Baltic Fleet of the Imperial Russian Navy, fled without a fight. Even the shore-based aviation of the Imperial Russian Navy did not attack the fleet of the Third Reich Navy, which greatly shocked the Third Reich Navy.
You know, in order to ensure the safety of the fleet, when the Third Reich naval fleet arrived in the eastern Baltic Sea, the Third Reich Air Force dispatched more than two hundred BF-109 fighters to provide them with air cover. The purpose was to get air cover in time when the shore-based aviation of the Imperial Russian Navy attacked them.
At the same time, all the warships of the Third Reich Navy were also prepared for air defense.
On every battleship, the sailors are in strict formation. An anti-aircraft gun and a single anti-aircraft machine gun were aimed at the sky.
However, the Russians did not stop it, which undoubtedly surprised the Germans. It was as if a punch they had carefully prepared hit cotton.
However, the Russians did not prevent them from reinforcing East Prussia, which seemed to be a good thing for the Third Reich.
The besieged 7th and 9th Armies of the Third Reich Army had long been eager for reinforcements.
After the arrival of the 31st Army and the 32053rd Army of the Third Reich Army in East Prussia, they effectively alleviated their dilemma of insufficient troops, and the defensive line that was about to be unable to hold out was also restabilized by the addition of new forces.
But even so, under the siege of the 4th Army of the Russian Imperial Army and the bombing of a large number of fighters, the losses of the Third Reich Army were still very large.
At the same time, the top brass of the Third Reich was surprised by the abnormal behavior of the Russians.
“Your Excellency, the 31st and 32nd armies have landed in East Prussia and are already engaged in battle. However, the Russian offensive remained fierce, and the 7th, 9th, 31st and 32nd armies of the Imperial Army were fighting bloody battles with the Russians. The Russians have absolute superiority in fire and air support. This made the Imperial Army completely fight under the indiscriminate bombardment of the Russians, and the losses were still very large. The commander of the army, Marshal Brauchitsch, said.
Mustache nodded: “Anyway, our reinforcements managed to reach East Prussia.” Well, this is very beneficial for the empire. After reinforcements arrived, we could hold out longer in East Prussia. If the Russians want to conquer East Prussia, it will be even more difficult! We can also be there, pinning down more Russians. Even, inflict greater losses on them. ”
“Yes, Your Excellency!” Marshal Brauchitsch replied.
“Your Excellency, the fleet of the Russians has retreated to the vicinity of Petersburg. In the face of the great strength of the Imperial Navy, they chose to escape. The commander of the navy, Marshal Raeder, looked very excited.
The mustache nodded repeatedly: “The Imperial Navy should strengthen the defense of the East Prussian coast and ensure the safety of the sea supply line.” At the same time, it is necessary to prepare for air defense. The shore-based aviation of the Russians is no small threat to the Imperial Navy! ”
“Yes, Your Excellency!” Marshal Raeder replied.
Next, the Air Force will also intensify its competition with the Russians for air supremacy. This is directly related to the safety of the naval fleet and whether our ground forces can hold out longer in East Prussia! Mustache reminded.
“Yes, Your Excellency!” The commander of the Air Force, Marshal Herman Gorin, nodded repeatedly.
However, the air forces of both sides continued to break out large-scale air battles over East Prussia and over the Baltic Sea.
Huge losses, so that the Air Force of the Third Reich suffered great losses.
Even if they also cost the Tsarist Imperial Air Force a lot of losses. However, if it continues to be consumed like this, I am afraid that the Air Force of the Third Reich will be the first to hold on!
Now the Third Reich has accelerated the production of aircraft as much as possible (ADFD) and increased the training of reserve pilots. However, the replenishment speed of the Third Reich Air Force was still far from keeping up with the speed of losses. So much so that the Air Force of the Third Reich is now fighting less and less!
If the sun does not set, the Imperial Air Force and the Lighthouse Nation Army Air Force cannot provide them with support as soon as possible, I am afraid that soon the entire European sky will be under the control of the Russians.
Little by little, the Russian army and the Third Reich army fought fiercely in East Prussia.
The four armies of the Russian army, supported by their own strong artillery and air fire, constantly advanced towards Königsberg. Of course, in order to avoid being hit by the naval guns of the Third Reich Navy, the armies of the Imperial Russian Army were also required not to approach the coastline for twenty kilometers. In this case, even if the Third Reich Navy’s naval guns were powerful, they would not pose a threat to the Russian army.
The battle was extremely brutal and brutal, and the Third Reich Army was subjected to heavy artillery fire from the Tsarist Imperial Army and bombardment by the Air Force, so that it was very difficult for them to resist the attack of the Tsarist Imperial Army. At every moment, a large number of soldiers were killed. (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) ）
This caused the losses of the Third Reich Army to begin to soar.
In less than a week, General Maximilian von Wix, commander of Army Group East Prussia of the Third Reich, had to ask for help again from the Third Reich.
And in order to be able to hold East Prussia, the mustache had to order continued reinforcements of East Prussia.
The 33rd Army and the 34th Army were sent to the East Prussian battlefield.
But these forces have likewise not been able to hold out for long.
By the end of July, the six armies under the East Prussian Army Group of the Third Reich had lost a lot of money. Among them, the 7th Army and the 9th Army did not even have half of the troops left. This made the war situation in the whole of East Prussia even more difficult.
And when Mustache was ready to continue sending reinforcements to East Prussia, it was opposed by the top brass of the Army of the Third Reich.
“Your Excellency, we cannot send reinforcements to East Prussia, which has become the graveyard of the Imperial Army. The Russians are too cunning, they are using East Prussia, constantly devouring our living strength, constantly consuming our strength. If we continue to send reinforcements, we will undoubtedly fall into the trap of the Russians! This will make the already very valuable power of the empire be consumed in vain. “The commander-in-chief of the army, Marshal Brauchitsch, was very resolute.
