Conflict

On 27th of May, the imperial Japanese Army HQ issued its operational order calling for am attack on the east bank of the Halha River. Since surprise was impossible in the steppes in daylight, the assault forces were to move forward at night to jump off at dawn on the 28th. Typical of IJA tactical thinking, the plan for encirclement was complex. On paper, the plan looked beautiful -- a separate advance with joint attack (bunshin gogeki) to catch the fleeing enemy in a double envelopment. Major Azuma's small reconnaissance unit of truck and horse-mounted infantry, mule-packed guns and a small tank was to seize the confluence of the Halha and Holsten rivers swiftly and cut off the retreating Russians from the rear. But at dawn, they moved forward and ran into an unexpectedly determined foe.
