Xinjing. Kwantung Army Headquarters.
Such a large-scale mobilization of the national army obviously could not be hidden from the Japanese. Soon the Kwantung Army headquarters received a report from the intelligence department, and then Yamada Otsuzo immediately held a combat meeting to discuss the matter.
The atmosphere in the conference room was very solemn. None of the Japanese division commanders and brigade commanders had a smile on their faces. Everyone seemed to have eaten Coptis chinensis, unable to express their suffering.
On the main seat,General Yamada Otosan's hair has turned half white, and his already thin body looks even shorter with his sluggish expression.
After everyone arrived, Yamada Otsuzo said in a deep voice: "I have just received information that a large number of troops are being mobilized and assembled. The total strength has reached hundreds of thousands. Everyone is talking about how to deal with it. "
"Nani, hundreds of thousands? What does that person want to do? Are they going to have a strategic decisive battle with the empire, Baga." General Kita Makoto, commander of the First Front Army, roared angrily.
Lieutenant General Qin Yanzaburo immediately said: "Don't be impatient, Mr. Kita. We have ordered the intelligence department to investigate. The result is indeed like this. Not only did that person transfer a large number of elite troops from the Western Front, but they also sent troops to the South Manchuria and the eastern grasslands have recruited a large number of new soldiers, and in terms of total military strength, they are no longer weaker than the Imperial Japanese Army!"
The commander of the 44th Army, Yoshio Hongo, also stood up and said: "Your Excellency, Commander, there is no need to do more research on the current situation. That person must be coming for our Kwantung Army. There is no doubt about this, so we are now The most important thing is to issue a war preparation order to prepare the people and troops for battle!"
"Yoshi, order the entire army to immediately enter the first level of combat status, order all peripheral troops from Fengtian to withdraw into nearby towns, build defensive positions on the spot, and block the troops going north from the front line of Fengtian." General Yamada Yisan dripped decisively Order.
"Hai!"
"The troops in Northern Manchuria also need to reduce their strength. They can abandon all their strongholds at the township level, but they must ensure the safety of strategic locations and transportation lines in various places. Especially the Qiqihar line, where the Z/N people have been harassing them for some time. It¡¯s time, we must not make mistakes again at this time!¡±
"Hai!"
At this moment, Yujiro Iwata, the head of the Kwantung Army's intelligence department, stood up and said: "Your Excellency, Commander, the situation reported from the Soviet Union in the past few days is not good. A large number of troops in the Far East Military Region are gathering, and they seem to intend to attack Manchuria. !¡±
As soon as these words came out, the entire conference room suddenly took a breath of cold air. The Soviets could be said to be a taboo of the Kwantung Army at this time. Normally, no one would dare to mention this unit.
But others can ignore it, but Major General Iwata cannot. He is the head of the intelligence department. If something happens, he will have to bear the responsibility, so he can only bite the bullet and report the situation. After all, it is better to believe it or not. Its none.
And Major General Iwata¡¯s idea is also simple, not seeking merit but seeking no fault!
"Qin Yanjun, do the Soviets really want to go to war with the Empire of Japan?" General Yamada Otsuzo asked in a deep voice.
"Although there is no evidence that the Soviets want to attack Manchuria, it is true that they have strengthened the defense and military strength in the Far East."
¡°In your opinion, how likely is it that the Soviets will join the war?¡±
"About 50%!"
"Only 50%?"
"Well, although the Soviets have solved Germany on the Western Front, the Soviet Union, the United States, Britain, France and other countries are currently fighting over how to occupy Germany. Moreover, the Soviet army suffered heavy losses when attacking Germany, and they should not intervene in the Far East in the short term. battle." Lieutenant General Qin Yansanlang said.
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard General Chun from the Harem saying in a deep voice: "I don't think so. The Soviets have made it clear that they are not willing to renew the contract with the Empire of Japan. This shows that the Soviets already have the intention to take action against the Empire. This If there is cooperation from that person, once the other side joins forces to fight, the Imperial Japanese Army will be very likely to be defeated, so I suggest that the defenders in various places should immediately reduce their forces and make plans to withdraw their troops to North Korea!"
"Your Excellency, Commander, I do not agree with the opinion of Your Excellency Harem Chun. There are three reasons"
