Germanic Empire: Please call me Wilhelm III

“Your Excellency Commander, we completely annihilated the main forces of the 1st Army of the Tsarist Army, except for a few cavalry units that escaped, the rest of the troops were annihilated by us. In this great war, we annihilated up to 400,000 people in the Russian army. More than 300,000 prisoners were captured alone. Next, the entire East Prussian region had to find a way to establish more prisoner-of-war camps. Major General McHoffman had a smile on his face.

“Your Excellency Commander, the losses of the 9th Army of the Imperial Army in this battle are not large, and we only need to rest for a few days before we can enter a new battle. The Russians were badly damaged by us, and now is a good opportunity for us to take the initiative and strike beyond the borders of the country and into the territory of the Tsarist Empire! General von Prittowitz suggested.

General Hindenburg nodded: “Let the troops rest first.” Then, report our results to His Majesty the Emperor. We have more battles to fight. His Majesty the Emperor has decided to launch a large-scale counterattack on the Eastern Front, preparing to knock down the entire Russian Bolan region! General Hindenburg said.

General von Prittwitz and Major General Maxhoffmann were both eye-catching.

“Your Excellency Commander, after we ate the two armies of the Tsarist Empire, the strength of the Russian army in the entire Dutch Bolan region is already very limited. In addition to some local garrisons, only the 9th Army of the Tsarist Army remained. Together with the 10th Army, we can completely defeat the Russian Bolan region. In this way, the border between us and the Russian Empire can be drawn in a straight line. East Prussia will no longer be a bulge, and there is no need to worry about being besieged by the Russians! General von Prittowitz said.

“The 10th Army has the remaining tasks, and the Southwestern Army Group of the Tsarists is so large that it is difficult for our allies to cope. The 10th Army, on its part, must be ready to reinforce our allies. However, among the newly formed units of the Imperial Army, the 11th Army and the 12th Army will fall to the Eastern Front to assist us temporarily. Wait until we have defeated the Russian Bolan and then deploy the troops as appropriate. General Hindenburg said.

Although the 11th Army and the 12th Army were newly formed, they were not equipped with armored units. However, it was enough to deal with the Tsarist Russians. We gathered three army groups and had no problem at all in beating the Russian subordinate Bolan! Maj. Gen. McHoffman said.

General Hindenburg nodded: “After beating the Russian subordinate Bolan, almost winter has already arrived.” We have to be prepared for the winter. Although, the Tsarist Russians are a little more hardy than we are. However, in the big winter, they could not launch a large-scale attack. The entire battlefield on the Eastern Front will fall silent, and next spring, a big war will break out! ”

Next, the 9th Army of the Germanic Imperial Army began to rest and prepare for the next offensive.

The 11th Army and the 12th Army of the Germanic Imperial Army were also transferred to the Eastern Front by rail, preparing to participate in the battles on the Eastern Front.

The Germanic Empire was about to launch a massive counterattack on the Eastern Front.

Tsarist Empire, Petersburg, Winter Palace.

Tsar Nicholas II had learned of the defeat of Army Group Northwest , which made Nicholas II very angry.

“Bastard! Are the guys on the front line all a herd of pigs? We had twice the superiority of the Germans, but we were easily defeated by the Germans. Is the gap between us and the Germans really that big? Are our troops so vulnerable? Nicholas II cursed.

You know, the two armies of the Northwest Army Group are the standing armies of the Tsarist Army!

Whether it is equipment or the quality of individual soldiers, they are much stronger than those troops that have just been mobilized.

However, even the standing army is so vulnerable. Then, it can be seen how big the gap between the Russian army and the German Imperial Army is. Even if the Russian Empire could mobilize a large army next. But can these rabble be opponents of the Germanic Imperial Army? That is obviously unrealistic.

Nicholas II was originally very confident in this great war.

He firmly believed that under the siege of their three major powers, he would be able to defeat the Germanic Empire. However, the strength of the German Imperial Army, or the Tsarist Russian Army was too bad, made him extremely worried.

This war, he also does not want to lose. If it loses, the Russian Empire will suffer a heavy blow.

The Russian Empire was already a clay-footed giant. Not only is industrial strength incomparable to other powers. There are still many contradictions and problems in China.

Originally, he also wanted to use this war to cover up internal contradictions with external contradictions. But if you fail on the battlefield. I am afraid that it is impossible to cover up the internal contradictions, and it will make the internal contradictions more prominent. At that time, I am afraid that the Russian Empire will be finished!

“Your Majesty, we have to admit that the Germanic Imperial Army is really strong. According to the retreating generals, the Germans had a strong firepower and were armed with a large number of artillery and machine guns. In addition, they were supported by a large number of aircraft during the battle. In contrast, we are much worse. In addition to this, the Germans used a new weapon on the battlefield, an armored combat vehicle, which could not be penetrated by bullets at all. This made it impossible for our soldiers to stop the Germanic attack. General Sukhomlinov explained.

“Abominable! These are all excuses. I don’t want to know the process, I just need to know the final result! Nicholas II said exasperatedly.

“Those defeated generals, all severely punished!” Nicholas II ordered.

“Your Majesty, General Samsonov has died in battle, but General Leinenkamp has fled back. And General Zhilinsky, still in birch. General Sukhomlinov said.

“Your Majesty, I am afraid that now is not the time to hold accountable for the defeat. The total annihilation of the 1st Army and the 2nd Army dealt a great blow to our deployment at the front. Originally, we deployed ten army groups and more than two million troops on the front line. Of these, seven armies of the main force were deployed in the southwestern army group, ready to attack Austria-Hungary. Only three army groups were used to defend against the Germans. But now, only the 9th Army remained. If the Germans take the initiative to attack, the situation will be very unfavorable for us. The commander-in-chief of the Russian army, Grand Duke Nicholas, reminded.
