Japan's population is not small, after all, it has a population of 7000 million.But the war has been fought for so many years, and the young and middle-aged Japanese have suffered a lot.There were not a few casualties, and even more wounded.Although compared with the Soviet Union and Germany, there are a lot less casualties in Japan.

After all, the Pacific War and the India-Myanmar War were both very intense.

There are also a large number of Japanese troops fighting against Britain and the United States on the front line. In places such as the Indochina Peninsula, the Philippines, the Mariana Islands, the Solomon Islands, New Guinea, and the Ryukyu Islands, the Japanese army has deployed heavy troops, adding up to 400 million troops.With so many troops on the front line, the result is that there is a serious shortage of young and middle-aged people in Japan.Otherwise, those reserve forces in Japan would not be full of people in their 50s and children in their [-]th or [-]th year.

There are also many factories, including the arsenal, which are supposed to be done by men, but many of them are worked by female workers.

It's all because of lack of people.

Under such circumstances, Japan has to mobilize troops and provide 200 million recruits to the front line.By the time this mobilization is over, there will really not be many young and middle-aged people in Japan.

"The news goes to North Korea to get them ready for war."

"Yes."

Duan Xun is also analyzing the situation in Japan.

As long as Japan does not fall to Britain and the United States, Duan Xun is not worried about any other choices in Japan.In fact, even if Japan is falling to Britain and the United States, Duan Xun is only a little worried.Because China is now fully prepared, and no one can stop China from becoming the leader of Asia.Japan can't, Britain and the United States can't, even if they unite.

China has been preparing for such a long time, how can it let other people cut off.

If anyone opposes China's grand strategy, Duan Xun really dares to use the atomic bomb in his hand.China has been accumulating energy for many years and keeping a low profile for many years. It can be said that the current situation is becoming more and more favorable to China.I dare not say that everything is under control, but China's general trend has been established, and no one can stop it.

"Chairman, Japan is going to fight a war on the Korean Peninsula. It is not only to keep the southern part of the Korean Peninsula, but also to give us some face. It is estimated that the Japanese military is very dissatisfied with the conditions we proposed."

"It's a good idea."

Duan Xun smiled.

There is a gap between China and Japan in terms of industrial technology.If you produce more of any item, you will naturally become familiar with it and have more experience.With experience, many deficiencies can be improved.

Therefore, it can be said that a large industrial country will eventually become a powerful industrial country.

As long as the industrial scale increases, the industrial technology will also increase.It's just that some technologies rise fast, and some technology breakthroughs are slow.

The same is true for weapons, which cannot be separated from such laws.

The industrial scales of China and Japan are different, and the output of weapons is also very different. As a result, there is also a big gap in weapons and equipment.Especially for army weapons, the gap is huge.Japan's fiscal revenue is far behind that of China's, and its military expenditure is several times behind that of China's.This is still Japan has been fighting, but Japan's military expenditure is still much worse than China's.

what's the result?

It can be seen in the weapons and equipment.

Like tanks, China has produced more than 20 types of tanks in the past [-] years.For heavy tanks alone, China has three models.Because China has a large area, the tanks produced in China are tested in various places to see which tank is suitable for different terrains.Not to mention anything else, the number of tanks scrapped in China's annual training is equivalent to Japan's annual tank output.It can be seen how many tanks China has produced and how crazy the tank training is.

Currently, Japan's tank models on the Korean Peninsula are mainly Type 95 light tanks, Type 98 light tanks, and Type 97 medium tanks.Of course, these tanks are also the main tanks of the Japanese army.

In fact, the Japanese army fought against the tanks of the British army on the India-Myanmar battlefield, but the main force was the tanks exported by China.The main tanks of both the British army and the Japanese army were once Chinese tanks.

These few tanks produced by Japan can only be passively beaten when they encounter medium tanks and heavy tanks produced in China.Now the Korean Independence Army is equipped with a large number of Chinese tanks, and it is equipped with more than 300 heavy tanks alone.

"Open all the airfields on the border of the Yalu River to the Korean Independence Army. Tell the leaders of the Korean Independence Army that the Japanese army is at the end of its strength, and the elite are on the front lines of Britain and the United States. There are not many elite troops in their country, and the troops they support this time are all with poor combat effectiveness. The troops. Let the North Korean troops boldly attack, and under the cover of the air force, they can crush them. The southern part of the Korean peninsula dare not say that there is a flat river, but it is also the best terrain to use tank troops. Let the Korean Independence Army make good use of their tanks Troops, don't give the Japanese any chance to react."

"Yes."

How to fight is a matter of the front line.

But Duan Xun couldn't help but say a few words.The current Korean Independence Army has three mechanized armies with more than 1400 tank units.The terrain in southern North Korea is actually very suitable for tank troops to attack.

Germany's blitzkrieg is very suitable for a small place like the Korean peninsula.

"Also, pass the news from our side to Britain and the United States. Let Britain and the United States know that we have begun to fulfill the agreement of the Almaty meeting."

The Japanese military is full of confidence.

In other words, the generals of the Japanese radical faction do not know how much they are, who they are, and who they are.These Japanese military officers only know that they are very powerful, they only know that Japan is very powerful, and they don't take anyone seriously.After Xiaoji Guozhao made his decision, he planned to teach the Korean Independence Army a good lesson on the Korean peninsula.

Prepare to kill chickens and scare monkeys, let China see Japan's strength, don't be so aggressive, and put forward conditions that Japan cannot accept.First destroy the Korean Independence Army, in order to force China to return to the negotiating table.

Therefore, Japan immediately moved troops quickly.

But time is running out.

There is less than a week left before North Korea proposes to electrify, and it is not so easy to deploy troops.Japan can only deploy troops in a hurry and mobilize a large number of transport ships, hoping to catch up.While Japan focused on the Korean Peninsula, the US Pacific Fleet formed an attack fleet and began to attack the Mariana Islands.

In fact, the U.S. military has not completely captured the Marshall Islands at present, and the Marshall Islands are still fighting fiercely.

However, the U.S. military is really powerful and is attacking the Marshall Islands, and still has spare power to attack other places of the Japanese army.The Mariana Islands are different from the Marshall Islands. The Mariana Islands are very important islands in Japan's core defense circle, deploying a large number of elite troops.

The Japanese navy also sent its main force to fight.

In the Mariana naval battle, there were nearly 30 aircraft carriers on both sides, and the United States was twice that of Japan.The United States also has 3 battleships, 9 heavy cruisers, 16 light cruisers, and even more destroyers and supply ships.A total of 180 or so surface ships participated.

Japan is also not to be outdone.

In addition to the aircraft carrier, there are 9 battleships, 6 heavy cruisers, 11 light cruisers, and about 70 surface ships.What was dispatched was the First Mobile Fleet of the Japanese Navy, the elite of the Japanese Navy.

In addition to these surface ships, both sides sent a large number of submarines to participate in the battle.Both lineups are very luxurious.The result was a disastrous defeat for the Japanese army. Four aircraft carriers were sunk and two were seriously injured. 4 battleships, 2 heavy cruiser, 2 light cruisers were sunk, and more than 1 destroyers were sunk.The planes brought over were almost lost, with more than 20 planes lost.These pilots participating in the naval battle are all elite Japanese pilots.

Not only were the casualties so high, but the Japanese army also lost almost all the important islands in the northern part of the Mariana Islands.In particular, Saipan, Japan's military base in the north, fell into the hands of the US military.

Saipan is very important and is the most important military base in the Mariana Islands.More importantly, if the US military builds an air base on Saipan, then the entire Japanese mainland will be within the bombing radius of the US military.Moreover, the loss of Saipan created a huge loophole in the core defense circle of the Japanese army.

The Mariana naval battle caused heavy losses to the Japanese navy.The main force of the Japanese Navy, the First Mobile Fleet of the Japanese Navy was almost wiped out.The fiasco of the First Mobile Fleet was a completely unbearable failure for the Japanese Navy.

It is different from the fanaticism of the Japanese Army.

When Hideki Tojo was about to go to war with the United States in the early years, there were already many voices of opposition from the Japanese Navy.Because the Japanese Navy believes that industrial countries like the United States are not easy to mess with.In the final analysis, the navy is a duel of warships. In this regard, the United States has strong industrial strength and can build many more warships than Japan.Many generals of the Japanese Navy have studied in Europe and the United States, and they have a real feeling for the strength of these industrial powers.It's just that the Minister of the Navy at the time, Shigetaro Shimada, followed Hideki Tojo's footsteps, so the Japanese navy could only follow.

But now that the war has been fought, the Japanese navy has become less and less confident about the war.Because the warships of the U.S. Navy follow one after another, no matter how many warships you destroy, the United States can build them for you in a short period of time.The U.S. warships seem to be endless, so that the Japanese navy has no hope of winning.

When the Mariana naval battle failed, the Japanese navy was immersed in disappointment from top to bottom.Nagumo Chuichi, commander of the Japanese Pacific Fleet, finally chose to commit suicide after receiving the news of the failure of the Mariana naval battle.As the commander of the Pacific Fleet, Nagumo Chuichi has been fighting with the US Navy.But until now, Nagumo Chuichi was really desperate, because he couldn't see the slightest possibility of victory.

Nagumo's suicide caused a sensation in the Japanese military circles.

It can be said that it directly hit the morale of the Japanese army.

But it doesn't end there. In the early morning of April 1944, 4, after the ultimatum time passed, the North Korean army started their unification battle from the east and west, with four tank regiments as the vanguard.Resisting the North Korean army at the forefront is the army of the Korean Empire.

The combat power is really vulnerable.

The army of the Korean Empire is a newly formed unit, formerly a police force under Japanese control.Later, seeing that the situation on the Korean Peninsula was getting worse, Japan helped the "Korean Empire" form an army.They are all based on the expansion of the police force.The number of people looks quite large, but many of these troops have never fought, or have not received much training at all.

How much combat power can the puppet army have?
