In Prince Ruprecht's command, the staff were marking the battle situation between the two sides on the map based on the latest battlefield intelligence. Several Russian assault troops have penetrated the Austro-Hungarian position 25 to 45 kilometers, breaking through 3 to 5 to the defense line. The Russian troops have already detoured to the north of the Lviv Fortress. As long as they try to block east-west transportation routes, the Russian army has completed half of the mission of the battle. Then when the subsequent troops are in place, they can carry out the next step of action, whether it is to complete the encirclement of the Lviv Fortress area or continue to attack and attack to the Carpathian Mountains!&1t;/p>

"The Russians fought a little hard this time. It seems that our infantry division did not take any advantage when it met the Russian vanguard?" Prince Ruprecht asked after drinking a cup of coffee.&1t;/p>

"It's like this, especially the situation on the Eastern Front is a bit bad. The Romanian Legion has already made an intention to act. The Russians are a little appetite now and may form a clamp-shaped offensive with the Romanian Legion in the south. Therefore, His Highness Prince Leopold decided to lead three Bavarian divisions and six Austro-Hungarian divisions to block the Russian army on the Eastern Front. " Major General Hall said.&1t;/p>

"Let the troops that have not been put into the front line shrink and stabilize the formation. It is tolerant that the enemy's attacks can make some breakthroughs in the early stage. They can save the troops in their hands and take them back later. Don't worry." The prince was calm at this time, thinking that there would be no major mistakes in this arrangement. So, the rest should first understand why the Russian army's attack was so sharp, and then prescribe the right medicine.&1t;/p>

To be honest, if this wave of battles is like this, it is not enough power. If we simply talk about hard power, the prince's troops, plus the Bavarian Legion, which had not yet begun the war, and the Bohemian Legion was strong... This time, the prince mobilized 40% of his own troops (there is still one-third of them not in place at present), but there is only one breakthrough division, and the proportion of armored units to the total is estimated to be only one-quarter. The air force is only about one-third. As for the Austro-Hungarian Legion, this round of battle may not be as strong as the Bohemian Legion! You must know that the Bohemian Legion now has more than 20,000. The theoretical number of these two Austro-Hungarian Legion seems to be 360,000, but the actual number of in-place is about 320,000.&1t;/p>

If we look at the Russians' strength, it is three standard Russian legions and a series of strengthenings. Not only are there additional cavalry troops, but it also almost allowed the entire Russia to use the Demon Disintegration Technique to accumulate a round of heavy artillery and train cannons. After all, Russia is an empire, and it is still terrible to take out its wealth. It is normal to directly break through several layers of defense lines.&1t;/p>

Of course, it is wrong to say that the Russians use their troops to suppress them. After carefully studying the Russians' intelligence and tactics, the prince had to admit that the Russians did have unique features in offensive tactics this time. Even the prince thought it was not easy for the Russians to achieve this level.&1t;/p>

Russians are not good at making fine things, but they have a talent to make a very successful product after a series of combinations of very mediocre parts! We can call it a good system engineering. In terms of strategy and tactics, the Russians are also masters of "make cocktails", otherwise they would not be able to solve the classic strategy of large-scale combat.&1t;/p>

Compared with the steel torrents of later Russians, the prince felt that it was obviously more difficult for the Russians in this plane to do this level. Because the material conditions of the latter were really poor, the Russians were able to fight ten Stalin assaults because they had a huge overall advantage, both in terms of military strength, equipment and supplies. It is naturally easier to play such a battle with good cards, but what about this time? The power of the Russian Eastern Front is actually not stronger than that of the Bavarian Legion and the Austro-Hungarian Legion. It is really not easy to fight such a battle when material conditions are not sufficient!&1t;/p>

Russia put in the effort in this battle, not only because they overdraw the empire's war potential! It also because they spent several months studying the tactics of the Bavarian Legion and trying to develop a targeted tactic! The Russians finally chose to break through quickly, and tried their best to directly shock the entire defense line in the shortest time! If the Russians used moves like the Demon Disintegration Method in equipment preparation, then the same was true for this attack! In the first round, they had no reservations about the power in their hands and devoted them all!&1t;/p>

There was no reserve team, no deep breakthrough corps created by the Russians in later generations, and the subsequent exhibition corps, they were completely desperate to fight! They had the fastest moving, the best equipment, and the most elite soldiers to the front line! The Russians immediately invested in all their cavalry units in the battle between the two wings! Of course, this kind of cavalry is no longer the Cossacks in the past that used to show off their power with sabers and rifles, nor is it the simple horse-riding infantry in later generations.&1t;/p>

If you have to define one, it is more like a Russian assault force composed of horses and carriages, equipped with a large number of machine guns and light guns, plus a small number of cars and self-propelled artillery. If you have to find a unit that is quite similar to later generations, it is a bit like the practice of squeezing tanks into cavalry units after the establishment of the Soviet Union... Of course, the Russians now do not have so many tanks to plug in, and even the number of self-propelled artillery is very small. According to current news, except for the 1o7mm cannon weighing more than 2 tons, there is no artillery or thing that can enjoy the treatment of tracked land!&1t;/p>

Such a unit will definitely not be able to rush more than 50 kilometers a day like a real cavalry. In fact, without the interference of the enemy, walking 35 kilometers a day is already the limit, but this is still much faster than a simple infantry! The movement of the infantry division at level 1 is only about 25 kilometers a day. The former is 40% happier than the latter! Moreover, after all, it is a cavalry, after all, it is equipped with a horse. The ammunition carrying capacity of this unit is much greater than that of ordinary infantry units, which is why one division can concentrate nearly 200 machine gun carriages! This is not a trench war between the two sides in later generations! This is a mobile warfare! With each step forward of the troops, the difficulty of logistics supply has increased twice! The Russians must continue to break through the positions and then shock the entire defense line! Maintaining this level and wanting to have strong firepower, it has to be said that the Russians have done their best!&1t;/p>
Chapter completed!
