Chapter 332 Asking for help from headquarters again

But it shouldn’t be!

How could the Japanese come to mess with them?

When the Japanese were beaten by the US military in the Pacific, they were like running around in panic. How could they be so interested in causing trouble for the Soviet army?

Although the Soviet Army is extremely reluctant to open the Eastern Front battlefield, it does not mean that the Soviet Army is afraid of the Kwantung Army!

But under such circumstances, why would the Japanese army take such actions now? Wouldn't it be nice for everyone to live in peace and harmony?

But since the Japanese army had made a gesture of fighting, the Soviet army could not be cowed. They quickly raised the level of alert and mobilized troops intensively.

Chen Shanhe was looking at the conditions on both sides to see if they could fight on their own without provocation.

But after waiting for two days, it became clear that this was not possible.

Moreover, he could not allow both parties to have enough time to cool off, because although what he did was very directional, any staff with a little bit of brain would be able to guess that it was a provocation.

Therefore, he could not give Japan and the Soviet Union enough time to calm down. Since the tension in troop deployment has escalated, a war should begin.

If they are unwilling to go to war, then he, Chen Shanhe, has the responsibility to help them make this determination!

This is also Chen Shanhe's responsibility and obligation. Therefore, when a senior officer of the Japanese army arrived at the Cihigou position to inspect, after a Mosin Nagant gunshot, the highest commander of the Japanese army here, the Japanese Kwantung Army,

The 1st Division, which was transferred to the Pacific at that time, stayed in the northeast of the 57th Infantry Sakura Regiment. The commander of the 57th Infantry Sakura Regiment, Shinichi Kiken, was killed by a Soviet sniper.

At the border where the Japanese and Soviet armies were deployed, the captain of an infantry regiment was already the largest officer.

At this time, the deputy commander of the 57th Infantry Sakura Regiment of the 1st Division of the Japanese Kwantung Army, which was left in the northeast, took the top spot.

Then he issued his first order after taking office, the 57th Infantry Sakura Regiment launched a counterattack against the Soviet army across the board!

At the junction of the military deployments of the two sides, there were even people standing guard face to face in the past. Because they had previously signed a non-aggression treaty between Japan and the Soviet Union, their military deployments were quite close to each other before.

Even though the two sides had raised the alert level before, they did not put much distance between them.

At this time, the attack order given by the acting commander of the 57th Sakura Regiment, who had just taken the lead, caught the Soviet army off guard.

When the Japanese army heard the news that their commander had been shot dead by a Soviet sniper, they were filled with rage. They didn't hesitate at all and just pushed him forward.

On the one hand, the Japanese army took action suddenly, and on the other hand, the Soviet army was caught off guard and did not even expect that the Japanese army would dare to take action so quickly.

Because the Soviet army had already planned to send people to the Japanese Kwantung Army headquarters to find out what happened.

But now, is this because the Japanese army wants to regain some confidence on land after failing to gain the upper hand against the Americans?

But no matter what the reason is, the fight has begun!

Both the Kwantung Army Headquarters and the Soviet Far East Command received reports from both sides on the battlefield.

The Japanese army pushed forward and directly occupied all the positions of the opponent's 998th Regiment. Of the more than 1,500 people in the 998th Regiment, less than a third of them escaped.

The battle between the 57th Regiment of the 2nd Brigade of the Japanese 1st Division and the 998th Regiment of the Soviet 1st Group Army instantly caused an explosion that reached its limit.

All the Japanese and Soviet troops who heard the news were worried that the other side would strike first. After receiving the news but not receiving the order, they had already launched an attack on the other side.

In fact, to be honest, at this time, no one can say who launched the attack first. Anyway, the fight has already begun.

As far as the Soviet army is concerned, although they have no time to open the Eastern Front battlefield now, the Japanese army is coming, and there is no point in holding back at this time.

The Far East Military Region Headquarters sent telegrams to the country and issued orders to its subordinates.

Since the Japanese want to start a war, then fight with them!

However, the Soviet army's battlefield on the western front was becoming tight, and there was not much support from the east.

Therefore, since we have decided to fight, we must fight quickly and use all our strength to repel the Japanese attack. The attack will scare the Japanese army and prevent the Japanese army from making another move.

Unfortunately, the Japanese army thought the same way. Since the Soviet army wanted to provoke and get a share of the Eastern Front battlefield, the Kwantung Army did not have the strength to fight a war of attrition or a protracted war with the Soviet army.

They could only do their best to destroy the illusions of the Soviet army and let them understand that the Kwantung Army was actually a hard walnut that they could not eat.

Only when they truly understand that they cannot defeat the Kwantung Army will they stop having such inappropriate thoughts.

If possible, it is best to use all your strength to defeat the Soviet Far Eastern Army in one blow.

Both sides have such thoughts. To be honest, everyone has such thoughts at this time. If it were some time later or some time ago, there would not be such a coincidence. For the Soviet army in this time period,

For the Japanese army, it was a very delicate period of time.

They can't afford to fight in the Far East or the Northeast, but now the atmosphere is so high that it's impossible not to fight.

Therefore, we can only win a quick victory and achieve victory in one battle. Both sides thought so, so a great war began.

The Japanese army in Liaodong had thousands of aircraft and 700,000 to 800,000 soldiers. If you include those south of the Yalu River, there were more than 1.2 million soldiers.

To be honest, compared with the Soviet army, the strength of the Japanese army is really far behind.

When the Soviet-German war broke out on June 22, 1941, the Soviet army stationed 700,000 standing troops in the Far East, equipped with 10,000 artillery pieces, more than 3,000 tanks, more than 400 aircraft and more than 90 ships.

After the outbreak of the Soviet-German War, war mobilization was carried out rapidly in the Far East. Many reserve forces were incorporated into the army. The number of Soviet troops in the Far East began to surge. By the time of the Pearl Harbor Incident, the number of Soviet troops in the Far East had grown to 1.34 million.

But soon most of the elites from the Far East were transferred to the European battlefield, and that batch must have numbered hundreds of thousands of people.

Since then, although the number of Soviet troops in the Far East has remained above 1 million, and at least there were more than 1.1 million, most of these personnel were converted militiamen, and the elite have long been transferred to the European battlefield.

A lot of artillery was also pulled in, the number of tanks remained at more than 2,000, the number of aircraft remained at more than 2,000 or 3,000, and there were more ships.

In this battle, no one can fight together, everyone wants to finish the battle, and everyone wants to inflict pain on the other side so that the other side can't think of anything else.

The Japanese army, which struck first, took advantage of it. To be honest, the Soviet army did not know how to fight!

No matter which battle we look at, the Soviet army will never fight.

For example, in the war with Finland, nearly 800,000 people fought against Finland, resulting in heavy casualties.

Finland's input of troops is: 346,500 men, 32 tanks, and 145 to 287 aircraft.

The Soviet army invested 760,578 troops, 2,514 to 6,541 tanks, and 3,253 aircraft.

But what about the result?

Approximately 26,000 Finnish troops were killed and 43,500 wounded.

A total of 71,214 Soviet soldiers were killed in action, 39,369 were missing, 16,292 died in hospital due to injuries and illnesses, 188,671 were injured, 17,867 suffered from frostbite, and 58,370 were sick, totaling 391,783 people. Another 5,600 people were captured by the Finnish army.

This casualty situation is a comparison between 70,000 people and 400,000 people.

The war with Germany resulted in generations of casualties. Although Germany lost, its population losses and casualties were not as serious as those of the Soviet army.

After the start of World War II, we fought three battles with the Japanese army. On the surface, the Soviet army won, but in fact it was the Soviet army that suffered more heavy losses.

Moreover, given the advantages in equipment, quantity, and numbers, the losses were much greater than those of the Japanese army!

Even in history, it was said that 1.5 million Soviet troops destroyed 600,000 Japanese troops and captured 600,000 Japanese troops, but not a single big city was captured. They surrendered on their own initiative.

If it was really a total destruction, how could there be more than 600,000 prisoners?

This was just the Soviet army declaring war and fighting after seeing the Americans drop an atomic bomb.

What's more, the current Soviet army is not the Soviet army that transferred equipment from Europe after the European battlefield was completed in the past four or five years.

But no matter what, both sides fought fiercely.

Moreover, if the Japanese army really wants to go all out, they have not yet reached the level where they will be disheartened and have no fighting spirit after being dropped an atomic bomb in the future.

What's more, in the original history, all the elites of the Kwantung Army in 1945 had been drawn to fight in the Pacific War. Most of those who remained in the Liaodong region were already in the second echelon, with only a small part of the main force.

But things are different now. The deployment has not yet been completed, and the current Kwantung Army can still fight.

Moreover, the Soviet Far East Force in 1944 was not as large as it would be in the future.

Anyway, they fought hard, and their brains were knocked out. One of the shells almost hit Chen Shanhe, who was watching the battle.

This made Chen Shanhe feel lucky to see the crater that was as big as half a basketball court.

Fortunately, he had better luck, otherwise, it would have been explained here!

However, if I don't use my face now, I feel so uncomfortable.

Therefore, he once again sneaked into a certain headquarters of the Japanese army, and swaggered to kill 70% to 80% of the people in the headquarters, so that his face would appear in this era.

Let the name of the Immortal Emperor be spread throughout history from now on.

Then he left. After provoking this war, no matter what the outcome was, it was the best outcome for him.

Far Eastern Soviet troops began to gather here from other places in a steady stream, and planes in the sky were bombing wildly every day.

The same goes for the Japanese army. Their divisions south of the Yalu River also began to move north, and their aircraft deployed south of the Yalu River also began to support the Northeastern Front.

Therefore, when Chen Shanhe left, the battle between the Japanese and Soviet armies had reached a fever pitch.

There is no lack of provocation from him.

And the role of the appearance of the Immortal Emperor.

To be honest, if the reputation of the Immortal Emperor is not spread on the Internet in the future, everyone responsible for recording history will have a responsibility.

If you carefully study the history of the Japanese-Soviet War in the Far East, someone will find that there is a person who has been interspersed in it, and may be the trigger that caused this war.

That is the Immortal Emperor!

Of course, for Chen Shanhe, the Immortal Emperor was already a thing of the past. It was just that he suddenly had a bad taste.
