Chapter 1092 Ending 2

The prince was very satisfied with the results of this battle. After signing a series of commendations, Major General Hall, Chief of the General Staff, handed the prince another document. The so-called Annunciation is over, it is time to report worry.

"Grass! Who can tell me how you broke 1,500 2-ton trucks, 1,000 3.5-ton trucks, and 1,250 1-ton tractors for me in such a short period of time?! You are dismantling them? Have you eaten it?!" Seeing the number of scrapped and broken down vehicles in the first row, Wang's face turned green. How to put it, this data is really amazing. If the prince remembers correctly, in history, at the beginning of World War I, it seems that the 7 armies on the western front of Germany only had 4000 trucks, right?

"Most of the vehicles are repairable losses caused by mechanical wear and tear. After all, our car transport troops followed the troops for more than 200 kilometers in the wilderness. Coupled with the overload problem of the troops and the enemy attacks, Therefore, wear and tear is normal. In short, I feel that we need to continue to improve the production capacity of trucks in the future. But fortunately, most vehicles are not permanently lost, and we have controlled the battlefield, and more than 80% of the lost vehicles can be brought back for repair. Repair and use." Major General Hall said.

"Well, let's get in touch with the United States and ask them to prepare more accessories. We will pay with gold. I hope that when we start the Polish Pocket Campaign, the number of usable cars in our army will double!" The prince thought for a while. Said. Bavaria imports not only raw materials from the United States, but also imports a lot of industrial semi-finished products and accessories in order to save domestic industrial production capacity.

Personnel losses are fairly acceptable. The Bavarian and Prussian legions totaled less than 70,000 casualties. It was acceptable to all divisions participating in the war. Go back to rest for a month and basically restore combat effectiveness. However, after seeing the loss of the Austro-Hungarian Army, the prince's eyebrows jumped involuntarily. The 2 and a half armies lost 150,000? ! Well, this directly brought the ratio of the war damage between the Allied powers and Russia to 1 to 2. The two and a half Austro-Hungarian Army is about 450,000, which is directly reimbursed by a third? !

However, after looking at the proportions of dead, injured and captured, the prince's face finally improved. Compared with the Russians, the proportion of irrecoverable losses on the Allied side was relatively low. The Russians are very tall. After all, the two Russian armies were defeated, and few people could escape, and the percentage of people who died and was captured was very high.

This time, the Allies have successively invested more than 600 various tanks. After the battle, there are still more than 300 available vehicles. About 80 of the remaining 300 vehicles were completely destroyed. Most of the remaining vehicles need to be returned to the factory for overhaul. About 400 artillery pieces were lost due to battle damage and wear. The Lviv fortress was bombed hard enough, but the prince apparently did not plan to invest manpower and material resources to rebuild the fortress, because it was not needed!

In short, these losses are nothing for the Bavarian and Bohemian Legions. According to the Prince’s estimate, within one month, at most one and a half months, the Bavarian and Bohemian Legions participating in the battle can recover their combat effectiveness. As for the Marken Sen's Prussian Army? The equipment can be replenished within one month. As for personnel issues, this can only be asked to the German General Staff to see how they allocate personnel.

The entire battle actually went on for about 5 days later, during which time the two sides reverted to a static defense stage. In the end, Mackensen's army stopped 25 kilometers north of Coveli. At the same time, a protrusion with a width ranging from 80 kilometers to 30 kilometers is formed. It is a distance of tens of kilometers from Brest, which signed the "Brest Treaty" in history! And what does this mean? This place is only 300 kilometers away from the northernmost part of East Prussia! A huge encirclement situation has been formed. Behind the five armies of northwest Russia, a sharp dagger has been fixed on the Russian neck. Before the start of the Polish Pocket Battle, this situation could have been perfect!

"We have now achieved our goal on the Russian front. From now on, before the thawing of the Gulf of Riga in March of the coming year, I do not expect to launch a large-scale offensive. It is now December. The troops are preparing for the winter. "The prince said.

"By the way, how is the Romanian front now?" the prince asked.

"The combat effectiveness of the Romanian army does not match their number at all. Although they have formed 4 armies with 600,000 artillery units, the number of artillery they have is not as good as an ordinary German army. There is no heavy artillery, so, although the Hungarians have very average combat effectiveness, they still successfully blocked the opponent’s attack and tried to attack. Hungary has been coveting Romania for a long time. Although they did not get our help, this time, they are I really tried my best. If you are lucky, you can solve the problem on this front next summer." Major General Hall said.

"Next summer? No, it's too late. I need to take the Priesti oil field at least next month!" The prince shook his head and said.

"His Royal Highness, you just said that the troops are preparing for the winter." Major General Hall said. "Although we have planned to launch an attack on the northern line while also using troops against Romania, I need to remind you that our troop consumption has exceeded expectations, and our maritime transportation line seems to be in trouble."

"What's the trouble?" The prince's heart tightened~lightnovelpub.net~ Some bad premonitions lingered in his mind.

"Well, you know, I'm just the chief of staff of the Bavarian Army. I shouldn't have trouble with the navy. And recently you were busy with the battle of Eastern Galicia, so the German Admiralty did not bother you." Rear Admiral Hall said.

"Okay, please make it clear that you will draft a telegram in my name to ask about related matters." The prince said, suppressing the anxiety in his heart. "Talk about our current import volume."

"Our current transportation volume of raw materials is about 30% lower than last month, industrial flakes are down 40%, and foodstuffs are down 20%." Major General Hall said.

"It doesn't matter, we continue the Romanian campaign! Tell the Hungarians, I only need the oil fields and refining equipment in Priesti, and I will not move the rest. Inform Prince Leopold that this battle will be commanded by him. All the Bavarian army on the Galician front can be under his temporary command." The prince thought for a while and continued: "Tell Mackensen my opinion and let him be prepared."
