"This is really a strange war. Are they just facing each other like that?"

Stalin listened to the intelligence reported by Beria from the German-Polish front.

He had now begun to doubt the sincerity of the Germans in fighting, because a few days after the war started, they were still parked in their own territory without firing a single shot.

"Yes, Comrade Stalin, the German and Polish armies did not fire a single shot. Even our agents saw the troops in their border areas greeting each other in a very friendly manner."

"This... what on earth are these guys playing?"

There was no sign of war at all on the German and Polish fronts that had declared war. It was even as if the Germans had not seen the fortifications being built by the Poles on the border.

The Germans often flew over Poland with their eagle eyes, but the Poles also ignored it. They did not warn and did not take off any planes to intercept.

If Mike Lang saw it, he would say: "Damn it, can acting be so substandard?"

Correspondingly, France, Britain and Germany, two sides that had declared war, were stopped at the border. It was as if the politicians in the world had all become peace-loving guys in an instant.

"This is not normal, Comrade Beria, I think this is definitely not a normal reaction. Should we strengthen the vigilance in the fortified areas between us and Poland? You know if the Germans have any transactions with the Poles

, there’s no guarantee they won’t break through our country’s borders from there!”

Beria, who brought this news, naturally understood that Stalin's actions showed that he was always worried about what tricks the Chinese Federation was playing.

"If they don't take action, then we will cause some trouble for Germany. Comrade Beria, you have to try to tell the French through some channels the possible time when the war on the French side will start.

Regardless of whether the news is correct or not, it will not be a big loss for us."

If the French took advantage of the fight between the Germans and the Poles to stab the Germans in the back, it would certainly not cause the Germans to fail, but when Poland was divided in the future, the Soviet Red Army could occupy more places.

These conditions were discussed in the secret agreement between the Soviet Union and Germany. However, if enough places were occupied, the Soviet Union would have a more advantageous position in negotiations with the Germans.

With this decision, Beria began to reshape the information obtained from the empress of the Russian royal family in exile, Angelica Fritz, and hand it over to the French.

As for strengthening the fortification area on the front line, that is a matter for the Belarusian-Lithuanian Military District.

In order to implement the orders from the Kremlin, Zhukov, as commander, personally visited the fortress area for inspection.

"It has to be said that the fast front has changed the way war is fought. With these strong fortresses, the offensive force required for offensive warfare is much greater than in the past!"

The rapid front, a fortress construction plan originating from the Western Front battlefield of World War I, has indeed brought about tremendous changes in combat styles.

As shown in the battlefields of World War I and subsequent wars, fortification areas that can quickly build and complete firepower systems are indeed fortresses that are not easy to conquer. In this regard, the Soviet Red Army is building its own national border fortifications.

When establishing a region, it has its own characteristics.

The rapid front constructed by the Soviet Red Army had a completely different appearance from that constructed by the Chinese Federal Defense Forces.

The thicker resistance hub and numerous heavy artillery constitute the main strike and protection force of the resistance hub.

Different from the isolated resistance hubs of the Chinese Federation on the surface, the Soviet Red Army's fortification area has a continuous "wall" based on bunkers. The side facing the outside is drilled with gun holes, and the windows and doors are left to the inside.

.

In addition, there were huge trench systems outside these resistance hubs. In other words, the Soviet fortification areas actually served the purpose of stationing troops and launching attacks.

Once the attacking party suffers heavy losses during the attack and reinforcements arrive, the fortification area with the function of garrisoning troops can quickly launch a counterattack. Even while defending, the external trench system can be used at any time to launch attacks on the attacking enemy.

attack.

Zhukov was satisfied with the overall defense capabilities of the fortified areas. The only thing that these fortified areas were not equipped with were ground-attack rotary-wing attack aircraft due to the capabilities of the commanding personnel.

In the strike system in fortified areas, rotary-wing attack aircraft should play a very important role. In the Soviet Red Army, there is more love for powerful artillery.

Even compared to aerial firepower, artillery, a firepower strike system that does not require more coordination, is more popular with the Red Army.

After all, the system that supports aircraft attacks is relatively more complex than the system that pays for artillery. The requirements for personnel quality are also higher, and the relatively complex logistics and maintenance also make the fortress have to bear more burdens.

This is where Zhukov is slightly dissatisfied.

The solution is to have a system of field airports and military airports behind the fortified areas. At the same time, each resistance hub also has some personnel from the Air Force to coordinate ground and air strike forces.

Arriving at the outpost not far from the border, this was the last stop of Zhukov's inspection and the key area of ​​his inspection.

The Soviet Red Army at this time did not pay enough attention to the role of radar. With the improvement of the Soviet Union's manufacturing capabilities, the Soviet Red Army, which had long stopped purchasing equipment on a large scale from the Chinese Federation, did not pay attention to advanced reconnaissance equipment such as radar.

enough attention.

The periscope-type high-magnification observation scope is the most long-range observation equipment at the border outpost between the Soviet Union and Poland. There is no need to mention radar, nor eagle eye, nor even a simple Apple gyroplane.

The observation post built on the high ground is equipped with an 82mm mortar, a 75mm short-barreled mountain gun, and a 12.7mm high-level and flat dual-purpose machine gun.

A company of soldiers is stationed in old-fashioned fast-attack bunkers on various highlands. Small resistance bases with platoons as units use 60mm mortars as suppressive firepower.

They usually use telephones and radios to communicate with patrols. The main communication with the rear is radio stations.

"Comrade Lieutenant General, our task is to promptly report to the battalion command post in the rear when we observe signs of enemy actions. At the same time, we must hold the post until our counterattack troops arrive, and coordinate with the counterattack troops to launch an attack on the enemy..."

Zhukov listened word by word to the report given to him by the lieutenant and company commander. He knew that some inexplicable orders might come from their political commissar, but this matter was not something he could control.

When he finally looked at the company's supply reserves, he was quite satisfied. The Soviet soldiers had not given up the habits they had developed in the past poverty. There were a large number of bullets piled up in the warehouses in the underground passages connected to the main resistance hub.

Artillery shells, food and other supplies.

"The supplies here, under high-intensity combat conditions, can enable us to hold on to this mountain for three days, or even longer until our counterattack forces arrive!"

——————————————————————————————————————————Through the large-diameter periscope telescope, Zhukov observed Poland

There is basically no abnormal situation at the border post there. The soldiers are still carrying out their usual training. Occasionally, an apple with supply and reconnaissance missions will take off.

"Comrade Lieutenant General, those little guys are almost transparent, and they often fly close to the ground. If you don't pay attention, such small and silent little guys are not easy to see."

The lieutenant company commander and the company's political instructor followed Zhukov, introducing him to every detail that interested him. It could be heard from his voice that he was a little nervous!

"Comrade Company Commander, have the people at the Polish post opposite done anything unusual, or have they conducted any reconnaissance activities against us?"

"Without Comrade Lieutenant General, we didn't detect any movement on their part. You see, you can see most of the buildings of their outpost from here, and we didn't even see the flash of the telescope.

However, if they use that almost transparent small plane for observation, it will not be easy to detect!"

Zhukov frowned. The second half of this sentence had an obvious meaning of shirking responsibility. He wanted to criticize the lieutenant company commander, but when he thought about it, such a thing was not uncommon.

There is a current trend in the Red Army, and peace in the world is the main purpose of the army. As for preparations for war, it is just a boring exercise going through the motions.

When it comes to worrying too much or raising more dangers, others will often label them as panicked. As a result, there is such a situation in the army. When something happens, everyone would rather drive it away from them.

rather than bothering to figure it out.

Regarding military and war issues, everything is subject to orders. Without orders from superiors, no changes should be made in anything. Regardless of whether they are good or bad changes, it is best not to occur.

The above mentioned are the strange phenomena in the strange war. This is not only true on the border between the Soviet Union and Poland, but also on the German and French sides. They do not even have aerial reconnaissance.

So will this dead and silent world exist forever? Or is this just a manifestation of a conspiracy, a conspiracy that is about to begin and is being secretly carried out?

Yes, Germany's reaction was entirely a temporary pause because Thunder International had to go to Spain.
