Chapter 378: Chapter 58: Defending Like General Rokossovsky (4K Mega Chapter)_3

The newly appointed Chief of General Staff answered, "We've already repelled the enemy's first offensive, but the Prussians will definitely not attack just once. By the way, the Coastal Fortress has reported being bombarded by artillery of unimaginable caliber, more powerful than the main guns of a battleship; we're not clear what it is."

Wang Zhong: "Railway guns, like the Leopold or the Karl-Gerät."

Admiral Chekhov: "It sounds like we can hold back the enemy this time."

Wang Zhong: "Yes, but the question is for how long."

General Gorky: "Like last year, we'll try to drag out time until the muddy conditions of October come, meanwhile luring the enemy deeper, and fight a decisive battle in our hinterland."

Admiral Chekhov: "Are you suggesting we don't resist?"

"No," General Gorky shook his head, "It's only April now, letting the enemy into the plains this early is a bad idea; we'll lose the war with the speed of rotting wood falling."

Admiral Chekhov nodded: "I see."
