Chapter 924: Attack on Sakhalin

"We can't just let those Japanese dwarfs go so easily. At least we're going to kick their ass first, and then we're going to talk about peace talks! MacArthur snorted coldly as he snorted coldly.

When the U.S. military began to attack the Caroline Islands, the voices of the Japanese calling for peace talks with the Americans became louder.

The fact that the Marshall and Gilbert Islands were broken through by the US military so quickly still surprised the Japanese.

If this continues, I am afraid that the Japanese will fail to intercept the island chain. The domestic situation in the United States also allowed the Japanese to see clearly the determination of the Americans to resist. A single presidential election can make any high-level American leader not talk about peace talks lightly.

If there was no rise of China, the Japanese would continue to gamble until the Americans could no longer bear the huge casualties, but a China around them that might swallow Japan whole with a belt and bones made the Japanese jealous.

On the one hand, there are innumerable interests, and on the other hand, in the face of the danger of annihilation under the attack of the United States and China, Japan is also hesitant in Japan, and various forces hold their own opinions, and it is difficult to reach a unified opinion.

"Unless the United States and China go to war, even if we hold peace talks, it will be difficult for us to get a chance to turn around." Ishihara pointed out sharply.

Japan has surrendered now, although it is also possible that it will be used by the Americans to deal with China, but it is also very likely that it will be split up by the United States and China, at least until the naval threat or even Japan's huge army is eliminated, the Americans will not allow Japan to counterattack again.

Americans need dogs, not wolves.

The current Japan is not the Japan of later generations, and it is full of thoughts of being on an equal footing with the United States, so how can it be so obedient and used as a knife by the Americans? If the Japanese wolf is not trained to eat, how can the Americans use it with confidence?

"Hit!" Washington's attitude was decisive.

Although the Americans lost a lot in the Marshall Islands, they were completely within the range of psychological tolerance. Compared to the cruelty of the European war. The battle for the island is still pediatric.

One winter, the Americans lost another 100,000 casualties in Great Britain, Italy, and North Africa, and they didn't move an inch. Relatively speaking. The records of these siege cities in Asia are not bad.

Roosevelt also meant to open up a bigger situation in Asia and inspire the people. And the gang of his factions were all hawkish characters, not to mention that people such as MacArthur and Nimitz suffered a lot at the hands of the Japanese.

According to the psychology of the Americans. If you want to repay it, you have to fight back first, this is the momentum of the people of a big country.

If it weren't for the existence of the threat of China, the tide of peace talks in the United States would probably not even be able to turn over.

At this time, Huaxia had other actions, and did not continue to attack the Philippines, but directly attacked the north.

On 1 April, while the attention of both the Japanese and the Americans was focused on the Chinese fleet and the Japanese warships wrestling near the Philippines in the South China Sea, the Chinese army landed on Sakhalin.

Last year, Huaxia sent troops to the north and prepared to seize Sakhalin Island.

Although many people think that the weather and environment at that time. It is not suitable for landing on the island to fight at all, but no one dares to say that the Chinese people will not be able to do it.

After all, in this world. Now the most skilled in playing airborne is the Chinese army.

The Japanese, who have suffered repeated losses, do not dare to take it lightly. During the long eight-month freeze period on Sakhalin, there was a lack of timely support from Japanese warships. It is really possible to be occupied by the Chinese airborne.

In order to keep the oil and many resources on Sakhalin Island, the Japanese worked hard to send elites to defend, and even colluded with the Russians to bring in some volunteers with an internationalist spirit.

But he was still tricked by the Huaxia people.

Huaxia launched a large army, but it was in the south, completely driving the Japanese out of Indochina.

After that, the Japanese also successively dispatched the elites stationed on Sakhalin Island to deal with the war situation in the south, and even sent them to the Marshall and other islands as farthest.

Otherwise, how could it be so difficult for the US military to gnaw?

After so many years of fierce battles, the elite troops of the Japanese army have been weakened by China, and there are not many elite troops. Those recruits don't get together at all, even those fanatical brainless elementary school students, they just have passion, no combat experience, and only more cannon fodder.

In order to give the Americans a taste, the Japanese put a lot of elites on the island chain.

But there are only so many elite troops of the Japanese, and the local protection needs to be left a little to prevent the Chinese from really coming to the airborne homeland.

The Indo-Burmese border also needs to leave some to prevent the Chinese army from breaking down the defense line of the Asan. Those Ah San are really unreliable, if there is no Japanese elite to play a backbone supporting role, I am afraid that those defense lines will really collapse.

Even if China has no intention of attacking India now, and is only busy cleaning up and rectifying in the South Seas and establishing a new order, how dare the Japanese take it lightly?

India's richness is not boastful, and even if the Japanese only occupy half of it, it will be enough to keep Japan's economy worse and worse.

With such a distribution, Japan's elite troops were no longer enough. With the focus of China's strategy in the south, Sakhalin's defenses were naturally relaxed.

"The entire island needs to be completely established, and it requires a lot of manpower and material resources. And Hua Tai Island is so close to the mainland, maybe the people of China will cross the sea, right? Even with the experience of China's long-distance airborne landing in Australia and the Urals, some people in Japan are still lucky, "Then the Chinese people must at least wait until the weather is warm before they can land on the island!" ”

They also knew that the Chinese would never let go of Sakhalin, but their strength was not good, and when they observed that the Chinese troops on the other side of Sakhalin had been reduced one after another, the Japanese could only comfort themselves in this way.

Moreover, while the Japanese were recruiting elites, they were filled with a large number of recruits, and even in order to strengthen the defense force on Sakhalin Island, the Japanese successively transported more than 100,000 young and strong expatriates. Together with the original 300,000, they can be used as laborers and eyes and ears in normal times, and they can also be organized as cannon fodder when appropriate.

But just when the Japanese estimated that it would be impossible for Huaxia to make any action on Sakhalin in a short period of time, Huaxia once again struck with lightning.

Without the eyes and ears of the former traitors, the Japanese did not know the reality of the army on the other side at all. In the past two years, with the help of sub-bases, a number of airfields have been secretly built. There is no need to move the Huaxia army stationed at the forefront at all, just relying on the overwhelming transport planes in the rear, Huaxia is enough to stage a blitzkrieg again.

The narrowest part of the Tatar Strait is only 7.3 kilometers, and the widest part is only more than 300 kilometers, even C-47 and Juncker can easily cross it.

The Chinese army once again dispatched more than 800 transport planes, and under the advance clearance of more than 300 bombers and 12 airships, and under the escort of more than 500 fighters, they parachuted in a circle from south to north.

Meng Xiang had already arranged in the tank factories and barracks all over Sakhalin, and Grizzly Bear and Rhino tanks also poured out.

Under the control of Meng Xiang's game, he directly opened up a safe passage for the umbrella flowers.

The camouflage was also removed from the three airfields on Sakhalin and the transport planes were directly guided.

From Okha to Korkhakov, gunfire rang out everywhere on Sakhalin Island from the early hours of April 1.

Even though the number of Japanese garrisons remained at about 150,000, and even though there were still a large number of Japanese expatriate militia to help, the army never only compared strength according to numbers.

On the 1st, more than 20,000 people were airborne in China. But only the 20,000 semi-mechanized armored tanks swept through the invincibility and captured a quarter of Sakhalin's territory.

Even though there were groups of fortresses built by the Russians and the Japanese on Sakhalin, the eggs of the recruits were the eggs of the recruits, and they were caught off guard by the Chinese and were simply unable to organize an effective counterattack.

By the time the Japanese came to their senses, the Chinese army had already set up safe airborne areas in various places, and while building defensive fronts, armed with heavy weapons provided by the bases, they were advancing step by step to expand the occupied areas.

Now the coast of Sakhalin is still in a long period of ice, and it is simply impossible to count on large-scale support from the Japanese fleet.

China developed the North Sea Fleet in Vladivostok, and after cruising the Whale Sea and the Sea of Okhotsk, China's submarines and aircraft carriers were running around, and the Japanese could not guarantee that the slightest reinforcement would arrive safely. Moreover, in the case of more and more armored tanks in China, reinforcements may not be effective.

Moreover, the Chinese airborne directly attacked the vicinity of Korsakov, and on the 1st, it occupied several landing sites that the Japanese could support through the Soya Strait. It was even more desperate to stop the idea of reinforcements from the Japanese.

"Don't spend it with them, get rid of the idea of the little devils as soon as possible, and let them honestly duel with the Americans first!" Fan Chong once proposed to open up this strait, use Sakhalin Island as a grinding plate, and consume the troops of the Japanese mainland little by little, but after thinking about it for a while, Meng Xiang still vetoed it.

China's move to regain Sakhalin Island will certainly provoke the Japanese and Americans, but Meng Xiang, who has lost the golden light of history, is not sure how the Japanese and Americans will react.

He had no choice but to cut through the mess quickly, first gain a firm foothold on Sakhalin, the inherent territory of China, and then consider other things. Sakhalin Island is China's inalienable territory, and a strong attack that brooks no hesitation also shows China's hard-line attitude and posture.

Moreover, the 150,000 Japanese troops and 400,000 Japanese nationals on Sakhalin Island, as well as the 50,000 remnants of Soviet volunteers and more than 100,000 Soviet and Russian expatriates, were enough for the Chinese army to train again and delay time.
