    "Your Excellency, General, please rest assured that all the officers and soldiers of the Third Division have their own sense of proportion. Since the beginning of singing the "Three Major-Nine Points of Attention to Discipline", the discipline of the imperial warriors has been constantly improving and improving. Although the Russian  We are still not singing smoothly, but Japan's military songs are already being sung very loudly. If the Third Division violates military discipline and loses the face of the Japanese Army, I, Oba Jiro, will commit seppuku.

    !  "Ting Erlang, the commander of the Third Division, proudly expressed his stance with his chest raised Text

    Shinnosuke Kikuchi and Nobuyoshi Muto were not so confident in their hearts. The Third Division was also called the Nagoya Division. The place where it was organized in Japan was Nagoya. The name Nagoya was the seat of the Aichi Prefecture¡¯s prefectural office. It used to be the castle town of Owari Tokugawa.  The place where Oda Nobunaga started his career during the Warring States Period. Because it is located between Kyoto and Tokyo, this ancient house is known as the Central Kyoto. Therefore, the combat effectiveness of the Nagoya Division is quite powerful. However, discipline is also a long-standing problem.  question.

    "Gentlemen, it doesn't matter if you lose the battle on the battlefield. Victory or defeat is a common thing for military officers. Of course, we must try our best to win, and we are confident that we will win. However, the military discipline of the coalition is a red line that no one can cross. Anyone who kills prisoners without authorization or harms the local area  Your mistakes are irreparable. I don¡¯t want you to be awarded a medal one moment and sent to the execution ground of the military police the next, so you can take care of yourself!" Utsunomiya Taro glared at Kikuchi and Muto.

    "Hai!"

    "yes!"

    Among the responses from the senior generals of the Southwest Front Army's Central Route Army in the combat conference room, a rare voice appeared. Colonel Lu Huanyan, the commander of the Chinese Armored Regiment, had a calm expression on his face, but he uttered "yes".  Obviously, the military discipline and the military song "Three Major - Nine Points of Attention to Discipline" shared by the Chinese Communist Party and the Allied Forces have been deeply rooted in the hearts of every Allied Forces soldier.

    "Your Excellency, Chief of Staff, what is the mission of my troops?" Stepin, the commander of the Voronezh Army Group here, was a little out of breath and couldn't help but raise his hand and asked.

    "Your Excellency, Lieutenant General, your troops will serve as the second-line troops, ready to take over the positions of the 5th Infantry Brigade of Mr. Kikuchi. According to our war game, one day later we will be supported by the air firepower of the aviation team.  Break through the Northern Donets River defense line deployed by the Ukrainians on the border north of Kharkiv. At that time, the 5th Infantry Brigade will penetrate to the southeast and leave the frontal area to your troops! "

    At Shunroku Hata's instruction, the two operational staff officers on the side of the map changed to an imaginary map after the first day of the battle. On the map, the defense lines of the two Ukrainian infantry divisions on the northern front no longer existed, marked by a blue arrow.  With the 5th Infantry Brigade, they inserted diagonally from the position occupied on the first day to the east of Kharkov, and the frontal attack position was replaced by the 13th Infantry Division of the Voronezh Group Army.  \\

    Before Stepin could speak, Muto Nobuyoshi, commander of the 23rd Infantry Brigade of the Third Division, couldn't help but said, "Major General Hata, why hasn't it been my 23rd Infantry Brigade's turn to go into battle the next day? The Ukrainians' second line  There are two infantry divisions and two volunteer divisions on the position. How can it be possible to break through with only Lieutenant General Stepin's 13th Infantry Division? We should switch to my brigade!"

    Stepin was not happy when he heard this. He scratched his neck and sneered,

    "Commander Muto Brigade, in terms of military rank, you are the Major General Brigade Commander, and I am the Lieutenant General Army Commander. In terms of troop strength, your 23rd Infantry Brigade has about the same number of people as my 13th Infantry Division. In terms of firepower, you only have 38 shots.  are more accurate than us, why do you dare to underestimate me, our 13th Infantry Division? Otherwise, how can we draw them out to compare, who wins and who goes to battle? This is the Volga Federation, and I remember that the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces has repeatedly emphasized that all members of the coalition are equal.  , there is no distinction between high and low!"

    It can be said that Stepin is a guy who has seen the market. Ever since he swore allegiance to the Volga Federation from the prisoner of war camp in Ufa, this guy has figured out that the entire Allied Forces are the Chinese king who dominates the sky with one hand. The troops of the Volga Federation and  There is absolutely no need for a general to be killed by a Japanese general. If there is a dispute, the Chinese king will help with matters rather than helping relatives. Although Stepin knows full well that in terms of individual soldier quality and weapon skills, especially artillery shooting,  In terms of technology, the three federal infantry divisions in Voronezh that he had just reorganized were by no means comparable to the veterans of the Japanese Third Division.

    However, despite the fact, Stepin never wanted his troops to be looked down upon. Even if he was a little weak, he still dared to hold his neck and refused to show weakness. In this way, Lieutenant General Stepin was in the eyes of his three infantry division commanders.  His image suddenly became taller. Look, this is a Russian man. How can you, a yellow-skinned Japanese with short legs and carrots, be able to scare him if he wants to?

    "You two, please be patient and listen to me!" Shunroku Hata frowned, feeling that he was so damn tired as the chief of staff today, how could there be sparks flying all the time??? appeared, the guy gritted his teeth and continued patiently,

    "Of course, all members of the coalition are equal, but the Third Division has been in existence for a long time, and Lord Stepin's Voronezh Army has only been established for less than ten days, and all aspects of combat effectiveness have not yet returned to a more ideal state. This  There is no doubt that differences exist. Of course, Muto-kun, the bravery and tenacity of federal soldiers are also well known. We must unite sincerely!"

    "You all sit down and listen to Shunroku Hata continue talking. If anyone keeps messing around, don't blame me for being rude. I will immediately remove you from office and put you in solitary confinement!" Utsunomiya Taro, the superior, frowned and shouted angrily.

    When the Commander-in-Chief of the Southwest Front Army and Japanese Army said this, Muto Brigade Commander had no choice but to sit down angrily. Over there, Stepin looked at his three division commanders as if he had won a battle triumphantly, and also sat down.

    "Gentlemen, assuming that we conquered the opponent's first line of trench positions on the first day, then the remaining troops of the two Ukrainian infantry divisions will retreat to their second line of defense, which is the ring defense line north of Kharkiv.  , at this time, we replaced the 13th Infantry Division of the Voronezh Group Army to be responsible for the frontal attack and containment of the opponent. The 5th Infantry Brigade, which was the leader the day before, quickly detoured to the east of Kharkov under the leadership of Major General Kikuchi.  ¡±

    Shunroku Hata pointed with his baton at the arrow pointing east of Kharkov, and then said, "The three surrounding defense lines to the west, north, and east of Kharkov belong to the infantry division of the Ukrainian Autonomous Government.  Defense, while the southeast, south and southwest are defended by German infantry divisions. Although one division defends three directions, we estimate that part of the opponent's reinforcements from three directions should have arrived by the next day at the latest."
