The strategic confusion measures that Yang Zhen took painstakingly can be considered to have played a certain role. The Americans, who were devastated by the huge casualties in the two battles of Iwo Jima and Okinawa, experienced indifference in the entire first half of the four to five years.
, proposed for the first time that a group of landing fleets could be mobilized for use by the anti-alliance landing forces.
On the Pacific battlefield at this moment, the exhausted US military finally captured Okinawa after a month of hard fighting after paying nearly 100,000 casualties. Although the proportion of casualties paid was much smaller than that of Iwo Jima. But because of the number of troops invested
The larger number also makes the overall casualty number much higher.
Every building and even every grave on Okinawa has become a fortification for the Japanese army. The large amount of ammunition and arms accumulated on the island, as well as the temporarily armed civilians, relied on the fortification groups everywhere to create a
A brutal battle.,
During the battle on Okinawa, the Japanese continued to launch suicide offensives, which also brought countless troubles to the U.S. military. In particular, the Japanese took advantage of Okinawa's far more convenient conditions than Iwo Jima and invested a larger number of suicide boats.
Coupled with suicide planes, Americans suffered extremely.
The Japanese hold on to the idea that we will die together, and even if I die, I will drag you to jump into the well. During the entire Battle of Okinawa, the Japanese dispatched much larger suicide planes and a large number of suicides than during the Battle of Iwo Jima.
The speedboat taught the U.S. Navy what it means to be crazy.
Iwo Jima and Okinawa suffered huge casualties in two battles, plus the battlefield in the Philippines that has not yet been completely cleared. Facing the next attack on the Japanese mainland, they will face more fierce resistance and pay more heavy casualties. The Americans
Finally made some kind of decision.
In this war against Japan, even if the Americans wanted to get other countries to join in, they searched around and found that they could not find a scapegoat like those on the European battlefield. In the European battlefield, the capture of Berlin was regarded as a symbol of their victory.
The Soviets, who never thought about giving up the honor of conquering Berlin to the Americans, took over the hardest work, allowing the U.S. military to avoid huge casualties in the street battles in Berlin.
But this time the war against Japan is different. On the European battlefield, it is difficult to find people who are as brave as the Soviets to take the blame. No matter what aspect, the Chinese use the excuse that there are still a large number of Japanese troops in their country that have not been wiped out, and they don’t want to go into this muddy water at all.
.Although the Anti-Japanese Alliance made some remarks, when it came to the joint landing in Japan, they either started Tai Chi or opened their mouths.
The Americans, who did not get anything of value from Yang Zhen, faced the Japanese who did not take human life seriously and were willing to destroy hundreds of millions of people all day long. If they attack the Japanese mainland themselves and face the crazy Japanese, the Americans
People expected that they would suffer about one million casualties. The two bloody battles on Iwo Jima and Okinawa really scared the Americans.
This number of casualties is absolutely unacceptable to the Americans. After the Potsdam Declaration issued in July 1945 was rejected by the Japanese, the Americans, who once again suffered huge casualties in Okinawa, decided that I would not agree with you.
The lunatic is playing on the ground. I want to change my method of play and kill you completely at once.
On August 2, 1945, the Soviets suddenly and absolutely declared war on Japan for unknown reasons. However, they did not take any actual action. They only expelled Japanese oil workers on North Sakhalin Island and dispatched
Dozens of planes symbolically bombed the Southern Kuril Islands and Hokkaido.
The only remaining action was to concentrate the forces of a group army on North Sakhalin Island. It continued to carry out large-scale artillery bombardments on the Japanese-controlled areas on South Sakhalin Island. However, its main force in the war against Germany was still in an orderly manner in the direction of Europe.
There is no intention to restore it to the east.
Even its Pacific Fleet basically did not take any action. The Soviets did not want to pay a high price for the Japanese, so their actions made the Americans a little anxious. The Soviets obviously wanted to come to Asia to take advantage.
Plus get a share of the pie.
The price you paid by the Soviets on the European battlefield was not small, and the Americans do not deny this. But in the Pacific battlefield, we ourselves defeated it. What's the point of you catching up and joining forces at this time? The key is
It's not a problem to join in, but what does it mean when you bluff?
The Americans, who did not want the Soviets to get involved in Japanese affairs after the war, nor did they want to suffer heavy casualties by attacking the Japanese mainland, sent personnel to inform the Anti-Japanese Alliance on August 4th not to carry out air strikes in Japan in the near future to avoid accidental damage.
After receiving the ultimatum from the Americans, Yang Zhen knew that the Americans had made up their minds.
On August 6, 1945, the Americans, who had lost all their patience, took off B-29 bombers from Tinian Island and dropped a bomb of human history on Hiroshima, the main industrial city on Honshu Island in Japan and the current main arms industry center.
The first atomic bomb used in actual combat.
Although the damage caused by this atomic bomb to Hiroshima was smaller than the United States originally expected, as the first nuclear weapon used in actual combat in human history, its huge power still brought devastating damage to Hiroshima.
This atomic bomb, which had a yield of more than 10,000 tons and exploded at an altitude of 600 meters, turned Hiroshima into a terrifying city.
The explosion of the atomic bomb produced a strong light wave that blinded thousands of people. The high temperature of more than 6,000 degrees reduced everything within the scope of the explosion to ashes. The huge shock wave generated by the explosion of the atomic bomb almost razed the entire Hiroshima.
Flat ground. The entire core area of the Hiroshima atomic bomb explosion was filled with instantly melted corpses.
The black rain full of radioactive materials produced after the nuclear explosion also exposed people who were lucky enough to escape during the explosion to a large amount of nuclear radiation, and they will suffer long or short periods of time in the future, but they will not
It is an extremely painful road to death. And the rivers in Hiroshima City also turned into rivers of death because of these black rains.
The tens of thousands of people who died immediately were not the end of this first actual nuclear explosion in human history. Along with the citizens of Hiroshima, there are also nuclear radiation that cannot be completely eliminated in the next few decades, as well as the sequelae caused by infection with nuclear radiation.
That is the leukemia and other nuclear radiation diseases that have plagued Hiroshima for decades.
Mankind's first nuclear weapon used in actual combat exploded on the Japanese mainland, which caused huge disasters throughout Asia. This atomic bomb, which was used in actual combat for the first time, made the troops who once cheered for the Nanjing Massacre and ravaged the entire Pacific for them
, capture every city, create cheers for every massacre.
They are proud to join the army and massacre civilians of other countries, and even women are proud to use their bodies to comfort the so-called loyal and brave Imperial Army soldiers. The whole country cheers for militarism, and the Japanese have created countless mass graves in China. They know what it means to not retaliate.
, but the time has not yet come.
In the stubborn Japanese base camp, facing this powerful bomb, they still stubbornly remained silent. They still did not give any answer to the ultimatum from the United States. Internally, they not only forcibly suppressed news about the Hiroshima atomic bomb.
, and they are still preaching that Americans only have one, and now that they have been thrown, it is gone.
The Japanese's refusal to answer is their own business. But for Yang Zhen, this Hiroshima nuclear explosion is a rare opportunity to collect information, grasp the progress of American nuclear research, and the true performance of the American atomic bomb, as well as collect nuclear explosions
Opportunity for first-hand information.
Just when the Americans dropped mankind's first actual combat nuclear weapon on Hiroshima, a specially modified Anti-League B-24 bomber was also secretly tracking and filming the entire process. Not only the actual explosion of this American atomic bomb, this
The instruments on the plane are constantly collecting samples of nuclear radiation.
After the atomic bomb exploded, the plane even ventured into the mushroom cloud and collected a large amount of first-hand nuclear explosion data. After the plane returned, the collected data was sent to where it should go as soon as possible. But
The crew of the plane and the technicians on board paid the price with their lives.
Nuclear radiation sickness many years later has been tormenting these original volunteers. Most of them died prematurely due to nuclear radiation sickness. These heroic air crews and technicians have become China's
The first martyrs of the development of the nuclear industry.
The Japanese were frightened by the explosion of an atomic bomb, but the tough-talking Japanese still did not choose to surrender. They continued to preach about 100 million pieces of jade and a decisive battle on the mainland all day long. The American propaganda offensive after the atomic bombing of Hiroshima did not have any effect on them.
think it should play a role.
The Japanese were so stubborn that the Americans finally decided to take another one. Since the Americans had already done the first year of junior high school, they were never afraid of doing the fifteenth again. On August 9, an atomic bomb exploded in Hiroshima.
An atomic bomb with a completely different structure was dropped on Nagasaki on Kyushu Island by the American B-29 bomber.
This time, Nagasaki was bombed again, and the Anti-Japanese Alliance reconnaissance planes still participated in the entire process. For both Anti-Japanese Alliance attacks, they sent planes to watch the entire process, and openly collected samples and information in front of themselves. The arrogant Americans
In addition to being a little confused as to why the Chinese are so accurate in judging the targets they choose.
From the bottom of my heart, I didn't take the Chinese people's peeping seriously at all. I didn't even take the action of expulsion. You can visit and extract information as you like. In fact, you are very clear about the power of these two atomic bombs and the sequelae of nuclear explosions.
The Americans retreated as soon as the throwing was completed.
As for the Chinese people's peeping, he has no way to stop him even if he wants to. Because the lethality of the atomic bomb does not matter whether you are the developer or the victim. The lethality of nuclear radiation is fair to everyone. More
What's more, the Americans don't want to intercept them. It's not a bad thing for the Americans to let the red Chinese understand the power of these atomic bombs.
Americans' view is very simple. You don't have the strength to study this thing anyway. Let alone just take some data, if you put an atomic bomb in front of you, do you have the industrial capacity to manufacture it? Americans have invested huge amounts of money in developing atomic bombs.
, you Chinese people can’t even afford it.
A single uranium enrichment can bankrupt China's entire electricity industry, not to mention that you can't build this thing just by giving you resources. Do you have such strong scientific and technological talents to work for you? So Americans are not worried.
These things of mine fell into the hands of the Chinese.
If the Soviets did this, the Americans would definitely disagree. But when it comes to the Chinese who still need to rely heavily on the Americans to maintain the war, the Americans are very generous and don't care if they are red.
Chinese, or some other color.
What's more, for Americans, if they don't stop the Chinese from watching and peeping, in addition to fundamentally looking down on the Chinese's technical capabilities, they also have some unflattering thoughts. Americans are very clear about their relationship with the red Chinese.
