Chapter 485: This is how to deal with conflicts!
Rehe Front
Although there has been a ceasefire here for a long time, Zhang Maozi has been busy since he arrived. He advances one hundred meters today and two hundred meters tomorrow. In short, the camp is getting closer and closer to the northeast. Slow cutting makes the flesh less painful. This Zhang Maozi is the best at playing.
The Japanese didn't dare to confront Zhang Maozi, so they could only retreat slowly. If you didn't retreat when the people of the 72nd Division were in front of you, they would shoot you in the middle of the night and make it impossible for you to sleep well.
According to the previous development trend, the Japanese did not dare to provoke Zhang Maozi, but suddenly they said that two people were missing and wanted to enter the military camp to search. It was as if they had taken psychiatric drugs.
Zhang Maozi's arrogant and brave soldiers came to Rehe, and before any tough battle was fought, you said you wanted to enter our military camp to search. If we let you in, according to our division commander's temper, you would have to take off your military uniforms and go home to hug your children. You are not suitable to serve in the 72nd Division.
The battalion commander in charge of defense at the time, without saying a word, directly mobilized the machine gun on the armored vehicle behind him and fired at the Japanese soldiers.
More than a hundred people died at that time...
The Japanese made no preparation for this. They created this incident because of the pressure from the Russians. They believed that the Japanese did almost nothing in the process of the alliance between the two sides, and it was the Russians who took the lead in all the things.
In order to make the Russians shut up, they planned this action. Of course, they only wanted to use words instead of hands. Who knew that the people of the 4th Brigade of the 72nd Division were so tough? After just a few curses, the heavy machine guns spoke.
The Kwantung Army Chief of Staff, Muto Koichirō, who planned this incident, immediately rushed to the scene. Of course, he did not command his troops to prepare for battle, but tried his best to suppress the soldiers involved in the operation.
They are very clear about the current situation. The main force of the 72nd Division is on the grassland, but the newly arrived 4th Brigade is not a pushover either. The losses we suffered at their hands before have not yet healed. If a fight breaks out now, those Russians will be very happy.
At the Kwantung Army headquarters, the Russians sent telegrams one after another, hoping that they would tear open a gap on the eastern front and relieve their pressure on the Xiongnu steppes.
Originally, the Japanese also thought this was an opportunity, but after the army of Prince Bashan was defeated, everyone immediately changed their tune.
Prince Bashan's army is not very strong in combat, but they are native Huns, and they can do a lot of things in the entire Huns grassland. Prince Bashan is also the Huns prince who follows the Rakshasa people most closely, and he has the same result. The rest of the Huns are probably two-faced.
The Japanese Army conducted a war game simulation. Unless the Far East Military Region deployed all its troops, including the troops of the Central Siberia Military Region, there would be a chance of winning. But in this case, Russia would have to mobilize at least 600,000 troops. Would they be willing to do that?
If he refuses, the Xiongnu grassland will definitely belong to Li Shaoyi. If we provoke him now, and he has cleaned up the matter on the grassland, he will definitely push all the way to the northeast. Are we crazy?
Now at the junction of Rehe and the Northeast, the Kwantung Army has fought for more than 100,000 civilians and spent huge sums of money to build several deep defense lines.
Even so, some young officers who had returned from studying abroad in Junkers believed that it would be difficult to stop the iron torrent of the 72nd Division.
So they lied about the two soldiers being missing in order to create a diplomatic incident and let the Russians see that we are working hard and not just sitting back and watching the show as you said.
But the development of the matter was beyond their expectations. After more than one hundred people died, we were the ones who felt wronged. However, we did not expect that the commander of the 4th Brigade of the 72nd Division would actually order the entire defense line to enter the second-level combat readiness state. The planes flying in the sky also began to cross the line. Although no bombs were dropped yet, they were all flying with bombs.
In addition to the 4th Brigade with more than 20,000 people, there are nine security groups with more than 27,000 people in the surrounding area.
Ordinary security groups are composed of 2,000 people, but those near the battlefield have all been expanded to 3,000 people.
According to the experience of previous battles, if these people really attack, the Japanese side will have to prepare at least six divisions to withstand their crazy attack. Of course, luck must be on our side. If it were the 72nd Division, it would not be able to withstand it.
Headquarters of the 4th Brigade of the 72nd Division
"Commander, the Marshal's telegram has arrived..."
Liu Tianye, Chief of Staff of the Fourth Brigade, came in with a telegram. This sentence attracted everyone in the command center. After this incident happened, they immediately sent a telegram to the Marshal, but there was no reply. This was also the reason why Zhang Maozi did not order an attack. Now that the telegram came back, it meant that there were instructions.
"What did the Marshal say?"
Zhang Maozi also said very excitedly that after all, this telegram was related to whether they could fight. Although the brothers were ready, they still had to obey the Marshal's orders.
"Look for yourself. The Marshal said that the main attack direction is currently on the Xiongnu steppe. He doesn't understand the situation here, so he let us make our own decision."
Liu Tianye said with a wry smile that this person graduated from the Hankou branch of the Central Military Academy and was considered one of the first observers of the Central Army. However, he never went back after he came here. After passing the internal advanced examination, he served as the acting chief of staff of the Fourth Brigade.
Whether you can remove this code depends on your ability.
Zhang Maozi was also bitter about Li Shaoyi's unclear instructions. If I say you are not allowed to fight, you still have the decision-making power. If I say you are allowed to fight, there is a prerequisite. At present, the Huns are the main direction of attack, which means that we must control the scale of the fighting on our side.
"It's normal for the Marshal to have such thoughts. Since the war began, our air force has been continuously supporting the Xiongnu grasslands. Currently, the number of combat aircraft has dropped to over 500, which is more than half of the original number."
Zhang Maozi looked at the report next to him and said that there were originally at least more than a thousand aircraft fighting here, but now all the transport planes have been withdrawn, and some fighter planes and bombers have also been stolen.
"According to the Air Force's report, we'll be able to add over a hundred pilots next month, and we'll also be able to request over a hundred fighters and bombers. Forget about transport planes. The Japanese First Air Division has also been replenished, but the numbers are still far behind ours, so they won't have the upper hand in a real fight."
Liu Tianye found another report from the Air Force. It meant that if he was obedient, he had to fight the Japanese. If he didn't fight, when would he be able to get rid of the label on his head?
