"Our situation is getting worse and worse. The Germans began to expand their attack width. Before that, we lost too many infantry and artillery. Coupled with the Luftwaffe's strike against the rear traffic hub, it is difficult for us to effectively support and mobilize. Although they also showed some sluggishness, and some problems with the reserve ammunition and oil, even if the opponent could not completely penetrate our defense, our entire battle in Poland had failed because the opponent left an irreparable wound on our defense!"

When the battle lasted until the fourth day, the German army had advanced about 50 to 75 kilometers on the front line that was more than 100 kilometers wide! Even Kuropatkin admitted that no matter what the result of this battle was, his Fourth Army would be over! The best result was to withdraw and reorganize it after the battle, pull it to the rear for a few months, and then push it to a new front.

"Since the beginning of the war, 12 of the divisions belonging to the Fourth Army and the support force have been completely destroyed, and the total loss of about 150,000 troops is about 150,000. (Many Russian divisions cannot be in full state before the war.) Another 9 divisions have been severely damaged, and this part is about 80,000. If we include the losses of other divisions, we have lost about 260,000 people, of which the unrecoverable losses are about 200,000!" Borusinov thought further, and he is no longer worried about the Fourth Army now, because the Fifth Army's family is about to be wiped out!

The two armies combined were about 600,000, nearly half of them were killed, and nearly 200,000 troops were nailed to the front and continued to be consumed! If they fought for a few more days, they would definitely collapse!

This is not only the loss of the front-line troops, but also the equipment and logistics are no longer affordable. Not only the air force originally assigned to the Fourth Army has been beaten to only two or three kittens, but even the planes transferred from other places have suffered heavy losses. More than 280 aircraft have been hung in the Polish theater, and more than 80 seriously injured. The ones that can be used directly have just reached three digits!

What about the other side? According to the Russian inference, from the current situation, the number of bombers in the Bavarian Legion on the southern front should be more than 500! Although the front line advanced nearly 100 kilometers (including the beginning.), it has no effect on German bombers. It only takes 40 minutes to fly. It should be thrown 1500KG bombs at one time, and still throw 1500KG bombs...

Then, this made the Russian army's logistics. The Germans did not drop much bombs, but you have to know that Russia's logistics supply system in this era is more fragile! What? You talk about the prevention and control system? What? Borusinov said he didn't know. The Eastern Front was broken three days ago.

Railways, highways, troop stations, group stations, bridges. German bombers even entered the battlefield from a height below 100 meters, and then unscrupulously dropped high-explosive bombs and incendiary bombs. This greatly reduced the transportation volume of the Russians. If the traffic volume before the war was 100, on the first day of the battle, the Russians stood up with the German bombing, and relied on the reserve transportation team to increase the transportation volume to about 130. However, it continued to decline soon, and to now, it was only about 40%. What's even more tragic is that even if it can be transported now, the Russians' reserve reserves are not so sufficient. At least in Warsaw, Borusinov could no longer provide Kuropatkin with more than 10 152MM level howitzers of 152MM level!

For the party with a big family and a big business, it is actually quite good to spend money like this. For the party with a weak side, the result of this is chronic death.

"We must ensure that the narrowest passage in the northeast is more than 80 kilometers! It cannot be narrower. After blocking the attack of the Bavarian Legion, all the troops immediately began to shrink. We are ready to leave this pocket!" Grand Duke Nikolayev broke his silence and said firmly. Now the intention of the Bavarian Legion is very obvious, but how to say it, sometimes, you can change the battlefield situation by knowing the other party's intentions... If the Russian army retreats rashly without careful preparation, then what is waiting for him is retreat and retreat...

What is the most tragic thing in the world? It’s not that you can’t understand the opponent’s conspiracy, but that even if you understand the opponent’s ideas and know what they want to do, you are still led by the nose! And now, Prince Ruprecht, the commander of the Bavarian Legion and the entire Allies on the Eastern Front, will no longer give the Russians a chance to evacuate! When Prince Leopold’s southern legion tightly restrains and consumes all the Russians’ mobile power, the sharp blade located on the Northern Line is also ready to take action!

"From the news we have received so far, the Russians have realized some of our plans, but they still have not made up their minds to break through. If they run now, they may lose 600,000 troops, but they gave up this opportunity, so they are destined to lose more than 1 million troops this time!" In Konesburg, Markenson said with a jokey expression after submitting the latest combat information to the prince.

"My troops are ready. I can completely break through the Russian fortification area within three days! Then, use three days to join the army of His Highness Leopold to complete the encirclement of the Russian troops in the entire Polish region!" Markens said confidently.

"At most, one month! We will annihilate millions of Russian troops, and the entire Polish region will fall under the control of the empire!" Markens said with a finger.

"I agree with most of the opinions you said, but one month is a bit too fast. We should at least give the Russian troops in the St. Petersburg area a time to mobilize them and give them some fantasies of success. In addition, we should also give Britain and France some hope." The prince sitting in the main seat sneered.

If the Russian army in the entire Polish region is destroyed within a month, or if Britain, France and Russia realize that they cannot escape the siege, what will happen? Although the Russian army will be severely damaged, their remaining forces will form a new line of defense. For the Eastern Front, although the Polish Pocket Battle is a perfect end, it always gives people a feeling that it is not very complete. If it stays, then the Russian army in the St. Petersburg Military Region will inevitably go south. In this way, the landing operations in the Gulf of Riga will become very meaningful. If it is fought well, I am afraid that the Russians will not be able to establish a coherent front in the next year or even the entire empire collapses! Because they have been broken!
