Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The general battle deployment was arranged in place, and then came the specific combat tasks of each army. This part contained a lot of content. It took nearly an hour. The battle plan formulated by Prince Zai Ren was very detailed and even specific.  It is stipulated that the distance a certain unit of that battle cluster needs to advance in one day, as well as when to occupy that important location, the distance between adjacent units on the left and right, etc., are all clearly stated in the campaign plan.

    It can be seen that for this decisive battle, Prince Zain took great pains to kill the Far Eastern Front in one fell swoop and exhausted a lot of brain cells. After Major General Yamada, head of the staff headquarters of the Far Eastern Campaign Headquarters, read out the order,  The venue fell silent, and the Japanese generals were all thinking about their respective tasks.

    Prince Zai Ren glanced at the faces of the generals, nodded with satisfaction, and said: "Gentlemen, the battle plan has been determined. All the troops will do is execute it according to the orders of the headquarters. This will be a battle."  This is a decisive battle recorded in the history of the Japanese Empire¡¯s overseas conquests. I hope you will make immortal contributions to the Japanese Empire and His Majesty the Emperor during this battle!¡±

    All the Japanese generals thought that this was the concluding remarks of His Highness the Prince, and they immediately clapped vigorously. The thunderous applause almost broke through the roof. After the applause subsided, Prince Zai Ren's face showed  The solemn expressions made all the Japanese generals feel nervous and confused.

    Prince Zairen said slowly: "Gentlemen, what Chief Yamada just announced was only the specific deployment of the Far East battlefield. However, I remind you not to forget that the enemies of the Far Eastern Imperial Army are not just Zhukov's Far Eastern Front troops.  There are also the troops of the Chinese devil Tang Qiuli, as well as the Soviet Trans-Xing'anling Front and the Lake Baikal Front that are still lingering on the line from Chita to Irkutsk. We will suffer losses if we ignore these two groups of enemies!"

    Prince Zai Ren¡¯s words were like a wake-up call, suddenly waking up the Japanese generals who were immersed in encircling and annihilating the Soviet Far East Front and were about to win a great victory. They could not help but cast admiring eyes on His Highness the Prince.  With the Far East Imperial Army about to win a great victory, who else has such a clear mind as His Highness the Prince?

    Prince Zai Ren smiled slightly and accepted these glances naturally. In fact, it was in his heart.  The two Soviet front troops blocked by the Independent Division troops on the line from Chita to Irkutsk were indeed his worry. As long as one of the front troops turned back to rescue Zhukov's troops, the outcome of the Far East Campaign would be different.  Not to mention, if the Soviet troops from both fronts turn around and return reinforcements.  Even with the wisdom of Prince Zairen, he could only watch helplessly as Zhukov's troops were rescued.

    When formulating the final general attack plan for the Far East Campaign, this uncertain factor troubled him for a long time. In his overall Far East Campaign plan, this unexpected occurrence was beyond his prediction and under normal circumstances.  At this time, the Soviet Trans-Xinganling Front Army and the Lake Baikal Front Army, with more than two million troops, should be on the Minusinsk front line, preparing to cross the Ural Mountains.

    It¡¯s that China devil Tang Qiuli, on the line from Chita to Irkutsk.  Such a sudden attack caused the Soviet army to linger here for a long time. This distance is neither far nor close. Anyway, if the Soviet army wants to return to aid the Far East Front, then after launching a general attack, it will  At the most critical moment, the Soviet army will definitely be able to rush to the battlefield. I believe that by then, Zhukov's troops will be very few, but they will not be completely annihilated.

    This is not just a matter of regret, but that his Far East campaign plan failed to end perfectly and the effect was greatly reduced. This is something Prince Zain does not want to see. He must take corresponding measures to avoid such a situation.  As a result, Prince Zai Ren hated Tang Qiu Li even more.

    "Gentlemen, this is a problem that cannot be ignored. When we launch the final general attack in the Far East Campaign, we must avoid such a situation. Therefore, I have formulated another targeted plan!" Prince Zai Ren talked eloquently.  said.

    All the Japanese generals pricked up their ears to see if His Highness the Prince had any other clever plans. Minister Yamada's eyes jumped, and a trace of doubt disappeared. Even he didn't know about this plan. Why?

    He couldn't help but speculate. All kinds of judgments were passing through Major General Yamada's mind like lightning. However, even though he racked his brains to think about it, he couldn't figure it out. Compared with the thoughtful Major General Yamada, he couldn't help but speculate.  , Chief of Staff of Xinye, there are not so many Xiao Jiujiu'er, he is not surprised. What the hell is this? The general attack plan for the Far East Campaign was all done by His Highness behind closed doors, let alone others.  A plan, normal!

    Prince Zaihi stood up and glanced at the large military map on the left wall. Finally, he stopped at the back, where Emperor Hirohito hung high.On the portrait, he turned around and seemed to be having a silent exchange with his brother, the emperor. All the senior Russian military officers present at the meeting did not dare to express their anger, as if they had realized from the actions of His Highness the Prince.  A sacred and mysterious feeling.

    After a while, Prince Zai Ren turned around and said firmly: "Order, the Far East Expeditionary Force will mobilize three divisions of troops, and the Korean Garrison Army will mobilize three divisions of troops to form a rearguard battle group with a strength of two.  More than 100,000 people are deployed in the current area. Their only mission is to monitor every move of the two Soviet fronts from Chita to Irkutsk! "

    "I would like to explain in particular that the task of the rearguard battle group may seem easy, but in fact it contains huge dangers. Once the Soviet army returns to support Zhukov's troops, the task of the six divisions is to resolutely block the Soviet army in the deployment area.  Remember, the returning Soviet army must not return for reinforcements. Without my personal order, even if we fight to the death, we cannot retreat even half a step!"

    With this said, the Japanese generals completely understood that if the Soviet troops of the two fronts did not return to assist Zhukov's troops, the imperial troops of these six divisions would get a good job without having to go to the battlefield to fight with the Soviet troops.  Fight to the death and survive. Once the Soviet troops return to support, they will risk their lives and keep an eye on the blocking line. All the troops will not be allowed to retreat. The total strength of the returning Soviet troops is more than two million people, ten of them.  With a one-to-one comparison of forces and a rearguard battle group, the fate of the last soldier is destined to be wiped out.

    From this point of view, the divisions assigned to the rearguard battle cluster were unlucky troops. The mood of the Japanese generals began to become complicated, and they were more or less wondering whether their troops would be organized into the rearguard battle cluster.  In the order of battle?

    Prince Zai Ren saw the reaction of the generals, his eyes became cold and stern, and he said sternly: "Once a battle breaks out, as for when the rearguard battle group will withdraw from the blocking line, I can tell you with certainty that the Soviet Union will be completely annihilated.  After the Far Eastern Front troops, therefore, the troops responsible for the general attack on the Soviet Far Eastern Front should work harder and not let the soldiers of the Imperial Army shed more blood because of our delay! "

    Hundreds of Japanese generals were startled. Prince Zain continued: "In order to strengthen the command of the rearguard battle group and facilitate the unified coordination of the actions of the troops, I have decided that Lieutenant General Shinno Ry¨±aki, Chief of Staff of the Far East Campaign Headquarters, will concurrently serve as commander.  After the meeting, he will work with Commander Ono and Commander Tanaka to study the mobilization of that force. The formation of the rearguard battle group must be completed before noon tomorrow! "

    After saying these words, Zai Ren looked at Lieutenant General Shinno, whose face was gloomy and uncertain, and asked gently: "Shinye-kun, what do you think?"

    Lieutenant General Shinno hurriedly stood up, puffed out his chest and belly, and replied impassionedly: "Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, the Ministry will live up to its trust. Once the Soviet army returns to support, it will definitely prevent the Soviet army from getting close to the battlefield in the Far East, even if it is  It is the honor of a soldier to be loyal to the Empire of Japan and His Majesty the Emperor no matter how hard it is!"

    "Yo Xi! - Ninye-kun, as long as you have such determination, I can rest assured. The safety of the rearguard of the attacking force is entrusted to Ninye-kun!" As he said this, Zai Ren solemnly looked towards Chief of Staff Ninye.  Take a bow.

    Chief of Staff Shinno hurriedly bowed back, his face was calm, but his heart was anything but calm and he sat down. To be honest, Lieutenant General Shinye Ry¨±zhao's mood at the moment was hard to describe. It was more than a dozen mixed feelings.  The smell, a mixture of joy and sorrow, made his heart feel as uncomfortable as boiling oil.

    Lieutenant General Shinno never expected that His Highness the Prince would order his own general without asking for his opinion in advance. Such a move suddenly came. Was it a sudden disaster or an unexpected blessing?  Even Amaterasu couldn't explain clearly, his heart was already in a mess like paste.

    If the Soviet army does not return reinforcements, everything will be easy to say. The Far East Campaign is successfully concluded, and naturally the rearguard battle group will not be able to take away a share of the credit. As a concurrent commander, he can also be ranked in terms of rewards. However, once the Soviet army returns,  The reinforcements were more than two million Soviet soldiers who looked like wolves and tigers. The strength ratio was ten to one, and they could not retreat even half a step. As a lieutenant general, chief of staff and commander, he had to keep an eye on the blocking line.  Fighting to the last soldier, wouldn't he also be broken into pieces!

    Chief of Staff Shinye had countless thoughts running through his head, painfully weighing the risks and benefits. However, with his IQ, experience, and little brain power, he couldn't tell whether it was a blessing or a curse. He could only worry about the gains and losses.  Heart, there is one more thing that he doesn't understand. Why did His Highness choose himself instead of that guy Yamada?

    Chief of Staff Shinye was only focused on his own petty thoughts. He didn't listen to what Prince Zairen said. He pondered over and over again about this appointment without warning, and the dangers and opportunities coexisted in the position of commander.

    Let the Chief of Staff of the Far East Campaign Headquarters serve concurrently as the interim commanderThe commander of a force formed was already beyond the expectations of the Japanese generals. Next, another appointment made by Prince Zain made the Japanese generals stunned and their eyes dropped.  .
