Tsarist Empire: Please call me His Majesty the Tsar chapter 442

The Germanic Empire Army began to frantically assemble on the western front, and this time, the Germanic Empire was completely desperate.

They amassed more than a large number of troops, and planned to commit nearly two million troops to Verdun and the surrounding battlefields alone. If you add to the rest of the Western Front the forces of the Sunbreakers and the Gauls, the number of troops invested would be more than three million, or even close to four million. For the German Imperial Army, it was definitely a battle of all its might.

The Germanic Empire Army’s large-scale mobilization of troops naturally could not hide from the sun and the Gauls.

The Imperial Expeditionary Force and the Gallic Army also began to mobilize troops. Of course, the sun never sets and the Gauls are actually very depressed about why the Germans really made them the main target of attack, not the Russians. Could it be that you really think they should be better bullied?

Sir Douglas Haig, commander of the Imperial Expeditionary Force that never sets, met with General Robert Nivel, commander-in-chief of the Gallic State.

“Sir, according to the information we have so far, the number of troops mobilized by the Germans this time is very large. It is certain that they will launch an offensive of unprecedented scale on the Western Front. If we can’t withstand the Germanic attack this time, the consequences will be very serious. General Robert Nivel had a serious expression.

In this war, the Gallic kingdom was directly facing the attack of the Germans.

With most of the Kingdom of Biliz already falling, the northern part of Gaul has become the main battlefield. And here, it happens to be the most industrially developed area of Gaul. It’s just that during the war, this area was destroyed.

Fortunately, the Gallic state can buy weapons and equipment and war materiel from other countries. Moreover, local agriculture is also very developed. This left Gaul not much affected.

If it had been for other countries, I am afraid that it would have been impossible to hold on.

But even so, the Gallic state paid a lot of losses in this war. If this time it could not withstand the attack of the Germans, then a large part of Gaul might have fallen. At the same time, it will be a great blow to the people of the entire Gallic state. Everyone’s morale will also be greatly affected.

Sir Douglas Haig nodded, he had just succeeded Sir French as commander of the expeditionary force.

Sir French’s performance made the top brass of the Imperial Army very dissatisfied. Therefore, he has been transferred back to the homeland and served as the commander of the native troops. The Imperial Expeditionary Force is led by Sir Douglas Haig.

“The Germans are really menacing this time. It seems that the Germans suffered heavy losses on the Eastern Front last year. That’s why they put the direction of the main attack on the western front. This is clearly afraid of the Russians. The Germans were planning to defeat us first, and then move on to the Russians. If the Russians were able to attack on the Eastern Front when the Germans attacked us, it might have cost the Germans a lot. If you don’t get it right, it will also hit the Germans hard~. Sir Douglas Haig said.

Admiral Robert Nivel shook his head: “This can’t be. The relationship between us and the Russians is already very bad. Because of the problems of the Kingdom of Romenia and the Ottoman Empire, it almost tore his face. In addition, the ambitions of the Russians are also very large. They wish we were weakened by the Germans. Therefore, they are probably very happy to see us and the Germans fighting hard, and they will not want to help us at all. ”

Although, both the Sun Never Set and the Gauls knew that if the main members of the Entente could unite and unite to launch an attack on the Germanic Empire. Probably, the Germanic people would not have posed such a threat to them at all.

But unfortunately, because of the different interests and demands. In addition, there are many contradictions in themselves. So much so that they simply can’t really unite. And the Germans saw exactly this. That’s why they went all out to attack on the Western Front.

“In any case, since the Germans have made us the main direction of attack, we can’t change that. Therefore, we can only do our best to resist the attack of the Germans. Otherwise, we’re done!” said Robelniville.

Sir Douglas Haig nodded.

If they lose on the Western Front, the Imperial Expeditionary Force can still retreat to the mainland, relying on the straits and the powerful Royal Navy to ensure the security of the homeland. However, the Gauls are really finished.

And once the Gauls are finished, the sun does not set and there is no chance to defeat the Germans again. The army was originally the short board of the empire that never sets. Although the Royal Navy is very strong, it can’t drive the battleships of the Royal Navy ashore, right?

Now the sun does not set and the Gauls have no choice, and they must resist the fierce attack of the Germans.

On February 21, 1816, the Germanic Imperial Army launched an offensive on the Western Front. The main direction of the attack was Verdun, located in the salient part of the defensive line.

The force responsible for launching the attack was the 5th Army personally led by Crown Prince William. Originally, this army group had only 17 infantry divisions. However, after expansion, the entire army group now had fifty divisions and millions of men.

Other forces attacked the area around Verdun to contain the Imperial Expeditionary Force and the Gallic Army and prevent them from reinforcing Verdun.

The 3rd Army of the Gallic Army, responsible for the defense of the Verdun region, was commanded by General El. Originally, this army group consisted of only 11 divisions. However, in the event of a large-scale attack by the Germans, the Gauls could only continue to increase their troops here. In the end, the Gallic Army had assembled as many as 69 divisions in this area, accounting for two-thirds of all the Gallic Army forces on the Western Front.

“‘Boom! Boom! Boom!

The Germanic Imperial Army gathered a large number of artillery pieces and opened heavy fire on the positions of the Gallic Army.

Because throughout the battlefield on the Western Front, trenches were everywhere. If you want to move forward, you have to pay a great price. Using artillery to destroy enemy defenses became the best way.

After two days of fire preparation, a large number of German Imperial Army troops attacked the Gaul army lines.

A brutal bloody battle broke out here.

It is also because in this battle, both sides paid huge losses. Therefore, it is also known as the Verdun meat grinder.
