Iron Germany

"Your Majesty, the General Staff plans to put the 9th Army, the 10th Army, the 11th Army and the 12th Army into the plan to wipe out the guerrillas in the east. The four legions, with more than 800,000 people, should be enough to wipe out those guerrillas. However, according to the information we have, many guerrillas are backed by the Russian cloth party. Even many guerrillas are directly under their orders." Von Falkenhein said the Marshal.

"Since this is the case, it is even more impossible to keep them. Those guerrillas must be wiped out. Only in this way can we boldly develop the eastern part. In the process of governing the eastern territory, we must use division and disintegration The method. That is to attract some people and attack some people! Those who are willing to be loyal to the empire and work for the empire will be treated favorably by the empire. Those who oppose the empire will definitely be eliminated by the empire. Or, let them go to farms and mines Do coolies!" Qin Tian said.

In those territories in the eastern part of the Empire, there are many territories that are unclaimed. The German government directly took over those territories. State-owned farms and mines were established. The labor force needed is mainly prisoners of war. The next step is to prepare to wipe out the entire east, throwing all those who oppose the empire to farms and mines to do coolies. In this case, it can be regarded as the best use of everything.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Von Falkenhain nodded.

"How about the transportation network in the eastern territory that I asked the cabinet to plan?" Qin Tian asked.

The territories ceded by Russia to Germany have extremely poor transportation facilities. Otherwise, after the war broke out, the Russian army would not have worked so hard to mobilize to the front line. Poor traffic has posed a great obstacle to the development plan of the empire. As the saying goes, to get rich, build roads first. Although Germany does not necessarily want those local people to become rich. However, the empire desperately needs all kinds of resources here. Only when the construction of transportation facilities is improved can these resources be transported to the mainland of Germany.

What's more, if the empire wants to go to war with Russia in the future, this place will become the front line. Without convenient transportation, the empire's progress in mobilizing troops and transporting combat supplies would be greatly affected. In that case, it will be very detrimental to the empire's war against Russia.

In another time and space, Napoleon's expedition to Russia failed, and Hitler's Barbarossa plan eventually failed. The main reason is that Russia is too vast. Trading space for time has become the most commonly used tactic by the Russians. Germany now occupies a large area of ​​territory that originally belonged to Russia, which undoubtedly shortened its own logistics supply line by a large amount. In this case, the future war against Russia will undoubtedly be more beneficial.

"Your Majesty, the Ministry of Communications has initially completed the planning." The Minister of Transport replied.

Afterwards, he immediately sent the plan to Qin Tian.

The planning book is mainly divided into two parts, the first part is the railway, and the second part is the road. Germany's railway network is very dense, and the total mileage of railway operations is among the highest in the world. This is why in this war, the German army can be quickly mobilized to the front line. Therefore, Germany also attaches great importance to the construction of railways in those territories in the east.

In the planning of the Ministry of Communications, three railways will be mainly built. One is to start from Königsberg in East Prussia and enter the three Baltic countries. The main and branch lines of the railway will connect the capitals and eastern cities of the three Baltic states. In this case, launching an attack from Narva, Estonia is only about 100 kilometers away from St. Petersburg. It was precisely because the three Baltic countries already belonged to Germany that the Russian cloth party felt a huge threat, which made them move their capital from St. Petersburg to Moscow.

The second railway, from Berlin to Warsaw, and then to Minsk, stretches all the way to the new frontier in the east. It is far from Moscow, although it is as high as six or seven hundred kilometers. But compared to attacking Moscow from Poland, it has been shortened by hundreds of kilometers.

The third railway was built from Warsaw and Minsk to Kyiv, and then from Kyiv to eastern Ukraine. This railway, on the one hand, ensured Germany's control over Ukraine. Once war breaks out, Germany can start from Ukraine and attack the Don River Basin and Caucasus in southern Russia. Especially the Baku oil field is the place Qin Tian covets. Although, Germany already has many oil-producing areas. After defeating the United Kingdom, even the Middle East was able to win. But no one would think that they have more oil resources. Especially after taking down the Baku oil field, Russia will have no oil producing areas. This will be a great weakening of Russia's military power. Airplanes, tanks and automobiles are nothing more than scrap metal if there is not enough oil.

It can be said that if these three railways are completed, this will allow the empire to greatly strengthen its control over the new territory. At the same time, if the empire wants to fight against Russia in the future, it can also use these railways to transport combat supplies. Logistical pressure will be greatly reduced.

Compared with railway planning, road planning is more dense. There are as many as a dozen roads from the mainland of the Empire and East Prussia to the three Baltic countries, Berlin, Belarus and Ukraine. Moreover, these roads are completely different from the previous Russian dirt roads. These roads are all high-grade roads built with cement. Make sure that the trucks of the empire can pass on these roads quickly. Whether it is transporting troops or transporting combat materials, it can be faster and more convenient.

Once the war between the Empire and Russia breaks out, at least millions of troops will be used. With such a huge force, logistical supplies alone are very difficult. It is obvious that railway transportation alone cannot meet the needs of frontline troops. In this case, road transport is a good supplement.

"Very well, how long will it take to build these railways and roads?" Qin Tian asked.

"Your Majesty, according to the plan, it will take at least ten years to complete the repair." The Minister of Transport replied.

"Ten years? No, ten years is too long!" Qin Tian said.

"Your Majesty, there is no way around it. If it can be repaired within ten years, it will be God's blessing." Prime Minister Bilo said.

Qin Tian was taken aback for a moment, and then he remembered that the technology at this time was not as good as that of later generations. The difficulty of building so many railways and roads can be imagined. To be able to complete these railways and roads within ten years is already doing our best. The war between Germany and Russia, which broke out ten years later, is more appropriate.
