Age of Rebirth

After listening to Hitler's words, Tang Qiuli hesitated for a moment. He didn't expect that Hitler would cut straight to the point and go straight to the point. The scope of this issue was too big and too wide. For a while, he didn't know where to start!

You can't just say, "This Barbarossa plan is not feasible, you should die as soon as possible!" You have to have a basis for your words, and you want to persuade Hitler to give up the Barbarossa plan that has been prepared for half a year to attack the Soviet Union. It is not a simple one or two sentences that can be moved.

Tang Qiuli's hesitation, in Hitler's eyes, made him mistakenly think that there are some things that are inconvenient to say directly, or because of his own feelings, because of Goering's troubles at the welcome banquet last night, Maybe my old friend has scruples in his heart and doesn't want to speak out.

Hitler was secretly anxious. In all fairness, Tang Qiuli's opinion was absolutely important to him. This has been proved from several predictions on the European battlefield. Although his old friend is young, his strategic vision , insights into the situation on the battlefield, and predictions of events that haven't happened have all achieved amazing accuracy. Sometimes, I really make myself jealous.

Hitler said sincerely, "Old friend, the main purpose of inviting you to visit secretly this time is to listen to your opinions for this Barbarossa plan. I am also conflicted in my heart. After all, Soviet Russia is a big country with a vast territory. Soviet Russia, Germany wants to use more than 80.00% of its troops and resources, you may wish to be blunt, if it is this plan, it is not feasible at all, I will modify it according to your opinion!" [

For the sake of talking, Tang Qiuli couldn't keep silent. Fortunately, Hitler's words gave him an entry point, which was the Barbarossa plan itself.

Tang Qiuli thought for a while, and said: "Your Excellency, as far as the Barbarossa plan itself is concerned, it is impeccable. I admire the officers of your country's General Staff, their superb military skills, and the rigor and scientific level of planning. According to this plan, the German army will achieve jaw-dropping results in the early and middle stages of the war!"

Hitler's brown eyeballs rolled a few times, and he could hear the meaning of Tang Qiuli's words, and he couldn't help asking in doubt: "Old friend, why is it in the early and middle stages of the war? The German army will achieve unimaginable Victory, what about the later stages of the war? What kind of result will it be?"

Tang Qiuli sorted out his thoughts and replied: "The purpose of the war is to achieve the result you want. The result the head of state wants is to quickly defeat the Soviets, occupy the entire territory of the Soviet Union, and completely destroy the country. erase!"

Hitler nodded and replied: "Needless to say, I have never had a good impression of the Russians. The people living in that land are all ugly gorillas. To be honest, they don't deserve to own that resource-rich and vast land." .”

Tang Qiuli sighed inwardly, "Here we go again. Is war a war? Why is racial discrimination involved? It seems that Hitler wants to attack the Soviets. Not only because of the original intention of territorial expansion, but also because of racial discrimination." The idea of ​​discrimination is in it, this is not easy to solve, if it is purely a war issue, it can be solved, Nai. The German head of state is a fanatical racist."

Tang Qiuli went on to say: "If you want to end the war against the Soviets quickly, then the German army must adopt the blitzkrieg method that has been proven in practice, and the problem arises. The territory of the Soviet Union spans across Europe. and the Asian continent, nearly ten million square kilometers, the strategic depth is huge, and the strategic maneuvering space is vast.”

"Using blitzkrieg, the German army can achieve satisfactory results in the early and middle stages of the war, and the losses of the Soviet army will also be great. However, as the battlefield gradually develops towards the inland of the Soviet Union, the front line is stretched sharply. Your Excellency the Fuhrer, You will find that more than 500 million elite German troops are deployed on the vast Soviet territory, and there are too many main targets to capture, and the strength of the troops will be stretched."

"The core purpose of the blitzkrieg is to use the armored assault capabilities of the German army to master the air supremacy of the air superiority, penetrate the Soviets' defense lines one after another at the fastest speed, and quickly seize their strategic points and major cities. There is a Chinese saying The idiom is called one bang, then decline, and three exhaustion, no matter how sharp the attack arrow is, after several months or even longer of continuous combat, the sharpness will also falter and lose its attack power!"

"With the continuous consumption of combat materials and the limited extension of the logistics supply line, you will find that it is not only the resistance of the Soviets or the increasing casualties that restrict the attack speed of the troops, but mechanized equipment and lack of fuel supplies. Factors such as the lack of medical supplies for the front-line troops and the troubles caused, all practical difficulties will force the German army to slow down its attack speed!"

"It's not that they don't want to attack, but that they lack follow-up attack power. In this case, serious problems will arise, and the Soviets will have a chance to breathe. That centralized country will wake up from the initial panic. The huge The state machinery is activated, and the continuous flow of human and material resources will quickly make up for the loss of the Soviets in the early stages of the war."

"When the German army is fully replenished and the attack is launched again, you will find that you will face a new and powerful opponent. This cycle continues, Your Excellency, how many war resources does Germany have that can provide a protracted war of attrition? Moreover, once the Soviet Union, a behemoth, recovers from the initial heavy damage, it will inevitably launch a fierce counterattack."

"In every attack direction of the Barbarossa plan, there will be repeated tug-of-war and entanglement. At that time, Your Excellency the Fuhrer will be in a dilemma. He can't quickly defeat the Soviets, and he can't get out of the Soviet battlefield. The elite of the German army The power is being restrained or consumed on the Soviet battlefield, and the consequences of that are the most terrifying!"

"Therefore, the blitzkrieg, which the German army is best at, will encounter practical difficulties when it is applied to the vast Soviet Union. The key point is that the Soviets have a huge strategic space. They can retreat hundreds or even thousands of kilometers and rebuild their defense lines. , Your Excellency the Führer, I am by no means alarmist!"

Tang Qiuli's analysis was meticulous, as if he was going to rehearse the war against the Soviet Union in advance, and the result he got was unacceptable to Hitler. Eyes straightened, he said nothing, obviously still shocked by the terrifying prospect Tang Qiuli described.

Tang Qiuli had a panoramic view of Hitler's reaction, and knew that his own words had had some effect, but it was far from enough. It didn't wake up the German head of state who was going smoothly, and struck while the iron was hot. Why not add another dose!

Tang Qiuli's tone became more and more calm, but what he said was merciless, "Germany is stuck in a stalemate on the Soviet battlefield, and most of its troops, materials and resources have to deal with this bad state. And the service, however, there is a greater threat, I believe that Germany's outstanding generals and field marshals, even including His Excellency the Führer, have not yet realized it!"

Hitler was in a trance. To be honest, Tang Qiuli's words were a great blow to his confidence. He couldn't believe the terrible results his old friend described for him, but Tang Qiuli's words couldn't be refuted. To put it another way, Tang Qiuli just expressed his personal views and judgments on the Soviet war at his own repeated request. He could not listen to it, or it was just as a reference!

There was a reason why Hitler was unwilling to believe it, because, since the outbreak of the European war, the German intelligence agencies had strengthened the collection of intelligence on all aspects of the Soviet Union. The German intelligence agencies, especially the Overseas Intelligence Agency, gave the head of state said: "The Soviet Union went through several major purges by Stalin in the 30s, especially the purges of senior military commanders." [

"In the Soviet army, experienced commanders were almost all purged. Those who took command positions were political workers who lacked command experience and talent. The morale of the Soviet army was extremely low. rule, great dissatisfaction, domestic unrest, and, within the Soviet Union, latent elements brewing against the tyranny of the Bolsheviks."

According to the German intelligence agency, the Soviet Union is like a powder keg full of public grievances. As long as the great German army ignites a fuse, the Soviets who are dissatisfied with the tyranny of the Bolsheviks will respond in groups. Flowers, songs and dances, food and drink, to welcome the liberators, the seemingly mighty red empire of the Soviet Union will collapse or even collapse. This should be the most important catalyst for the launch of the "Barbarossa Project"!

Moreover, the German intelligence agency also gave Hitler a jurisprudential statement, "The great German army attacked the Soviet Union, not to invade, but to liberate the Soviet people and rescue the Soviet people from the red tyranny of the Bolsheviks."

This statement is ridiculous and absurd. It obviously has the meaning of being in favor of the Fuhrer, but Hitler is proud of it. The intelligence agency's statement is just right where he scratches. Your Excellency, the Fuhrer, is a fanatical racist. , with the mission of a pure race, which can be seen from his ruthless treatment of the Jews and his insistence on exterminating them.

In Hitler's mind, the intelligence of the intelligence agency was intertwined with Tang Qiuli's almost cruel analysis and judgment, and the thinking of His Excellency Führer was like a mess. Before he could figure it out, Tang Qiuli Another sensational bomb was thrown, and Hitler's already muddy head almost stopped thinking!

Is there anything more terrifying than carrying out "Project Barbarossa," a war against the Soviets?

Hitler asked almost subconsciously: "Old friend, is there a greater threat? What is it?"
