    It is very simple for them to do this, that is, they need to wait for more reinforcements and supplies to arrive.

    The Soviets¡¯ focus is on Europe. Although they have invested huge war resources in the Far East at this time, they will not always be in a stalemate with the Japanese army here.

    "But the Japanese army relied on the Northeast region and was closer to here. On the contrary, it had the capital to continue the stalemate with the Soviets.

    Michutaro Komatsubara thought this very clearly, so at this time he was trying to delay the Soviet attack as much as possible.  Of course, if the Soviets had a huge flaw, or if the Fifth Division they were attacking on the flank had made some progress, then he wouldn't mind and let his troops launch a fierce enough counterattack.

    But at present, Zhukov rarely reveals obvious flaws when he directs a war.  Although their attacks on the flanks have achieved certain results, they have never had a good way to expand their results.

    The Soviet attack on the Japanese army lasted until seven o'clock in the evening, when it was completely dark, and then it gradually stopped.

    Frankly speaking, their battle did not achieve the expected results.  Because according to the original plan, they planned to penetrate the Japanese defense line directly from the center and directly crush the Japanese army.

    But at this time, it had only advanced a few kilometers, which was much different from the original combat expectations.

    But Zhukov¡¯s mentality was calm, thinking that if he couldn¡¯t win in one day, then he would take two days, three days, a week, or even half a month!

    He now has sufficient supplies. As long as this battle does not delay for a year and a half, he can continue to consume the Japanese army.

    "Order the troops to rest, consolidate their positions, arrange sentries, and be careful of Japanese night attacks. The attack will continue tomorrow." Zhukov gave an order and returned to his headquarters.

    Time passed by, and in the early morning of the next day, the Japanese army was once again awakened from their sleep by Soviet shelling.

    And those Soviet soldiers are already ready to go.  After the shelling ended, they immediately began to follow the armored vehicles and tanks and launch another attack on the Japanese positions.

    Their attack lasted for three days in total.

    With every attack, the Japanese army would lose part of their position, but this group of people was very tenacious. With the depth of their position, the Soviets had to pay a huge price for every step forward.

    Just as the Soviets and the Japanese were launching a new round of tug-of-war on the battlefield in Outer Mongolia, Xia Yang's troops had jumped out of the Japanese search circle and arrived at the outskirts of Hailar again.

    Because the Japanese army transferred a large number of troops to the Nomenhan area to encircle Xia Yang and his troops, their defenses in the Hailar area once again became very empty.

    There are more troops stationed in Hylar at this time than last time, but they only have the strength of two regiments.

    But correspondingly, the troops Xia Yang brought this time were also highly mobile troops of nearly 20,000 people.

    At this time, only the Second Cavalry Regiment remained in the Nomenhan area, where they gave the Japanese army the illusion that they were still in that area.

    The Second Cavalry Regiment broke all the troops into parts, and basically acted alone in the form of a cavalry company.  But when they act, their momentum must be large enough, but they must not engage in direct combat with the Japanese troops, but run away when they see the Japanese troops.

    This will create the illusion that Xia Yang and his troops are still operating in the Nomenhan area.

    Although this illusion cannot last for a few days, what Xia Yang needs is just a few days.

    Because with these few days, their troops can take the opportunity to return to the Hailar area and once again destroy the munitions warehouses and ammunition depots set up by the Japanese army here.

    The Japanese troops on the front line were already very uncomfortable.  If these supplies that had just arrived here and were being sent to the Japanese troops on the front lines were captured now, the Japanese troops fighting the Soviets on the frontal battlefield would probably be ten times more uncomfortable than they are now.

    The Japanese army stationed here is the 7th Task Force Brigade belonging to the 36th Division, which includes two regiments, one of which is an infantry regiment and the other is a tank regiment.

    The strength of the defense this time is much stronger than that of the last regiment.

    Their brigade commander is Yamashita Matsuji, who graduated from the Imperial Army Military Academy. This man is not very old, but he is already in the position of brigade commander.

    This is not how he performed in the Army AcademyExcellent, not because of his outstanding military exploits, but because his ancestor was a daimyo.  Even after the Meiji Restoration, as the "Chinese" in Japan, they still have resources and connections that ordinary people will never have.

    And through these resources, he can easily obtain the military ranks and positions that others need to struggle for a lifetime to obtain.

    This is also a problem for many senior commanders of the Kwantung Army at this time, that is, although they have very excellent soldiers and equally excellent middle and lower-level commanders, their senior commanders often have money in their mouths.  A nobleman who grew up with keys.

    Although each of these aristocratic sons has basically received training from the Army Academy, they are definitely not the slightest bit different from some high-level commanders who have rich combat experience and accumulated military exploits.

    Xia Yang also had a very detailed understanding of the specific information of these Japanese officers through the intelligence from the ANBU.

    Xia Yang was quite comfortable dealing with these commanders who could only talk on paper but were a mess in combat command.  Compared with these elite Japanese Kwantung Army, Xia Yang was actually more afraid of the old Japanese with rich combat experience in the Kwantung Army.

    The urban area of ??Hailar has been lifted from alert status at this time.  Many Japanese expatriates living in the city have also returned to normal lives.

    After all, they don¡¯t think that anyone would dare to come here to attack Hylar.  Isn't that looking for death?  After all, two divisions and a tank brigade were active in this area.

    The red light district in Hailar is brightly lit. There are many Japanese officers resting here. They have fun in the cabaret and even nightclubs in the red light district, releasing the mental pressure caused by the long-term war.

    The Japanese officers who come here to relax include not only the Japanese officers stationed here, but also many Japanese officers on the front line.

    Because of the combat rotation, many officers came to Hailar, which is relatively close to the battlefield in Outer Mongolia, for a short rest on Sunday.  Then take a plane to their frontal battlefield and rejoin the attack on the Soviets.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
