Chapter 142 This is also a great advantage in combat
At this moment, Model had left the front line of artillery fire and returned to his temporary command center, and was also listening to the war damage report of his troops.
"The Soviet artillery position in the north has been destroyed by our fierce artillery fire..."
"The Soviet troops in the south are evacuating, and they have also found that their reinforcements are gathering..."
"The Soviet army's artillery position in the east is still stable, and its offensive against our army is still very fierce..."
"The Soviet artillery in the west was completely suppressed by the artillery fire of the 12th Armored Division's new weapons and equipment..."
"The Soviet army's night bomber group and night fighter group have been annihilated by artillery fire from the 12th Armored Division's new weapons and equipment. There are fewer than 13 aircraft that can escape..."
"As for our defensive positions, the soldiers of our empire resisted wave after wave of attacks by the Soviet army with unyielding and desperate spirit..."
"However, our first defensive position was still blown up by the Soviet army's large-scale artillery fire, killing and injuring many soldiers!"
"In addition, our current combat damage was probably caused by the Soviet army that 186 tanks were destroyed, 150 large-caliber artillery pieces, 85 anti-tank guns, 40 mortars, and more than 3,000 soldiers were killed..."
"The 12th Armored Division of Ss only suffered 10 casualties, and no major casualties have been reported yet!"
Chief of Staff Everfert reported to Model with a large pile of battlefield telegrams.
Model paved around the command center, listening to the report expressionlessly while thinking...
"General Model! Our losses are not optimistic now! Especially our tanks No. 3 and No. 4! Please issue the latest combat instructions!"
After reporting, Chief of Staff Everfert said worriedly.
"Do you know how Napoleon fought?"
After hearing this, Model smiled slightly.
At that moment, he was a little nervous just now, but suddenly relaxed.
"Ah! I don't know, I don't pay much attention to him! And he is a person before World War I, and the times are a little far away for me!"
Chief of Staff Everfert was asked so suddenly, completely confused.
"It is rumored that before every battle, Napoleon would constantly think in his mind about what obstacles and difficulties they would encounter in the battle, and how to overcome it! But before that, what he thought most was how to deploy troops before the war, and how the enemy would deploy troops."
"There are also the enemy's marching routes, and the ambush will be set up there, and the enemy's main attack target is where, what are the enemy's troops and weapons and equipment? So he will give his reconnaissance troops very clearly and order them to go where and where they go and where they are on the specific route."
"So that he can continue to verify and overturn his pre-war deployment until he feels that he has more grasp of the enemy's military situation! Then he will send troops to attack!"
"And what I am doing now is similar to what he does! Since we have probably figured out the 13th Army opposite me, the military strength and weapons and equipment status of other Soviet troops, then our large-scale counterattack is about to begin!"
"But when war begins, we must try our best to conceal our combat operations and target intentions; so that the enemy cannot see the reality of our army; so that they can dispose of troops everywhere to guard against our attacks, and we can easily concentrate our superior forces, and use a fierce blow to the enemy's weak defense, and deal a heavy blow to the opponent!"
"Actually, the first combat counterattack method I have said is to avoid the real and attack the virtual, and let the Soviet army disperse its troops to prevent our crazy attack. While they are dispersed, we will immediately concentrate our superior forces to attack one of them, and it is best to have ten enemies and one!"
"However, based on the Soviet army's defensive front is too deep and its defense is too strong, so we must first lure the enemy into depth, and then follow the combat method I just mentioned to avoid the real and attack the virtual, to annihilate the living power of the 13th Army of the Soviet Army!"
Model spoke out in one breath of the warrior in Sun Tzu's Art of War that he had recently communicated with Chen Yanlong and said to the strategy.
"I probably understand what you mean, but you can tell me a little more simply, how can I execute your order now? General Model!"
Chief of Staff Everfert was stunned and said awkwardly.
"Then you will immediately dispatch all of our main forces, the 41st Army and the 47th Army, as soon as the Soviet artillery fire cover stopped, and immediately dispatched me to a multi-faceted formation, so that the enemy would constantly disperse their troops to prevent our attacks."
"Then we concentrated on a little bit of fighting and attacking the Soviet army, and even pursuing the Soviet army's defeated soldiers; then when we reached a certain damage rate, we pretended to be defeated and lured the enemy into deep combat!"
"But you have to remember that this is what the Head of State said to me solemnly many times! That is, war, being a human being, and doing things are the same. We cannot be too greedy and cannot want to occupy everything."
"Because when you occupy one place because you are too greedy and want to occupy another place, then in the end you will not reach the shore; just like a person who is on two boats, you will gain nothing in the end! You may even lose your wife and your troops!"
"Yes! General Model!"
Chief of Staff Everfert was stunned again and said in shame.
"Finally, I will make it clear to you that our greatest advantage in this battle is, in addition to the reinforcements temporarily dispatched by the head of state, as well as a large number of heavy weapons, equipment and ammunition, as well as those large numbers of new weapons, we also have a very important combat advantage!"
Model suddenly smiled cunningly.
"What are the big combat advantages?"
Upon hearing this, Chief of Staff Everfert immediately opened his eyes wide and asked curiously.
"That is, when and where the war will begin, I will choose for the Soviet army!"
Model said with a smug smile.
"Ah! This is also a great combat advantage..."
After hearing this, Chief of Staff Everfert said speechlessly, twitching at the corner of his mouth.
"Don't you believe it?"
Seeing the strange reaction of Chief of Staff Everfert's Guri, Moder immediately said unhappy.
"It's not that I don't believe it! But I don't quite understand what you mean! General Model!"
Chief of Staff Everfert said with a wry smile.
"Are you really my chief of staff? Why do I feel that your wisdom recently is not enough! I always ask me to explain it to you in such detail!"
Model said pretending to be angry.
"I'm sorry! I'm rude! General Moder! Please forgive me!"
