Age of Rebirth

The night of April 300, [-] was destined to be an unusual day. In the vast land of the Far East, in the dark night, the three forces competing with each other were proceeding according to their own plans. The tense deployment, more than [-] million soldiers, will soon be thrown into a bloody fight on this unusual night.

General Zhukov, the commander of the Soviet Far East Front Army, held a meeting to deploy troops to evacuate. He felt lingering uneasiness in his heart, prompting him to order the Intelligence Department of the Front Army to send all reconnaissance troops within a range of [-] kilometers around the Far East battlefield. Outside, deploy a cordon.

In his subconscious mind, what needs to be guarded against is not Chen Bing's independent division of more than a million troops on the line from Chita to Irkutsk, but the Japanese, Tang Qiuli's troops, who make him suspicious. When I was entangled with the Kwantung Army, Dongjin joined the Far East battlefield. The reason is very simple, and it will not benefit him. Tang Qiuli's blood feud with the Japanese is as deep as the sea, and he will not act for the Japanese at this critical moment. .

But in his heart, Zhukov was not grateful to the Chinese. On the contrary, he was full of resentment. Being captured by Tang Qiuli in the first Outer Mongolian War was Zhukov's eternal pain. More than a million troops intercepted and killed the retreating Outer Xing'an Mountains Front Army and Lake Baikal Front Army along the way. Of course, it also included the Far East Front Army troops that were about to catch up,

To be precise, all Soviet troops are the target of the Chinese attack, as far away as the Outer Mongolia Front Army of General Vasilevsky, and as close as the Soviet troops in the Far East, and the independent division troops, suddenly Appearing on the only way for the troops to go to Europe, they distracted their energy to a large extent.Zhukov believes that Tang Qiuli's move is a typical speculative and speculative approach!

In the small town of Delun in the south of Outer Mongolia, Tang Qiuli, the commander of the Temporary Headquarters of the Independent Division, just sent a reply to Lieutenant General Liu Tiehan, the deputy commander of the East Pointing Force, the North China Field Corps, and the Niangziguan Garrison Corps in the Far East. Telegrams, which led to hundreds of thousands of landmines, were buried in the Soviet Waixinganling Front Army and Lake Baikal Front Army.On the only way to retreat westward to Europe, within a few days after that, these landmines caused more than 300 million Soviet soldiers to suffer.

In the city of Khabarovsk in the Far East.Prince Zairen, Chief of Staff of the Japanese Base Camp and Commander-in-Chief of the Far East Campaign, settled General Nanjiro, Commander-in-Chief of the Kwantung Army.A unit of the Kwantung Army.Putting everything into the attack on the Soviet Far East Front Army, he should have breathed a sigh of relief, but his heart was still nervous, the Kwantung Army was fine, at dawn.The offensive campaign is about to begin.

Next, it depends on whether the troops of the Far East Expeditionary Army and the North Korean Garrison troops, which are concealed and outflanked, can reach the designated location on time.And after the Kwantung Army's offensive began, it formed an encirclement trend against the Soviet Far East Front Army!

If the Soviet army cannot be encircled according to the predetermined plan, the Kwantung Army muster the last remaining courageous attack, which will not last for a few days. Under the counterattack of the Soviet army, the weak nature will soon be revealed, and that is the real truth. Tragedy, not to mention all the more than [-] soldiers of the Kwantung Army, it is still unable to wipe out the Soviet Far East Front Army. For the ambitious Prince Zairen, such a result is absolutely unacceptable!

Although the commanders of the two armies swore that they would not only arrive at the designated location on time and launch smoothly, but also that they could only advance and never delay, but Prince Zairen knew in his heart how difficult it was!

Even if you force the soldiers to run like hell with bayonets, how much time can you gain back?Therefore, Prince Zairen's heart was like a pot boiling. For a while, he was looking forward to Zhukov's troops being surrounded by his own three-way army and becoming a turtle in the urn. , It's all gone, the troops of the Far East Dispatch Army and the North Korean Resident Army are still running on the road exhausted.

Then, the Soviet Far East Front Army, after eating the blood of the soldiers of the Kwantung Army, swaggered to catch up with the other two Soviet troops. What can I do?

The ups and downs and uneasiness almost drove Prince Zairen crazy. He really wanted to get rid of this emotion, but he couldn't. As long as he closed his eyes, he would have these messy thoughts, " Bang!——Bang, bang!" The door of the office was knocked lightly again, this time, Prince Zairen was not angry, he very much hoped that some subordinates would come to report the situation, so that he could get out of this state, Get out for a while!

Moreover, from the way he knocked on the door, Prince Zairen could tell that it was the wise and scheming Major General Yamada, the new head of the General Staff Headquarters, "Is this Mr. Yamada? Please come in!" Prince Zairen said gently. Shouted, the tone was so gentle that Major General Yamada, who was outside the door, was slightly taken aback.

Major General Yamada opened the door and came in. Prince Zairen didn't wait for him to salute, and said: "Mr. Yamada came just in time. Anyway, there is nothing to do for the time being. What should we talk about by the way? Let the guards inform the chef and prepare some sake and authentic Japanese flavors." Small dishes, let's have a few drinks to pass the time before the big battle!"

According to normal understanding, to be able to chat with His Royal Highness, while drinking sake and eating Japanese-style side dishes, is not a direct confidant, without this treatment, what a privilege it is, and the smoke from the ancestral grave is nothing more than that, Yamada The major general is still not grateful?

Unexpectedly, Major General Yamada's face was very serious, and he said respectfully but seriously: "I'm sorry, Commander-in-Chief, the staff department has no time to drink with you. Just now, the confidential room of the staff headquarters received two urgent telegrams. Regarding the situation of the Far East Dispatched Army and the North Korean Resident Army!"

This guy Yamada is so fucking clever. He played hard to get, and he has reached the level of perfection and perfection. The two telegrams in his hand are exactly the news that Prince Zairen is looking forward to, as if he was looking forward to his mother. What's more, it's good news. Major General Yamada knew this clearly, so he put on a demeanor of being a typical Japanese imperialist, and unceremoniously declined the invitation of His Royal Highness to drink sake together.

Major General Yamada knew better in his heart that His Royal Highness not only would not blame him, but would also praise him greatly and continue to deepen his good impression of him. Sure enough, Prince Zairen's eyes were like hungry wolves when he heard the telegram that he was most worried about. , a green light came out, and asked eagerly regardless of his identity: "What's the content? Is it good news? Yamada-kun, read it to me right away!" He was even a little scared.I dare not read the telegram in person.

Major General Yamada smiled secretly, "What kind of general demeanor, what kind of royal demeanor, what kind of command is determined, bullshit! The current appearance of His Royal Highness is similar to that of the groom's official who entered the bridal chamber for the first time. It is at a loss!"

Major General Yamada felt that the fire was almost ready, unfolded one of the telegrams, and read: "Lieutenant General Norigoro Ono, Commander of the Far East Expeditionary Force, reported that in order to arrive on time and ahead of schedule, our headquarters designated a rendezvous location and used all mechanized vehicles to transport five A first-class division, with about 18 troops, and four heavy artillery regiments, set off early, and now, the troops have arrived in an area less than 150 kilometers away from the battlefield."

"There are another eight hours or so before the battle can be launched. The main force of our department can all arrive at the designated position before [-]:[-] pm on May [-], and start the battle according to the orders of the headquarters!"

"I want it! ——I want it! Great!" Prince Zairen rubbed his hands and applauded again, completely disregarding his demeanor, walking back and forth in the office as if possessed by a demon.

Major General Yamada saw it and kept his composure. After Prince Jae-in calmed down a bit, he took out a second telegram and read: "General Tanaka Shin, the commander of the North Korean army stationed in the army, reported that our department strictly enforces the general Your Excellency Commander's order, but because the road conditions are very bad, the marching speed of the troops has been greatly affected. Although we have tried everything possible, the overall marching speed has not been significantly improved!"

"What?—Shut up!" Prince Zairen yelled strangely, interrupting Major General Yamada's words. He was so excited that he felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured on his head. His eyes were rounded and his eyebrows were raised. After losing his temper, Major General Yamada continued: "Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, there are more below!"

"Phew!" Prince Zai Ren breathed out, a little bit annoyed, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, and looked at Major General Yamada, urging: "Don't read it quickly?" He couldn't blame this guy for playing tricks, after all, He interrupted himself.

"Although there are many practical difficulties, all the officers and men of our North Korean resident army overcame all difficulties and dispatched elite search troops to find shortcuts. His Majesty the Emperor blessed us and finally found a path that can save a day and a half. For this reason, I Already five hours ago, the eight first-class divisions with a force of about 28 people were ordered to advance lightly and take small paths to the scheduled assembly point."

"If there is no accident in the middle, the troops who take the shortcut can arrive at the designated location before 140:[-] noon on May [-]st and launch smoothly. At present, the vanguard of this department has reached an area less than [-] kilometers away from the Far East battlefield. I The main force of the army should continue to march according to the original route, and all of them can reach the designated position before [-]:[-] pm on May [-]nd and start the battle!"

Whoops, the dark clouds all over the sky dispersed all of a sudden, and the anxiety and worries of the past few days disappeared in an instant. Prince Zairen shouted excitedly: "We must go west! - We must go west! God's favor from Amaterasu , His Majesty’s blessing, and the great fortune of the Japanese Empire, so why worry about the Soviet army not being a soft-shelled turtle, and the day of complete victory in the Far East campaign can be expected!” He was so excited that he was a little incoherent.
