Imperial Overlord

: 1184 Silent Eastern Front

The battlefield far away in the Pacific Ocean is in full swing at this moment, but on the battlefield of Sude, the battle begins to quiet down.

Germany, which had captured almost all of Ukraine, gave up the offensive, and the Soviet Union was also happy to see its shrinking forces on the defensive.

Both sides are waiting for the temperature to drop, while also preparing for winter. Compared with Hitler's arrogance, Li Le is a real "Buddhist head of state".

He calmly prepared the supplies for the entire army for the winter, and then before the winter came, he ordered the army to stop the offensive, and concentrated on organizing the transportation and dispatching work.

Then, a large number of cotton clothes began to arrive at the front line, and the German soldiers who had been in the trenches for half a month were waiting for their reserves of grain and ammunition.

In northern Ukraine, the German Army Group B is located in the headquarters outside Kharkov. Guderian is with his officer corps, checking the winter preparations of the army headquarters.

"My requirements are very low. Do all the soldiers have tents? Are all the warm-keeping equipment distributed?" Looking at his assistant, Guderian asked with a serious face.

"General, we have checked twice here. The entire army is preparing for the winter, and according to the regulations and requirements, our preparations are quite adequate." His adjutant replied.

Guderian's requirements are indeed very low, but the Führer's requirements are high. All materials are distributed according to the requirements of the head of state, so the specifications are not low at all.

Then, the officer of the tank unit continued to report: "All tanks have been distributed with antifreeze, and the oil is also equipped with corresponding winter-specific oil. The tank unit can exercise at any time in winter."

The winter preparations carried out by the German army on the front line this time can be said to be extremely meticulous: each link has a special person in charge, and the grassroots responsibilities are assigned to the platoon leader or even the squad leader.

How often should the oil be changed for each tank, and how much antifreeze should be added to the oil, there are strict operational regulations.

It can be said responsibly that Germany's winter preparations are not at all lost to the Soviet troops who are familiar with the Russian winter.

In even more respects, the German military did better than their Soviet counterparts.

"Very well, what I want is that they can fight... This state must be maintained." Guderian was very satisfied with the progress, he nodded and said.

The battle for Kharkov is about to come to an end. As Zhukov retreated with the main force, the city became a German occupation zone, and it became a matter of time.

With the support of this city, it means that with the support of the railway, in the spring of next year, the railway capacity behind the German troops may be doubled!

"The four infantry divisions all have their own fixed winter areas, and there are houses to avoid the heavy snow..." His adjutant pointed to the numbers on the report and said to his commander.

"We are logging, setting up suitable barracks, and there are fixed camps behind all the defense lines, and artillerymen are deploying their own artillery positions," he said, pointing to the distant construction site.

There was a real busy scene: German troops were logging massive amounts of wood to build their own camps for the winter.

Even if these troops are transferred away, the remaining camps can be used by subsequent troops, which is very convenient.

In terms of building such camps, the German SS troops have very rich experience: it is similar to the concentration camp labor camp, but it does not need so many barbed wire and power grids.

Coupled with equipment such as water and electricity, such a camp can be built at a very fast speed, and then a regiment or a battalion of troops can quickly enter it and enjoy the warm barracks treatment.

The troops also spontaneously built their own garrisons, and behind their own defense lines, establishing a relatively warm camp was also a way to improve their combat effectiveness.

There are even some barracks where pianos can be found, and most of the regiments above the regiment level have dedicated movie theaters... In several large division-level camps, there are even flat courts for the soldiers to use when they are resting.

"The ammunition is very sufficient. As long as we stop, there will be a steady flow of ammunition from the rear." The officer in charge of weapons and ammunition also said at this time.

The transportation conditions have never been so good, so that everyone has an optimistic mood: the logistics troops have always been chasing the front-line troops, and now the front-line troops have finally stopped.

On the one hand, because the transportation distance is shortened, the automobile transportation link from the railway station to the front line is also fixed as the front line is fixed, which improves the transportation and supply environment in Germany.

On the other hand, the German front-line troops who gave up large-scale advancement also saved a lot, the consumption of ammunition became less, and natural supplies and hoarding became easier.

"The grain reserve is also very good. Even if the heavy snow destroys the transportation line~www.wuxiaspot.com~ we can support it for at least a month." The officer in charge of the grain also mentioned the grain reserve.

When it comes to food, this is where Germany did better than the Soviet Union: they captured most of Ukraine between August and September, and got a bumper crop.

Going back to the food and vegetable plan implemented by Deputy Head of State Hess in the country, Germany and its occupied areas have also achieved a bumper harvest.

At least at the level of hunger, Germany is fully capable of being self-sufficient, which also allows Germany to make more strategic adjustments.

The first direction of adjustment is to reserve more food on the front line so that millions of troops can spend the winter in the Soviet Union.

On the other hand, it is to improve the food in German labor camps and concentration camps - these labor camps produce more and more products, and various capital consortia are reluctant to starve these skilled workers to death.

In fact, when it comes to hatred, the German high-level leaders are far from unforgettable about the Jews. As long as it is heard that the Jews who should be killed can bring economic benefits, the nonsense of killing all the Jews is rarely mentioned.

As for the Führer's famous speech about the Jews, everyone chose to forget—you see, even if the Führer forgot, who would kill everyone's fortunes?

The so-called grain in hand does not panic, you can import a large amount of grain from abroad, and you have achieved a bumper harvest in your own country and the occupied areas. The problem of food and clothing for the Third Reich has actually been solved.

After solving the problem of food and clothing, the increase in industrial output value has become a matter of course.
