Li Shang’s implication is that Muto was too anxious and didn’t think about a backup plan to deal with it. The front line was extended and the coalition forces were not effective. Now the two sides were in the forest, and the state of the largest concentration of troops in the two sides. If the Chinese armored battalion had all its strength to split the opponent’s front line, the Ukrainians were likely to retreat in dispersed... This is not good for the Muto Brigade that fought detours. How much time would it cost to clear the opponent’s scattered troops in the Kharkiv forest?

"Nani Lisang... When you came in just now, you yelled to use armored troops to advance along the main road... Why did the tone change in a few words? Major Li, after we tore the opponent's defense line apart, can we encircle the enemy through interlacing and detour?" The chief of staff of the brigade Takagi turned his eyes and spoke for Muto, the leader of the gloomy brigade. шwщFirst,

Several Japanese generals and Chinese major Wu Keren looked at the battalion commander of the armored 3rd Battalion in front of him in discomfort. Major General Muto looked even more unfair. Obviously, this guy felt that he had been offended. Li Shang was just a small Chinese major. Speaking of whether he really wanted to give orders, he had to execute them, and even if he didn't. As the front commander of the Kharkov Hedong detour troops, Major General Muto had the highest command of the battlefield commander.

Li Shang replied without changing his face and his heart was still beating, "I just mentioned the idea of ​​dispatching armored troops to attack along the main road. It was to plan to have a feint attack, not actually break through with all strength. The Ukrainians are quite afraid of our armored troops. If our offensive is too strong, the opponent may be determined to retreat!

But if we keep holding the armored troops in our hands and not sending them out, the other party will be uneasy and unsure. Therefore, I suggest that the Xiangmai attack on the front line, the multi-gate brigade gather to consolidate the existing positions. The 56th infantry brigade of Okamoto Company Ichiyasu should continue to escape south from the battle and make a greater roundabout encirclement, with the purpose of capturing the back of the 4th Ukrainian Infantry Division!"

"Well...Major Li, do you think the purpose of the armored troops entering the front line is to attack feint? That means...we are showing weakness to the Ukrainians?" The chief of staff of the brigade Takagi scratched his head and seemed to understand what the Chinese major in front of him wanted to do.

"Lisan... Okamoto's brigade is hard to support in the south, and the combat effectiveness of the 4th Ukrainian Infantry Division cannot be underestimated. If Okamoto's brigade retreated and continued to detour south, would it still be able to play a greater combat effectiveness than when it was full before?" The brigade commander Muto obviously did not think that Okamoto's team could continue to be used as a surprise soldier. The detour force of a brigade's 4th Ukrainian Infantry Division was almost ten times more powerful than that of his own. It would be impossible to brag about himself.

"Major General Muto, of course, the main force of the 4th Ukrainian Infantry Division was not caught. It is best to encircle the rear to cut off the opponent's retreat and attack the opponent's logistics and supplies troops. However, if the Ukrainians were indeed exhausted, then the Okamoto brigade would probably have taken over the remaining cannons of the opponent's artillery regiment without a single shot and an ammunition. This is much easier than to have Okamoto Nakasa lead more than 1,000 soldiers to hit the south wall of the opponent's main infantry regiment head-on... "

Although Li Shang was just a major battalion commander of the Chinese armored forces, his eyes turned around and his ideas for Major General Muto were not bad. Of course, the purpose of detouring to the flank was to attack the weak links of the enemy. In addition to the slightly weak force, the reason for the unfavorable combat of the Okamoto brigade was not limited in its frontal position of the 4th Division of the Ukrainian Infantry Division was not limited, which allowed the Ukrainians to free up two main regiments to attack the Okamoto brigade.

The first problem was that Okamoto's brigade encountered a large swamp during the first phase of the roundabout, and then the goal was exposed too early as the second hurdle. In fact, if Okamoto was smart, the artillery brigade in the rear of the coalition had not arrived at the scene, and the artillery brigade behind the coalition was mainly used to provide fire support to the Xiangmai brigade and the Duomen brigade on the left wing, the best choice for Okamoto's brigade should not be to attack the main force of the enemy's 4th infantry division, but should break away from contact and use the main force on the flank of the enemy's positions...

Muto and Takagi had also seen before that Okamoto's brigade could not deal with a main division like the 4th Ukrainian Infantry Division. However, when the 23rd Infantry Brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's brigade's bri

"Brig Commander, I think Major Li's suggestion is reasonable. Okamoto's brigade's mission is to carry the radio station to the flank of the Ukrainians. The focus is to cut off the retreat route south of the other direction and take advantage of the opportunity to attack the opponent's logistics and artillery positions. In the first stage, they rashly fought with the main force of the 4th infantry division of the opponent without artillery fire cover and air force support. The results of the battle are naturally unsatisfactory. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are kicked on the iron plate... I think it is a good choice to let them escape from contact with the Ukrainians and continue to penetrate south, making a bigger detour!

The more he thought about the brigade team chief of staff, the more he felt that the advice of the Chinese armored battalion commander in front of him was quite reasonable, and he couldn't help but turn around and suggest to his brigade commander.

"If you want to show weakness... Brigade Commander and Chief of Staff, I think we can order Xiangzhu Brigade and Duomen Brigade to retreat, let Jianchuan Brigade lead the radio station to detour north, Okamoto Brigade continues to encircle south, and open his pockets a little wider. Wouldn't this make it easier to create an illusion for the Ukrainians in front of us, believing that we had too much loss after the artillery battle and were unable to continue attacking them, and were preparing to shrink our troops and retreat?"

The captain of the 19th Infantry Regiment of the 19th Infantry Regiment, Kazushi Kazuki, who had never spoken, couldn't help but speak. The probability of this 19th Infantry Regiment of the brigade being a defender is much higher than that of the forwards. This is why in the first wave of attacks, only Okamoto's 57th Infantry Battalion of the Infantry Battalion of the 57th Infantry Battalion of the brigade was from the Ai Regiment, while the two infantry battalions, Kamai and Domen, both came from the 7th Infantry Battalion of the Minoano Taisuke.
