In the northern part of the Bolan Plain, Army Group A of the Germanic Imperial Army was fending off the onslaught of the Russian Imperial Army. At present, the remaining strength of Army Group A is only more than 600,000 people. However, they were attacked by millions of the Russian Imperial Army.
In the sky, from time to time, fighters of the Russian Imperial Air Force strafed and bombed the German Imperial Army, which not only further caused them huge losses. At the same time, the morale of the troops was greatly affected.
“Your Excellency Commander, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has telegraphed and asked us what we are going to do next?” reported General Marcos Hoffmann, Chief of Staff of Army Group.
The Russians’ offensive is too fierce, and we have absolute superiority in terms of strength, firepower, and even the combat effectiveness of the troops. And our troops have already suffered heavy losses. After a long period of fighting, our troops not only suffered heavy losses, but also the soldiers were very tired. Even the morale of the troops suffered a heavy blow. Under such circumstances, how can we resist the attack of the Russians?” General Hindenburg also looked frustrated.
In another time and space, he shined on the battlefield. Even, the Tsarist Imperial Army, which commanded a small number of troops on the Eastern Front, suffered heavy losses and could not be defeated.
However, in this time and space, 403 he no longer had such a chance. Because the enemy he is facing is much more powerful than another time and space. Even if the Germanic Empire gathered the main forces, it could not be defeated, let alone rely on him alone.
Under such circumstances, even if General Hindenburg has a high talent, there is nothing he can do!
General Marcos Hoffmann nodded repeatedly, the current situation is really bad for them.
“Tell His Royal Highness the Crown Prince that we are preparing to gradually retreat back to East Prussia. Otherwise, under the fierce attack of the Russians, we will pay a greater price. In that case, we really have no chance in this battle. General Hindenburg said.
“Yes, Your Excellency, Commander!” replied General Marcos Hoffmann.
“In addition, report our opinions to the Supreme High Command. What exactly to do next really needs to be decided by the Supreme High Command. General Hindenburg couldn’t help but be worried.
“Yes, Your Excellency Commander!” nodded General Marcos Hoffmann.
Obviously, the current situation has become very unfavorable for the German Imperial Army. And the high command of the Germanic Empire must also make a choice as soon as possible. Otherwise, the longer the time drags on, the greater the price they will pay. And this will be more and more unfavorable for the Germanic Empire.
And General Ludendorff, commander of Army Group C of the Germanic Empire, was even more decisive.
Originally, Army Group C was tasked with capturing the southern part of the Bolan Plain and preparing to cooperate with the Austro-Hungarian Army to encircle and annihilate the Western Front of the Russian Imperial Army.
However, the Western Front of the Tsarist Imperial Army had long been prepared, voluntarily abandoning a large number of defensive lines and positions, and shrinking the main forces to several major cities.
This made Army Group C speechless. This made the battle between Army Group C and the Imperial Russian Army not too intense. They did not engage in large-scale battles with the Russian Imperial Army in the southern part of the Bolan Plain, and the losses of troops were relatively small.
This time, in the face of a massive counterattack by the Tsarist Imperial Army, General Ludendorff knew very well that they could not resist. If you hold your ground here and fight to the death with the Tsarist Imperial Army. Then, it is very likely that the entire Army Group C will be in an extremely dangerous situation. It will even be besieged by the Russians and completely annihilated here.
Therefore, Army Group C, under the orders of General Ludendorf, was already fighting and retreating. Their losses were also the smallest of the three army groups of the Germanic Imperial Army.
However, even so, under the large-scale counterattack of the Russian (ABFA) Imperial Army, the Germanic Imperial Army in the Bolan Plain battlefield can obviously no longer survive. The choice of General Ludendorff is undoubtedly the most correct.
The Germanic Empire, Paulin, was located in the Supreme Command of the Imperial Palace. (Read violent novels, go on Feilu Fiction Network!)
After the outbreak of the war, in order to better command the troops in this vital war, Wilhelm II established the Supreme High Command in the Germanic Empire to take full responsibility for commanding the war.
It’s just that now the entire Supreme High Command is in a mess. Everyone, including Wilhelm II, felt great pressure. They didn’t seem to have expected that the battle situation would turn out like this.
Or rather, they never expected that the counterattack of the Russian Empire would be so sharp.
It had only been half a month since the battle began, and the Germanic Imperial Army had already paid a lot of losses again, and it could no longer hold on.
“Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asks, what to do next, whether to continue to hold the position or retreat?” asked Count Moltke Jr.
“What about Generals Hindenburg and Ludendorff, what do they suggest?” asked Wilhelm II.
“Both General Hindenburg and General Ludendorff believed that now our army had suffered heavy losses on the battlefield of the Bolan Plain. We were not able to defeat the Russians, which meant that our previous strategic objectives could not be accomplished. Now the Russians have gathered a large number of main forces ready to attack us. With them amassing heavy troops, we, who had already paid great losses, could not withstand the attack of the Russians at all.
If we continue to fight the Russians on the Bolan Plain, we can certainly inflict great losses on the Russians. But in the same way, our losses will not be small. This will put us in a very dangerous position on the entire Eastern Front.
Generals Hindenburg and Ludendorff chose to retreat, so that we could preserve our strength to the greatest extent. So that we can still have enough troops to defend against the Russians in the future. If the losses are too great, then we will not even have enough troops to defend the Eastern Front. The entire Eastern Front will become undefended for the Russians. ”
Count Moltke Jr. said.
Wilhelm II nodded, his face very ugly. Even if he doesn’t want to accept such a reality. However, this is the case, so that he has to admit it!
“Order Army Group A, Army Group B and Army Group C to abandon the territories captured this time and retreat on all fronts!”
