Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 2490 Olympic Project

The moral standards of peaceful times cannot be used to demand soldiers during war.

In the era of cold weapons, the city can be broken for three days without sealing the knife. In the era of hot war, the threat to soldiers is even greater. Throwing an incendiary bomb, the burning temperature can reach 3000 degrees, and steel can be burned for you. It is the favorite of the European allies. Barbecue, almost no one touched it in the East Asian battlefield. Many Allied pilots felt sick when they smelled barbecue. They would never eat barbecue in their life.

Especially the bomber pilots who went to Tokyo to perform missions. When many bombers came back, their fuselages were blackened, and the crew members were sickened by the smell of roasting human flesh. Yes, this is also the reason why southern Africa has not used atomic bombs on the battlefield until now, because it is not necessary at all.

When the European Allied Forces were about to invade Germany, the East Asian Allied Forces were about to land in Japan.

Like the "Overlord" operation, Angie and MacArthur also developed a battle plan for the landing battle, which was named "Olympic".

In the "Olympic" plan, the East Asian Allied Forces will dispatch 68 divisions to launch a landing operation in Kyushu under the cover of 24 aircraft carriers, 24 battleships, and nearly 400 other ships. It is estimated that the total number of troops participating in the "Olympic" plan The troop strength will exceed 300 million, surpassing the 268 million in Normandy.

The 268 million here refers to the total strength of the Allied forces that landed in Normandy after the launch of "Operation Overlord".

In addition to the southern African army and the US military, the troops participating in the "Olympic" plan also included the East Indian Army, the Anzac Army, and some British and Indian troops transferred from India.

The information collected by the Allied Forces through different channels shows that Japan still has the ability to resist. After transferring 21 divisions stationed abroad to Japan, Japan has expanded its military three times since entering 1944, except for the newly formed 42 divisions. In addition to the infantry divisions, 4 anti-aircraft artillery divisions and 7 tank brigades, a militia of 2800 million people was formed.

2800 million!
This may be the largest military establishment in human history.

Even if these supplementary militias are excluded, the defense force of Japan's mainland has reached 370 million, which is not without the power of the First World War.

"2800 million! I doubt that Japan can produce weapons that can equip 2800 million people. All the information shows that even the frontline troops of the Japanese army are now in short supply of ammunition. Are the Japanese preparing to use bamboo spears to deal with Is it our M4?" MacArthur went crazy after knowing this situation.

MacArthur always thought he was a lunatic.

Now that he finally met a real opponent, the Japanese became crazy, and even MacArthur was terrified.

When the World War broke out, the total population of Japan was only 7300 million, and now it must be less than 7000 million. After the Allied Forces began to bomb the Japanese mainland, Japan’s food supply, not to mention ammunition, began to be in crisis. In this case, Japan They actually formed a militia of 2800 million people. This is really preparing for [-] million pieces of jade.

M4 is the Sherman of the United States. Although the performance of this tank is not outstanding, it has a simple structure and is easy to manufacture on a large scale. The United States has now produced nearly 4 Shermans, which is much more than Russia.

So Americans are really not worried about the threat of Russia, because no matter how many tanks Russia produces, the United States can produce more.

Just like Britain before World War I, the Americans have the confidence to say that no matter how many tanks Russia makes, for every one the Russians build, the United States will build four.

Japan has no such confidence. Since last year, Japan has stopped building new warships, and even the Type Zero, which shined in the early days of the Pacific War, no longer manufactures, and uses all its industrial capabilities to manufacture kamikaze fighters.

A kamikaze is a suicide plane, with a simple engine and an iron shell, as long as it can fly, the body is filled with explosives, and the fighting method is direct impact.

The Allies estimated that Japan had at least fifteen thousand suicide planes.

The amazing thing is that to the extent it is today, Japan's suicide planes are divided into army and navy.

Japan has fifteen thousand aircraft, the navy ten thousand, and the army five thousand.

The navy's goal is clear, and it is used to deal with Allied warships.

What did the Japanese Army want suicide planes to ram into Allied tanks?
Compared with warships with a distance of hundreds of meters, tanks have small targets and are not easy to hit. It is doubtful whether Japan still has so many pilots.

You must know that the cost of training pilots is very high, let alone the cost of aircraft, does Japan still have the fuel needed to train pilots?
"It's not impossible—" An Qi handed MacArthur a photo, which showed the Japanese militiamen being trained. The weapons in their hands were actually wooden sticks, not even as good as bamboo spears.

In the corner of the photo, there are several Japanese military officers who are inspecting the training of the militia. Their expressions are extremely gloomy, which is more severe than the situation Japan is facing now.

The M4 is a solid, if not great, tank.

Using wooden sticks to deal with M4, this cannot be described as crazy. The person who made this decision wanted to drag all the Japanese to be buried with him, because from the attitude of the Allied forces towards Japan, after the war, Japan decided to launch a war Those people will definitely be liquidated.

Since it is death anyway, it is better to die more vigorously.

"Where was this photo taken?" MacArthur was very curious, and estimated that if he knew, he would send bombers immediately.

MacArthur lamented the madness of the Japanese, which did not affect MacArthur's killing of the Japanese. Thinking of the humiliation of being forced to flee the Philippines by the Japanese, MacArthur could not sleep at night.

"It doesn't matter where the filming took place, what matters is how much resistance the Japanese still have." An Qi has no interest in bombing the Japanese mainland, and now the only thing that makes An Qi excited is landing in the Japanese mainland.

Almost all cities in Japan have been carpet-bombed by the Allied forces more than once.

Referring to the power of incendiary bombs, Japan should have completely lost its ability to resist by now.

But in fact, Japan has been able to persist until now. An Qi racked her brains and couldn't find a Japanese factory that produces suicide aircraft. Of course, this also has a lot to do with Japan's industrial production methods. Japan's industrial capabilities must be completely wiped out. , unless all the villages in Japan are razed to the ground.

Japan's industrial model is different from that of southern Africa and the United States. Except for a few famous naval factories, most of Japan's factories are handicraft workshops scattered in residential areas. The role of factories is assembly, so Even if the Allied forces burned Tokyo to the ground, Japan would still be able to organize production.

"If we land in Japan, we may lose 170 million to 400 million people." MacArthur's assessment of Japan is improving. Last year, MacArthur estimated that launching a landing operation in Japan would only lose 200 million people at most.

"Just relying on Japanese wooden sticks? How is that possible!" Angie's contempt for the Japanese is evident.

Referring to the results of the Russian battlefield, if the Allied forces lose 400 million people in Japan, then Japan must be prepared to lose 4000 million people, one for ten. The occupation army's operations in enemy-occupied areas are so cruel.

Unlike the Allied forces fighting in France with their hands tied, the Allied forces would not show any mercy when fighting in mainland Japan. It would be over with a tank running all the way through, and the shells probably would not use a few rounds.

Because of the frequent earthquakes in Japan, most Japanese houses are made of wooden structures for safety. This structure is most conducive to the use of incendiary bombs. At the same time, it has no defense against tanks, just hit them directly.

In order to reduce casualties, the Allied Forces will not fight Japan for urban battles. Even if the Japanese want to learn from the Russians and rely on city defense, they don't have that condition.

In order to resist the severe cold, most of the buildings in Russia are made of square reinforced concrete. This kind of building is naturally a strong fortress, purely for military service, so the Russians have the capital to fight the city battle with the Germans, but the Japanese do not.

"If we can drop a few atomic bombs on Japan, it may disintegrate the Japanese will to fight." MacArthur wanted to see how powerful the atomic bombs in southern Africa were.

"Aren't you going to succeed in developing it soon? If you don't use it now, you won't have a chance in the future—" An Qi also wanted to see how powerful the US atomic bomb is.

"Don't listen to the president's nonsense in St. Petersburg, it's early, there is no movie—" MacArthur rebelled, easily exposing the research progress of the United States.

Of course, it may also be a smoke bomb. No one can tell whether it is true or not, unless the United States really uses the atomic bomb on the battlefield to prove that the United States has successfully developed it.

From this perspective, the United States is also doubting whether southern Africa has an atomic bomb.

An Qi didn't explain, and continued to prepare for the "Olympic" plan.

Of the 68 divisions participating in the "Olympic" plan, 27 are from southern Africa, and 25 are from the United States. All the participating troops in southern Africa are in place, and some of the participating troops in the United States are still in Europe. They have to wait until the battle in Europe is over before they can be dispatched. The troops are called in.

From this situation analysis, the so-called 1000 million troops of the United States also have problems. There are only 21 divisions of the US military in the entire Pacific region with less than 100 million people. After removing the garrison troops that cannot participate in the war, only 10 divisions of the US Eighth Army can participate in the "Olympic". , You have to transfer 15 divisions from Europe.

Interestingly, Southern Africa also claimed to have formed an army of 1000 million people, but in fact it must be far less than that, even if all the servants are included, it will be less than 1000 million.

It is estimated that only Russia has a real army of 1000 million.

Therefore, the bearded man is the most honest person, and he is really confident.

Russia does not count the troops being trained, and there are more than 1000 million troops fighting on the front line alone. This is the case when Russia has lost 3000 million people.

Looking at it this way, another Ansa talent who boasted of "Normandy" without a bottom line in time and space is really shameless.

If you pick a bargain, you pick a bargain, and you have the face to talk about the turning point of World War II. What's even more amazing is that many people actually believe it. What's your brain?

Look at the old, weak, sick and disabled in France of the Axis powers, and look at the battles involving millions of people on the Russian battlefield. If Normandy can become a turning point, then there are too many turning points in World War II.

It's not that An Qi looks down on the Americans. The performance of the US military in North Africa really made the US military compete with the elite German troops in the early days of World War II. The performance of the US military is estimated to be inferior to that of France.

During the North African campaign, Rommel's subordinates were just a group of leftovers put together improvised, and just this made the U.S. military look ashamed.

If you really want to switch to the elite troops on the Russian battlefield, Rommel should be able to fish in the Suez Canal when the North African Campaign broke out.

Southern African troops preparing to participate in the "Olympic" project are gathering in the Philippines, and the Anzac and British-Indian troops are all in place. Now it is waiting for the United States to draw troops from the European battlefield.

In the plan submitted by MacArthur, the troops to be deployed by the United States are the First Army, and the main force of the First Army is attacking the Liege Fortress with all its strength under the command of Eisenhower.

The assembly of millions of troops in the Philippines was a huge test for the Allied logistics.

The support of the Allied forces for the East Asian battlefield is obviously not as good as that of the European battlefield.

In order to prepare for the "Overlord" operation, the Allied forces prepared for two years and hoarded a large amount of supplies in the UK, and they still stumbled in the fight.

The distance from Portsmouth to Normandy is only over 100 kilometers, and the distance from the Philippines to Kyushu is more than 1600 kilometers. Such a long supply line will completely collapse the Allied logistics, so Angel must find a more suitable forward base.

Of course there are suitable forward bases, and Ryukyu has become the best choice.

In the first battle of Ryukyu, the Allied forces suffered heavy losses. In just three months, the US military alone suffered 3 casualties, 7.5 aircraft, and 700 ships.

The Japanese army suffered 11 casualties, and lost 7000 aircraft and 20 ships.

In addition, civilian casualties on the island alone exceeded 10.

In the past, "exceed" was used to indicate that the number is huge, which looks shocking.

"Exceed" is used here because the specific number cannot be ruled, and the only evidence available is more than 10 people.

The Japanese shouted "one hundred million pieces of jade" to express their determination to fight to the end.

Ryukyu was really broken. After the battle, except for a small part of the Ryukyu people who withdrew to the Japanese mainland, all the rest were dead, leaving only a bare island to the Allies.

During the Battle of Ryukyu, Lieutenant General Buckner, commander of the US 10th Army, was killed while observing the battle. He was the highest-ranking US military general killed in the Pacific War.

There is a huge gap between the equipment of the Ryukyu Japanese army and the US military.

The U.S. Army lost 372 tanks in the Battle of Ryukyu, and the Japanese had none.

The equipment gap is so large, but the result is like this. No wonder the United States estimates that the "Olympic" operation will lose 400 million people.

Angie's favorite battle is equipment crushing. With absolute air superiority, absolute sea superiority, and absolute army equipment superiority, the enemy basically has no ability to resist, and only the Americans can fight such a battle loss ratio.

Now An Qi has begun to hoard supplies needed for the "Olympic" project in Ryukyu, and countless ships loaded with various military supplies are gathering in Ryukyu.

This level of material mobilization certainly cannot be concealed from the Japanese. The Japanese army began a planned attack on Ryukyu in response to the material mobilization of the Allied forces.

The Japanese Army's suicide plane could finally be used.
