The crushing strength of 1714

A very interesting way to understand World War II on Earth is to analyze the outcome of the war from the perspective of each country's steel production, automobile production and other production capacities.

This state of affairs, which at the most advanced level involves a general war and a war for national power, and at the most simple level means fighting a war of attrition for resources and production capacity, has gradually made war lose its so-called beauty.

This is the reason why many people like Germany in World War II: it may be the last bold attempt by mankind to use its own wisdom and strategy to challenge a powerful opponent. After this war, all countries began to tend to use paper

Use the above data to calculate your own victory or defeat.

The strong are strong, and the weak have no room for resistance. The development of technology has made human calculations and strategies useless. Chances are almost invisible anymore. Only a group of mathematicians are left to calculate a large number of things.

A bunch of boring numbers.

So even though the Allies gave birth to many dazzling generals and famous commanders during World War II, it is difficult for people to like them. There is no way, their basic tactics to defeat their opponents are too lacking in aesthetics, from weapons to

From the design to the battlefield organization, there is only one idea: rely on logistics to crush the opponent to death.

They won after losing, and as their opponents fought, they found that they could not defeat more and more enemies on the opposite side... This is why people talk about Napoleon, but are not so familiar with Kutuzov

The reasons for Wellington and other generals.

Today, the automobile output of the Tang Empire is almost ten times that of its opponent, and the industrial production capacity of the Western Continent has completely surpassed that of the Eastern Continent. According to calculations of national strength, there is no suspense about this war.

The Tang Empire can lose once, twice, or countless times, but the Eastern Continent only needs to lose once to be overthrown. Sadly, because of the disparity in strength, the Eastern Continent Allied Forces want to win once on the battlefield.

Victory is difficult to achieve.

Even after losing the large mines in the northern part of the Ice Empire and the oil fields and other facilities in the north, the total output value of the Eastern Continent Allied Forces has dropped to less than one-third of that of the Tang Empire.

Note that the "allied forces" mentioned here are not currently able to calculate the production capacity of the Nanla Empire, an empire that did not participate in the war.

The Lions Empire has begun to deploy its troops into the Elf Empire, the Dorne Empire's expeditionary force is fighting bloody battles in Ironforge, and the Sussus Empire's troops are also blocking the Tang Empire's southward movement in the Ice Empire.

However, the Tang Empire's troops are fighting more and more, and they are really getting stronger: not only the 11th and 9th armies attacking Ironforge, but the other armies are also constantly advancing their own fronts.

The 1st and 7th Army advanced horizontally in Port Rewind and the border area, and already controlled a large area. The 3rd Army and the newly arrived 10th Army also expanded the occupied area near Saint-Lo.

Six group armies were lined up in a row, with a total strength of more than 1.5 million. There was no so-called risk of being defeated for a Tang army of this size.

On the other hand, the coalition forces participating in the battle included five elven armies from the 4th to 8th, three light infantry armies from the Sussus Empire, two armies from the Dorne Empire, one army from the Lions Empire, and the 8th to 15th Dwarf armies.

Including the 3rd Army, there are a total of 9 armies.

Although the strength of the coalition forces is still very impressive in terms of numbers, in fact the combat effectiveness of these troops has indeed declined significantly.

The 11th and 12th armies, which the dwarves have been fighting in cooperation with the three armies of the Sussus Empire, have been almost disabled. Several armies gathered near Ironforge are also on the verge of collapse.

The elves have already fought all the way and retreated to the mainland. Dorn's troops have entered Ironforge one after another to refuel, but in fact they have not played a decisive role.

With the arrival of snow, the logistical supplies of these troops have become difficult, and it is completely impossible to expect them to counterattack. So despite the fact that the coalition has 20 armies on paper, in fact, almost all of the more than 4 million people are being passively beaten.

The huge gap in the strength of the two sides can also be seen from the paper data: the Tang Army has deployed more than 2,000 combat aircraft of various types on the Eastern Continent, while the total number of the coalition's air force is only about 2,500.

Calculating the absolute difference in the quality of the aircraft between the two sides, the air power of the two sides is about 100 to 1. The air power of the Tang army is a hundred times that of the coalition forces.

Although the Tang Army is still smaller than the Allied Forces in terms of strength, the six armies have a total of more than 2,500 tanks, the vast majority of which are advanced Type 96 main battle tanks.

On the other hand, on the coalition side, the number of tanks owned by the 20 armies has dropped to less than 2,000, and the vast majority of them are old World War II-level models.

Under such comparison of data, the advantage of the coalition forces in terms of military strength cannot be reflected at all. Therefore, when reflected on the battlefield, the coalition forces are being beaten and defeated everywhere.

In late November, the 3rd Army of the Tang Dynasty fought a beautiful battle of annihilation about 110 kilometers east of Saint-Lô, annihilating three infantry divisions of the Sousas Empire, and the entire front began to collapse.

The dwarf 11th Army and the 12th Army had to abandon their original positions and collapsed towards Ironforge. They were short of major generals, and it was completely unrealistic to expect them to block the Tang army.

Susas's three light infantry armies lost almost all of their reserve forces after this battle, and had to choose to retreat closer to the mountains southwest of Ironforge for replenishment.

Strauss led the 3rd Army in hot pursuit and fixed the battle line at the foot of the mountains southwest of Ironforge. After this battle, the Tang Army almost controlled two-thirds of the Ice Empire.

In the past, the two sides fought inextricably, almost fighting for every inch of territory, but this time they achieved such huge results after only wiping out three divisions, which fully illustrates the collapse of the coalition's combat effectiveness.

The collapse of the central front directly caused a gap in the entire coalition defense line. The elves had to mobilize the 9th and 10th Group Armies, originally planned to strengthen a certain direction, to the border to defend against the possible southward offensive of the Tang Army's 10th Group Army.

The direct impact of this was that the elves' defense in the direction of Rewind Port was weakened, and the planned counterattack was completely ruined.

Strauss's attack was a great success, but it also disappointed many senior leaders of the coalition who had hoped that the Tang Army would suspend its offensive when winter came.

Now a very terrifying news is before them: the Tang Empire is also constantly attacking in winter, so what methods should they use to prevent this kind of thing from happening again?
