Jagged Germany

Chapter 1459: Surrounding Joseph Grad (ask for a monthly ticket)

"Your Majesty, Army Group D and Army Group E have joined forces to wipe out the Russian Caucasus Front Army and the Southern Front Army. The Caucasus Front Army can be regarded as annihilated. Only a very small number of troops from the Southern Front Army have fled back to Josephgrad. On the southern battlefield, we already have an absolute advantage and are about to win the final victory!" Marshal Manstein, the Imperial Army Minister and Chief of Staff, reported to Qin Tian.

Qin Tian closed the report in his hand and nodded: "Yes, Army Group D and Army Group E have performed very well this time. Army Group E in particular, after destroying the Caucasus Front Army, also thought of blocking the Russian Army South. The rear of the Front Army. Otherwise, once the main force of the Russian Southern Front Army escapes back to Josephgrad, the consequences will be more serious."

?? "Yes, Your Majesty." Marshal Manstein replied.

?? "General Rundstedt, although he served as the commander of the army group for a short period of time, whether it was the Middle East war last year or this time, his performance was very good." Marshal Manstein continued.

??Qin Tian agreed with this, the ability of Admiral Lundstedt is beyond doubt.

?? "When Josephgrad is captured, I will consider giving him a marshal's scepter." Qin Tian said.

?? "I believe General Rundstedt will be overjoyed." Marshal Manstein said.

??Qin Tian smiled, for his generals, Qin Tian has always been very generous. As long as they can bring Germany one victory after another. Then, he will definitely not be stingy with the marshal's scepter.

??The German D Army Group and E Army Group, after ending the battle against the Russian Army's Southern Front, began to advance eastward along the Don River.

?? In fact, they were not intercepted by the Russian army at all along the way. With the Russian Caucasus Front and Southern Front being annihilated one after another, the Russian Josephgrad Front has also been terrified. They were afraid of being attacked by the Germans, so they began to shrink their troops.

The Russian Josephgrad Front Army is also a powerful force, under the jurisdiction of the 8th, 27th, 47th, 51st, 52nd, 54th, and 59th infantry armies and the 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, and 9th infantry armies and The 3rd and 5th Guards Tank Armies. It has a total of 13 infantry armies and two tank armies, with a total strength of nearly two million people.

?? However, many units of the Russian Army's Josephgrad Front Army have just been formed. Especially those group armies that start with guards, many soldiers are even half-grown children. They had just come out of school and joined the army. Although these soldiers were still very young, their fanatical support for Joseph made them brave soldiers. Of course, once on the battlefield, these soldiers who lack combat literacy may suffer heavy casualties.

??But the Russians don't care so much anymore. As long as they can win the war, they even want to arm everyone and send them to the battlefield. No matter how big the sacrifice is, he doesn't care. As long as the war can be won, that is enough.

??The armored units of the German Army Group D and Army Group E were the first to advance to the outskirts of Josephgrad. Five armored divisions and 10 mechanized infantry divisions formed the Iron Torrent. Although the Russian army also has two tank armies here, there are still many mechanized units. But facing the armored forces of the German army, the Russian army did not have the courage to fight at all.

?? Subsequently, the German army and the army of the slave country arrived in Josephgrad one after another. Surrounded Josephgrad.

??Josephgrad is located on the Volga River, with the Volga River to the east. Therefore, as long as the German army surrounds Josephgrad in the other three directions, it can be regarded as encircling Josephgrad. Of course, the Russian army can also transport troops' war materials to Josephgrad through the Volga River.

General Lundstedt, the commander of the German Army Group E, proposed to send a force to cross the river from the lower reaches of the Volga River, capture Volgasky on the opposite side of Josephgrad, and cut off the channel for the Russian army to transport troops and war supplies to Josephgrad. . However, it was rejected by the General Staff.

?? Kaiser Qin Tian hopes that the German army can continue to attack Josephgrad, and then let more Russian troops invest in Josephgrad. In this case, Josephgrad can also be turned into a flesh and blood mill, constantly consuming the vital strength of the Russian army. By the time the Russian army can't afford it, the whole of Russia will almost perish. Germany easily won the battle.

??After receiving the reply from the General Staff, the Russian Army Group D and Army Group E had to turn their attention to the attack on Josephgrad. Fortunately, these two army groups have a large number of servants. Although it is not possible to completely use the servant army to attack Josephgrad, there is no doubt that these servants will become the main force of the German army to attack Josephgrad.

?? Putting a large number of servants in the brutal street fighting can effectively reduce the casualties of the German army. After all, defeating Russia is only the first goal of Germany in this world war. Next, Germany has more enemies to defeat. Therefore, in the war, it is necessary to control the casualties of the troops as much as possible.

??The German D Army Group and E Group Army Group surrounded Josephgrad, making the Russian troops stationed here feel like a big enemy. General Yemimenko, commander of the Josephgrad Front Army, Khrushchev, political commissar, and Lieutenant General Bogin, chief of staff, held combat meetings again and again to discuss the next battle.

"Comrades, the Germans have come. Just as they surrounded Moscow, they also surrounded Josefgrad. This city is named after the great leader. Therefore, we must not let the Germans People occupy this city. We will fight the Germans here, resist their attacks, and defeat their plots. I believe that under the leadership of the great Comrade Joseph, we will be able to win this battle Yes!" Khrushchev, political commissar of the Josefgrad Front, said.

??Although, Khrushchev is not a military chief. However, as a member of the Russian Politburo, he is the highest-ranking person in the entire Josephgrad Front Army. To some extent, he is the supreme leader of the Josephgrad Front Army.

??A group of generals of the Josephgrad Front nodded repeatedly. They also hope to be able to resist the German attack in the city named after Joseph.
