Age of Rebirth

Chapter 2167

The current Prince Zairen absolutely has the confidence to say this. Zhukov’s three arms stretched out were all interrupted, and the passage leading to the line from Chita to Irkutsk was completely blocked. Moreover, the Soviet Far East The three group armies of the Front Army suffered heavy losses, with losses of more than four-fifths of their troops. It can be said that the Far East Dispatched Army and the North Korean Garrison troops eliminated Zhukov's more than 20 troops as soon as they took action.

Now, the Far East Expedition Army and the North Korean Garrison troops are joining forces to press on the Far East battlefield. I have ordered the Kwantung Army troops, as well as the troops on the two wings of the Brea Mountains and the Kukan Mountains, to stop attacking, consolidate the existing positions, and prevent the Soviet army from attacking. Breaking through from other directions, when the Far East Dispatched Army and the North Korean Garrison troops arrive, the remaining troops of the Soviet Far East Front Army will be compressed in a small area with a radius of only a few hundred square kilometers.

Therefore, Prince Zairen was in a very happy mood at the moment. After sending the telegram to Emperor Hirohito, he was still unsatisfied. He felt that the first telegram was too simple and dry, so he immediately took out one. On the letter paper, I buried my head in writing again, "Brother Emperor, after more than a month of planning for this Far East campaign, finally at this moment, we see the dawn of victory. I am here, happy for the Great Japanese Empire and Brother Emperor!"

"The entire Soviet Far Eastern Front was annihilated, and the military strength of the Soviet Union in the Far East disappeared. The troops of the Soviet Outer Xing'an Mountain Front and the Baikal Front Army are still stranded on the line from Chita to Irkutsk, and there is no return to Zhukov's troops. The signs and the reason are, on the one hand, of course, that the Chinese demon Tang Qiuli used conspiracy and tricks, and on the other hand, the reason is that the Soviet army was eager to return to the European battlefield. In other words, Stalin did not order the two Soviet troops to come back to help!"

"However, I believe that the two Soviet armies on the line from Chita to Irkutsk have not moved westward for a long time. The plan for the Empire's Far East campaign is always an unpredictable factor. Therefore, my idea is to proceed as soon as possible. The general attack on the Soviet Far East Front Army is delayed, and accidents may happen. Although the preparations for the Far East Campaign are not very sufficient, they are sure to win. In addition, the Soviet Army in the Far East no longer exists. The troops in the region. It will be the next big problem for the imperial army of the Japanese Empire, and I will plan as soon as possible the battle plan against the Chinese devil army!"

From the secret telegram sent by Prince Zaihito to Emperor Hirohito, it can be seen that Prince Zaihito's military talent and the general attack to encircle the Soviet Far East Front Army have not yet begun.Zairen was thinking about how to deal with the independent division. Tang Qiuli commented, "Zairen will be our formidable enemy to regain the Northeast!" This statement is quite reasonable.

In the headquarters of the Soviet Far East Front Army, there was a gloomy cloud. When Zhukov saw the No. 15, 21, and [-] Army commanders evacuated from the first echelon, these three blood-stained and embarrassed subordinates calmed down a little. , neither rebuked them in rage.He didn't lose his temper, but just said lightly, "It's good to come back! In that case, no one can recover. Take a rest. Hurry up and reorganize the troops. The three of you will be combined into the army directly under the headquarters of the front army. Leave it to me to command!"

The three army commanders, with shame on their faces, staggered away after saluting without saying a word. They thanked the comrade commander for his generosity, but they didn't know that Zhukov's inner pain and Nai at the moment, went out three The group army has a strength of nearly 35 troops. In a few days, only more than 6 soldiers returned. The three group armies were reduced into one army, with nearly 30 soldiers, just like that.

After repeated fierce battles, the total strength of the Far East Army has dropped from more than 130 million to less than 90, while the strength of the Japanese army, including the Kwantung Army that has been fighting against it, has increased to more than 140. Ten thousand, almost double the strength of the Far East Front Army. [

Breaking through is impossible. Ever since the three armies of the first echelon encountered the superior Japanese army in their respective directions, Zhukov understood this. The supreme commander of the Japanese army in the Far East made up his mind to eat himself Therefore, Zhukov ordered the troops belonging to the Front Army to switch to defense on the spot.

On the swampy plain between the Brea Mountains and the Kukan Mountains in the Far East, which was still warm and cold, hundreds of thousands of Soviet soldiers, exhausted and numb from long-term battles, melted a layer during the day, and reappeared at night. On the ground that is as hard as steel, it is difficult to dig fortifications and traffic trenches, and build bunkers and shelters.

From offense to defense, for the Soviet Far East Front Army, it not only changed hands on the battlefield, but also meant that he had fallen into the heavy siege of the Japanese army. There was no need to worry about internal food and grass for the time being, and foreign rescuers were still ambiguous. For a while, Zhukov knew this better. Defensive warfare in such a battlefield background is not easy to fight, and it is related to many factors such as the morale of the troops and the will of the soldiers to fight.

Moreover, Zhukov still had a trace of uncontrollable fear in his heart. It had been two or three days since he sent an urgent telegram to the General Staff and Comrade Stalin, but he had not received a reply yet. What he feared was that, Comrade Stalin, don't consider ordering the Outer Xing'an Mountains Front Army and Lake Baikal Front Army to return to aid. If this is the case, the final outcome of the Far East Front Army will be annihilated. The Japanese will not let go of such a great opportunity!

On May [-], in Khabarovsk, at the headquarters of the Japanese Far East Campaign, Prince Zairen presided over a military meeting attended by senior officers above the level of brigade commanders and regiments. Deployment, hundreds of senior officers above the rank of major general of the Japanese army rushed to Khabarovsk from various battlefields with murderous intent and excitement. rushed to the Far East battlefield.

The conference room is magnificently decorated, with a large portrait of Emperor Hirohito hanging in the middle, and Prince Zaihito’s seat is just below the portrait of Emperor Hirohito in the middle, with two eye-catching plaster flags on the back, and a red circle in the middle, Like a biscuit soaked in blood, the Emperor Hirohito in the portrait, with a sparse mustache and slender eyes with a look of arrogance, is looking at the hundreds of people below The star of the famous general was shining, sitting upright, and the arrogance on his face was no less than that of the emperor's officers.

These Japanese officers with command knives are all his loyal thugs who dominate Asia and the world, and they are a group of murderous bloodthirsty demons, especially the officers from the Japanese Far East Dispatched Army and the North Korean Garrison. , more than [-] Soviet prisoners of war were slaughtered with guns and knives. At this moment, the meeting has not officially started. These executioners, whose hands are stained with blood, are exchanging ideas with each other excitedly.

Among this group of senior Japanese officers, I saw Lieutenant General Haruhiko Taichi, Commander of the Third Army of the Far East Expedition Army, and Lieutenant General Mio Kikuchi, Commander of the First Army. There was a lieutenant general division head of the North Korean garrison, so the two lieutenant generals, who were not thinking about it, carried on with their eyes burning before the meeting started.

This kind of arrangement is purely logical, and the idea came from the handwriting of Lieutenant General Tatsuaki Shinno, the chief of staff of the Far East Campaign Command. With the help of this military conference, Lieutenant General Xinye finally got rid of the smell of gunpowder and blood, which stimulated The Far East battlefield, where the forehead was so painful, returned to the campaign headquarters and left for many days, but it felt a little strange.

Lieutenant General Xinye's freshness hadn't passed yet, when he heard rumors that the new head of the General Staff, Major General Yamada, intended to seek power and usurp the throne. The news was reported quietly by his confidantes. General Nonaka was eager to do something to show his existence, and he was also warning that guy Yamada, he had better be honest!

His reason was that from the date of the establishment of the General Command of the Far East Campaign, all the imperial army troops in the Far East were a family, and they were all troops of His Royal Highness Prince Zairen. There was no Kwantung Army, Korean Garrison, etc. Divided, in order to break the previous method of arranging seats in the same unit as the unit in the military meeting, completely disrupted, and made a cross arrangement, so that it can better reflect the intention of His Royal Highness Prince Zairen's subordinates .

In this regard, Prince Zairen did not explicitly express his disapproval, nor did he pay too much attention to it. If there are more important things to worry about, then he still has time to take care of such trivial matters. Let this guy Xin Ye make troubles. , Besides, this suggestion is quite in line with my own mind, isn't it? They are all my subordinates, so there is no clear distinction between them.

Major General Yamada, the head of the General Staff Headquarters, saw through Lieutenant General Xinye's tricks at a glance, and adopted a cold-eyed attitude. Of course, on the surface, he maintained absolute respect for Chief of Staff Xinye, and he did everything without leaking anything "Fault", this made me suffocate, stared wide-eyed, wishing to hold a magnifying glass and find Major General Yamada, who was "faulty", disappointed, and felt awkward like a tiger eating the sky!

There was nothing wrong with arranging the meeting seats in this way. They were all generals of the Empire of Japan, serving His Majesty the Emperor, killing people for the sake of the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere, and fighting under the unified command of His Royal Highness Prince Zain. All the same, even the generals of the Kwantung Army, who had little communication with other Japanese troops and were relatively closed and self-contained, didn't feel that there was anything wrong with it. On the contrary, they had the opportunity to get to know other imperial troops.

Therefore, the Japanese military officers who participated in the military meeting, no matter whether they knew each other before or not, chatted very enthusiastically. This is also in line with the original intention of Chief of Staff Shinno, to break the boundaries of various troops, and everyone is in harmony. However, after all calculations, something happened. ! [
