Chapter 1502 Radical Program

In order to occupy Alaska as soon as possible, China proposed a plan for Japan to be quite radical and moved by Japan, but its opponent was the United States. The United States, which opened the door to Japan, had a very complicated relationship in the hearts of the Japanese. Even if it was an enemy, it was quite cautious. They chose the fourth option, which was a steady plan. First, they captured Unalaska Island, obtained stable support, and gradually occupied the surrounding islands and attacked the Alaska Peninsula. Using this plan, Japan will be escorted by the main fleet of the Chinese Navy at any time, with 18 battleships, and the Alaska islands that do not have much protection, will crush all resistance.

Who knew that the battle of Unarasca directly unveiled the mystery of the US military's combat effectiveness. It turned out that the US military that made Japan wary was just a group of armed peasants. To put it bluntly, the combat effectiveness of the US military was not as good as that of Japan, which was not armed by China, not to mention that now, the Japanese army, which was greatly strengthened by the Chinese team, under the same number, even if Japan attacked the city, could win with a greater advantage, not to mention that in the plan, each military power comparison was at least 5 times. In this case, what else would the Japanese worry about? This is a sure win war.

Because the Battle of Unaraska made Japan take the initiative to adopt radical methods, which was exactly the same as the Chinese people's thoughts. The attack on Alaska itself must be quickly fought and occupied the panoramic view of Alaska in the shortest time, so as to lay a good foundation for future wars. Only by military occupation and then construction, engineers will enter. The shorter the battle time, the longer the engineering personnel will enter, and the more buildings will be built. Only with enough construction volume, Alaska will become a stable base for Japan, and even a steel-like defense line must be built before the interference between the United States and Canada. In this way, even if the United States is strong, it will not be possible to invade Alaska in a short time.

As long as a solid defense line and system is established, the one that has a geographical advantage will not be the United States near the Americas, but Japan. From the United States through Canada to Alaska, the difficulty of the road will become the United States' nightmare. The US military cannot invest a large amount of army to go to Alaska in a short period of time. On the contrary, China, which has the power to control the sea, can invest enough troops anytime and anywhere. According to China's plan, the next 1.5 million troops will be completed in two or three months and will be invested in Alaska. Once Alaska has more than 2 million troops and has a certain stable defense line, it will be unbreakable here.

The American navy is strong, but Japan doesn't have to worry about the navy. The navy naturally has a strong China to take charge. As for the army, although it was the most tragic failure after the Meiji Restoration from the Chinese, the Japanese army's heart has not changed yet. Now with the strengthening of the Chinese, under the same number of circumstances, the Japanese may not be afraid of the United States, let alone, Alaska will become a place for Japan to flourish, and come across the Pacific Ocean, and must protect it.

The choice of the Japanese was expected by the Chinese. China did not interfere with Japan's choice, but from the point of view, it was willing to fight the Japanese to be more unrestrained. The Aleutian Islands have been taken down, and Alaska's barriers are wide open, and there is basically no threat. What the Chinese navy needs to do is to serve as Japan's backing and play a cover for landing operations. With the current protection level of Alaska, there is no port with land-based turrets. This means that several cruisers may play a certain role in escorting, or even cover the Japanese landing. As long as Japan successfully lands on the landing, the Chinese mission will be completed, and the rest will be Japan. This makes the Chinese navy, which is somewhat restricted in the battle at some point, is considered the most idle battle. It will be finished with a few random shots. The rest will naturally be carried out by the Japanese army.

Uehara Yoshizuo began to implement the first combat plan, and then divided the entire Japanese army into at least 27 different parts. Under the escort of various Chinese escort fleets, they attacked the islands around Unaraska at the same time. These islands were within a day's voyage. From the morning, good news came one after another. The target islands were captured one after another. Although no casualties were achieved, the casualties were almost minimal. This made Uehara Yoshizuo very happy. Japan even occupied these islands faster than China's plan. Next, the Alaska Peninsula.

The Alaska Peninsula is quite long, with a total length of 800 kilometers, and there are many volcanoes and mountains distributed in it. China and Japan have not obtained a complete combat map. However, under the aerial photography of reconnaissance aircraft and the emergency drawing of the staff, a sketch was barely obtained. Most of the iconic peaks were marked, and many villages and cities were also clearly visible, especially the key places. As long as one-fifth of the place located in the Alaska Peninsula extends to the Pacific Ocean, the remaining Alaska Peninsula will become the treasure of the Japanese, which is another tens of thousands of square kilometers of territory.

I thought that if I could land on the mainland, I would face more intense resistance, but even Uehara Yongzuo did not expect that they would be so easy. For the Japanese Army, it was also the most relaxing battle in history. Even when attacking North Korea 20 years ago, when I attacked North Korea, I did not have such a leisurely stroll in the courtyard. I almost parade in an armed manner and won.

Although the Qing Dynasty was behind the times, Japan's development was not too high. There was no generation difference between the two sides in terms of weapons and equipment. In addition, China is a new army with a certain foundation and certain combat capabilities. However, it was finally defeated because of Shangguan's decay and difficult to return. However, the United States, let alone Alaska, even if it is the mainland of the United States, what is their army like? It was taken to Europe and was beaten by Germany as soon as it went to the battlefield. One of the most elite divisions was completely wiped out. Even a year later, the US team did not dare to go to the front line without more than 6 months of concentrated training.

Although there have been changes in the United States, there are not many, let alone Alaska, which is a barren land. Only officers and soldiers who are not valued or excluded will be here. They are either local soldiers. Alaska has a population of 1 million. How many local soldiers are there? Under this situation, their combat effectiveness can be imagined.

The port itself is easily attacked from the sea, and it is still a port without a land-based turret. The battleships are just over 250 mm. The main gun of the cruiser is also above 250 mm, enough to hold multiples of the naval guns, and bombard the port. Then the Japanese army took advantage of the chaos to go ashore, advocated the spirit of Bushido, and even had a crazy Japanese army with a little sacrifice in their bones. For the US army, which was negligent in training and had extremely weak fighting will, it was simply a natural nemesis. Perhaps the US army had relied on before, and their weapons might be more advanced than Japan. The so-called gold-hook rifles produced by Japan have completely lagged behind this era.

After China's armed forces, Japan was completely transformed. The total number of light and heavy machine guns in the Japanese division unit reached 1,184, basically tying the number of elite European troops, slightly inferior to Germany, and the same is true for artillery, from 120 mm to 37 war defense artillery, a total of more than 270, which is more than 7 times that of the previous Japanese division. The most important thing is that there are more than 400 mortars, which Japan has never equipped before.

It was these artillery and machine guns that gave Japan the confidence that when a brigade attacked a city with 5,000 people, it encountered tenacious resistance. However, when the logistics troops of the infantry brigade came and the artillery was released, the village that caused at least 100 casualties to Japan suddenly became a Shura Field. Among the 5,000 people, at least 2,500 casualties were killed by artillery, 2,000 were shot dead by the Japanese army, and less than 1,000 were captured, more than half of them were injured.

This is how Japan is. It is extremely cruel when facing the Internet and the resistance is extremely cruel. However, the entire No. 1 combat plan was completed at least 3 days earlier than the prescribed time. After occupying Unaraska Island less than 3 days, the Sino-Japanese coalition forces began to attack Alaska.

The rich place of Alaska is on the southwest coast. It is deeply affected by the oceanic climate. The cold current from the Arctic Ocean rarely affects it. Instead, it is a warm current in the Pacific Ocean. Therefore, as a high latitude of 50 degrees, the temperature in winter does not drop to above minus 15 degrees. Most of the time it is around zero. The temperature from 0 to 25 degrees is considered to be relatively warm and suitable. But even so, the Americans who have long preconceived their ideas still have not developed Alaska, and this is just a sporadic development by the people.

Both China and Japan know that once they attack Alaska, the actions of both China and Japan will be inevitable. Japan has no autonomy. Whether it is its own needs or China's demands, it must take Alaska as soon as possible. China has not taken the United States seriously and even gave up such an important place as Hawaii. What is Alaska? It was hit hard at this time. The United States, which has not yet responded, has no ability to interfere in Alaska, thousands of miles away. Even compared to Hawaii, it is more legally territorial than Hawaii. Unfortunately, they are powerless. This is the importance of sea control. China took advantage of the European War to hold back most of the warships of the Allied Powers. When China attacked the United States, it sank 12 more ships, which caused local imbalance and directly led to the current war situation. The United States suffered a great loss in this way.
