Chapter 1048 Something seems to be wrong?

In the headquarters of Prince Ruprecht, the staff officers are marking the fighting situation of the two sides on the map based on the latest battlefield intelligence. Several Russian assault troops have penetrated into the Austro-Hungarian positions ranging from 25 to 45 kilometers. Wear 3 to 5 to the defensive line. The Russian troops have detoured back to the northern part of the Lviv Fortress. As long as they try to block the east-west traffic line, the Russian troops have completed half of the mission of the battle, and then they can proceed when the follow-up troops are in place. One step action, whether it is to complete the encirclement of the Lviv fortress area or continue to attack until the Carpathians line!

"This time the Russians are playing a bit fiercely. It seems that our infantry division didn't take any advantage when it met the vanguard of Russia?" Prince Ruprecht asked after a cup of coffee.

"That's right, especially the situation on the Eastern Front is very bad. The Romanian Army already has the intention to act. The Russians will have a big appetite. They may form a pincer-like offensive with the Romanian Army in the south, so Leopold His Royal Highness decided to bring 3 Bavarian divisions and 6 Austro-Hungarian divisions to carry out a round of blockade against the Russian Eastern Front Army." Major General Hall said.

"Let the troops that have not been put on the front line shrink first and stabilize the formation. The enemy can tolerate some breakthroughs in the early stage of the offensive. It can keep the troops in their hands and regain them later. Don't worry." Staying mad, I think there will be no major mistakes in the arrangement this time, so good, and the rest must first understand why this wave of Russian offensive is so sharp, and then prescribe the right medicine.

To be honest, if you find the reason for this wave of battle from your own perspective, it is that the strength is not enough. If you simply talk about hard power, the prince’s troops plus the Austro-Hungarian Army have not yet started the Bavarian Army Gaposi. Miya is strong... This time, the prince mobilized 40% of his own forces (currently one third is not in place), but there is only one breakthrough division, and the proportion of armored units to the total is visually not more than a quarter. The air force is about one-third. As for the two and a half armies of the Austro-Hungarian Army, this round of battle might not be as powerful as the Bohemian Army! You know, the Bohemian Legion now has more than 200,000. The theoretical number of the two Austro-Hungarian regiments currently seems to be 360,000, but the actual number is about 320,000.

And if you look at the strength of the Russians, it’s the three standard Russian legions plus a series of enhancements. Not only are they supplemented by additional cavalry units, but also almost the whole of Russia used a single round of demon disintegration. Heavy artillery and train cannon. After all, Russia is an empire, and it is still terrifying to take out the wealth. It is quite normal to directly break through several layers of defense.

Of course, if you say that the Russians used force to suppress, that would be wrong. After carefully studying the Russian intelligence and tactics, the prince also had to admit that the Russians did have unique offensive tactics this time. Even the prince thought it was not easy for the Russians to achieve this level.

The Russians are not good at making some delicate things, but they have a talent to make a very successful product after a series of combinations of some very mediocre components! We can call it system engineering well done. In terms of strategy and tactics, the Russians are also masters at "mixing cocktails", otherwise they would not be able to develop the classic strategy of deep combat.

Compared with the steel torrent of the later Russians, the prince felt that it was obviously more difficult for the Russians of this plane to achieve this level. Because the material conditions of the latter are really too poor, the Russians were able to fought ten battles like Stalin's assault because of their huge overall advantage, whether in terms of strength, equipment, or supplies. It is easier to play such a battle with a good hand, but this time? The Russian Eastern Front is actually not stronger than the Bavarian Army and the Austro-Hungarian Army. It is not easy to be able to fight such a battle when the material conditions are not sufficient!

Russia worked hard in this battle, not just because they overdrawn the war potential of the empire! What's more, they spent several months studying the tactics of the Bavarian Army and tried to come up with a set of targeted tactics! In the end, the Russians chose a quick breakthrough, and they did their best to directly shock the entire line of defense in the shortest time! If it is said that the Russians used moves similar to the disintegration of the demon in terms of equipment preparation, then the method of this attack is also the same! In the first round, he has no reservations about the power in his hands, and put all in!

Without the reserve team, without the large and deep breakthrough corps created by the later Russians, and the subsequent development corps, it was a desperate move! They assigned the fastest moving, best equipment, and most elite soldiers to the front line! The Russians put almost all of their cavalry forces in the battle on the two wings for the first time! Of course, this kind of cavalry is no longer the Cossack who used sabers and carbines to do his best, nor is it the simple mounted infantry of later generations.

If you have to define one, ~lightnovelpub.net~ is more like a fast maneuver with horses and carriages, equipped with a large number of machine guns and light artillery, plus a small number of cars and self-propelled artillery. force. If you have to find a unit that is quite similar to the later generations, then it is a bit like the way the cavalry unit was stuffed with tanks after the establishment of the Soviet Union.... Of course, the Russians don’t have so many tanks to pack, and there are really very few self-propelled artillery. According to the current news, apart from the 107MM cannon weighing more than 2 tons, there is no artillery or thing that can enjoy the treatment of a crawler site. !

Such a troop is certainly not like a real cavalry to soar more than 50 kilometers a day. In fact, in the absence of interference from the enemy, 35 kilometers a day is the limit, but it is still much faster than a simple infantry. Up! The movement speed of the infantry division is only 25 kilometers per day. The former is 40% happier than the latter! Moreover, after all, they are cavalry, after all, they are equipped with super-braided horses. The ammunition carried by this unit is much larger than that of ordinary infantry units, which is why their division can concentrate nearly 200 machine gun carriages! This is not a trench battle between the two sides of later generations! This is a sports war! With every step forward of the troops, the difficulty of logistical supplies has risen doubled! The Russians will continue to break through their positions and then shake the entire line of defense! To maintain this speed and want to have strong firepower, I have to say that the Russians have done their best!
