    The commander-in-chief of the coalition forces ended the day's working meeting on the mixed reorganization of the Central Front Army with these words. Of course, the next test will be quite severe for this 640,000-strong army. In order to maintain confidentiality as much as possible, the reorganization area of ??the Central Front Army of the coalition forces is limited to  On the Ufa Great Plain from Ufa to Samara, and a warning zone has been set up on the right bank of the Volga River, the entire Ufa Great Plain is based on the highway and the dense new military camps on both sides of the highway, and it has become a large and bustling military training ground.  .

    Of course, time is so tight. Although they took a train along the Trans-Siberian Railway to reach the Volga River, many Chinese and Japanese soldiers still suffered from slight jet lag. Fortunately, it was already the end of July.  The temperature on the Ufa Great Plains in early summer is quite comfortable, with the average temperature just over 20 degrees. In addition, with the return of Volga Federation residents, local fruits and vegetables have gradually begun to enrich the logistics supply of the coalition forces.

    After the training meeting, the division and brigade commanders and brigade commanders each took the time to return to the troop garrison and began to adjust the troop garrison based on the latest establishment table and designated camps. The coalition headquarters had already made plans.  And it was foreseen that the towns on both sides of the road from Ufa to Samara have become the garrison of various armies under the Central Front. Six infantry armies have gathered in towns near Samara, and four mechanized armies have gathered in the town of October.  On the line with Bafre, the remaining five mixed brigades are on the line from Ufa to Bafre.

    The 1st Cavalry Army was arranged to cross the river directly and prepare to be stationed on the Sezlan and Voronezh lines in order to respond to situations on the northern front at any time. Based on the information from the aerial reconnaissance of the Hawkeye early warning aircraft and the ground reconnaissance unit, Kolchak went south.  The main force continues to advance towards the Saransk line in the south. Obviously, the Soviet 1st Army and the Budyonny Cavalry Army there are still Kolchak's first choice targets, while the two sides are on the Cheboksary and Yadlin lines.  In a confrontation and stalemate.

    The Eastern Route Army of Kolchak's troops heading south continued to advance toward the flank of the Soviet 10th Army in the south, led by Kolchak's chief of staff Guillaume Nikolayevich Hastings.  If everything goes well, tonight the White Guard East Route Army, which is mainly infantry, will come into contact with the peripheral security forces of the Soviet 10th Army, and the head-on confrontation between the two sides is expected to start tomorrow!

    At 3 o'clock in the afternoon that day, Wang Geng convened the coalition chief of staff Jiang Hongyu, Volga Federation Prime Minister Pepe, the two new deputy chiefs of staff Jiang Fangzhen and Japan's General Tanaka Yoshiichi for a small meeting in the small conference room of the headquarters.  high-level military meeting.

    "Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, since the six mixed infantry armies of our Central Front are already at full strength, I think they will come in handy with two or three more days of rest and replenishment. Why not strengthen our troops in the Ukraine campaign?"  As for the strength of the army, judging from the situation between the enemy and ourselves and the preparations for the Ukrainian campaign just introduced by Chief of Staff Colonel Qian, His Excellency Utsunomiya¡¯s Southwest Front Army does not have an advantage in terms of strength! "

    Since General Tanaka has been the Deputy Chief of Staff of the Japanese Army Ministry for several years, and was selected and trained by Yamagata Aritomo and Terauchi Masaki as the successor of the Choshu Domain, he must of course be considered a general Japanese general. Although he does not expect Utsunomiya at this moment.  Taro's Southwest Front Army achieved a great victory, but one cannot unconscionably hope that the Southwest Front Army, dominated by Japan's 3rd Army, will fail, right?  After all, the three divisions of the 3rd Army are the main divisions of Japan. How can they be used by Utsunomiya in the Ukrainian campaign where we are outnumbered? Of course, if we can step on Utsunomiya without  It hurt the vitality of Japan's 3rd Army, so why not?

    Wang Geng smiled slightly when he heard this and did not answer. Instead, he took out a cigar and lit it. Jiang Fangzhen beside him said with a little hesitation, "General Tanaka, perhaps in the first stage of the Ukrainian campaign, the coalition's combat policy is to carry out limited-intensity operations.  The purpose of the attack was to inflict pain on the main German and Austrian forces stationed in Ukraine, so as to attract Ludendorff's attention to the Eastern Front. However, he was afraid that our strength would be exposed prematurely. When the time came, Ludendorff would be in a hurry to mobilize 100 troops.  If the master comes, we can¡¯t stop him!¡±

    "Let alone 100 divisions, we can't stop even 50 divisions. The Volga Federation was established less than a month ago, and our Eastern Front Allied Forces only fought the Battle of Ufa. Look at the two sides fighting 300,000 people against 25  Thousands of people, the intensity of the battle is actually very low. The Soviet Union lacks heavy artillery. As for us, we have an aviation fleet in the sky, artillery and armored vehicles on the ground. Even if we are infantry, our mortar and machine gun firepower is far superior to that of the Soviet Red Army. We can defeat the Ukrainians.  The Battle of France is not unusual at all, but it is a miracle that we cannot win it!" Jiang Hongyu, Chief of Staff of the Allied Forces, said what Wang Geng had warned Utsunomiya Taro and Wu Peifu in private.

    "But, Jiang Sang, isn't it because the Allies reopened the battlefield on Russia's Eastern Front that the United States, Britain and France are trying to get us to help bring the main German and Austrian forces back from the Western Front? Otherwise, why should we rush to launch the Ukrainian campaign? We will wait for them to wait for them on the Western Front  It¡¯s not too late to attack Ukraine until you are beaten to death!¡±

    Tanaka Yiichi narrowed his eyes and said naturally:?Obviously, in front of the King of China, the former Deputy Chief of Staff of the Japanese Ministry of War had no intention of hiding his feelings about the situation of the United States, Britain and France on the Western Front. For Japan, how to expand its living space and grow stronger  One's own strength is more important and valuable than pulling chestnuts from the fire for the Western powers. Of course, Japan's current status in the eyes of the Western powers is in great contrast to China.

    Wang Geng narrowed his eyes when he heard this. It was the first time that Tanaka Giichi met and he dared to say anything. He was not as reserved or tactful as Taro Utsunomiya. This General Tanaka had the aura of a young Japanese general. Damn,  In the previous life, wasn't Taro Utsunomiya the founder of the Kodo Sect, and the Tanaka Giichi in front of him was the head of the T¨­sei Sect? How could it be reversed now?  Could it be another butterfly effect?

    The commander-in-chief of the coalition forces looked at him smiling and smoking without saying anything. Tanaka Yiyi was a little confused. The guy turned his attention to Jiang Hongyu and Jiang Fangzhen. The new deputy chief of staff of the coalition forces, Jiang Fangzhen, hesitated for a moment and then said,

    "Sir Tanaka, I analyze that the foundation of our Eastern Front Allied Forces cannot be compared with that of the German and Austrian Allies, let alone the established powers of the United States, Britain, and France. The Sino-Japanese Alliance has only been established for a short period of time, and the economic and military strength of both countries has just begun.  There has only been some improvement, and the Volga Federation was established in less than a month.
