At this time, most geologist in the world believed in the German theory and believed that only the coastal continental shelf had oil, so the Japanese desperately wanted to occupy Southeast Asia during World War II.
If Japan had discovered Daqing's oil in Northeast China (i.e. Manchukuo) before 1942, the Japanese army would still have gone south to invade Singapore, Indonesia, Indochina and other places, because rubber, tin, aluminum, and sulfur are also important strategic materials, and going south would have
It is not difficult for the Japanese army and navy to attack, but they will not attack Pearl Harbor for the time being and the United States declares war. The Pacific War between Japan and the United States is ultimately the oil embargo imposed by the United States on Japan. Japan's inherent island nation crisis awareness and militarism must allow them to launch
Fighting against the United States, even though many military generals at that time opposed the war against the United States, such as Kanji Ishihara of the Army, Mitsumasa Yoneuchi of the Navy, Isoroku Yamamoto, etc.
The cumulative proven petroleum geological reserves of Daqing Oilfield reach 5.67 billion tons. The oil layer is Mesozoic continental Cretaceous sandstone with a depth of 900 meters to 1200 meters. The medium permeability is enough to supply Japan's war machine and domestic demand. However, it should be noted that:
In "Modern History of Japan", we often see the words "What would have happened if we had found the Daqing Oil Field". They always felt "regret" for not being able to find the Daqing Oil Field before the war. Former Tokyo Institute of Technology professor Kiyoshi Morikawa recalled "Manchuria"
"In oil development," he said that the reason why the Daqing Oil Field could not be found was "because the depth of Japanese drilling before the war only reached about 700-800 meters, and drilling technology was difficult to reach sufficient depth." In fact, it marked the first discovery of the Daqing Oil Field.
An oil well, Songji San Well, produced oil only when it was drilled to the oil layer between 1357-1382 meters. This confirms this statement to a certain extent. In this regard, the most enlightening and authoritative thing is the geology of our country.
According to the master Huang Jiqing, he and Li Siguang are the proposers of the theory of "oil generation from continental strata". He is also the main discoverer of the Daqing Oil Field. He once said: The Japanese have been searching for 30 years in the Northeast but have not found an oil field. That is
Because they don’t understand that continental strata can produce oil.
At that time, only Li Siguang, a doctor studying in the United States, said that there was oil in the sedimentary zone inside the road. But no one believed this young Chinese's theory, no matter the Americans, Japanese, Germans, or Russians.
But now Li Siguang is a general of the Qin State Oil and Gas Company, and he has rich theories. This time he will be the leader of the oil team in the Northeast.
Before going to the Northeast, Wang Jiuling, Li Siguang and others carefully studied the terrain of the Northeast. Based on his own theory, Li Siguang believed that oil fields across China are in basins. The larger the basin, the larger the oil fields.
If the Japanese had understood this truth during World War II, they would have been able to drill wells in low-lying areas of large basins, and they would have been able to produce oil. Unfortunately, the Japanese actively learned from the West, and at the same time were deceived by Westerners' erroneous theories. Westerners believed that there were only marine sedimentary basins.
Only then there is oil, and China's basins are continental deposits. Without oil, even if a little oil is extracted from the Yumen Oilfield, China will be an oil-poor country. The Japanese believed in the wrong theories of the West and had no confidence in finding oil in the Northeast. They did not believe in finding oil in the Northeast.
Large oil fields can be developed, so they just drilled a few wells in high places to try and then gave up. If the Japanese, who have no oil, find oil in the Northeast, they will never go to war with the United States, the world's number one industrial power. Instead, they will go north to fight Germany.
If the Soviet Union is attacked from both sides, the victory of the World Anti-Fascist War will be greatly delayed and history will be rewritten.
In October 1937, based on geologist Li Siguang's theory that China has oil, China mobilized 30,000 soldiers and 5,000 Qin oil workers to launch a large-scale oil battle in Daqing, and finally developed China's largest oil field.
Each of the three northeastern provinces has large oil fields, such as Daqing Oil Field, Jilin Oil Field, and Liaohe Oil Field. After the discovery of Daqing Oil Field, oil fields were discovered in these places in various places based on Li Siguang's theory.
For a time, Li Siguang became famous and became a man of the world. His theory was quickly promoted in every corner of the country. The German theory was no longer the only one, so a large group of people went to the basins of their own countries to dig wells and see.
See if there is oil
The discovery of oil in the Northeast was undoubtedly a slap in the face to the Japanese. China discovered oil just a short time ago, but Japan has been the de facto ruler here since the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1894. For thirty or forty years, no oil has been discovered.
We spend a lot of foreign exchange every day to import oil.
Japan's oil sector was constantly threatened and intimidated by people from the military. They were too angry, but this time the Japanese once again reflected on their mistakes.
The Chinese people do not worship foreigners. They dare to emancipate their minds, are good at theoretical innovation, and have the courage to be self-reliant. They believe that China has oil. As a result, large oil fields have been discovered in many places in China.
The Japanese could not find oil in Northeast China, not because their technical conditions were not good, but because they were superstitious about wrong Western theories and believed that China had no oil, which led to dogmatic thinking, conservative and rigid actions, and the result was that their cleverness was misled by their cleverness.
Judging from the performance of the Chinese people, a country that has been able to lead the world's civilization for five thousand years cannot be a failure because of its temporary decline. As long as they adjust, it will be a matter of time for them to lead the world again.
The Japanese government has to change its national defense policy again. The Japanese cannot defeat them now, and they will be unable to defeat Qin and China in the future. And the longer the delay, then the strength of China and Qin will not be equal to that of Japan.
If they can be compared, the gap between the two countries will become wider and wider. From now on, let alone fighting two countries, even if they fight one country, they will not have an advantage, or they will not be able to fight at all.
Of course, there is no need to talk about Qin. Let’s just say that after China’s two or three years, even if it is a one-on-one battle, Japan will have no chance to defeat China, but China will have a chance to destroy Japan.
The Japanese government's military politicians, who were still wandering, this time completely turned to the eastward movement to seize the Americas. The United States is indeed number one in the world in terms of industrial strength, but Americans are afraid of death, especially when millions of troops invade the Americans.
When the Americans were at home, the Americans were even more afraid. Even if the Chinese killed hundreds of thousands, millions, or even tens of millions, they would still fight. But the Americans couldn't. If they killed millions, the whole country would probably surrender immediately.
At the same time, except for the industrial aspect, the United States is more developed than China and Qin, but it cannot compare with China and Qin in any other aspect, and it is far behind. Moreover, China and Qin have always been wary of Japan, and Japan has nothing good at all.
If the opportunity arises, even if the raid succeeds and the leader of a certain country is killed, and the leader of another country is present, Japan has no chance of winning.
