Chapter 18: The Best Play of the Ox

"Hahaha..." He Ruxiaov was stunned at first after hearing Chu Sinan's words, and then he said to Chu Sinan, "Comrade Chu Sinan, I didn't expect you to be so concerned about the overall strategic situation. Thank you for your reminder. However, the Supreme Command has learned about this, so we built a solid defense on the line of the West Vinna River and the Dnieper River to resist the German attempt to attack Moscow. Now you see that we, those of us, were all selected from the armies currently building the defense line. Just on the front of Smolensk, we deployed a total of three armies, and here we have twenty-two and twenty-seven two armies. As for the left side, there is a defensive zone for the entire central front. Can such a strong deployment of troops still stop the pace of the German army?"

"Comrade Horuschev, there is indeed no problem with Smolensk's left wing, because it is not the main attack direction of the German army. Their main attack direction is Smolensk's center and right wing." Chu Sinan pressed the anger in his stomach due to being sarcastic and explained patiently, "Although the defense power of these five more armies stationed in these two places is not weak, what we have to face is the two tank clusters of the German "central" plus two reorganized armies, which does not include their large air force. In this way, we are far from it in terms of military strength and tank equipment. And there is another big weakness in our defense, that is, the defense power of the right wing is too weak. Once it is broken through by the German army, it is very easy to put the army in the central defense zone into a siege..."

"Comrade Chu Sinan," this time Heruschev laughed even more happily, "Are you kidding? The German central cluster should be entangled in the area near Minsk. Even if they have plans to march into the West Devine River and the Dnieper River, they may need to prepare for a few days."

"He Ruxiaofu and..." Chu Sinan was anxious to explain how fast the German army was advancing, which should have been revealed some time ago, but the rascal comrade in front of him was still saying what it would take several days. However, before he could say it, he was interrupted by the rascal comrade.

"Comrade Chu Sinan, I know what you want to say. Do you want to say that the German army used the lightning tactics that take speed as the advantage? Hoho, indeed, I must admit that their troops can reach our defense line in a short time with the mechanized cooperation, but don't forget that war requires not only speed and firepower, but also sufficient supplies. The German army's attack in the early stage was very smooth, and the front line advanced hundreds of kilometers. Although this can show their strong combat power, it undoubtedly created for them.

Disadvantages. Large-scale mechanized corps will inevitably require sufficient logistics supplies. Without food and medicine soldiers cannot survive, without enough fuel, and mechanical corps cannot fight. However, the long front line of the German army and the wide propulsion area have made their logistics transportation difficult. It is already summer and autumn and winter are coming. If this problem cannot be solved, Hitler may not rashly order his troops to continue to advance towards Moscow without the ability to guarantee logistics, right?"

"And!" He Ruxiaov said those words, without waiting for Chu Sinan to interrupt, and then continued, "Even if Hitler went crazy this time, he wanted his troops to run to Moscow on hungry. Then let me ask you, how do you know that he will use our right wing as the main attack direction? Is it just like the legend outside that Comrade Chu Sinan, are you also a stargazer that Hitler trusts? Can you know the enemy's thoughts or combat deployment by looking at the stars?"

"Hahahaha..." He Ruxiaov's words caused laughter from the people around him. While Chu Sinan felt humiliated, he was also angry. If the guy in front of him hadn't been there, he would have rushed up and pinched him to death.

"Comrade Heruxiaof, since you think so, I have nothing to say." Chu Sinan shrugged and said to the people around him very casually, "But I sincerely hope that we can repel the German attack with the least cost and the shortest time. After this separation, I don't know when I will meet you again. Oh, I really hope there is still a chance to meet again. Take care of you."

After Chu Sinan finished speaking, he ignored He Luxiaofu's expression and slammed the door and left.

After leaving the venue, Chu Sinan walked back to the barracks alone, feeling full of depression. He felt that he was the best person in the world to play the piano for cows in history. He should have known that anything he said was useless, but he still said so much, but the reward he received was ridiculed by others. This is really outrageous.

Thinking of that, Chu Sinan was walking faster and faster. In just a while, he could see the barracks he temporarily lived in from a distance. He just wanted to go back quickly, then have a good sleep, waiting for someone to inform him to get on the plane and move...

"Comrade Chu Sinan, Comrade Chu Sinan... Don't go so fast, you can't catch up with you." A familiar voice came from behind, Akhromeyev, and Chu Sinan could hear it without looking back.

"Oh, Comrade Akhromeev, is there anything wrong?" Chu Sinan turned around and said to him. When Chu Sinan turned around, he realized that Akhromeev did not come alone. There were two young soldiers around him. Judging from the military rank, they were all majors.

"Oh, something is wrong," Akhromeev pointed to the two people around him and said, "We are all very interested in what you said just now, and we also think it is very likely, so now I want to have a deeper discussion with you... Oh, by the way, I will introduce these two colonels to you first."

Akhromeev first pointed to the handsome young man on the left who always smiled and looked handsome, saying, "This is Colonel Sergei Leonidevich, now the chief of staff of the 327th Tank Regiment of the First Mechanized Army."

Pointing at the short and strong young man on the right, he continued: "This is Colonel Nikola Vasilyevich Ogarkov, now the director of the Engineering Corps of the 17th Division."

Wow!

Chu Sinan almost exclaimed, and he was two future marshal-level figures. In this war-torn Soviet Union was really hidden. In this Western Front Army, there were at least three future marshals. People said that the times create heroes, but it seems that this is true.
