Chapter 679: Closing

"Leave a gap in the northwest. We won't be so embarrassed to meet Xiao Maoqi in the future." In the end, there were still some flaws in this encirclement. Under the prince’s deliberate order, Mackensen took fewer people and evacuated from the gap in the encirclement net. As night fell, the two sides who had been fighting for a day finally died down. Although it was only the second day, the outcome was already obvious.

"All the four infantry battalions that broke into the enemy’s security position were lost, and General Mackenson’s rapid assault group was almost wiped out. Together, there would be seven infantry battalions and all our mobile forces, plus the deployment of defenses. We lost 80% of the rapid-fire artillery and small-caliber artillery in the position, and the howitzer unit over 105mm also lost more than 40%. The total number of artillery that can be used does not exceed 40 visually.” That night, Hindenburg will today The summary of the battle was sent up.

   "That is to say, in one day, we have been interrupted? We actually lost so simply. So thorough." Xiao Mao smiled bitterly. The loss of infantry units is still tolerable, after all, it is slightly more than one-third, and it can barely be beaten. But the artillery lost more than 70%, so Xiao Maoqi had no other ideas about the future war. This is tantamount to rapidly reducing the firepower of a German reinforced division to a level not as good as that of a Russian division. How to fight this? No matter how well the fortifications are repaired, if there is no equivalent artillery, it will end up being blown up by the opponent.

"The Bavarian Army also suffered heavy losses. All the infantry units combined totaled nearly 3 battalions. The armored cluster they were proud of was also crippled. It is said that no more than 15 vehicles could be used after the first day. In other words, more than 70% of the tanks will temporarily withdraw from the battlefield." Hindenburg comforted.

"Haha, don’t comfort me. The situation is not as bad as I imagined. Their victors have taken control of the battlefield. All damaged vehicles can be dragged back to be repaired. Many vehicles cannot continue fighting because of malfunctions and exhaustion of ammunition. It will not be long before they can regain their combat effectiveness, and when they regain their combat effectiveness, we will have nothing to stop them. We lost, and we lost completely. This is shameful, but it is not a reason for us to make excuses. "Little Maoqi said.

"This exercise was planned by me. I will bear all the problems and responsibilities alone. It has nothing to do with you. If in the future, we present here can replace me, I hope everyone can absorb this failure. Lessons learned, we are inferior to them, so we need to learn. Fortunately, we are fighting under the banner of one side war. We are friends rather than enemies." Xiao Maoqi said sadly.

"After the fight, take a rest for two days. Don't be too anxious. You can take care of the military affairs. I have to deal with other things first. Also, I will write the summary of today's battle." At the same time , Ruprecht also put the exercises aside, winning the battle was something he expected. Ninety percent of the military tasks have been completed, and the rest is politics. This time, Princess Mary and Earl Schelling were not around, and this kind of thing could only be handled by the prince himself.

"If you really stabbed out according to the actual situation, even if Xiao Moqi did not step down, he would be beaten into the cold palace, right?" When an officer brought out today's record of results, Ruprecht was also frightened by his own results. Jump, up to now, the Prussian Army has lost 70% of its artillery, and even if the previous exercises reach the end, they will not lose so much. Generally five or six achievements are enough for one party to admit defeat. This military problem is not solved 90%, basically 90%, even if the Bavarian Legion is lying down for the next 5 days, it is considered a win.

  Battle damage in the exercise is better than the war damage in the war. The losing side’s weapon cannot be really destroyed, so it can be left on the battlefield directly and the number of referees can be counted. Then the commanders of both sides confirmed that it was correct, and then handed it over to the Kaiser.

"If this exercise were to be lost so badly and so quickly, someone would definitely have a scapegoat, and 80% of it would be Xiao Maoqi. If Xiao Maoqi comes down and replaces him with Kruger or Helingen, then it would be better for Xiao Maoqi to talk. The latter level is not enough." The prince began to calculate.

In fact, no matter who the Prussian side replaces in this exercise, the result can only be worse, not better. Little Mochi and Mackensen have at least some understanding of the Bavarian Army. If they are replaced by others, they may lose. I don't know how to lose. Anyway, I jumped a few times before facing death, and hit a wave of powerful counterattacks. The performance is actually very good.

Whether it is from the abilities of Little Mochi or from a personal point of view, Ruprecht does not want to let Little Mochi be in the dark. After all, the Prussian Legion is better in his hands than in the hands of others, so he decided to put his opponent in this exercise. Ma, I corrected a few data on the battle damage summary, and then added some compliments and sent the document to the messenger.

  "Is this a slap, is it a benefit?" When Xiao Moqi saw the Bavarian documents sent by the messenger, he couldn't help but smile. Your own loss table is 20% higher than that of the other party. This situation has never happened in previous exercises. Everyone is eager to write other people's losses larger and write less yourself. But for the other party’s favor~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Xiao Maoqi couldn’t refuse, even if he refused, the subordinates who had been busy with him for most of the day stopped doing it. Everyone was in the circle and wanted to go up. Well, you can't commit public anger.

  Of course, this is just a slow-down strategy, and the reduced losses will be made up in the exercises in the next few days. Moreover, the Kaiser will have its own channels to know the truth about things. The king’s secrets are always the most. Little Mochi is sure. Now the Kaiser and even the Austrian emperor’s desk has a more reliable statistics. The former is naturally Provided by the Kaiser’s eyes and ears, but the latter? The prince wanted a greater say, at this time, he would speak the truth to the Austrian emperor.

However, since the Bavarian side is willing to speak for themselves, one thing is certain is that this matter will not cause too much trouble. The Kaiser is concerned about two points. The first point is how to improve the combat effectiveness of the army. This aspect is to be done after the exercise, and another point. Just face. If the Bavarian military cooperated, then the Kaiser would not forcefully pull out a scapegoat, at least he would not use Xiao Maoqi as a target.

Up to now, both Ruprecht and Little Mochi have put their minds outside the battlefield, because this exercise is actually over, and the rest is just wrangling and mushrooming, but the political and pattern changes triggered by this incident just began! Not only Germany, but also Austria-Hungary!

  In other words, the old version of the starting point has been cancelled, and there is no more monthly pass and rewards--! This is really not the author's pot--! In the comment area, there is a thank-you building for rewards, and all book friends who rewarded can leave a name--! Sorry--! Today is still three shifts~~~!
