For Bu Russia, the war broke out so suddenly that they were not prepared at all, and were caught off guard by the Germans. Although they sent all their elite troops to the front line, they still couldn't resist the well-prepared German army, resulting in heavy losses.

Now, the mobilization of Russia is being completed step by step, and a large number of troops are being transferred from all over the country to the western front. This allowed them to have enough troops to resist the German attack.

The coming winter is even more crucial for Buer. They can use these months to take a good rest and rearrange their troops. The leaders of Bu Russia believe that after careful preparation, their army will not be as vulnerable as it is now.

The panic in Joseph's heart disappeared by this time.

"Gentlemen, the Germans are now on the offensive. However, this does not mean that we have to be on the defensive all the time. We can also launch attacks from other places, so that the Germans are in a hurry and contain their strength!" Joseph said.

"Comrade Joseph, do you mean that we attack the Germans from other directions?" Both Voroshilov and Shaposhnikov frowned.

Now, the Russian army is exhausted under the fierce German attack, and they don't have many troops to attack.

"Yes, I think we can send part of the army to attack the vital points of the Germans! If we can succeed, this will open up the situation for us. It is also of great benefit to the frontal battlefield!" Joseph said.

"Comrade Joseph, if this is the case, I think it is feasible. However, I don't know where you want to attack?" General Shaposhnikov asked.

"Here!" Joseph pointed to the map.

Voroshilov and Shaposhnikov immediately understood what Joseph meant.

The place where Joseph asked them to attack was the Persian Gulf region in the Middle East. Here, it has become the most important oil producing area in Germany. Almost all the oil consumed by Germany and the whole of Europe is produced here. It can be said that if Bu Russia can really send troops to capture here, it will be a heavy blow to Germany.

Europe is generally short of oil. Except for Romania, which has an oil field with a small output, the oil of the rest of the countries is obtained from abroad as soon as possible. Bu Russia's oil mainly comes from the Baku oil field.

"The strength of the Germans is based on their advanced weapons and equipment. If we can send troops to occupy the Persian Gulf, we will be able to cut off the Germans' access to oil. Without oil, the German planes will not be able to fly into the sky , the tanks will not be able to start. At that time, their combat effectiveness will be greatly affected. And we will be able to turn defeat into victory." Joseph looked forward to it.

Voroshilov and Shaposhnikov looked at each other, and they both saw a trace of helplessness in each other's eyes. Both of them thought that Joseph had imagined everything too simply.

"Comrade Joseph, the Germans should have been prepared for a long time. In Germany, they have established a combat-ready system and stored a large amount of oil. In addition, the Germans can also obtain oil from Romania and Libya. Even if they lose the oil in the Persian Gulf , It will not have a fatal impact on them." Marshal Voroshilov said.

"Even so, as long as the Germans can be affected, that's enough, at least it's much better than our blind passive beating now?" Joseph made another stubborn mistake.

"In addition, we have occupied the Persian Gulf, which can also pose a threat to North Africa or India. Especially India, which is the most important colony of the Germans. If we send troops to attack India, the Germans will definitely panic. At that time , they have to transfer troops to India, and our pressure will be much less." Joseph said excitedly, as if he had found a good way to deal with Germany.

"Comrade Joseph, according to the information we have received, the Turks are sending troops to the east. Their purpose is probably to prevent us from attacking the Persian Gulf." Shaposhnikov reminded.

Hearing the news, Joseph couldn't help frowning, but he didn't pay attention to this. However, it was hard for him to come up with such a method, and it would undoubtedly be impossible for him to give up.

"Damn the Turks, they are all gone, and they still want to fight us?" Joseph gritted his teeth and said.

Indeed, the current Turkey is no longer the Ottoman Turkish Empire that beat the **** out of Europe, it is just a small country that has fallen. In the face of the powerful Bu Russia, it is undoubtedly much weaker. Buo could kill them at any time if he wanted to. But now, Bu Russia's strength has been restrained by the Germans, which makes them somewhat powerless towards Turkey.

"Even if Turkey wants to intervene, it can't change the situation of the battle. Our army is much stronger than theirs. I believe that our army can easily defeat them. As long as we defeat the Turks, we can easily occupy Persia It's over," Joseph said.

Voroshilov and Shaposhnikov knew that Joseph had made up his mind.

"Comrade Joseph, even if we can defeat the Turks and occupy the Persian Gulf, the Germans will definitely not ignore them. They will definitely send a large army to land in the Persian Gulf. At that time, I am afraid it will be difficult for us to defeat them." Shaposh Nikoff reminded.

"Even if we can't defeat the Germans, we have to destroy the oil wells there, so that the Germans can't get a drop of oil from the Persian Gulf!" Joseph gritted his teeth and said.

"Okay, Comrade Joseph!" Shaposhnikov had no choice but to say no more.

"Form the Caucasus Front Army as soon as possible, and then march to the Persian Gulf! This time, we will take the initiative to launch an offensive and let the Germans pay for their actions that provoked the war!" Joseph said.

"Yes, Comrade Joseph." Both Voroshilov and Shaposhnikov replied loudly.

If the Russian army can really start from the Caucasus, capture the Persian Gulf, or destroy Germany's oil wells there, it will still be able to play a certain role in promoting Bu Russia to win the war. It's just that Bu'er's military strength is already extremely limited. No one can tell whether it is a good thing or not for Bu'er to divide the troops again.
