The abnormal decision of Han Yunhua's subordinates made General Umezu Miji very entangled, and he did not believe that Han Yunhua would foolishly put 200,000 troops into the mouth of the Kwantung Army. You must know that in terms of the current mobility of the Inner Mongolia Military Region, once the Kwantung Army pours out, the outcome of this 200,000-strong army is likely to be a rout, and the rapid march usually used by the Eighth Route Army is simply unable to rescue this unit stationed in Suidong.

But Umezu did not dare to make any moves, because he smelled a hint of conspiracy from it. Not long ago, the Japanese army cracked a case in which a small Soviet force infiltrated North Manchuria and provided weapons assistance to the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation.

This incident reminded General Umezu Mijiro that the Chinese army was not without a threat at all, and the Kwantung Army could flank the troops of the Inner Mongolia Military Region together with the North China Front, so Han Yunhua's troops could also choose to flank the Kwantung Army with the Soviet army. With the combat effectiveness of the Inner Mongolia Military Region now, it is really possible to do such a thing, looking at all the things that Han Yunhua has done since he entered the sight of the imperial army and has done so far is to constantly expand his territory, and his "greed" is no less than the polar bear's desire for land in the north.

Take a closer look at the fact that when this bug first came to Saibei, it quietly occupied a barren hill, and it had a bit of a bandit's beard. However, in the blink of an eye, the imperial army had control of a county, and then it was out of control, and now it actually controls hundreds of thousands of square kilometers of land, and almost all the land in Suiyuan, Chahar, Rehe, and Hebei provinces is under its control.

However, after careful analysis, it can be seen that Han Yunhua's department has almost exhausted all its development potential, and now although Han Yunhua's department has a large territory, it is surrounded by government troops in China, and to the south is Yan Xishan's old thing's Jin Sui army, everyone knows how heavy that old thing is for his family's one-third of an acre, and Han Yunhua's department is absolutely not allowed to develop south. Going southwest is the territory of the Ma Jiajun in Ningxia and Qinghai, although the Communist Party hates the Ma Jiajun to the core, and is eager to immediately annihilate the old army of these two bandits and warlords on the spot, but the current environment does not allow Han Yunhua's troops to start a war with Erma. Therefore, if Han Yunhua's department wants to develop, it can only develop in the two directions of Northeast and Shandong, and General Umezu Mijiro knows very well how strong the imperial army in Shandong is now, although the strength of the North China Front is not comparable to the Kwantung Army for the time being.

However, the territory controlled by the North China Front Army was much smaller than that of the Kwantung Army, and there were more than 200,000 elite imperial troops stationed in Shandong alone, and there were also more than 100,000 imperial troops. Coupled with the command level of General Okamura Ningji, it is impossible for Han Yunhua's department to make a big breakthrough in Shandong in a short time. Therefore, the direction of Han Yunhua's division is only to expand to the northeast region, if Han Yunhua's department really reaches an agreement with the Soviet Union's Far East Defense Forces Command, then the situation of the Kwantung Army will be really dangerous.

General Umezu Mijiro felt a great sense of crisis, and he asked the staff officers of the Kwantung Army Headquarters to make a sand table deduction, and the result was that if the Inner Mongolia Military Region's Suidong Military Division launched a full-scale attack on the Kwantung Army based on its current strength, the odds of victory were less than 10. But if you add the resistance forces in the northeast and the hundreds of thousands of troops in eastern Hebei to attack Liaoning, the odds can rise to about 30. However, if the Soviet Red Army went south to enter the war, even if it did not participate in the war, as long as it provoked some small incidents in the border areas, the chances of victory for the Chinese army could rise to about 50.

The most important thing is that if the Soviet Red Army and the Mongolian troops went directly south from Heilongjiang, coupled with the siege of Han Yunhua's troops from all sides, even if the Kwantung Army had 700,000 troops, it would be in vain, and the operational staff officers of the Kwantung Army Staff Department came to the conclusion that the Kwantung Army would definitely be defeated.

Although General Umezu Mijiro is unwilling to accept such a result, the facts are in front of us, the Chinese army is no longer the Chinese army of a few years ago, and there are hundreds of thousands of people at every turn.

After thinking about it for a while, General Umezu Mijiro decided to temporarily transfer two divisions from the eastern Hebei front to return to Shenyang for rest and recuperation, and at the same time add an infantry brigade to the Tongliao and Shuangliao fronts. The 53rd Division, stationed in Harbin, immediately went north to the Ussuri River to reinforce the coastal defense troops in case of a surprise attack by Soviet troops. …,

The Kwantung Army's series of moves made the command of the Soviet Far East Defense Forces very nervous for a while, although the Soviet Union now ostensibly has a lot of troops stationed in the Far East. However, Ivanov himself knew that the combat effectiveness of the Soviet Red Army in the current Far Eastern Military District was not necessarily able to defeat the Japanese monkeys, and the Far Eastern Red Army at this time could not compete with the Japanese army in terms of numbers or logistical supplies.

Most importantly, spring is about to begin, and evil Germany will launch a new round of attacks on Moscow, the capital of the Soviet Union, and not long ago the Soviet High Command transferred more than half of the troops in Siberia to the Moscow front, and informed him, the commander of the Far Eastern Military District, that he was ready to support the European theater at any time.

Ivanov was most afraid of going to war with the Japanese army at this time, and according to past experience, the Japanese armed forces stationed in northeast China were indeed very strong in battle, although the weapons and ammunition, especially heavy weapons, were much worse than those of the Soviet Union, but they were enough to pose a threat to the Soviet Union.

Ivanov was not a pedantic man, he was well aware of what happened to the defeated officers, and he was well aware of the madness of the great leader now. It was not uncommon for officers and soldiers who had lost a decisive battle to be executed in the Soviet army, not to mention that he was a small commander of a major general, even if it was a lieutenant general, a general, or even a marshal. The great leader ordered the mass shooting of soldiers and the execution of generals put a lot of pressure on Ivanov, and as far as he knew, the high command had ordered the 24th Army to shoot more than 600 Red Army soldiers at a time in order to stop the soldiers from escaping. Not long ago, the High Command issued an order to inform the whole army, and the Moscow Military Court sentenced four Soviet Unions
