Chapter 1687 The face of the United States
The first collision between the United States and Japan in Alaska ended like this. In less than 24 hours of war, a heart-warming victory, Japan achieved more than 250,000 enemies with extremely small casualties. This was a shot of a strong man for Japan to come to a foreign country to fight against the United States, the most powerful industrial country in the world. Although Japan has always despised the United States in its propaganda and said something like white pigs, the top leaders have no idea, that is, China's strong support and fortifications, giving them a little confidence, but what will happen depends on the specific war. Some pessimistic people even believe that at the beginning, the United States and Japan should be weak, relying on Juneau's fortifications to consume the US military, and then retreat step by step, exchanging space for time, and almost destroying the entire Alaska, it is possible to share the same fate with the United States.
Even the arrogant person cannot think that Japan can easily defeat the United States and use huge losses to force the United States out of the battlefield. According to Japan's estimate, it takes at least 3 million people to force the United States to retreat. However, now, in one-tenth of the battle results in one day, and even the loss is extremely small, which makes everyone happy. This not only proves that the Americans are not that scary, but they even have the possibility of defending them in Juneau.
This is a great encouragement. For Japan, a complete Alaska and a broken Alaska are completely different results. All construction in Alaska currently has invested huge investments. Although as long as Alaska is in and keeps it, what should come back will still come back. However, unlike the complete one, Alaska has begun to continuously generate benefits. As long as it is held near Juno, the Japanese will spend the smallest price to obtain the entire Alaska.
From this battle, the Japanese mentality completely changed. The entire government unified its cognition from top to bottom. Although the subsequent defense line was still under construction, it was not so urgent. The main energy was still focused on Juneau. According to Kawasaki Miyan, even if the US military could break these defense lines, it would pay a huge price. The entire Juneau defense line might consume 4 million, or even more US troops.
Japan, because of this war, was also rewarded with Kawasaki Miyan, who won the victory of this battle. He received the first first-class general medal in Alaska, and was promoted from an army general to a general, and reached the highest peak of the army. For Kawasaki Miyan and some soldiers who made military achievements, they were also highly publicized by Japan. To a certain extent, this is also a propaganda strategy. For Japan, the United States is opening the door of Japan, and now, the United States is also the world's number one industrial country. Such a country is a very big threat to Japan, which has not yet fully established its foothold. After a vanguard of nearly 300,000 troops, the army of ** was killed, the remaining fled in a hurry. There are 300,000 today, and there will be 500,000, or even 1 million in the future.
Although the 4 million US-Canadian coalition is very large, it is also all that the United States and Canada can mobilize. As long as this coalition is completely defeated, the United States will definitely not be able to organize such a large army anymore. Japan will gain the right to gain a foothold in Alaska. As long as it is supported by China, they will definitely achieve great development, integrate into the Americas, obtain the strongest foundation, break away from the sorrow of the former island country, and truly become the foundation for a strong country.
The United States may not be able to deal with it. Canada is definitely a soft-legged shrimp. The entire Canada has only a population of 10 million. Japan's extreme military power that can be mobilized is half that of Canada. The combat effectiveness shown by Canada on the front is simply too bad. When the Japanese think of Canada's nearly ten million square kilometers of land, the Japanese are extremely coveted. Canada does not have the ability to develop these fertile lands, let alone comprehensive utilization, but Japan can.
Being defeated by China and being included in the Chinese circle, the Japanese began to re-understand China, including China's development and China's current status. One of the most distinctive problems is the country. A huge country not only represents huge resources, but also a huge strategic depth. As long as Japan takes over Canada, it will not be a problem to compete with the United States in the Americas in the future. At that time, Japan may even have the possibility of rising.
Besides, if you gain a foothold in the Americas and turn the entire strategy from Asia to America, it will be easier to escape from China's control. As long as you absorb enough nutrients from China, Japan can completely become independent from China. At that time, Japan will be completely different from the previous ones that it was before. It was only possible before. After this battle, after seeing the strength of the defensive positions and the strength of the US military, Japan was already convinced.
A series of publicity activities around Kawasaki's beauty and some meritorious people started in Alaska. Japan, which had stronger confidence, began to burst out with strong strength. In the following month, the production of industrial products increased by at least 15% compared with before, and it continued. This is a huge benefit. With the support of China, Japan directly completed the industrialization of light industry and part of heavy industry. In terms of production efficiency, it has become second only to China and Germany. The most important thing is that Japan has a larger population than Germany. Under this circumstance, the output value actually began to rise, quietly surpassing Russia, France, and the United Kingdom. However, no one, including the United States, has realized that Japan has become a powerful force, not a younger brother following China.
Japan has gained a foothold in America and started a cheating development. In the future, Japan will become an important force. The United States' geographical advantage is completely ruined under the magical stroke of China. Even if the United States and Japan have a short-term cooperation in the future, it is easy to cooperate between countries and border between two powerful countries, and cooperation and struggle must be parallel. The United States will no longer participate in two world wars on a large scale, just like in history, but the local area has almost been affected. Japan will become their biggest enemy.
In fact, unlike the joy and encouragement of Japan, the United States was full of sorrow. The result of Juno's failure on the front line was almost immediately reported to the U.S. headquarters. When receiving this battle report, no one could believe it. Is this a lie on April Fool's Day? The reason why the United States mobilized more than 2 million troops in this war was of course because it attached importance to Japan. Of course, the United States knew that Japan was heavily guarded by Juno's side, and 300,000 people might not be able to defeat the Japanese. However, these people were to gain a foothold and establish a stable platform for the follow-up troops. What really promoted the victory of the entire battle was the follow-up troops. As long as millions of follow-up troops arrived, they would divide into several routes and attack different areas of Juno. This was the rushing over like a mountain of Mount Tai, making the Japanese lose sight of the other.
Of course, if Japan is vulnerable, there is a possibility that 300,000 people will achieve huge results. However, I didn’t expect that the 300,000 troops will be defeated without much harm to the Japanese army. The vanguard suffered a heavy blow, which was beyond the expectations of the United States. In the eyes of the United States, an armed parade that was originally like a wandering in the courtyard became like this. After asking the officers who fled back, they had a deep understanding of this battle. The United States was transferred to a pit. Although I don’t know why Japan could judge their location so accurately, it is certain that there are still a series of traps in the relative position.
The subsequent US military needs to pay more attention to this point. When stationing, you must be careful enough to conduct firepower reconnaissance. To a certain extent, you cannot choose the most suitable place, but choose a second-rate or even a third-rate place. To a certain extent, when setting up a camp, you can detect the underground, and at least be about 7 meters without any ambush. As for the land below 7 meters, the earth is quite heavy, and 3 meters of explosives can also threaten the upper level army. Once this distance becomes less than 7 meters, there may still be a threat, but the power of the explosion will be reduced to an acceptable level and will not be so lethal to the US military.
Why are the Japanese so powerful? Some officers carefully studied the practice of the vanguard troops. There was no mistake and did not find the explosives below. This could not be considered a mistake. If they were not, they would not do this. Similar tactics were too rare. They were not forced into the camp. The camp was chosen by them. Although they would follow some conditions, in a hurry, what did the Japanese make sure of it? They would definitely choose such conditions. These are full of mysteries. But when considering this, it was useless. Things had happened. The Japanese bet right and they suffered huge losses.
The most important thing is Japan's own combat effectiveness. Whether it is bunkers, machine guns, and tactics shown by Japan. In the attacks of thousands of artillery, Japan still showed stability and strong lethality. On this point, it had to increase the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army to a higher level. This is a powerful opponent. Now it is not to consider the relationship of failure before. For the United States, failure is not scary. In the first battle, more than ten divisions entering Europe in advance lost 300,000 people in succession, and there is no problem. Don't be afraid of the losses. The key is where the losses are. Japan has used this battle to indicate that Japan is not a weak spot, but an opponent that must be faced. If it does not face it, it will probably suffer a big loss. (To be continued.)
