Iron Germany

Biya is Stoke, the headquarters of the Russian 2nd Guards Army. The commander, Admiral Krapovich, is furious.

"Damn! Bastard! Jilinski, how shameless is he? He actually wants to blame me for the defeat. It's so shameless!" Admiral Krapovich cursed.

Admiral Krapovich is also a heavyweight in the Russian Army. In the Guards system, he is second only to Marshal Mirolav. Although Admiral Ivan Jilinsky's qualifications are a little higher than his, he must not be framed in this way.

"General, what should we do now? Should we continue to maintain the current marching speed?" A lieutenant general asked.

Admiral Krapovich kept a dark face and said nothing. He and Admiral Letski slowed down their march to Warsaw, although they felt the threat from the Germans. But at the same time, there are also some dissatisfaction with Admiral Ivan Jilinski. They believed that since Admiral Ivan Jilinsky suffered a disastrous defeat in East Prussia, he should step down from his current position. In this case, they will not have the opportunity to serve as the commander of the front army.

In the Russian Army, if you want to be promoted to marshal, it is undoubtedly the best way to get promoted from the position of commander of the front army.

Therefore, Admiral Krapovic and Admiral Letzski deliberately slowed down, wanting to wait until Warsaw fell before launching an offensive to retake Warsaw. In this case, they have an explanation to Tsar Nicholas II, and they can even be rewarded. At the same time, he can get rid of Admiral Ivan Jilinsky, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

But I didn't expect that Admiral Ivan Jilinsky would be such a shameless person that he would report to Nicholas II. Once the noise reached the ears of Nicholas II, it would be impossible to contain the fire with paper. At that time, if Nicholas II blamed it, they would all be unable to eat and walk around.

"General, General Jilinski will not really report to His Majesty the Tsar, will he?" Some generals were very worried. Everyone knows that Nicholas II was very upset because of the previous fiasco. If something like this happens again, it will definitely anger Nicholas II. Such consequences are quite serious.

"Send a telegram to General Letsky, he must have received a warning from Jilinski. Ask him what he is going to do!" General Krapovich ordered.

"Yes, General." The adjutant immediately went to send a telegram.

Lublin, General Letsky, commander of the Russian Ninth Army, also received a warning from General Jilinsky. This also made Admiral Letzky furious.

However, facing Jilinski's warning, he, like Admiral Krapovich, had no way to counter it.

Ever since, Admiral Letzski and Admiral Krapovich had to lead the troops to speed up and rush to Warsaw. And this happened to fall into the trap of the German army. The troops of the 8th Army of the German Army have already been prepared, waiting for these reinforcements from the Russian Army.

The commander of the Russian 9th Army, General Letsky, and the commander of the 2nd Guards Army, General Krapovich, did not relax their vigilance against the German army. They are well aware of the power of the German army. The German army did not attack Warsaw, which was empty of troops, and it was obvious that they were eyeing these two support troops.

Chekhanov, the headquarters of the German 8th Army. The information obtained by the reconnaissance planes and intelligence personnel is all summarized here, which allows the commanders of the 8th Army to be well aware of the movements of the Russian army.

"Your Highness, the 9th Army of the Russian Army and the 2nd Guards Army have both accelerated their marching speed. It seems that we are pretending to attack Warsaw, which scared Ivan Jilinsky enough. He had to force Letsky and Krapovich to speed up." Admiral Hindenburg smiled.

In his eyes, the two armies of the Russian army are just fat meat sent to their mouths! As long as the 8th Army launches an attack, they will definitely be able to eat them.

"Well, it seems that Ivan Jilinski was frightened by us. He was afraid that we would really attack Warsaw, so he ordered the troops back to help him impatiently." Qin Tian nodded.

In many cases, internal strife within the enemy is far easier to succeed than their own actions.

"Your Highness, after the Russian army speeds up, the 9th Russian Army and the 2nd Guards Army will arrive in Warsaw within four to five days. When will we attack, and which Russian army will we attack?" Ludendorff said. The major general asked for instructions.

"What about the staff's opinion?" Qin Tian asked.

On these tactical issues, Qin Tian never made decisions without authorization, and he would listen more to the opinions of those professionals. After all, they are the professionals, and there will be less chance of problems. Unlike him, he just became a monk halfway and understood some theoretical things. At most, he uses his foresight skills to put forward constructive suggestions in some general directions.

"Your Highness, judging from the distance, the 9th Army of the Russian Army will arrive in Warsaw about a day before the 2nd Guards Army. However, the 2nd Guards Army is closer to our main force. Therefore, the opinion of the staff is two Two days later, we will attack the 2nd Guards Army. According to the marching speed of the Russian Army, the 2nd Guards Army will arrive in Ostrow in two days. The 8th Armored Division and the 11th Army can attack the Russian Guards there. The 2nd Army launched an attack. With the strength of the 8th Armored Division, it would not be a big problem to defeat the 2nd Russian Guards Front Army. The 17th Army was responsible for outflanking the rear of the 2nd Russian Guards Army and expanding the As a result of the battle, it is best to be able to eliminate all of the Russian 2nd Guards Army. As for the 20th Army, it will be responsible for guarding Warsaw and the Russian 9th Army. If the Russian 9th Army wants to reinforce the 2nd Guards Army , the 20th Army is responsible for intercepting them." Brigadier General Hoffman explained the battle plan formulated by the staff.

Qin Tian had no objection to this plan. The 8th Armored Division has now become the ace unit of the 8th Army. It is precisely because of the strong combat effectiveness of the 8th Armored Division that the German 8th Army dared to attack the superior Russian army with a small number of troops.

"The 2nd Russian Guards Army is their elite unit. Can our two armies and one armored division eat them?" Qin Tian asked.

"Your Highness, it may be difficult. But it won't be too difficult!" Major General Ludendorff said firmly.
