    "Division Commander, I judge that when the enemy's reconnaissance company attacked the Levchenko Cavalry Battalion, they must not have had time to discover the location of the main force of our division. The enemy came along the west side of the road. If they knew the main force of our division,  The position is less than 1 kilometer east of the road. How dare they use a company to ambush our battalion? It's impossible! When our artillery fires, will the opponent's company be able to withstand it?  There are none left!" Chief of Staff Kravshenko said meaningfully.  //Updated fastest//

    "Even if what you say is right, what's the use now? They have arrested dozens of prisoners. Do you think the Allied forces can still interrogate the prisoners to find out whether we are the 1st Infantry Division and the 2nd Infantry Division here?"  The main force? Are you a fool to be the commander of the Allied Forces?" Division Commander Milevsky said angrily.  ",

    "Commander, you are right, the Allied forces are not stupid, but think about it, if the judgment of the former enemy headquarters is accurate, if the Japanese Southwest Front Commander Utsunomiya only sent a Japanese infantry regiment and a Chinese armored battalion  From the east road, we go along the forest road along the Kharkov River. Do you think that now that we know that we are the position of two main divisions, can the other side still run into us without any care?

    Their total strength is only about 6,000, which is almost half of our division. If our strength is calculated as two infantry divisions, it is four times that of the opponent. In terms of artillery, the opponent's infantry regiment adds up to only one artillery brigade.  With 8 75mm field guns, the Chinese armored forces are trying to strengthen an artillery battery. That adds up to only 14 guns. Our division has 12 1o5mm howitzers alone, plus 36 75mm Krupp field guns. We use  Are you afraid of the other party attacking?  ""See Beiyang1917701

    Division Chief of Staff Kravshenko was obviously trying to seduce his division commander. Milevsky heard this and said suspiciously, "Chief of Staff, according to your statement, is it the commander of the other side who is interrogating our captured prisoners? If he knows  If we have the main force of two infantry divisions waiting for them, the other side will not dare to come? Are we really that optimistic?

    Look at how a reconnaissance company can carry out ambushes and ambushes at the squad, platoon, and company levels over and over again. How good the firepower is. If the combat effectiveness of the Allied Powers is so strong, how do you know that the opponent only has one?  The infantry regiment doesn't dare to attack?  The Japanese infantry regiment must have more than 4,000 people, right?  If it is equivalent to the combat effectiveness of 400 Chinese reconnaissance companies, wouldn't it mean that even 400 battalions of us may not be their opponents?  "

    Division Chief of Staff Kravshenko was choked up when he heard this, spread his hands and said,

    "This is not how the account is settled, division commander. It is true that the opponent's reconnaissance company did well, but they are the elite of the Chinese armored forces. The Japanese Army did not have a chance to perform in the Battle of Ufa. The level of equipment  They are also very different from the Chinese participating armies. The 38 rifles in their hands are not the M1 Garand semi-automatic rifles in the hands of the Chinese Communist Party. The 38 rifles are more powerful than the Mauser 98 in our hands.  There's still a long way to go!

    What's more, our artillery has an absolute advantage. Let me say that the judgment of the enemy command headquarters in Kharkiv is correct. If our two main divisions hide in the forest and rely on their existing positions, they will not be able to stop the Japanese.  If there is only one infantry regiment, then our Ukrainian National Army will simply disband and overthrow it, and why will we defend Kharkov and Ukraine?  If you leave the forest and there are all the Allied Air Force planes overhead, the battle will be even more unwinnable!  "

    "Don't tell me, Kravshenko's words had a really good effect. At least they stabilized his teacher's mood. The guy went on to say,

    "Commander, haven't we already made a large number of vertical machine gun mounts? Although they are rough, they are effective. If we gather the MGO8 heavy machine guns equipped in each company, there will be hundreds of them. By the time  When combined with the use of anti-aircraft machine gun firepower, and the shelter of the huge canopy of the towering old trees in the forest, we may not be able to fight back at the bottom line of the coalition air force!

    Let me tell you, the Germans have been looking down on our Ukrainian troops for a day or two. Taking advantage of the favorable terrain, we should show off our skills and fight well. If we can deal with the infantry regiment that the Japanese are chasing, division commander, I am not exaggerating.  Yes, you must be the commander of the 1st Ukrainian Army. Hasn¡¯t the former enemy headquarters authorized you to personally command the 1st and 2nd Infantry Divisions?

    Even if we really want to retreat, we have to hold on until night, not to mention where should our division retreat?  If you leave the forest, you will be exposed to the eyes of the coalition reconnaissance planes. When the radio calls the air force, air strikes will follow one after another. No matter how fast our two-legged infantry is on the plains, we can't outrun the coalition planes in the sky, right?  "The words of Division Chief of Staff Kravshenko made Milevsky, commander of the 1st Ukrainian Infantry Division, very happy.

    "Chief of Staff! After your analysis, I really understand. We can't let Little Japan be chased all over the floor.Although the Chinese armored forces are powerful, this is a forest, thicket, and wetland. If the opponent's armored vehicle leaves the road and drives 200 meters, it will probably be difficult to move. And they don't have enough troops. The opponent can't send engineers to repair the road under our artillery fire, right?  However, what should we do if the enemy¡¯s air force launches an air attack?  The opponent's heavy bomber was Handley Petty O/4oo, and the heavy bomber was dropped by us. How could we block this crappy field fortification?  "Division commander Milevsky frowned again!

    "Division Commander, the terrain is favorable. First, the forest serves as a protective umbrella, covering and blocking the opponent's precision bombing as much as possible. The aircraft of the Allied Air Force cannot get into the forest to bomb and straf, right? Second, we have already rushed to control it.  There are enough vertical gun mounts. When the time comes, the mgo8 heavy machine gun will be mounted up, and the machine gun shooter will lie down on the ground. This will be a ready-made semi-finished anti-aircraft anti-aircraft machine gun!

    Besides, when the Japanese infantry wing catches up, the two sides will fight back and forth, and we will bite each other. With the enemy and ourselves crisscrossed, the Allied Air Force in the sky may not dare to drop bombs randomly.  We can even we can even give up part of the position, attract the opponent's ground troops in, and then cause the opponent's air force to accidentally bomb. In this way, I estimate that the air force of the Allied Powers will not dare to shoot randomly!  "

    Division Chief of Staff Kravshenko obviously took great pains to seriously think about how to convince his division commander!
