It is no secret that the German army used the offensive against Moscow and Josephgrad to consume the vital strength of the Russian army. The Russian high-level is also very clear about this. If, at the beginning, they still thought about using up the city defense operations to consume the strength of the German army and defeat the German army's offensive plan, then now, they no longer have such an idea. Because the Russian army is very clear that even in urban street battles, they are definitely not the opponents of the German army.
It stands to reason that in street fighting, the defensive side will undoubtedly have a great advantage. However, as the elite troops of the Russian army lost almost on the front line. This made the defensive troops of Moscow and Josephgrad mostly recruits. And they are still recruits who have not received formal military training. Naturally, one can imagine what the result will be when these recruits are sent to the battlefield.
Even the German troops attacking Moscow have been reduced to 13 infantry divisions. The rest of the troops are all in charge of the servant army. However, the Russian army was still defeated steadily and suffered heavy losses. Although, in order to stabilize the front, the Russian army continued to deploy troops from all over the country to reinforce Moscow and Josephgrad. But the battle between these two cities, like two wounds, is causing Russia to bleed continuously. Once all the blood is shed, Russia may only have to fall down.
Joseph also knew this, but he had no other choice but to bite the bullet. Originally, I thought that after the United States entered the war, it would be able to share part of the power for Russia. As a result, I did not expect that the US military would lose so quickly. Even if the U.S. military wants to make a comeback, Russia will not be able to support that time. This is a tragedy for Russia.
"Damn, what should we do now? When we started war against the Germans, it was the Americans who deceived us. They claimed that they would provide us with all kinds of support, and even personally participate in the war to help us defeat the Germans. But now , they are so useless!" Joseph began to complain endlessly like a bitter woman.
It's just that no matter how much you say now, it's useless at all. Now that the war has begun, there is no regret taking the medicine. Even if Russia wants to stop, it is impossible. Germany, which has the absolute upper hand, will never let Russia go easily.
Marshal Shaposhnikov and Marshal Voroshilov bowed their heads without saying a word, allowing Joseph to vent his anger. They knew that Joseph was in a fit of anger now, and if they didn't let him vent his anger, then there would be big trouble.
"Report, Comrade Zhukov, please see me." The secretary said loudly outside the office door.
Joseph stopped talking.
"Let Comrade Zhukov come in!" Joseph said.
"Yes, Comrade Joseph."
Soon, Zhukov in military uniform walked into this underground office.
"Comrade Joseph." General Zhukov saluted Joseph.
"Comrade Zhukov, how is the situation on the front line?" Joseph asked.
"Comrade Joseph, the German offensive is still very fierce, and our defense pressure is very high. In order to resist the German offensive as much as possible and regain the lost positions, we even had to invest a large number of reserves. Now, the casualties of the troops It is very large. The troops that entered Moscow could not even catch up with the troops that were wiped out by the German army." General Zhukov said.
Joseph's face suddenly turned black, as if it was the bottom of a pot. From General Zhukov's report, he could know how critical the situation was. There is no doubt that with the increasing losses, it has become more and more difficult for the Russian army to persist in Moscow and Josephgrad.
"Comrade Joseph, now the Germans have slowed down their offensive in order to allow us to invest more troops in Moscow and Josefgrad. At the same time, Moscow and Josefgrad have not yet been completely surrounded. However, we cannot expect the Germans to continue If it goes on like this. If they are determined to capture Moscow and Josephgrad, they will definitely form an encirclement of these two cities. In that case, we may not be able to last much longer." General Zhukov continued.
"Comrade Zhukov, do you have any suggestions?" Joseph asked.
Zhukov made so many preparations, he knew that Zhukov must have something to say.
"Comrade Joseph, we can't keep letting the Germans lead us by the nose, and we can no longer follow their strategic intentions. I suggest that we stop sending reinforcements to Moscow and Josephgrad. In the current situation, even if we send More reinforcements will come to Moscow and Josephgrad, but they will be wiped out by the Germans. Instead of this, it is better to use the precious troops on other battlefields. Only in this way can we persist in the war with the Germans Longer," Zhukov said.
"However, if we stop reinforcing Moscow and Josephgrad, how long can we last here? I am afraid that these two cities will fall soon." Marshal Shaposhnikov said.
"Even if we invest more troops in Moscow and Josephgrad, we cannot avoid the fall of these two cities. Therefore, I think there is no need to waste our strength in vain." General Zhukov continued.
Joseph frowned, as if he was considering General Zhukov's suggestion.
"Comrade Joseph, I solemnly ask you to leave Moscow and go to other places to continue leading and directing our fight against the Germans. As long as you are there, even if Moscow and Josephgrad fall, we can still fight against the Germans tenaciously. It is a good opportunity for you to leave Moscow before the German encirclement is formed. If the Germans begin to encircle Moscow, you will not be able to leave." General Zhukov looked solemn.
Joseph looked at Zhukov with burning eyes.
General Zhukov faced it calmly.
After a while, Joseph nodded: "Comrade Zhukov, thank you for your suggestion. However, I will think about it carefully."
Joseph did not want to leave Moscow, where he was the supreme leader of Russia. But if you leave Moscow, how many people are willing to obey his orders?
You know, in the previous big purge, he killed a lot of people. I don't know how many people wanted his life. Once he leaves Moscow, it will undoubtedly give those people a chance. Especially now that the war is not going well, I am afraid that more people will have other thoughts.
