The generals of the Anglo-French allied forces during World War I were all Luthers according to Rock's standards. Don't look at the military works they wrote, which always contained the same principles, arts, and commands.
It's very high-level, but in fact, it only does one thing when it comes to the battlefield, and that's to pile up people's lives.
Rock knew nothing about the military before traveling through time. He had only been around the military forum for a few days, and his jargon was standard talk without any practical operation. However, with the little knowledge he learned in the forum, he has now become a recognized member of the British-French Allied Forces.
As a tactical expert, Rock didn't even expect this result.
During the Battle of the Dardanelles, Rock proposed the "leapfrog tactic". Now this tactic has become a classic example of the British and French forces. The Royal Military Academy Sandhurst has begun to study the "leapfrog tactic". Two years later,
If there are any achievements in this year, they must be included in the textbook.
The infantry-artillery coordination tactic that the Southern African Expeditionary Force is best at is familiar to even military experts in the 21st century, even those with a slight interest in military affairs. However, in 1915, this tactic had a resounding name: "Locke"
Tactics", the "Hutil Tactics" of another time and space will definitely not appear.
"Hutil Tactics" is also called Storm Tactics or Assault Group Tactics. The specific description is very complicated. In fact, it is infantry and artillery coordination and breakthrough penetration. It emphasizes the close cooperation between various arms. The combat method is similar to "Locke Tactics".
Compared with Roque, Manking's command method has no style, basically has nothing to do with art, and his technical content is not as good as that of a sheepdog herding sheep. Roque will definitely not give face to such a person.
Not to mention Mangin, when Joffre was the commander-in-chief of the French army, Roque didn't give him any face, so Mangin was nothing.
Compared with Mangin, who was looking for trouble, Robert Niweille was much smarter. Roque and Foch were sitting in the corner. Robert Niweille pretended not to see him and didn't move towards them at all.
A guy like Manjing, with a double-bottom IQ and EQ, took the initiative to send him to his door for sex. I don’t know what Xiafei and Robert Niweiler admired about this guy.
The purpose of Roque asking Manking if he has Indian ancestry is simple. If he doesn't have Indian ancestry, then Roque and Foch will complain about Indians. What are you worried about, Manking?
Manjing did not expect Luo Ke to break his armor when he came up. Senior generals still have to save some face. There are not many people like Luo Ke who break their faces when they come up.
Roque was looking for someone else to serve, such as Foch. Even though he was marginalized now, Roque knew that Foch would still rise, so Roque came to light the cold stove.
Forget about Manking and Robert Nivelle. They rose to fame at the right time. The result of a mismatch between Germany and Germany is short-lived. If Robert Nivelle can honestly be his commander-in-chief, he can keep a low profile.
If you make trouble, you may be able to serve as the commander-in-chief of the French army for a few more days. If you are unwilling to be lonely and insist on planning a battle to prove your non-existent abilities, you will only be humiliating yourself.
The crux of the problem is that Robert Niweille cannot keep a low profile, he is already on the verge of collapse, and the French government, which is holding on to its last breath, does not allow Robert Niweille to keep a low profile, so Robert Niweille must attack, so that
Only in this way can the collective fury of French society be satisfied.
"Lord Nyasaland, I respect the performance of your British Expeditionary Force on the battlefield-" Manking's face was full of gloom, and he was interrupted by Rock just as he started to speak.
"If you are in the mood to stir up trouble, why not think about how to defeat the Germans? The French land on the west bank of the Meuse River is still occupied by the Germans. If I were you, I would not be in the mood to attend a banquet here." Roque refused to give Man.
Jing said there was no chance to continue to expose Man Jing's scars.
If you have the ability, don't play tricks on me. Go to the Germans to show off your power. If you can play tricks on me, I will lose.
Some people are like this, a civil war between insiders and outsiders. At home, they want to imitate a crab and walk sideways. When they go out and meet the big brother from the mixed society next door, he is more honest than a little chicken.
"We will definitely drive the German troops away from our land -" Manking wanted to say harsh words, but no matter how he sounded, he lacked confidence.
"Then drive him away first." Roque didn't give Manjing a chance to speak.
Manking was going crazy with anger. If he hadn't taken into account that Roque was the commander-in-chief of the British Expeditionary Force, Count of Nyasaland, the conqueror of the Ottoman Empire, the liberator of the Kingdom of Belgium, the Minister of Defense and War of Southern Africa, Manking would definitely have gone crazy.
As for the pile of assets under Roque's name, Manjing doesn't care at all. It's good if ordinary people can do one thing well. People like Roque who are involved in various fields and can also do it well.
Not one in a million.
Not one in a billion...
Not one out of eleven...
Anyway, there is only one in the world.
This unpleasant incident in the corner of the banquet hall still attracted the attention of others.
There was no way, Man Jing was in full swing and was the focus of the celebration banquet.
Rock is the most handsome kid in the room. Even if he hides in a corner, he can't cover up Rock's dazzling aura as the protagonist. But Rock is not in the mood to communicate with others tonight, and everyone who wants to come over to say hello is stabbed.
Ke and An Qi stopped him, so Rock could hide in the corner and enjoy peace and quiet.
"Lord Nyasaland, it turns out you are here, this is not like you." Robert Niweile looked as if he had just seen Rock.
Rock beats Robert Nivelle's little brother mercilessly, and the real big brother finally shows up.
"General Nivele, congratulations -" Rock can be merciless to Manking, but he still has to maintain superficial courtesy towards Robert Nivele. After all, the British and French forces will continue to cooperate in the future. The British expedition alone
Army, Rock also did not have the confidence to defeat the Germans.
"Thank you. If you hadn't involved a large number of German troops on the Somme River, we wouldn't have been able to win the Battle of Verdun." Robert Nivelle was much smarter than Mangin, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to win the Battle of Verdun.
Win among competitors.
After Joffre resigned, there were many people who were qualified to serve as commander-in-chief of the French army. Pétain Robert Nivele-Foch, who performed outstandingly after the outbreak of the world war, was one of the candidates. Joffre's assistant De Castelao
It is also a candidate.
De Castelao had an aristocratic background and had deep ties to Catholicism. The Republican-dominated French government could not accept De Castelao becoming the commander-in-chief of the French army.
Pétain performed outstandingly in the early stages of the Battle of Verdun, turning the tide. He withstood the crazy German offensive in the early stages of the Battle of Verdun, and laid a solid foundation for the French counterattack in the later stages of the Battle of Verdun.
The problem was the disagreement between Pétain and Joffre, which led to Joffre's trust in Pétain gradually dwindling, so Joffre reused Robert Nivelle and Mangin to gradually replace Pétain. Then, because of the British Expeditionary Force in Belgium,
The counter-offensive, as well as the Russian Empire's victory in Galicia, effectively influenced Wolfenstein's support for Verdun, leading to Robert Niveller and Mangin's counter-offensive.
To put it bluntly, Pétain was the one who planted the tree. When it was about to bear fruit and was about to be harvested, Robert Nievelle and Mangin picked the peaches.
You can imagine how depressed Pétain was. He didn't even attend the celebration banquet held by the French government.
Of course, Pétain did not attend the celebration party because he was unwell.
The reason why Foch was excluded was similar to that of De Castelao. Foch was a Catholic and had a brother who was a Jesuit priest. During the time when Joffre was asked to step down from the altar, Foch did not break up with Joffre in time.
He was disqualified by the French government because of his lack of relations.
"What new plans do you have after the New Year?" Roque took the initiative. If the French army wants to attack, it will definitely need the cooperation of the British Expeditionary Force. Instead of waiting passively, it is better to actively participate from the early stages of campaign planning, which will give the British Expeditionary Force a more adequate
preparation time.
"Of course, we will launch a series of attacks on the German army in 1916, drive the German army out of French territory, and invade German territory, so that the Germans will feel the hurt and pain caused by the war. We will personally wash away Germany's
Through the humiliation imposed on us by the Franco-Prussian War, Alsace and Lorraine were taken back from the hands of the Germans. This time Alsace and Lorraine will belong to us forever, and no one can take Alsace and Lorraine from our hands again.
Sasse and Lorraine took it away." Robert Nievelle made an impassioned speech, winning rounds of applause from the surrounding audience.
Rock looked depressed. Robert Nivelle Barabara said so much, but there was no actual content at all. It was all chicken soup for the soul. But the audience around him still followed Robert Nivelle's tactics, even Foch was there.
Smiling and applauding, the frowning Rock was completely out of tune with the joy around him.
Well, after the ups and downs, Foch is also maturing. The word "mature" is a bit inappropriate to describe Foch, an old man who is over 60 years old, but for Foch, who became a general after the World War
For Xu, this is a completely new field.
"Lord Nyasaland, what are the plans of the British Expeditionary Force in 1916?" Robert Nivele poured enough chicken soup into the others, and finally remembered that Rock was still unfinished.
Just like Roque had to make a fool of himself, the 1915 campaign also proved that the French army could not do without the cooperation of the British Expeditionary Force. Without the series of attacks launched by the British Expeditionary Force on the Somme River, the French army would definitely not be able to withstand Verdun.
Due to the crazy offensive of the German army, there was no final counterattack by Robert Nivele and Mangin at the end of 1915.
Before the outbreak of the world war, there was only a pitiful little army of 250,000 people. No one expected that it would now become a decisive force that could determine the direction of the war.
"Of course the British Expeditionary Force will continue to attack, but we must also consider the German counterattack. The combination of Hindenburg and Ludendorff is a good opponent. We must use 100% of our strength to cope with it." Since Robert Niweiler.
It's cloudy and foggy, so don't expect to hear a word of truth from Roque's mouth.
Rock's meaning was very clear. It was impossible for Robert Nivele to use the British Expeditionary Force as a spearman. It was just a waste of time. Anyway, the war did not reach the British mainland.
