My Third Empire

Biquge www.readwn.com, update my latest chapter of the third empire as soon as possible!

My head:

It has been many years since I came to Japan. As an attaché of the German Embassy in Japan and as an observer of military strength against Japan, this is the tenth time I have submitted my observation report to the country. Just a few days ago, the Japanese army deliberately invited me to visit their battle in the Nomenkan area, but the outcome of this battle ended in Japan ’s defeat.

It has to be said that as far as my observations are concerned, Japan lacks preparations for fighting heavy Soviet weapons. Like France, they use various small-caliber weapons to deal with Soviet tanks and armored vehicles of more than 20 tons. Heavy price.

I saw with my own eyes that the Japanese army was forced to organize the soldiers to charge with explosives, trying to die with the Soviet army's tanks or armored vehicles. The effectiveness of this tactic is very doubtful, because after losing about 300 people, the Japanese army barely prevented the Soviet tanks from attacking, and I even felt that the Soviets were exhausted before stopping.

The artillery carried by the Japanese army is not as good as the Soviet artillery deployed in the Far East in terms of caliber and power. The gap between the two sides is very large. I once saw the Soviet artillery counterattack in the headquarters. It is very incredible that the Soviet Union can still remain so terrible after the cleaning Fighting power.

The shells fell like raindrops on the Japanese army ’s positions, covering the main Japanese military station and causing hundreds of casualties to the Japanese army. The Japanese commander next to me even begged his artillery not to fire back and avoid retaliating with more artillery fire.

On the other hand, the Japanese Type 89 medium tank is actually slightly lower than the overall level of the French b1 tank, and even lags behind the b1 tank in the main performance by one generation. The armor of this tank is not as good as half of the b1 tank, and the main function of the 57mm caliber tank gun is to support infantry, not to attack the opposing tank.

In general, this Japanese tank is closer to China's assault guns than real tanks. The combat content is to support infantry operations, but it is more expensive than the No. 3 assault gun, and its anti-tank capabilities and artillery support capabilities are also weaker. I really do n’t know why this tank is still in production. Perhaps it is one of the reasons why it can really be competent for its combat missions on the Chinese battlefield.

However, I learned that the Japanese Navy is competing with the Japanese Army for the use of steel. As an island country, Japan attaches more importance to the development of the navy direction as the United Kingdom. Therefore, in this internal battle for the right to use steel production, the Japanese Navy In the end, the victory was won, so the development of the army's weapons and equipment was curbed.

Submachine guns are rarely equipped in the Japanese army, and there are many restrictions on the use of machine guns. Japanese infantry training is more interested in precise shooting, which is mainly because the Army ’s emphasis on saving ammunition is doing strange things. Therefore, the armor of the Japanese Army ’s tanks is generally thin, and the weight is also pitiful. This is because the development of the Army has always lacked steel.

The defeat of the Japanese troops at Nomenkan is regrettable, but they do have their merits. Japanese soldiers who have undergone brainwashing with the unique Bushido spirit in Japan are not afraid of death. They are more willing to believe that their death can bring victory to their emperor. Of course, it turns out that their death did not have any unique magic, and Japan did not win in the Nomenkan area.

However, the Japanese army's intrepid and fearless combat style is very shocking. It is difficult to imagine how arduous tasks this army can perform after learning advanced tactics. They generally carried out very precise shooting training, paying attention to bayonet fighting and charging tactics. To be honest, according to the standards in the early days of World War I, this unit is very combative.

Of course, in the face of an offensive or defensive system composed of tanks, artillery, and machine guns, the Japanese army's combat methods are obviously outdated. Their repeated heroic warfare with rigid and backward tactics is that apart from the high casualty figures, there is nothing to be proud of.

The performance of the Japanese Air Force was also very disappointing. They competed with the Soviet fighter forces for air supremacy, and at the beginning of the war, they heard valuable suggestions from our German Air Force observers and carried out surprise attacks on the Soviet front-line airport. The performance of can be described as stupid.

They did not take advantage of their own air dominance, did not take off a large number of aircraft to support combat on the ground, and the air attack was only limited to the sloppy bombing of a certain area by the takeoff bomber. It is not like our German Air Force. Repeated takeoffs of a small number of aircraft continue to provide frontline troops. Suppress firepower on the ground.

The direct consequence of this is that in addition to the loss of a part of the artillery of the Soviet army in several bombings, the Soviet artillery, which has lost air control, can in most cases fight without pressure, which directly leads to the consequences of the failure of the Japanese artillery.

It is worth mentioning that Japan has achieved a series of victories in mainland China. The squadron seems to be retreating in an organized manner on the frontal battlefield, giving up some underdeveloped but huge areas. This also worsened the situation in the Far East, and more people in Japan turned to support continued expansion-originally because of the setback in China's attack, some people in Japan have begun to think that they should stop the attack and seek peace with China, but now it seems This voice is already very weak, and the possibility of Japan continuing to expand the war is very high.

Now we all know that it seems impossible for Japan to go north, so the Japanese navy's approach to the south should be worthy of our attention. This combat plan includes the entire Southeast Asia region, and it will obviously conflict with the interests of the United States, Britain, and even our Germany. Please, the head of state, you will prepare early in faraway Berlin.

In the far east, I miss my great motherland all the time. I hope God bless you, my head of state, and bless you for your health, and also wish you all the best, and the Empire ’s battle against Britain will win as soon as possible.

——First Class Military Officer of the Consulate of the Holy Third Germany in Japan, Hadlet von Bollet

After reading the telegram, Akado put the document on the desk and looked at both Brahich and Augustus.

"The Japanese really used a bayonet to chop up Soviet tanks at Nomenkan?" Brauchic obviously didn't quite believe the final result of this battle: "Japan's combat power during the Russo-Japanese War cannot be underestimated ... how can it be so unbearable now?"

"If you know that Japan is building the fifth aircraft carrier, you know that they are not as weak as expected." Akado looked at the stack of analysis of the Japanese navy's combat capability in the upper right corner of the table and rubbed his nose. "Fighting inland is not Japan's strength."

"Will Japan go south next?" Augustus asked with a frown.

"It has already begun to go south." Akado smiled bitterly and pointed to the information on the table. "The two Japanese troops have entered Myanmar and fought with the British forces under General Mountbatten. The accuracy just obtained this morning According to news, the Hong Kong British team was forced to surrender. "

"Say that?" August raised his eyebrows.

"Yes. It is only a matter of time before Japan and the United States go to war. Although the two countries are still shouting about peace between the United States and Japan, as long as they are not idiots, the war will explode in a year." Akado ordered Nodded and said: "Our honeymoon period with Japan is over. After the battle of Nomenkan, Japan will not have any impact on our next strategy. In the future, any requests for Japan will be taken as the core. Response measures. "

"My head of state, can I take the liberty to ask?" Brauchich said after thinking for a while: "In the choice of your allies, you seem to have no preference for Japan. You know, Japan's current steel production is Chinese 100 times, if we choose a stronger ally, we should stand with Japan. "

Akado was stunned, and then he laughed: "China alone against Japan, it can be said that there is really no chance of winning, after all, China's current industrial base is too backward. But if you add an American?"

Augustus also stood up and patted the shoulder of Brahich who didn't know how to answer there: "This is why you are just a marshal, and the head of state is always the head of state ... Japan is in the eyes of the head of state It has always been a bargaining chip with the United States, not an ally. As for China ... that is the fatal blow to the United States in secret. "

"Then the telegram ... how to reply?" Brahich knew that he couldn't see through the twists and turns of these politicians.

"This lieutenant colonel has done a good job and has a chance to be promoted." Akado glanced at the telegram again and said with a smile: "Now the situation in the Far East has attracted the attention of the Soviets, at least it can drag the war on Months. With these months, we can wait patiently for the outcome of the British War. "

Winston Churchill, this familiar name. Akado looked at the name written in cursive on the paper, and felt some emotions in his heart: Goebbels, Goring, Hitler, it is estimated that this Churchill will be added now-another familiar person will Leaving the stage of history, who will come next?

Think of the place where gunfire is heard in London in the distance, the prime minister's office deep underground, and think of Churchill sitting in a dark corner. Akado raised his mouth and smiled. The scene he imagined in his mind was really familiar: in another time and space, the last moment of Hitler is like this? It is also a dim basement, poison and pistol, and also waiting for its final ending in despair.

It's really miserable.
