Chapter 244(2/2)
"Commander, there is nothing we can do. We only have two divisions in hand and cannot resist this Ming army at all.
According to the news coming back from the front, we actually discovered them at four o'clock in the afternoon.
When the messenger brought the news back, it was already eight o'clock in the evening.
Moreover, news came back from the front one after another that although it was dark, the Ming army tank unit was still advancing. However, the advance was slower.
I think they are coming to Minsk."
Chief of Staff Kravchuk looked at the map and carefully reminded Commander Budordovsky.
"You mean, they came straight to us?" Budoldovsky was shocked. He didn't expect the Ming army to be so crazy. They came up with a black tiger trick and directly sent the tank troops.
Minsk.
You know, it is more than 300 kilometers from the front line to Minsk.
Moreover, three divisions of German troops were stationed north of Minsk.
A troop traveled 300 kilometers and went straight to the enemy's headquarters. This was simply a crazy act of suicide.
No one with military knowledge would do this!
No one knows why the always fierce Ming army would make such a stupid move. However, now it seems that this seemingly stupid move will kill Budoldovsky.
"Commander, I think we should retreat as soon as possible." Kravchuk carefully suggested to Budordovsky.
The reason why he was careful was because a telegram had just arrived from Warsaw, asking Budoldowski to counterattack. Now not only was he unable to counterattack, but the general command post was destroyed.
If Warsaw knew about this, it is difficult to say whether Budoldowski would be executed on the spot.
And he, the chief of staff who is responsible for coming up with ideas, will definitely not get any good results.
"No, if we lose Minsk we will be doomed. Not only will the frontline troops be doomed, but after the Ming army has rested and reorganized, the next target will be Warsaw.
Kravchuk, your suggestion will kill you and me, and our families will be exiled." Budordovsky shook his head helplessly.
The consequences of losing Minsk were too serious, and he did not dare to make this decision.
"But if we don't retreat, we won't survive either. We only have two divisions in hand, plus a guard regiment with all light weapons.
These troops cannot stop the Ming army tanks.
Besides..., Minsk is located in a plain, and there is no terrain advantage that can withstand the impact of tanks."
"No!" Budordovsky shook his head.
"Why……!
Then there is only one way!" Kravchuk sighed helplessly.
"I know, you mean to ask for help from the Germans? But there are a lot of rumors now..."
"Are you worried that... there are rumors that Germany has made peace with the Ming Dynasty?
But now, if we don't ask for help from them, there is no way we can stop the Ming army.
Since we can’t abandon Minsk, we still have a chance of survival if we ask for help. If we don’t ask for help, we can only wait to be killed or captured by the Ming army.”
Kravchuk spread his hands helplessly. Anyway, he told the commander the direction of the matter, so he was worthy of his responsibility as chief of staff.
Budordovsky thought for a while and decided to ask for help from the German army for a last-ditch effort.
Minsk cannot be lost. If Minsk is lost, I will not survive anyway.
"Okay, go see the German commander General Clark in person and ask them to help us defend Minsk!
The Ming army came from afar, and the logistics supplies would definitely not be able to keep up.
As long as we withstand the first wave of attacks, we will be able to defend Minsk. And it is possible to counterattack the Ming army that came from afar.
In addition, order the frontline troops to withdraw across the entire line. Withdraw to the Minsk front line. As long as they can come back, heavy equipment can be abandoned."
Budoldowski slammed his fist on the desk. In fact, the Polish army on the front line now does not have much heavy equipment.
Many divisions even have only a few mortars left. And the mortars don’t have many shells!
