(d) To make a bid for a general peace. (e) To continue the Battle of the Atlantic. (f) To resume the bombing of Britain. III. THE SPRING OF 1942. 12. At the opening of the new campaigning season Germany must press on into Trans-Caucasia and will probably resume offensive operations on the Northern and Central fronts unless she has broken the Russian Army. 13.
