Chapter 440 Ding Wei continues to fool people. I think you, Arnold, have the fate of being the comma
The process of reorganizing into the independent 109th Motorized Infantry Division was very quick. Anov urgently needed to end the confrontation between the two sides, withdraw elite troops, and be ready to engage in new battles at any time.
This front has the least number of troops, less than 20.
Compared with the Trans-Baikal Front and the First Front, both of them have about 50 troops.
The Trans-Baikal Front was easier to deal with, as that was where Anov made his fortune, and the officers in the First Army were all his old subordinates.
The First Front Army is indeed the biggest competitor.
The chief of staff of the front and a strong contender for commander of the Second Front.
When choosing between two options, it depends on the probability of both sides winning.
Anov, who had just been promoted to Chief of Staff of the Front, did not seem to have much experience.
According to the information revealed by the top leaders, they hope that Lieutenant General Kru, the Chief of Staff of the First Front, will be promoted to a higher position.
This is not good news; it is truly a situation that is completely devastating.
Arnoff’s power struggle skills were too poor. After learning the gossip, the first thing he did was to ask Ding Wei for help.
Arnov, caught in a power struggle, is like a gambler. Having staked everything, he is willing to grasp any straw to save his life.
"My brother, don't panic, stay calm. This is just a rumor, it hasn't been officially announced yet. I suggest adding fuel to the fire in the border region and causing internal chaos, similar to the situation of the Second Front Army."
Anov was a little silent. In order to become a senior general of the Second Front, he personally destroyed a motorized infantry brigade.
According to Ding Wei's suggestion, at least one motorized infantry division of the First Front Army would be destroyed.
The game gets bigger and bigger, and even though he is a rookie, he still wants to be an official. Isn't that infuriating?
A person's fate is determined by heaven. There is no way to change it except to be cruel and ruthless.
At present, there are some of Ding Wei's people in Amur and Autonomous Prefecture. I dare not say that they are in control of the situation, but they at least have half of the say.
Next, it is necessary to take some action in the border areas.
While the firing was going on on the peninsula, the First Front’s mission to wipe out the guerrillas did not cease at all, and in the mountains and forests, men from both sides fought for their lives.
The old Japanese soldiers' fighting ability is not bad. Although they are short, they are very decisive in fighting with bayonets.
On the contrary, it was the second-rate troops of the Far East Army that couldn't hold on.
After the artillery fire, there was nothing else. There was no order or means.
Tanks couldn't go up the mountain, and neither could armored vehicles. They had to rely solely on infantry to blockade the forest, and in the end it was still a fight between infantry and infantry.
Bullets were fired with a bang, shell casings were scattered all over the ground, and tree trunks were pierced by heavy machine guns. On average, 2 bullets could not kill a single person.
This is guerrilla warfare, this is mountain warfare.
There were many tunnels and trenches dug on the hills as far as the eye could see. In terms of the ability to dig fortifications, the Japanese were among the top three in the world.
Even the Eagles have suffered at their hands.
During the Pacific War, every island needed to be filled with artillery fire.
The current mountain warfare is also a headache for the Far Eastern Army, as there is only one group of people on the hill.
Easy to hide, easy to dodge.
I hid in the cracks in the rocks and couldn't find it.
They are not afraid of artillery or aircraft, and they will suddenly launch sneak attacks from time to time.
The conclusion had long been drawn about the Far Eastern Army, that it did not have the ability to restrain guerrilla warfare, and that the tall and strong Russians could only launch an armored cluster charge.
The old topic is still the organizational ability, discipline and combat effectiveness of second-rate troops.
It is undeniable that the Russians have elite armored divisions and tank divisions that can stand on their own.
But we must also face the fact that among the Far Eastern Army, very few have first-rate combat effectiveness, and most of them are second-rate troops.
Needless to say, military discipline was bad, and asking them to cross mountains and rivers to carry out encirclement and suppression was extremely inefficient.
They only know one way of fighting, which is to use a meat grinder. They don't know how to adapt, and their emphasis is on recklessness.
This method may be applicable when facing large-scale military operations, but it is obviously a drop in intelligence when facing guerrilla warfare in the mountains.
The combat effectiveness of Russian soldiers after the war was no different from that before the war, because the most elite ones were either killed in battle or blocked the western front line.
The troops left in the Far East seem to be more than one million, but in fact they are like a handful of clay chickens and dogs.
They lack the ability to fight smart battles and are best at competing in terms of numbers of people, artillery, and tanks. There are almost no examples of the weak defeating the strong.
The First Front Army did have more troops, more artillery, and more aircraft, and they were constantly searching the mountains and forests for the Japanese.
Once found, they immediately launched indiscriminate bombing.
Aerial bombs exploded continuously on the hilltop.
Ding Wei was happy to see this situation, the Japanese's combat effectiveness has improved. This is reflected in two aspects. One is that a lot of veterans were brought in from Yinghua and secretly stuffed into the mountainous area.
In addition, the communication equipment was upgraded to facilitate communication between the guerrilla forces and Ding Wei's secret support for them.
The shells were fired one after another, and they were all real gold and silver.
The harder the First Front Army fought, the happier the Manchurian military industry was.
Where could the ammunition be replenished? Apart from the stocks in the arsenal, it could only be purchased from nearby Manchuria.
When the cannon is fired, there is a thousand taels of gold.
The purpose was not to fight the Japanese, but to generate income for Ding Wei's military industry.
Just as Anov's side had calmed down, he heard a rumor that large-scale guerrilla activities had occurred in the area under the jurisdiction of the First Front.
The guerrilla forces' weapons and equipment have been strengthened, with the emergence of 60mm cannons, rocket launchers and other weapons.
It poses a threat to armored vehicles and tanks.
Moreover, there are more than 6 troops stationed in the mountainous area, which is the most powerful and largest group of troops.
After all, it is close to the sea, and it is very easy to transport veterans from the sea and throw them over.
The aircraft carrier merchant ship purchased by Mu Liancheng is equipped with seaplanes that can transport people here from the coastal areas.
In addition, the mountainous area here is complex and distributed in a long line.
Fires broke out everywhere, and the warehouses and military bases of the First Front were frequently attacked.
Planes took off one after another and bombed the combat sites.
Even though the fighting on the peninsula is fierce, the quality of the battle is still in the border area.
Arnov was the most shocked. When did Ding Wei become able to mobilize nearly 10 people to fight at will, especially in the Far East? How did he get these people here?
Then there is no need for him to worry about it. Merchant ships, river ferrying, prisoners, etc. have already gathered about 20 armed people in the Far East.
In addition to the continuous deployment of troops, the combat force has always been maintained at more than 10.
The First Front Army launched several encirclement and suppression campaigns, killing or capturing more than 1.2 people, but the remaining Japanese devils still gathered in the mountains and forests to fight.
Don't underestimate the willpower of the Japanese. Five years have passed, and there are still many Japanese guarding the islands in the south like savages.
No matter how bad the situation here is, at least we can still have food to eat, and there are people who provide us with weapons and ammunition.
It is much better than the southern islands.
The Zhugzhur Mountains and the Sikhote-T mountains here are connected, forming two rich mountainous areas from north to south.
Not to mention 20 people, even if 200 million people were thrown in, it wouldn't make a single splash.
The two border regions together have an area of nearly one million square kilometers. If we throw two million people into it, will there be any splash?
