There are two reasons why Joseph I wanted to help Germany. First, the Austro-Hungarian Empire bordered Germany, and there were many German-speaking areas in the bordering areas. These German-speaking areas also had the momentum of independence. Joseph I hoped to help Germany in exchange for Germany not supporting German. District independence.

Second, Ukraine borders Romania, Hungary, and Slovakia of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. People in these areas also want independence. Joseph I worried that after Ukraine entered China’s sphere of influence, China would use Ukraine as a base to support the independence of Romania, Hungary, and Slovakia.

Only then did Joseph I dispatch his troops and enter Ukraine to fight with the German army.

The Austro-Hungarian Empire used to have a powerful army, but in recent years, as China under the rule of Lin Yuan continued to come up with new weapons, the world's weapons and equipment have undergone major changes, and countries have incorporated vehicles mainly tanks into the army. Various countries also want to own aircraft and missile warships, but after all, they do not have such strong technical strength and cannot produce these things.

Incorporating vehicles into the army requires a lot of money, but the economic strength of the Austro-Hungarian Empire does not allow them to spend too much money, so their troops are only equipped with some cars and basically no tanks. Joseph I sent out the army to fight for the German army.

At 4 am on April 9, the 9th Division of the Austro-Hungarian Empire entered Ukraine. Although the Austro-Hungarian Empire was a dual empire, the Emperor of Austria held military power, so Joseph I could mobilize troops to participate in the war.

The most important political, economic and cultural center of Ukraine in this era is Kiev, so the competition between the two sides will revolve around Kiev. The whole Ukraine is a plain, so this battle will be an armored offensive and defensive battle in the plain area. It's hard to be a coincidence, and we can only deal with the real thing, head-to-head.

Xiao Moqi didn't dare to let the Austro-Hungarian army rush to the forefront, so he let them be behind the German Second Heavy Armored Division.

On the Chinese side, the 7th Division and the 39th Division went hand in hand. At 4 pm on April 9th, they arrived at the small town of Kuks, 4 kilometers away from Kiev. Xiao Yingwu immediately dispatched drones and dispatched scouts to use all means to conduct reconnaissance. The situation of the enemy.

At this time, China's drones have also been updated. The batch on the Beijing ship can no longer be used. The newly designed drones are equipped with higher-definition cameras and stronger reconnaissance capabilities.

The UAV reconnaissance only found sporadic German tanks, but a large number of German tanks were not found. This is not surprising. It is impossible for the German army to expose the tanks to the Chinese. The sporadic tanks found may also be false targets set by the German army.

Aviation reconnaissance also found a unit ten kilometers behind the German army. Xiao Yingwu was very surprised to see the unit in the photo, because this unit did not pay attention to anti-air reconnaissance, and was discovered by drones.

Xiao Yingwu thought for a while, and decided that this unit had just been mobilized and had not had time to camouflage, so he notified the theater air force and dispatched bombers to bomb this unit.

This army is the army of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Their military quality is also good, and they know that counter-reconnaissance methods should be adopted, but they have just entered Ukraine after all, and they have not yet used their hands to carry out large-scale camouflage.

The bombers of the Chinese Air Force arrived twenty minutes later and dropped bombs over the 25th Division of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. However, these bombs did not cause much damage to the Austro-Hungarian Empire's army, because the killing range of the aerial bombs was after all Limited, the Austro-Hungarian army was deployed and scattered.

Little Maoqi soon received the news that the Austro-Hungarian army was attacked, and he immediately realized that the Chinese army had attacked Ukraine!

Little Maoqi hurriedly reported to Shilieffen, hoping to get an order to take the initiative to attack, but unexpectedly, Shilieffen ordered him to retreat across the board!Not only the withdrawal of troops in Ukraine, including troops stationed in Belarus, Lithuanian troops have withdrawn to Poland.

Although Xiao Maoqi was not reconciled, but he was a strict soldier, he had engraved the word "obedience" into his bone marrow long ago, and immediately ordered to retreat when he heard the order.

As soon as the German army retreated, Xiao Yingwu discovered it. Xiao Yingwu was very surprised. He could not have guessed the strategy of Kaiser Wilhelm II. His first reaction was that the German army wanted to lure the enemy into deep. Report the situation to Lin Yuan, while ordering the troops to stand by.

After receiving Xiao Yingwu's report, Lin Yuan also received intelligence from the direction of Belarus and Lithuania. The intelligence said that the German [-]st and [-]rd Heavy Armored Divisions had also begun to retreat. The retreat is not an isolated action, but the overall action of the German army.

Why did the German army retreat as a whole?Lin Yuan thought of Germany's proposal to own Poland during the negotiations, and then thought of the disastrous defeats suffered by the [-]th and [-]th Heavy Armored Divisions due to insufficient logistics supplies. He immediately understood that Germany wanted to gather troops to Poland and then stick to the Poland.

Lin Yuan immediately instructed Xiao Yingwu to enter Kiev, and at the same time ordered the Fifth and Sixth Divisions of the Siberian Front Army on the Smolensk front to enter Minsk. Renwell talks.

Xiao Yingwu marched immediately after receiving the order. At one o'clock in the morning on April 4, the two divisions encircled the 10th Division of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The 25th Division resisted for less than an hour before the entire army was wiped out.

The soldiers of the 25th Division of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, like the German soldiers, would choose to surrender after losing their combat effectiveness, so many soldiers of the Austro-Hungarian Empire surrendered. After interrogation, the soldiers of the 7th Division found that they turned out to be from the Austro-Hungarian Empire. People, couldn't help being greatly surprised, immediately reported to the superiors, and Xiao Yingwu immediately reported to Lin Yuan after receiving the news.

Lin Yuan was also taken aback when he received the report, wondering why the Austro-Hungarian Empire was involved?The Austro-Hungarian Empire was a big trouble, not because of how powerful it was, but because its domestic situation was too complicated. National, religious, and territorial disputes were complicated. In my time, the First World War was caused by Austria-Hungary The Hungarian Empire rose. After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, the Bosnian War and the Kosovo War broke out here. It is easy for me to take down the Austro-Hungarian Empire, but it is difficult to stabilize it.

Lin Yuan then decided to ignore the Austro-Hungarian Empire and worry about its own affairs. I will stabilize Ukraine first, so Lin Yuan told Xiao Yingwu not to spread the news about the Austro-Hungarian Empire’s dispatch of troops. Just pretend it didn't happen.
