At the end of the Pacific War, in order to concentrate its forces to defend the homeland, the Japanese Navy redeployed most of the ships stationed in Southeast Asia as long as they could still move. The number of Japanese Navy ships in the homeland was far greater than that in Southeast Asia. Except for a few destroyers and a few ships that were damaged in the war,
In addition to the cruisers that cannot be transferred back, the size of the ships, mainly light ships, is much larger.
Although there have been many major air raids by the US military and the Anti-Japanese Alliance on the Japanese mainland, most of the remaining ships in previous naval battles were sunk in the port, but there are still a lot of ships that survived and can still be operated. Among them are aircraft carriers.
The Hosho is the only aircraft carrier of the Japanese Navy that is still active after the end of the Pacific War and can be equipped with carrier-based aircraft for combat.
There is also the Katsuragi aircraft carrier, which is unable to take off and land aircraft due to damage to its deck, but its hull is intact and its maneuverability is still intact. These two aircraft carriers have basically maintained their maneuverability. For any military that hopes to build its own navy,
They are all priceless treasures. Although there is no carrier-based aircraft on these two aircraft carriers.
In addition to these two aircraft carriers, which basically maintain their maneuverability, there are also the battleship Nagato, the light cruiser Shusaka, and the training cruiser Kashima, which are also basically intact. More than ten ships are basically intact or only undergoing simple repairs.
There are combat-capable Japanese Navy destroyers. There are also a large number of coastal defense ships, gunboats, submarines and other ships.
Although most of the ships suffered varying degrees of damage during the US military air raids and still need some repairs before they can be put into use. But for the Chinese, these ships are still quite valuable.
Especially for the Anti-Japanese Alliance, which had never owned a warship, it was an extremely valuable asset.
At that time, Japan had announced its unconditional surrender, but the US fleet was still far away in Okinawa. In addition, Shanghai Shenstok was very close to the Japanese mainland, so the anti-alliance action was too fast. The US and British fleets that had been intercepted by the Philippines in the South China Sea faced off for two full days.
The time was different from the southern front where there was almost no fire. The resistance alliance that robbed the Japanese mainland did not encounter any resistance or difficulties.
At this time, the U.S. military had not yet entered the Japanese mainland. In addition to some advance troops, its fleet was still as far away as Okinawa and the Philippines. However, the Anti-Japanese Alliance had already airlifted an airborne division to the Japanese mainland on the day Japan announced its surrender. With this
With the support of an airborne division, the Japanese did not have the courage to make any changes even if they wanted to. The US military had not yet reacted, and the Anti-Japanese Alliance had already completed the advance reception of Japanese naval ships.
Of course, with most of these ships in need of repair, the Anti-Japanese Alliance personnel would not just accept the ships. At that time, he was transferred to the Soviet Pacific Fleet to study naval logistics and became the first deputy minister of the Navy Logistics Department after the founding of the People's Republic of China.
Guang, with the cooperation of the Anti-Japanese First Airborne Division, which had already landed on the Japanese mainland, once again exerted his ability to sweep across 800 miles.
Within the ports of Kure Port, Yokosuka, Sasebo and Yokohama, the former major naval bases of the Japanese Navy, as well as the shipbuilding industrial bases, all maintenance personnel, technicians, and even shipbuilders who were not drafted, plus those who were involved in the US military bombing
The surviving raw materials and spare parts, as well as all the ship blueprints stored in some places, were completely looted in less than five days.
After hearing the news, the U.S. fleet that rushed from Okinawa rushed to Japan. Except for the Japanese warships that were sunk by themselves and could not be salvaged, all the ports in Japan were empty. The warships originally deployed by the Japanese Navy in the mainland were empty.
, together with the maintenance personnel and surviving parts and maintenance equipment, were all looted to Lushun.
Those that could not be taken away were the ships that were sunk in the two major military ports and parked on the repair bays due to the US bombing. Together with the Yokohama Shipyard, Kure Port and Sasebo, all the infrastructure of the three major military ports in Yokosuka were completely destroyed.
.In a word, take away everything that can be taken away, and blow up everything that cannot be taken away.
All remaining personnel of the Japanese Navy in the two military ports were also captured as war criminals. Of course, when the Anti-Japanese Alliance arrested people, not just everyone was wanted. Ship commanders, tactical instructors, and various technical personnel
Personnel, even engineers from Yokohama Shipyard and Sasebo Naval Shipyard, are the main personnel arrested by the Anti-League. As for those special marines, coastal defense artillery, anti-aircraft gunners, and ordinary sailors, the Anti-League has no interest at all.
of.
Due to careful planning and decisive actions, this deception and robbery operation, which was called the most shameless operation by the Soviet Union, the United States and Britain during World War II, basically went smoothly. Except for those who stayed in the Black Sea Fleet for the final finishing touches
The man, driving a Soviet destroyer, three frigates and two tugboats, was detained outside the Bosporus Strait. The remaining ships all successfully returned to the Lushun military port under the control of the Anti-Alliance.
In fact, the Anti-Japanese Alliance's deception of Soviet naval ships was able to proceed so smoothly, and the Americans played a considerable role in it. Knowing that after the war, the Americans would no longer have the power to prevent the already powerful CCP from seizing power across the country, in order to drive a wedge between the Chinese and Soviet parties
The relationship between the Chinese and Soviet parties completely turned against each other. After discovering the actions of the Anti-Union, not only did they not stop the Anti-Union in any way, they even agreed to use their naval bases throughout Western Europe and the Indian and Pacific Oceans to support the Anti-Union.
Allied ships are refueling.
The British also opened the Suez Canal to allow the resistance ships to pass. The five warships detained in Turkey, under the protection and mediation of the Americans, were only detained for a week before being released.
What the United States and Britain are really angry about is that after these people from the Anti-Japanese Alliance entered the Indian Ocean and Pacific theaters, as long as there were Japanese naval bases along the way with the Japanese mainland, they were like a swarm of locusts, grabbing wherever they went.
Whatever ships, maintenance personnel, equipment, equipment, and those with a good appetite can be used by the navy, grab whatever you see. Especially in Singapore, Japan's main naval base at the end of the war, all the ships have navigation capabilities.
They drove away and towed away those without navigation capabilities. Even the remaining ships of the former French Navy's Far East Fleet and Thai Navy ships anchored in Saigon were all snatched away.
Even a British light cruiser and a destroyer from the British Far East Fleet that arrived in Singapore first to receive them were disarmed and taken away by the Anti-Union Fleet. The United States and Britain, which had previously condoned the Anti-Union actions, could no longer tolerate this.
The South China Sea dispatched the main fleet stationed in the Philippines and Okinawa to surround the anti-alliance fleet withdrawing from the north, and required the anti-alliance fleet to accompany them to the Philippines.
After the request of the American and British fleets was rejected without hesitation by the Anti-Japanese Alliance, the two sides faced off at sea for two full days. After the Anti-Japanese Alliance handed back two British naval ships, the Americans finally gave in. The confrontation.
When the alliance left, there were only hundreds of thousands of empty-handed soldiers, but when they came back, they were fully loaded with soldiers in army uniforms and the navy released them. Otherwise, what if the two sides still want to fight?
As the anger between the United States and Britain finally subsided, the Soviets, who abducted nearly a quarter of the surviving ships from World War II and nearly half of the equipment of destroyers and above, gave up. After sending a fleet to pursue them, they were blocked by the U.S. military intentionally or unintentionally.
, in addition to the fact that most of the large and mobile ships were abducted, the rest were small ships that could not get out of the open sea, and after no success.
The angry Soviet commander directly mobilized three fronts with millions of troops and thousands of tanks from the western front to the Sino-Soviet border. They deployed them at the Sino-Soviet and Sino-Mongolian borders. If you don’t give me an explanation, I will
Just resolutely refuse to do it, otherwise everyone will lose face and fight. At the same time, all anti-Japanese students studying in the Soviet Union will be detained.
Likewise, the central government was dumbfounded by Yang Zhen's actions. At this time, he finally understood why Yang Zhen insisted on selecting and deploying a large number of personnel to participate in the so-called support operations of the Soviet Navy despite the fact that the number of intellectuals in the Anti-Japanese Alliance itself was insufficient.
What exactly is it.
I originally thought that Yang Zhen’s move was to make basic preparations for the establishment of the CCP’s own navy. However, I thought that Yang Zhen’s original intention was to rob. Otherwise, between the two Soviet fleets separated by thousands of miles from east to west,
Where can the actions be so unified? The actions are still so decisive, without any sloppiness? This would not be possible without painstaking planning.
Almost everyone in the army sighed that this young commander of the Northeast Military Region was too courageous. Not only did you touch the tiger's butt, you also plucked all the hair off the tiger's butt.
.This kind of courage and courage is definitely not available to ordinary people.
No wonder the Soviets were angry. Excluding the huge losses during the war, Yang Zhen took almost half of the remaining large and medium-sized ships of the Soviets, and no one would replace them. Building ships is a task that consumes both money and material resources.
Things. The Soviets do not have the national strength of the Americans. The war here is in full swing, and despite the large amount of foreign aid, they can still build warships in batches like dumplings.
Moreover, the Soviet Union was in dire straits after the war and a large number of infrastructures destroyed by the war needed to be rebuilt. It is estimated that the Soviets will not and will not be able to replenish the navy with large and medium-sized ships for a long time. And Yang Zhen
How could this move not make the Soviets extremely angry? It is estimated that if Yang Zhen was in the Soviet Union at this time, the commander-in-chief would directly kill him with a thousand knives.
However, compared with the central government's worries about the Soviet people's heavy troops on the border, Yang Zhen, the first party, was not worried about the Soviets' heavy troops on the border. Facing the Soviets' attack on the border, the new commander of the Far East Military Region Vasilevsky
After Yang Zhen only handed over a list of ships to the Marshal, most of the Soviet people's annoyance disappeared.
This list is actually very short. There are only two warships on it that Yang Zhen snatched back from Japan. But it is the Soviet commander who loves large combat ships who dreams of an aircraft carrier and a battleship. And these two are
The ship is not another warship, but the original Katsuragi aircraft carrier of the Japanese Navy.
The other one is the only remaining battleship of the Japanese Navy, which once had as many as twelve battleships. Its total tonnage ranks third in the world, second only to the US and British navies. It also served as the flagship of the combined fleet for a long time.
Before the Yamato class entered service, it was the Nagato battleship, one of the most powerful battleships in the world and the iconic ship of the Japanese Navy.
