On 9 August 1945 a force of over 1.5 million Red Army soldiers
employed extensive and imaginative maneuver to overcome terrain
thought to be inpenetrable. With formidable Japanese defences along
a front of more than 2700 miles spanning the most formidable
terrain an army has ever faced, they utterly demolished the
Japanese defenders, and forced them to surrender. To accomplish
this unprecedented feat, the Soviet High Command had to transfer
more than 500,000 troops, 7000 guns and mortars, 2000 tanks, 17,000
trucks, and thousands of tons of military equipment and supplies up
to 6000 miles from European Russia to the Far East in one of the
most massive and rapid military regroupings in history. Volume II
covers the detailed course of operational and tactical fighting in
virtually every combat sector.
