Germanic Empire: Please call me Wilhelm III

Compared with Schlieffen’s plan to blindly seek speed, he hopes to win the battle on the Western Front in the shortest possible time and win the entire war.

But August wanted to destroy the enemy’s living forces on the battlefield as much as possible, so as to establish victory.

As the so-called “land loses, everyone loses land.” Anyone loses land, everyone and land survive! ”

Whether it is the Gallic Kingdom or the Sun Never Sets Empire, the number of troops that can be mobilized is very limited.

The Gallic state had less than 40 million men, and mobilized up to 4 million troops. And the Sun Never Sets Empire only has a population of more than 40 million, how many troops can it mobilize?

In addition, the Sun Never Sets Empire still has vast colonies to guard, and there are mainland lands to defend, and how many expeditionary forces can be sent to fight on the European continent?

Once their main force was dealt a devastating blow within the Kingdom of Bilis. Then, they will be hit hard. If you want to resist the attack of the Germanic Empire again, the difficulty can be imagined.

What’s more, August is well aware that under the existing scientific and technological situation, it is undoubtedly very difficult to win this war quickly. This great war is destined to be a protracted war.

However, compared with another time and space, the war lasted a full four years before it ended with the collapse of the Germanic Empire. In this time and space, the Germanic Empire was ready for everything and more powerful. If you can end the war in two years, it will already be very good.

August did not want the army to attack quickly, causing problems in the battle, and thus losing the war. In that case, the Germanic Empire would undoubtedly pay a greater price.

“Your Majesty, if we are not able to defeat the Gallic Kingdom as soon as possible and win the battlefield on the Western Front. Then, we will be in a two-front battle for a long time. This will be very detrimental for us. After all, our forces are equally inadequate. Admiral Moltke Jr. reminded.

All along, after he came to power, he revised on the basis of the Schlieffen plan, but did not think of completely changing the Schlieffen plan.

August nodded: “Two-front combat is inevitable for the empire. The empire is located in central Europe, surrounded by enemies. Once war breaks out, it will inevitably be attacked by the enemy from both sides. However, I don’t think that’s the biggest problem. The biggest problem is that the empire must do everything in its power to win this war.

As for the shortage of troops, once the war breaks out, the empire will begin to carry out a general mobilization of the whole country, and mobilize enough troops on a large scale. The strategic reserve system of the empire has been completed and has a large number of resources, which will not be a factor that restricts the mobilization of the empire. After the start of the war, the Imperial Army will quickly mobilize a hundred infantry divisions to form ten army groups again.

With these troops, whether they were put into the Eastern Front or the Western Front, the Empire had enough troops. At that time, the empire will naturally not be afraid of fighting on two fronts.

As long as the imperial army can constantly annihilate the enemy’s living forces on the battlefield. The enemy’s war potential will become weaker and weaker. This will be very conducive to the empire to win this war. In particular, relatively sparsely populated countries such as the Gallic State and the Empire of the Sun Never Set could not withstand such consumption. At that time, the empire will also soon be able to win this war! ”

August’s words made General Moltke Jr. and the generals of the army fall into deep thought.

Admiral Moltke Jr. even discussed with Admiral von Falkenhein in a whisper, as if discussing whether to revise Schlieffen’s plan again.

“I think His Majesty the Emperor’s point is correct, if we can’t annihilate the main forces of the Gauls and the Sunseters, then we have penetrated the Kingdom of Biliz and invaded the territory of the Kingdom of Gaul. Even if we take Barri, as long as the Gauls still have sufficient troops, they may not surrender. In this way, the war will continue. If we wanted to defeat them quickly, we naturally couldn’t achieve it. At that time, we will also face the unfavorable situation of fighting on two fronts.

On the contrary, if we take as the core the living forces of the Gauls and the sunseters, it only takes one or two large-scale battles to annihilate their main forces. So, will the Gauls still be able to withstand our attack? The whole of Gaul can no longer resist us. Even if they want to continue fighting, they don’t have enough strength to fight!

At that time, we will naturally be able to win the war! ”

Lieutenant General Ludendorff, deputy chief of the General Staff and director of the Panzer Corps, said.

The other army generals also nodded in agreement.

“Your Majesty, if this is the case, then let’s revise the plan!” Admiral Moltke Jr. said.

“Now that the war has not broken out, we still have enough time!” August said.

Subsequently, the General Staff of the Germanic Empire decided to revise the Schlieffen Plan again, and the revised Schlieffen Plan was called the New Schlieffen Plan.

In the new Schlieffen plan, the first goal will be to annihilate the living forces of the Gallic Kingdom and the Empire of the Sun Never Sets, so that the battle can be won once and for all.

If we say that the previous Schlieffen plan was to seek speed and win surprisingly. The new Schlieffen plan, then, is to seek stability and ensure victory.

In the New Schlieffen Plan, two large-scale battles were planned to complete the goal of annihilating the main forces of the Gallic Kingdom and the Empire of the Rising Sun. The first battle was fought in the Kingdom of Bilise. In the course of the Germanic Empire’s storming of the Kingdom of Bilis, it attracted the Gallic Kingdom to reinforce the Kingdom of Billis. Then, annihilate their main forces here.

The second battle was held in the north of Gaul, where it was prepared to destroy the main forces of the Gallic Kingdom and the Imperial Expeditionary Force, thus completely laying the foundation for victory.

August also appointed the commanders of the next ten armies of the Germanic Imperial Army, the commander of the 1st Army was General Kluk, the commander of the 2nd Army was General Bilo, the commander of the 3rd Army was General Ludendorf, the commander of the 4th Army General Hausen, the commander of the 5th Army was Duke Württemberg, the commander of the 6th Army Prince Ruprecht, the commander of the 7th Army was General Waldzer, the commander of the 8th Army was General Mavits, and the commander of the 9th Army was General Hindenburg, The commander of the 10th Army was General François.
