    Submarine attack convoy Because Japan seldom equips convoys with frigates, the navy attacks from south to north with Australia as the main base, first attacking islands that are easy to attack, then cutting off supply lines, and then attacking difficult ones.

    Here's what I thought:

    1 The economic blockade, Japan's military industry mainly relies on foreign resources, and the United States accounts for 50 of them, so the United States no longer provides resources to Japan, which means that Japan's military industry cannot operate quickly, and it has a great impact on their materials in the war.

    The main thing was to annihilate the sea and air power of the Japanese army, and after controlling air and sea supremacy, and then gradually conquer its territory.

    You just ask about the attack of the American army.

    At the end of April 1942, a series of Japanese campaigns in the Pacific and Southeast Asia came to an end. As a result, Japan invaded large territories of other countries and occupied advantageous positions from India to the Kuril Islands. However, the Japanese high command's attempt to destroy the will of the allies to resist was unsuccessful.

    Japan was in a position where it had to wage a protracted war with its allies, which outnumbered it in terms of economic and military potential.

    On May 7 and 8, a fierce battle broke out between Japan and the U.S. Navy in the Coral Sea south of New Guinea and ended in a draw.

    The main thing is to implement strangulation tactics.

    1. In the early days, the U.S. military occupied the Japanese islands in the western Pacific from the south. Thus cutting off the Japanese army's strategic resources such as oil and rubber.

    This led to the ensuing battle, and the fuel and weight of the Japanese army (planes and **, etc.) were unsustainable.

    2. In the middle and late stages, after the fierce battle with the Japanese troops stationed on the island, the US military was very large (much larger than what was announced, because many people were counted in the missing and accidents, and the Americans also had a good face).

    Especially after the battle in the Ryukyu Islands (Okinawa), the huge ** made the Yankees unable to withstand it.

    In order to avoid a direct attack on the Japanese mainland is encountered a great **. After the American troops seized the appropriate islands, they began.

    Massive bombing of the Japanese mainland (see Hayao Miyazaki's film "Goodbye Fireflies").

    Until the Japanese devils surrendered.

    The most important tactic is the leapfrog tactic, that is, bypassing the Japanese islands with strong defenses, attacking the weakly defended islands, forcing the Japanese reinforcements, and then striking at the reinforcements, cutting off the material supply of those fortresses, thus reducing **, (it is entirely the Chinese art of war to encircle Wei to save Zhao.)

    The series "War in the Pacific" is just a tip of the war seen from the perspective of a few Marines. What really decided the outcome of the Pacific War was the duel between the fleets of the two sides on the ocean. Take a look at the book.

    1. In order to ensure the safety of Japan's maritime lines.

    2. At that time, many outstanding politicians and military strategists in Japan had realized that the spiritual civilization of the East and the material civilization of the West would inevitably have a battle that would determine the world civilization, and the two sides involved in the war were Japan, the representative of the spiritual civilization of the East, and the United States and Britain, the representatives of the spiritual civilization of the West.

    3. At that time, the United States controlled the Philippines and other regions, restricting Japan's maritime line.

    4. Due to the lack of resources in Japan's homeland and the fact that China's actions were not carried out according to the previous plan, resources restricted Japan's military operations, and the domestic rubber import source was the South Asian region controlled by the United States.

    5. Yamamoto knew the strength of the United States, so he opposed a war against the United States, but the Japanese military insisted on carrying it out, and finally Yamamoto came up with a plan to attack Pearl Harbor. But Yamamoto himself knew that he could only buy Japan 6 months, and everything afterwards proved that Yamamoto's prediction was correct.

    The purpose of the attack on Pearl Harbor was:

    62616964757a686964616fe4b893e5b19e31333431353263 to (at least temporarily) eliminate the main force of the US Navy in the Pacific. Isoroku Yamamoto, the mastermind of the attack on Pearl Harbor, himself believed that a successful attack would bring a strategic advantage for only about a year.

    Japan was at war with China from 1931, after the Japanese occupied Manchuria. From January 1941, when Japan began planning an attack on Pearl Harbor to gain a strategic advantage, and after some discussion and controversy within the Navy, the Japanese Navy began to conduct rigorous training for this operation from mid-year.

    Japan's wars in China and Southeast Asia were met with oil embargoes and economic sanctions imposed on Japan by the United States, Britain, China and the Netherlands. Japan could not eliminate and occupy the United States, and he needed to make concessions from the United States through victory in local wars.

    Because copying the United States hindered Japan's expansion. Raid.

    In recent history, Japan has two main characteristics:

    First, Japan is a capitalist country, and it is a latecomer. In order for the capitalist countries of this period to develop, they must need colonies, and the colonies are a community of "resource producing areas" and "dumping places of goods", so Japan must expand. As a latecomer capitalist country, Japan must face the fact that the world has been basically carved up by Britain, France, and other early-rise capitalist countries, and if Japan wants to develop, it must compete with these old capitalist countries.

    Second, Japan is a resource-poor country. Although the United States is also a rising country, it has abundant domestic resources and a broad market, and can accumulate strong national strength at the domestic development stage. And Japan lacked resources, so it had to expand abroad when its strength was not strong.

    Therefore, if Japan wants to develop, it must expand externally; And once it expands, it will have to confront an alliance with Western countries led by the United States that have vested interests in Southeast Asia and the Pacific.

    In addition, in order to curb Japan's expansion, the United States took measures to restrict the export of Japan's three major strategic resources, which further forced Japan to launch a war against the United States as soon as possible, seize its sphere of influence in Southeast Asia, and control the resources at its disposal in order to maintain the war.

    In World War II, Japan's strength can be said to be able to beat all Asian countries, but the United States is not easy to provoke, so some people will wonder why the Japanese army did not attack the Soviet Union, but instead attacked the United States at the expense of the near and far.

    Japan has not invaded the United States at all, and Japan's sneak attack on Pearl Harbor can only show that it was a sneak attack on a military base, and it has not invaded US territory, at most it can only be said that it has seized the US sphere of influence and threatened the vital interests of the United States, which also led to the United States officially declaring war on the Japanese fascists, laying the groundwork for the demise of the Japanese fascists!

    Japan did not go to war on the American mainland in World War II, and the United States declared war on Japan only after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor.

First of all, military rations are not meant to keep you full, and you have to distinguish them from three meals in the ordinary sense. Military rations are only to ensure that a soldier must have nutrition every day, sometimes even the lower limit of nutrition, and easy to absorb, easy to store, easy to eat, etc., in this principle, to control the volume and weight of its rations to the greatest extent, those perishable foods are very few, which is why fresh vegetables are popular with the troops. Secondly, even if the army is marching and fighting, not every soldier can only eat rations every day, the army is stationed for training, and there are cooking units during the march, and the normal supply of three meals is guaranteed as much as possible according to the conditions. >>>More

Germany didn't know that at that time. Japan had already planned to attack the United States, and Germany knew about it, but all along, Germany had been vigorously opposed to Japan's attack on the United States, because the United States' participation in the war at that time was likely to directly reverse the situation of the war that was originally biased in their favor, and moreover, Japan at that time did not conquer China within a month as it had planned, and the war situation in East Asia was still unclear, and if the United States got involved, it would inevitably suffer from the enemy, so Germany has always opposed Japan's sneak attack on the United States in this regard. However, the Japanese emperor at that time seemed to have seen the defeat of the war and lost confidence in the war, so with their national character, they had to fight to the death. >>>More
