Chapter 308: Song Dynasty mastered German military tactics? Boss Cao: I love him so much!

Liu Zheng imagined the scene in his mind.

Five thousand German troops were divided into 100 combat teams.

Each group has 50 people.

Let them defend a small stronghold.

Liu Zheng believes.

Most of the German troops should continue to fight.

Even if surrounded by a large Soviet force, they would be able to hold their ground with fortifications and cause trouble for the Soviet advance.

But if we take 5000 soldiers from the Song Dynasty.

If divided into 100 combat teams.

So these 50-man combat teams were set up in the wilderness with no one to supervise them.

Facing the tide of enemy attacks.

After finding himself surrounded.

Will you persist in resisting?

Or just scatter?

But it’s really hard to say.

After being reminded by Meng Gong.

Liu Zheng also basically recognized it.

Model's support point tactics in later generations.

Very good indeed.

But it's not something that ordinary people can afford.

Without an elite, strong army with strong fighting spirit and able to maintain contact with the outside world.

Even if you know the support point tactics.

I can't play it either.

However, Meng Gong also added:

"In fact, it's our Song Dynasty's defense."

“To some extent, it can also be seen as a support point.”

"Our defense line is also composed of key support points such as Xiangyang."

"It's just that there is a qualitative difference between the combat quality of our current soldiers and future soldiers."

"So our support points will be larger in scale and relatively fewer in number."

"We can't set up multiple support points on a broad defense line like the Germans on the sky tent did."

"And at each support point, multiple lines of defense are set up."

"Each support point should have the ability to conduct independent defensive operations."

"At present, the Song Dynasty can only rely on urban fortresses as support points."

"Use a small number of support points to build the core of the defense line."

“So even if we can’t learn all the supporting points of the later German army, we can still learn some of them.”

"This section of the sky needs to be watched carefully."

……

Not only Meng Gong and Liu Zheng.

Many ancient people were also discussing the support point tactics given on the sky.

There are a lot of high-level coaches.

He also realized the biggest limitation that prevented his army from using the tactics of later generations.

In fact, it is the quality of the soldiers.

When you have a group of high-level soldiers.

Many tactics can be executed naturally.

And the sky continues.

【It can be said that when the Soviet army attacked. 】

[These support points arranged by Model gave the Soviet army a lot of headaches. The attack was difficult and slow, and the casualties were huge.]

[In January 1942, the First Battle of Rzhev officially began. ]

【During the First Battle of Rzhev.】

[The Soviet Union's Kalinin Front and Western Front attacked the Rzhev front with a total of more than 100 million troops. ]

[And airborne troops were dispatched. ]

【Under the double-sided attack of the airborne troops on the German rear, the southern part of Vyazma was successfully occupied.】

[It can be said that a very obvious advantage has been achieved. ]

[At this time, Model had just taken office and had no time to build a very solid defense line. ]

【Plus, there is a serious shortage of troops. 】

[Even Model was unable to save the situation.]

[We can only carefully gather our forces and do our best to protect the most important lines of defense. ]

[Avoid the German army from being divided, surrounded and annihilated.] [It seems that they are about to collapse.]

【Hitler finally realized that the situation in Rzhev was critical and sent reserve troops to support it.】

[Including three armored divisions, three infantry divisions, and several anti-aircraft artillery battalions. ]

[This also includes the SS's ace troops. ]

[Imperial Division! ]

【With the replenishment of living forces. 】

[Although the total force is still at a clear disadvantage, the 9th Army launched a beautiful counterattack! ]

[Model's magnificent performance of mobile warfare divided and surrounded the Soviet troops attacking Rzhev.]

[The Soviet 10th and 33rd Armies, which attacked most fiercely, were surrounded.]

[In the end, Model wiped out two Soviet armies in one fell swoop.]

[During the period when the two armies were surrounded, an extremely brutal war took place]

[In this battle, the Soviet army suffered more than 20 casualties, and more than 50 soldiers were wounded or captured! ]

[The elite 33rd Army of the Soviet Army was completely annihilated, and the commander-in-chief of the army committed suicide after his defeat.]

The sky curtain briefly tells the story of the First Battle of Rzhev.

Cooperate with the given battle line map.

It can be seen that the Soviet army fought very effectively at the beginning.

In addition, Model had just joined the 9th Army at that time and had not had time to set up a defense line.

So at one point the combat mission was almost completed.

But at a critical moment.

The Germans sent several divisions to support them.

Model used the support troops very well, hitting the key points accurately.

It achieved an incredibly brilliant battle-to-damage ratio.

The defense mission was completed perfectly.

This naturally attracted praise from many ancient generals.

Huo Qubing said happily:
"Look, although the sky shows that the German army suffered defeat in Moscow, Leningrad, and Stalingrad."

"But in fact, the German army's advantage is very obvious."

"The Soviet army in the field is no match at all."

"But this sky curtain must have a bias, always focusing on those battles where the German army failed."

"Look at the Battle of Rzhev."

"The Soviet army deployed a million troops, but ended up annihilating two armies. Even the army commander-in-chief died."

“This record is really tragic.”

Late Han Dynasty.

Cao Cao saw the schematic diagram given on the sky curtain.

The German arrows indiscriminately killed the Soviet troops.

Model first used a small number of troops to defend against the Soviet Union's million-strong army.

After receiving a small amount of support.

It perfectly defeated the two major Soviet offensive fronts.

Cao Cao couldn't help but praise Model's command level.

"This Model is truly a tiger general!"

"Why is he Hitler's general again?"

"Although it was a defensive battle, the Soviets were able to fight and suffered heavy losses, and they were able to counter-encircle the Soviets and destroy two army groups."

"This is truly the style of a top general!"

"I love him so much!"

Southern Song Dynasty.

Even Meng Gong couldn't help but look at Model's brilliant achievements.

Meng Gong was also thinking.

How to defend against the Mongolian army.

Just like Model did, cut off the Mongolian army's key supply lines.

This will enable them to encircle their front-line troops.

But Meng Gong also knew that this was very difficult.

Because during World War II, the German army was able to defeat the Soviet army in field battles.

And the Song Dynasty troops led by himself.

In a field battle against the Mongolian cavalry, anyone who could hold off for a while would be considered an elite force.

It can be said.

Basically, all the famous generals in ancient times, after seeing this, had a relatively high opinion of Model.

I think he is very good and has the qualities of a great general.
