World War II Thailand Situation, World War II Thai Navy

World war ii. Central Thailand is Japan's ** and is an Axis power.

One. Second world war.

September 1, 1939 - September 2, 1945), then Siam.

Thailand) leaned toward Japan, and in 1941 it was occupied by Japan and declared its membership in the Axis powers.

On December 7, 1941, Japan launched the Pacific War.

Japan and Siam signed the Treaty of Offensive and Defensive Alliance between Japan and Thailand.

On January 25, 1942, Thailand declared war on Britain and the United States, and Japan ceded some of its occupation of Burma and the northern Malayan Peninsula to Siam.

Japan surrendered on August 15, 1945.

Siam then declared "Siam's declaration of war on Britain and the United States on January 25, 1942 null and void" the next day, and Siam's declaration of "null and void" was declared by the Allies.

Admit. In 1949, Siam changed its name to Thailand.

Thailand during World War II:

1. During World War II, Thailand was one of the three remaining sovereign countries in Asia, except for China and Japan.

Thailand and Japan signed the Japan-Thailand Friendship Treaty. But Thailand was also wary of Japan, and they issued a mobilization order that if the Japanese army invaded, Thailand would spare no effort to resist.

3. After the outbreak of the Pacific War, Thailand and Japan signed the "Japan-Thailand Alliance Treaty", and then Thailand declared war on Britain and the United States and joined the Axis side.

4. During World War II, Thailand not only opened up military access for the Japanese army, provided landing sites, material logistics and other assistance, but also sent troops to occupy some disputed territories in neighboring countries.

5. Thailand has made preparations for both hands, and has not forgotten to bet in the United States. The Thai ambassador to the United States announced that he would sever relations with Thailand and would not recognize Thailand's alliance with Japan. Thailand has never secretly severed ties with Britain and the United States, and the "Free Thai Movement" has secretly exchanged information with Britain and the United States and secretly organized resistance forces.

6. On the eve of Japan's defeat, Thailand declared that all matters such as the alliance with Japan were null and void, and that it would be cut off from Japan. Due to the existence of the "Free Thai Movement" and the interests of Britain and the United States to stabilize Southeast Asia, Thailand's declaration of "invalidity of the declaration of war" was recognized by the Allies and saved it from becoming a defeated country.

7. After the war, Thailand 2 demanded war reparations from Japan, and took out a large number of accounts to prove that Japan took materials in Thailand, and finally received 15 billion yen in compensation.

Thailand was sandwiched between British India, Burma, and French Indochina, and had territorial disputes with French Indochina (Britain and France forcibly occupied a lot of land in Thailand). Coupled with the Japanese co-optation, they actually sided with Japan in World War II, and fought with Visy France (that is, France after being defeated by Germany), and later Japan launched the Pacific War and occupied French Indochina, which Thailand helped and supported Japan's attacks on British India and Burma. Later, it was discovered that Japan could not win the war, and it hastened to draw a clear line with Japan.

At that time, Thailand wanted to use Japan's power to contain the control of Thailand by Western and other countries, so after seeing Japan gradually become stronger, Thailand chose to rely on Japan at that time. Later, after the attack on Pearl Harbor, when Japan wanted to use Thailand, Thailand was forced by the Japanese threat at that time, so it agreed to the request of the Japanese, and Thailand became a Japanese military base, mainly providing military supplies to Japan.

After the outbreak of World War II, although Japan continued to invade, because Japan itself was an island country and its geographical location was limited, so Japan lacked resources at that time, so at this time, Japan hit Southeast Asia and other countries for oil. Because Southeast Asia and other countries were basically close to the sea, and there were oil resources on the sea, Japan began to invade Southeast Asia and other countries at that time.

When all the countries in Southeast Asia were invaded, only Thailand remained independent and was not disturbed by war, which shows that there is a certain miracle. At that time, Japan was still waving the banner of "liberating the colonies, respecting each other, and becoming independent of each other", which was extremely desirable for the people of Southeast Asia, who had been plagued by war for a long time. At that time, in order to survive, Thailand had no choice but to let Japan borrow from Thailand under the threat of Japan.

It's just that at the end of World War II, Thailand at that time knew that Japan had stumbled in a few days, and the king of Thailand at that time chose to retire, and at the same time, Thailand at that time established a new **, and this new ** also protected the underground party organization at that time, and Thailand at this time had become hostile to Japan. After the end of the war, Thailand even had good relations with many European countries at that time, and also received the understanding of the allies.

Later, after Japan went to court martial, Thailand also sought compensation from Japan as a victim. At that time, Thailand was saved from a war because of its cooperative relationship with Japan, but after Japan's defeat, Thailand became a victim.

During World War II, Thailand became a vassal state of Japan and served as a military base for the Japanese army, providing strategic supplies to Japan.

Thailand and Japan signed the Treaty of Alliance between Japan and Thailand, also known as the Treaty of the Ten-Year Alliance, and also aided Japan's invasion of other countries.

At 3:30, the Japanese army marched into Thailand, invaded Thailand on the 9th, and used Thailand as a base of operations to attack Malaya, Burma and other countries. Later, Thailand and Japan signed military treaties such as the "Thai-Japanese Offensive and Defensive Alliance" and the "Japan-Thailand Cooperative Operations Guidelines", and Thailand not only allowed the Japanese army to enter Thailand and use all the communications of Thailand to attack Malaya and Burma, but also joined the Japan, Germany and Italy Triple Alliance.

Because Thailand, which had been at odds with Japan before the war, saw that Japan was about to sweep Southeast Asia, and joined the Japanese camp with "foresight".

Thailand was also very witty during World War II, it knew how to see the wind and steer, Japan was very eager to invade India and Burma, but the biggest problem was that the road was not smooth, Thailand's geographical location was favored by Japan, so it wanted to form an alliance with Thailand, Thailand saw that Japan was gaining momentum, so it joined the fascist alliance, and now we can still search for a very abrupt country in the alliance, which is Thailand. In the later stages of World War II, Thailand felt that Japan's power was different from the past, so it began to organize troops to fall to the Allies, but before the army could be raised, Germany and Japan surrendered one after another.

He was a victor in World War II, and although the country he helped failed, he did not expend any of his country's financial resources on the whole, and he was considered a victorious country in comparison.

Thailand was double-faced in World War II, so it made others angry, and I think he was a defeated country, even though a long time has passed.

In World War II, Thailand was actually a defeated country and needed some punishment, but in the end there were no sanctions against them.

Thailand was the victor in World War II, and although it suffered a lot of losses, it was still a very powerful country as a victorious country.

The victorious country in World War II. Thailand, like China, was an invaded country, and Thailand was more miserable, completely under the control of the Japanese.

The victorious country should have been obtained by some abnormal means, so it will be disputed.

Because during World War II, Thailand chose to cooperate with Japan, and in the later part of World War II, it began to resist Japan again.

Because during World War II, Japan was a fascist country, and in terms of geographical location, Thailand was located in the south. Japan was a little northerly, and the sea area was relatively wide, so it did not attack Thailand.

First, Japan and Thailand are separated by China, and their geographical location is very unfavorable for warfare. The second reason is that Thailand does not have much offensive value, and Japan needs to concentrate manpower and material resources to attack China.

During World War II, Thailand did fall to the side of fascist Japan, and after the war, Japan also provided a large amount of assistance to Thailand in terms of equipment for the navy, land and air force. Thailand was the only independent state in East Asia that did not become a European colony in World War II, and there were only three countries, namely China, Japan, and Thailand. Thailand's approach, on the other hand, is to make the most of the interests and stakes between the great powers, and to survive in the cracks.

So some people say"China is too big, Japan is too strong, and Thailand is too coincidental"。The friendly relationship between Thailand and Japan is inherently due to geographical distance, which is neither too close to conflict, nor too far away to be alienated. The victory of Japan in the Russo-Japanese War inspired Thailand, which was oppressed by the white people, and he had a good impression of Japan under the idea of being an Asian.

The two sides agreed on their stance against white Europeans and Americans, and as a result, they took a different view of Japan's actions than those of Europe and the United States, and were more tolerant than those of Europe and the United States. The best example of this is the League of Nations resolution condemning Japan for the Manchurian Incident, and the only country that abstained was Thailand, which surprised the rest of the world. The purpose of this is that in order to survive in the cracks, Thailand has adopted the practice of relying on Japan to squeeze out European and American forces.

One of the first class coastal defense ships "Thonburi", class "Thonburi" and "Ayuttaya" were built by Kawasaki Kobe Shipyard.

Here's a look at the first take, Qin Chong, and **Qilu.

In December 1941, according to the predetermined plan, the Japanese army first occupied Thailand and then attacked Malaya from Thailand. At 0:00 on December 8, 1941, the main force of the 5th Division of the Japanese Army reached southern Thailand. Before occupying Thailand, the Japanese army wanted to achieve the goal of bloodless occupation through negotiations with the Thai authorities.

As a result, since Thai Prime Minister Phibun Sonkhan and Minister of the Navy were not in the capital, the Japanese ambassador handed over the ultimatum of the Japanese army to the Thai foreign minister at 1:15 on the 8th, without a negotiating partner. At 3:30, the commander-in-chief of the Japanese Southern Army, Terauchi Shouichi, ordered the Japanese army to enter Thailand. At 4 a.m., the Japanese began to land, and the Thai army was forced to cease fire without resistance.

Then, the Japanese 5th Division went straight to the Thai border.
