Great Warlord: The Second Ancestor of the Empire

Chapter 738 The beginning of a comprehensive counterattack

In fact, not only Moscow, but almost the entire eastern battlefield changed offensive and defensive positions.

The Northern Army had joined Timoshenko and launched a counterattack in St. Petersburg.

At present, the army of the Kingdom of Finland has been repelled, forcing the army of the Kingdom of Finland to retreat to the original national border.

Timoshenko felt that now was not the best time to deal with the Kingdom of Finland. Their enemy was mainly the Second Army of the Hans Empire.

As a result, Timoshenko turned his troops and began to fight the Second Army of the Hans Empire.

At this time, the Second Army had been fighting continuously for several months. The soldiers themselves were exhausted. The logistics supply line was also slow due to the bombing of the Rakshasa Empire. There were also varying degrees of material shortages on the front line.

Therefore, facing Timoshenko, who had hundreds of thousands of fresh troops, the Hans Empire also began to retreat.

But to say that the fastest retreat was the Third Army attacking Volgograd.

Volgograd is located in the southern part of the Rakshasa Empire, close to Central Asia, and is also the closest war zone to the Bactria Empire.

Since Daxia has already broken up with the Hans Empire, it will naturally not be polite to him.

As a result, the Northwest Army of the Daxia Empire directly gathered more than one million soldiers and went directly to the Battle of Volgograd.

This means that the Third Army of the Hans Empire not only has to face the more than 200,000 soldiers of the Rakshasa Empire originally stationed in Volgograd, but also the southern army of the Rakshasa Empire who came to support the Rakshasa Empire.

They also had to face the northwest army of the Daxia Empire, which numbered more than one million.

Moreover, the Daxia Empire also sent Zhang Yanyu, who liked to fight and was a bearded man.

The result was a crushing defeat.

Zhang Yanyu was also the first senior officer to start his career with Lin Yi.

During the war to regain the four provinces outside the customs, he dared to lead a division and a group of horse bandits outside the customs to play tactical interludes with the Sakura Kingdom, which was stronger than him at the time.

Directly defeat the Sakura Kingdom on the Korean Peninsula and cannot find the north.

Later, during World War I, he brought the First Armored Division to Central Asia.

So after that, Lin Yi made Zhang Yanyu the commander of the Empire's Northwest Group Army.

Then the war started again, and Zhang Yanyu repeatedly asked Lin Yi to transfer him to fight in the south, even if he was to be a private soldier.

But Lin Yi has been keeping him in the Northwest Army Group until now.

It can be said that Lin Yi left Zhang Yanyu in the Northwest Army just for today.

And Zhang Yanyu did not disappoint Lin Yi. He gave the Hansi a heavy blow as soon as he came up.

Many people say that Guderian's blitzkrieg is very powerful, but don't forget that Guderian was not yet an adult when Zhang Yanyu played blitzkrieg and interspersed tactics with the Sakura people on the Korean Peninsula in East Asia.

When Zhang Yanyu led the First Armored Division through Central Asia, Guderian was only a low-level officer.

Don't say that the blitzkrieg theory was proposed by Guderian. Go and take a look at his theory. Which of these horse bandits is not clear?

If you are a horse bandit, if you can't even surround a fat sheep, how can you still rob? Those fat sheep have long since run away with the money.

Therefore, Zhang Yanyu may not be as good as Guderian in terms of theoretical knowledge. After all, Zhang Yanyu has never been to school before. Not even graduating from a regular military academy.

I just went to a military academy for further training, but if you want to talk about actual practice, Zhang Yanyu has been playing this game for more than 50 years. He became a bandit in his teens. Doesn’t he have more experience than you, Guderian?

Moreover, Zhang Yanyu's opponent now is not Guderian, but Paulus.

This is not to say that Paulus was inferior to Guderian, nor is it to say that Paulus lacked personal commanding ability.

Rather, it is said that Paulus met Zhang Yanyu and the Northwest Army under his command very tragically.

The Northwest Army's previous regular strength was 60. Then because Lin Yi placed the Nuclear Weapons Research Institute in the northwest, in order to ensure the safety here, the empire strengthened the northwest army.

After that, because of the war. The Northwest Army was reinforced for the second time.

This resulted in a configuration of the Northwest Army with more than 118 million people, 5 armored divisions, and more than 1500 tanks.

In addition there were two air divisions.

Therefore, Zhang Yanyu gave Paulus a heavy blow as soon as he came up.

As soon as Zhang Yanyu came up, he divided the five armored divisions into three parts, and then assigned a mechanized division, totaling more than 30 people, to divide Paulus.

The Third Army of the Hans Empire led by Paulus was cut.

Then the infantry behind them was asked to encircle and suppress the cut and surrounded Third Army.

As a result, it only took 15 days to defeat the Third Army and force it to retreat kilometers.

After Zhang Yanyu defeated the Third Army, he did not choose to pursue it, but turned around and gave the Second Army a blow.

Cooperating with the Central Army of the Rakshasa Empire in Moscow, the Second Army was defeated.

After doing all this, Zhang Yanyu united with the central army of the Rakshasa Empire and began to attack the Hans Empire.

Facing the counterattack, the first unlucky person was Ermao.

For this rebellious son who holds the benefits of the Rakshasa Empire and the Bupai Republic, but always thinks about rebellion.

This time Vladimir was not polite. After occupying Kiev, he began to purge the top leaders of the Ermao rebels.

At the same time, the preferential treatment given to Ermao in the past has been reduced and high-intensity supervision has been implemented.

From then on, the separatist forces within Ermao no longer had room to grow.

At the same time, when Timoshenko in the north saw the victory of the Central Army and the unstable morale within the First Army of the Hans Empire opposite, he launched a series of counterattack plans against the First Army.

Successfully defeated the First Army, forcing them to withdraw from the Baltic coast and fall back into East Prussia.

Since then, the war has returned to the Hans Empire.

However, for the sake of safety, Brother Temujin stopped temporarily after arriving at the border of the Hans Empire.

On the one hand, he needs to wait for material supplies, and on the other hand, he also needs to wait for the central and southern legions to clear out the allies of the Hans Empire first.

Such as Romania, Bulgaria and other allies.

In August 1934, the Rakshasa Empire and the Northwest Bactrian Army cleared and occupied Romania and Bulgaria.

At this time, the war with the Kingdom of Hungary began.

Now that the Rakshasa Empire has fully recovered their lost territory, they have begun to launch an attack on the Hans Empire.

At the same time, the Zhou Chuan Army in North Africa won the North African Campaign. Rommel's North African Army was defeated by the Zhou Chuan Army. The remaining troops retreated back to Italy with the help of the John Empire and the Royal Navy of the Kingdom of Italy.

At this time, Zhou Chuanjun also faced a choice, whether to continue westward, attack French West Africa, and control the south coast of Gibraltar, or with the help of the Third Combined Fleet, cross the Mediterranean and attack Sicily, forcing the Kingdom of Italy to withdraw from the war.
