Just when Schliefenzhi was satisfied, a disharmonious voice suddenly came from beside him. He turned his head and saw Qingying step forward and spoke in a slightly puzzled tone: "Mr. Earl, I have a small question. If we gather such a strong military force on the right wing, what method should we use to ensure their marching speed and logistics support?"

"According to this plan, the right-wing cluster needs to sweep Belgium and the heart of France in just five weeks; especially to take the first army at the northernmost end, as they are going westward along the edge of the English Channel, the journey they need to go every day will be farther. And I doubt whether the German logistics guarantee system can provide enough supplies to such a large army to meet the normal consumption they need to carry out rapid advances in France. In 1870, we only used 250,000 troops, and this time, the troops that were only flanked by the flank encirclement were only allowed to be carried out.

There were 1.1 million people, but today's logistics system did not change as before! If the French and Biblical armies were retreating and also destroyed the bridges and roads along the way, then I really couldn't imagine the supply situation of this right-wing army after they entered France." Qingying carefully said and finally said the words buried in his heart. At this moment, Qingying had some long-lost expectations and impulses in his heart: if he could persuade Schlieffen directly and make him doubt his plan, then the west defense and east offensive strategy that would make sure to make a profit would be proposed naturally!

"In addition, our propulsion speed is difficult to guarantee. This is not only because the deeper we enter the French territory, the more difficult our army's materials will reach the front line, but also the resistance the French have to carry out. If the French and Belgian troops guard the fortresses, rivers and cities along the way, it will cause considerable obstacles and troubles to our advance. After all, heavy cannons used for attacks are difficult to maneuver quickly. It is absolutely necessary to conquer the fortresses with strong defenses.

These big guys! This year's siege of the Russian Dalini Fortress is the most direct example. Once we cannot quickly resolve France within 40 days, then the mobilized Russia will extend their brutal claws to the sacred East Prussia, and the British Expeditionary Force will continue to land in the rear ports of France; Germany will be attacked on three sides, which is undoubtedly a catastrophic situation for us." Qingying added.

To Qingying's surprise, Schliffen was surprisingly calm after hearing this, without showing any shock or solemn expression. He was silent for a while, and then slowly spoke to Qingying: "I originally thought that Your Highness did not have any deep understanding of the army strategy. However, your words just now undoubtedly hit the most deadly core of my plan. The rapid advancement of 1.1 million people and 250,000 people is indeed two completely different situations, but it is not impossible to deal with it."

"What's the solution?" Qingying and William blurted out at the same time.

A fierce look suddenly appeared in Schliffen's eyes, saying, "Fight to fight! As long as our army set foot on the territory of Belgium, the Netherlands and France, we will immediately plunder all the materials that can be used for military supplies, and there will be no grass left wherever the army passes. If Belgium can surrender without fighting, we will not only obtain their complete transportation hub in China, but also collect all their national defense inventory; in this way, the personnel responsible for logistics will only use artillery, guns and ammunition to transport supply pressure, and the entire army's roundabout strategy will become feasible."

Schlieffen shook his head and whispered: "Through this Russo-Japanese War, I naturally saw the weak status of the Russian army, and I also understood that the threat these guys posed to us is far less than before. Because of this, I dared to leave only 9 divisions of defense in East Prussia and concentrate all the main forces to attack France. Your Highness, if we choose to attack Russia, we can certainly guarantee victory on the battlefield on the Eastern Front, but how can we ensure the victory of the entire war? As I said before, France can complete the war mobilization in 15 days and launch a large-scale attack on us. Russia has an endless vast space and several times the number of troops that are several times the German army. I don't know how many years it will take to make them to the sum. At that time, we will be in a difficult situation where the Russians are consumed on the Eastern Front and the Russians, and the Western Front is facing a difficult situation where the French army will always break through the defense."

"What if our offense on the Eastern Front can force Russia to withdraw from the war within two years, and France will find it difficult to make progress on the Western Front?" Qingying threw this situation to Schliffen, which was almost inevitable.

"If both goals can be achieved, then it is not impossible to attack Russia. When the Western Front is as solid as a rock and the Eastern Front wins continuously, the imperial war machines can last for two years. However, the problem is that we cannot guarantee that these two goals can be achieved at the same time, and even if only one of them is achieved, it is powerless." Schliffen replied patiently. In his opinion, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a slag who knows nothing about the army: if you want to resist millions of French troops, you must also be able to defeat and mobilize 6 million troops.

Russia, this idea was simply terrible. The Seven Years War made Frederick the Great famous, but it also brought the entire Prussia to the brink of the abyss of destruction. After 20 years of peace construction, the country did not restore the country to pre-war. Germany's national strength did not allow this strategy of fighting a war of attrition with France and Russia. The long-term war would make the entire empire unsustainable, so it must be decided at the beginning of the war. What to fight for two years? The war lasted for more than two months, which was a great crime against the country and nation!

Qingying's lips curled up a little, and she smiled and said, "The issue of Russia's withdrawal from the war within two years is put aside for the time being. Mr. Earl, let us confirm through battles that are harder than steel."
