() Just when the British big brother was in conflict, the two younger brothers finally stood up bravely when their big brother was in trouble. On March 29, 1920, the joint naval forces of Australia and New Zealand, on three cruisers,
Under the cover of five destroyers, they captured a small naval supply port of the South China Sea Federation on the island of New Guinea.
This news was like a breath of fresh air, easing the depression in the hearts of the League of Nations and its allies who were under a gloomy cloud. It also boosted the already low morale of the British, and even encouraged those who were eager to move forward.
Try, those countries that are ready to beat up the federation's drowned dog.
On the same day, the Canadian government officially declared war on the South China Sea Federation, and the American government once again submitted a proposal to Congress to declare war on the South China Sea Federation. The Thai government also sent additional troops to the original Thai-Malaysian border. It seems that from this day on,
The righteous force of the West has finally reached a turning point in the war. As long as everyone joins in, the South China Sea Federation, the evil dragon from the East, will be knocked to the ground and will never be able to raise its head again.
However, in this exciting environment, one government was extremely firm, and that was Japan. Not only did Japan reject the invitations from the United States and the United Kingdom to participate in the war twice in a row, but he also unilaterally declared neutrality.
This surprised the federal government very much, because starting from 1895, Taiwan at that time had been in conflict with the Japanese government.
Japan has always been in a state of declaration of war. This state has not been canceled after the establishment of the South China Sea Federation. Therefore, according to international practice, Japan and the Federation are belligerents. There is no unilateral declaration of neutrality between belligerents.
Yes, this is almost equivalent to surrender.
In fact, Japan gritted its teeth and wanted to kill the Federation. Japan's decline from a powerful Asian country to the point where it now needs to sell its dignity to beg for help from other countries is all thanks to the federation's government. But Japan's current government
Fu's mind is quite clear. Unlike countries such as Britain and the United States, most of their interests are in Europe. Although they also attach importance to Asia, due to the constraints of World War I, they have not understood the situation in Asia in detail in recent years.
Since Japan's two new battleships were sunk in its own port and the domestic economy collapsed due to the federal blockade, the three newly appointed governments have all followed a principle, which is to tolerate, tolerate, and tolerate again, even if
The federal government sent troops to seize Ryukyu. As long as Japan did not attack its homeland, Japan could only tolerate it.
After years of intelligence collection and careful analysis, Japan's government finally came to a conclusion: According to the current situation and development momentum of the South China Sea Federation, if there are no major changes, Japan will not be able to survive in the next few decades.
May be the rival of the South China Sea Federation.
This analysis result is an unlikely result for any country's government to accept, but Japan's government accepted it. From the emperor to the cabinet members, they all pinched their noses and accepted it. But they have a plan, they
Prepare to use a generation's time to adopt the strategy of pretending to be a grandson, paralyzing and fighting to restore the Japanese government and the federal government.
normal relationship between fu. Then they will do their best to send Japanese scholars from all walks of life to study in federal institutions of higher learning, just like they sent envoys to the Tang Dynasty in the past, striving to learn the military technology of the federation and use it to arm themselves.
From this perspective, the Japanese nation has a very good habit, which is learning, unconditional learning, as long as it is beneficial to their country. Then learn it, and then adjust its own structure and change itself.
Adapt to these advanced things instead of asking advanced things to adapt to your own shortcomings.
This time Japan's insistence on not going to war with the Federation is because they have seen part of the Federation's true strength. These include the Army's armored vehicles, tanks and the Navy's aircraft carriers and aircraft and other weapons.
There is no airtight wall in the world, especially for a neighbor like Japan who is both very smart and very capable of pretending to be a grandson. Therefore, many military operations and exercises of the Federation are the things that Japan is most concerned about and most concerned about.
Through the collection and analysis of intelligence on the various military operations of the Federal Government on the Nanyang Islands, Ri himself has probably mastered part of the data on the military and national strength of the South China Sea Federation. Coupled with the intelligence spying of various intelligence personnel and agents, Ri
I have come to a conclusion: the South China Sea Federation has developed very rapidly in recent years. From economy to military to technology, it can be said to be a blowout development.
In the past few years, dozens of products from the South China Sea Federation have been sold all over the world, and Japan has noticed that most of the products exported from the Federation are finished products with high technological content, while most of the products imported by the Federation are
Various raw materials, this shows that the federal government has earned a large amount of foreign funds from this, and it also illustrates the degree of scientific and technological development of the South China Sea Federation from one side.
In addition, Japan himself also learned about some of the actual conditions of the federal army's operations in the Nanyang Islands through various channels and means. After all, at this time, the federal government already included nearly a hundred ethnic groups and millions of square kilometers of land.
It is basically impossible to implement an information blockade like the original Taiwan Island. Therefore, Japan himself obtained a lot of first-hand military information and obtained a correct assessment of the military strength of the South China Sea Federation.
Many military experts in Japan, including many navy and army veterans, put aside their original resentment towards the South China Sea Federation for the sake of the country's future and participated in this assessment. In the end, these experts and veterans came to the conclusion
A very surprising conclusion is that the current military strength of the South China Sea Federation is very powerful, which is reflected in three aspects.
First, since the South China Sea Federation occupied French Indochina, it has greatly reduced the amount of various raw materials imported from abroad. After occupying the Philippine Islands and part of the Dutch East Indies, it even imports a large amount of raw materials from the United States every year.
The amount of oil in the country suddenly decreased a lot, and during World War I, the federal government
fu has exported grain, textiles, petroleum products, medicines and special steel to both warring parties on a large scale more than once. The quantity made the Japanese people admire and lust after them. From this point, it can at least be explained that the federal government
In terms of resources, it has been able to be self-sufficient and has a lot of wealth. In a war, especially a large-scale war, the reserve of resources is the key to victory.
Second, although the South China Sea Federation's navy does not have many large surface ships, not even a standard battleship, the number and quality of its submarines have been greatly improved, and in recent years, Japan's intelligence
By bribing local fishermen, the personnel obtained several unclear federal large-scale
Photos of warships, coupled with some local rumors and rumors, the Japanese military, especially the navy, came to the conclusion that the navy of the South China Sea Federation is developing a large surface ship that can carry a large number of aircraft at sea, and
It is likely that the aircraft can take off and land from such a ship.
In the World War I that just ended, the United Kingdom and the United States also tested military ships similar to this kind of ship, but the effect was not very good, and the navies of the two countries were not very interested in such ships, so there has never been any
Invest more in research.
But from the possible existence of federal ships, Japan saw a brand new way of future naval warfare, which is to use ships carrying a large number of bombers or torpedo attack aircraft to attack local fleets far away from the local fleet.
Real aircraft bombing and torpedo attack.ri version
After conducting simulation exercises using more advanced aircraft from around the world at that time, the Navy was surprised to find that as long as the power of the orangutan aircraft was increased and the range was increased by half, this new method of maritime combat could be realized.
Therefore, this makes ribenzheng
fu is even more worried and frightened, because it is very likely that the federal navy already has this kind of aircraft and this kind of ship that can take off and land aircraft. If this is the case, it illustrates a problem: the distance between the federation and Japan,
It's not that it's shortened, but that the gap is getting wider and wider. Not only with Japan, at least in terms of navy and air force, the Federation has left all the countries in the world behind.
Third, there is the inconspicuous army of the Federation. At first, Japan itself did not pay attention to the Federation Army, which has only more than 300,000 people, because since the Taiwan era, the Federation has been famous for its powerful navy. Among them, Japan
I suffered the most severe blow.
However, while studying the various landing tactics of the Federal Navy for many times, more and more Japanese naval generals have raised a question, that is, the landing Federal Army seems to be very powerful, among which the Japanese naval generals are most surprised.
What is surprising is the speed of their attack. Although they are all naval generals, many of them have participated in landing operations in Northeast China and North Korea. According to their estimates, the speed of the Federal Army's attack is not only faster than Japan is proud of.
There are so many armies, even the German Army, which is the largest army in the world, is out of reach.
As a result, these questions were brought to the Japanese Army. As a result, the Federal Army was also included in the research focus of the Japanese military. After a long period of intelligence collection and verification, the proud Japanese Army finally had to admit that this
In addition to being somewhat small in number, the Federal Army's degree of mechanization, superior weapons and equipment, and rapid logistical support have far exceeded any army in this era. The only shortcoming of the Federal Army is that it has too few people. (To be completed.)
