Chapter 128 Adolf's Past(1/3)
Li Xiao didn't know that the Prussians at this time had no intention of launching an attack.
"Conspiracy, this is a conspiracy, a complete conspiracy." Frederick's face was livid, and he beat the thick oak desk angrily.
The sturdy desk was beaten with a bang, which showed the extent of Frederick's rage.
"Damn it, this old bastard Winter is a bastard and a son of a bitch!"
Bald Moltke and Bismarck looked at each other with helpless expressions on their faces.
Just yesterday at the Prussian Federal Parliament meeting, Frederick struggled to retain the position of Chancellor Bismarck.
But... Moltke lost his position as Chief of General Staff.
He was replaced by von Feng from Bavaria.
Count Richthofen.
As soon as Richthofen came to power, he drastically reorganized the General Staff.
A large number of Moltke's capable men were sent to the frontline troops, and most of the newly promoted officers were captured officers in Bavaria.
Especially von Bock and von.
The two Guderians were mentioned from colonel to major general.
Moreover, the two of them served as commanders of the First Army Group and the Second Army Group respectively.
You know, their predecessor had the rank of general.
Their military ranks are even lower than those of many military commanders.
What's even more outrageous is that Richthofen even promoted a man named Alwin.
Rommel's officer.
He was directly promoted to colonel and appointed as the division commander of the main division.
Rommel, who is he? I’ve never heard of him!
It is said that he served in the Mountain Division before and even received the Iron Cross.
But there are many people in the army who have won the Iron Cross, and I have never heard of anyone being promoted from major to colonel all at once.
This is using power for personal gain!
But the problem is that not even the emperor can stop what the Federal Conference has decided.
This was written into the federal code at the beginning of the unification of Prussia.
At the beginning, it was also for the purpose of pacifying all forces in Prussia.
Originally, Frederick had absolute control over the Federal Parliament.
But I didn't expect that Winter would poach him at some point.
What bothered Frederick the most was that he was being poached but he didn't even know it.
Thinking of this, Frederick looked at Bismarck and Moltke dissatisfied.
Between the two of them, one is in charge of the Prime Minister's Office and the other is in charge of the General Staff. Could it be that they didn't receive the slightest hint of the incident?
However, after thinking about it, Frederick withdrew his suspicion.
After all, their political lives are tied to themselves.
If he falls, it will definitely not be easy for the two of them.
"What to do now?
You can’t just watch those Bavarians do whatever they want in the General Staff Headquarters!”
Frederick was tired of losing his temper and sat down on a chair.
"So what can I do? This is the only way.
Fortunately, the Prime Minister's Office is still in our hands, and we may not be able to get it back."
Bismarck was scheming after all. Although he had just experienced a huge political turmoil, he had already calmed down and thought about what to do next.
"His Majesty!
I think things are already like this, so it's better to just let them mess around.
but……"
"But what?" Frederick frowned. He didn't expect Bismarck to say that.
"But we have to publish it in the newspaper to let these things be known to the public.
Publish these people's resumes and so on in newspapers.
You can write..., the new Chief of General Staff, General Richthofen, employs people in an eclectic way."
"Bismarck, are you crazy?
Does it mean that we still need to praise them?"
Moltke jumped up immediately when he heard Bismarck's words.
"Sit down first and listen to what Bismarck has to say." Frederick knew Bismarck very well. He was a mature guy.
He would never do such boring things as praising his political opponents!
"The reason why we did this will make people feel that it was arranged by Winter and his group.
And they won’t doubt us!
At the same time, it is also perfect evidence for us to attack them.
Next, we must mobilize the army and launch operations on the front line as soon as possible.
After all, with so many troops on the front line, the supplies and food consumed every day amount to a huge amount of money.
If the consumption continues like this, the finances will definitely not be able to bear it." At this point, Bismarck glanced at Moltke disdainfully.
"Hmm! To maintain one or several hundred thousand people in distant Russia is indeed very financially demanding."
Frederick nodded and motioned for Bismarck to continue.
"A lot of supplies have been accumulated on the front line, and they must launch a military attack no matter what.
but……!
General Moltke, you are the former Chief of General Staff.
Do you think you can win even if you launch a big battle?"
Bismarck looked at Moltke and asked.
"In the frontline trenches, most of them are Russian soldiers.
These people are easy to deal with!
As long as there are enough supplies and troops, it is not difficult to break through their front.
The difficulty lies in...!"
"There are people from Ming Dynasty!"
"right!
The Ming army is very difficult to deal with!
The planes in the sky give our army no secrets. If you are not careful, you will be bombarded by the planes.
Tanks on the ground can be very effective against our moving troops.
Although the rocket launchers and anti-tank grenades invented by the Ming Dynasty are very useful.
However, it has to be very close to the tank.
Most people will be killed by machine guns before they reach this distance.
Sometimes, even if it takes a company or even a battalion, it may not be possible to destroy a tank.
Because the tanks of the Ming army all operated in groups.
Moreover, they are usually accompanied by a large number of infantry.
Those infantrymen also rode in iron vehicles. They called those vehicles armored vehicles!
The only difference between it and a tank is whether it has a gun or not!
Our machine guns, grenades, and almost all infantry individual weapons cannot penetrate armored vehicles.
Relying on this advantage, the Ming army can cut our troops in action into several sections.
Then……!
Then there is no more!
The siege of Vyazma is a typical example.
More than 100,000 people can only last three to five days."
