Under the fire thunders, weather gradually gloomy, the distant place rips to kill the slogan to be lingering on faintly, perhaps tomorrow morning many several thousand corpses. 在炮火轰鸣下,天色渐渐暗淡了下来,远处撕杀呐喊声不绝于耳,或许明天早上又将多几千具尸体。 Marshal Moltke who just arrived in the frontline, took up the telescope, stubbornly is staring at the front. Because the distance is too far, can only see the thick smoke that the shell explodes. 刚刚抵达前线的毛奇元帅,拿起了望远镜,死死的盯着前方。由于距离太远,只能看到炮弹爆炸的浓烟。 After moment time, Moltke sighs. The situation compared with him estimated that wants bad many, from the fire, knows that the Russia person is today we are no longer as we have been. 片刻功夫后,毛奇叹了一口气。情况比他预想中要糟糕的多,从炮火上来看,就知道俄国人已经是今非昔比了。 The night falls, both sides tacit stopped the fight. The cold wind starts to get angry howlingly, as if must awaken the soul that died. 夜幕降临,双方默契的停止了战斗。阴风开始怒嚎,似乎要唤醒死去的灵魂。 Marshal Moltke who in general army headquarters, comes to supervise combat started to act crazy. 普军指挥部内,前来督战的毛奇元帅开始发飙了。 „ War broke out for a week, a little Brest has not taken, was really one crowd of waste. “战争爆发一个星期了,一个小小的布列斯特都没有拿下来,真是一群废物。 Speech! The ordinary period, aren't you very competent? Is supercilious, was boasting three months defeat Russia, review troops six months to St. Petersburg. 说话啊！平常时期,你们不是很能干么？一个个目中无人,吹嘘着三个月击败俄罗斯,半年之内到圣彼得堡阅兵。 Now, a Brest cannot take. Do not say that went to St. Petersburg to review troops, got down again, the strategy of cut-off Dnieper River must go bankrupt. ” 现在呢,一个布列斯特都拿不下来。不要说去圣彼得堡阅兵了,再这么下去,我们的切断第聂伯河的战略都要破产了。” Lowering the head that people listens respectfully to the instruction, without means weaponry hits is truly bad. 众人一副聆听教诲的低着头,没办法这场仗打的确实很糟糕。 According to the plan of General Staff Headquarters, general army should attack and capture Brest in three days, then goes south to capture Kiev along the Dnieper River, shuts off the aquatic supplies channel of Russian force. 按照总参谋部的计划,普军应该在三天之内攻克布列斯特,然后沿着第聂伯河南下夺取基辅,切断俄军的水上补给通道。 The core of this strategy is quickly, Russia person anything lacks, does not lack the soldier. Once the Tsar government responded, lots of reinforcements catch up, the war was not easy to hit. 这一战略的核心就是要快,俄国人什么都缺,就是不缺兵。一旦沙皇政府反应了过来,大量的援兵赶来,战争就不好打了。 This is the historic experience lesson, the fact of first Near East War China , UK law Allied armies blood, told the world to be fully-armed, the logistics perfect Russian force was an unyielding person. 这是历史经验教训,第一次近东战争中英法联军用血的事实,告诉了世界全副武装、后勤完善的俄军是硬骨头。 The commodity that so long as the Dnieper River in the Russian force hand, Austria benefits can transport/fortune continuously, the war will evolve the battle of attrition. 只要第聂伯河在俄军手中,奥地利的物资就可以源源不断的运过来,战争就会演变成消耗战。 Soviet Southwestern Front commander Hohenlohe Ingelfingen braces oneself to reply: „ Marshal, the enemy imagines compared with us wants stubborn many. In these seven days of time, we fought directly dozens times. 西南方面军司令官霍恩洛厄・英格尔芬根硬着头皮回答道:“元帅阁下,敌人比我们想象中要顽固的多。在这七天时间里,我们正面交手了数十次。 Although most of the time, is we gets the winning side, but must be still less optimistic. The military supplement of Russian force is quick, has traded three waves with the army that we battle. 尽管大多数时候,都是我们占据上风,但总得来说仍然不容乐观。俄军的兵力补充非常快,和我们交战的部队已经换了三波。 You possibly do not believe, they are not only defending stubbornly same place, but also often starts counter-attacks. 你可能不相信,他们不仅在原地固守,还时常发动反攻。 According to investigating the information, guards the Russian force of Brest to have 80,000 people fully, the Volyn area also 100,000 Russian force, not to mention the rear area also has the continuous reinforcements. 根据侦查到的情报,守卫布列斯特一线的俄军足有八万人,沃伦州地区还有十万俄军,更不用说后方还有源源不断的援军。 Opposite Russian force commander is one group of lunatics, does not regard a matter the life of soldier, every so often exchanges pieces with us intentionally. 对面俄军指挥官就是一群疯子,根本就不把士兵的生命当成一回事,很多时候故意和我们兑子。 In short one week, our Soviet Southwestern Front lost the forces of two divisions. In a short time, wants to make the breakthrough here, almost not possibly. ” 短短的一个星期内,我们西南方面军就损失了两个师的兵力。短时间内,想要在这里取得突破,几乎没有可能。” Without the means that strategic contraption is unable to keep secret. general army wants to sever the Dnieper River, the Russian force naturally does not comply. 没办法,战略这玩意儿根本就无法保密。普军想要切断第聂伯河,俄军自然不答应了。 As the enemy, naturally must stare at the opposite party stubbornly. Especially after the airship army is born, every day has the Russia airship border crossing detection, the large share military transfers, keeps secret very much difficultly. 作为敌人,自然要死死的盯着对方。尤其是飞艇部队诞生后,每天都有俄国飞艇越境侦查,大股的兵力调动,很难进行保密。 Moltke deeply frowned, he also knows that cannot take the Brest fort, primary responsibility not in these military officers. In the battlefield must speak by the strength, general army does not have the overwhelming advantage, falling into refuses to compromise is very normal. 毛奇眉头紧锁,他也知道拿不下布列斯特要塞,主要责任不在这些军官。战场上要靠实力说话,普军没有压倒性的优势,陷入僵持是很正常的。 Strategic planning of General Staff Headquarters formulation: Deceptive attack Estonia, makes to march the stance attraction Russian force main force of St. Petersburg, to capture Kiev creation opportunity. 总参谋部制定的战略计划:佯攻爱沙尼亚,做出进军圣彼得堡的架势吸引俄军主力,为夺取基辅创造机会。 However, the plan has not changed quickly. The goal of attraction Russian force main force was realized, captures Kiev first step caught. 然而,计划没有变化快。吸引俄军主力的目标实现了,夺取基辅的第一步就卡住了。 Good strategy, cannot support the Tsar government soldiers to be many. The garrison troops of Russia person, initiating general army quantity of attack are more, matter was awkward. 再好的战略,也架不住沙皇政府兵多。俄国人的守军,比发起进攻的普军数量还要多,事情就尴尬了。 Not is only here, in the entire front the Russian force force gets the advantage. Used the complete strength, federation collected on 750,000 armies the battlefield, but opposite Russian force quantity has surpassed 1 million. 不光是这里,整条战线上俄军兵力都占优势。使出了全部的力气,普波联邦才凑齐了七十五万军队上战场,而对面的俄军数量早就超过了一百万。 Moltke shakes the head: „ We do not have so many time, if cannot approach before the winter captures Kiev, cuts off the traffic line of Dnieper River, next year will be big on the trouble. 毛奇摇了摇头:“我们没有那么多时间,如果不能在冬天来临前夺取基辅,切断第聂伯河的运输线,来年就麻烦大了。 No matter difficult, we must complete this strategy. Otherwise the enemy, will close right up against the strength superiority, drags us directly. 不管有多困难,我们都必须要完成这一战略。要不然敌人,就会靠着兵力优势,直接拖死我们。 The truth told you, was not only the attack of Brest is blocked, in the entire battlefield was so. 实话告诉你们,不光是布列斯特一线的进攻受阻,整个战场上都是如此。 In the past ten years, the enemy built massive fortification. Do so many defense lines, how possibly tear to pieces in a short time? ” 在过去的十年里,敌人修筑了大量的防御工事。这么多防线,怎么可能在短时间内撕破呢？” Said here, Moltke sneered, ridiculed: „What's wrong, did this fear?” 说道这里,毛奇冷笑一声,讥讽道:“怎么,这就怕了？” „Did not fear!” “不怕！” „Did not fear!” “不怕！” ...... …… As one group of war-mongers, possibly so to be how easy to fear? The war just started, meeting difficultly is normal. Man of optimism, does not think that in short one week, can defeat the Russian force. 作为一帮战争贩子,怎么可能这么容易怕呢？战争才刚刚开始,遇到困难是正常的。再乐观的人,也不会认为短短一个星期内,就能够击败俄军。 Compared with the previous war, the present situation good is too many. At that time, a war eruption Russian force pressed general army to hit, finally was overturned by them. 和上一次战争相比,现在的情况已经好了太多。当时,战争一爆发俄军压着普军打,最后还是被他们翻了盘。 „ Since did not fear that do not find the excuse. Sets one's mind at ease, finding the way to rip open the defense line of enemy. “既然不怕,那就不要找借口。沉下心来,想办法撕开敌人的防线。 The enemies deployed the large army in the Brest area, that finds the way to circle. The armies cannot pass, isn't the small stock army good? 敌人在布列斯特地区部署了重兵,那就想办法绕过去。大军过不去,小股部队还不行么？ Also can arrange the person to blast the river course in Dnieper River again badly, so long as the strategic goal were achieved, no matter I you use any means. ” 再不济也可以安排人炸掉第聂伯河的河道,只要战略目的实现了,我不管你们用任何办法。” In order to win war, Moltke is reckless. Do not look at the relaxedness that he said that if really the small stock army island of resistance is thorough, that basically has not to return. 为了赢得战争,毛奇已经不顾一切了。别看他说的轻松,真要是小股部队孤军深入,那基本上是有去无回。 Hohenlohe Ingelfingen: „ Marshal, the enemy deployed the large army in the Brest area, is not suitable to take the breach, best trades a direction. 霍恩洛厄・英格尔芬根:“元帅阁下,敌人在布列斯特地区部署了重兵,不适合作为突破口,最好是换个方向。 Different from the previous war, this Russia person made the preparation, in a short time the Russian force will not lack the commodity. 不同于上一次战争,这次俄国人做了充分准备,短时间内俄军不会缺物资。 Even if severed the Dnieper River, they can still conduct the transportation through the railroad in sun Crain area, only if we can occupy the entire Ukraine. 即便是切断了第聂伯河,他们也可以通过东乌克兰地区的铁路进行运输,除非我们能够占领整个乌克兰。 Strategically, this unusual weak. The Ukrainian area is not the Russia core, even if lost here, the Russia person will not surrender. 从战略上来说,这非常的鸡肋。乌克兰地区不是俄国的核心,就算是丢了这里,俄国人也不会投降。 They have secured the understanding of Northern European federation, besides the Austria advantage, the Russia person can also obtain the commodity from the Northern European federation. 他们已经取得了北欧联邦的谅解,除了奥地利之外,俄国人还可以从北欧联邦获得物资。 Before the Tsar government squanders in the pocket the last gold coin, we very difficult to burn out them on the commodity. 在沙皇政府花光兜里最后一枚金币前,我们很难在物资上把他们拖垮。 To beat Russian Empire, must occupy Moscow and St. Petersburg. Compared with these two strategic points, other places should be only auxiliary. ” 想要击垮俄罗斯帝国,必须要占领莫斯科和圣彼得堡。和这两个战略要地相比,其他的地方都应该只是辅助。” Moltke pounds on the table: „Your proposition, I will give careful consideration. Now what need is the performance order, clear general!” 毛奇一拍桌子:“你的提议,我会慎重考虑的。现在需要的是执行命令,明白么将军！” It is not this proposition is not good, is not Moltke cannot accommodate the different opinions. The fact is just the opposite, without preparing the preparation of dozen of Moscow, in the previous war the Berlin government will not persist in wanting Smolensk. 不是这个提议不好,也不是毛奇容不得不同意见。事实恰恰相反,如果没有准备打莫斯科的准备,上一次战争中柏林政府也不会坚持要斯摩棱斯克。 Attacks the strategic point in Moscow, grasped in the hand, did Moltke possibly neglect? 进攻莫斯科的战略要地,都握在了手中,毛奇怎么可能忽略呢？ The issue is the Russia person also looked, the war just broke out, the Russia person assembled besieged Smolensk with large army. 问题是俄国人也看出来了,战争刚刚爆发,俄国人就调集了重兵围攻斯摩棱斯克。 Under this background, Moltke naturally cannot choose and Russia person spells hardly, had the Brest offensive and defensive operations. 这种背景下,毛奇自然不会选择和俄国人硬拼,才有了布列斯特攻防战。 As for Smolensk, was used to consume the military of enemy to be good. The Berlin government had established the perfect fortification in the area, happen to attracts the Russian force firepower. 至于斯摩棱斯克,用来消耗敌人的兵力好了。柏林政府已经在当地建立了完善的防御工事,正好吸引俄军火力。 ...... …… After the conference ended, Moltke left behind Hohenlohe Ingelfingen to discuss in private. 会议结束后,毛奇留下了霍恩洛厄・英格尔芬根密议。 „Marshal, why didn't say in the conference?” “元帅,为什么不在会议上说呢？” Moltke: „ Right, is such that you think. Naturally, I did not mean the person who attended the conference has the issue, the Russia person did not have the ability buy high-level military officer. 毛奇:“没错,就是你想的那样。当然,我不是说参加会议的人有问题,俄国人还没有能力收买高层军官。 The following person said that does not permit, the spies who recently these years we caught are many, many do not know that gave the enemy news divulging. At this critical moment, we are discrete. ” 下面的人就说不准了,最近这些年我们抓到的间谍都不少,很多人自己都不知道就把消息泄露给了敌人。在这种关键时刻,我们必须要谨慎。” Hohenlohe Ingelfingen looking pensive, catching the spy is not always a harmonious matter, although the Berlin government has not done to implicate, many military officers were involved. 霍恩洛厄・英格尔芬根若有所思,抓间谍从来都不是一件和谐的事,柏林政府虽然没有搞株连,还是有不少军官被牵扯了进去。 The places of some people have the dispute, the military is not the monolithic bloc, because of relations of power struggle, so long as were involved, whether or is not innocent, finally can only the dingy retirement. 有人的地方就有纷争,军方也不是铁板一块,因为权力斗争的关系,只要被牵扯了进去,不管是不是无辜,最后都只能灰溜溜的退役。 „Good, I do not oppose this combat plan in principle. The Soviet Southwestern Front will attract the attention of enemy as far as possible, but breaks through from the Warren area, I am some worries.” “好吧,原则上我不反对这份作战计划。西南方面军会尽可能的吸引敌人的注意力,但从沃伦地区突破,我还是有些担心。” To capture Kiev, not, only then goes downstream a road along the Dnieper River, from Warren area even push, was is only not directly convenient in the past. 想要夺取基辅,不只有沿第聂伯河顺流而下一条路,直接从沃伦地区平推过去也可以,只是没有那么方便。 Moltke shows a faint smile: „ Worry was right, you think, the enemy was more difficult to think. 毛奇微微一笑:“担心就对了,你都觉得不行,敌人就更难想到了。 Also no one stipulated, we must project on Kiev directly. 况且,又没人规定,我们一定要直接打到基辅去。 Makes after the breakthrough in the Warren area, we can definitely transfer the muzzle, conducts to the Russian force of Brest outflanks circuitously. 在沃伦地区取得突破过后,我们完全可以调转枪口,对布列斯特的俄军进行迂回包抄。 The war had started, strategic planning that beforehand makes, can only be the plan. Must implement, how should implement, must conduct according to the actual situation. 战争已经开始了,事先制定的战略计划,就只能是计划。要不要实施,该怎么实施,都要根据实际情况进行。 No matter how hits, so long as won this war on the line. Now we must do annihilating Russian force principal force as far as possible, so long as beat this batch of armies, the following weaponry was easy to hit. ” 不管怎么打,只要赢得这场战争就行了。现在我们要做的就是尽可能的歼灭俄军主力部队,只要把这批军队干掉了,后面的仗就好打了。” One is by the tens of thousands dry the merit bone, everyone cared that the victory of war, no one pays attention to back payout. The unknown hero is greatest, is most solemn most and stirring. 一将功成万骨枯,大家都只是关心战争的胜利,根本就没人注意背后的付出。无名英雄是最伟大的,也是最悲壮的。 Moltke rather gives the military officers to bring the pressure, forcing everyone to launch the attack, did not say the deceptive attack truth to everyone, there is a consideration in this aspect. 毛奇宁愿给军官们施加压力,逼迫大家发起进攻,也不对大家说出佯攻的真相,也有这方面的考虑。 If everyone knows the truth, will also go all out? If insufficiently goes all out, how can also make the sufficient pressure on the enemy, forces the peripheral Russian force reinforcement? 要是大家知道真相,还会那么拼命么？如果不够拼命,又怎么能够给敌人制造足够的压力,逼迫周边的俄军增援呢？ Even due to political considerations, this deceptive attack will also be cancelled artificially. If in the battlefield has not made the breakthrough, the army that is responsible for the deceptive attack not only cannot fish the meritorious military service, will also bear the punishment. 甚至出于政治上的考虑,这次佯攻还会被人为抹去。如果战场上没有取得突破,负责佯攻的部队不但捞不到战功,还会背上处分。 An outstanding commander, not only need consider the military and politics, but must consider the human nature. 一名优秀的指挥官,不光要考虑军事和政治,还要考虑人性。
