During the War of Resistance Against Japan: After being scattered at Cangyunling, he brought back a

The island nation's Kwantung Army must not be completely annihilated in the three provinces of Kwantung.

If they are completely annihilated, it will severely impact the empire's interests in China.

Where's Suzuki?

What's Suzuki doing now?

Then Mano suddenly turned his head to look at his deputy.

"General!"

"The remnants of Suzuki's forces have just suffered a general offensive from the Second Army Group of the New Third Front Army of China!"

"Eighty thousand men were completely routed by less than thirty thousand!"

"However, its movements are now leaning towards the editorial side!"

"We should be at most 30 kilometers away from our location!"

"It's a deep voice," the deputy said.

"Eighty thousand men were defeated by thirty thousand?"

Mano seemed not to have heard clearly, her face filled with disbelief.

"Yes, General!"

"However, according to our intelligence, another army group that was carrying out the mission with the New Third Front Army of China has already withdrawn from the main battlefield!"

"Their movements are unknown!"

"General! You said they could retreat..."

The deputy looked hesitant and said something.

After the order from the Marine Corps was issued, the general immediately assembled two army groups, which the Chinese side must have known.

The meaning is already quite clear.

Meanwhile, the Marine Corps explained that this campaign only needed to protect Suzuki and his party, and there was no need to engage in a large-scale battle with China.

But now it seems that even if our side wanted to take action, there might not be an opportunity.

Thirty kilometers is not a long distance, but for Suzuki's current unit, it is a significant distance.

This is a road to death.

Morale plummeted to rock bottom, and military supplies were also running low!

It's only a matter of time before it completely collapses.

My biggest fear is that they won't even make it to where they are now!

Moreover, the movements of another army group of the new three armies of China are still unclear.

"Notify me!"

"Issue Level 1 operational readiness!"

After a moment of contemplation, Manovsky spoke.

"General!"

"Without orders from the Marine Corps, if we act rashly..."

Manovsky had barely finished speaking when his deputy froze in shock!

It's important to understand that being here is completely different from taking the initiative. After all, our current location is on the border of China. If we rashly enter Chinese territory, the strategy would be entirely different!

"The Kwantung Army cannot be completely annihilated!"

Manovsky waved his hand to interrupt. ......

"General!"

"Is it really useful to leave behind such a remnant army?"

The deputy couldn't help but speak up.

Even if a large-scale battle had not yet taken place, the losses in supplies and military provisions would still have been substantial.

Never mind!

The key point is that island nations and empires have never been allies, much less allies.

Several years ago, the island nation had also launched a surprise attack on the empire's army, which he found utterly incomprehensible!

"You do not understand!"

"The three provinces of Kwantung still play a very important role for the Empire, and the Kwantung Army cannot be eliminated!"

"Secondly, the current state of China is beyond the Empire's predictions. Keeping this force will greatly benefit the Empire's development!"

Manovsky said in a deep voice.

The defeat of the Kwantung Army does not mean that the island nation has been defeated. As far as he knows, the island nation's dispatched army headquarters has gathered all its forces in an attempt to open up the mainland transportation line located in the heart of China.

Once the border is opened, the crisis on the Chinese Ocean battlefield can be resolved, and the island nation and the eagle nation will inevitably compete for supremacy on the Chinese Ocean battlefield once again.

However, none of this has anything to do with the empire.

The main point is that once the island nation strategy is completed, there will be sufficient troops to be transferred to the Kanto region.

At that time, the Kwantung region will become the arena for the new three armies of China and the island nation to fight against each other. For the empire, this is both an opportunity and a fortune.

Ultimately, regardless of who wins, the Empire will undoubtedly be the one to reap the greatest benefits.

Checks and balances are one thing, but the real problem is that China is in chaos!

After all, this so-called newly emerging Third Front Army of China has already made the Marine Corps take it seriously.

"Yes! General!"

The deputy then spoke up.

Just about to issue the order!

"Report! General Manovsky!"

"A large number of combat troops have arrived at the location of China!"

"Its troop strength exceeds that of an army group, and it consists entirely of tank and armored units!"

The communicator's voice suddenly rang out from behind.

Immediately afterward, a communications officer appeared before them. His face was pale from running so fast, but he couldn't hide the shock on his face!

"What did you say?"

"An all-tank and armored force?"

Manovsky seemed not to have heard clearly and suddenly stood up.

But the words had barely left his mouth!

boom!

Boom boom!

The roar of engines was accompanied by the sound of tracks scraping the ground.

I instinctively looked in the direction of the sound!

Manovsky froze on the spot!

Within sight!

A large number of massive steel structures came into view.

Leading the pack were rows and rows of tanks!

They were lined up in a row, although their models were much smaller than the Imperial tanks.

After all, the Empire's tanks are all super-heavy tanks, mostly weighing over thirty tons.

However, the effectiveness of such a powerful weapon in land warfare cannot be judged solely by its model; terrain mobility, survivability, and other factors are also important aspects of evaluating combat capability.

Our tanks are strong enough to withstand damage, but their mobility is definitely far inferior.

However, as long as they cannot penetrate the armor, there is no fear of any number of these tanks.

After a moment's thought, Manovsky analyzed the pros and cons!

Looking further ahead, behind the tanks are rows of armored vehicles.

All ready to go!

Then came a series of rocket launcher vehicles capable of high-speed movement.

Upon arrival, they quickly dispersed.

Each soldier was in their designated position, and the muzzles of the cannons rose at a visible speed, while soldiers in the rear were quickly calibrating and loading ammunition!
