    "Matsuki-kun, if you only send your 12th Cavalry Regiment and Colonel Zhao's Armored Regiment to take on the task of assaulting westward from Novoshakhtinsk, are you sure you can stop the enemy's counterattack? According to reconnaissance, the enemy is in Donton  There are three divisions in Netsk. Once we start fighting in Luhansk, the opponent is likely to send reinforcements and dispatches to the northeast! "

    Lieutenant General Shibagoro, the former enemy commander-in-chief of the Eastern Route Army and commander of the Japanese 12th Division, was obviously inspired by the heroic words of the two cavalry and armored generals. In addition, this new plan was originally insisted on by his chief of staff, Itagaki Osaka.  Yes, if you can really use the South Road Rangers to steal the opponent's retreat, it is certainly a good strategy. The key is that you can't let the enemy's counterattack slip away. When the time comes, you will lose your troops and lose your generals, but you will not be able to fight with the Southwest Front Army Headquarters and the Southwest Front Army Headquarters.  The king of China confessed.

    Cavalry Regiment Captain Matsuki Naoliang couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw that the Division Commander was moved. He kept puffing out his chest and said, "No problem, Your Excellency, Division Commander, leave the south to my 12th Cavalry Regiment and Colonel Zhao."  Armored regiment, we will cut straight in from Novoshakhtinsk like a hot knife cutting through butter. By then, we will not only take the enemy's retreat route in Luhansk, but we may also be able to capture Donetsk if we seize the opportunity.  !¡±

    "Turn down the pine wood. You think the Germans are so easy to fight against. It's not surprising that you can defeat the Ukrainian National Army. Although they have changed into German equipment, their training and battlefield experience are not even as good as the Soviet Red Army. But the Germans  It¡¯s definitely not that easy to deal with!¡± The one who spoke was the commander of the 12th Infantry Brigade, Morioka Morinari, who turned to Shibagoro unwillingly and said,

    "Your Excellency, Division Commander, please carefully consider the riskiness of such a strategy. This is our first time fighting the Germans, and there is definitely a gap between the cavalry unit's sustained combat capability and the main infantry brigade. When the time comes, Songmu and the others will be there.  If anything goes wrong in the south, it will affect the offensive of our entire Eastern Route Army. Please think twice, sir! Please!" Morioka stood at attention and bowed his head in a gesture of begging.

    "Your Excellency, Division Commander, Your Excellency, Chief of Staff, I, Naoki Matsuki, am willing to issue a military order. If I lose the battle on the southern front, I will commit seppuku and will never refuse!" Colonel Naoki Matsuki stood up not to be outdone, and stood at attention, biting.  Grind your teeth to fight.

    "Uh." Shibagoro looked at the two subordinates in front of him. He was undecided for a moment and felt a little confused. He turned to Chief of Staff Itagaki and said, "Itagaki-kun, only use one 12th Cavalry Regiment and 3rd Central Armored Regiment."  Will the troops be too thin when attacking on the southern front? Although the Ukrainian National Army has little training and experience, the German weapons in their hands are genuine, not to mention there is a division of German soldiers to escort them! "

    "Is this it? I'm still very optimistic about the strength of Commander Songmu and Zhao. Of course, what you said is also a problem. After all, we haven't gained experience in fighting the German infantry division! What's more, the other side also has an air force this time, and we have to worry about gaining air superiority.  We also have to go through a hard battle!" Itagaki Seishiro was obviously not as confident as he planned to revise the plan. In fact, in his opinion, the East Route Army had the heaviest task, but its strength was obviously insufficient.

    "Chief of Staff Itagaki, what do you mean? The split attack was a plan made by you and your staff. Now that the division commander is asking for your opinion, why are you so hesitant to say something happy? I, Naoryo Matsuki, put the words here.  The south is safe for me and Commander Zhao. If we can't defeat us, why don't we run away? The Germans and the Ukrainian puppet troops are both infantry, and Sayazi can't catch up!" Colonel Matsuki Naoryo, captain of the 12th Cavalry Regiment, was obviously a little anxious!  .

    In terms of qualifications, he is certainly older than Itagaki Seishiro. In terms of military rank, both of them are colonels, but in terms of position, he is the chief of staff of the Eastern Route Army above him. However, for a rising star like Itagaki, both parties jointly led the 12th Cavalry Regiment to follow Sun Liangcheng south.  During the detachment's thousands of miles of detours, the detachment formed a deep friendship as comrades, and the relationship was quite good at ordinary times, so Matsuki Naoliang started shouting a little anxiously at this moment.

    "Songmu, what nonsense are you talking about? Fortunately, you are still a member of the Imperial Army. If you can't defeat anything, you will run away. You will lose the face of the Allied Forces and the Imperial Army before the battle. If you think you can't defeat you, don't go into battle as soon as possible. Leave the opportunity to make a detour to the south.  My 24th Infantry Brigade is supported by Commander Zhao's armored fighting vehicles. Look at how I will deal with the Germans!" Nian Isomura, the commander of the 24th Infantry Brigade, couldn't help shouting.

    The former enemy commander-in-chief of the Eastern Route Army and the commander of the Japanese 12th Division, Shibagoro's inquiring eyes remained on the face of Chief of Staff Seishiro Itagaki. The dispute between Major General Isomura and Colonel Matsuki did not concern the division at all.  In the eyes of His Excellency.

    Itagaki thought about it in his mind and was about to speak when Lieutenant General Egorov, commander of the Tsaritsyn Group Army of the Volga Federation, spoke again.

    "Your Excellency, Division Commander, Chief of Staff Itagaki, I think the Eastern Route Army has the heaviest and most complex tasks in the Ukrainian campaign. If we still have to divide the troops into two,We really don¡¯t have enough troops on the front line. I don¡¯t think we need to compare with other Central Route Army and West Route Army. It seems that they have kept two infantry divisions in reserve, so we must also keep two infantry divisions in reserve.  I suggest that the 18th Infantry Division of Ust should be left to garrison Tsaritsyn, while Inza's 16th Infantry Division and Kikweize's 17th Infantry Division should be used in two directions respectively!  "

    Yegorov could see that both Colonel Itagaki and Lieutenant General Shibagoro seemed to have some scruples in the formation and use of troops. He guessed that it was because they were the same division. If the first lines of the West Route Army and the Center Route Army were only  If one federal infantry division was used, Itagaki and Shibagoro's Eastern Route Army would be a little embarrassed if they used two federal infantry divisions. It seemed that they were timid or lacked confidence, so they stood up to give them a step down.

    Itagaki took a deep look at Yegorov, and was grateful to this guy for knowing how to read people's words and see the reason for his hesitation, so he went down the ramp along the ladder,

    "Your Excellency Lieutenant General's suggestion makes sense. Your Excellency, Division Commander, I suggest you accept Lieutenant General Yegorov's suggestion. In addition to sending the 16th Federal Infantry Division led by Major General Inza to the northern front to participate in the war, on the southern front, you can  Use the 17th Federal Infantry Division led by Major General Kikweize as the second echelon to follow the main force of Colonel Matsuki and Colonel Zhao to protect their flanks and rear. This way, even if the main force of the three enemy divisions in Donetsk comes out,  , The position of the South Route Army cannot be shaken at once!"
