Although the Soviet assault was very violent this time and indeed knocked the Japanese army into a trap, in fact the fierce artillery attack did not destroy the Japanese command post in the first place.
That's right, it's the headquarters.
Although the Japanese military headquarters at this time had no backbone and could not command operations, this did not affect their ability to report the situation to higher authorities. Of course, the higher authority of the Kwantung Army Sixth Army Headquarters at this time must be the Kwantung Army. Headquarters...
After receiving the news from the front line, Ueda Kenkichi's face turned pale: he knew that his future was probably over.
"Baga, Baga! Damn the Soviets! What are they doing?!" General Ueda Kenkichi seemed to have been drained of all his strength and suddenly slumped down in his office chair.
Lieutenant General Isotani Rensuke, the chief of staff in front of him, looked at Ueda Kenkichi and knew that he could not let the general lose his fighting spirit. Otherwise, once the entire Kwantung Army lost its resistance, he, the chief of staff, would not be able to escape the blame.
Therefore, Lieutenant General Isotani Rensuke gritted his teeth and said: "Commander, you cannot lose your will to fight! We have not lost yet! We still have the ace-like Sendai Division in our hands, and the equipment is extremely well-equipped. The Osaka Division!!”
Of course, when talking about the Osaka Division, Isotani Rensuke still felt a little guilty, but he had no choice. Only by mentioning the benefits of the Osaka Division could he inspire General Ueda Kenkichi's fighting will, even if it was It's okay for the time being...
Sure enough, after hearing the words of Chief of Staff Rensuke Isotani, General Ueda Kenkichi's eyes immediately lit up. He slowly raised his head and said: "Yo West, Yo West. Chief of Staff Isotani is really the flower of the empire, speak up , the suggestion is really to the point, so be it! You immediately work out a combat plan with the warriors of the staff, and at the same time issue a war mobilization order for the Second Division and the Fourth Division. This is the best we can do in a hurry. Good way.”
Regarding this order from Commander Ueda Kenkichi, Isotani Rensuke breathed a sigh of relief. He also knew that only in this way could General Ueda Kenkichi regain his confidence and have a chance to fight against the Soviet army!
Yes, it’s a glimmer of hope!
As the chief of staff of the Kwantung Army, Isotani Rensuke cannot have a clear understanding of the strength of the Soviet army. It is precisely because of this that he has no hope that the Kwantung Army can defeat the Soviet-Mongolian coalition.
Although the odds of winning are slim, they still have to fight, otherwise the two of them will really commit suicide in a matter of minutes...
Soon, orders to go to the front line were issued from the Kwantung Army headquarters, directly to the division headquarters of the Second Division from Sendai and the Fourth Division from Osaka.
Perhaps it was because of the eye drops provided by Isoya Rensuke. According to the expectations of Commander Ueda Kenkichi, the merchant division of the Fourth Division should step forward no matter what at the critical moment of the Kwantung Army, right? Especially now, with the Hyrule frontline in such a situation.
Unexpectedly, the actual results were completely different from General Ueda Kenkichi's expectations.
Compared to the brave Sendai Division, which was actively preparing for war, the Osaka Division, composed of a group of traders, was unable to muster the will to fight at all.
The camera shifts to the military camp of the Fourth Division hundreds of kilometers away from Changchun.
"Oguri-kun, now the military department has asked our division to go to the front line to fight against the extremely scary Soviets. What do you think we should do about this matter?" A soldier sneaked up to another soldier, Shun Oguri. Erlang's side.
Oguri Shunjiro is the famous "wisdom star" of this team. He is very flexible and wise. It is precisely because of this that the soldiers next to him joined in.
Seeing that the soldier had approached Oguri Shunjiro to ask about the matter, the soldiers nearby also gathered around him.
The squad leader also discovered the situation here, and probably knew what these cowards were planning. Of course, the squad leader was also a native of Osaka, and like most of the soldiers, he did not want to go to the front line to fight, so He just twitched the corner of his mouth slightly, then pretended not to notice and passed by lightly.
I have to say that what this squad leader did was extremely correct. Once the squadron leader asked, he could only say, "I don't know what happened..."
"Gentlemen, the battle situation on the front line is already so fierce, especially when our opponents are so cruel. I think everyone doesn't want their jade to be shattered on the front line, right?" Shunjiro Oguri raised his eyebrows and said this furtively. talk.
"Yo Xi, what Mr. Oguri said is absolutely true. The Sixth Army is a military-level unit, and the tank division was beaten to pieces by Lao Maozi on the front line. How can we fight against such a devil?" Another one The Japanese soldiers spoke out.
"Yo Xi, we don't seek long-term military success, but we seek great protection. We must not fight with these evil old men." Another Japanese corporal spoke up.
All the Japanese soldiers looked at Shunjiro Oguri, the most resourceful one.
"Let's do this. I'm not feeling well. Let's all take action!" After saying that, Oguri Shunjiro resolutely headed in the direction of the military medical center, leaving only a lonely figure behind.
(PS: Yushen Daqie probably means taking care of yourself and staying healthy.)
Everyone suddenly realized that they were not feeling well, and then headed towards the military medical center.
The squad leader who was listening silently did not stop him because he was also going to have a stomachache.
…
Similar situations occurred in various regiments of the Fourth Division, as if the Fourth Division encountered an extremely terrible plague overnight...
This situation happened because of the worries of Lieutenant General Sawada Shigeru, who was the commander of the Fourth Division at the time.
As a rare "one-eyed dragon" among Japanese generals, Lieutenant General Sawada Shigeru has always been ambitious and wants to achieve outstanding results again. He also wants to move up.
Um, what does one-eyed dragon mean? Of course, there is only one eye left. When Sawada Shigeru was still an army colonel, one eyeball was removed due to glaucoma.
"Nani? These Osaka people are actually doing this at this time? They are usually very lively!" After listening to his subordinate's report, Sawada Shigeru was dumbfounded. He never thought that this would happen.
Sawada Shigeru was not from Osaka. He was born in Kochi Prefecture. Although he had heard of the "prestige" of the Fourth Division before taking office as the commander of the Fourth Division, he never thought that this group of Osaka merchants would be so famous. This is the way to do things.
"Yo Xi, division commander, you heard it right. The number of illnesses among our troops has surged, and it's even as if they were attacked by germ warfare. According to statistics, the number of sick people in the entire army has reached 100,000. Forty percent." A lieutenant general stood at attention and lowered his head.
"Hurry up and find a way to get these damn Osaka traders to take action! The orders from above are very strict. If we don't set off, I'm afraid all of us will commit seppuku in a matter of minutes!" Sawada Shigeru said very impatiently.
To be honest, even though Sawada Shigeru is so anxious now, he has nothing to do with these people. But don't forget, these soldiers of the Merchant Division all have a little money. Who will fight with you? If you can kill one, can you kill them all?
