War of Resistance

Chapter 1312 Kwantung Army Sixth Army
The Japanese army far away in Hailar was indeed seriously injured, and was unable to launch a counterattack in a short period of time. This accelerated the establishment of the Sixth Army of the Kwantung Army to a certain extent.

After receiving the news of the disastrous defeat on the front line of Hailar, the General Staff Headquarters of the Japanese Army Base Camp immediately held an emergency meeting to discuss whether to fight or negotiate.

Just when the doves were slowly losing ground and the hawks were gaining the upper hand, a telegram from General Kenkichi Ueda, commander of the Kwantung Army, came.

"Generals, the Commander of the Kwantung Army, General Ueda Kenkichi, has an urgent call." A Japanese army commander knocked on the door and reported.

That's right, on this occasion, the senior commander who was so high-ranking on the battlefield of the invasion of China could only be a small messenger, responsible for reporting the latest situation to the higher-ranking generals.

Yes, the conference room at this time was full of high-ranking Japanese military officials at the general level, and the lowest rank among them was a major general, and this major general was able to come to this conference room for a meeting mainly because he had the honor of being in a confidential department.

"Read it!" one of the Japanese generals said.

"My colleagues and generals in the General Staff Headquarters of the base camp, the situation in Hailar is very serious now. The Soviet army has 15 soldiers along the banks of the Haraha River. Our army must win a huge victory to end this war, otherwise it will be at the negotiating table. On the other hand, our army will be at a complete disadvantage, which is very unfavorable. In order to solve the current disadvantages our army is facing, I propose to form an army-level combat unit with a standing division as the main combat force, and then select a Lieutenant General Lieutenant General Dizhou Libing, the commander of the No.13 Division, will be the commander of the army if there is no candidate. Ueda Kenkichi, Commander of the Kwantung Army Headquarters, sent an urgent message. The report is complete." Da Zuo read.

After hearing the telegram from General Kenkichi Ueda, the people present immediately talked about it.

Soon, a unanimous resolution was formed among the high-ranking generals of the Japanese army present-agreeing to the proposal of General Kenkichi Ueda, the commander of the Kwantung Army, to establish a military-level unit with the standing division as the main force and the non-reserve division as the backbone. Lieutenant General Dizhou Libing, the head of the No.13 Division, was urgently transferred to the post of commander of the military-level unit, and finally decided that the designation of the military-level unit was the Sixth Army of the Kwantung Army!

After the minutes of the meeting were formed, the telegram was quickly sent to the Kwantung Army Headquarters in Changchun.

"Report to Your Excellency, Commander, there is an urgent call from the base camp!" A Japanese lieutenant knocked on the door of Kenkichi Ueda's office.

"Quick, submit it right away!" Kenkichi Ueda sounded a little excited. If he didn't guess wrong, this suggestion would definitely be passed. After all, for him, this result was not unexpected.

"I would like to invite the commander of the Kwantung Army, General Ueda Kenkichi, to check it out. After a meeting of the General Staff Headquarters of the base camp, it was unanimously decided to establish the Sixth Army of the Kwantung Army. Lieutenant General Dizhou Libing, the commander of the No. One post, the Sixth Army of the Kwantung Army is a military-level unit, with the second and fourth divisions of the standing division as the main force, and the non-preparation division of the Kwantung Army is transferred as the backbone force to fight against the Soviet army on the front line of Hailar The Kwantung Army Headquarters is fully responsible for this matter. The General Staff Headquarters of the base camp urgently sends an urgent call! It's over!" the Zhongzuo officer read.

After hearing the news, General Ueda Kenkichi's old face showed a rare excitement—after all, the headquarters still did not give up on him Ueda Kenkichi, and still believed in his ability as always.

"Immediately execute the order. By the way, go and ask the chief of staff to come over. I have to discuss this matter with him." General Ueda Kenkichi said seriously, the excitement contained in his face was visible to the naked eye - after all, this is the In the past few days, he had heard one of the few good news.

In the eyes of General Ueda Kenkichi, now that he has the full support of the base camp, he will definitely win the battle - because from his experience, as long as it involves gambling on national fortunes or battles The Japanese seem to be blessed by "Amaterasu", and they have won decisive victories in many wars and battles that bet on the fortune of the country.

"Yes! Sir!!" The Japanese lieutenant officer responded, and hurried to carry out the command of His Excellency the Commander.

After walking back and forth a few steps in excited steps, General Kenkichi Ueda, commander of the Kwantung Army, finally waited for his chief of staff, Lieutenant General Rensuke Isoya.

"Congratulations, Commander. With the full support of our headquarters, I believe we will surely win the military victory in the Nomenkan area this time!" Lieutenant General Isoya Rensuke congratulated after entering the door.

"So, this recognition is indeed good news for us. But the next problems will follow. So we must be prepared and ready to deal with everything that happens next At this time, General Ueda Kenkichi had put on a very serious face.

Hearing this, Lieutenant General Isoya Rensuke immediately changed his serious face, and then promised: "I understand, please rest assured, General, we will definitely win this war!"

"Yoshi!" General Ueda Kenkichi stepped forward and patted Lieutenant General Isoya Rensuke on the shoulder.

In fact, this moment has come, and Lieutenant General Isoya Rensuke also understands that he and General Ueda Kenkichi have already been tied to the same boat—only if they win this war, will they not be forced to retire early, or even be forced to leave the army. into the reserve.

All in all, in this war, they must find a way to work together to win, otherwise their end will not be very good.

"Your Excellency, General, I must remind you that this fourth division is probably not a good one. As early as in the battle of Xuzhou, when the main force of the fifth theater of the Chinese Army was breaking through the gap in my encirclement, it was We encountered the Osaka Division head-on, but the Osaka Division at that time did not pursue and intercept our enemy troops, and even the battle did not take place, and their commander directly said that they did not receive combat orders from their superiors!" Obviously, in When talking about this incident, Lieutenant General Isoya Rensuke was not usually gnashing his teeth. After all, he was in the battle of Xuzhou at that time, but encountered a battle that could be called Waterloo.

Lieutenant General Rensuke Isoya, who was the head of the [-]th Division at the time, led a reinforced brigade, and went directly to Taierzhuang from Teng County in the north, but he never thought that he would bump into someone and turn his back on his back when he was in Taierzhuang-this The First World War can also be regarded as his personal shame, so when talking about the "pig teammate" of the Osaka Division, Isotani Rensuke is full of resentment...
