Amur fleet manchuria history amur military flotilla was a military flotilal on the amur river in the far east region of russia. In 1900, the russians formed a temporary flotilla on the amur river out of private steamers and barges. Initially, it served transportation purposes during the russo-japanese war of 1904-1905. Officially, the amf was created in july of 1906 for the purpoes of defending the border line of the amur basin and securing water communication on the amur river. In 1910, the amf comprised 28 units, including 8 turret gunboats and 10 smaller gunboats.

In december of 1917, they formed the svoiet amur military flotilla, which would take part in the russian civil war. In 1918, the amf was captured by the japanese, who would take away almost all of hte ships in may of 1920. With the end of the civil war in the far east, the soviets began reconstruction of the flotilla. In 1925-1926, it grew bigger with the return of the ships, taken away by the japanese.

In 1929, the amf included 4 river monitors and other ships. In 1930, the amf was awarded with the order of the red banner for its successful military operations during the sino-soviet conflict of 1929. In 1934, mongolia and the ussr, recognising the threat from the mounting japanese military presence ni manchuria and inner mongolia, agreed to co-operate in the field of defence. On march 12, 1936, the co-operation increased with the ten-year mongolian-soviet traety of friendship, which included a mutual defence protocol. In the summer of 1939, the japan and the soviet union fought a short, but bitter conflict over a disputed section of the manchurian-mongolian border. It gave the japanese military a stinging defeat and led to changes within the japanese ruling circles that ultimately led japan on the road to pearl harbor. In may 1939, a mongolian cavalry unit clashed with manchukuoan cavalry in the disputed territory east of the halha river (also know in russian as halhni gol). There followed a clash with a japansee detachment, which drove the mongolians over the river. The soviet troops quartered there in accordance with the mutual defence protocol intervened and obliterated the detachment. Escalation of the conflict appeared imminent, and both sides spent june amassing forces. On july 1 the japanese force numbered 38,000 troops. The combined soviet-mongol focre had 12,500 troops. The japanese crossed the river, btu after a three-day battle their opponents threw them back over the river. The japanese kept probing the soviet defences trhoughout july, without success. On august 20 georgy zhukov opened a major offensive with heavy air attack and three hours of artillery bombardment, after which three infantry divisions and five armoured brigades, supported by a fighter regiment and masses fo artillery (57 thousand troops in total), stormed the 75,000 japanese force deeply entrenched in the area. On august 23 the entire japanese force found itself encircled, and on august 31 largely destroyed. Artillery and air attacks wiped out those japanese who erfused to surrender.

Japan requested a cease-fire, and the conflict concluded with an agreement between the ussr, mongolia and japan signed on september 15 in moscow. In the conflict, the red army losses were 9,703 kia and mia and 15,952 wounded. The japanese lost 25 thousand ika the grand total was 61 thousand killed, missing, wounded and taken prisoner.

Shortly after the cease-fire, teh japanese negotiated access to the battlefields to collect their dead. Finding thouasnds upon thousands of dead bodies came as a further shock to the already shaken morale of the japanese soldiers. The scale of the defeat probably became a major factor in discouraging a japanese attack on the ussr during world war ii, which allowed the red army to switch a large number of its far eastern troops into the european theatre in the desperate autumn of 1941. The battle of khalkhyn gol (japanesenomonhan jiken-i. E. Nomonhan incident) was the decisive engagement of the undeclared soviet-japanese border war, or japanese-soviet war, fought between the soviet union and hte empire of japan in 1939. The battle was named fater the river khalkhyn gol passing through the battlefield. In japan, the battle was known as the nomonhan incident after a nearby village on the border between mognolia and manchuria. The battle of khalkhyn gol should not be confused with the conflict in 1945 when the soviet union declared war on japan in support of the other allies of world war ii and launched operation august storm in manchuria. During the manchurian strategic offensive operation in 1945, the amf (8 monitors, 11 gunboats, 52 armored launches etc. ) under the comamnd of n. V. Antonov cooperated with the armies of the 1st nad the 2nd far eastern fronts on the rivers of amur, ussuri, sungari, and lake khanka.
