Schlieffen Plan.
Its core tactic was to use the convenient railway transportation of the Germanic Empire to quickly mobilize troops, and to gather the main forces at the beginning of the war to launch an attack on the western front, so that it could seriously damage the Gaul state at the beginning of the war, force the Gaul state to withdraw from the war, and enable the Germanic Empire to win a decisive victory on the western front.
After that, the troops were mobilized to the eastern front by rail, and the Austro-Hungarian Empire was fully opposed to the Tsarist Empire and defeated the Tsarist Empire in one fell swoop.
As long as the Gaul Andrea empire and the Russian Empire were defeated, even if the Sun Never Set Empire was strong, it could only retreat to the mainland. The Germanic Empire would become the hegemon of the entire European continent.
However, the actual situation now is very different from that of General Schlieffen.
The biggest difference was that the Germanic Empire annexed the Dutch Kingdom. This made it easier for the Germanic Empire to launch its next offensive.
Not only from the eastern part of the Kingdom of Belgium, but also from the north of the Kingdom of Belgium, it was also possible to mobilize the main forces to attack from the north of the Kingdom of Belgium. This made the defense system built by the Pylisids on the eastern border, with the fortress of Liège as the core, useless.
As long as the Germanic Army broke through from the north, it could penetrate the kingdom of Belgium to the south and invade the northern part of Gaul in one go.
“Your Majesty, we have adjusted the Schlieffen Plan in light of the present realities and the strength of the Imperial Army. According to the Empire’s plan, at the outbreak of war, the Imperial Army would have 100 infantry divisions, 10 cavalry brigades and 10 heavy artillery brigades, as well as 5 armored divisions. These units will be formed into ten armies to be used in this war. Each army group consisted of ten infantry divisions, a cavalry brigade and a heavy artillery brigade.
The 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 9th and 10th Armies were equipped with an armored division.
The deployment and combat tasks of each army group were the 1st, 2nd and 3rd armies deployed in the Dutch Kingdom, respectively, and were responsible for launching an attack south from the Dutch Kingdom. The 4th, 5th, and 6th Armies were deployed in the eastern part of the Kingdom of Belgium and attacked the Kingdom from the Empire itself. The 7th Army served as a reserve, defending the Empire’s border with Gaul. The 8th Army, as the general reserve, was ready to reinforce the eastern and western fronts. The 9th Army and the 10th Army were deployed in East Prussia and the eastern border of the Empire to defend the Russian Empire.
Once the war broke out, the 1st, 2nd and 3rd Armies of the Imperial Army attacked south from the Kingdom of Holland, and the 4th, 5th and 6th Armies attacked westward from the Empire mainland, striving to annihilate the army of the Kingdom of Belgium in the shortest possible time, destroy the Kingdom of Belgium, and advance the battle line to the northern part of the Kingdom of Gaul! ”
Admiral Moltke Jr. introduced himself to everyone.
August nodded, agreeing with the battle plan this time.
The Germanic Imperial Army was to gather the main forces into the battlefield of the Kingdom of Belgium, and first solve this small country with a small land area and a small population, but its industrial strength was very strong.
After that, he attacked the gaul state southward, pushing the war into the territory of the gaul state.
“According to the information we have so far, the Kingdom of Belgium has begun a national mobilization, although the entire Kingdom of Belgium has only a population of more than seven million. However, they have planned to mobilize half a million troops on the northern and eastern borders to guard against our attack. In addition, the Gallic Army also gathered a large number of troops in the border area, ready to enter the territory of the Kingdom of Belgium. Even the expeditionary forces of the Empire that never sets on the sun are very likely to enter the territory of the Kingdom of Billys. At that time, we will probably face millions or even more of the armies of the Allied powers.
I hope that the Imperial Army, in this battle, will not have to be blindly fast, and can take this opportunity to seriously damage the main forces of the Gaul and the Sun-Setting People in the territory of the Kingdom of Belgium and annihilate them here. In this way, the northern part of Gaul can easily fall into our hands like ripe peaches. ”
August offered his opinion.
