Section 1354 Japan's Second Pearl Harbor
On 5 September, representatives of Britain and Argentina arrived in Brasilia to begin a preparatory meeting for formal negotiations. &*Fastest update** mainly discussed the content of the ceasefire negotiations between the two sides, as well as the number of representatives on both sides of the negotiations. In fact, this is because South America has always been the backyard of the United States, and the United States wants to use this opportunity to maintain its position in South America, and there is no way to do it, because the energy bloc has established a new naval base in the Americas, and you must know that this is the backyard of the Americans, and what is this doing? The Cuban Missile Crisis of that year? At the same time, it has won more bargaining chips for Britain. At first, the Argentines refused to participate in the United States, but finally agreed to the United States to participate in the negotiations, and at the same time, Argentina also asked China to participate in the negotiations, because according to the Americans, China was actually involved in the war, so China must also participate in the negotiations. In the end, it was decided that both the United States and China would participate in the ceasefire talks, with Argentina and China on the one hand, Britain and the United States on the other, and the United States believed that China could not stir up a storm in its backyard, no matter how hard it tried, because when the United States announced that it would escort the British fleet, the Chinese had already backed down. But the United States miscalculated this move.
On 1 September, the four parties of Afghanistan, China, Britain, and the United States began formal cease-fire talks in Brasilia, which mainly included: first, the ownership of the Falklands; second, the exchange of prisoners of war between the two sides; and third, the issue of war reparations. The UK and Argentina each sent 1o negotiators, the US and China sent only 5 negotiators, and of course one of the Chinese negotiators was from the energy bloc.
The two sides first negotiated the ownership of the Falklands, and since the Falklands had been completely occupied by Argentina, and the British expeditionary fleet was completely destroyed, and was no longer able to take it back from Argentina, the British did not have much incentive to bargain on this issue. However, the British made many efforts to contain Argentina and China on other issues. In the end, in the face of the facts, the British only gave up their claim to sovereignty over the Falklands, and Argentina also agreed that they would guarantee the rights and obligations of a citizen of British descent on the island, and would not treat these people as second-class citizens because of this war, and said that they could give these people the right to choose whether to join Argentine nationality, and if they were unwilling to join Argentine nationality, they could leave and ensure their property and personal safety。
On 15 September, the second round of negotiations between Argentina, China, Britain and the United States was held, and the issue discussed this time was the exchange of prisoners of war. Throughout the Second Falklands War, Argentina captured more than 20,000 British soldiers (mainly the two British 6th Brigades and two 6th Brigades on the 6th Falklands, which surrendered to the Argentine army after receiving instructions from home in order to avoid unnecessary casualties after the British expeditionary fleet was defeated). And the British captured only more than 2oo people in Argentina, among them the crew of a 2o9 submarine. Almost everything else is a pilot. Since China and the United States are not captured in each other's hands, this issue is mainly negotiated between Britain and Argentina. Argentina captured a total of 217 British pilots (including 52 American pilots who had temporarily naturalized as British nationals, who had become British citizens in order to avoid being treated as mercenaries), while the British captured only 153 Argentine pilots. The British demanded the release of all pilots on both sides, as these pilots were the most valuable of the captives, and combat-tested pilots could be arguably more valuable than gold. But Argentina only agreed to exchange pilots in equal quantities, and the surplus pilots demanded that Britain exchange them for 1oo kilograms of gold per pilot. If this is calculated, then Britain will have to pay Argentina 6. 4 tons of gold to get back all your pilots. In terms of other personnel, Argentina captured 55o British special forces, more than 22ooo ordinary soldiers, while the British captured Argentines only 54 submarine officers and men, including 12 officers. Argentina agreed to the British request to exchange special forces for submarine officers and soldiers, but the exchange was in equal quantities, and the other British soldiers had to ask the British to "buy" them back at the price of British life insurance. At that time, the average life insurance per person in the UK was 1oo0,000 pounds, which was equivalent to 1.48 million US dollars, or more than 5oo yuan. If Britain "buys" at this price, then Britain will have to pay Argentina as much as 2.3 billion pounds, which is more than 2ooo billion yuan. This is simply impossible for Britain to bear. Therefore, the UK will never agree to this request. The British directly demanded that both sides release all prisoners of war, but the Argentines would never sell this for a British. In the end, after the mediation of Brazil and other countries, the two sides reached an agreement, Britain paid Argentina a lump sum of 1.5o billion pounds, and the two sides jointly released all prisoners of war. And Argentina does not want the pound, because the pound is of little use in its hands, and Argentina has begun to boycott British goods collectively. Therefore, Argentina asked Britain to pay yuan, because Argentina imported a large amount of weapons and equipment from energy groups during the war, and these were basically purchased in the form of loans, so if Argentina wants to repay this part of the funds, it must take out yuan. Britain has no other way, because in this solution, Britain has taken a lot of advantage, and finally agreed to pay 16.5o billion yuan to Argentina, now, the market value of the yuan will immediately soar, because China has been controlling the number of yuan, the UK wants so much, then the market pressure on the yuan is not small, and finally the British spent more than 2oo billion pounds to buy so much yuan, so the British did not take much advantage, more than half of the money went into Li Cong's pocket, after all, the energy group hoarded the yuan is an astronomical amount, Li Cong is still the first time to taste the thing of going out with his own money to earn a circle and coming back, and then making a lot of money, of course, for Argentina who is so cooperative, Li Cong will not be disadvantaged, and directly gave Argentina dozens of air force fighters that he retreated.
On September 2o, the third round of negotiations was held between Argentina, China, Britain and the United States, and the content of this negotiation was war reparations, which was also the most difficult point to reconcile. Since Argentina had effectively won the Second Falklands War, Argentina had the right to demand war reparations from the British. The Argentines listed their losses in the war, including the sacrifice of 5,218 people (mainly the soldiers of the 6th Army who died when resisting the British to board the 6, as well as more than 3o pilots, 54 submarine officers and men, and more than 25o ship officers and men), the loss of two frigates, two submarines, 254 warplanes, a large amount of ammunition consumed, and the damage caused to Argentina's national economy, etc., the Argentine lion opened his mouth to demand that Britain pay 1ooo billion pounds, that is, 1.1ooo billion yuan in war reparations。 Of course, this was only a condition put forward by the Argentine, and the British had no choice but to pay back the price. The British also cited their own losses, demanding that Argentina should compensate the British. The reason is that the Falklands War was fought by the Argentines.
But history is always up to the victors, and the Argentines said that this was Argentina's recovery of the territories occupied by the British, and that it was a just war, and added that Britain would return to Argentina all the benefits it had made on the Falklands in the past 23 years. Both sides can be said to be arguing. Because of Britain's tough attitude, Argentina also launched anti-British demonstrations, and some people even clamored to fight Britain and occupy their islands for decades before returning them. &*Fastest update**But the British did lose the war, so the low tone of their speech inevitably decreased a little, no matter how loud the Argentines shouted, the British couldn't help it, the war reparations must be given, and now it's just a matter of how much. On this day, due to the big gap between the two sides, they decided to continue negotiations after 5 days and then broke up!
On September 25, Britain and Argentina held separate negotiations, because the anti-war wave in Britain has exploded, if Britain can not immediately end the humiliating actions in the South Atlantic, then the country is facing the danger of economic collapse, and the government is also facing the danger of stepping down, and finally the British government agreed to pay Argentina war reparations, but the amount is much less than Argentina demanded, and the Argentines also accept it, and finally the two sides bargained, and reached a war reparation agreement. Britain paid Argentina 5oo billion pounds, that is, 52.5 billion yuan in war reparations, and will bear the obligation to rebuild the Falklands, and the war reparations will be paid in 2o years, and will be calculated according to the degree of inflation every year. When Britain finished paying war reparations 2o years later, it subdued the Argentines with a total of 8.5 billion yuan. This is something that the British never expected. But the nightmare of the British did not end.
On September 3o, China and Britain negotiated war reparations, because China had confirmed that the submarines that attacked the Chinese fleet were British, so China had the right to demand war reparations from Britain. Of course, China is not like Argentina, which only thinks about its immediate interests, and China's demands are not so easy to meet. China demanded that Britain hand over the two submarines that attacked the Chinese fleet and the crews on them. In terms of reparations, the price offered by China is not high, and it only asks Britain to pay for the construction of the frigate, which has already compensated more than 1oo officers and men who died on board. But the most terrible thing is that China said that in order to prevent the occurrence of such incidents in the future, it asked Britain to hand over the jurisdiction of Ascension Island to China for 2o years, and then determine the ownership of the island. Because the Chinese have already come up with evidence that the British submarine that attacked the Chinese fleet came from Ascension Island. For China's asking price, the British are absolutely impossible to accept. First of all, the British are asked to hand over two of Britain's most advanced nuclear submarines, both of which are the latest British technology and are all top secrets, and if they are handed over to the Chinese, then the British submarines will be "teased" by the Chinese in the future. Of course, the Americans will not let the British hand over the submarines, because the submarines of the United States and Britain can be said to be in the same vein. And if Britain wants to hand over its own soldiers to other countries to deal with, even if the government agrees, then it is impossible to accept the repercussions among the people, and the soldiers have risked their lives to establish meritorious deeds for the country, and now the government wants to call these heroic soldiers to other countries to deal with them, and no country can do such a thing! In terms of reparations, the British can no longer come up with more money, but China's demand is not excessive, so they reluctantly agreed. In the ownership of Ascension Island, the British want to save face, and if they want them to cede their territory, even if it is better to die. But now Ascension Island can be said to be a piece of chicken ribs, Britain has lost all its overseas territories in the South Atlantic, such a small island is of little value, but the United States strongly asks Britain not to agree to it, because the United States military does not want to see China's sphere of influence expand to the Atlantic. This is how the round of negotiations between the two sides broke down.
On 5 January, China and the UK held another round of negotiations. China is stubbornly biting on the wrong side, and it can be said that it is unforgiving. Moreover, China's three aircraft carrier squadrons have also completed their escort missions in the South Atlantic, and are now heading north, posing as if they are going to the British mainland to show off their military might. In fact, even if the British aircraft carriers were lost, it was impossible for anyone to attack the British mainland at this time, and this behavior of the Chinese fleet was only a threat to the British.
Under domestic pressure, the British government finally secretly told China that it could consider ceding Ascension Island, but asked China to withdraw its requirements for British submarines and submarine officers and men. And the Chinese government, seeing that its goal had been achieved, immediately agreed with the British. In the end, the two sides reached an armistice treaty, in which Britain paid China 200 million yuan in war reparations, and at the same time transferred Ascension Island to China for management, and after 2o years, China and Britain negotiated and decided the ownership of Ascension Island. The treaty was signed in secret, and by the time the Americans knew about it, it was already too late. Britain's practice of signing a treaty behind the Americans' back is also a helpless way, because if the Americans know, then Britain and China negotiations will definitely not go smoothly, and Britain has already begun to work hard to fight for a new general election, if the Chinese fleet is allowed to go around the British Isles, then no one can guarantee that the current British government will not fall immediately, and the British government in the lower realm will definitely be Britain to come to power. Of course, the United States cannot say much afterwards, because this is completely a British matter, and only in that angry jump.
On January 1o, the last round of Argentine-American negotiations ended, Argentina did not demand that the United States pay war reparations because of the face of the United States and the strong power of the United States in South America, and the United States also agreed to pay the construction cost of an Argentine Navy submarine sunk by an American escort ship, and the pension of 100 million US dollars for the officers and men on it.
On January 11, Argentina, China, Britain and the United States jointly signed a ceasefire agreement on the Second Falklands War. The Second Falklands War officially ended.
The Second Falklands War was completely different from the outcome of the war 23 years ago, and made the world realize that the world is now a world in which China and the United States are competing for hegemony, and with the support of the energy bloc, China still occupies a little advantage, and Great Russia can only play a supporting role in the fierce competition between China and the United States due to economic reasons and new Europe for political reasons. From then on, China's position in the world was officially established, because with China's support, Argentina, which was weak, defeated the powerful Britain.
The biggest beneficiary of the war was Argentina, which not only completed the unification of the country, but also injected a lot of vitality into Argentina's economic development with the huge war reparations it received from Britain. The Argentine army has also gained valuable experience from this war, has established itself as the number one military power in South America, and has acquired more advanced technology in the future cooperation with China. Since then, Argentina has become China's most important ally, and has always been China's most loyal supporter, Argentina has also attracted a large number of Chinese investment, Chinese tourists, immigrants, these Chinese to Argentina, no Sino-Arab friendship, has made outstanding contributions to the Argentine exhibition, due to the close relationship between China and Argentina, there has been a large influx of Chinese immigrants, Chinese has almost become the second language of Argentina.
The score of the energy group is not less than that of Argentina, first, the energy group obtained a military base in the Atlantic, opening up a base for the energy group's power to extend to the Atlantic, and Argentina opened all its military bases to the energy group in order to thank the energy group for its selfless help, and welcomed the energy group army to help South America's ** independent activities, and through the military base in Argentina, the energy group later played a huge role in South America, so that the United States was busy rectifying its own backyard. The coup d'état in Peru a year later, the subsequent movement in Chile to free itself from American control, the movement to reclaim the canals in Panama, and finally the formation of the South American Free Alliance, led by Brazil and Argentina, were all inseparable from the support of the energy group and the efforts of the energy group's special forces. Of course, that's all for later. The most important thing is that the energy group took advantage of this war to transfer a large amount of idle funds from the group into South America to help Argentina and other countries develop their economies, and in this way, they controlled a large number of important strategic resources in South America, laying a good foundation for another war that will shock the world in the future. Since then, the international status of the energy group has been on a par with the Skull and Bones in the Americas, and the United States has always made trouble around the energy group in the past, but now the energy group has burned the flames of war to the backyard of the United States, and the United States cannot even protect its own backyard, so what can it do to convince others of it?
Of course, China has also achieved its own interests, but it is not as huge as the energy group.
Of course, in this war, Britain's position can be said to have plummeted, and the British navy, which is known as the third most powerful navy in the world, cannot even solve the problem of a small Argentina, and it has also ended up with a total annihilation, and it is almost impossible for the British to restore their naval strength in a short period of time, and as a result, Britain's international status has fallen to the level of a second-rate or even third-rate country. In the United Nations, which exists in name only, many countries have demanded that Britain be abolished from the permanent membership of the United Nations, if it were not for the fact that Britain still has powerful nuclear weapons, it would have been kicked out of the permanent membership of the United Nations long ago. Of course, none of this is important, the main thing is that the decline of Britain has dealt the hardest blow to the group of countries that the United States has created.
Although it seems that the losses of the United States are not severe, but the United States has been hit the hardest, as mentioned earlier, the United States has almost lost its ability to control South America and lost its own backyard, and the fall of Britain has caused the strength of the North American Free Trade Association (NAFTA) for the United States to decline sharply. The twilight of the United States has come!
On January 12, the Energy Group fleet left the waters of the Malvinas Islands and began to head out to South Africa, making a friendly visit to South Africa, then along the west coast of Africa, directly to Norway in Northern Europe, then south through the Strait of Gibraltar, the Dardanelles, into the Black Sea, and finally out of the Suez Canal, into the Gulf, then out of the Arabian Sea along the east coast of Africa, and finally around the island of Madagascar, across the Indian Ocean, to Malaysia, and finally back to the Sri Lankan naval base. And along the way to visit some countries, it took two months to return to the home port, the energy group fleet of this big "cruise" can be said to be the aftermath of the war, a show of force, people everywhere after seeing the energy group navy so strong feel that the world has changed, a group is so powerful.
The earth, which had been calm for more than 2 months, was once again awakened by the flames of war. On this day, Japan's secret fleet attacked the Huan Air Base on the Chinese island of Ryukyu. The Second Pacific War broke out.
At that time, the Chinese fleet stationed in the naval base on Ryukyu Island had a formation of two aircraft carriers, and there were more than 2oo fighters stationed at the air base on the island. The Japanese attack began at 6 a.m., just after the sun was rising. Just like 74 years ago, this sneak attack by the Japanese can be said to be very shrewd in terms of tactics, and it is also very successful, three waves of fighters have the opportunity to destroy the entire naval base, and the two aircraft carriers, 12 destroyers, and 8 frigates moored in it have been completely destroyed, and only four nuclear submarines have been carried out in time to escape the Japanese sneak attack. But the Japanese made the same mistake 74 years ago, always thinking that the tactical function made up for the lack of strategy, although in the early stage of the war, Japan achieved a series of victories, but when Japan's war strings were tightened, it was also the easiest to break, so Japan's final defeat was decided in the early stage of the war, not to mention that 8o years ago, the Japanese used so much more advanced equipment than China, and in terms of national strength more than China more than several times, did not defeat China, and now China can be said to be in the sky, even if Japan can win in the early stage, when China comes back to breath, then Japan's end will come。
The most puzzling thing after the war is why the Chinese let the Japanese succeed under the current reconnaissance technology, and from the number of casualties announced by China, it can be seen that the loss of naval personnel is not at all proportional to the loss of ships, and the loss of so many ships and the casualties of personnel are not thousands, if these ships are full, there will definitely be more than such casualties. Moreover, China's satellite reconnaissance system can be said to be on a par with the United States, but it failed to meet the build-up of the Japanese fleet and failed to take timely countermeasures. Many people wonder if China specifically let the Japanese provoke this war to achieve its own goals. Of course, there is another theory, that is, Li Cong wants to provoke a war and teach the Japanese a lesson, so he relies on his more powerful jamming network to let China's satellites go out of control.
Of course, we must also introduce Japan today. Since Japan's defeats in Korea and Taiwan, the militaristic atmosphere and the idea of revenge have become deeply ingrained in the country. The military government ruled Japan. Because the United States needs Japan to contain China in the western Pacific, the United States has adopted a new policy of indulgence towards Japan, and like the policy of Britain and France toward fascist Germany in the 30s of the 20th century, the United States has suffered a great loss in the end because of its own wrong methods, because when the Japanese are full of ambition, then no one can stop it. After more than 6 years of military control, Japan's economy has improved, and with its world's second-largest shipbuilding capacity, it has built a fleet of Asia's second-large, including four large aircraft carriers, more than 2O destroyers, more than 3O frigates, and 18 AIP submarines. The construction of the navy reached its peak after World War II, and of course, this fascist rule in Japan did have a noticeable effect on the development of the country at the beginning, but when the country embarked on external expansion, then the failure was already doomed. And China seems to be deliberately allowing the Japanese to exhibit, perhaps this is a way for the Chinese to find a solution to the Japanese problem once and for all!
December 18, 2o22, the day after a Japanese sneak attack on a Chinese naval base. China's state president made a televised speech to the whole country, and 1.5 billion people in China sat in front of the television. The speech of the President of the People's Republic of China, General Secretary of the People's Republic of China Su Mingyang (Wang Lieying's term expired in 2o13, Su Mingyang, the former mayor of Dalian, the mayor of Shenyang, the governor of Liaoning, the Minister of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation of the State Council, and the vice premier of the State Council was elected as China's supreme leader) The speech of the President of the People's Republic of China and the General Secretary of the People's Republic of China (Wang Lieying's term of office expired in 2o13, Su Mingyang, the former mayor of Dalian, the mayor of Shenyang, the governor of Liaoning, the Minister of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation of the State Council, and the vice premier of the State Council were elected as the supreme leader of China) The speech of the President of the People's Republic of China and the General Secretary of the People's Republic of China (Wang Lieying) was elected as the supreme leader of the People's Republic of China. The second sentence is that it is time for us to settle all historical accounts with Japan. Subsequently, the chairman of the Military Commission, Wang Lieying (who had retreated to the second line, but was still the number one person in the Chinese ruling class), called on the whole people to unite to resist Japan's aggression. China's most powerful warplane, began to operate in full force to solve the Japanese problem once and for all.
Now it is necessary to introduce China's national conditions. According to statistics at the beginning of 2o22, China is already the world's first in the production of strategic raw materials such as steel, grain, aluminum ingots, coal, and cement, and the gap with the second is at least 2o%. Among them, the self-sufficiency of raw materials such as iron ore, grain, and aluminum ore has reached more than 8o%. In terms of manufacturing, China was already the world's largest shipbuilding country in 2o1O, and its output was 3o% higher than that of Japan, the second largest, and the output of televisions, mobile phones, automobiles, etc. has reached the world's first. It is inseparable from China's huge market, and it also has a lot to do with China's manufacturing exhibition. In the manufacture of large passenger aircraft, the cooperation with Dassault Group has allowed them to fully master a lot of technology, in fact, Li Cong deliberately made them stronger, if China wants, it can use the production line of these passenger aircraft to produce bombers at any time.
In terms of industrial production, because China has the advantage of low labor, no country in the world has no way to compete with China. Therefore, China's war potential is already recognized as the world's first, and even the United States admits to itself that if it engages in an all-out war with China, it has no certainty of victory. In terms of military strength, the focus of China's construction has fallen on the air force and navy, and with the support of the energy group, new fighters are constantly coming down the production line, of course, part of it is supplied to friendly countries, because China's weapons have withstood the test of many wars, although its performance is still far behind the United States in some aspects, but in terms of comprehensive combat capability, the price is already the United States' high-tech products can not compete, so those poor countries, in order to obtain high-tech weapons, have set their sights on China, and China does not require cash to pay, can be exchanged for various resourcesThis makes these countries like they have found a treasure, and they have taken out the only resources in their countries in exchange for China's cooperation, and China has also used this way to control the strategic resources of many countries, because China has obtained resources but is not able to exploit them, so it is like a second-hand dealer to cooperate with energy groups in exchange for a large number of advanced to develop the economy, which provides an indispensable impetus for China to carry out war.
And in the Navy, new ships are launched into service every month. After the construction of 6 military god class aircraft carriers, some of the problems must be solved, so on the basis of the development of the emperor class aircraft carrier, the latest two have been launched in early 2o22, with the outbreak of the war, the construction degree of these ships will be mentioned to the highest, and for China's strong shipbuilding capacity, there is no big difficulty in building new ships. The energy group is no longer ready to drive any aircraft carriers, so it wants its allies to build more of these things, and aircraft carriers have proven to be very useful.
And the most important thing is that it is Japan that has taken the initiative to go to war with China, and if it were the United States, perhaps the people would not be so sad and angry. Because Japan and China have had too many grievances in history, as long as it is mentioned to deal with the Japanese, the people of the whole country have taken the initiative to tighten their belts, even if they do not eat or drink, they will win against the Japanese. Of course, China does not need to do this now, after the national mobilization, 1.5 billion people under one baton, advancing towards the same goal, if this kind of power can be seen by those short-sighted leaders in Japan, then even if they are bold, they will never dare to come to China at this time.
December 2o, Medium** The team took the initiative to take the defensive, because of the existing 8 aircraft carriers, two were destroyed by Japan, and the other two latest emperor-class Yingzheng and Liu Che are still in outfitting and training, and cannot be put into battle in the short term, and the three Yue Fei, Han Signal, and Yuan Chonghuan who came back from the South Atlantic are still resting and overhauling, and the crew is very tired, so in three months do not want to go into battle, and the last Zhuge Liang does not have the strength to fight against Japan's four aircraft carriers, and it is completely necessary and correct for China to take a defensive position at this time, because China's strategic depth is incomparable with Japan, and the Chinese can fight a protracted war, and if the Japanese want to win, they will have to fight a decisive battle with China, but this is not something they can do if they want to.
Countries around the world have also accused Japan of aggression and expressed support for China's war against aggression and controversy. Argentina, Tanzania, North Korea, Pakistan, Israel, Laos, Myanmar, Cambodia and other countries that have close relations with the energy bloc have all expressed their resolute support for China's anti-aggression war and have provided China with the greatest preferential treatment in terms of materials. Subsequently, those countries in Southeast Asia that had been invaded by Japan in the past also expressed severe criticism of Japan's aggression, but because the United States did not express its position, it has already disputed with China on some regional issues and did not support China much. The new European Union and Great Russia have expressed only limited support for China because they are worried that China's expansion of power will affect their interests in the world, but they have always expressed concern that Japan's expansion will pose a threat to world peace. In the end, the United States slowly expressed its attitude, saying only that it did not support Japan's aggressive behavior and was worried about the military balance in the western Pacific. However, everyone knows that the United States hopes that Japan and China will lose both sides and create conditions for the return of American forces to the western Pacific.
On December 31, 2o22, since China did not want to engage in a decisive battle with the Japanese Navy at this time, the Japanese Navy had not encountered an opponent in the western Pacific, and China's voluntary concession did not mean that China was unable to resist the Japanese attack. Although the Chinese Navy has been closed, allowing the Japanese Navy to steal the limelight, the Japanese are not having a good time. The Chinese Air Force has maintained support for the Ryukyu Islands and has caused chaos in Japan by carrying out limited bombing of the Busan base provided by Korea to China. Moreover, Japan's original plan to occupy the Ryukyus in 1o days was also bankrupt because of the heroic resistance of the squadron, and now the Japanese army is still searching for Chinese special forces in the dense forests of the Ryukyu Islands. But this operation proved to be quite difficult more than 7o years ago, when the Americans invested a lot of manpower and material resources to clear the remnants of Japanese forces on the Pacific islands, but the results were not ideal, and the United States would have paid a greater price if it had not been for Japan's surrender. Although science and technology have changed with each passing day, there are more benefits to special warfare, Chinese special forces can get supplies from Chinese submarines, and the advantage of directly using the enemy's resources in the past has not been lost, so the Japanese have not been able to eliminate the Chinese special forces who are still active on these islands. On the contrary, a large number of troops are pinned down here. Every day, Japan's already scarce war resources are being consumed.
On January 1, 2o23, the Japanese finally couldn't sit still, and if Japan could not obtain war resources, even if China did not send troops to attack Japan, then Japan would lose the war due to the depletion of resources. This is Japan's fatal point, China can rely on its own ability to carry out a long war of attrition, and the Japanese can not afford to consume, Japan and Japan can only attack and attack again, if the Japanese stop attacking, then the day of his defeat will not be far away, but now there are not many places in the Pacific Ocean where the Japanese can gallop, the east is the sphere of influence of the Americans, if at this time, Japan and the United States are at war again, then Japan is undoubtedly adding to its own defeat. To the west is China itself, and Japan does not have the confidence to make a decision with the Chinese Navy within the scope of the Chinese Air Force, because the Americans, who are much stronger than Japan, have already proved this conclusion that China is invincible in its own periphery in the war more than seven years ago. So Japan's eyes can only turn to the south. The Philippines is the brunt. Japan can obtain rubber and other strategic resources from the Philippines, of course, the most important thing is that the energy group has a huge oil depot in the Philippines, with more than 80 million tons of environmentally friendly oil. However, the Philippines is now the only ally of the United States in Southeast Asia, and if the United States is directly involved in the war because of the Philippine problem, then Japan will not lose money, but Japan must gamble this time in the face of the danger of losing the war. Besides, General Mellon also has his own killer weapon -- artificial man, and Japan may not be able to succeed.
At 2 a.m. that day, a Japanese Navy 6 Sentai landed 6 north of Luzon Island in the Philippines. Japan's operation to expand the war began.
