Chapter 1033: Demon Disintegration Dafa II
Slide 1033
For digging naval corners, Kuropatkin does not have any psychological pressure. In this era, the army of all countries has an eternal enemy called the navy... Now, whether it is the Baltic Sea or the Black Sea, the Allied navies have not shown an offensive posture, and if the Allied powers intend to move, whether it is the High Seas Fleet in the Baltic Sea or the Spey Fleet in the Black Sea, the Russians will not be able to defeat it.. ..... In other words, the survival of the Russian Navy does not depend on itself, but on whether the opponent wants to fight.
The Russians realized their sad situation early on, so they emphasized submarine warfare and mine warfare. Hope to resist the German fleet's attack in the narrow Baltic Sea, the capital ship is still a deterrent force, and the resources of the old navy warships should be recovered by the army, as for the Black Sea? The Russians have pinned their hopes on their allies. If Britain and France can get through the Dardanelles, then everything will be done. If you can't get through, let's be honest...
And compared to the Baltic Theater, the Russians do not value the Black Sea so much. After all, in the Russians' eyes, what if the Allied fleets have obtained the Black Sea dominance? They still want to land in Ukraine? Just the quality of the Turkish army? Want to make a big news when you are too busy? ! What do you think? !
Therefore, in Kuropatkin's plan, the general decided to attack the Black Sea Fleet first and bring some "unusable shore artillery" ideas. In fact, what is different from what most people think is that shore artillery is not necessarily a heavy artillery with a large caliber. There must be artillery of 12-inch naval gun or even above, but most of them are small artillery. Especially for countries like Russia. Take the Gulf of Riga in history as an example, there were only 8 12-inch shore artillery, and the largest number was 6-inch shore artillery, with a total of 32.
Of course, these artillery pieces are extremely precious resources for the army. For the Russian army, a division cannot be divided into four 6-inch long-barreled cannons. The 12-inch shore artillery and 10-inch shore artillery in the Navy can greatly make up for the shortage of the army’s overweight artillery, while the 6-inch artillery can make up for the lack of military firepower, while the 130MM shore artillery or 120MM naval artillery can be used as the first division Class firepower increased. According to Kuropatkin’s prediction, after scouring the navy’s shore artillery, the artillery and inventory of the old warships, and at the same time, if a confidant transfers the naval artillery factory to the army, then the first-line Russian army can have more than 300 3 inches. Above the artillery! The more than 20 12-inch artillery and 10-inch artillery that can be freed up have improved the Russian Army’s combat combat capabilities to a new level!
"Well, I agree in principle to transfer some of the artillery that does not belong to the Sevastopol Fortress, as well as the artillery and personnel on the old battleships of the Baltic Fleet, but the defense in the Gulf of Finland is best left untouched." Nicholas II thought I thought about it. what? You asked why the Russian navy personnel did not object? It's very simple. This is an army meeting. The navy did not participate. After the Russo-Japanese War, the Russian navy's presence was very low...
"The key is that we must kill the Austro-Hungarian Empire as soon as possible. Before the Bavarian Legion can react, we will take Galicia and control the Carpathians. As long as we can control several important mountain passes, the Bavarian Legion will be stronger. Can't start! So, do you have any ideas now?" The Russian Emperor asked afterwards.
"Strengthen the construction of the rapid army! And even if the air force cannot provide help on the ground, it must at least be able to stop the opposing bombers!" said Alekseyev, the commander-in-chief of the Russian Southwest Front. If you want to quickly defeat the Austro-Hungarian Army, it mainly depends on the performance of the Southwest Front Army. Now, the Russian front-line troops have been adjusted. The Northwest Front Army has been increased from the original 2 to 5, mainly used to defend the Bavarian Army. There are three Southwest Front Army, mainly used to deal with the Austro-Hungarian Army, and there is also a multi-army force in the direction of Warsaw, mainly as a reserve team, but Alekseyev knows that this reserve team has nothing to do with him. Only three armies under his own are the only ones who can be reliable!
"We intend to choose Lviv as a breakthrough. Although this is a solid support point built by the Austro-Hungarian Army, we still have to open the gap from here because it is the farthest from the Bavarian Army. The frontal attack is not a big problem, the real problem It is that we must be able to block the reinforcements from Bavaria! If the other side opens up and fights, we will definitely not be able to fight, so there is only one way."
"While the main force attacked the Lviv Fortress, the rapid force penetrated the opponent's line of defense and detoured behind the line of defense, cutting off their line of communication and destroying the railway hub! So that the opponent could not assemble quickly!"
Alekseyev really deserves to be taught by the prince to be a man... I finally understand some things from the repeated beatings. For example, the Bavarian Legion cannot be smashed head-on. For example, the importance of the line of communication to the Bavarian Legion, which has been reloaded by the entire army, is the cost of maneuvering on roads in this era. It's still too high. Heavy equipment still depends on the railway. And if the railway line near the breach can be destroyed or controlled, it will be of great significance for delaying the offensive of the Bavarian Army. To some extent, the prince and the prince directly landed in the Gulf of Riga~www.wuxiaspot.com ~ Then there are similarities in creating a large encirclement of hundreds of thousands square kilometers, but the difference in combat effectiveness is too big. Therefore, the Russians can only play a small range of segmentation.
If this task goal can be completed, then it will be easier to handle later. A large number of heavy artillery and railway cannons are released, and then the three army groups will directly group together. Everyone is scared when they meet. The Bavarian army is strong, but lacks The railway gun is a big killer. Moreover, it’s far away from the home ground of the Bavarian Army and the air force’s combat radius is not enough. If one plus one minus, the Russians think they can still hold the breakthrough. As for the death and injury more than the opponent, that’s for sure, but it’s okay, the Russians How much!
But in this way, the assault speed of the Russian Army must increase? The strength of the assault force must also be increased. Therefore, armored vehicles are something you can't get around. Even if you can't build a lot of tanks, at least you have to get some armored vehicles and truck guns, right? Otherwise, the troops will go in and the support firepower can't keep up. How can we fight? Therefore, Kuropatkin accepted Arikseyev's suggestion that even if imported engines are used, he must find ways to produce a batch of armored vehicles and fighters! And in the next two months, I really got something from the Arctic Ocean route!
