	Kantogun - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The unit was originally established in 1906 as the Kwantung Garrison to defend the Kwantung Leased Territory and the areas adjacent to the South Manchurian Railway.

		The Army fought against the Soviet Union's Red Army at Zhanggufeng in 1938 and Nomonhan in 1939, sustaining heavy casualties.
