    Taro Utsunomiya is not slow in thinking. After all, he is considered a master in the Japanese military. Although he is 57 years old, he has been with the young commander-in-chief of the coalition forces Wang Geng for a long time. This guy is obviously more energetic than Wu Peifu.  He said whatever came to his mind, unlike Wu Peifu, who always seemed hesitant and hesitant when speaking in front of Wang Geng. He didn't know whether he was afraid that his ideas would be undermined in front of Wang Geng, or that he was afraid of making the young commander-in-chief feel that he was relying on his old age.

    "Who said we are still going to air attack the Ninth Army? The target of the second air attack in the afternoon was the main force of the Southern Group in Milna and Acehkovo, Tukhachevsky's team. According to the previous reconnaissance of Hawkeye 3,  There are only a dozen artillery companies left in the main force of the Southern Cluster, and the heavy machine gun battalions seem to be left to the Rzhevsky Cluster that is defending Chernigovka, so this time we are going to teach Tukhachevs a lesson.  base!"

    Wang Geng calmly told the truth about the second air raid.

    Utsunomiya Taro opposite was dumbfounded. After a long while, the guy murmured,

    "Sodisney, Your Excellency Commander-in-Chief, this plan of yours is really cunning. Tukhachevsky saw our fleet flying over his head in a swaggering manner in the morning and ignored him. He might have thought so this afternoon. Who could  Cheng Xiang¡¯s target for the afternoon¡¯s air raid was the ten main divisions of the Southern Cluster. What a wonderful idea! "

    The Japanese commander patted Wang Geng's feet without blushing at all. Wang Geng smiled slightly and said, "So this second time we flew over in the same swagger, and at the beginning we only carried out horizontal bombing, and after the bombs were dropped, we  Then shoot at the ground depending on the situation! Of course, it would be better if Tukhachevsky had left the position where he dug trenches for two days in a panic, as there was no cover in the wilderness.  Let¡¯s see how they defend themselves against the air!¡±

    "Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, won't our ground troops in Ufa be dispatched? Sun Liangcheng's troops have captured Samara, and then they will capture the ferry on the other side of Simbirsk. In this way, the Southern Group of my Soviet Eastern Front Army will  The main force will retreat westward after reuniting with the Fifth and Ninth Group Armies. Sun Liangcheng's troops only have 30,000 people. If the other side swarms with 200,000 people, the pressure will be too great!" Utsunomiya Taro said his own truth.

    "The Volga River is so vast. If we hold several major crossings, it will be difficult for the Southern Group and the Fifth and Ninth Group Armies to cross the river smoothly. Of course, it is a bit difficult to rely on Sun Liangcheng's 30,000 men alone, but we are in Almetyev  There are only 30,000 Xiong Shihui troops in Skok. If the opponent really wants to withdraw, it will be difficult for us to capture all 200,000 people at once. My main consideration now is which area to surround the opponent's main force of 200,000 people.  The army is the best!¡±

    Wang Geng walked to the large battle map hanging on the wall, holding his chin up and thinking. Utsunomiya Taro also walked over and looked at the mountains, rivers, roads and rivers on the map side by side with his commander-in-chief, silently thinking.

    "Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, if the Rzhevsky cluster lays down its arms and surrenders, we can send out the two Russian armies in Ufa and the three newly arrived Russian divisions. If these 100,000 troops encircle them from the east,  , we should be able to capture the main force of the Soviet Southern Cluster and the reinforcements of these two armies!" Utsunomiya Taro suggested.

    "The combat effectiveness of the First Army in Ufa is acceptable. The Second Army is mainly composed of the Ufa Volunteer Division. It is too early for the Russian recruit divisions transported from the east of the Ural Mountains to stand alone. When these troops win the battle, they have a good effect of waving flags and shouting.  Just like your Peasants and Soldiers Ashigaru during the Warring States Period, but if they engage in high-intensity forced marches and roundabout field battles, they may not be the opponents of the Soviet Red Army's Eastern Front, so I never want them to leave Ufa too far.  Fight and avoid giving the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of you!"

    Wang Geng expressed his concerns. The soldiers of the coalition must be trained, but they must also proceed step by step. The characteristics of the Soviet Red Army were actually similar to those of the White Guards at that time. They would charge forward bravely after winning battles, but when encountering setbacks, they would be easily defeated.  Sleepy.

    "But according to the current situation, unless the commander of the Soviet Red Army is crazy, he will definitely retreat instead of attacking. With all due respect, Commander-in-Chief, let the Russian troops of the coalition wait in Ufa for the possibility of them taking the bait.  The land from the right bank of the Volga River to Ufa is a vast plain area. If the Soviet Red Army really wants to run away, it will be really difficult for us to react slowly and catch up!" Utsunomiya Taro obviously thought that!  Russian troops from Ufa should be sent as quickly as possible to pursue the enemy.

    "The Fifth Army still has three divisions, the Ninth Army has at least five divisions left, plus the ten main divisions of the Southern Cluster. The opponent's nearly 200,000 people just want to escape, and Moscow has to force them to fight the coalition first.  In the battle, with the fall of Samara, the possibility that the opponent will continue to come east to end the war for Lezhevsky is of course very small. Their most likely possibility isRetreat to the northwest and capture Almetyevsk. I estimate that the opponent should have discovered Almetyevsk's Bear-style Terube by now!  "

    Wang Geng slowly drew a circle around the location of Almetyevsk, turned around and said to Taro Utsunomiya, "Now that they want to withdraw, the best way is to take the route taken by the Fifth Army's South Route Army when it was reinforced.  But Moscow will never agree to withdraw without a fight, so most likely, they will gather the main force to attack Almetyevsk, which has become our military depot and material transfer center. If their reconnaissance is effective. "

    "Send a report to Sun Liangcheng's department, asking them to quickly capture the ferry on the other side of Simbirsk. If they force the other party to withdraw, they can only use the Teqiushi and Bolgar lines!" Wang Geng turned to order the combat staff.

    "Shouldn't we capture Bolgar on the other side of Tetyush? Once this ferry is captured, the more than 200,000 Red Army troops of the Soviet Eastern Front on the right bank of the Volga River will be sacked! We can let Chistopo  Your Jiang Hongyu troops are here to complete this task! They are the closest to Bolgar, less than 120 kilometers away," Utsunomiya Taro suggested.

    "I always feel that the time has not come yet." The opportunity has not come yet. There is a saying in China, which is to eat one, take another, and look at the other. We are now eating and living in the Rzhevsky cluster, and we will soon take the southern cluster and the third one.  5. The Ninth Army is a big mess, but we still have to look at the remaining two divisions of the Eastern Front's Third Army and the Fifth Army on the other side of the Volga River. Instead of attacking the opponent on the left bank of the Volga River, it is better to set up an encirclement point.  To bring reinforcements, wouldn¡¯t Moscow just abandon the main force of the Eastern Front on the right bank of the Volga River?  "

    Wang Geng¡¯s unbridled thinking made Utsunomiya Taro take a breath of air, and he thought to himself, how could this young Chinese king be too cautious one moment, and then have such an appetite that he wanted to wipe out all the Russian Eastern Front in one battle?  Is Moscow so stupid that it will send a steady stream of troops to your door for you to deal with?

    "If Jiang Hongyu's troops don't seize the Bolgar Sealed Ferry, then should they go south to Almetyevsk and cooperate with Xiong Shihui's troops to fight? In this way, at least the more than 50,000 coalition troops in the north will not let the other side take advantage easily.  , If we only rely on 30,000 Xiong Shihui troops, if we cannot hold Almetyevsk, then we will not be able to evacuate the food, fuel and materials we have transported and hoarded! "

    Taro Utsunomiya, the deputy chief of staff of the coalition forces, is relatively conscientious and can provide timely advice. In Utsunomiya's view, even if the coalition forces send out the main force, there will be at least one-third of the Russian divisions, plus the attached Japanese troops.  The equipment and firepower of the Chinese army are much worse than those of the Chinese participating armies. In a real field battle with the Soviet Red Army, there is no problem at all with one against two. One against three can at least stabilize the front, but if 30,000 people are fighting in the field fortifications,  No one dares to say they can win against an attack by 200,000 people!
