    In order to keep it secret or avoid disturbing the people, the coalition headquarters carried out the mixed face change work of the coalition's Central Front on the Ufa Plain, which is relatively less densely populated. In theory, this is the land of the Bashkir Autonomous Republic under the jurisdiction of the Volga Federation.  , starting from the first large military base established west of the Ural Mountains by the coalition forces north of Ufa, along the Ufa-Samara highway that was widened and renovated by the road-building civilian army under the control of the coalition logistics, there are dotted  Garrison barracks sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.  .

    Temporary military camps have been built near more than a dozen towns along the highway from Ufa, Mirna, Tuimazi, October Town, Bafre, Bugulima to Samara, and hundreds of thousands of coalition troops  The influx made the Ufa Plain lively again after being deserted for a few days.

    As early as 2 months ago on June 1, 1918, before the Allied Eastern Front was established in Omsk, the capital of Western Siberia, the entire Chinese Model Army had been expanded to 26 infantry divisions plus one armored division. The total number of the entire army  Reached 810,000 people.  In addition, there are 6,000 aviation personnel, including 2,000 all-weather pilots, 6,000 ground staff, and more than 500 aircraft of various types.

    Later, when the coalition was established, Wang Geng only mobilized three reorganized divisions of Wu Peifu's Third Army and Sun Liangcheng's armored division to participate in the formation of the first phase of the coalition. The original Chita, Nerchinsk and Ulan of the Third Army were  The defense areas of the three military divisions of Udeh were handed over to the newly formed 24th Division, 25th Division and 26th Division as reserve garrison. In fact, the three newly formed divisions were  They are veterans, Commander Bai Chongxi of the 24th Division, Commander Sun Lianzhong of the 25th Division, and Commander Liu Ruming of the 26th Division!

    Throughout June and July, with the brilliant performance of the Allied Eastern Front Allied Forces in the Battle of Ufa, there continued to be an upsurge of patriotic young people in China and Japan joining the army to serve the motherland. The number of newly recruited supplementary brigades in China reached  There are as many as 12, and 2 reserve divisions have been established in Japan.

    When the news that the Allied Forces Command decided to continue to reinforce three Chinese reorganized divisions and three Japanese divisions from home to the Eastern Front battlefield of the Volga Federation spread within the two countries, both the participating army divisions in China and Japan  All the various A-level divisions are fighting for these places.

    Zhang Weixi, Xiong Shihui, Sun Liangcheng, and Li Mingzhong were all transformed from major generals and brigade commanders into lieutenant generals and division commanders in a blink of an eye. They opened up countless territories for the Sino-Japanese alliance and defeated the old Soviet Union.  , and in Japan, Shunroku Hata, Seishiro Itagaki, especially the 29-year-old Kanji Ishihara, Shunroku Hata, who graduated from the 22nd batch of the Mainland University as the chief graduate, jumped three levels and was promoted to major general at the age of 39!  A 33-year-old Itagaki Seishiro in the 28th period of the Mainland University jumped two levels in half a year and was promoted to Army Colonel!

    What's more, the current graduates of the 30th class of Mainland University who were supposed to graduate in the fall were not only seconded to the Allied Forces Command in advance, but were promoted from major to colonel in three months, creating a new world in Japan.  The fastest promotion rate for mainland graduates in the history of the Army!

    The heroic performance of these three young Japanese samurai and the opportunities they seized almost drove all the Japanese soldiers still in the country crazy. The envy, jealousy and hatred were absolutely unavoidable. Therefore, the second wave of opportunities to leave the country to join the Allied Eastern Front Allied Forces were eliminated.  Japan's young and middle-aged generals regarded this as the best opportunity to leap over the dragon's gate. Everyone began to inquire about which three divisions would be dispatched to the Allied Forces on the Eastern Front, and then began to work hard to find ways to mobilize those who were the last.  It is possible to join the selected division, even if it is used at a lower level!

    ??Nima, what does it mean to be downgraded in Japan?  If you join the Allied Forces on the Eastern Front and defeat Germany and Austria in one fell swoop, you should at least jump to level 2 or 3, right?  Most of the young and middle-aged generals in Japan think so.

    The threshold of the Japanese Army Minister Uehara Yusaku and Prime Minister Masaichi Terauchi's family was crossed by the division commanders and the big capitalists of the imperial family and relatives they asked to intercede. Gifts were not necessary, the key was favors, coercion, inducement and beauty.  All imaginable tricks were sent to the War Department and the Prime Minister's Office.

    Especially those parents whose children join the army. With the examples of Shunroku Hata, Seishiro Itagaki and Kanji Ishihara, everyone wants to take a shortcut. If they can find a job in the coalition army, they can fight with the king of China without causing trouble.  Heart, after three or two battles, we are all meritorious officials. There are rumors that if you get a first-class meritorious service and get a gold medal of victory from the Volga Federation, you don¡¯t have to go back to your country and you can be promoted to three levels in a row in the west.  , this requires at least ten years of hard work!  How could you miss this opportunity?

    In this way, after a lot of dealings in front and behind the scenes in Japan, it was finally decided that the second batch of three divisions to be dispatched to the Allied Forces on the Eastern Front were as follows:

    1. The Japanese First Division formerly stationed in TokyoLieutenant General Kawai Cao

    2. Army Lieutenant General Kawachi Reiz¨­, commander of the Japanese Second Division formerly stationed in Sendai

    3. Lieutenant General Masataro Fukuda, former commander of the Japanese Fifth Division stationed in Hiroshima

    ??It can be said that the Japanese Army Ministry and the Cabinet argued for a long time, but in the end, they decided to dispatch the remaining three of the first seven Class A divisions established by the Japanese Army based on seniority!  If we add the Third Division and the Seventh Division that participated in the Allied Powers' Eastern Front Coalition in the first period, there are already five veteran-level Class A divisions dispatched to participate in the Allied Powers' Eastern Front Coalition. However, the Japanese of these three divisions  The generals privately said that they had finally become the ace troops under the leadership of the King of China.

    Originally, according to the mixed plan of the Allied Forces Command, someone within the Japanese Army Ministry proposed to allocate one brigade from each of the six divisions to be sent to the Allied Forces to participate in the war. As a result, the division commanders did not agree. If the battle was to be fought in units of brigades, then the divisions would  Where are the group leaders?  Did the six division commanders abandon their troops and each take a brigade to the Volga Federation for vacation?  The division commander in Japan is a lieutenant general. There is basically no chance of being promoted to general for seven or eight years. However, these division commanders are all in their early fifties. If they become generals in China, they will be close to the age when they become official and enter the reserve force.  How can anyone afford to wait!

    July 28, 1918 13:00 Samara Allied Forces Headquarters Operations Conference Room

    Japan had been arguing with the Ministry of War for a long time, and they came to the conclusion that the second batch of troops sent to the Eastern Front of the Allied Powers to participate in the war must be the elite of the existing Imperial Army. The plan to draw brigades from various A divisions was in  The battle ended in vain due to the firm opposition of the division commanders. In the end, the Japanese 1st Division of Lieutenant General Soko Kawai, the 2nd Division of Lieutenant General Reizo Kawachi and the 5th Division of Lieutenant General Masataro Fukuda were selected to participate in the war.
