510 Condition
When Xu Zhenpeng landed in Keelung, Grace was also organizing the landing in Hokkaido. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
In fact, just three days ago, the Northern Xinjiang Military Region had already begun to organize air strikes on Hokkaido.
Compared with the Japanese, Lan Fang's biggest advantage now is the air force, since there is an advantage, then we must maximize the advantage as much as possible, we must not have the kindness of a woman, and attack the enemy's strengths with our own shortcomings, it will be a tragedy.
The Japanese Northbound Fleet was indeed completely wiped out in the "Battle of Ningbei Port", but the Japanese Navy still has a foundation after all, and even the Japanese Navy still has the last battleship "Kirishima", which is a huge threat to the Northern Fleet, which is still dominated by destroyers and submarines, and all the actions of the Northern Fleet will be restricted until this threat is lifted.
Compared with jet aircraft, propeller aircraft are indeed backward, but propeller aircraft have the advantage of propeller aircraft, that is, the requirements for airports are not high.
The bombers equipped by Lanfang can take off smoothly as long as they are on a flat land, even if they are on the grass, as long as there are no potholes, just find a place, and build Lanfang's airport.
As the war progressed on Sakhalin, Lanfang's airfield continued to advance southward, until it reached the southernmost tip of Sakhalin.
In fact, the bombers that took off from here could already bomb Tokyo directly if they didn't think about returning home.
Bombing Tokyo, this is a huge temptation for all bomber pilots, it can be said that if Lan Fang wants to set up a death squad now, it will not be difficult to form a bomber formation that will fly directly to Tokyo.
However, Qin Zhiyuan has not been crazy to that extent, and Chen Kangjian is still sensible, so the combat scope of the Air Force is still limited to Hokkaido for the time being.
It's much simpler, even the southernmost tip of Hokkaido, only 500 kilometers from Sakhalin's airfield, and Ranfang's bombers can cover the entire territory of Hokkaido.
In fact, Hokkaido did not have many valuable strategic goals, and before 1869, Hokkaido was not even called Hokkaido, but was called Ezo.
"Ezo" refers to the Ainu people, who are the indigenous people of the Hokkaido region, so the Ainu are also called Ezo people by the Japanese.
In 1869, the Japanese government established the Hakokan Inquisition in Hokkaido and renamed Ezo to Hokkaido, which began direct rule over Hokkaido, and at the same time, in 1890, a large number of Japanese entered Hokkaido and developed Hokkaido.
Counting the time, the large-scale development of Hokkaido by the Japanese is only a matter of the last two or three decades.
Twenty or thirty years, that is, a generation, the old generation has not died, the new generation has become the backbone of society, and there is still hope of stripping Hokkaido from Japan, if it is a few decades later, it will become a fait accompli.
Divest!
I have to say that Lan Fang's game of chess is indeed big enough.
Korsakov, which in the 21st century was the largest port in the south of Sakhalin, but after Lan Fang occupied the whole of Sakhalin, it had a better name - Lelang.
At present, about 13,000 Japanese are building a large-scale port that will later become the military port of the Lanfang Navy.
The 13,000 Japanese were all Japanese soldiers who were captured in the Battle of Koyadai, and this number is likely to increase further in the future.
Lan Fang was never brutal, and if the Japanese soldiers laid down their arms, Lan Fang would not have been able to kill them all.
Sakhalin Island is not the Kanto region of the Republic of China, there are no people living here, that is, there is no such thing as doing evil, since you don't die, then you won't die.
Not all Japanese people were loyal to the emperor, even during World War II, when the Japanese worshiped the Japanese emperor to the extreme, when the Americans attacked Okinawa and the Japanese were completely defeated, and after the Japanese army was ordered to massacre the locals of Okinawa, some Japanese troops laid down their arms and surrendered.
There are indeed many traitors in the Republic of China, but there are also many "Japanese traitors" in Japan, and in this regard, all nationalities are the same.
Right next to Lelang, a huge airfield is under emergency construction, and it is here that Griff directs Ranfang's army as it prepares to land in Hokkaido.
At the same time, the Air Force was patrolling over Hokkaido, attacking any worthy targets, including the Japanese 8th and 9th Divisions, which were already preparing for defense in Hokkaido.
Similar to the situation in Yingzhou, although there are many ports in Hokkaido, there are not many suitable places for landing, and they are all concentrated in the southwest, and it is not easy for Cliff to find a suitable landing ground.
Fortunately, the 11th and 9th Divisions, which were preparing for the landing, were not armored divisions and did not have too many heavy weapons, which made the landing a lot easier.
"The reconnaissance plane has been conducting reconnaissance in the nearby waters, and has not found any traces of the little devil's warship, and they are ready to attack at any time, as long as the 'Kirishima' dares to come out, he will definitely not be able to go back," Xiong Enhua, chief ......of staff, was reporting to Greef.
Griff just nodded habitually and didn't say much.
Xiong Enhua was not affected by Greif, and continued his reporting work: "The 9th Division has boarded the ship from Ningbei Port, and will arrive at Lelang Outer Port tomorrow morning, and then it will join our 11th Division and land in Hokkaido together, and the destroyer fleet has been dispatched to ensure the safety of the waterway of the Soya Strait in the past two days......"
Grave still didn't speak.
To be honest, with a boss like Griff, many people will have a headache, because the leader does not express his opinion, which will make his subordinates at a loss. Of course, if you say it from another aspect, this will also make the subordinates conscientious to avoid mistakes, but ensure the enthusiasm of the subordinates.
"Lao Shi has a little opinion on you not letting the 18th Division go to Hokkaido, I heard that Lao Shi has been wielding a little fierce whip on the construction site in the past two days......" Xiong Enhua and Ge Lifu are also old acquaintances, and they will tease Ge Lifu from time to time.
"You go and scold him!" Griff finally opened Chrysostom, and his language style was concise enough: "If he has a chance, we have to seize it." ”
It is necessary to grasp it, Lan Fang's devastating and decaying annihilation of the Japanese army's southbound fleet and northbound fleet have shocked the melon-eating masses who do not know the truth, and the Americans and the British have offered to mediate this war almost at the same time, and their attitude is quite resolute.
This is easy to understand, just as the Americans and the British did not want the Japanese fleet to go south to attack Coconut City, the Americans and the British also did not want the Lanfang people to completely defeat the Japanese.
Moreover, Lan Fang's ability in this war has made the Americans and the British feel enough threat, and the Americans and the British must definitely limit Lan Fang in order to ensure the so-called East Asian balance.
"Restrictions? The current Lanfang is not something that the British and Americans can restrict. Qin Zhiyuan, who was sitting on the tower, was full of confidence.
Like the Black Swan Castle in Paris, the Black Swan Castle on Penglai Island also has a tower, which is Qin Zhiyuan's favorite place to stay.
"Lan Fang's potential is indeed enough, but it can't be compared with old powers like Britain and the United States at present, and it is still necessary to give in when it is time to concede, but before that, the Japanese must pay enough price." Louis Renault, who stayed in Lanfang and Qin Zhiyuan, remained on the same front, and still put forward their opinions appropriately.
France and Lanfang are now allies, and at the same time that Lanfang declared war on Japan, France also declared war on Japan.
Of course, the French did not do well in this war, but this did not prevent the French from reaping some benefits after the war, even if the French did more than declare war, and they should have gained something for this friendship.
"Sooner or later, the British and Americans will pay for their balance." William III, who was returning to Europe tomorrow, began to draw circles.
As the Emperor of Germany, Wilhelm III could not stay in Lanfang for a long time, although William III and Cecilia liked the sun and sand of Lanfang, but Germany was even more worrying to Wilhelm III, even if he was not happy, he had to return to Germany to embrace the cold and wet.
William III's trip was not in vain, just when William III was busy with Qin Zhiyuan, Prince Marx was busy talking to Huang Bohan about conditions, nearly a month later, Prince Marx signed a series of agreements with Huang Bohan on behalf of Germany, covering light industry, heavy industry, mineral resources and so on, although Huang Bohan was concerned about the alliance with France, and Germany has not yet developed to the level of an ally, but in the case of not involving war, it is almost the same as an ally.
Germany's industrial strength is indeed strong, but Germany also has shortcomings, the market for industrial products is on the one hand, and industrial raw materials are also on the other.
Lanfang's industrial base is just starting, but the starting point is very high, after all, Lanfang almost moved the German factory directly, once Lanfang's factories are all completed, Lanfang will have a strong industrial strength.
Lanfang was originally an important source of raw materials in Europe, especially rubber and oil, two important industrial raw materials, and has always had a large output.
Maintaining good relations with Lanfang was the most important job of William III, even more important than the repayment of the 20 billion pounds in compensation for the world war.
"East Asia is now unbalanced, and only one country is destined to rise here, and now it seems that it can only be Lanfang." In any case, Qin Zhiyuan must completely destroy the hope of Japan's rise.
"The British and Americans will not sit back and watch Japan be annexed by Lanfang, so be more restrained and don't over-irritate the British and Americans." Louis Reynaud was in his right mind.
"Who said I was going to annex Japan? Aren't you talking? Now that the conditions have not yet been negotiated, the war will always have to be fought. Qin Zhiyuan pretended to be innocent.
"As for the conditions you proposed, I wouldn't agree to them!" Louis Renault was dismissive.
Condition...... yes, that's a good opportunity for blackmail.
