		<description>Many of the units that Zhukov commanded at Khalkhin Gol were transfered to the Moscow front in late 1941.  But These Khalkhin Gol vetrans were only a fraction of the total forces transfered from the Far East to the Moscow front at that time.  I&#039;m not sure what percentage were Russian and slavic.  I haven&#039;t followed them after the Battle of Moscow, so I don&#039;t know to what extent these same units were involved in the Stalingrad campaign.</description>

		<description>Paul Penrod&#039;s comment about similar Japanese errors at Khalkhin Gol and Guadalcanal has a surprising basis. TSUJI Masanobu, who bears so much of the responsibility for the disaster at Khalkhin Gol, was in the thick of the ighting on Guadalcanal, where he again caused a military disaster.</description>

		<description>Notice the parallel with Guadalcanal-The Japanese committed forces in a very piecemeal and indecisive fashion against an unfamiliar enemy and on both occasions got burned for it. 

Excellent research-I enjoyed Zhukov&#039;s ploys to lull the Japanese into not expecting an attack. The Germans pulled the same stunts on the Russians preceding Barbarossa</description>

		<description>Wow, that&#039;s some history I didn&#039;t know, with gigantic implications.

Of course, Stalin, by buddying up with Hitler, set the Soviet Union up for horrendous casualties--in the range of 20 million-plus deaths. And *he&#039;s* responsible for the eventual death of the marxist ideology(cept in liberal arts department in college), for he purged the party of anybody more charismatic, innovative, intelligent, talented, and inspriing than himself, and this eventually led to stagnation and the fall of the Soviet Union due to a paucity of actual ideas, combined with dizzying cynicism.</description>

		<description>I am some knower over Japanese-Soviet Clashes in 1938 and 93 among the Japanese-Chinese Conflict in 1937-45.

based in own experience in Nomonhan Japanese developed a some type of 47mm AT infantry guns and Self-propelled vehicles, Armored carriers and Tanks with 47mm cannons

I considered why for Japanese having to chosen figthing against Chinese are erroneous and theirs poses some potential triumph charts in your hands for created needed base of war against Soviets in Siberia:

*Japanese a set up some anticomunist puppet states in Northern China:
-Chinese East Hebei Autonomous Council (1935 – 1938)
-Chinese Provisional Government of the Republic of China  (1937-1940)
-Mongolian Mengkiang (1936 - 1945)
-Manchurian Empire of Manchoukou (1932 – 1945)

*Among Japanese poses some Siberian and Central asian nationalities disconformed with Soviets living in such territoires:
-White Russians and East Jews
-Exiled Yakutians and Buriats
-Tibetans,Uiguirs,Dungans and Central Asians

*Japanese during your failed campaing in mainlad China accumulated a force between 1 to 3 million of Japanese and Korean soldiers a half of total of Japanese land forces in Pacific war period.

*Japanese poses a important defector and expert in Soviets topics
the NKVD officer Genrikh Samoilovich Lyushkov why advised the needed of accumulated a 4,000 tanks  for invading siberian lands

If Japanese Army have a decided to use such elements in adequate form for:

- created a combined force conformed by Japanese,white russians,mongol,chinese and Manchu units less between 2 to  3 millions of men
-the use of modified tanks and self-propelled vehicles armed with 75mm cannons 
-joining with any type of  aerial &quot;Blitz&quot; bombardments

for used an sort distracted strikes to Argun and Amur frontier fortifications and Japan sea fortifications for launched the main stream &quot;lance point&quot; land attack for main Mongolian  territoire in route to Irkusts preceded with aerial landings and some undercover strikes for cutting Transiberian line along Irkust also.

such plan as results to &quot;cut the neck&quot; of the Soviet Far East and causing the isolation of such territoire of rest of European Soviet Union,and Japanese easy entering to Blagoveschensk and Khabarovsk without or scarcy resistance

Among this exists some reports from Siberia were one a Communist Serbian why making a interviews with diffrents siberian citizens (students,konsomolsk members,office workers, mining  and factory workers,teaches and Communists Party officers,etc) why related stay agreed with seeking the entering of Japanese tanks and soldiers in disacord with Stalininst regimen among some inclusive as disposes to support a Japanese forces if enter in Siberian lands if aiding to a local rebellion against European Stalinists in local government also.

with these points i thinked why Japanese a poses some potential posibilities to defeated soviet forces in Siberia if proposed a making such campaing inclusive with Imperial Navy enter to war with United States in Pearl Harbor.</description>
