Jagged Germany

Chapter 196: bad russian

?? August 9th, Königsberg in East Prussia.

?? It has been several days since Qin Tian arrived here, and the entire 8th Army of the German Imperial Army has been mobilized. Ten infantry divisions plus one armored division are already full. The total force reached more than 180,000 people.

??The current 8th Army can be described as strong and powerful. Not only has the firepower of the troops been strengthened, it is equivalent to being armed to the teeth. Also formed the world's first armored division. Qin Tian sometimes thinks, isn't this really bullying the Russians? After all, the Russians have no advantage at all except for their military strength. Especially in terms of weapons and equipment, the two sides are one in the sky and the other in the ground.

??The Russian government did not expect the war to break out so soon, so they were not prepared at all. So much so that their mobilization efficiency is low, and even the weapons of the troops cannot be guaranteed. Many Russian soldiers had to share a rifle. Only after the comrades-in-arms are killed can they pick up the rifle and continue fighting.

?? This is undoubtedly very unfair to Russian soldiers. Because of the government's inaction, they can only meet powerful enemies unarmed. What is the difference between this style of play and letting them die?

??Of course, from the standpoint of the German Empire, Qin Tian naturally wished that the Russian army would be as weak as possible. Only in this way can the German Empire be able to defeat Russia at the least cost and win a standing victory.

The news that the battlecruiser "Moltke" of the German Navy sank the battlecruiser "Lion" of the British Navy and scared away the battlecruiser "Royal Princess" has already been sent back to China. . Marshal Earl Tirpitz even sent a special telegram to Qin Tian, ??thanking him for his support of the Imperial Navy. Without Qin Tian, ??how could the Imperial Navy have grown so powerful in such a short period of time, let alone sinking the British battlecruiser 'Lion'.

??After receiving the telegram, Qin Tian finally breathed a sigh of relief. The German navy was able to gain the upper hand at the beginning of the war, which undoubtedly shows that his efforts over the years have not been in vain!

"Your Highness, the navy can be regarded as elated. Over the years, the navy has been suppressed by the Germans. They have always been suffocated. Now, the strength of the imperial navy is well known." The deputy of the 8th Army Commander Admiral Hindenburg said with a smile.

??Although Qin Tian is the nominal commander of the 8th Army, in fact, General Hindenburg has always been in charge of the daily affairs of the 8th Army. And Hindenburg is also worthy of Qin Tian's trust in him, and he managed the 8th Army in an orderly manner. The reorganization and training of the troops is also in place. It can be said that the current Eighth Army is more than twice as powerful as when Qin Tian took over.

?? "The war has already begun, and it will soon be time for our 8th Army to become famous all over the world." Major General Ludendorff, chief of staff of the 8th Army, looked confident. He is very confident in the combat effectiveness of the current Eighth Army. If the 8th Army can stop the Russian attack on the Eastern Front with its own strength, or even defeat the Russians in one fell swoop, it will definitely give the 8th Army a high reputation. At that time, these generals will all benefit greatly from it. Ludendorff also wanted to get an exceptional promotion again, from major general to lieutenant general! After all, generally speaking, the chiefs of staff of the German Army's corps are all lieutenant generals.

?? "Haha, I also believe that this battle will be our 8th Legion's battle of fame. The 8th Legion will let the whole world see our great strength!" Qin Tian laughed.

?? "Your Highness, the Russian people we invited are here." The head guard reported to Qin Tian.

?? "Well, let them come in." Qin Tian nodded.

?? "General Hindenburg, General Ludendorff, our Russian friends are here. I believe they will bring us good news." Qin Tian smiled.

?? "Your Highness, is it really necessary to support those Russians? You know, they are dangerous elements and enemies of the capitalist world." Admiral Hindenburg reminded.

?? "Don't worry, General, I have a measure." Qin Tian also knew how dangerous it would be if the Russian cloth party took control of Russia. However, he had no other choice. Russia is too vast, too vast for any enemy to defeat them. The former Napoleon the Great could not do this, and the later Hitler could not do it either. The current Qin Tian couldn't do the same. Therefore, Qin Tian can only use other methods to cause turmoil in Russia. In this case, they may be able to win the war at the least cost. As for whether the cloth party will in turn threaten Germany once it grows up, Qin Tian will not consider this for the time being. In addition, Qin Tian also has self-confidence. Even if the cloth party really does it in Russia, it will not be a worry at that time. Because, after winning this war, Germany will definitely be able to develop into a superpower. At that time, it will be very easy to destroy Bu'e.

??General Hindenburg and Major General Ludendorff stopped persuading Qin Tian. They also knew that Qin Tian naturally dared to do that, so he must have been prepared.

?? Soon, a middle-aged Russian who was as tall as he was wearing notation entered Qin Tian's office led by the chief guard.

?? "His Royal Highness, Your Excellency General, hello." The Russian envoy said neither humble nor overbearing.

?? "Mr. Joseph, hello, long time no see." Qin Tian smiled.

?? "Thanks to His Highness the Crown Prince for supporting us all the time. Your Excellency the Leader asked me to convey his greetings to Your Highness." Joseph said.

??Qin Tian has been secretly supporting the activities of the Russian cloth party since a few years ago. It is precisely because of Qin Tian's support that the cloth party can develop very rapidly.

??Of course, the people who set up the party also know that cooperating with Qin Tian is basically seeking skin from a tiger. However, facing the suppression of them by the tsarist government, they had no other choice but to accept Qin Tian's support. For them, the most important thing is to overthrow the rule of the tsarist government first. For this, they can pay a lot, even if it is the interests of the country.

??In other people's eyes, this is absolutely unimaginable. However, Qin Tian was not surprised at all.

?? "Mr. Joseph, please convey my greetings to Leader Ulyanov. I look forward to having a formal meeting with him one day." Qin Tian said with a smile.

??Of course Joseph agreed, but perhaps only he knew what he was thinking. After all, in the minds of these party members, the imperial prince like Qin Tian is also someone they should defeat.
