In response to this decision, on July 7, the so-called Kwantung Army Special Maneuvers was started, in which troops, under the pretext of tactical training, were mobilized in preparation for an invasion of the Soviet Union, depending on how the German invasion was progressing. |
この決定を受けてソビエトに対しては7月7日いわゆる関東軍特種演習を発動し、演習名目で兵力を動員し、独ソ戦争の推移次第ではソビエトに攻め込むという作戦であった。 |
