    Of course, for Japan, all this has long been a thing of the past with the signing of the Sino-Japanese Alliance Treaty. The smoke has drifted away in the wind. Due to the existence of the King of China and the new Chinese model army for participating in the war that he established with the assistance of the United States, China has transformed. In a short time,  In just one and a half years, it has become the most dazzling new force in the East of the world!

    All the unequal treaties imposed on China since the Treaty of Nerchinsk between China and Russia have been completely abolished. China and Japan, two countries with constant conflicts in modern history, have even concluded a comprehensive political, military and economic alliance.  China, which had been invaded and plundered by Eastern and Western powers since the Opium War between the Manchu and Qing dynasties, under the guidance of China's imperialist politics and strong military politics, and with the strong support of the United States, by 1918, in just over half a year, it had become the world's  The extremely important oriental pole in the extended family.  .

    As for Japan, it chose to join the Sino-Japanese Alliance. For many knowledgeable people in Japan, they feel that Japan has given up its mainland policy and the choice of restraining China. In the long run, Japan will lose any opportunity to confront and challenge China again.

    ¡°This view of the China-threat theory has attracted more people¡¯s opposition. The reason is very simple. Without China¡¯s cheap kerosene, would Tokyo¡¯s nights be as bright as it is now?  Without cheap rice from China, are the Japanese people going to have to eat high-priced grain from the United States?  Without Chinese oil, would the Imperial Navy's new ships still have the fuel to sail out of Tokyo Bay?

    Of course, there were also angry Japanese youth groups who demonstrated shirtless outside the gate of the Ministry of War, shouting, demanding that Japan withdraw from the Sino-Japanese alliance and demanding that the Imperial Army go to war with China!  What answered them was the high-pressure water hose of the fire truck. Even this fire truck modified from a Zhonghua Fudao multi-purpose vehicle was even imported from China!

    But there were also people on the roadside muttering, a bunch of idiots, the Chinese Army has become so powerful, unless they themselves cause chaos, the Imperial Army can only rely on others. If our army can challenge the Chinese Communist Party, the Ministry of War will agree to the cabinet to join the Chinese Army.  Is it the choice of the Japanese alliance?  !

    For Japan, in addition to the huge gains in opening up territory in Western Siberia after joining the Sino-Japanese Alliance, China has kept its promise and is only developing its army and air force at this stage and has not restored and developed its navy. This has given the navy the largest number in Asia.  The powerful Japanese government and opposition parties, as well as the Ministry of War and the Ministry of the Navy, gave some comfort. No matter how powerful the Chinese army was, it couldn't swim over to attack Japan, right?

    Of course, there are also so-called knowledgeable people who dismiss this concern. Damn, does China need to fight Japan? Japan has no resources except people, but it is people. The most important thing for China is people!  A bunch of idiots!  I don¡¯t even know what to think!

    In any case, Tanaka Giichi, a new Japanese army general born in Yamaguchi Prefecture, became the commander of the Japanese First Army with the support of Yamaguchi Aritomo as the direct successor of the Choshu clan.  With heads held high and high spirits, they led a group of division commanders and brigade commanders gathered together from Japan's First Army generals into the Samara Allied Forces Headquarters, a large and bright combat conference room like a small auditorium.

    While the Japanese Army was quarreling over the quota for the second batch of three divisions, the Chinese participating army was also vying for the quota for the second batch to fight on the Eastern Front. In the simplest way, originally  Nine brigades from the 12 new recruit supplementary brigades recruited and trained in June can be transferred directly to the Volga Federation from the Nanyuan Participating Army Base Camp in Beijing, but this is the same as Japan's previous transfer of one brigade from each of the six divisions.  It encountered unanimous opposition from the generals of the participating armies stationed in various provinces in the country.

    The earliest batch of division commanders in the participating armies have basically become governors of a province in the north. They may not care about taking another step forward, but how can the following mixed brigade commanders, who are senior members of the participating armies, do so?  If you agree to miss this opportunity, three new reorganized divisions are at least three opportunities to be promoted to lieutenant general and division commander. How about allowing those Nanyuan recruits to take the lead?  The Baoding Military Academy graduates who graduated in 1918 could at most become captains.

    ???????????? And those graduates of the Chinese Army University are extremely lucky if they become majors and lieutenant colonels. The opportunity to be promoted to major general brigade commander and lieutenant general division commander must of course take care of the mixed brigade commanders who are veterans of the war.

    According to the wishes of Wang Geng's chief of staff Jiang Hongyu, the 2nd Army of the Northern Federal Autonomous Region of China was directly transferred to the Volga Federation, and then a supplementary brigade was transferred from the reorganized divisions of the northern participating armies stationed in various provinces in the country to a veteran mixed brigade.  Add two additional brigades of new recruits to form a new integrated division, stationed in the Northern Federal Autonomous Region of China. Isn't this method of echelon replacement always the traditional method of participating armies?

    "But Wang Geng thought twice and rejected this seemingly logical approach. You must know that when the Allied Eastern Front Army was preparing to form an army at the end of May, ChinaWu Peifu's Third Group Army of the Northern Federal Autonomous Region has just been transferred. The 24th, 25th and 26th Divisions, composed of veterans of the mixed brigades from various provinces in the country, have been stationed in the Northern Federal Autonomous Region for just two months. From considering the stability of the newly added Chinese territory  From the perspective of the Northern Federal Autonomous Region of China, if the troops that have only been stationed and settled for two months are mobilized again, all the work carried out in the previous two months will be a waste.

    When the new troops are transferred to the Northern Federal Autonomous Region, they have to adapt and struggle again. This is obviously not conducive to the further formation of local stability and unity. It is of course inevitable that troops who are already familiar with the local environment and folk customs suddenly leave again.  It will have a negative impact on society and the people's psychology, and the arrival of new troops will have to be re-adjusted, which is not worth it.

    In fact, the reason why Japan's second wave of dispatched troops was to select and mobilize the 1st, 2nd, and 5th divisions of the First Army from home, instead of using the 4th, 6th, and 5th divisions originally stationed in Western Siberia as the second echelon.  The reason for the 9th Division is the same. After finally being stationed, the relationship with the local people has become better. If the defense is suddenly changed again, isn't it a fool's errand? If you want to make trouble, just transfer the domestic division to Ukraine to torment the local people.  Western Siberia is now the back garden of the Sino-Japanese alliance.

    Since the Allied Powers on the Eastern Front was only a temporary system during the European War, in fact, no matter what kind of group army the Chinese and Japanese troops were mixed into within the Allied Powers, theoretically the military establishment and management organization systems of the two countries would still be integrated.  exists, just as the Allied Southwest Front consists of three divisions of the Japanese Third Army plus three federal infantry groups and three Chinese ** armored regiments, but the strength of these three parts still exists within the armies of their respective countries.  .

    In the end, Wang Geng exchanged 6 veteran mixed brigades from the reorganized divisions of the participating armies stationed in the six provinces of Shandong, Zhili, Chahar, Rehe, Shanxi, and Henan with 6 new recruit supplementary brigades from Nanyuan Base Camp.  Together with Nanyuan's 3 new recruit supplementary brigades, the 27th, 28th and 29th divisions of the second batch of participating armies were formed to fight abroad. Each reorganized division still consisted of 3 mixed brigades, 1 division-affiliated heavy artillery regiment, and 1 division heavy artillery regiment.  One division belongs to an armored regiment and one engineer and baggage regiment.
