Comrade, Your Ingredients Are Too Complicated Chapter 293

Chapter 293 Even if the Eastern Army is concerned, we will attack!

 “The direction of the Soviet-German war? Maozi's Far Eastern Army? Benzi's Kwantung Army?”

Thinking about the deputy general staff's question silently, combined with Desan's previous deployment of troops, Huang He immediately realized the seriousness of the matter. He stared at the small map in front of him and began to think and analyze.

 Compared with the situation in memory, the current war has undergone earth-shaking changes, which can even be described as unrecognizable.

 Leave aside the number of participants and the various types of weapons invested by both sides, the general mobilization just mentioned by Tiger in the Forest is outrageous.

 Judging from the existing industrial base of Desan, even switching to "partial mobilization" or "wartime economy" is a very scary thing.

The original timeline has proven everything. After all, the German military industry has the ability to increase production despite strategic bombing.

 Nowadays, it is suspected that "general mobilization" has entered the early stage of the battle. It is difficult to imagine what kind of combat effectiveness the three major army groups attacking on the eastern front will have.

 After thinking for a moment, Huang He looked at the fifth-level general with a serious expression.

“Speaking of which, before Operation Barbarossa began, how many troops did Dalinzi deploy to fight?”

“What is the equipment holding rate of the troops at all levels? How many aircraft, tanks and artillery have they prepared? You must think about it carefully. I need to compare the strengths of both sides to make reasonable inferences.”

 “This is very important, it is related to our next arrangements.”

Without waiting for the tiger in the forest to answer, the deputy general staff officer directly took out a few pieces of paper from the folder on the table. In Huang He's field of vision, he also vaguely saw the familiar French language.

“Everyone, let's take a look together. This is the secret information sent by our North African allies three days ago. It contains their estimated strength of the woolly bears.”

“According to Charles's original words, the contents of this piece of paper took them two months to complete.”

 At this moment, the benefits of having a reliable ally are clear.

In addition to its own remaining spy network, Free France also shared some non-top-secret information with Britain to a certain extent.

Before Operation Barbarossa officially started, Fatty Qiu, who was far away in Britain, was the one who most wanted to join the battle in the forest. It was reasonable for the opponent to have the basic data of the bear's troop strength.

What's more, the intelligence sent to the border areas by the North African allies will be screened repeatedly in advance to be highly credible.

Hearing the words of the deputy general staff officer, Huang He took the lead and came to the edge of the conference table.

“The total strength of the army is 7 million, including 50,060 artillery pieces of various calibers, 16,000 tanks, and 10,200 aircraft.”

Compared with the memory, this data has also been strengthened to a certain extent, but it is not as exaggerated as Desan.

When the above numbers were presented in the small conference room, the big bosses present let out one after another exclamations, because the psychological shadow caused by the lack of firepower expanded again.

The army has the ability to move across North China with just one division in the air. Three hundred advanced Hurricane fighter jets can suppress the Army Aviation of the North China Front.

Based on everyone's current command experience, it is difficult to imagine what it would be like to have thousands of aircraft fighting in an airspace at the same time.

But currently Mao Zi is still a nominal ally of the Eighth Route Army. It is a good thing that the other party has such a powerful army.

 With the comparative data, everyone except the Yellow River and the tigers in the forest breathed a sigh of relief. They believed that judging from paper data, the strength of the Soviet Union and Germany should be between equals.

From the perspective of the big bosses, although the former has fewer troops and artillery, tens of thousands of tanks and aircraft are enough to make up for the not too big gap.

 What's more, when fighting on the mainland, the defender has the right location and people, and the troops have certain blessings in terms of combat effectiveness.

Considering the special situation in the north, the advantage of weather will be taken into account in a few months. After all, General Dong does not joke with the enemy.

As long as the war enters a stalemate, Dalinzi will not mobilize too many troops from the Far East Military Region. Even if the Kwantung Army in this book has thousands of ideas, it still has to defend the Northeast.

But Huang He knew one thing. The troops in the north looked good on paper at the beginning of the war, but many flaws would be exposed as soon as they fought.

 Take the bad pilots as an example.

These people have little practical experience, and most of them are novices.

Only a small number of elites participated in the Spanish Civil War, the Flying Group to Aid China or the Soviet-Finnish War, and their flight time was seriously insufficient.

 Once novices join the battle, there is a high probability that they will repeat the same mistakes as in the Winter War. It was not only the Army that was embarrassed at the beginning, but the Air Force's battle loss ratio was not very good either.

Looking at their enemies, their pilots have never stopped attacking since 1939, conquering one country after another.

 Compared with Desan's air force, the young men in the early stages of the war were still too young.

What's more serious is that the tens of thousands of aircraft seem to be a huge number, but there are many old-fashioned fighters among them. You can even see the double-winged I-15 and I-153 on the front line.

Facing the bf109 fleet led by many ace pilots, one can imagine the fate of those stupid pilots.

Of course, it's not that there are no new aircraft in the north.

It's a pity that the new equipment has only been installed in the army for a few months. The pilots are barely familiar with the basic performance and have not yet formed reliable combat effectiveness.

Coupled with the large land area, the above-mentioned types of aircraft are scattered across the country. If they fight, they will definitely be beaten at the airport by Meyer's men.

 The situation of tanks is not much better. The tens of thousands of tanks in the intelligence are mainly the cute T26, and the number of T34 and KV1 is pitifully small.

The T26, which can dominate the Asian war, can only stabilize the front with numbers on the cruel Eastern Front in Europe, and even faces the problem of insufficient fuel at any time.

In addition, most of the generals who were good at armored warfare died in the great purge. In the early days of the war, no one could lead the troops to stop Guderian Gahot's crazy advance.

With the above-mentioned troops to fight against Desan, the best result is to use numbers to buy time. Dalinzi estimates that he will have to shout the classic slogan some time in advance.

Although the motherland is big, there is no way to retreat. Behind us is Moscow.

After a hasty analysis of the current situation, Huang He could not predict the end time of the war based on his memories of previous lives, but there were two things he could be sure of.

 1. The entire eastern Europe will inevitably be reduced to a scorched earth, and both industrial and agricultural levels will have to regress. No matter who the final victor is, the primary problem they face after the war is definitely how to rebuild the country from the ruins.

  2. The tragedy of the entire war will inevitably intensify, at least twice as exaggerated as the ending in memory. The death of a generation of young people may be the best ending.

While everyone present was relatively optimistic about the current situation, Huang He was forced to pour cold water on everyone's heads.

“I personally think there's going to be absolutely a lot of pressure on the north before this winter comes.”

"According to my understanding of the hard power of the two countries, if Mao Xiong does not provide strong and continuous assistance, Mustache's Barbarossa plan really has a certain possibility of success."         "So, we must do a good job in the forest. Take away the psychological preparation of most of the Far East troops."

Hearing the shocking inference made by Huang Heyu, the bosses all showed thoughtful expressions, and even the tigers in the forest were patiently waiting for the other party's next words.

 After all, the young people in front of us have very good judgments about the international situation.

Last year, most people were optimistic about the European hegemon with deep foundations, but he was the only one who expressed the view that France would surrender if it could not hold on for long.

Facing the expectant looks of the big guys, Huang He put forward the above ideas one by one.

During this period, whenever the true combat effectiveness of the northern troops was mentioned, the Tiger in the Forest, who had been training in Moscow for nearly three years, would always nod in agreement immediately, and would even add his own opinion when the infantry was mentioned.

 Half an hour later, everyone present had a preliminary understanding of Huang He's point of view. Combining the currently available intelligence, everyone has reached an agreement that Dalinzi will definitely mobilize troops from the Far East.

 The only question now is how many troops the other side will leave to stare at the Kwantung Army.

"Hey, it seems that time is not on our side. Regarding the battle plan in the Suiyuan area, we have to take a long-term view."

“If we had been more decisive and sent troops to the entire Shanxi Province and Suiyuan while supporting Zhongtiao Mountain, we might have been able to regain the lost territory without the Japanese being prepared.”

“At least the Kwantung Army at that time could not act at will, and the North China Front Army alone could never stop us.”

Looking at the frowning deputy commander-in-chief, Huang He began to continue recalling in his heart.

 In his memory, Benzi will draw up the "Outline of the Empire's National Policy to Adapt to the Evolving Situation" tomorrow.

This document specifically states that the furry bears in the north must be secretly attacked with force at the appropriate moment to ensure the security of the northern border.

The Kwantung Army will then conduct two exercises in the next two weeks, using 14 divisions and 600 aircraft to show off its "muscles" at the junction.

 Although in the original timeline, the Japanese army finally chose to go south.

But that's because even when the Soviet-German battlefield was the most dangerous, Dalinzi did not mobilize too many troops from the Far East Military Region, and even increased troops regularly.

But the situation is different now. Facing the comprehensively strengthened Desan, it is hard to say whether the Maozi can stabilize the final front as before.

If the frontal battlefield is on the verge of collapse, Dalinzi will definitely be under pressure to piece together the front line with troops to fill the line.

　　If a few months later, Mustache uses Western Siberia as a bargaining chip to invite his allies to go north to attack the bear.

Facing a weak Far East Military Region, who knows whether we will send troops?

  After all, the Japanese have built a large number of supply bases and warehouses in the occupied areas. The total capacity of food, ammunition, fuel and other materials can be used by 180 to 200 divisions during war.

With such a substantial family background, who dares to say that they don't have the confidence to go north.

 After a moment, Huang He stood up from his stool and expressed his final opinion.

“I think Dalinzi will definitely deploy the troops deployed in the Far East, but he will definitely leave at least 500,000 troops to guard the Kwantung Army.”

“In order to continue to occupy the four eastern provinces, the Japanese army needs to leave an equal number of troops to confront the border. This means that even if we send troops to Suiyuan, we only need to face the North China Front plus 200,000 Kwantung Army at most.”

 “So, you can fight!”

 Huang He's above analysis is based on the actual situation and the memory in his mind.

Since the Meiji Restoration, the four northeastern provinces have been regarded as their lifeline and are key expansion areas that cannot be easily given up.

The Japanese Army has always regarded it as its largest territory and forbidden area, and its control and operation of the local area even exceeds the mainland in a sense.

 After all, it is rich in resources, fertile land, and has developed industry and agriculture.

Compared with the small mainland, which is located on an island, the entire Northeast has many advantages.

Even they have always had the idea internally that if the homeland is lost one day in the future, all of them will move to the northeast.

With the encouragement from the eyes of the deputy commander-in-chief and deputy general staff officer, Huang He continued:

“The situation at home and abroad is very chaotic now. We should take advantage of this period to actively regain lost ground.”

“Even if we do not attack the Suiyuan area now due to the pressure from the Kwantung Army, the enemy will definitely deal with this major problem of ours first when they calm down.”

“Shanxi is so big, and the maximum number of troops we can raise is 100,000. If we can't get out of our comfort zone, we will never be able to drive away the invaders by our own strength.”

 In fact, Huang He still has some reasons that he has not revealed. The red spy king is still active in Japan.

If Benzi still makes the decision not to declare war to the north this year, Sorge will collect intelligence through various channels and send the news back to Moscow.

Before Desan's Operation Barbarossa started, Dalinzi received a warning from his own red spy king, but at that time he did not believe that Mustache would fight on two fronts.

Any intelligence sent back by Sorge will now be taken seriously, and the troops in the Far East may be transferred in mid-October.

Even if Japan launches the Pacific War due to resource issues, the Kwantung Army will still have remaining time to support the troops directly under the Mongolian Army and the North China Front Army.

 Therefore, the attack on Suiyuan cannot be delayed.

 After hearing all of Huang He's thoughts, the bosses fell into a brief silence. It is not difficult to see from everyone's expressions that everyone is struggling.

The current changes in the army are great, but it is precisely because of this that they are targeted by the Japanese.

 Be proactive in launching attacks and be able to take the initiative. Passive defense can buy more preparation time.

 Seemingly seeing everyone's hesitation, Huanghe decided to add another fire.

“We are not currently fighting alone. In addition to our comrades in the Northeast, we actually have a reliable ally in the Kwantung Army.”

“Maybe they are not strong yet, but they are definitely a big bomb buried inside the enemy. As long as we can delay the enemy, the bomb will explode faster.”

“Perhaps there will be problems within the enemy without us taking action.”

Kwantung Army is difficult to write about, and everyone knows why. The only way I can think of right now is to fish them out bit by bit.
