    Having said that, it is still possible to build a raft to cross the river. Here, the cavalry captain Yonezawa Kogoro led his staff and adjutants to cross the Uda River on a temporary raft and came to the temporary camp of the Muto brigade.  The camp is on the sunny side of a dense forest only a few hundred meters away from the bank of the Uda River

    "Yonezawa-kun, thank you for your hard work! The 4th Cavalry Regiment performed very bravely. As the commander of the 23rd Infantry Brigade, I will report your meritorious service to the division headquarters! Why didn't your regiment's captain Yamashita  Come together?" In the temporary brigade headquarters tent, the brigade commander of the 23rd Infantry Brigade, Muto Nobuyoshi, held the hand of Colonel Yonezawa Kogoro.  

    "Muto-kun I'm really ashamed Although the 4th Regiment fought hard, they were unable to move the Lopan River Railway Bridge position guarded by the Germans. The troops suffered heavy casualties. In order to enable the main force of the Regiment to break through the railway line, Captain Yamashita  I personally led Lieutenant Ushijima's cavalry squadron as a suspect to lure the enemy south Now that we have lost contact, my regiment's logistics and engineers followed the remnants of the artillery brigade and feinted northwestward under the leadership of Major Shimizu. Here the regiment  The main force still has two brigades of troops, so I¡¯ll leave it to Mr. Muto to guide me in everything"

    Yonezawa Kogoro is a neutral faction in Oba's 3rd Division and generally does not participate in the competition between the Kikuchi Brigade and the Muto Brigade. His cavalry regiment has a relatively detached status in the division, but compared with the  As good as the relationship between Shinnosuke Kikuchi, Koji Hashimoto and King Tanaka Hat is, the relationship between Colonel Yonezawa Kogoro and Major General Muto Nobuyoshi is even more harmonious.

    Colonel Yonezawa Kogoro was born in the Yonezawa Domain.  

    As for Kikuchi Shinnosuke of Japan's 3rd Division, he came from the Mito Domain. At the end of the Tokugawa Period, he was one of the powerful feudal lords of the Tokugawa Gosan Family. In theory, he was the lord who was incompatible with the Satsuma and Choshu Domains, but the Gosan Family later  He also had to surrender to the power of the overthrown army and abandoned the last general Tokugawa Keiki

    Kikuchi Shinnosuke's arrogance in the 3rd Division was actually no less arrogant than Muto Nobuyoshi's. The reason was that he was born in the Mito Domain, known as the Three Imperial Clan.  The Yonezawa clan, who was born with Kogoro Yonezawa, is so small that it is not worth mentioning You must know that the clan of the Gosan family can use the name Tokugawa and has a place in the succession of the shogun.  Can small rural places like He and Yonezawa compare?

    The two artillery regiment captains of the Japanese 3rd Division, Hashimoto Koji and Tanaka Hatao, were born in the Satsuma Domain and the other in the Choshu Domain (Yamaguchi Prefecture), so these two masters did not like to see the cavalry regiment captain Yonezawa who came out.  Colonel, on the contrary, Muto Nobuyoshi, who was born in Saga, helped General Utsunomiya calm down. In the 3rd Division, he felt a bit sympathetic to the captain of Yonezawa Kogoro, who was promoted entirely on his own ability. The latest chapter of Shengxie.

    "The situation is very seriousChief of Staff, please tell me the current positions of the various ministries and the situation between ourselves and the enemy" Nobuyoshi Muto moved Yonezawa to his left, the brigade chief of staff, Colonel Takagi Yoshinari, and the captain of the 19th Infantry Regiment.  Jing Chen also greeted Colonel Yonezawa one after another, and Major Li Shang of the Chinese Armored 3rd Battalion saluted each other with Yonezawa without restraint. When it was not polite, Muto Nobuyoshi urged his chief of staff to start.  Military discussion and assessment.

    The one-fifth-thousandth military map obtained from Tsarist Russia was hung directly on the side of the tent. The inner circle participating in the meeting were the brigade commander Major General Muto Nobuyoshi and the cavalry captain Yonezawa.  Infantry Regiment Captain Tatsuya I, followed by Infantry Battalion Lieutenant Colonel Kohei Kashii and Major Jiro Tamon of the 7th Infantry Regiment of the Mutoh Brigade, and Major Mikiro Furuso of the 19th Infantry Regiment, in addition to two artillery battalion captains Oka  Major Saburo Benao and Major Toshishiro Obata, then Major Li Shang, commander of the Chinese Armored 3rd Battalion, and Major Wu Keren, commander of the Chinese Duli Artillery Battalion.

    As for the three captains of the Yonezawa Cavalry Regiment, Iida Sadagu, Nishio Hiszo and Koiso Kuniaki, they stayed on the other side of the Uda River to control the cavalry troops. They did not follow the regiment captain Yonezawa Kogoro to cross the river on a raft to join the army.  Negotiate assessment.

    "Gentlemen, as Mr. Muto said, although our roundabout troops have successfully reunited, the Uda River is annoying and distracting. Originally, it was planned that the Yonezawa Cavalry Regiment would attack the south bank of the Lopan River Bridge. We will attack the Lopan River.  On the north bank of the bridge, a north-south attack was carried out to capture the gateway and transportation hub to the south of Kharkiv. However, it was obvious that such a tactical goal failed to be achieved. The Yoneza United Army's three consecutive attacks on the west side of the railway were defeated by the Germans guarding the southern city and bridgehead positions.  The people fought backthe fourth time they just broke through and crossed the railway line to join us!"

    The chief of staff of the 23rd Infantry Brigade, Takagi Yoshinari, was holding a red and blue pencil in his hand. He was drawing on the map while explaining the current situation. Here, Colonel Yonezawa Kogoro put down a cup of hot water handed by his adjutant, and said with an old face  A reddish voice interrupted, "The combat effectiveness of the German Army cannot be underestimated. The key point is that the opponent's armored detachment's artillery fire and machine guns are quite fierce. My regimentThree consecutive attacks failed. After Captain Yamashita commanded a squadron to divert the main force of the armored detachment, the 4th Cavalry Regiment was able to cross the railway and get here!  "

    Colonel Yonezawa's words left a dark cloud lingering in the minds of the generals of the Muto brigade. Although the reality of the four years of the European War showed that traditional cavalry combat had given way to artillery, machine guns, trenches and fortifications, the 4th Japanese Cavalry  The firepower of the regiment was no worse than that of the Muto Brigade Infantry Regiment. It actually failed three times in a row. The casualties of the entire regiment were not light At least it is not false that Major Shimizu Yoshige's cavalry artillery brigade has basically lost its combat effectiveness.  Yes, and the cavalry squadron led by Captain Yamashita as a bait may also be in danger

    "Chief of Staff, please continue" Muto Nobuyoshi quietly asked Takagi Yoshinari to continue. This guy doesn't want his subordinates to be timid against the German army before they fight. Of course, the German army's combat style and combat effectiveness are definitely in Ukraine.  There is no doubt about this, but in any case, the single infantry method is used against long-range artillery. Now in terms of air superiority and ground artillery fire, the attacking coalition has the upper hand. Muto Nobuyoshi does not think that this battle will be impossible if it encounters the Germans.  French beat

    "The main force currently guarding the southern part of Kharkov is the 139th German Reserve Infantry Regiment. This is also the main force of the 47th Infantry Division commanded by German Major General von Neuhaus. However, after the battles last night and today, it is estimated that  The opponent still has 70% of its combat strength. According to our analysis, there are at least about 22,002,500 troops. On the left wing of Nancheng District is a regiment of the 1st Brigade of the 1st Division of Kharkov Volunteers of Ukraine. The right wing is ours.  Directly opposite is a regiment of the 3rd Brigade of the 2nd Kharkiv Volunteer Division" Takagi Yoshinari marked the opponent's troop deployment on the map.  (.)
