A roar, like a thunder,

Like the sea is roaring, like the sword is roaring;

Zum?,?zum?,?zum???

Who goes to Rhine, who goes to Rhine,""

Protect her from intrusion?

Dear motherland, you can rest assured,

Fest???????!??

We are unwaveringly watching the Rhine!

Close the window to isolate the boy chorus from the outside. Even if the energetic "Watch Over Rhine" is sung by the children, it still shows the style of the barracks, giving people the illusion of being in the boy scout barracks. If this song hadn't been used by a black humorous comedy "Steel Sky" by a black Nazi Hemi Emperor to fly, it should be more serious at this moment.

In addition, the person who wrote the song does not understand humor, which adds a sense of joy to the song.

"The children sing very well."

Brenhill smiled bitterly, and similar rehearsals are happening everywhere these days. Due to the limited space, the large square in front of the council meeting was targeted by various groups. On this side, I played "Erica", on the other side I played "A Song of the Armored Soldiers", on the other side I sang "The Banner Leads Us Forward", and on the other side the harmony "Watching the Rhine"... The entire Yalfheim almost became a musical The city is full of martial arts and queue training, and even cats, dogs and cats are almost following the beat.

After all, it is a once-in-a-century celebration, coupled with economic prosperity and a continuous improvement in living standards. Everyone wants to have a good celebration. Plus the temptation to take a vacation later. The atmosphere is unprecedentedly warm.

"Fortunately, the band conductors are very punctual after get off work, so far I haven't received any complaints about nuisance."

Sitting back at the desk, Li Lin said easily.

"The key to this celebration is the parade and ship-watching. What about the troops?"

"My consul. The troops participating in the review have been screened. All the personnel are all elites of the various troops, all are handsome and handsome guys, and their equipment has been strictly inspected. Military dresses, medals, and medals have also been distributed. "

Thor looked excited. For soldiers in peacetime, only military parade and confrontation exercises can arouse their interest, not to mention once in a century. In addition, this was the last military parade before the official start of the war. Just thinking of going to the battlefield afterwards, the pure soldiers like Thor were already full of blood.

"How about the air-visited unit and the armored unit? They are the highlight."

"The air formation is undergoing a final run-in drill. There is basically no problem. The training of the armored forces is basically completed. All the vehicles reviewed have been checked. The tracks and tires are new. Some parts have been replaced with new parts. The vehicles are in good condition. . But... Are you sure you don’t need those parade components?"

"No, those shiny things will be left to the victory parade. Let's talk about it. At that time, it will not attract the eyes of the citizens of Alfheim, but the eyes of the world."

"As I said."

Freya nodded, judging from her expression, she was still a little unhappy. It seemed that she really liked the chariots that were as beautiful as jewelry boxes.

The national nature of elves has always been similar to obsessive-compulsive disorder, and the style of behavior often has its extreme side. It's nice to say that everything likes to be the ultimate. It's their nature to say something awkward, to think about and to complicate simple things. The specific performance of this character in terms of technology is like "fantastic skills". For example, that pile of structures is seriously overweight, the precision is far more complicated than the Swiss watch, the faults are endless, and the production is heavy. And a combination kit for celebration ceremonies.

After receiving the request from the superiors to "conform to the tank painting for celebration review", the General Equipment Department did not say anything to go to the Academy of Fine Arts to pull the teachers and students, and ask them to provide assistance. Under the concerted efforts, various proposals were put forward, and after the shots that were too avant-garde, such as "painting the chariot pink, with the singing performance", were finally finalized, the neoclassical style of the proposal was the kind of fate. Gold-plated and silver-plated plus a variety of cumbersome decorative vulgar style.

When the reconstructed tiger-style car appeared in front of the officers of the General Staff, the chariot blinded the kryptonian dogs of the officers on the spot, and by the way, their jaws were startled.

It is conceivable that the officers of the General Staff are like children who have received a new set of toys and can’t wait to show them off. However, considering that it is still in the period of preparation for war, the amount of modification works is not large, but disassembly and assembly also take up a lot of workers and working hours. Instead of wasting time and resources on such secondary matters, it is better to concentrate on doing well. Ready to fight. After the military parade after the victory of the war, it is not only more calm, but also more effective.

"In other words, everything is going well. Then"

The fingers overlapped and the topic was switched.

"How is the negotiation between Charlemagne and Albion?"

It may seem unrelated, but in fact the two are closely related.

The relationship between Charlemagne and neighboring countries directly determines the war time of Yalfheim. The faster the geopolitical environment deteriorates, the sooner the war time will begin, and the time when the God of War will come will be delayed. But the elves hope to master that time by themselves. If the war is too early, their preparations have not yet been completed, and if the war is too late, they will miss the good climatic environment required for the blitz operation, and entering the mobilization state too early will also have an impact on morale.

Therefore, closely observe the interaction between Charlemagne and the countries. It is the most important matter at present.

However, Charlemagne as the party seems to have no consciousness about this.

"I don't know what channel it was. The secret negotiation between the Prime Minister and Albion was known to the Crown Prince, and even the indecision of the Albion was clear. He seemed to think that Richelieu's plan was that Albion could The conditions for acceptance, at the court meeting on the direction of future negotiations, proposed to play'very spirit, risk raising the asking price, to overwhelm Albian's acceptance. Then, this stupid idea was supported by the vast majority of ministers."

Tyre's subconscious attempt to shrug his shoulders, which is as unrealistic as a comedy, makes him a kind of soldier model student.

Although it has long been known that Charlemagne's upper class except a few people. Most of them are people with fever and vassals. It will be sooner or later that such a proposal will appear. With such people occupying the majority, it is also an inevitable trend to force the passage of the bill. But this moment is a bit too fast.

"No need to be surprised, dear Tyre. Crown Prince and Army are happy to see their opponents fall into the mire of war and slowly drown. The second prince and Titans are unwilling to spit out what they have eaten . And I feel that I still have the power to change the battle situation. These two groups of people are not happy to see peace come. We don’t need to care about the child-like party battles. The focus is on the additional requirements."

"In addition to several previous requests made by Richelieu, it also used the covenant with Lapland and threatened the loan of the principality and the aid agreement without real progress, asking Albion to recognize Charlemagne’s freedom on the mainland and the sea. The power to act. Immediately persuade Castile to make peace, and at the same time lift the de facto embargo on Charlemagne and conclude a new trade treaty."

"A bunch of idiots."

Bren Hill commented.

Even if the mother goddess shows her spirit, don't expect the Albian people to agree to the above requirements that are the same as the initiative to surrender. In addition to ending the negotiations and starting the countdown to the war, the Charlemagne get nothing else.

In this way, the next thing can be roughly predicted.

Negotiations with no sincerity are doomed to fail to achieve the desired results, and the two sides are not yet ready for war. Continuing negotiations to cover up the war is about to break out, and preparing for preemption has become an inevitable choice for both parties. As for the elf camp, Charlie Man was the first to shoot first.

"We must create a situation in which Charlemagne uses negotiations as a cover to cover up a military attack, and then uses sneak attack to kick off the war. In this way, Charlieman will arouse general moral hatred, even if we take the initiative in the future. Blitz has also become reasonable and allowed to be forced."

Mankind hopes that the imperial commander-in-chief of the empire will do similar things. When he realizes that the war is about to start, he refuses to take preemptive measures, but passively waits for the Japanese to shoot the first shot, hoping to increase the moral condemnation of the war. On the head of the Japanese. Although Bai Mi was sparse, it did not count that the Japanese dared to attack the heart of the Pacific defense for thousands of miles, and took the main force of the fleet. However, after the successful pushback by strong industrial strength in the future, whether it is an indiscriminate crit or a mushroom, the people of the United States, including isolationists or pacifists, expressed their good news, and this is the reason.

The pundits led by Richelieu will vigorously oppose it, but they are destined to fail. In the face of the "rage" of the entire country, the rational voices of some central persons have not played a big role, and at most they will slow down the progress.

The same drama is always being performed. The Prime Minister is arguably Charlemagne’s greatest and ruthless politician and nationalist to date, but limited by the environment and cognitive level, he failed to put the "state first" The concept is carried through to the end. When the Prime Minister defaulted on the fait accompli of the "Seven-Day War", it was indeed forced by the situation, but it cannot be denied that he was somewhat confident that he would destroy it when the Titans failed, and when it could bring benefits to Charlemagne. Think of it as a convenient tool, and it is not too late to abandon and destroy it. As of today, perhaps Richelieu still has this ability, but the Cardinal apparently forgets that the army is ultimately a violent machine of the country, the muscle of the country and a tool of the country. But when the knife has thought, will it still look like Act in the same way as the master thought in the past? When he decided to put Titans off, he had already violated his philosophy.

History has proven time and time again that when the army has its own ideas and opinions, they are unwilling to continue to accept temperance. And when the government can't even restrain the army, there will inevitably be a military warlord and a national army. Now Charlemagne's situation is a good illustration of this. The Army, Navy, and Titans only obeyed the country nominally, and in fact were the private forces of the two princes and prime ministers. Except for the discrepancies arising from different interests, the soldiers have no essential difference in the idea of ​​building Charlemagne into a militarist country with the army at its core. Everything in the country must serve the army. Therefore, it does not matter whether the Prime Minister can get rid of Titans or the army. The key is that the army has become more and more integrated with the country. Unless the entire country undergoes a total collapse of cleaning. Completely eradicate the soil of militarism, otherwise the situation will always develop to the original trajectory.

Of course, for the elves, their Titans, Army, Prime Minister, Royal Family, Charlemagne, Albion, Humans, and Orcs are all tools used to achieve their goals. There is always only one fate of tools. When it is no longer in the owner's interest. Will be thrown aside immediately.

"But we can't rely too much on the enemy's own problems, nor can we put all the eggs in one basket."

Grasping the brief silence between the exchanges, Li Lin whispered.

The confidants of the meeting focused their attention on the highest governor. After stopping for one or two shots, Li Lin continued:

"Did you all read the "About the Feasibility of the Left-Wing Decreasing Combat" submitted by the General Staff?"

Everyone nodded their heads together, and it was impossible for them to read the report that almost caused the General Staff's torture, and Brenhill and Tyre still read the original manuscript.

The cause of the incident was Colonel Haining Treskov, Chief of Staff of the Army Group A, who submitted a personal opinion on the left-wing defense operations to the summit. In this private research report, Treskov has no opinion on the "Yellow Plan" as a whole, and believes that this is a rare masterpiece in the history of war, especially the "Sickle Attack" attacked by the right wing from the Ardennes area will be initiated. Mechanization is the first in a long-distance battle, bringing war into a new era. Next, the group army chief of staff turned around and expressed dissatisfaction with the left wing, the Siegfried line of defense.

"No doubt, the Siegfried line is a genius idea. But! It can only give me a little sense of security. I think we can do better, instead of throwing money underground and following a rigid schedule Actions, we can organize defenses more flexibly, leaving more room for the troops to exercise flexibly... The most dangerous part of the Siegfried line is psychologically, it creates a false sense of security and hides The feeling in the unbreakable steel fortress, once this feeling is broken, the fighting will of the troops will be hit hard."

This is a passage in the report. It is this kind of "great injustice" that provokes a strong response from the General Staff. In their view, the front-line staff did not focus on their frontal battlefields, arming and fighting against other fronts. The plan's finger-pointing is already a very serious act of arrogance, but it dared to criticize the military strategy formulated by the supreme governor as a rebellion. If the "thorns" are not beaten down, a wicked spirit will be formed in the future, resulting in the disappearance of military discipline, can we still count on the army to fight? As a result, the General Staff immediately demanded that a military court be convened to try Treskov on the charge of "contempt for superiors". And Treskov also has many friends and colleagues, either agree with his combat plan, or oversight of the General Staff’s trivial matters, and have come out in solidarity with Colonel Treskov, and for a time it has been stormy and almost developed from the verbal. Into a duel. In the end, it was the consul who personally came forward and fought for 50 big boards each before putting things down.

Leaving aside the impact of the incident itself, from a purely strategic and tactical point of view, Treskov's opinion is indeed quite innovative.

In the yellow plan, the task of the left wing can be summarized by the term "holding the pinch". According to the assumption of the General Staff, relying on a series of fortifications on the Siegfried line of defense, the defenders were able to hold on for more than half a year, while the right-wing blitz troops could complete the roundabout outs in up to a few weeks. During this period, the main force of Charlemagne's army will be attracted to the Siegfried line of defense. At that time, the defending army can use the artillery force to reduce the number and morale of the enemy army, and eventually encircle the enemy with roundabout troops.

In theory, there is nothing wrong with it. Taking advantage of your own advantages to weaken or even eliminate opponents is the basis for using troops. But Treskov pointedly pointed out: The left clearly did not consider how to deal with the defenders if the enemy lost a lot of money under the barriers of the fortress but failed to gain ground. In the event of a final decisive battle, when the number of enemies in the encirclement is still huge, and you are determined to die in the end, what should you do?

In the final analysis, there is insufficient flexibility for the left wing of the General Staff. In case of unforeseen circumstances, it is very likely that a chain reaction will be induced due to the departure of one link, which will lead to the failure of the entire battle.

In response to this problem, Treskov proposed his solution "decrease invitations, mobile defense."

The so-called declining invitation is to use small mobile units and aviation units with strong mobility to launch uninterrupted encounters on the way to the defense of the Siegfried line of the Charlemagne army, so that the enemy forces that have a number of advantages cannot concentrate all their forces to attack Siegfried. The line of defense must be adjusted to prevent surprise attacks from unknown sources. At the same time, the enemy forces can also be restrained if they turn.

As for mobile defense, when the enemy forces attack, they actively give up the secondary areas, lengthen the enemy's supply line, and launch counterattacks when the opponent's logistics are difficult to follow. Make full use of sports warfare consumption and contain opponents so that they cannot easily attack or retreat.

"Colonel Treskov's idea is very creative, and he made full use of the huge gap between the enemy and the enemy in communication and machine power, but he ignored the two conditions necessary for his strategy."

Shaking his index finger and middle finger, Li Lin said leisurely:

"The vast strategic space and the near-ideal developments."

In the history of war on earth, declining combat is nothing new. Guerrilla warfare and sports warfare have similar characteristics. The Japanese navy before World War II invented an unprecedented "nine-segment interception", and the mobile defense was even used by the Soviets during World War II. After playing well, as for the Kaishen Gong who turned into the wind, anyway, it can be regarded as listening to the motto of Jiang Baili's "space for time", plus his old man finally did not learn Wang Jingwei as a traitor, here also counts the national army during the war of resistance In the case of mobile defense.

The above cases all have one thing in common: the defending party has enough space depth.

Needless to say, Maozi and Tianchao, even as the island nation of Japan, when setting the "nine-section interception", the theater of war was drawn from the west coast of the United States to the Marshall Islands in the Central Pacific Ocean. The elf’s territory is not that big ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ plus Charlemagne’s army from the assembly point to the Siegfried defense area can not play that defeat strategy.

On the other hand, declining operations can effectively contain enemy forces, but the deployment of mobile units will obviously weaken the right-wing combat power. This is obviously contrary to the "precision of the right-wing" strategy, so the feasibility is not high.

"That being said, we don’t have to totally deny the idea of ​​the new plan. Ideas such as using small forces to harass and bombing the enemies on the move with aviation power are of practical significance and feasibility. Cooperating with the fortress train group, With the fortress of Isherlen as the core of the fortress..."

Li Lin got up and spread out the combat map on his desk, and took a pencil to draw it on the map. The confidants quickly gathered around to listen carefully to Li Lin's tactical ideas.

"report!"

A sudden report came, and everyone raised their heads, and saw the captain of the Guards walked in quickly.

"His Excellency, His Excellency Secretary of State Albion, His Excellency Walsingham, sent an urgent contact request."

Niederhogger reported with a serious face. (To be continued...)
