Chapter 69 Strength Comparison
"Heh, every bombing mission is carried out very smoothly, which makes me have to thank those workers in the intelligence department, and those Chinese dogs who uphold the friendship between China and Japan.!" Oshima Ichiro drove the plane at high altitude , secretly thought in the air.

At this moment, the total number of fighter jets and bombers deployed in the Shanghai area reached 210 per day. According to the different targets, they formed three groups and followed the guidance of the bonfire, and rushed directly to the Chinese defenders around Shanghai. .

The team led by Oshima Ichiro is also the most powerful among them. It consists of forty escort fighters and sixty bombers. Their goal is the frontline troops of the Songhu Defender Middle Route Army located on the west side of Shanghai. .

And this is only the first bombing!
According to the plan of the new commanding commander Terauchi Shouichi, first let the air force carry out the first bombing, so that all the troops of the Chinese defenders can be mobilized for defense!And lure out the remaining heavy firepower, the camera is destroyed!

Because, in previous wars, the Japanese army's traditional combat method was: after the artillery bombardment was over, the infantry rushed.If you can't rush down, retreat back, and the cannon will continue to bombard!

And this combat method has achieved a nearly complete victory on the Chinese battlefield!It can be seen how high its practicality is!However, this set of combat methods is basically irreproducible!
Because, first of all, the appearance of this combat method must be realized when the opponent's comprehensive strength is not as good as his own!There is nothing to say about this, it is indeed the case.

Although literally the overall strength of the Republic of China is not much different from that of the Japanese army!But this one is literally!Because, this strength is mainly supported by the millions of troops across the country.

As for the strength of other technical arms such as the navy, air force and artillery, they were basically rubbed against the ground by the Japanese army!
Without him, this type of heavy equipment can be manufactured in Japan itself, and there are various manufacturers that have survived until now and have good strength:
排名第一的是三菱财团旗下的三菱重工，二战中主要为日军提供了A5M九六式舰战（九百九十架）、A6M零战（包括其各改进型在内共生产一万零930八架）等超过一万余架。生产军舰包括：航空母舰：大鹰号、隼鹰号、天城号、龙骧号。生产坦克及装甲车辆包括：一式中型坦克（580七辆）九七式中型坦克（一千450辆）、九五式轻坦克（共生产两千370五辆）。

The second is Kawasaki Heavy Industries. The weapons produced include: a total of 570 aircraft of various types have been produced. The warships produced include: Kaga, Zuihe, Feiying, Taifeng, Mizuho aircraft carrier.

The third is Fuji Heavy Industries, which produced more than 30.00 military aircraft of various types during World War II, accounting for [-]% of Japan's total output of military aircraft during World War II.surpassed Mitsubishi to rank first.An additional [-] engines were produced, second only to Mitsubishi.

In the back, there are also electronic and electrical equipment such as semiconductors, radars, and telegraphs for the Japanese army: NEC, Matsushita Electric, and Toshiba Group.Nikon provides military equipment such as telescopes, collimators, military rangefinders, military aviation cameras, and periscopes.Nissan and Isuzu trucks are offered.Yamaha offers a wide range of parts.

In addition, metal smelting factories such as the Yawata Iron Works and the Fuji Iron Works established by relying on the indemnity of the Sino-Japanese War. PS: The establishment of Japan's industrial system is completely based on German design, and it has also obtained German technical equipment. support.So it can be said that, except that the raw materials are controlled by others, he can completely beat the whole of Asia!

What's more, it also occupied the largest arsenal in Asia that originally belonged to China --- Fengtian arsenal!
In China, apart from the Hanyang Arsenal, which is still mainly producing in Hanyang, and the Taiyuan Arsenal, which belongs to Yan Laoxier of the Jinsui Army, there are no other large-scale arsenals.

The production base of heavy weapons and equipment, taking artillery as an example, produced a total of more than 98 pieces from the end of the Qing Dynasty to the end of the War of Liberation, and only [-] pieces during the War of Resistance Against Japan!This amount is really heartbreaking!
And the battleship is even more heartbreaking!Until the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, the manufacturing capacity and quantity of domestic ships, especially warships, did not return to the level of the late Qing Dynasty!At the end of the Qing Dynasty, there were still three relatively large shipbuilding chiefs, Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau, Fuzhou Shipping Bureau and Guangdong Dockyard, and they also produced warships with a displacement of less than 58 tons, troop carriers and other military ships. A total of [-] ship.

As for the Republic of China, only the Jiangnan Shipyard was left in operation, and only one warship was produced. That was the flagship of the First Fleet of the Republic of China Navy. The light cruiser "Pinghai" commissioned in June!

The final fate of the cruiser was on September 23, [-], after being severely damaged by the Japanese Air Force, it sank in Shizuowei Shoal.

It was salvaged by the Japanese army in [-], towed back to Japan, moored in Sasebo Port, and rebuilt as a training ship.

In the end, it was sent to the front line of Luzon Island in 25, and was sunk by a US Navy aircraft in Luzon Island on November [-] of that year.

From the above data, we can see that the government of the Republic of China invested almost nothing in its own heavy industry!As a result, its own weapons and equipment manufacturing industry cannot support the needs of civil wars at all!This is the gap in hard power!
In addition, in terms of intelligence, when the warlords were fighting, there were more or less Japanese instructors in the troops of each warlord!While guiding the domestic war thinking to remain at the level of World War I, they are probing military intelligence from various places, collecting and mapping domestic geographic information!
In addition, various commercial companies that are businessmen on the surface, but actually intelligence agents, dump the weapons and equipment produced in Japan that have fallen behind or have been eliminated by the army to the country at low prices, suppressing domestic military manufacturing at the same time. On the other hand, the profits earned are used to buy more raw materials and reserve war resources!

I still remember that there was such a situation at that time, the specifications of the artillery and shells sold by Japan to China were not the same as those in Europe and the United States.In other words, if you buy Japanese artillery, you must buy the corresponding shells!Otherwise, that cannon is a pile of scrap iron!It's a pity that under the offensive of money and beauty, such things abound!
