The Red Army "handled" the Kwantung Army because it outnumbered them three to one in men, five to one in tanks, ten to one in artillery, and had control of the air. The Japanese tanks had 37mm guns, the Soviet tanks had 85mm guns, the largest Japanese infantry artillery was 70mm the largest Soviet infantry gun was 100mm. The Soviet troops were veterans of the Eastern Front, and the Japanese troops were conscripts used to fighting lightly armed Chinese troops and guerillas. The Kwantung army had plenty of fuel, food and ammo and was certainly NOT starving. The best soldiers had been moved to Japan to meet the invasion and they weren't starving either, the civilians in Japan were near starvation, but the military got everything it needed.Once again you prove you know nothing. Their army was starving and without oil. Little ammunition and completely demoralized. Their best soldiers were dead. If you knew anything, you’d know that’s a military incapable of offensive action.
You might read up on how the Soviet Red Army handled the Japanese Imperial Army (Kwantung Army) in Manchuria, but than you’d have to know how to read above fourth grade level.
