"Tell Grand Duke Nikolayev that we can't stop it without an extra army! This time they made an overall breakthrough, and the most terrifying armored troops have not appeared yet. They want to break through our entire line of defense!" Finally, the general said in an almost hysterical tone!

The Russian military headquarters in Warsaw was almost simultaneously received telegrams from the front line. After analysis and summary, the staff placed a model that marked the situation between the enemy and us on a huge sand table. When Borusinov and others saw the schematic diagram of the battle situation, they couldn't help but take a breath!

On the front line of hundreds of kilometers, the entire defense line was largely recessed 12 to 16 kilometers! Not to mention the outermost defense line, even the main defense line that the Russians had carefully designed for a long time was broken. Judging from the news from the front, the most elite armored troops of the Germans have not been mobilized on a large scale. Today, the Germans can fight so smoothly, but it is entirely because of infantry and artillery! Is this TM too fierce? And the armored troops are not triggered and not fired, which means that the Germans will still have the ability to continue to advance in the next few days!

In the depth of the Russian defense positions, black dots represent the Bavarian Air Force's strike against Russian deep targets. The broken bridge models, the destroyed railway centers, and the roads under key care are clearly marked on the map. These black "scars" make people shudder! There are not a few Russian railways in total, and these scars are in the most deadly position. Although it is very fast if repaired, it is obvious that judging from the current German offensive speed, the other side obviously does not intend to give the Russians a chance to repair them!

"Brest can't hold on. According to past experience, the Germans can reach at least 80 to 110 kilometers in this wave. If I consider that they have prepared for a whole winter and advanced 180 kilometers, I wouldn't be too surprised." Mikhail Vasilyevich Arikseev, who served as chief of staff of the Russian Southwest Front last year, said after looking at the sand table.

"Can't we stop it? If we want, we can invest more than 600,000 troops here!" Nikolaevich asked.

"We are fighting on the ground. There is an upper limit for how many troops are deployed in the wide area. After exceeding this upper limit, we can only deploy the troops behind one by one. Moreover, after the opponent broke through the main position, we have no danger to defend. We use flesh and blood to fight against tanks and artillery on the vast plains. This is really terrible." Arikseyev took out his handkerchief and wiped the cold sweat on his head.

"So, what do you mean is to retreat? Let the troops retreat and avoid the opponent's troops?!" Nikolaevich thought for a while and asked. If this is done, it goes without saying that the troops who are still on the front line and who are preparing to enter the front line will be completely thrown away. They will receive orders to attack at all costs and then buy time for other troops to transfer.

"No, we absolutely cannot evacuate! Even with the intention of fighting to the death, we must not evacuate. Everyone, look at this place. If the Germans occupy Brest and continue to push forward 100 kilometers, then our situation will become like this!" Borusinov, next to him, walked to the sand table a few steps, picked up the putter in his hand, swept away the chess pieces of the legion on both sides of the front line, and then pushed several red soldiers representing the German troops to the position he had just mentioned!

In an instant, most of the forces of the five Russian armies located in Poland were completely surrounded by the German-Austrian Eastern Line Army, leaving only a very narrow exit and two very precious railway lines in the northeast direction! Seeing this scene, everyone present was shocked! Although it was still early spring, drops of cold sweat were left in their backs to their clothes. The entire venue was silent, and it was quiet that it was not just a joke!

"Retreat the Polish region and pull the troops to the heart of Russia?" An idea that had been suppressed for a long time emerged again. Nikolayev looked at the others, hoping that someone could make this suggestion, and then everyone wrote a presentation to the Tsar so that the latter could agree to the Polish garrison's attempt to retreat.

"It is definitely too late to evacuate now. If our frontal troops start to shrink and leave the stable defense line, we will definitely not be able to escape the opponent's pursuit troops. Our railways and highways will not be able to withdraw so many troops from the area west of Warsaw to Ukraine and Belarus!" Borusinov thought of his boss's idea, but he knew that this would definitely not work. Before the enemy came, he was in chaos first. This is the way to kill him!

"We must at least resist this wave. The Bavarian Legion is not a devil. They will also suffer casualties and be tired. Even if he can kill our 300,000 troops, this is already at its limit. We can appropriately weaken the troops facing the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and then form a new reserve team. We must be prepared to invest half of the troops in this strategic direction to consume them. They can only fall, otherwise the entire empire will be buried with us. Everyone should be very clear that the empire will not be able to replenish the equipment of these five armies in our hands this year!" Borusinov said with red eyes and a hoarse voice, like a crazy gambler!

However, it was this remark that completely sounded the death knell of the five Russian armies in Poland! Borusinov underestimated the speed and production capacity of the Bavarian Kingdom's army expansion. His idea was still there last year. The Bavarian Legion killed more than 200,000 troops at one time. Even if the Bohemia Legion and Markensen's East Prussian Legion, it would be fine to kill 400,000 Russian troops at one time? During the interwar after a big fight between the two sides, the Russians slowly and orderly retreated the remaining more than 1 million troops from the Polish region. This is Borusinov's idea. In his opinion, there is nothing wrong with it!

Borusinov never thought that there would be problems in the defense system in East Prussia. There were either fortresses or woods. You should take a look! And my brother also deployed an army there, okay? So, Borusinov is still recommending his plan to everyone now!

"We must not give in at a single step, let the Germans advance in waist-deep blood! Stop them completely, drag them down, and drag them to death! Then after evacuating the Polish region, we will re-establish the defense line! In this way, the situation will gradually balance! All participating troops will attack indomitablely and disrupt the opponent's deployment through continuous counterattacks." Borusinov said fiercely, waving the putter in his hand.
Chapter completed!
