Anti-Japanese heroic righteousness

This can be seen from their subsequent defense deployment. After plundering the three northeastern provinces of China, they immediately built a large number of fortifications in the south of the Kanto, the most famous being the Dongning Fortress, known as the "Oriental Maginot Line of Defense".

In fact, before World War II, Germany hoped that the island army would attack the Soviet Union together, but they were all rejected by the island army. The island army only formed a defensive alliance with Germany, not an offensive one.

The island army actually reflected this idea in its war against the United States.They attacked Pearl Harbor, but they did not occupy Pearl Harbor, which is a very important strategic location.In the early days of the war, the war preparations of the island army were superior to those of the United States. If they occupied Pearl Harbor and landed on the west coast of the United States, they would be fully equipped with this strength.However, the island only fought against Pearl Harbor and did not occupy it. Instead, it turned its forces to fight for Southeast Asia.

These all reflect the strategic short-sightedness of the island army. They copied the experience of the Russo-Japanese War.In the Russo-Japanese War, Russia retreated, not because the island army was strong enough to deter Russia, but because Russia had internal worries at that time and was unable to solve foreign aggressions.Later, the Soviet Union adopted a centralized system, and there were no internal worries, only external troubles such as Germany and the island countries.Stalin's territorial ambitions are also rare in the world, how could he retreat in spite of difficulties?It is only because Germany is more threatening that the conflict with the island country is temporarily eased.Once Stalin had dealt with Germany, the next step was to deal with the island states.

Not to mention the United States, the island country’s surprise attack on Pearl Harbor only brought a small skin trauma to the United States, and there was no injury at all. How could the United States retreat so easily?

The islanders think they are smart, let the Soviet Union and the United States "retire" and become the overlord of East Asia. When the opponent becomes stronger, they will do everything possible to weaken or even defeat the opponent.A white supremacist country like the Soviet Union and the United States will never allow a non-white country to become so powerful that it threatens itself. No matter how big the contradictions are between them, when non-white races and religions rise, they will inevitably join hands , Establish a united front, and jointly fight against the same enemy, in order to achieve the purpose of protecting oneself and weakening others.Therefore, whether it is China, the island countries, or India, in the eyes of the Soviet Union and the United States, they will always be the object of restriction.If the countries of the Orientals are to be strong, they must overcome their hurdles.The standard of strength is: after receiving one blow from them, it still has the ability to destroy them at least once, so that they dare not have the idea of ​​fighting you to the death. Such a country is a truly powerful country.

It's a pity that the island army has never understood this truth. Their strategy is to constantly poke the hornet's nest instead of taking it away.On the contrary, Neiji Okamura's plan is very forward-looking. He joined forces with the German army to eradicate the Soviet Union, completely eliminated the hornet's nest, and then turned around to deal with China. With the strong material support of the Soviet Union and the assistance of the German army, China The situation in China may not be better than it is now, it may only be worse, because by then, China will have no foreign aid at all, and its destruction may only be a matter of time.

But no matter how hypnotized Okamura Neji said, the cabinet members did not accept it. Their conservative thinking made them give up everything in front of them and push it all over again. They couldn't do it, and they didn't dare to make such a big bet. There is also a powerful navy to rely on. Although the situation in Southeast Asia is full of variables and threats, as long as they can suppress the US Navy in the Pacific Ocean, they will still have the capital and expeditionary forces to fight it out in Burma.

Neiji Okamura's supporters are all cutting-edge forces, and the only one who is more important is the Southern Army Commander Tsukada Makoto, and his support is oppressive or purposeful. The expeditionary force in front of him brought him The coming threat is unprecedented, and he is more happy to see the peace talks succeed, the expeditionary force withdraw from Burma across the board, and the Burmese crisis be resolved peacefully.

Fighting against Jiang Haoran for half a year, Tsukada Gong never won a single battle, his self-confidence and courage have been severely damaged, and he is already a little hairy from the bottom of his heart.

Of course, such a major strategic plan change cannot be resolved in one or two meetings. There will be a long discussion process when the plan is proposed, and this matter can only come to an end here, because it is time for dinner.

Maybe it was destined to be an eventful day today, just when Yu Rentian locust announced the adjournment of the meeting, and when the generals were about to leave, another emergency telegram came from the staff.

The telegram was sent from the United States by a special high-level class. They have confirmed that the United States has indeed developed a new type of carrier-based aircraft, and it is specially produced by the Type Zero to restrain the locust army. Moreover, the number of aircraft carriers in the US Pacific Fleet has changed from the original The four aircraft carriers in China have been increased to seven aircraft carriers. They will conduct a large-scale military exercise in the near future, the purpose of which is to test the performance of new carrier-based aircraft and test the combat effectiveness of the rebuilt aircraft carrier fleet.

This is an astonishingly important news, and everyone had to go back to the conference table again. This news coincides with the news sent back by the "Falcon" a few days ago, and its authenticity is beyond doubt. In Malacca, the United States suffered a big loss, not to mention the loss of the First Fleet, and the Mi Army successfully rescued the Miffy coalition forces on the Pacific islands.

In that battle, the island army's navy always believed that they were attacked by the rice army and fell into Jiang Haoran's plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain, and did not recognize their weakness in combat effectiveness.

But now the rise of the Mi Army's Pacific Fleet still makes them terrified. The seven aircraft carriers are still in second place. What worries them most is the new type of carrier-based aircraft.The reason why the island army's combined fleet was able to rampage in the Pacific Ocean is mostly because its superior Zero-type carrier-based aircraft can suppress the Mi Army's f4f wildcat fighter jets. Once this form is reversed by the Mi Army, the sky over the Pacific Ocean will increase. There are too many uncertain factors, which the island army absolutely cannot allow.

After some intense discussions, the island army headquarters finally decided to nip this threat in the bud.

The final result of the negotiation was to launch a large-scale surprise attack during the military exercise of the Mi Army, and try its best to destroy the Pacific Fleet of the Mi Army.

The reason for choosing this time point is mainly because it is the best time for the Mi Army to concentrate its aircraft carriers, and it is impossible to use live ammunition in the exercise. As long as it can meet the enemy secretly, it can completely catch the Mi Army by surprise.

The last remaining difficult question is how to determine the specific time for the Mi Army's exercise.

Of course, this is not a problem for the island army, because they still have super agents like "Falcon" lurking in the expeditionary force.
