Germanic Empire: Please call me Wilhelm III

Gaul was also a powerful colonial empire.

Even if the overseas colonies they have are not as vast as the Sun Never Set Empire, the resources are not so rich, not so rich.

However, both the size and population of the colony are second only to the Sun Never Set Empire.

This allowed Gaul, in addition to exploiting the vast number of colonial people, but also used the huge population of the colony to arm itself during the war to make them work for the Gall.

Of course, the combat effectiveness of these colonial armies is generally not much expected, at most they can only be used as cannon fodder.

But even then it is much better than having the Gauls as cannon fodder.

It’s just that the wishful thinking of the Gauls is very loud.

But alas, it’s too late.

The Gauls would never have expected how quickly and fiercely the Germanic Empire’s counterattack would be.

So much so that before the Gauls had time to arm the army of the colonies, they were already defeated. Under such circumstances, the armies of those colonies would naturally be useless.

In fact, when the Gallic Army and the Imperial Expeditionary Force launched a long period of counterattacks, but neither was able to break through the German Imperial Army’s defenses.

The General Staff of the Germanic Empire already believed that the time was ripe for a counterattack.

“Your Majesty, the large-scale counterattack launched by the Gauls and the Sun Bu Shu people caused certain casualties to the Imperial Army. Overall, however, it is within acceptable limits. In defensive operations, the powerful firepower superiority of the Imperial Army was brought into full play. The Gauls and the sun never set paid a greater price for this. Moreover, the morale of the Gauls and the sun has already suffered a heavy blow. The Imperial Army can take this opportunity to launch a large-scale counterattack, defeat the Gauls and the Sun on the Western Front in one fell swoop, completely defeat the Gallic State, and lay the foundation for the victory of the Imperial Army on the Western Front! Marshal Moltke Jr. suggested.

“Yes, Your Majesty. Now the time is ripe to launch a counterattack. Otherwise, if time drags on, it will be very unfavorable to us. The Russian Empire was already actively mobilizing troops. According to the judgment of the General Command of the Eastern Front, the Russian Empire is very likely to launch a large-scale attack on the Eastern Front in half a month. We were on the Eastern Front, after all, only four army groups were deployed. War Minister Marshal von Falkenhein said.

August nodded, he also understood the situation.

In the original plan, the Germanic Imperial Army took the lead in launching an attack in the northern part of Gaul, increasing the pressure on the Gauls and the Sunseters, so that the Gauls and the Sunseters concentrated all their main forces on the Marne River defense line, creating favorable conditions for the next large-scale attack of the Germanic Imperial Army and annihilating the main forces of the Gauls and the Sun.

But what they didn’t expect was that the Gauls and the Sunset actually took the lead in launching a counterattack.

This made the Imperial Army have to change its previous battle plan from offensive to defensive. At the same time, defensive operations were also used to deplete the living forces of the Gauls and the sunseters.

Judging from the current situation, this goal has been achieved.

However, the enemies of the Germanic Empire were not only Gauls and Sunseters, but also Tsarist Russians.

The current Germanic Empire fought on two fronts.

Therefore, it is necessary to seize the time to defeat the enemy in one direction first. In this way, you will have no worries about dealing with other enemies. The Germanic Empire will have a greater chance of victory.

From now on, the best time for the Germanic Imperial Army to launch a large-scale counterattack has undoubtedly arrived.

“Are the 7th Army, 8th Army, 13th Army and 16th Army ready?” August asked.

There is no doubt that these four army groups, more than 800,000 men, will be responsible for killing them from the mountains of Afghanistan, penetrating straight into the flanks of the Gauls and the sunseters, and heading straight for the strait.

Form a huge encirclement, encircling the main force of the Gallic Army and the main force of the Imperial Expeditionary Force that never sets.

Cooperate with the frontal offensive army of the Germanic Imperial Army, and encircle the main forces of the Gauls and the Sun Bu Setsu in one fell swoop, thus laying the foundation for victory in this war.

“Your Majesty, the 7th Army, the 8th Army, the 13th Army and the 16th Army have long been ready for battle and ready to attack. Moreover, war materials were prepared. The road exploration and repair in the Ardennes has also been completed. There was only a small section, so as not to be known by the Gauls, so it was not repaired. Once the offensive begins, the sappers will be able to lay the prefabricated parts directly in the shortest possible time and fix this section of the road without affecting the attack of our troops! Marshal Moltke Jr. said.

“Very well, since this is the case, then order the army to prepare for an attack. Three days later, the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 14th and 15th Armies of the Imperial Army launched an attack on the Marne Line from the frontal battlefield. The 17th and 18th armies, which remained in the Kingdom of Belis, entered northern Gaul and joined the offensive on the Marne line.

Subsequently, the 7th, 8th, 13th and 16th armies emerged from the mountains of Agar and attacked the flanks of the Gauls and the Sunseters.

The Imperial Army, a large-scale counterattack launched on the battlefield on the Western Front, is exactly the beginning! ”

August commanded.

“Yes, Your Majesty!” Marshal Moltke Jr. and Marshal von Falkenhein both answered.

They are all very excited and have been waiting for this day for a long time.

After August’s order, the armies of the Germanic Empire immediately took action.

The 17th and 18th armies, which were in the territory of the Kingdom of Belis, moved rapidly south by railway line towards Gaul.

At the same time, the eight army groups on the frontal battlefield were also beginning to mobilize troops in preparation for a counterattack.

On March 30, a large-scale counterattack by the Germanic Imperial Army on the battlefield on the Western Front began.

The 8 army groups on the frontal battlefield, reinforced by two more army groups, began to launch counterattacks.

It is still according to the same old tactics, before the attack, a long period of fire preparation.

Tens of thousands of guns of caliber of 75 mm or more fired fiercely at the Gaul and Sun Bu Ming people’s defenses.

This also made the Gauls and the Sunseters realize that the Germans were going to launch a counterattack.

Countless generals from Gaul and the sun never set, with serious expressions, wanted to resist the attack of the German Imperial Army.

They did not expect that at this time, a large army had entered the Ardennes from the western part of the Germanic Empire.
