Chapter 62 Happy Hitler
The two armies plus some scattered troops were the Soviet Union's reaction to China's capture of Novosibirsk. The European side also immediately learned the news, and the Germans immediately started to celebrate. For the Germans, this was just the first army to support China, and there would be more in the future. As long as this continues, the day for them to win will come soon. At this time, Hitler was not worried about whether China would cross Ekaterin Arbor. You should know that according to the original treaty, the Chinese could only fight Ekaterin Arbor at most and could not continue to move towards Europe. Now Hitler has long forgotten this matter. As long as China can attract the attention of the Soviet Union, what would happen if it was China that divided the Soviet Union equally with China?
You should know that at the current speed of war, if China did not participate in the war, it is very likely that Germany would not be able to hold on. Although Germany can still maintain the balance of all fronts, military observers have long seen that Germany has insufficient potential. With the support of the United States, the Soviet Union is developing rapidly, both the military industry and the number of soldiers, especially the Soviet Union's military industry is a new level every year, and the passing rate of weapons and equipment they produce now is already very high. If it is at this development speed, in the next ten months, the Soviet Union's military industry is likely to surpass Germany, and its quality can be closer to Germany. At that time, the Germans who lack guns and cannons will find it difficult to defend against the Soviet attack. At that time, the Soviet Union will drive Germany out of its territory in its entirety and even attack Germany.
Many countries in this world are afraid that war will take place on their own land. For example, Britain, Japan and Germany. Countries like them are relatively advanced countries in the world and their military power is also very strong. However, they all have one common disadvantage, that is, they do not have strategic depth, the entire country is too small, and an enemy charge may even run through their entire country. Germany is a little better, at least it belongs to a continental country, and the domestic army is relatively developed, and Britain and Japan are the worst. They belong to island countries, especially Japan, where the entire country is narrow and long.
What Hitler feared most was that the war burned to Germany. Although Germany now occupied most of Europe's territory, most of Germany's industrial production was still concentrated in its own land. If the land was invaded by the enemy, then Germany's productivity would seriously decline. You should know that Germany's industrial areas were also very concentrated. If a bomb was thrown down, it might leave thousands of people on the front line without weapons and ammunition. This is a very big disaster for the whole of Germany. It was different from the Soviets. The Germans bombed in Britain for so long, and British soldiers also had weapons and ammunition in their hands because they had foreign aid and Americans. Although many people also said, aren't you Germans still having trade relations with the Chinese? But the trade relations and allies are completely different.
Allied relations must be supported under any circumstances. This is because the treaty signed by both sides and the two sides have common interests. If both sides want to break the contract, they must first see if they can persist after the breach. Just like Britain and the United States, no matter how much Americans expand their troops on a large scale, they must still send weapons and ammunition to the British on time, because they need the British to help them on the front line to help them with the losses of weapons and ammunition, which can be compensated by production, but the losses of personnel are very serious. The United States is not afraid of losing money, and the people are most afraid of losing.
But the Chinese are completely different. The Chinese and Germans signed trade contracts. When the Chinese expand on a large scale, it is very likely that the Chinese will interrupt the supply of arms to the Germans. Because we are also fighting, we are fighting everywhere, and we need a lot of arms. If we continue to trade with the Germans at this time, it is very likely that the Chinese are not enough, and there is another most important aspect, that is, the Germans are out of money now. Until the war, the Germans have plundered the land in Europe several times. The money in their hands is decreasing sharply. If there is not enough money, don’t expect to get Chinese weapons and ammunition.
So when the news of the Soviet Union dispatching troops to the Far East reached Berlin, Hitler was so happy that he finally saw a glimmer of hope that he would not have to fight alone. Although Germany had a large number of servants in Europe at this time, what are the uses of these small countries? These small countries were not successful enough and had more than enough failures, and they could only take on some transportation tasks on the battlefield. If it was a real battlefield, it would be worse than the troubles they brought to them. The Italian army could be said to have brought endless troubles to Germany during the entire World War II. If Germany did not have Italy, it might have failed later, and it might have been rewritten in the entire World War II.
Originally, Germany planned to end the war against the Soviet Union before the winter came, but because of the Italian army's participation in the war, the Italian army suffered a crushing defeat in the southern part of the Soviet Union. At this time, Hitler had to order the Central Army to go south to help these Italian troops stabilize the situation. This delayed a lot of time, so the battle did not end before the winter came, which put Germany in the quagmire of winter. The Soviet Union's winter can be said to be very cold, which made most German soldiers suffer. If it ended before the winter, it would probably be the Soviets who were unlucky at that time.
However, some people say that the Soviet Union was protected by God. When Napoleon led a large number of troops to attack Tsarist Russia, heavy snow fell from the sky, which made Napoleon's 500,000 troops unable to find clothes to keep warm. Now it is similar to that time. The German army also encountered cold weather when they were directly in Moscow. However, this statement was untenable in this era, and everyone was no longer so superstitious. It was just that some Soviets used this to inspire their soldiers. No matter what, new changes have occurred on the battlefield of the Soviet-Germany, and both sides have begun to become nervous.
