Chapter 1073 Midfield Adjustment

"This time, the Bavarian Army did not concentrate its forces on one point. Their attack surface was very wide, and they attacked in several directions at the same time. Even a regiment-scale combat unit was brave enough to attack us. Of course, after After a long time of fighting, our troops suffered great losses. The severe decline in combat effectiveness may also be an important reason for their daring to attack in an all-round way. But other than that, I can't think of any difference between them." Alekseyev said.

"On the surface, the Bavarians are still accustomed to tank assaults, artillery clearing the way, and then using planes to harass and suppress our artillery. After using tons of ammunition, their infantry will step on the ruins and Shrapnel to occupy the position. I don’t feel any different.” Kulopatkin’s words were full of envy, jealousy, and hatred. He saw that the Bavarian Legion’s combat effectiveness was entirely piled up with industry and money, and there was nothing special about it. The tactic is just to die. To paraphrase later generations, that is, RMB players sling free players....

"If you have to say something different, then my feeling is that they have added a large number of half-tracked vehicles and armored vehicles. If you look at the number of tanks only, the number used by the other party is not much, not to mention the comparison with the Western Front. It is even far less than the number of tanks used in the first border battle on the Eastern Front, but because of the addition of a large number of armored vehicles, their firepower on the battlefield has increased by a notch. It seems that Bavaria may be replaced by a large number of armored vehicles in the future Tanks? Another feature is that they have appeared a lot of light bicycle troops. This has greatly improved their overall movement speed." Alekseyev said.

"Yes, it's the speed of movement. I have found the key to the problem. In the previous battle, the Bavarian Army only had the breakthrough division and the rapid division that could perform fast maneuvers. And such divisions were only about one third of the total number of divisions. , This allows them to easily encircle the combat surface at shallow depths, but they cannot do it at large depths. But this time, we can find that the three Bavarian divisions on the front line and the four following divisions are advancing very fast. Even the slowest division has an average travel distance of more than 35 kilometers per day!" Borusinov seems to have suddenly discovered the key to the problem!

If before, the Bavarian Army was only part of the army fast, then this time, the Germans seem to be faster overall! By optimizing the configuration, the Germans used the faster but not long-lasting bicycle unit for front-line breakthroughs, while the mechanized unit, which concentrated a large number of motor vehicles, developed directly across the line opened by the bicycle unit. This means that good steel is used on the blade. Those who don't run far go up first, opening the initial line for those who run far, and the mechanized troops that save power can advance farther!

In short, this time, the Bavarian Army still made a fuss about speed, and in doing so, the result was that the opponents cleanly defeated the Russian Seventh Army! As a result, a Russian legion once said afterwards: "I feel that the Bavarian legion doesn't seem to have time to fight, and they can only catch up with us all so quickly!"

"That's the case, but if you dare to move on, I promise you will hit your head and beat your blood!" Borusinov, who felt that he had found the core of the problem, let out a sigh of relief. He believes that the reason for this battle is entirely due to the excessive consumption of the Russian Seventh Army in previous engagements.

Under certain technical conditions, the speed and combat effectiveness of the troops are actually inversely related. If the bicycle troops directly face the fully loaded Russian first-line infantry division, not to mention the latter will definitely be able to stop it, but the former will definitely not be very Smooth, after all, the latter's artillery and machine guns are not just for fun. In the final analysis, the bicycle unit is a lightly armed unit. They lack the heavy artillery and tanks that the Germans rely on to win. Without these things, at least at the equipment level, they have no advantage over the Russians. This time, the fundamental reason why the Bavarian Army dared to play this way was the weakness of the Russian army.

But it won’t happen in the future. Although the Russian Eighth Army has lost some in the previous period, its strength and artillery are still much stronger than the average Russian Army. This tricky method of the Germans will be difficult to work, at least in Borusinov's view!

What Brusinov said did have some truth. Judging from the current situation, the 7 divisions of the Bavarian and Bohemia regiments were already very exhausted after severe damage to the Russian Seventh Army. The loss of equipment and the consumption of supplies made it difficult for them to make further breakthroughs in depth.

However, fortunately, Prince Ruprecht finally left behind, following in the footsteps of the Bavarian Army. The Mackensen Army, which has never fought a tough battle, is already in place, and the forward troops have reached the Russian defense line. This battle can actually be regarded as a two-stage attack. The Bavarian Army was responsible for killing the Seventh Army, and the Mackensen Army was responsible for expanding the victory.

"All the servicing troops give the extra transportation and fuel to Mackensen. He uses these. In addition, tell the Hungarians that if they want us to deal with the Romanians~www.wuxiaspot.com~ then we will use them along the way. The army station and supplies are complete. After we solve the problem in Galicia, we will naturally help them." The prince ordered.

"Russian Eighth Army is equipped with a large number of heavy artillery, and there are even many train guns. Our firepower is actually at a disadvantage. Although the air force has controlled the sky, it wants to suppress a group army’s artillery group with a limited amount of bombs. It’s very difficult for China’s air force.” Calipute said with a frown.

The air force’s own battle damage and mechanical wear are one aspect, and more importantly, the increase in range will inevitably lead to a decrease in ammunition load, which is even more terrifying. If each K4 wants to make trouble in the rear of the Eighth Army, then the bomb load is only 60% of the previous amount, which invisibly reduces the output of the bomber by about half. You know, now the air force’s battle damage is less than 15%!

"Armored troops, air force, a large number of cars and armored vehicles, it seems that we have all the cards out, and the rest is just rigid?" The prince sighed and said, in fact, as a traverser, If you can't rely on IQ to win, but can only rely on hard work to win, it is a very uncomfortable experience.
