Chapter 792 Several Resolutions on the Eastern Front Issue 1

"I think it is not necessary to do nothing for hundreds of thousands of troops. As allies, we should help the Austro-Hungarian Empire overcome this crisis. Fritz must bear the consequences of neglecting us, but I do not want such a fight to continue military." At the end of the letter, Prince Leopold put forward his own ideas in a rather obscure way.

Prince Leopold is a soldier, a pure soldier. He does not like politics, and he does not want political issues to affect military judgments. Many German officers of this era are still very conscientious. Prince Leopold is unwilling to let political differences lead to tens of thousands of lives disappearing like this.

So he not only reminded Fritz again, but also hoped that the prince could be more open-minded and that when there were major problems in the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the prince could lend a helping hand.

The army serves politics. Although Prince Leopold temporarily ruled the two armies under the prince, the order given to him was defense. Therefore, even if Fritz sent a telegram for help, the two legions could not leave the garrison without the prince's consent.

In fact, although the two legions have strong strength, overall, they have enough strength to defend themselves and have insufficient progress! Although there are many 500,000 people (including the Prince's troops on the Western Front), the prince cannot conquer the world with only 500,000 people! If the troops want to expand their troops, what should those newcomers do after the expansion? Of course, veterans and experienced officers are required to lead them, so many officers and veterans are drawn from the original troops to add new troops, and then gradually form combat power.

The situation in Mackenson in the north was not very good, and East Prussia could not be lost, but the prince's next step was to open up the situation in East Prussia. Therefore, after obtaining the consent of the German Emperor, Bavaria had three divisions of troops temporarily entered the Mackenson Corps to assist in the defense.

In order to meet the blood draw in the Western Front Battle, some corps entered East Prussia, and in addition to training the personnel transferred from the recruits, they also had to defend the newly captured areas. At least before the prince brought the Western Front Corps and the Air Force back, the Bavarian corps were not suitable for launching a large-scale attack. Prince Leopold calculated that if he had to assist the Austro-Hungarian Empire, he could only get out immediately, two of which were the Czechs in Bohemia.

What is the level of 4 divisions? About 80,000 people. Is there more than 80,000 people? How do you say this? In terms of quantity, it is indeed quite a lot, but in the Russian records, Austria-Hungary sent 400,000 in a battle in the Battle of Galicia, a war, and Austro-Hungary, there are really not many people... Think about it, the two sides, together with nearly 2 million troops, launched a melee on a front that lasted hundreds of kilometers. However, the troops wanted to control the situation, at most, there was a local improvement.

"Although Fritz has some small ideas, he is definitely not a mediocre political talent. Of course, more importantly, he can't live long. The throne of the Austro-Hungarian Empire has not been decided, and Mary and Carl both seem to have a chance to outsiders..." In his study, Rupresit began to weigh the pros and cons like a politician.

Whether or not he can finally ascend the throne is based on Fritz's attitude, and on the other hand, on the other hand, on the recognition of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The emperor's attitude is not irrelevant, because it seems neutral from the moment, and he did not directly designate Carl's inheritance as in history, because it is considered the prince's attitude. However, in military terms, Carl is inclined to give the other party a chance to prove himself. Both sides are taking a balanced route.

As for the recognition of the Austro-Hungarian Empire? This is relatively empty, but very important! What the prince needs is a stable Austria, an Austria that can be united, rather than a conspiracy, and a hodgepodge of Bavaria, Austria and the Czech Republic! It is absolutely impossible to have no saber and money, but it is not enough if there is only violence and money! The prince must try every means to improve his family's prestige in the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and must gain the recognition of the Austrian Germans and the Czechs!

Therefore, for Fritz, the prince could play tricks with him, but the result of this method would never affect the attitude of the Austrians towards him! So in this sense, it is absolutely unreasonable that the Austro-Hungarian Legion fought hard in Galicia, and it was absolutely unreasonable to hold hundreds of thousands of troops but not participate in the war...

From the overall perspective, watching the four Austro-Hungarian army be destroyed by half and then clean up the mess is definitely a loss-making business. Therefore, reinforcements are necessary and assistance is also necessary, but it depends on the time and specific means!

It is impossible to launch an offensive battle, and the time is too late. At the same time, without preparation, neither the Austro-Hungarian Legion nor the Bavarian Legion could launch a large-scale attack. Now most of the cars and tanks produced in Bavaria are heading to the Western Front, and the inventory of the front-line troops is more than enough defense and insufficient offense. Moreover, the troops drawn in haste are limited.

So the prince directly chose to skip the stage of the attack between the Austro-Hungarian Army and the Russian army. He planned to repel the attack of the Austro-Hungarian Army, and the latter was forced to choose defense before making reinforcements. At this time, Fritz should have realized the huge gap between the two sides. When he knew that his fists were not hard enough, the Austrian Emperor was still easy to talk to!

The time has been selected, so what should the troops do? To be honest, now both the prince and Prince Leopold are used to fighting under the cover of tanks and planes. This is like playing war3, and they are used to the human race's three-book stream. The player of Dark Night Bear Deer suddenly let him fight 2 break-off male and female witch or Ac Bird Deer. He is completely unacceptable, okay!

The current situation is that whether it is tanks, aircraft, or a large number of trucks, they are almost concentrated on the Western Front. It is impossible to transfer them back, so they can only aggrieved Prince Leopold to play with infantry cannons and cooperate in combat... As for the issue of military strength, it is also a troublesome thing.

The Bavarian Legion and Bohemia Legion had a total of 500,000 troops on the front line (not counting the personnel who established new troops in the rear.), with about 25 divisions. Among them, the prince brought 3 armored divisions and 1 mechanized infantry division and other auxiliary troops on the Western Front, which was nearly 120,000. Among the remaining 380,000 troops, three divisions, that is, 60,000 in East Prussia, and there were still 320,000. If you ensure that the current defense line is at least 240,000, that is, 12 divisions can be used to cover the defense line and maintain sufficient reserves. This is how the remaining 4 divisions that can be called can be calculated.

Even if the prince agrees, Prince Leopold will have only this mobile force before the prince's elite corps returns to the Eastern Front, or before the new wave of recruits completes training. The time for the prince to return to the Eastern Front is still to be determined, and it will take about 3 to 4 weeks for the recruits to complete the training. If you wait for this long, the daylily will be cold!
