All non-hub routes (FRA/MUC, possibly DUS) will be most certainly be affected. The new low cost carrier will absorb all of Germanwings, Eurowings and LH Berlin as it stands. EDIT: LH Cityline will remain seperate, as it operates out of FRA/MUC. Future of Augsburg Airways is unclear. Accross all LH Group companies the 70 seaters will be taken out of the fleet.
The total fleet size of new holding is said to be 90a/c.
Ex-Germanwings (+LH Berlin?!) will have fleet of A319/320, Eurowings will initially continue to operate under their own callsign (with their fleet of CR900). Edit ends.
If the yield is OK and holds up on LH's BHX routes I wouldn't think that the above combination of airlines would result in a route cull - possibly the name would change from LH to whatever they dream up now for their new baby.
