Chapter 1137 Everything is ready
Because the planned "September 18th Incident" was very successful, Ishihara Kanir transformed into a hero in Japan and was known as the number one military strategist in Japan.
After becoming famous in one battle, and later, with the progress of the "Soldiers and Personnel Control" after the "226 Mutiny" incident, the commanders fully grasped the situation, and Ishihara also ushered in the most glorious period of his life. He was promoted to Minister of Operations, only one step away from Deputy Chief of Staff.
However, due to the usual "good style" of Kanir Ishihara's low emotional intelligence, sarcastic tongue, and other "good style", he made him very poor in popularity and was very unpopular. He was gradually neglected and idle, and was transferred back to China to serve as the commander of the Hewu Fortress.
The Hewu Fortress is actually just a false title. The commander is usually a lieutenant general. Being the commander of this fortress means that his military career is about to end.
In another time and space, Ishihara Kanir was rushed from the commander of the 16th Division to the Tsurumi Fortress as commander because of his bad relationship with Hideki Tojo. He was forced to retire from active service a year later.
In the current time and space, due to the butterfly effect, Ishihara Kanir was lucky to have a turnaround and was transferred to the prominent position of commander of the Kanto Army, which led to the current situation.
After these twists and turns, Ishihara Kanir has had a rich life experience and his emotional intelligence has finally begun to be launched. Although the country is easy to change and the nature is difficult to change, and the poisonous tongue is difficult to avoid completely, it is much better than when he was young.
In the combat room behind Ishihara Kanir, dozens of Japanese combat staff were nervously doing the final chess performance, and were recalculating how likely it would be to win the Far East military adventure that Te was about to launch.
At this time, the German and Italian coalition forces and the British and American coalition forces fought hard to distinguish. In the United States, it provided crazy assistance at all costs and put aircraft, cannons and tanks into the North African battlefield for no money, which made the technical and equipment density of the Allied forces in Egypt reach an extremely terrifying level.
However, the extremely powerful Rommel Legion was troubled by logistics supplies and was difficult to maintain a high-intensity offensive momentum. At present, it can only temporarily stop in front of the Suez Canal.
On the battlefield on the Eastern Front, the German tanks also became difficult to move forward with the desperate resistance of the strong and resilient fighting nations. Although they still had the initiative, they were eager to completely destroy the Soviet Union.
At the same time, in order to survive and to block the crushing attack of German chariots, the Soviet Union tried its best to recruit troops from various types of troops, constantly arming men and women to the front-line battlefield.
Among them, the Far East has become the key target of hair plucking, gradually reducing from the previous peak of 1.44 million to less than 500,000, and the number of aircraft, tanks and cannons has also been reduced to an extremely low level.
In this way, Ishihara Kanir has infinite room for imagination and performance.
Especially after Ishihara Kanir secretly stored a large number of aircraft, tanks, cannons, self-propelled artillery and other technical equipment, a risky heart could no longer be held back.
As early as a few months ago, Ishihara Kanir began to organize the combat staff of the General Staff to conduct military flag deductions.
The result of multiple deductions is that only when the troops in the Soviet Far East Military Region dropped to less than 500,000 people would the Japanese Kwantung Army have the possibility of victory.
Moreover, the possibility of winning is only halfway, which means only about 50%, rather than what we usually call sure to win.
This morning, the Japanese Special High School sent the latest information on the Soviet army's strength and configuration in the Far East. This time, as Ishihara Kanir eagerly hoped, the total strength of the Soviet army's Far East was reduced to less than 500,000, and many of them were rest troops withdrawn from the front-line battlefield.
Although this is very risky, the Soviet Union has no choice. First of all, the positive pressure given by the German tanks is too great. Secondly, the demise of the US Pacific Fleet has led to the loss of the strategic position of the major artery in the strategic rear of the Far East.
There was no need for the Soviet Union to maintain a total force of more than one million troops in the Far East as in the original history.
"In order to fight against Su, I have been secretly preparing for two years, and it is time to see the conclusion. In any case, this move must be continued."
Retracting his thoughts, Ishihara Kanir took a deep breath, then turned toward the war room with a resolute expression.
At this moment, a sudden sound of rapid footsteps sounded in front of me, and then Ishihara Kanir saw the Chief of Staff of the Kanto Army, Shinichi Yoshimoto jog in a hurry.
"Yimoto-kun!"
Ishihara Kanir suddenly shuddered, knowing that the result must be a result, so he immediately asked anxiously: "What is the result?"
"Your Excellency General!"
Yoshimoto Sato stretched his eyebrows and his eyes shone. His excitement and joy could no longer be suppressed. He said heavily: "Six-50% and there is a full 6.50% chance of winning!"
"Yoxi! Great! Enough, totally enough! Finally everything is ready!"
Ishihara Kaner waved his fist very hard, and a big stone in his heart landed on the ground, and his bones all over his body were lighter, just to fly into the sky.
Although Ishihara Kanir had made up his mind before that, no matter how much chance of victory the military flag was deduced, even if it was less than 50%, he would, as planned, press the war start button the morning after tomorrow to carry out a large-scale military adventure in the Far East.
But at this moment he could not help but be excited and ecstatic when he could hear this good news.
Although Ishihara Kanir is more conservative in strategy and likes to plan and then act, he has always emphasized that the potential of war is linked to economic strength, but he is extremely radical in specific tactics!
Before the September 18th Incident, the Japanese Kwantung Army had more than 150,000 regular troops in Manchuria, plus more than 10,000 soldiers in rural areas (i.e. reserves) and police, with a total force of about 27,000.
Although the Northeast Army mobilized 180,000 elite troops into the pass after the Central Plains War, there were still about 205,000 troops in the Northeast, of which 165,000 were regular troops.
The ratio of the regular troops of China and Japan is 11:1, and the ratio of the total troops is 7.5:1.
In terms of weapons and equipment, the gap between the two sides is even greater. The Northeast Army not only has thousands of artillery pieces, a complete arsenal production line, but also has 262 combat aircraft and about 30,000 tons of naval ships!
The result of the war chess performance at that time was that the Japanese Kwantung Army launched an attack in the three northeastern provinces, and its chances of winning were no more than 10%.
However, even in this situation where victory is almost impossible, Ishihara Kanir was not afraid of it, but instead launched the "September 18th Incident" that shocked China and the world!
This battle made Ishihara Kanir famous and made him famous in one battle. The entire northeastern territory fell completely in just a few months, and 30 million northeastern compatriots fell into a 14-year colonial rule.
Now, the Kanto Army General Staff has reached a chance of winning of up to 6.50%. Ishihara Kanir naturally expanded instantly and completely made up his mind!
Chapter completed!
