Overview:
Despite the annihilation of its Azuna Detachment in May, the Kwantung Army thought a similar operation would succeed with more troops. in their July attack, the Japanese aimed to cut off Russian units east of the Halha and north of the Holsten Rivers, which formed a "Z". As the rest of its parent 23rd Division struck south on the west side of the Halha, the 64th Infantry Regiment under Col. Yamagata struck south on the Halha's east side. Also attacking on the east side was the 3rd Armored regiment -- representing half of the Kwantung Army's available armor -- led by Col. Yoshimaru. Agreeing on a coordinated attack, the Japanese colonels thought their superior forces could slash effortlessly through what they at first believed were Mongolian cavalry. Even when harassed by Russian tank patrols, the Japanese tankers and riflemen remained fixated on the stunning victory of reaching the Halha-Holsten confluence, trapping the Russians north of it. The Russians seemed to be retreating, but they were falling back to their prepared positions on Heights 731, a pimple on the flat plain. And yet, the Japanese were confident. The men of Major Remizov's 149th Infantry Regiment were determined to prove them wrong.Attacker: Russian (Elements of the 149th Infantry Regiment and 9th Armored Brigade)
