Chapter 30 Guderian
The base in Libya has already stirred up Cyric's desire, and he can't wait to build a modern army! And all this has to start with Guderian!
However, if Guderian is taken to Libya, then Guderian will almost be removed from his current position. What can impress Guderian is to see his late confidant and the beauty of the new army. !
Besides, there is also Hannah!
"Uncle Guderian, it's a pleasure to meet you." A clear female voice came from an office of the Army Transportation Office.
Now Guderian, who is in his thirties, is the golden age of a man. The lines on his face are very tough, with obvious characteristics of a German soldier.
Although he is no longer in the front-line army, but at the transport office in the rear, Guderian is still a soldier, and in his bones, the blood of the Prussian soldiers flows.
Hearing the voice, he knew that it was Hannah. In fact, the information was given to Hannah at that time, but it was just an unintentional act. Hannah was talking about Cyric's name all day long, and Guderian paid attention.
And this time...
Guderian raised his head and was stunned for a moment, this time Hannah did not come alone! Next to her, there is a tall young man!
Why does this young man look so familiar? Guderian's mind trembled suddenly, isn't this the Cyric that Hannah has been shouting all day long?
"Uncle Guderian, it's a pleasure to meet you," Cyric said.
Now, Cyric is only in his early twenties, and he is a dozen years behind Guderian, so he doesn't know his seniority, but it doesn't matter what his name is at this time.
It's right to call Hannah anyway.
Sure enough, Hannah's satisfied smile was extremely bright.
"Cyric, you are the pride of our German soldiers now. Although you have retired, there are still many young people in the army who follow your example." Guderian said: "I am very happy to meet you."
The two stretched out their hands and held it together. Hannah said very wisely, "You guys talk, I'll go find some coffee."
"Cyric, what's the matter with me this time?" Guderian asked.
"There are some immature theories that I would like to discuss with you." Cyric said, "I think the future will be dominated by mechanized troops, and tanks will become the main weapons of war, not vassals of cavalry."
Just this sentence, I saw Guderian's eyes light up!
Guderian's theory is constantly being improved, but now, Guderian's theory has just germinated, and while Guderian was still thinking, someone suddenly came to a conclusion and broke it. His confusion, of course, made him quite excited!
Yes, it is!
In this era, the cavalry seems to be invincible. Every country has established a large number of cavalry units. At the same time, almost all army generals are from cavalry!
No one has dared to say it out loud, the cavalry will withdraw from the stage of history, and the tank will be the main weapon in future wars!
If someone dares to say that, he is either crazy or arrogant!
"In the future war, we can use tanks in a large number and focus, and cooperate closely with aircraft to break through a certain narrow area of the opponent, and then the combined army of tanks and infantry will start to sweep the opponent's positions and strongholds, rapidly expand the occupied area, implement Encircle, close the siege, annihilate the opponent's troops, and rapidly develop victory in depth."
"The firepower, maneuverability, and protection of the tank will become the key to victory. At the same time, the infantry accompanying the tank also needs to have the same mobility as the tank, which can achieve the effect of blitzkrieg."
Cyric's words opened up a new world for Guderian! All the things Guderian was thinking hard about were all broken by Cyric!
A new world opened its doors and unfolded in front of Guderian.
"Uncle Guderian, you have made a wise decision."
"The stage here is too small, and you can't play it at all. Only by going to our new base can you play your strengths."
"It won't be long before we can manufacture advanced tanks, and all of your tactics can be verified in the new base."
Guderian had a wry smile on his face. When he finished writing his retirement report, he wasn't sure if he was doing it right. After all, those who could stay in the 100,000 defense force were all elites!
As a military family, retiring from the army is simply a shame!
However, Guderian knew that he had no choice, because he was persuaded by Cyric!
There will be a large number of soldiers who participated in World War I, and the soldiers who have recovered now will walk into the new base together and train in the new base! In particular, Krupp will manufacture new tanks in the base!
Thinking of Tank, Guderian is itchy, he knows that he can't refuse at all!
Now, seeing Hannah's praise, Guderian couldn't help laughing.
Cyric was full of joy: "When the new base is reached, you will be appointed as the army commander in the base, and I can assure you that it will not be long before you can return to the army with the rank of major general. When you come from the ranks of the Defense Forces, then it is time for you to truly show your abilities."
Back in the army! Cyric was completely under no pressure. When Hitler fooled into the chancellor, the German army would not be allowed to let themselves be tossed?
With Guderian, Cyric is even more powerful!
It is impossible to say that it is impossible to deceive the elders in the defense army. Now, it depends on whether Guderian's retirement report can be approved, which shows the attitude of the other party.
Cyric knew that those old guys would definitely support him, and doing so would benefit both parties!
Now, the digging of the wall has come to an end temporarily, and Guderian has been fooled out. If Mussolini does not agree with his plan to rent Libya as a base, it will be a waste!
At the same time, Cyric of course also knew that when he went to visit Gustav, as a human being, Gustav would definitely tell everything above.
What will be the attitude above? Cyric was pretty sure, failed with no consequences, succeeded with great benefits, and they had no reason to refuse!
Moreover, almost no one now believes that they can make oil in Libya, right?
