    In fact, both the Kwantung Army and the Japanese base camp clearly judged that this offensive launched by the Anti-Japanese Alliance should be the Anti-Japanese Alliance's last offensive on the Northeast battlefield. The current Anti-Japanese Alliance is obviously at the end of its war effort on the battlefield.  , as long as we can withstand the last three axes of the Anti-Japanese Alliance, the Northeast battlefield will end here.

    But even if the situation is clearly judged, the Kwantung Army, which suffered huge casualties in the previous battle, even far more than the Anti-Japanese Alliance, is now in the same state of having no troops to adjust, facing  Regarding the offensive launched by the Anti-League in Rehe, although it has been accurately judged that the offensive in Rehe should be a diversionary action launched by the Anti-League.

    However, the Kwantung Army did not dare to mobilize troops from western Liaoning to reinforce South Manchuria no matter what. With its troops in western Liaoning being restrained, the Kwantung Army was unable to mobilize troops for reinforcements. Umezu Yoshijiro had to take the risk and quickly mobilized troops from the front of the Siping battlefield.  The two regiments and six infantry brigades immediately deployed along the entire line from Xinmin to ***, Hushitai, and Xinchengzi.

    At the same time, capable personnel were immediately dispatched to return to Lushun by plane. Six infantry squadrons were mobilized from the Lushun garrison and the Waichangshan Islands Independent Garrison Brigade, and the overseas Chinese in Guandong Prefecture and all Japanese and Korean nationals were mobilized.  The police, except for a small number of military police left in each county to cooperate with the same small number of military police to maintain so-called public order, were all sent to the front line to participate in the war.

    The war situation is urgent and there is no time to train. The police are not stationed in a centralized manner. They can only be organized into squadrons and be transferred to the front line in waves. As for how many of those police officers can come back alive, it is not the case of Umezu Yoshijiro, who is currently eager to stabilize the front line battle situation.  General, you can take care of this.

    Anyway, there are still some navy garrisoned in Kanto Prefecture. The empire has always had extremely tight control over the security of Kanto Prefecture, and the security is considered to be good. There won¡¯t be many problems if the empire transfers some police officers. If there is a temporary gap in security, the jellyfish from the navy can be mobilized to participate.  .

    However, considering that after concentrating some police, the number of soldiers was still somewhat insufficient. After concentrating the police and putting them into front-line operations, General Umezu Yoshijiro sent people to Kanto Prefecture to recruit all male expatriates, despite the firm opposition of local administrators.  All those aged over seventeen and under forty-five were gathered together and brought to Dashiqiao for training as reserve personnel, ready to go to the battlefield at any time.

    On the front of Umezu Yoshijiro, while the Kwantung Army was recruiting soldiers from the rear at all costs, the Anti-Japanese Alliance was also organically reorganizing the original engineering, railway and other arms, including the few remaining guard troops in the rear, into  The organized ones were transferred to the front line, and even the guard regiments of the Northeast Bureau and the Northeast People's Government were transferred to two battalions.

    In order to prepare for this final blow, his opponent the Anti-Japanese Alliance is also doing everything it can. Except for some railway corps and infrastructure engineering corps who are rushing to repair the Tongliao-Kailu railway line and some secret railway lines, all railway corps and  All engineering corps will be reorganized.

    A division that was originally reorganized and replenished with the railway corps as its backbone was simply unable to meet the needs. After re-entering the huge meat grinder-like battlefield around Siping, it only caused a few waves and was unable to change the situation in the entire theater. The front line joined the battle.  Each unit has reached a point where it is impossible to realize the headquarters plan without replenishment.

    Under the overall situation that the follow-up troops are still insufficient, Guo Bingxun personally communicated with the commanders and political commissars of each secondary military region, as well as the heads of the railway corps, infrastructure engineering corps, and various departments of the logistics department, according to the location of each secondary military region and division.  The armed forces of each county, except for one cavalry squad and one infantry squadron left in each county, were all concentrated for reorganization.

    A semi-reorganized division was formed, and all of them were deployed to the front line. The most severely damaged troops in the battle, which had been allocated to the railway public security forces within the Northeast Bureau's organizational structure, were all re-transferred to the combat troops. After collecting at all costs, Guo Bingxun was in the battle.  At the last critical moment, sixteen independent regiments of reserve soldiers were pieced together.

    After three days of intensive training, these soldiers immediately went to the Siping front line to replenish the battle losses of the front-line troops participating in the battle. Through various efforts, five divisions on the front line replenished their organizational structure, and three divisions partially restored their disabled units.  But this is already the limit of the Anti-League forces that can be mobilized and replenished.

    After this centralized adjustment, the entire army has only one regiment left in each secondary military region in the rear, which serves as guard and custody for prisoner of war camps and Japanese overseas concentration areas. Only one and a half local armed service squadrons are left in each county under each military division.  , responsible for supervision and guarding important targets.

    The Railway Corps only left two regiments and two independent battalions to continue repairing and opening the railway, as well as several secret railway lines in the lofty mountains of the Greater and Lesser Khingan Mountains. In addition to the ongoing renovation of various railway branch lines built by the Kwantung Army in the Changbai Mountains  All tasks were temporarily suspended, and all the troops mobilized were reorganized.

    Not counting those assigned to the aviation forceCorps, the headquarters is directly under the command of five infrastructure engineering corps formation groups and four independent battalions. Only three independent battalions are left to engage in secret projects in the Greater Khingan Mountains. The rest are all reorganized. The two regiments are merged into one and formed into two  The reorganized regiment and a simplified regiment were incorporated into front-line combat units to supplement casualties.

    The tasks originally undertaken for the hardening of various combat readiness roads, as well as the construction and reconstruction of permanent airports such as Jiamusi, Mudanjiang, Dongning, Wangqing, and Yanji, were all handed over to the local government, and the various military services and logistics departments could mobilize the security forces.  , mobilize as much as possible, and leave behind a platoon, but absolutely not a company.

    By adopting various means and halting the construction of a number of important projects, Guo Bingxun spared no effort to piece together a part of the replacement soldiers. In the case of insufficient recruitment of new soldiers, the slogan "Everything for the Front" spread throughout the base area, except for those who really could not be transferred.  Apart from the troops, almost all the troops that could be mobilized were drained.

    As for the shortage of remaining troops in the area, the original recruits were temporarily changed and all were concentrated in the military region for unified training and extreme training. All recruits were organized into twenty new regiments and transferred to the second-line areas. They were trained while serving as  Second line security mission.

    The Kwantung Army and the Anti-Japanese Alliance are now exhausted. The troops they have deployed are already the last bit of strength at hand. In fact, everyone can no longer fight. However, the right to determine is not on the main battlefield in Northeast China, but in North China.  In Shanxi and Chanan, everyone is holding on for the last breath, and now the competition is to see who can't hold on and collapse first.

    Originally, Umezu Yoshijiro wanted to mobilize some troops from the Korean army to reinforce the Northeast battlefield, but the base camp refused his request without any room for consideration. The base camp made it clear that the Korean army would fight one soldier at a time under any circumstances.  No transfers are allowed.

    The Korean peninsula is the closest link between Japan and the mainland. The empire worked hard to annex Korea and even went to war with Russia at the time, just to get a springboard to attack China. Without Korea, the entire empire's armies in China and Manchuria would not be able to compete with the mainland.  All land connections will be severed.

    At the same time, the Korean army is not only responsible for the defense of key parts of the connection between the mainland and the China battlefield, but also one of the important barriers in the last defense circle of the empire. The two divisions it belongs to are now under the command of the Home Defense Headquarters. These two  The division is one of the few remaining standing divisions in the country.

    It can be said that they are responsible for the defense of the mainland, which is a very important part of the defense. If these two divisions are transferred to the Kwantung Army, what will happen to the mainland if something happens to North Korea? Moreover, there are no new divisions in the base camp now.  To fill the defense vacancies left after the two divisions of the North Korean Army were transferred.

    In addition to these reasons, the main reason why the base camp refused to mobilize North Korean troops into South Manchuria to participate in the war was that the Anti-Japanese Alliance currently controlled the Tumen River Estuary from Fengshan to Jingcheng and threatened the Japanese troops in northern Korea from the northeast.  In Pyongyang, the core of the rule, the Korean Peninsula is actually on the battlefield, and the Korean Peninsula plays an extremely important role in the overall strategic posture of the Japanese army.

    The most critical point is that the Anti-Alliance raided deep into southern Manchuria and swept across the entire Liaodong, which left a deep impression on the Japanese base camp. The large-scale penetration tactics used by the Anti-Alliance in that battle swept across Fengtian, Fushun, Benxi, and Anshan  , Liaoyang front line, so that the Japanese base camp still has lingering fears.

    If it were not for the convenience of command, the headquarters of the Kwantung Army was relocated to Kaiyuan after retreating from Siping, then the loss in this battle would not have been the industry of South Manchuria. Perhaps since the creation of a new army in the Meiji Restoration, the army may have been the first  An active-duty army general who died in battle or was captured.

    The base camp is very worried about the Anti-Japanese Alliance in North Korea. If the Anti-Japanese Alliance replicates the tactics adopted in South Manchuria in North Korea, it will not just be a matter of losing some factories, nor will it be the case on the Korean Peninsula.  Southern Manchuria is relatively far away from the mainland.

    The empire's mainland is separated from the Korean Peninsula by a not very wide strait, especially the Busan line. Due to the transportation relationship between the empire and the battlefields of South Manchuria and China, a large number of transport ships are concentrated. If these ships fall into the enemy's  In the hands of the Japanese army, coupled with the enemy's large number of bombers and transport aircraft, even if only one enemy soldier sets foot on the mainland, it will be a shame for Japan.

    Even if there is no sneak attack on the mainland, there are still many factories in North Korea that are necessary to maintain the war. At present, the Fengcheon Arsenal has been destroyed and cannot produce. If the arsenals in Incheon and Busan are lost again, it will bring fatal consequences to the empire's overall strategy.  Influence.

    Although General Umezu Yoshijiro has repeatedly assured that the resistance alliance in Northern Manchuria has now reached the limit of the use of troops, the base camp still does not dare to take any risks and directly refused to accept troops from the Korean Army or the Southern Army, even from the Chinese.Among the dispatched troops, at least one division application was given to the Kwantung Army to become an organic whole.

    The base camp directly told General Umezu Yoshijiro that the Southern Army's attack on Australia and India has entered the final preparations. All the reserve teams of the base camp have been transferred to the two battlefields of the Pacific and Southeast Asia. The Kwantung Army can only rely on its own strength to contain it.  Stay with the Anti-League offensive.

    Not only did it not provide any additional troops to the Kwantung Army, the base camp also transferred one-third of the artillery shells and half of the small arms ammunition from the last batch of ammunition reserves of the Kwantung Army at Brigade University. The Fengtian Arsenal was already in a state of shutdown.  , not a single bullet was allocated to the Kwantung Army from the mainland.

    Of course, the base camp did not do everything. It agreed that the North Korean army would immediately mobilize no less than 10,000 local soldiers from North Korea for the Kwantung Army, recruit 50,000 Korean recruits for the Kwantung Army, and arrange for the North Korean army to immediately dismantle Incheon.  Arsenal, all workers and technical personnel there, including a large amount of equipment, were transferred to the Kwantung Army.

    If the Kwantung Army can resume production at the Fengtian Arsenal in a short period of time, the base camp will not transfer any ammunition and materials from this factory throughout 1942, and will set up the few remaining military raw material factories in South Manchuria in the Kanto Prefecture.  Products can be allocated to the Kwantung Army with priority.
