豫湘桂战役是抗日战争后期,日军发动的投入兵力最多,持续时间最长,作战区域跨度最大的一次战役。这场战役的中方的失败固与国民政府政治腐败、军事落后分不开,更与日方直接关联。以河南会战为例,战前日本政府做了积极的战争总动员,以及具体的战术准备,同时密切关注国民政府方面的情况,搜集情报,同时也调配了充分的兵力和武器装备支撑,再加上日军指挥机关与各作战部门的有机联系,使得日本方面始终处于有利的战争态势,可以说,国民政府豫湘桂战役的溃败是一种的必然的战争结局。 The battle of Henan and Hunan and Guangxi was the last battle of the Anti-Japanese War. The Japanese army launched its war with the largest force and the longest duration and the strongest combat zone. The failure of the Chinese side in this battle is inseparably linked to the political corruption of the Kuomintang government and military backwardness and is even more directly linked to Japan. Take Henan Battle as an example. Before the war, the Japanese government made a positive war general mobilization as well as specific tactical preparation. At the same time, it paid close attention to the situation of the Kuomintang government, collected intelligence and also provided full support for its troops and weapons and equipment. The organic connection between the command and command organs of the Japanese Army and various combat units made the Japanese side always in a favorable war situation. It can be said that the defeat of the KMT government in the battle of Hunan and Guangxi was a necessary outcome of the war.
