Age of Conquest Reborn

Pressure - the huge pressure from the Soviet Union's Trans-Xing'anling Front Army and the Baikal Lake Front Army. Although the Far East Campaign went very smoothly, and the Japanese troops participating in the war launched a massive offensive, but starting from the day of the attack on the Soviet Far East Front Army, the commander-in-chief of the Japanese Army's Far East Campaign

Prince Guan Zairen was accompanied by a huge pressure.

Prince Zai Ren knew very well that he seemed to have the upper hand now. The Soviet Far Eastern Front Army was surrounded from all sides and had no way to escape. However, the foundation of everything was based on the prerequisite for the rapid annihilation of the Soviet Far Eastern Front Army.

According to the Far East campaign plan, the besieging Far East Front troops must break through all the Soviet defense systems within one week, and then use another week to divide and surround the Soviet troops and gradually eliminate them. Two weeks will be used to solve the problem.

The more than one million Soviet troops were already the limit of the combat power of the Japanese army in the Far East.

However, the development of the war situation was still out of the control of Prince Zai Ren. Perhaps, since the Reading Division troops detained the two Soviet front troops on the line from Chita to Irkutsk, the trend of the war situation began.

, which completely deviated from Prince Zai Ren's expectations. However, the situation at that time was such that the arrow was on the string and had to be fired. No matter what, it had to be fought hard.

Therefore, Prince Zai Ren had to seize the time to deal with the Soviet Far East Front Army before the Soviet reinforcements arrived. However, contrary to expectations, nearly two million Japanese troops attacked the Soviet defense system from all directions and fought for a week.

Although they have successively broken through the two defense lines of the Soviet army and compressed the Soviet army's battlefield survival space step by step, the Imperial Army of the Japanese Empire seems to be winning every step of the way?

However, not only Prince Zairen, but also the Japanese commanders on the front line could see that Zhukov was deliberately shrinking the defense circle to preserve enough strength. The Soviet defense circle was shrinking further and further, and the Soviet defense was

The thickness of the troops is becoming more and more dense. Every time the Japanese army takes a step forward, it has to pay a huge price.

Prince Zain was quite dissatisfied with the speed of the troops' attack. The telegrams sent to the commander of the Japanese Far East Expeditionary Force, General Ono Norigoro, and the commander of the Korean Garrison Army, General Tanaka Shinichi, were full of words of encouragement and reprimand.

, However, there was no strict order for General Nanjiro, the commander of the Kwantung Army.

Prince Zai Ren was quite satisfied with the performance of the Kwantung Army. Nanjiro's performance after the siege of the Far East Front began was remarkable. When facing Zhukov's solid ice and snow fortifications, the Kwantung Army was the first to break through the Soviet army.

The imperial troops in the position then led the imperial troops in other directions, seizing the Soviet army's first attack speed with confidence. Even Prince Zai Ren, who had a high self-esteem, could not criticize such a brave and skilled general.

After breaking through two defensive circles of the Soviet army, the offensive troops could no longer move forward. They attacked fiercely for a whole day, including the Kwantung Army troops, without making any progress. The Soviet Far East Army troops were just like a piece of ammunition.

Although the extremely good steel plate is deformed in many places and could break at any time, at every critical moment, it will explode with amazing elasticity and vitality, pushing back the attacking Japanese troops.

Prince Zai Ren was angry. He was extremely angry. Zhukov, who could not be beaten to death, tried his best to break through the blocking Soviet front troops. They were like two heavy boulders, weighing on his heart. The current battlefield in the Far East was actually divided into two parts.

, the troops besieging the Soviet Far East Front were mainly attacking on the main battlefield, and the troops blocking the Soviet reinforcements were mainly defending on the secondary battlefield. However, the situation was completely different. It seemed that all battlefield situations were beneficial to the Imperial Army.

But Prince Zai Ren saw the huge hidden crisis in it. The entire Far East campaign plan, the battle rearguard group that blocked the Soviet reinforcements, was the biggest weakness. Prince Zai Ren believed that the troops commanded by Lieutenant General Haruhiko Taichi were also a piece of cake.

The steel plate has excellent elasticity, but it has a fatal weakness. The force is at an absolute disadvantage, which makes this blocking line lack sufficient defensive depth support. As long as it breaks, the entire blocking line will collapse immediately.

Next, more than two million Soviet soldiers will rush to the battlefield in the Far East like a tide. The German Imperial Army troops besieging Zhukov will turn from the besiegers to the besieged. Every time he thinks of this, Prince Zai Ren gets sick all over.

Breaking into a cold sweat, he was particularly angry at the delay in the offensive troops being able to separate and surround the Soviet army.

"Yamada-kun, please send a telegram to the commander of the Far East Expeditionary Force, Ono Norioro, and the commander of the North Korean garrison army, Tanaka Shinichi, ordering them to break through the core defensive positions of the Soviet army within two days and divide and surround the Soviet army.

If you can't finish this

For this task, they will come to the headquarters to claim their guilt! I will prepare a place for them to commit suicide by caesarean section!" Prince Zai Ren, who had just finished his rage and almost smashed the furniture in the office, gritted his teeth and ordered Major General Yamada, the head of the headquarters staff headquarters.

road.

At this time, Prince Zain, in the eyes of General Yamada, looked ferocious and terrifying. "Two Imperial Army generals, the top commanders responsible for the same campaign direction, only have two days to live!" Major General Yamada lamented in his heart.

After Major General Yamada recorded the order, he thought about it and asked: "Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, does the headquarters have the latest order for the Kwantung Army troops?"

Prince Zai Ren shook his head and looked a little tired and said: "No need, Nancijun has his own attack rhythm. The Kwantung Army has performed well, and the headquarters should not interfere too much!"

Major General Yamada immediately shut up and stopped. However, he still felt a strange feeling in his heart. "We are commanders in the same offensive direction, but their treatment of each other is very different. General Ono and General Tanaka were treated by His Highness the Prince."

Scold like a dog

The bloody head was sprayed with blood, and the place for suicide was prepared. However, General Nanjiro was treated aloof from outsiders. Not only was there no reprimand, the headquarters did not even interfere with how to attack. He also grew up eating imperial rice, and was treated like a human being.

, why is the difference so big?”

Major General Yamada was about to leave when Prince Zairen suddenly said: "Send a telegram to General Nanjiro, Nanji-kun, the Far East Campaign has reached its most critical moment. The Soviet reinforcements are attacking fiercely, and the imperial blocking troops are fighting extremely hard.

Time is very precious to the Imperial Army. Every minute and every second is very precious. I hope Nanji-kun can create another miracle and be the first to break through the core defensive position of the Soviet army and set an example for the imperial troops participating in the war. Please, Nanji-kun!"

Prince Zai Ren pinned all his hopes on the powerful Kwantung Army. After Major General Yamada left, Prince Zai Ren looked at the dark night sky. He did not understand at all. Faced with being surrounded and embattled on all sides, Prince Zai Ren

Zhukov, for

How can he maintain the rhythm of the battlefield, step by step, and reduce the scope of defense in a planned manner, "This person should be a strong enemy of the Imperial Army. It is commendable that Nanjiro was able to confront this person for more than three years without falling behind."

!" He thought with emotion.

At around nine o'clock that night, in the headquarters of the Reading Division in Kulun, Outer Mongolia, Chief of Staff Zhao Yuhe opened the door of Tang Qiuli's office. "Division Commander, Deputy Commander Liu called. All our troops in the Far East have been dispatched in accordance with the division's instructions."

Order, break away from Su

In addition, the troops of the Niangziguan Garrison Corps have returned to western Liaoning overnight under the command of Chief of Staff Zhang Hansheng, and the North China Field Corps Yuan Jinghao's troops have left Irkutsk and headed south." He quickly read the contents of the telegram.

Tang Qiuli was silent for a moment thoughtfully, but then asked another question, "Yu He, did Deputy Commander Liu's telegram mention the Soviet army's reaction after our army retreated?"

Zhao Yuhe smiled and said, "Commander, Deputy Commander Liu really knows you. In another telegram, Deputy Commander Liu mentioned the performance of the Soviet army. In our Far East region, our troops broke away from the Soviet army without concealing their whereabouts.

After the contact, according to the report of the reconnaissance force, the Soviet army not only did not relax its vigilance, but instead entered a state of combat across the board as if facing a formidable enemy. The Soviet Trans-Hinggan Mountains Front Army and the Baikal Lake Front Army, the troops that were originally confronting our army, were all like this!"

"What?" Tang Qiuli raised his eyebrows in surprise, "That's not normal. The negotiation agreement between us and the Soviet Union has been signed. It's been more than five hours since Molotov left. It's enough time to return to Moscow. The Soviet Union

The generals on the front line should have received a notification from Stalin. They know that our army's retreat is fulfilling the negotiation agreement, but why are they still so nervous?" He said to himself doubtfully.

Zhao Yuhe explained the abnormal behavior of the Soviet army from another angle, "Commander, it is very likely that Stalin did not believe in our sincerity and ordered the Soviet army to maintain due vigilance. Only after it was confirmed did he dare to send all the troops

The troops are all engaged in the attack to break through the Japanese blocking line!" After finishing speaking, he added, "Commander, think about it, how many times the Soviet army suffered under your hands, Stalin

I’m scared of being beaten by you!”

Tang Qiuli laughed loudly and agreed with Zhao Yuhe's interpretation. However, he still had great doubts in his heart. "Time is very precious to the Soviet army. A few hours are enough to return to the Soviet Union."

The Soviet army, which was receiving reinforcements, used all its forces in the attack, but assumed a posture as if it were facing a powerful enemy. Which part of the process went wrong?"

Although he thinks so, he will not be troubled by this problem. He has already followed the negotiation agreement. As for the reaction of the Soviets, that is Stalin's own business. He can't help it if he is suspicious and doesn't believe it.

Stalin was a master of intrigues, so he would naturally be prepared to let others take advantage of him. However, there was no need to do so. His attention was no longer on the Soviet army.

Soon, Tang Qiuli's thoughts were all focused on the upcoming plan to launch a large-scale offensive against the Japanese army in the Far East. The staff officers who came in and out from time to time sent the necessary information. Chief of Staff Zhao Yuhe and the staff officers

Division Chief Ge Zhenzhuang was also involved in intense work, and the Soviet army's unusual reaction was quickly forgotten.
