Chapter 1455: Attack the Japanese Islands
I thought that this was the case, and the first shot of the Pacific War was not sent by Lan Fang. They were responsible for attacking Guam, and it would take some time to prepare. The North Sea Fleet was the real one who sent troops. During the Pacific War, they were responsible for the construction of the Ogasawara Archipelago, the Izu Islands, the volcanic islands, the Mariana Islands, and even the Mariana Islands. After controlling these two strategic locations, they would hand over these islands to Lan Fang. They were only responsible for suppressing the possible counterattacks that Japan might have made in Japan.
If it occupied this place, China would go deeper toward the Pacific Ocean by about 2,400 kilometers. It has to be said that the vastness of the world's largest ocean is just a little bit extended from land on the world map. However, on the sea and land, it is like the sky and underground. Even if it is 500 kilometers a day, it will take at least 5 days. This is a long journey. Fortunately, neither the Ogasawara Islands nor the Mariana Islands have much resistance. The Ogasawara Islands belong to Japan and obtained in 1876, but Japan's even one
The capital was not very developed. This kind of island about 1,000 kilometers away from Tokyo is just a matter of people to fend for themselves. According to Chinese intelligence, there are currently about 23,000 people on the Ogasawara Archipelago, of which there are only more than 500 soldiers, which are similar to the defenders on Guam. Fighting rabbits also needs to use all their strength. China deeply understands this. The Northern Fleet dispatched 3 main battleships, 12 heavy patrols, and more than 40 large and small ships, carrying a division of landing troops, and even mobilized 800 Marines.
The Marine Corps was established under the requirements of Yang Yuanzhao. It is basically the same as the special forces. It has extremely high basic capabilities. On the basis of the special forces, it focuses on landing operations. It is a sharp knife for island combat. With the help of special equipment, these Marines can dive 18-25 kilometers underwater. This distance is enough to break through most of the land defense circles. As long as there are 50-100 Marines land on an island guarded by the enemy, the damage to the heavily guarded island is huge. 50-100 well-trained special forces, in special terrain such as the island, will be enough to paralyze part of the island in a short time, but battleships will break through and strike this gap, and cooperate with the inside and outside, which is enough to solve all problems.
A Chinese Army division with more than 25,000 personnel, more than 40 ships of size, plus 800 Marines, the total number of people exceeded 30,000. The total number of officers and soldiers was more than the residents on the island. This is also a way to do everything and leave no room for them.
Three not-so-large archipelagos have used more than 30,000 people to deal with Guam, with a total of 200,000 people. They will not stay since they took Guam, so they will continue to go to the Caroline Islands and Marshall Islands, the two archipelagos in the Pacific Ocean, basically no protection. The warships are armed and swim, but the next thing is the most important. Among these archipelagos, all those who can build runways and cabins will be built. Only with these can these be firmly grasped in their hands, using the aircraft range to control the sea areas, and with the newly developed high-power sea radar, this time it becomes a barrier. It is easy for China to obtain these islands. In the future, even if it is counterattacked and the opponent is strong, it is very difficult to regain so many islands.
During World War II, Japan resisted the attack of the Americans without the air force and the naval power were completely lost. In the Battle of Iwo Jima, the United States was almost completely scared. Even if the Americans jumped to tactics, they were a little chilling and attacked the Ogasawara Islands, which were only 1,000 nautical miles away from the main island of Japan. There were many small islands, including the Japanese mainland, and China's Northeast, especially the latter. The place where Japan has operated for many years, isn't it?
If a vegetarian is really going to fight, the United States may suffer huge losses. Therefore, the United States handed over the Kanto Army to the Soviet Union. It was originally intended to weaken the Soviet Union and also had a relationship with the Soviet Union and China. After supporting the battlefields of Europe and Africa, the US military no longer had the ability to support Asian operations. The large number of US military island-grabbing operations were at its limit. It was almost impossible to fight a land station. Compared with the Soviet Union, as early as the Russian era, the Siberian Railway communicated with the east and west.
As it turned out, the United States made the best choice, but the Americans failed to achieve their goal. The Soviet mechanized legion, which came through the Siberian Railway, was swept away like dust under his powerful offensive.
China is not Japan, and the level of manufacturing industry is just a little different from that of the United States after decades. It is even far higher than that of the United States in some low-end and ordinary products. During World War II, the United States mobilized more than 10 million soldiers, but China's ultimate mobilization ability is more than 4 times that of the United States. In terms of machinery, China not only entered the armored division belt, but also entered the aircraft era ahead of schedule.
Under the forward-looking design of all-in-one aircraft and Yang Yuanzhao, World War II-level long-range bombers have been produced, and the performance indicators have even exceeded that of some. Turboprop engines can become the engine of future passenger aircraft. In terms of performance, it is certain that they exceed the piston type. Under the same weight, the take-off weight is large and the fuel consumption is less. In this way, long-range bombers have been reborn. With their existence, coupled with China's nearly unlimited manpower, China is even more terrifying than Japan. Even if the United States has the level of World War II now, it may not be able to beat them. Not to mention, it has been attacked by China for a long time. It is not necessary to be beaten by the United States. It is even more impossible for the national gate to be broken. As for a few years, as long as Yang Yuanzhao is still there and the all-in-one aircraft is still there, the gap between China and the United States is not on the same order of magnitude.
, 30 million square kilometers of rabbits, a larger area of sea border, China's huge population can expand as much as possible. The 1.3 billion population in the previous life was a limit and could not be endured. Now, as long as it reaches the limit, 1.5 billion, 2 billion, or even more, although the emergence of a huge empire will have problems in all aspects, as long as it remains strong, there will be no problems. 20 years later, when the next generation of Chinese people grow up, China's human resources will expand to 1 billion, or even more. In this era, no one can compare to this force. Although the population will bring huge survival pressure, once the survival pressure is solved, the vigorous power brought by the population is far from what weapons and equipment can provide.
Qingdao, the Northern Fleet Command, was ready to go, and immediately launched the troops that would make a short stop in the Ryukyu Islands, and after some supply and cleaning, they would send troops to the Ogasawara Islands. This once caused the US military to suffer a lot. The World War Iwo Jima was one of the most difficult battles in the US World War II landing operations. The number of US troops participated in the war was 70,000, and the Japanese army only had 22,000 fleets, aircraft, cannons, tanks and mechanized landing equipment. However, the Japanese army had only fixed fortifications, but even so, the US military lost 28,000 people, and the Japanese army was almost wiped out, creating the history of the US military. However, in this era, the Ogurihara Islands were not that terrible. The Ogasawara Islands, with a total population of only 23,000 people, and the population of Iwo Jima did not exceed 7,000 people.
For the defenders, there were only 500 people. Japan had not yet formed the combat style of later generations. Even if there were, China was not the US military. Incendiary bombs, ground bombs, large caliber naval guns, and their civil fortifications basically could not pose a threat to the current China. The best solidification for underground fortifications was born after World War II, but now it is a regular weapon of the Chinese army. With this weapon, any underground fortification is a joke. No matter how good ventilation or ventilation is, facing the solidification that draws away the surrounding air, burning can't kill you and suffocate you. Therefore, the Northern Fleet did not even send planes to suppress the formation. On the one hand, there is no need. If the plane really needs, the planes taken off from Ryukyu Airport will be enough to cover the entire Ogasawara Islands. It will be done at that time.
More than 40 warships gathered in front of the father island of the Ogurihara Islands. The largest number of people in the Ogurihara Islands is concentrated here, with a garrison brigade of 7,800 people and 500 people. It is also here. It is the only possible to counterattack in the Ogurihara Islands. Therefore, before the attack, the navy made some preparations, and even made careful arrangements under the plan of the staff, and also planned to send 50 Marines to carry out landing operations 25 kilometers away from the island to disintegrate the resistance on the island and reduce the difficulty of landing.
However, when the warship group arrived at the Ogurihara Islands, they went to the side of the island and fired a few shots, and someone surrendered. At this moment, the Marines had just started to launch the water and were about to rush to the father island while taking advantage of the attack of the warships, and severely damaged the defense system. However, the sudden surrender brought all this to an abrupt end and the war ended.
Next, whether it is the volcanic islands, the Izu Islands, especially the latter, are close to Tokyo Bay and closer to Japan's hinterland, which is basically considered to be Japan's inherent territory. However, facing the strong Chinese navy, Japan is no match for it, and even sent troops. It sent out a large army without encountering any resistance. Even the fleet only fired dozens of shells at most, causing a little casualty to the Japanese, and then it ended. If it weren't for the occupation of a large number of islands, perhaps the entire battle process would not exceed 3 days, and the final consumption would be only 10 days. (To be continued.)
