Chapter 1526： Borusinov offensive 2 (1/2)
Chapter 1526 Borusinov offensive (2)
”Hold on, I'm concentrating my troops. Your army is at the junction of the two Hungarian armies. If this is broken, the Hungarian Third Army and the Fourth Army will be divided! This is a very serious consequence! ”Lieutenant General Saicot said firmly.
”I can only do my best. The Russians’ attack power is a little bit beyond our expectations. If we don’t get assistance after 5 days, then our division can only choose to retreat. Your Excellency General, after this time of preparation, You can at least free up another division's strength, right?” Major General Bok said.
”However, I am worried that Archduke Karl may not agree that we put all the troops to one point. I am worried that he will dismantle and use the Germans. Therefore, I must keep enough reserves on hand.” Lieutenant General Seckett thought. I want to say, now that the Russian army has launched a full-line offensive, hundreds of kilometers of the front are everywhere in a group. After analysis, the lieutenant general thought that the Russians were really crazy this time, and the whole family went straight to the old and young without leaving behind. At this time, as Karl is very likely to disperse the elite German army, and then stop the leak.
However, neither Secot nor Bok expected that the Austrians could not hold on to it when the German army, who was in the middle and under the most pressure, was still insisting.
”I can guarantee that in this offensive, when we broke through the middle of the front, we concentrated most of our forces on the Germans. We want to open the connection between the Hungarian Third Army and the Fourth Army, and then send us The cavalry of China separated the two armies, and then they were eaten separately. So at the beginning, our attack on the two Hungarian armies was just a feint. However, what I didn’t expect was that we held our position in the German army. When they were stuck, the Hungarians voluntarily gave up the way forward!” Borusinov wrote in his post-war memoirs.
When the battle progressed to the second day, the Russian army made a major breakthrough, and then the breakthrough point was not the Bok division with at least 3 Russian divisions, but the Hungarian Third Army in the north! In the feint on the first day, groups of Russian troops successfully rushed into the first line of defense of the Hungarian Army under the cover of artillery fire. It took half a day to occupy the first line of defense, and then arrived at the first line of defense after eating at noon. Second, and occupied the second line of defense 2.5 kilometers from the first line of defense before dark.
When the sun rose the next day, when the Russian generals who had been carrying out the containment mission were still considering whether to continue to break through, the scout sent a piece of news that shocked the Russians! The Hungarian Legion on the third line of defense has been withdrawn. At present, the scouts are rushing to the fourth line of defense!
At this time, the general Korninov infantry in charge of this attack point, after accidentally discovering that the Hungarian Army had retreated without a fight, the Russian general who had escaped from Warsaw decided to immediately throw in his two cavalry One of the divisions quickly penetrated the gap of the Hungarian Third Army, and then interspersed behind the Germans!
Facts have proved that the two-legged infantry can't surpass the four-legged cavalry. With the help of the reconnaissance aircraft, this cavalry division quickly bit the retreating 7th Infantry Division of the Hungarian Third Army. Under the circumstance, this retreat that had been considered orderly immediately evolved into a massive retreat...
What's more terrible is that the Hungarian did not notify Bok when he left, so, without knowing it, the flank of the Bok division was exposed to the opponent! With one cavalry division as the vanguard and two infantry divisions as the backup, Yiji's fierce uppercut hit the German flank directly!
