Marshal Roml did not return to the headquarters until 9 am on June 18. When he rushed back to the headquarters of the Ninth Army, Lieutenant General Erich Hoppner, the chief of staff, had already led the army's two armored divisions and four chanized infantry divisions to attack. Their target will be Joseph. Either capture Joseph or kill Joseph. In short, Joseph cannot be allowed to live any longer.
This task was handed over to Lieutenant General Erich Hoepner, and Marshal Roml also believed that Lieutenant General Erich Hoepner would be able to complete this task. In this regard, he no longer worried.
After returning to the headquarters, Marshal Roml summoned several other army commanders of Army Group C, including the army commander of the slave country. This ti, the German army will no longer engage in low-intensity battles with the Russian army in Moscow, but is preparing to end the battle in Moscow in the shortest possible ti. Therefore, Marshal Roml is about to issue a new combat order.
"Everyone, we originally planned to consu the vital forces of the Russian army in Moscow. In the past month, our troops have also fought very well and completed the scheduled combat objectives. Unfortunately, the Russians have seen through our plan. .They have stopped sending additional reinforcents to Moscow. So, we don't have to implent the previous combat plan!" Marshal Roml said.
The commanders of the various armies are actually clear about this. They also understand that when the Russians no longer continue to invest in Moscow, the German army will naturally not allow the Russian army to continue to occupy Moscow. The German army will wipe out the Russian army here in the shortest possible ti and end the war as soon as possible.
"His Majesty the Emperor has issued an order for us to intensify our attack and take Moscow in the shortest possible ti. Therefore, our vacation is over. From now on, all armies must send more troops to Moscow The battle is underway!" said Field Marshal Roml.
All the generals laughed, the previous offensive was not violent. For the German army and the servants, it seed like they were on vacation. If it weren't for the fierce fighting between the troops of both sides in the city of Moscow, they might really have thought they were on vacation.
"Starting tomorrow, the armies will double in size and send more troops into Moscow. I hope that we can completely take Moscow within a month!" Marshal Roml said.
"Yes, Your Excellency the Marshal!" The generals of each group army replied.
During the previous attack on Moscow, the 13 German armies each sent an infantry division to attack. The armies of the 29 slave countries also dispatched an infantry division each, and a total of 42 infantry divisions fought in Moscow. Now, the strength of the troops will be doubled, which ans that the troops sent by the German army and its allies to Moscow will increase to 84 infantry divisions, with a total strength of more than 1.5 million people.
Although, the troops invested by the German army and its allies may still be inferior to the Russian army in Moscow. However, the troops of the German army and its allies will withdraw from Moscow to rest after fighting in the city for a certain period of ti, and rotate other troops to enter the city to fight. The troops of the Russian army have no chance of rotation. In addition, the weapons and equipnt of the German army and its allies are already ahead of the Russian army, and they can also receive powerful artillery and air force fire support. This will give the German army and its allies an advantage in the battle inside Moscow. Even if the Russian army in the city continued to resist, it would not be so easy to resist the German attack.
"In addition, we will deploy troops to attack the eastern part of Moscow and completely close the siege of Moscow. The Russian army in Moscow will no longer be able to get supplies. This will wipe out all the Russian troops in Moscow in one fell swoop!" Long i Marshal Er continued to order.
"The 7th Army, the 16th Army, the 17th Army, and the 18th Army each deployed one chanical infantry division and two infantry divisions to participate in the attack. In addition, the Ukrainian Sixth Army, the Hungarian Seventh Army, and the Bohemian Army Sub-5th Army, participate in the offensive, and completely block Moscow's eastern defense line. Prevent the Russian army from breaking out from there!" Marshal Roml then ordered.
"Yes, Your Excellency Marshal." The commanders of several army groups replied.
"Very well, so be it. God bless us, we will win!" Marshal Roml said.
"The Empire will win!" Everyone shouted.
In fact, not only the generals of the German army rejoiced after learning that the German navy had defeated the U.S. Navy in the Atlantic Ocean. Those servant countries and protectorates of Germany are even more determined. The hearts they had been hanging on for a long ti finally returned to their stomachs. Everyone believes that Germany will definitely win this world war when it already has an absolute advantage. Under such circumstances, everyone will work harder to fight for Germany. After all, after Germany won the World War, it was of great benefit to them.
Not only Marshal Roml issued an order to launch a general attack on Moscow, but Marshal Guderian and Marshal Bromberg also issued such an order. It's just that Army Group B is strengthening its attack on Moscow. And Army Group A also dispatched an army to attack the east of Moscow, and together with Army Group C, closed the siege of Moscow.
On the morning of June 19, the German attack began. A large number of German troops launched a fierce attack on the Russian positions east of Moscow. Although there are quite a few troops in the Russian army stationed in this area. However, under the onslaught of the elite troops of the German army, they couldn't resist at all, and could only watch helplessly as the German army captured their positions and closed the siege of Moscow.
The German army not only closed the siege of Moscow, but also closed the siege of Josephgrad. The German Army Group E dispatched a unit and successfully crossed the lower Volga River. Then, he went upstream and captured Volgasky in one fell swoop. As a result, the Russian army stationed in Josephgrad had no way to get support through the Volga River channel.
Before, the Russian army stationed in Josephgrad could get support from Volgasky. Both soldiers and supplies can be transported from the Volga River to Josephgrad. However, when Volgasky fell into the hands of the German army, the German army's encirclent of Volgograd was closed. The Russian army was completely surrounded in Josephgrad, and the only way to wait for them was to be annihilated by the German army.
