Chapter 1034: Demon Disintegration Dafa III
Chapter 1034 Great method for the disintegration of the demon (3)
"I need fourteen more cavalry divisions to break through the opponent's line of defense!" And then, Alexeyev's words didn't scare the Czar down! The cavalry of 14 divisions! Not to mention the number of people, this horse is not nearly 170,000! (Including the logistical horses) Let's not talk about how these military horses are raised, the forward position alone cannot support the cavalry of these 14 divisions! You know, the weight of a horse's feed is 10 times that of a human! The transportation capacity originally allocated to the three armies is increasing the transportation capacity of 14 cavalry divisions. If nothing else, the transportation capacity will definitely collapse! On the front line, even if the grass roots are gnawed away, I am afraid I can't raise so many horses!
Therefore, there is no doubt that these horses will surely die in large numbers once a battle begins. To some extent, these horses are ammunition, a more expensive consumable, and even with the size of Russia, it consumes cavalry horses to such an extent. That is also extremely uncomfortable! Because Russia's railway transportation capacity is insufficient, a large amount of livestock will be consumed for transportation. What was originally enough may not be enough after the war. If you consider the consumption of military horses in this battle in the future, that is definitely a terrible figure! If this battle is lost, the cavalry regiment that Russia is proud of will probably be greatly hurt!
Or in other words, if this battle is lost, I am afraid that the Russian Army will lose the ability to maneuver large-scale fast regiments. The reason is simple. There are no horses suitable for cavalry...
"This price is a bit big!" Nicholas II didn't know much about military affairs, but he was also taken aback by Alexeyev's request. A Russian cavalry division now has about 9,000 men. In addition to regular cavalry, the Russians have increased the number of artillery and carriage machine guns. Now a cavalry division has 6 cavalry regiments, and there are about 5,000 personnel using sabers and cavalry rifles. The remaining 4000 people are responsible for artillery, machine guns, and logistics. Now a regular Russian cavalry division has 36 3-inch rapid-fire guns, not counting mortars and possible deployment of howitzers. To some extent, this has changed. It has become a horse-riding infantry unit that uses horses to maneuver and has strong combat effectiveness.
This reorganization has greatly enriched the combat effectiveness of some troops, but the total amount is fixed after all. Some troops have more personnel and equipment, so some of the remaining troops and equipment will be less. The Germans also transferred a large number of second-line and The equipment of the third-line fortress brought the front-line troops to a new level. But even the Russians know that this is a seven-strike punch, hurting yourself first and then hurting others. It belongs to the method of disintegrating the celestial demon after taking drugs. If you win, it is naturally good. If you lose... The consequences are disastrous!
"How long will it take for us to start this battle?" Brusinov asked, who had been silent.
"It takes about two to three months to prepare." Alekseyev said.
"At most, I will give you 10 additional cavalry divisions. Otherwise, if there is no war, these horses can eat up our frontline warehouses. Maybe before we fight the Austro-Hungarian Empire, your cavalry will lack enough. First, reduce the number of employees by 20%." Brusinov said.
"We can prepare now." Alekseyev said.
"Of course, we can even start from tomorrow, but unless you double the railway line, otherwise, that won't work." Brusinov replied calmly. As the top Russian commander in World War I, Brusinov’s judgment on the situation is still in place. On the one hand, the Russian front-line supply system cannot withstand the deployment of 3 army groups and 24 cavalry divisions on such a small front. The (plus the cavalry divisions attached to the other army groups.) Huge consumption. On the other hand, he is not a gambler and does not want to put all the weights of Russia on in a battle! After all, even if you occupy Galicia, the Austro-Hungarian Empire may not be over.
And in Brusinov’s view, it’s a bit too early to engage in similar decisive battles. The aeroengines and car engines imported from Italy and the Allies have not yet been used, and truck guns have not yet been built. Germany and Germany Britain and France on the western front are out of breath before they fight. At this time, Russia doesn't have to meet Austria-Hungary first!
In contrast to Nikolayev, Kurodakin’s and others’ suggestion that Austro-Hungary should be defeated as soon as possible, Brusinov does not support it. What he hopes is to maintain the stability of the Eastern Front, without seeking merit. No fault. Russia's strength on the Eastern Front is limited. If it launches an offensive on the Austro-Hungarian side, its strength and resources will definitely be tight, and it is also doubtful that Poland can block a blow from the Bavarian Army. So he agreed to launch a limited attack in Galicia, but he was unwilling to put all the money down.
Therefore, under both political and strategic considerations, Brusinov requested a limited limit on the scale of the attack. After consideration, Nicholas II agreed to the former’s request. Finally, when the battle began, Arik Seyev has only 18 cavalry divisions. At the same time, because of Russia’s poor industrial conditions and the sad traffic conditions, the deployment of heavy artillery and aircraft has not reached the standard. What’s more sad is that the Russians’ assessment of the cost of the battle has appeared. The simple problem is that the ammunition and supplies are not enough... Of course, this is something later, so I won't mention it for the time being.
"How are we doing in Romania?" Nicholas II asked~www.wuxiaspot.com~Their emperor is still hesitating. The Prime Minister of Romania, Prime Minister Bretianu, is an old slippery man. He has never Make a clear statement in public. But the king’s nephew, Ferdinand was very inclined towards us, but in private they asked us to provide weapons to arm the Romanian army. "Kuropatkin said.
"If Romania is on our side, then the probability of our success should be high?" Nicholas II touched his chin and thought.
"I think that with the Romanians' combat power, simply providing weapons may not guarantee them to withstand German and Austrian attacks. Therefore, if Ferdinand is willing to accept the help of our personnel, I think it is possible to provide some weapons. You say yes Isn't that true?" Nicholas II said meaningfully.
"You mean, we can help that heir to replace their king when necessary?" Kuropatkin asked. "If we wait until Romania surrenders, we will probably delay our attack."
