It is said that Japanese men have the potential of shrews in their bones, and I am afraid that it is a false rumor, but at present, these four Japanese division commanders, the thunderous people's cousins, confirm that this statement is true, and it is also eye-opening at the same time, it is even more shocking!

A telegram from Lieutenant General Kikuchi, commander of the First Army of the Japanese Far East Dispatch Army, annoyed the four division commanders who were immersed in a great victory and full of thoughts about awarding meritorious service awards.

So, in the dignified headquarters of the First Class of the Imperial Japanese Army, there was such a grotesque scene, the four epaulettes, the Lieutenant General with two shining gold stars, without the majesty of the Imperial Japanese general, opened his mouth, the swear words, gushing, "What a fucking bullshit telegram, and ordered our Third Army not to move, I bah!" Himself was the commander-in-chief of the Far Eastern campaign on the spot, drawing a nose on a piece of paper, what a big face! ”

The small staff officers and orderly soldiers of the headquarters looked at the four lieutenant generals in amazement, where they were jumping and scolding the streets, probably in the life experience of these junior officers and ordinary soldiers, they had never seen such a shocking and fierce scene.

Lieutenant General Haruhiko listened to the reaction of his division commanders to Lieutenant General Kikuchi's telegram, so strong, not to mention how happy he was, if Lieutenant General Kikuchi accused himself of changing the combat orders of the dispatched army without authorization, Lieutenant General Haruhiko had nothing to say, and he also recognized this article, but. But he was calm from the bottom of his heart, no matter what he said, whether he won the battle or not, this is the guarantee of his invincible position, and His Excellency the commander of the dispatch army will not punish a general who won the battle because of this, so Lieutenant General Kikuchi wasted his efforts.

The First Army was in a hurry to pick peaches and grab credit, but the Third Army, which was little-known and known as a weak brigade, stole the limelight. Lieutenant General Haruhiko can also understand, after all, in the campaign order of the dispatch army, the task of attacking the fifteenth army of the rank is the responsibility of the first army. He belongs to the credit of robbing the First Army, and it is reasonable for Lieutenant General Kikuchi to be angry. Put it on yourself. It won't be comfortable either.

However, what made Lieutenant General Haruhiko the most unbearable was Lieutenant General Kikuchi's tone towards his subordinates, and his tough order that the Third Army should not act rashly. This is too much, the Third Army is not a subordinate unit of the First Army, and I, Haruhiko, am not your subordinate of Kikuchi, on an equal footing. Less big tail wolves!

In terms of qualifications, positions, military ranks, backstage and background, how much is my Haruhiko no worse than you, what to pretend? What right do you have to point fingers, to treat your subordinates in a tone, send such a bullshit telegram, the more Lieutenant General Haruhiko thinks about it, the more aggrieved he becomes, if it weren't for his self-respecting identity, he would definitely join the ranks of the four division commanders, and scolded Lieutenant General Kikuchi, let's make a fuss first!

I also saved myself from holding back my own secret wounds, the four division commanders were so full of energy, they scolded for more than 20 minutes, and there was no heavy scolding, the language was rich, the words were accurate, and it was breathtaking, those junior officers were eye-opening, and they also learned a lot of scolding essence, probably, Lieutenant General Haruhiko also felt that it was a little too much, "Hmm! He let out a dry cough.

Sure enough, the commanders of the three divisions immediately shut up, and their eyes turned to Lieutenant General Haruhiko, "Gentlemen, just being angry can't solve the problem, according to you, how do we treat this telegram from Lieutenant General Kikuchi?" He asked with a heavy expression.

In fact, in his heart, Lieutenant General Haruhiko has already had a plan, and in one sentence, "Fuck it, just treat it as a bullshit and ignore him!" However, he must know that the thoughts of the commanders of the four divisions under his command, don't look at the fierceness of the scolding, in case he moves the real chapter, all of them become shrinking turtles, and let himself and Lieutenant General Kikuchi fight in the ring, if one or two of them covet their position as the commander of the Third Army, and then make some small moves behind their backs, then they will be in a difficult situation.

At the previous military meeting, the first division commander to attack Lieutenant General Haruhiko was a cannon barrel temper, with some background in the base camp, and also the backbone of the four division commanders. ”

Lieutenant General Haruhiko pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Oh, Oshima-kun, why do you have such thoughts?" ”

The division commander named Oshima shouted angrily, "Your Excellency Commander, the reason is clear, do you delay the fighters, five hours is enough time for the Soviet Army to overturn the advantageous position and rebuild the defensive line, once that happens, the advantage that our Third Army has achieved before will be wiped out, not to mention, his mother's First Army is coming up, can it fight better than our Third Army?" ”

"Therefore, the department thinks that Lieutenant General Kikuchi, whose head was kicked by a donkey, is a bastard who doesn't know four or six, we don't need to pay attention to that bastard at all, or according to your previous deployment, commander, take advantage of the situation to attack, and don't give the Soviet army a chance to breathe, not to mention, our troops are chasing the Soviet army, it is impossible to stop and not fight, so please ask Your Excellency the commander, give an order, once the dispatch army headquarters investigates it, we should advance and retreat with you!"

Lieutenant General Haruhiko was naturally very happy in his heart, but he still calmed down and continued to ask, "The other gentlemen, I don't know what opinions you have?" ”

The commanders of the other three divisions stepped forward, "clicked" one of them upright, and said in unison: "The rank and other divisions agree with Oshima-kun, as soon as the fighter plane is lost, we will be ashamed of the trust of His Majesty the Emperor, please do not hesitate to give an order, Your Excellency the commander!" ”

"Yo-!" Lieutenant General Haruhiko shouted happily, "I order all units of the Third Army to attack on the front line, closely pursue the fleeing Soviet Army, fight for the total annihilation of the Soviet Fifteenth Army, and create a greater brilliant record for the Third Army. ”

As a result, the four divisions of the Third Army of the Japanese Far East Dispatch Army pressed down on the entire front, like hungry wolves smelling of blood, chasing and fighting the retreating Soviet troops, and did not give the 15th Army a chance to gain a foothold and take a breath.

Lieutenant General Asilov, commander of the 15th Army, in the face of the Japanese army's surging sea offensive, lost the first move, and did not even have a chance to turn back and organize the blocking troops, so he had to take the remnants and retreat all the way, but not in the direction of Chita, where the other two corps of the Japanese Far East Dispatch Army were pressing head-on, and the direction of the defeat and retreat of the 15th Army could only be the direction of the Far Eastern battlefield where the main forces of the Far Eastern Front were located.

A few days later, Lieutenant General Asilov's 15th Army, with less than 30,000 men left, finally saw its own troops, and after a few days of pursuit, more than 40,000 soldiers became ghosts or prisoners of the Japanese army, and six or seven commanders at the division commander level were killed and captured.

Lieutenant General Haruhiko, who has been following the actions of the troops, has always maintained a high degree of sobriety in his mind, he knows that he can no longer chase it, and the front is where the main force of the Soviet Far Eastern Front is located, although all the officers and men of the Third Army are like a rainbow of fighting spirits, and they can fight hard, and they can only have more than 100,000 troops in one army, and they can shake hundreds of thousands of Soviet troops head-on, which is similar to going to death by themselves, and they will accept it when they see it.

So, Haruhiko himself gave the order to retreat, and the 100,000 soldiers of the Japanese Third Army wiped the blood on the bayonet and turned back to the direction of the Aldan River triumphantly.

One thing is that on the east bank of the Aldan River, Lieutenant General Yoshio Kikuchi, the commander of the First Army, who is waiting for him with great momentum, and another thing is to deal with more than 40,000 Soviet prisoners of war at once.

The Third Army's record on the east bank of the Aldan River has already spread within the Far East Dispatch Army, and when the strength is slightly inferior to that of the Soviet Army, and more than 80 percent of the soldiers are all new recruits, they defeated a fully armed army of the Soviet Army and annihilated most of them.

Moreover, according to a close friend who served in the Dispatch Army Headquarters, His Royal Highness Prince Jaehito, Commander-in-Chief of the Far East Campaign, also praised the Third Army for its unexpectedly brilliant achievements, and on more than one occasion at high-level military meetings, he used the Third Army and Haruhiko-kun as an example to talk about things!

Being able to enter the eyes of His Royal Highness Prince Zaihito is naturally the happiest thing, "Mio Kikuchi, you are just angry and complaining, what can you do with me?" Lieutenant General Haruhiko thought proudly.

As for how to deal with the more than 40,000 Soviet prisoners of war, it is simpler, the command of the dispatch army has already ordered to dispose of them on the spot, and no one is left, so on the east bank of the Aldan River, the gunfire that has been calmed down for several days has sounded again, but this time it is not a battle, but the shooting of Soviet prisoners of war, the gunfire has been sounding for more than two days, and the bodies of more than 40,000 Soviet prisoners of war have covered the ice of the Aldan River that has not yet thawed, and in another month or so, these corpses will float along the Aldan River to the distance.

The red blood of more than 40,000 Soviet soldiers soaked all over the snow-covered Far East, and while the Soviet 15th Army was defeated and retreated, the 18th Army on the right flank, and the 21st Group Army, which was rapidly approaching Chita, were also beaten back by the superior forces of the Japanese Far East Dispatch Army and the Korean garrison army, and even suffered more troop losses than the 15th Army.

In the city of Khabarovsk in the Far East, in the General Headquarters of the Far Eastern Campaign, Prince Jaehion was personally preparing a telegram with only one sentence: "Brother Huang, the encirclement of the Soviet Far Eastern Front has officially formed!" ”
