Germanic Empire: please call me William III

In the northern battlefield of Gaul, the various armies of the Germanic Imperial Army advanced southward according to the predetermined plan.
Eight armies, almost lined up in a row, formed a frontal assault of more than two hundred kilometers.
Moreover, according to the plan of the Germanic Imperial General Staff, three armies with armored divisions, to control the speed of the assault, after breaking through the sun and the Gallic defenses, suspended the continuation of the attack to the south, but attacked to the sides, assisting the other armies, encircling the main forces of the Sun and the Gauls.
It was the strict implementation of this tactic that made the Advance of the Germanic Imperial Army, although not fast. However, every step is steady. At the same time, in the process, a large number of troops of the Gaul Army and the Imperial Expeditionary Force of the Sun Never Set were encircled.
This severely weakened the effective forces of the Gaul Army and the Imperial Expeditionary Force.
If this continues, the end result will be that the Gauls and the Sun Will Never Set will become weaker and weaker. Eventually, they would no longer be able to resist the Germanic Army.
Although, during the battle, the Germanic Imperial Army also inevitably suffered some losses.
However, there is strong artillery fire support, and it is also possible to get air support from the Air Force. In addition, armored units tend to rush to the front.
Under such circumstances, the losses of the Germanic Army were undoubtedly much smaller.
Three days later, the Germanic Army had begun its offensive against the important cities of Amiens, Saint-Quentin and Reims in northern Gaul.
Despite the attempts of the Imperial Expeditionary Force and the Gallic Army to hold these important cities.
But their resistance was in vain.
In particular, the Germanic Imperial Army used a large number of artillery and aircraft to directly bombard the city indiscriminately, and even dispatched large-caliber train guns to participate in the shelling. This made these cities quickly blown into ruins. The Imperial Expeditionary Force and the Gallic Army stationed in the city suffered heavy losses.
Even so, in the midst of fierce street battles, the Germanic Imperial Army would have to pay some price to eliminate the recalcitrant Sun and Gaul.
This allowed the Germanic Army to throw in armored units even in urban street battles. Tanks and armored vehicles were topped in front as meat shields to cover the subsequent infantry attack.
Due to the lack of anti-tank weapons, the Gauls and the Sun could not take this offensive tactic of the Germanic Imperial Army. But if the Gauls and the Sun Never Set were equipped with a large number of anti-tank weapons. If tanks and armored vehicles enter the city to engage in street battles, they are undoubtedly looking for death.
At close range, the power of anti-tank weapons can be fully exerted.
Overall, the situation on the battlefield was still very favorable to the Germanic Army.
Although the Gauls and the Sun Never Set have tried their best. However, they were still unable to stop the Attack of the Germanic Imperial Army.
“Your Excellency, Commander, we have already taken half of amiens. Although there are still more than 100,000 days in the city, people will not fall into stubborn resistance. But in just a few days, we should be able to wipe them all out! Lieutenant General Frank, chief of staff of the 1st Army, smiled.
Admiral Kluke nodded expressionlessly, though the troops were progressing well. However, he did not seem to be very satisfied.
“It’s late October. Soon, winter will come. It seems that there is no way for us to win it before the end of this year! Admiral Kluke sighed.
Barri is the capital of the old enemy of Gaul, and if it can be invaded, what a great honor!
Admiral Kluke no doubt wanted his troops to receive this glory.
“Your Excellency, Commander, the battle plan of His Majesty the Emperor and the General Staff is to ask us to fight steadily. We simply did not expect to be able to end the war this year. Lieutenant General Frank reminded.
“I know. Still, I want to give it a try! How many tanks and armored vehicles does the 1st Panzer Division have left to continue fighting? Admiral Kluke asked.
“Your Excellency, Commander, the 1st Panzer Division has suffered considerable losses in the previous battles, and now only one hundred and eighty tanks and one hundred and twenty armored vehicles remain.” Lieutenant General Frank answered.
“It’s good, it should be almost enough. I thought about it this way, and entrusted the battle here in Amiens to the 4th Army. Our main force, bypassing Amiens, marched directly to Barri. From Amiens to bar, it is only about a hundred kilometers. If all goes well, in three or four days at most, we will be able to hit the outskirts of Bari and see the Eiffel Tower! Admiral Kluke proposed.
Lieutenant General Frank was stunned, and seemed to be frightened by Admiral Kluke’s boldness, which was a blatant act of disobedience!
“General, I am afraid that this will make His Majesty the Emperor and His Excellency the Chief of the General Staff very dissatisfied. In addition, there are still more than 100,000 recalcitrant enemies in Amiens City, and it is difficult to eat the 4th Army alone! Frank reminded.
Admiral Kluke thought for a moment and then said, “I’m going to try it anyway.” Three infantry divisions were left to assist the 4th Army. The rest of the troops, bypassing Amiens, quickly advanced south! ”
Subsequently, Admiral Kluk gave orders in the name of the commander of army group, leaving the 71st, 81st, and 91st infantry divisions to assist the 4th Army in continuing to attack the enemy in Amiens, while the rest of the main army group force quickly moved south.
Admiral Kluke’s unauthorized action made Admiral Moltke Jr. furious.
If there is an accident, it will undoubtedly affect the entire front.
August was also dissatisfied with this, and in his last meeting he had specifically stressed that the troops must obey orders. As a result, Admiral Kluke went his own way.
However, it is now during the war, and it is even more taboo to change the generals before the battle. Therefore, August, although very dissatisfied with General Kluq, did not forcibly replace him, but only gave orders to the 4th Army that they must completely annihilate Amiens’s enemy forces.
At the same time, Auguste ordered the 7th Army, as a reserve, to maneuver by rail to the south of the Kingdom of Belgium. If the attack on the front line did not go well, they would quickly increase their plans to the front line and continue to ensure the offensive power of the Germanic Army.
Admiral Kluke didn’t care about this at all, and his troops were already advancing rapidly into the bar.
