Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Outside the borders of western and northwestern Manchuria, three independent division field corps were deployed in three offensive positions. More than one million independent division troops were eyeing Manchuria. In the eyes of Prince Zairen, the situation in Manchuria was quite tense.  .

    Tang Qiuli's campaign deployment was unabashed and all intentions were obvious. Only in this way did Prince Zai Ren feel even more aggrieved. He knew what his opponent was going to do, but you had to follow the opponent's rhythm. The Kwantung Army  The situation faced was such that the already stretched troops had to be divided into three areas.

    Zai Ren even knew that General Nanjiro's request was reasonable and correct. The only way to restore the Kwantung Army's disadvantage in Manchuria was to increase its troop strength. However, it would be extremely difficult to mobilize troops from the Far East to reinforce Manchuria.  unable.

    General Nanjiro was worried about the three independent divisions. In addition to being worried about the situation in Manchuria, Prince Zairen was also worried about the situation in the Far East. Similarly, Liu Tiehan's East Command troops were approaching the Far East, with more than 700,000 troops.  The mighty march must not be hidden from the eyes of the Japanese agents. On Prince Zai Ren's desk, there is a piece of intelligence, which was just sent back by the agents of the Intelligence Headquarters of the Far East Campaign Headquarters.

    "Headquarters, the Third Intelligence Group's reconnaissance has learned that the Northeastern Advance Command troops under Tang Qiuli's command, approximately 700,000 troops, are all heading to the Far East with the intention of competing with our Imperial Japanese Army for control of the Far East.  Quan, the commander of the East Command of the Independent Division, Liu Tiehan, who is currently the deputy commander of the independent division, has the rank of Army Lieutenant General. This man is one of the most senior officers in the independent division! "

    For this Lieutenant General Liu Tiehan.  Prince Zai Ren is naturally no stranger, including the Kwantung Army Intelligence Department.  The Imperial Army's high-level intelligence agency, the information about this person could probably fill a room. When the China Devil moved to fight in the Indochina Peninsula and the Indian mainland, this person took charge of all the military power of the independent division in the northern region. He was the Tang Dynasty.  One of the top-ranked warriors under Qiu Li's command, he is also the second-ranked figure in the independent division.

    The East Point Troops under his command.  They are well-equipped, strong and well-trained, and most of them are Manchurian soldiers. "Another tough general, a tough opponent, with more than 700,000 troops, it's a lot of pressure!" After reading the intelligence, Zai  Prince Ren's first reaction was to sigh.

    The independent division refers to an army of more than 700,000 people in the east.  They have already pounced towards the Far East, making it clear that they are planning a big fight. Under such circumstances, how can they divide their troops from the Far East?  Therefore, Nanjiro's request is just an unfulfilled wish!

    Facing the pressure of the army from the East Point.  Prince Zai Ren would never dare to divert troops from the Far East to reinforce the Kwantung Army in Manchuria. However, Manchuria was the foundation of the Japanese Empire and could not be lost.  What Nanjiro said makes perfect sense.  The suggestion to concentrate the Far East Expeditionary Force and the Kwantung Army and stick to Manchuria is absolutely correct. As for the differences between the two sides, it is just a matter of looking at the problem from different perspectives. Prince Zain will not deliberately create difficulties for the Eastern Army because of this.

    Therefore, the strength of the imperial army in Manchuria must be increased to a level that is sufficient to compete with the independent division's offensive troops!  This was Prince Zain's decision after careful consideration. However, he encountered the same problem as Nanjiro, where to mobilize troops?

    The mainland tried its best to replenish the strength of the Kwantung Army, but it was obviously too late. If Nanjiro was given more than half a year, with that guy's ability, the Kwantung Army would definitely recover its full strength, and there would be no more suffering!

    The Far East Expeditionary Force, with more than 600,000 troops, all returned to Manchuria. This suffering was solved immediately. However, Nanjiro was a good man in the military, but he did not understand politics. He did not understand what the Far East meant to him now.  The importance is to not only disappoint the emperor, but also to silence local hostile factions. The Far East must be occupied.

    Therefore, we must have a head-on decisive battle with the East Command of the Independent Division in the Far East to completely control the Far East. At this most critical moment, how can the Far East dispatched troops divide their forces to reinforce the Kwantung Army? The importance of the Far East to ourselves, politics  The significance is greater than military significance!

    How to solve the current difficult situation of the Kwantung Army has become a difficult problem for Prince Zairen. He has also thought of transferring troops from the Korean garrison to reinforce Manchuria. However, after the Korean garrison was severely cut off by himself, it still could not be solved.  There are not many troops left, and the three thousand miles of land on the Korean peninsula also need to be guarded by the imperial army. Moreover, if the idea of ??garrisoning the Korean army is again attempted, the old guy Koichi Minai will definitely risk his life not to come forward.

    One word: "Difficult!" The problem of insufficient troops almost worried Prince Zai Ren to death. The only thing he could do was to use his position as chief of general staff to put pressure on the relevant departments of the base camp and order them to move the troops as quickly as possible.  The local reserve troops are replenished to the Kwantung Army. There is no other way.

    The East Point troops of the Independent Division, which are heading straight towards the Far East, are on the western and northwestern frontiers of Manchuria.On the front line, the three field regiments of the Independent Division, which were eyeing him with eager eyes, became two huge rocks weighing on Prince Zai Ren's heart, making him unable to breathe!

    His reply to General Nanjiro was also full of bitterness, "Nanji-kun, I have received your call, and I want to inform you of an important situation. According to the reconnaissance of the Far East Expeditionary Force Intelligence Department, we learned that the Deputy Commander of the Independent Division  Liu Tiehan is commanding more than 700,000 troops of the East Command to attack the Far East. I believe that the war in the Far East will rekindle in the near future, and the war will be unprecedentedly fierce! "

    "The Far East is also an important area related to the fate of the empire and must not fall into the hands of the China devil. Therefore, Nancijun's request for reinforcements cannot be met. For the current plan, I can only order the mainland to speed up the replenishment of the Kwantung Army's troops.  At this time, the situation in Manchuria is extremely dangerous, and war is about to break out. At this critical moment, I believe that Mr. Nanci¡¯s military command will not disappoint me, and there will be a proper way to deal with it!"

    "According to my judgment, judging from the deployment of the Chinese devil Tang Qiuli, the outbreak of the war in the Far East and the outbreak of the war in Manchuria will not be too far apart. By then, I am afraid that I will have no time to take into account the war situation in Manchuria. I will grant Nanci according to the situation.  You have corresponding command authority and independently command all the imperial troops in Manchuria!"

    After reading Prince Zai Ren's reply, General Nanjiro no longer even smiled bitterly. Prince Zai Ren's meaning could not be clearer. Not only were there no reinforcements, but even after the independent division troops attacked Manchuria, don't expect them.  At that time, reinforcements were mobilized from the Far East. At that time, there was also a war in the Far East. Six hundred thousand versus seven hundred thousand. The capital was not enough in the first place. I was in a hurry myself and couldn't take care of you. Let's each do our own thing!

    As for granting independent command rights, it is almost like an empty talk, even more disgusting than an empty talk. The imperial army has these in Manchuria. It is originally the command scope of the Kwantung Army Headquarters. Is it an empty favor?  What a waste of authorization!  General Nanjiro was speechless.

    General Nanjiro gave up all thoughts of getting reinforcements and focused on how to deal with the independent three-way troops. He transferred some well-trained veterans from local police forces across Manchuria and added that various units of the Kwantung Army,  But this was far from enough. In desperation, General Nanjiro, as the chief of staff of Manchukuo, issued an order to mobilize the troops of the five armies of Manchukuo, break up the organization, and combine them with the Kwantung Army in regiments.  together.

    After patchwork, General Nanjiro finally added more than 280,000 troops to the Kwantung Army. However, General Nanjiro himself knew that the overall combat effectiveness of the Kwantung Army had dropped by nearly one-third, especially  Those troops that supplemented the Manchurian soldiers have even dropped by one-half. At the critical moment, only Amaterasu knows whether the Manchurian soldiers who have been incorporated into the Kwantung Army's combat order can withstand it?

    The Manchukuo soldiers of the five armies simply did not dare to put them in the same direction. That would be a road to death. Without real imperial soldiers to monitor them, I am afraid that as soon as the gunshots were fired, these Manchukuo troops would collapse thousands of miles away.  Running so far that you can't even see Yingra?

    Therefore, the defense forces in the western Manchuria direction, the troops in the western Liaoning area, and the northeastern border garrison have all supplemented the Manchuria soldiers in varying numbers. Although many division commanders are full of reluctance to supplement the Manchurian soldiers, General Nanjiro  A few words stopped everyone's mouths, "Facing the huge threat from the independent divisions, the empire's supplementary troops are far from enough. This is a temporary measure. If necessary, we can order the Manchukuo troops to  The first line consumes the attacking enemy forces, and the imperial army can monitor on the second line!"

    The Manchukuo soldiers were not good at fighting, but they could still serve as cannon fodder. The division commanders of the Kwantung Army accepted this reality uncomfortably. Perhaps out of self-comfort, they added Manchurian soldiers to the Kwantung Army.  They all put on the uniforms of the Kwantung Army. If they didn't speak, no one would be able to tell the truth from the lies. Of course, they would be able to tell the difference immediately once they arrive on the battlefield.

    Under the strict supervision of General Nanjiro, the Third Army of the Kwantung Army and the four attached brigades completed the defensive deployment of the Western Manchuria area in the shortest possible time. Of course, it was hasty, but this was already the commander of the Third Army.  Lieutenant General Kuroyama, the official and commander of the Western Manchurian Defense Forces, did the best he could and did what he had to do. General Nanjiro waited in fear for the attack of the independent division!

    Information about the Kwantung Army's deployment of a large number of troops in Western Manchuria soon reached Tang Qiuli's hands, and the effect was even better than expected. "Yuan Jinghao, you are attractive enough. You asked Nanjiro to come up with four  A division and four brigades are here to defend you!" Tang Qiuli said to Yuan Jinghao jokingly.

    Yuan Jinghao was not in a joking mood. Although the strength of the Kwantung Army defending Western Manchuria was roughly the same as that of the North China Field Corps, Yuan Jinghao still did not take it seriously. What he felt aggrieved was that the North China Field Corps had completed the mission a few days ago.  In order to deploy the campaign, thisHe could launch an attack before the Kwantung Army took the defensive step and catch the little Japanese off guard. However, the division commander repeatedly delayed the launch of the attack!
