"The rebel forces seemed to have entered a defensive state, and they did not take the initiative to attack, although they had an advantage." The two sides did not fight in the first day of their encounter. Bühler chose to be more conservative because they did not have aerial reconnaissance power. Little Moltke's troops gathered in a hilly area, and they could be attacked by hidden artillery and machine guns. Little Moltke, as the weaker side of the army and firepower, had no reason to attack. He was considering mobilizing new troops from the Grand Duchy of Baden.

However, on the next day, the troops of both sides finally exchanged fire. Buller, who had the advantage of military strength and mobility, chose to send an army equipped with armored vehicles to detour the supply line of the rear of the Moltke army to launch an attack. Bullerka's position was very good, just so that the opposite Moltke could not build a defense line based on the villages and towns. At the same time, he was squeezed from the road to the wilderness, and transportation and supply were both problems.

At least 1,500 soldiers and 140 various vehicles were mobilized. They bypassed the Moltke's defense line and then ambushed the logistics convoy along the line. Relying on superior machine guns and machine guns, they could quickly suppress the firepower of the defensive party. The battle between the two sides can be described as one-sided. From the first shell flying out to the end of the war, it usually takes no more than half an hour!

At the end of the first day of the battle, the troops responsible for attacking the traffic line not only filled the loss, but also made a lot more. The price paid was only the result of more than 20 deaths and more than 40 injuries. After all, the army of the Grand Duchy of Baden was not large, and it was already a short time limit to be able to get the little Mocha regiment. Therefore, the combat effectiveness of the logistics troops should not be too high.

However, it is naturally impossible for Xiao Moltke to be koreed by this trick. He made full use of the reconnaissance aircraft provided by the Grand Duchy of Baden and more than a dozen various aircraft supported from the front line to form two units of reconnaissance and harassment. With the help of the Hawkeye in the Air, the guerrillas who lacked air experience naturally did not know how to effectively hide themselves. Under the guidance of the reconnaissance aircraft, Xiao Moltke also used the mobile forces in his hands to launch a very successful encirclement and suppression of the parliamentary army deep in his rear!

With the similar strength and strength of both sides, the gap in combat quality of the troops is reflected. Although Xiao Moltke has the advantage of taking the lead, he was also discovered before taking over the enemy. Then the two sides almost fought an encounter on the edge of a small town! Xiao Moltke 1,200 people dealt with the opponent 1,400 people. The number of armored vehicles was 30 to 55. In the end, Xiao Moltke's troops killed and captured more than 800 people at the cost of 300 casualties, and in the end, less than 400 people broke through on a scale. The losses ratio of armored vehicles units was as high as 1 to 3!

Then, Moltke, who won the first victory, was a little confident and felt that the opponent was just like this. So with air support, he launched a large-scale attack on the fifth day after the two sides met! However, how to say, this time the two sides played a fair match!

It has to be said that the combat quality of the little Moltke's troops is indeed quite good. At the darkest time before dawn, the commando under Xiao Moltke had already cleared the minefield on the offensive road. The artillery and engineers also moved to the position before departure. More than a dozen airplanes of the Air Force arrived at the battlefield on time. At dawn, Xiao Moltke took the initiative to launch an attack!

At the beginning, Moltke's corps successfully tore open the opponent's outermost defense lines and put a few wedges on the main defense line. However, when the air support was over, Buller's artillery fully played its role, and more than a dozen howitzers with a caliber of more than 100mm roared towards the offensive troops, and successfully used their range advantage to blow the offensive formation into two pieces.

The soldiers from both sides fought in the trenches. Xiao Moltke once again took out his elite armored troops to try to break the deadlock, but was blocked by the opponent's war defense artillery. Then the crickets and hornets under Buller successfully launched a counterattack, causing Xiao Moltke's troops to lose at least one dozen tanks and assault guns.

The two sides fought many casualties in the frontal position war for the first time. Moltke was unable to attack again. The parliament, which suffered huge casualties, sent new recruits to look at the trenches like a slaughterhouse and breathe the air full of blood and smoke. The morale was absolutely not high. The two boxers decided to stop temporarily after conducting the first round of tests. Moltke's troops took advantage of the night to withdraw from the position. Buller, who had regained the defense line, also began to strengthen the defense line.

At this time, behind the front-line troops of both sides, the reinforcements prepared by Grand Duke Baden for Moltke were ready to go. In terms of size, there were about 20,000 people, and they were equipped with some tanks and heavy howitzers. What about Buller? His reinforcements were also quite large, and they adhered to the characteristics of the first wave of his own troops. The combat effectiveness was not high, but the equipment was really good. With the help of some workshop owners, some heavy equipment that was about to be completed was quickly completed. In the second wave of reinforcements, Buller could obtain about a reorganized battalion of hornet assault guns and cricket tanks. At the same time, some air forces finally agreed to send combat for parliament. Starting from the seventh day of the encounter between the two sides, Little Moltke's air force was no longer the only master of the air!

"Start digging trenches!" When the tenth day after the two sides met, and after the attack failed again, the former chief of staff of the German General Staff, the general who had commanded millions of troops, finally issued an order to defend his troops. At this time, on the front line, the army of both sides combined was nearly 60,000. The scale of the battle gradually expanded, but the front line between the two sides had almost never moved much.

After all, the parliamentary faction occupies one of the most important parts of Prussia, and only the vehicles and tanks waiting for the final equipment in the factory can arm an army. Although the Rhine Ruhr area is powerful, it must first support the battle on the Western Front. At this time, the German Emperor, who had arrived at the unstable army, naturally did not dare to easily reduce the rations of the Western Front troops. Otherwise, if the commanders of the major armies expressed dissatisfaction, it would not be a joke. It would be much more difficult to rely solely on the Grand Duchy of Baden!

Xiao Moltke realized that he could not break the deadlock on the front battlefield in a short period of time. By the same token, Buller also realized that his troops were useless. It was okay to let them squat in the trenches and offensives to fight defensive wars, but if you want to charge, then forget it. In private, he had said more than once that the 30,000 troops in his hands could not even get a reliable Storm Assault Battalion......
