"No matter what, this is the greatest support that the base camp can give us, especially the ability to form a corps-level force with a standing division as the main force. Although the Fourth Division is a little weaker in terms of fighting will, they are still The standing divisions still have combat effectiveness, it just depends on how we make good use of them. What's more, we still have the Sendai Division to support us, so nothing serious will happen." General Ueda Kenkichi said very calmly, after all, in this At that time, the Sendai Division, together with the Kumamoto Division, was recognized as the most powerful unit in the country.
Compared to the fierce Kumamoto, the Sendai Division is much better than them in terms of weapons and equipment - it is recognized that the quality of the Kumamoto Division's soldiers is good; but it is also recognized that their equipment is relatively poor.
All in all, with the Sendai Division stationed here, General Ueda Kenkichi felt much more at ease.
As for the Osaka Division with extremely low fighting will, Commander Ueda Kenkichi did not expect them to play a big role. He only hoped that they could go to the front line and fight the Soviet army, and that would be enough.
But what happened later shocked General Ueda Kenkichi - how could anyone fail to achieve such a small goal... This is the army...
After receiving such a firm reply from the base camp, the commander of the Kwantung Army, General Kenkichi Ueda, immediately began his journey of army building. Under his vigorous planning, the Sixth Army of the Kwantung Army began to gradually take shape.
At this time, Lieutenant General Ogisu Tatehei, who had been promoted from the position of commander of the 13th Division, finally took office with a smile on his face.
For General Ueda Kenkichi's support, Lieutenant General Ogisu Rihei was grateful and acted out of emotion - so he hurriedly started to take action. He was not generally active in dispatching troops and generals, fearing that his superiors would When needed, he was unable to meet the other party's requirements, thus failing his superior's support.
According to Lieutenant General Ogisu Tatehei's arrangement, on the position of the Halaha River, the non-standby division will be used as the first line of position, and then the standing division will be used as the reserve force to counterattack.
It has to be said that Ogisu Rihei's move is a bit like Tian Ji's horse racing in ancient China - he first uses the weak special reserve division to consume the Soviet army's vigor and strength, and then uses his own most elite standing army to As the main force, the division defeated the exhausted Soviet troops in one fell swoop.
This incident seemed to be a show of weakness by the Japanese army, but in fact, Lieutenant General Ogisu Rihei chose the strategy of showing weakness first and then counterattack-for the Kwantung Army, which had suffered a great loss of vitality, they were no longer able to carry out large-scale attacks. If we attack, we can only adopt this stupid method of adapting to local conditions.
After the soldiers and troops arrived, Lieutenant General Ogisu Tatehe breathed a sigh of relief: Finally, there was no longer such a big gap in strength with these Soviet troops.
Of course, in order to prevent all troops from being exposed to Soviet artillery fire and bombing, Lieutenant General Ogisu Rihei thought of a "good way", that is, the troops of the non-preparatory division would be stationed at the front first, and then As standing divisions, the Sendai Division and the Osaka Division are both stationed more than 200 kilometers away from Hylar, and the two divisions are in different locations. This is a good way to avoid the Soviet army being overwhelmed.
Sitting in the military camp in Hyrule City, Lieutenant General Ogisu Tatehei, the commander of the Sixth Army of the Kwantung Army, was listening to the situation report from the division commander Michutaro Komatsubara in front of him with a gloomy face.
"Since the last artillery battle, our army has been bombarded by Soviet troops on a large scale and suffered heavy losses, including our Kwantung Army's heavy artillery regiment, which was also completely wiped out by the Soviet artillery!" Michutaro Komatsubara had a cold sweat on his face. .
"It seems that the Nomenkan front line is more severe than imagined. We have encountered a cunning opponent, and we must be cautious in replacing it, otherwise our troops will suffer a heavier blow!" Ogisu Tate's face The gloom on the bed was almost dripping with water.
"Yes, sir. According to our experience in fighting the Soviet army, we know that their artillery fire is very fierce, even stronger than ours with all our strength!" Michutaro Komatsubara truthfully reported that he was not Zhukov's opponent, indeed There is nothing wrong with the fact that he was defeated.
"If this is the case, we must make adjustments to the frontline combat troops, especially the spacing between our positions. Otherwise, we will pay very heavy casualties!" Ogisu Tatebing's face was still very serious, giving people a sense of A very powerful feeling.
"I understand, I will implement it immediately!" Michutaro Komatsubara said in a deep voice.
"As long as you understand, this battle is very similar to the Russo-Japanese War that we fought when we were young. Unfortunately, we were still young at that time and could not participate in that war, but I believe,"
At this moment, a gentle-looking lieutenant colonel officer walked in from the door. He strode three meters in front of Ogisu Ribei, and then reported: "Report to your Excellency, Commander, our intelligence department intercepted the interception on the front line." An internal Soviet order, the translation has been completed, please read it! Complete!"
"Quick, bring it to me right away." Ogisu Rihei said eagerly, he hoped this would be good news.
"Hai!!" the lieutenant colonel responded, and then handed all the intelligence he intercepted and the translated text to Ogisu Tatehei.
The intercepted document said that it contained everything from protection against shelling to gas protection. The more Ogisu Rihei read, the more delighted he became: For him, this is not great news. Well, as soon as he came to the Soviet Union, he didn't want to fight, and he was promoted because of it.
If it were the Chinese army, Lieutenant General Ogisu Rihei must fight whenever he can and never show mercy. However, when facing the powerful Soviets, he just doesn't want to fight - after all, as long as there is no war, he will not If there is a defeat, just give him some time to buffer. After this period of time has passed, he will be transferred and continue to be promoted. And by then, the strength of their Kwantung Army will gradually recover, and they can continue to fight. , at least it won’t be like now, where it will fall into a disadvantaged situation in all aspects.
"Yo Xi, Mr. Inada, your intelligence agency has done a great job!" Ogisu Tatsuhi beamed with joy, "I will report it to the base camp later!"
"Thank you for your kindness, sir." Inada Nakazao lowered his head and said.
"Commander of the Komatsubara Division, you immediately dispatch troops to closely monitor the Soviet troops on the other side. You must report three times a day. That is, report in the morning, report in the afternoon, and report in the evening!" Maybe it's because he is in a better mood! For many reasons, the defeated general of the Soviet army, Komatsubara Michutaro, the division commander in front of Lieutenant General Ogisu Rihei, also looked much more pleasant.
After all, Komatsubara Michutaro climbed to this position step by step from the bottom. He naturally has a good grasp of the emotional changes of his superiors.
I saw Lieutenant General Michutaro Komatsubara immediately lowered his head and said: "I understand, I will implement it immediately! Commander, your military fortune will be long and prosperous!"
After saying that, Komatsubara Michutaro strode out of Ogisu Tatehei's office.
