    Of course, in the early morning when the mist shrouded the city, the Ukrainians who defended the city did not rush out to fight rashly. The artillery of both sides obviously also stopped and hid in a position where the other side could not see it. The fierce artillery battle day and night obviously made the artillery commanders of both sides very satisfied.  It's a bit of a tactic. It's hard to say which tactic is better: pre-emptive or post-strike. Judging the situation and adapting to the situation is the best way to fight.  .  .

    After the fierce battle the night before, Lieutenant General Atari of the Japanese 3rd Division, who personally came to the front to command and supervise the operation, formulated a new combat plan. Specifically, the 6th Infantry Regiment of the Kikuchi Brigade and the Armored Infantry Regiment led by Ren Dao were  The 2nd Battalion was deployed on the right wing, with Voronezh's 13th Federal Infantry Division in the center, followed by Tanaka's 3rd Field Artillery Regiment and Hashimoto's Duli Field Heavy Artillery 3rd Regiment. Lu Huanyan led the 1st Battalion of the Armored Regiment and its affiliates.  The troops were on the left wing, and the 18th Infantry Regiment of Masago Eizaki also strengthened to the left wing the next day, forming a defense line to block and surround the north of Kharkov, and then launch an attack during the day tomorrow!

    In addition, Stepin's four artillery battalions from the 14th Infantry Division and the 15th Infantry Division will arrive at the front line by train the next morning and strengthen their left and right wing positions respectively. Lieutenant General Otani's first plan is to capture Kharkov  After attracting the enemy to attack, the second plan is to besiege Kharkov and wait for enemy reinforcements!

    The key to this plan is that the 23rd Infantry Brigade commanded by Nobuyoshi Muto strengthens a 3rd Armored Battalion and the newly upgraded duli artillery battalion of the Lu Huanyan Regiment, and crosses the river early this morning and detours back to the east of Kharkov City, preparing to encircle the city!

    Finally, Colonel Yonezawa's 4th Cavalry Regiment will also move to the southwest of Kharkov that day and surround the city. In this way, a three-sided attack will be formed. If the German reserve infantry division 47 comes from the south of Kharkov for reinforcements,  , then Colonel Yonezawa¡¯s 4th Cavalry Regiment uses mobile combat to delay the killing of the enemy and then let the enemy enter the city. If the main force of the 1st Ukrainian Army¡¯s 3rd and 4th Divisions comes from the forest east of Kharkov City, Muto¡¯s 23rd Infantry Division  The brigade will hold the enemy back

    After Datong¡¯s combat plan was reported to the Southwest Front Command and the Allied Forces Command in Samara, the Allied Forces Command in Samara approved Lieutenant General Datong¡¯s combat plan and only added the following deployments:

    The 14th Federal Infantry Division entered the battlefield in advance as a reserve force, but kept the information strictly confidential. The main force of the 15th Federal Infantry Division left one regiment to guard Voronezh, and the rest were all transferred to Belgorod on standby!  Huang Jingbo's air force frontline headquarters will make reasonable arrangements and dispatch, use the bomber group in an orderly manner, strengthen the ability to dispatch at night, improve the efficiency of air-ground coordination, and make every effort to provide air cover and support for the ground forces of the Central Route Army in the next few days.  , the ground troops who play the leading role cannot do without the air support of the aviation fleet.

    In fact, Nobuyoshi Muto is not optimistic about the posture of the two-pointed sheep and horse presented by the division chief. Standing in the two-pointed sheep and horse, the posture must be correct and balanced, the posture is correct, the center of gravity is distributed appropriately, loosely and steadily, in order to be able to achieve the goal of strength.  The ground rises, the waist and horse unite, and the requirement for exerting force is achieved.  This is the correct Wing Chun two-word clamping sheep and horse.

    What is hard for outsiders to believe is that the 54-year-old Japanese commander of the 3rd Division, Jiro Oba, is actually a rare fan of Chinese Wing Chun among Japanese military generals. Although Jiro Oba is almost a year younger than Liang Zan,  Wheel, but did not have the opportunity to be brothers with Liang Zan. The relationship between Oba Jiro and Wing Chun was when he attended the Japanese Army Junior School. It was still around 1880, and the Sino-Japanese War of 1898 would have to wait until 15 years later.  The 16-year-old Oba Jiro learned some basic skills of Wing Chun from a boxer who moved to Tokyo, Japan to open a boxing gym. Although compared to judo and kendo, Chinese kung fu does not have much market in Japan.

    However, many Hongmen people who held the purpose of resisting the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty often went to Japan to avoid being wanted and pursued by the Qing government. There were all kinds of people, including entertainers, students, and odd jobs. The unknown Chinese who taught Erlang Oba  The boxer returned to China soon after, but the superficial aspects of Wing Chun that Oba Erlang learned stayed with him for decades. In his spare time, he often used a two-point clamp to practice pile skills.

    Lieutenant General Oba shamelessly called the formation he set up in the north of Kharkov the "two-word clamp, sheep and horse", which means a stable position with both offense and defense. From the perspective of the attacking side, Major General Kikuchi  The 6th Infantry Regiment of the 5th Infantry Brigade, reinforced by the 2nd Chinese Armored Battalion, defended a 5-kilometer front line. The right wing was close to the Yudi River, a tributary of the Northern Donets River. This river actually originated from the north during the Tsarist Russia era.  An artificial canal was dug and repaired on the Donets River to provide clean water for the city of Kharkiv.

    On the left of the attacking coalition, the 18th Infantry Regiment of the 5th Infantry Brigade, which had caught up after being supplemented, reinforced the Chinese Armored 1st Battalion led by Lu Huanyan, guarding a five-kilometer front on the left, next to Halko on the left.  On the left bank of the Russian River, the de facto battlefield commander on this road is Colonel Lu Huanyan, commander of the 1st Duli Armored Regiment of China. The 18th Infantry Regiment of Masaki Masakaki defeated the 1st Ukrainian Infantry Division the day before.  Nearly half of them were killed or injured. Although an emergency warning was obtained,The infantry brigade and an artillery squadron are being supplemented, but it will take time to restore the original combat effectiveness.

    At the combat meeting at the former enemy headquarters, Oba Jiro called his left and right wings Wing Chun. The two knees in the sheep and horse stance were spread out into a pigeon-toed posture. This is actually quite vivid, because  The Yudi River and the Kharkov River are like a pigeon-toed, sandwiching the city of Kharkov in the south, and the middle road is the masterstroke of Oba Jiro's formation.

    Guarding the center is the 13th Federal Infantry Division of the Voronezh Group Army. One division, two brigades, and four regiments still retain a combat strength of more than 10,000 people even when the two 75mm field artillery battalions of the division artillery regiment were almost completely wiped out. Of course,  Now replacing the artillery of the 13th Federal Infantry Division is the 3rd Field Heavy Artillery Regiment and the 3rd Field Heavy Artillery Regiment of the Japanese 3rd Division!

    Da Ting called the heavy artillery unit of the 3rd Division in the middle the mainstay of the Wing Chun two-word pliers sheep and horse formation "butt!"

    Yes, it's the butt. At the battle meeting, Oba Jiro even took the trouble to explain that the name "Yangma" comes from the form of sheep fighting each other. When sheep fight, they use the horns on their heads to push each other forward.  The one who is pushed down will be counted as the loser. When they push each other forward, the shape of their hind legs is the posture of a two-pointed sheep-horse.
