East Prussia, Königsberg. Qin Tian came back here again.

   Now is the time of war, Qin Tian found that he seems to prefer to stay with the army. In troubled times, it is undoubtedly every man's dream to build a career. Even though Qin Tian is now the crown prince of the empire, he still has a dream of being a general in his heart. The 8th Army, under his leadership, has won one victory after another on the battlefield.

  When Qin Tian rushed back to Königsberg from Berlin, the 8th Army had already completed its rest. And, according to the scheduled plan, military operations began. Only the general staff remains in Königsberg. The 11th Army, 17th Army, and 20th Army under the 8th Army, as well as the 8th Armored Division, have left the station successively, crossed the border between East Prussia and the Kingdom of Poland, and began to march towards Warsaw.

   "Is our advance going smoothly now? Have we encountered any resistance from the Russians?" Qin Tian asked as soon as he entered the Eighth Army's staff headquarters.

"Your Highness, the advancement of all ministries is relatively smooth at present, and there is no resistance from the Russians for the time being. The Northwest Front Army of the Russian Army was almost wiped out by our army before. Although they have sent reinforcements, they have not yet arrived. The whole There are only 10,000 to 20,000 Russian troops left in the Kingdom of Poland. And, almost all of them are huddled in Warsaw. Therefore, we can advance all the way quickly. At this speed, it only takes five days for us to reach Warsaw .” Major General Ludendorff introduced to Qin Tian.

  Qin Tian nodded, and the aftereffects of the almost complete annihilation of the Russian Northwest Front Army have already appeared. The Russian army that has not yet completed mobilization has no power to stop the advance of the German 8th Army on the battlefield of the Kingdom of Poland.

   "What reinforcements did the Russians send to the Kingdom of Poland? How many are there? When will they arrive in the Kingdom of Poland?" Qin Tian asked.

"Our friends from the Buddist Party have already provided us with information. Tsar Nicholas II ordered the 9th Army of the Russian Army and the 2nd Guards Army to reinforce the Kingdom of Poland. However, these two corps are still on their way , it will take at least a week to reach Warsaw. If we destroy the railway line, it will take them even longer. When they arrive in Warsaw, they will find that Warsaw has fallen into our hands." On the Hindenburg Will laughed.

"The 9th Army and the 2nd Guards Army? Isn't the 9th Army fighting against the Austro-Hungarian Empire? How come there is still room to go north? The 2nd Guards Army is the main force of the Russians defending Moscow. Nicholas II this Once, is it going to cost money?" Qin Tian asked.

"Your Highness, the Russian Ninth Army's ability to go north is undoubtedly the reason why our ally, the Austro-Hungarian Empire, was unable to hold the Russians back. Otherwise, how dare they deploy their troops to go north? In fact, the Austro-Hungarian Empire is fighting with The Russians did not fight well on the battlefield, and they have already been defeated by the Russians. If it weren't for their sufficient strength, they might have collapsed." Major General Ludendorff looked contemptuous.

  Although, the Austro-Hungarian Empire is a staunch ally of the German Empire. However, these generals of the German Army looked down on the combat effectiveness of the Austro-Hungarian Army.

"The Russians were vulnerable in the battle with us. However, in the battle with the Austro-Hungarian Army, they seemed to be very capable. Sometimes I really doubt that the Russian army we encountered, Is it the same Russian army? Could it be that the Russians sent all their elites to fight against the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and the people who came to deal with us were the mob instead?” Admiral Hindenburg was also a little amused.

   Actually, it might just be the opposite. You must know that the Northwest Front Army of the Russian Army is the main force that has assembled the standing army of the Russian Army. What the Austro-Hungarian Army had to face was only a small number of main forces of the Russian Army. The other troops are second-line troops. But even so, the Austro-Hungarian Army failed to win. It can be seen how bad their combat effectiveness is.

   "The Austro-Hungarian Army has been weak for a long time, so we can't force them too much. It's not bad that they can hold back hundreds of thousands of Russians for us." Qin Tian said.

   Qin Tian is very clear about the combat effectiveness of the Austro-Hungarian Army. In another time and space, their performance was very bad. It can be said that whether it was against the Russians, the Serbs, or the Italians later, it was all thanks to the help of the German Army. Otherwise, they would not be able to win at all.

"As for the 2nd Guards Army of the Russian Army, its combat effectiveness should indeed not be weak. But that's all. The 8th Army is still confident of defeating them. Nicholas II sent out the 2nd Guards Army, but there is no It's a matter of solution. Who made the mobilization efficiency of the Russian army so low? The Kingdom of Poland is very important to Russia. If the Kingdom of Poland is lost, Russia will be very passive in this war. As a last resort, Only Tsar Nicholas II would call out the 2nd Guards Army." Major General Ludendorff said.

   "If we defeat the 2nd Guards Army again, will Nicholas II also send out the 1st Guards Army?" Qin Tian asked.

   "What does Your Highness mean?" Admiral Hindenburg and Major General Ludendorff were a little puzzled, they knew that Qin Tian would not raise this question without reason.

"The 1st Guards Army is a force defending St. Petersburg. If the 1st Guards Army is deployed, it will inevitably empty St. Petersburg. Our Russian friends seem to have a chance. As long as Russia is in chaos, it will be easier for us to obtain Victory." Qin Tian said with a smile.

   "Your Highness, it is entirely possible." Admiral Hindenburg's eyes lit up.

   "Your Highness, it seems that we have to modify the battle plan. We must find a way to wipe it out, at least severely damage the 1st Russian Guards Army." Ludendorff also laughed.

"Gentlemen, it seems that you have understood what I mean. Well, let's do it! I suggest that the headquarters be moved from Königsberg to the front, preferably not far from Warsaw. In this way If so, we can grasp the situation on the front line as soon as possible." Qin Tian suggested.

  Hindenburg and Ludendorff did not reject Qin Tian's proposal.

  That afternoon, Qin Tian and the others set off from Königsberg and took the train to the southern border of East Prussia. There, change another car and head to Warsaw.
