"Get up, the slaves who are hungry and cold! Get up, the suffering people all over the world! The blood is full of boiling, and you must fight for the truth! The old world is full of flowers and flowing water, and the slaves get up, get up! Don't say that we have nothing, we must be the masters of the world..."

The loud international song sounded in the carriage of the Ford trucks assisted by the United States. Yakov Fedotovic Pavlov, the squad leader of the machine gun squad from the Novgorod village, was singing the International song with his comrades with the most excited mood in his life. This is the war song of the world revolution and the national anthem of the current Soviet motherland.

As Soviets who grew up under the Red Banner, Pavlov and his comrades were cultivated as soldiers of the world's revolution.

When they bid farewell to innocent childhood, they tied their bright red scarf around their necks and solemnly swore "to be ready" in front of the bright red youth vanguard flag. They were already a little GC warrior, and were ready to devote their entire life and all their energy to the most magnificent cause in the world. The struggle for human liberation!

In a more popular way, the Young Pioneers' oath is the oath of war, the oath of launching a world war to liberate all mankind!

This oath gradually became a formality after many years, and almost forgotten after being announced. No one is really ready to fight a world war to liberate all mankind.

But Pavlov and his comrades were both the first generation of Soviets, and they were not the old fried dough sticks and the little fried dough sticks later. They really believed in GCism and were really ready to liberate all mankind.

After their generation solemnly took the oath, the Soviet education department continued to instill in them the lofty ideal of liberating mankind with the greatest revolutionary enthusiasm and expectation of the victory of the world revolution.

He also told them that there are 90% and 60% of the world (this proportion has changed twice in the 1930s due to the revolution in East Asia) and the working people are still living in dire straits, hoping that the Soviet GC fighters who sang the Internationale will rescue them day and night.

Growing up under this kind of ideological education, Pavlov regarded joining the Red Army to liberate humanity as his lifelong career since he was a child. This ideal was finally partially realized when he turned 21 years old. In 1938, he became a glorious Red Army soldier.

And today, at 6 pm on May 31, 1942, he and his comrades waited for the order to begin the world revolution!

"Ula!Ula!Ula..."

The scenes of that time are still emerging in Pavlov's mind. When everyone learned from the company's instructor Comrade Turetsky that the world revolution began, everyone in the company cheered. Although everyone was surprised by attacking the former socialist comrades and brothers Germany, no one thought too much. This is the highest instruction of the father's leader, who would still doubt it? How could the father's leader Stalin be wrong?

"Dear Maria, this morning, I received the news from Comrade Watujing, the group's military and political committee member, that the world revolution will begin on June 1. What an exciting moment. Before we became revolutionary partners, we had longed for this solemn and sacred moment together. Now this moment has finally come!

It’s a pity that I cannot share the joy and excitement of this moment with you, because my troops will cross the Bug River in the first batch and step onto the land of White Poland. There are 30 million people in dire straits waiting for us to liberate and save. This is also the mission given to our generation of Soviets by history.

Now I am going to fulfill my mission, please wait for me to return in triumph. If I unfortunately sacrifice on the way to victory, please do not be sad for me. As a glorious Bolshevik Party member and a political cadre of the Red Army, I should devote my life to the cause of liberation of mankind.

In addition, when you see this letter, all the commanders and soldiers of the 205th Division should have arrived at the city of Warsaw. Maybe we have liberated the capital of Poland, Warsaw.

If so, dear Maria, please cheer for our victory, and for the liberation and freedom of the Polish people!

Love you Ilya Okjabriski."

The political commissar of the 205th Division of the Soviet Red Army where Pavlov was located and the regiment-level political commissar Okjabrisky, while thinking about the letter he wrote to his wife Maria, was riding on a simple road with a shaking car.

In front and behind him, various vehicles lined up more than ten kilometers of troops. Due to the Ford trucks provided by the Americans, the 205th Red Army Division was motorized in early 1942, and now it can follow the mechanized troops and the cavalry troops.

Moreover, there are not only 205th Divisions, but as many as 154! These 124 motorized infantry divisions, 116 cavalry divisions, and 31 tank troops, together form the most powerful maneuverable strike force of the Soviet Red Army. Just by counting in quantity, this is also the most powerful mechanized army in the world!

Political Commissar Ilya Okjabrisky, who knew the strong strength of the Soviet Army, had certainly had a reason to be confident at the moment when the world revolution began.

...

"How many armored divisions do we have now? How many armored regiments do we have?"

On the night of May 31, the Ministry of Defense Building at 73 William Street was brightly lit and an emergency meeting of the Command was being held. At the beginning of the meeting, Adolf Hitler asked about the number of armored troops that had been changing, so that Hitler sometimes couldn't figure out the exact data.

"There are 21 armored divisions," replied Hessman, the Secretary of Defense. "There are 31 armored regiments."

After the Western Front Battle, the German Wehrmacht expanded its armored forces, and the number of armored divisions increased from 10 to 21. However, the armored regiments did not increase to 42 accordingly (in accordance with one armored division, it should be 42 regiments). The newly built armored divisions after the Western Front Battle now have only one armored regiment, so the German Wehrmacht now has only 31 armored regiments.

In addition, all the armored divisions, armored grenade divisions (motorized infantry divisions) and infantry divisions of the German Wehrmacht Army have been reduced from the 4th Regiment of the 2nd Brigade to the 3rd Regiment.

"Leader, although the number of armored regiments is not full, each armored regiment is sufficient." Hessman saw Hitler frowning and hurriedly comforted him, "Each regiment has 2 tank battalions, and each tank battalion has 4 tank companies. The 31 armored regiments of the army have a total of 62 battalions and 248 companies. Each company has 22 tanks in-built, and these 31 armored regiments have a total of 5,456 tanks in-built. All of them are No. 4 H-type tanks.

The 16 armored grenade divisions (the original motorized infantry division or brigade are now being expanded and adapted into armored grenade divisions as planned) also have a tank battalion. The 16 tank battalions belonging to the armored grenade divisions have a total of 1,408 tanks, all of which are No. 4 H-type tanks.

The Defense Army also has 9 heavy tank battalions, each with 44 powerful Tiger tanks or Black Panther tanks. There are a total of 396 tanks in edification.

In addition, the National Wehrmacht Force now has a large number of No. 3 assault guns. Each armored grenade division has an assault gun battalion, and each armored grenade regiment (the armored division and armored grenade division both have an armored grenade regiment) has an assault gun company. Each infantry division's artillery unit also has a No. 3 assault gun battalion.

In addition, the Marine Corps and the Airborne Forces also have eight tank companies each, equipped with No. 3 tanks and 38t tanks respectively."

Since the Battle of the Western Front, the German Wehrmacht has shifted its focus to the Navy and Air Force, so the resources allocated to the army are limited. The number of armored forces currently owned by the German Army is not much different from the same period in history. Tanks that can be used for front-line combat (not counting training, testing and backup vehicles), totaling 7,260 vehicles, but the quality has been improved a little. The No. 4 H-type has become the absolute main force, and the Tiger and Black Panther have also begun to be equipped with a small amount of equipment.

In addition to tank No. 4, assault gun No. 3 has become another main armored weapon that the German Wehrmacht Army relied on, just like in history.

As of the end of May 1942, there were more than 240 assault gun battalions equipped with No. 3 assault guns, nearly 90 assault gun companies belonging to the Armored Grenadier Regiment, and nearly 4,900 assault guns under the assembly.

"12,160 tanks and assault guns..." Hitler had calculated the approximate data, and he asked, "Where is the Soviet Union? How many tanks does the Soviet Union currently have?"

"What has been found is 31 tank troops, 7 mechanized troops, a total of 100 tank brigades, and 200 tank regiments, with about 25,000 tanks." Hessman said, "It is twice as many as us, and 80% of them are concentrated on the western battlefield. Now most of these tanks are likely to be preparing to attack Warsaw!"

There were 20,000 tanks preparing to crush Warsaw and Berlin! Even when Hitler heard the news, his heart beat faster.

"Can you defeat the Soviets?" he asked Hessman.
