Chapter 1627: U.S. Army Observer Mission Three

Chapter 1627 US Army Observer Group 3

"So, on land, your country can also adopt a war of attrition, which is to fight a large-scale war of attrition where the Japanese have given up, whether it is the oil and rubber production areas of Kalimantan Island, or the copper production areas of Guinea Island. mines and other mines, these places are the essence of these islands, as long as your country concentrates its forces to attack these areas, then they must defend whether Japan wants to or not. Then, take the Japanese army from the rugged mountains and lush jungles Attract it, and fight a modern war on the US military's preset battlefield, you don't even need to win, as long as you can continue to consume it, then believe me, Japan will finally succumb!" The prince said with a smile.

"Although winning like this is not so beautiful, it is a very good way." Perxing nodded and said.

"The correct strategy only points out the direction. As a force that has not experienced modern large-scale combat for a long time, your country still has a lot to learn. The cooperation between infantry and artillery is only the most basic, and the cooperation between armored forces and infantry is considered Advanced. The cooperation between the air force and the ground is the mainstream of future tactics. Of course, these are at the tactical level. At the operational level, how to use your own advantages in maneuvering and reconnaissance to find the enemy's loopholes and create opportunities to secure victory in one fell swoop. It is the most important thing. For example, in the battle we are about to launch, I can tell you very clearly that our troops are not stronger than the French, and our technical equipment is not superior, but in this battle , we are the hunters and the French are the prey."

Prince Ruprecht doesn't mind teaching the Americans at this time. After all, everyone is an ally now. At least on the surface, these high-level US Army leaders should feel that they are valued. Become real money to support Germany, what? You said that the Americans have learned well, what will happen in 20 years? The brothers are too far away, and 20 years later, the way of war brought about by technology will change again. Is it just talk to say that the staff are always ready for the last war?

"A troop's mobility is an important part of its combat effectiveness. In the Middle Ages, cavalry relied on their strong mobility and penetration to dominate the battlefield for hundreds of years. In the Napoleonic period, as the troop equipment became more and more Heavy vehicles have not made great progress, resulting in a continuous decline in the mobility of the troops. During the Napoleonic Wars, the marching speed of large troops could reach 50 kilometers per day. During the Russo-Japanese War, they broke away from the railway line. The army’s movement speed is only about 25 kilometers. But today, everything has changed because we have cars, tanks and planes.”

"If we want to defeat the French army in front of us, it is very difficult to rely solely on positional warfare and advancement. The opponent has at least 30 companies of long-range artillery, and the shooting distance is from 15 to 18 kilometers. Artillery in a semi-permanent offensive can Covering most of the area. In this case, if our troops stay at a certain point for a long time, I am afraid it will cause a lot of trouble. Everyone who came from the Western Front should know that the current firepower suppression lasts for several hours. It's a very normal thing."

"Our artillery is inferior to our opponents in quantity and quality,

It is also difficult to suppress hundreds of long-range artillery pieces solely by relying on the current air force, so what needs to be done now? Naturally, it is a quick assault, continuous movement, deep penetration or outflanking of the opponent, and not fighting in the opponent's preset position! "

"In this campaign, my troops will completely disrupt the fragile boundary between the enemy's front and rear, and at the same time use the accompanying self-propelled artillery to concentrate superior firepower in a certain direction to suppress. We will put the opponent's painstaking efforts, deploy The defenses of a large number of troops were thrown back, and then like a sharp knife, it went straight to their most vulnerable parts."

"The other party is not short of troops, nor does it lack sufficient heavy weapons, nor is it that supplies are not smooth. The key point is that they cannot figure out us and are completely led by our noses. A large number of troops are moving slowly between the lines of defense. Precious Time and opportunities are wasted on the road. And on the battlefield, any small failure may lead to extremely serious consequences!" The prince said energetically.

"However, if the opponent's defense line is deep enough and deploys minefields, obstacles, and trenches, it may not be so easy for your side to break through. On the entire Western Front, both sides do not have tanks and armored forces, but they often break through after the initial breakthrough. After a few layers of defense, it will be like falling into a quagmire."

Major Marshall thought for a while and said that the trench offensive and defensive battle on the western front had left a deep impact on him. Countless soldiers and tens of thousands of tons of ammunition were poured into a small place, and the two sides paid tens of thousands of dollars. The price is often only to move the display a few hundred meters. This is not a war, but a massacre!

"The establishment of any tactic is based on the same level of strength. If the gap is too large to the extent that a dog on a leash can win, then naturally there is no point in discussing it. With my current It is obviously very difficult to break through a defense line like the one on the Western Front, because our forces are not equal, and the gap is too large. So this time we are just a preview of the future battle on the Western Front. , Break through the opponent's defense line and wipe out the opponent." The prince explained.

Is the Bavarian army strong? It is naturally very strong, but if you look at the Western Front, the scale and strength are far from enough to launch a decisive battle in a certain direction. An army group on the Western Front is more than 800,000, without thousands of artillery pieces, no Dozens of train guns, hundreds of 210MM heavy howitzers and K09 cannons, are you ashamed to say that you are going to launch a large-scale offensive on the Western Front? What are you kidding?

The prince is not worried that such a battle will not be fought on the Western Front in the future. Let alone take a look at history, there were no tanks in time, and the German Army, which was not dominant in the air force, also launched the Emperor's Offensive in the latter part of World War I. Did the French collapse? Americans don’t participate in the war in this era. On the contrary, they are still on the side of the Germans. Let’s not talk about whether they can parade on the Champs Elysees again. At least they can play an advantage. It’s not a big problem to put Paris within the range of the K09 artillery, right? Put a gun to your forehead for fear that you will not give in?

Besides, when the Bavarian Army really went to the Western Front, the German army was superior in terms of quantity and quality. In terms of relative strength, the Western Front should be better than this battle, at least on the Western Front Therefore, the concentrated German armored forces and the total number of troops are dominant, and the artillery and air force can at least be equal. Here, except for the air force, the armored forces are not dominant in number, and the artillery is even more disadvantaged.

"Then we will wait and see." The black old man Pershing said meaningfully.
