Reborn as a police officer in South Africa

You cannot apply the moral standards of peacetime to military personnel during war.

In the era of cold weapons, it was still possible to destroy a city for three days without sealing the sword. In the era of hot war, the threat to soldiers is even greater. If an incendiary bomb is thrown, the burning temperature can reach 3000 degrees, and the steel can be incinerated. It is the favorite of the European Allies.

Barbecue is almost untouched on the East Asian battlefield. Many Allied pilots feel like vomiting when they smell barbecue and will never eat barbecue in their lives.

Especially the bomber pilots who went to Tokyo to perform missions. Many bombers had their fuselages blackened when they came back. The smell of roasting human flesh made the crew members sick and vomited. Tokyo was burned to hell on earth, causing more casualties than the atomic bomb explosion.

Yes, this is why southern Africa has not yet used atomic bombs on the battlefield, because it is simply not necessary.

When the European Allied forces were about to invade the German mainland, the East Asian Allied forces were about to land on the Japanese mainland.

Like Operation Overlord, Angel and MacArthur also formulated a combat plan for the landing battle, which was named "Olympic."

In the "Olympic" plan, the East Asian Allied Forces will dispatch 68 divisions, under the cover of 24 aircraft carriers, 24 battleships, and nearly 400 other ships, to launch a landing operation in Kyushu. It is expected that all armies participating in the "Olympic" plan will

The number of troops will exceed 3 million, exceeding the 2.68 million in Normandy.

The 2.68 million here refers to the total strength of the Allied forces that landed in Normandy after the launch of "Operation Overlord".

In addition to the southern African army and the US military, the troops participating in the "Olympic" plan also included the East Indian Army, the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps, and some British and Indian troops transferred from India.

Information collected by the Allies through different channels shows that Japan still has the ability to resist. After transferring 21 divisions stationed abroad back to Japan, Japan has expanded its military three times since entering 1944. In addition to the newly formed 42

In addition to infantry divisions, 4 anti-aircraft artillery divisions and 7 tank brigades, a militia of 28 million people was also formed.

28 million!

This may be the largest military establishment in human history.

Even excluding these fill-in militiamen, Japan's mainland defense force still reaches 3.7 million people, which is not without the strength to fight.

"28 million! I very much doubt whether Japan can produce weapons that can equip 28 million people. All intelligence shows that even the front-line troops of the Japanese army are now running out of ammunition. Are the Japanese preparing to use bamboo spears to deal with them?

Our M4?" MacArthur went crazy after learning about this situation.

MacArthur always thought he was a madman.

Now he finally met a real opponent. The Japanese went crazy and even MacArthur was frightened.

When the World War broke out, Japan's total population was only 73 million, and it is definitely less than 70 million now. After the Allies began bombing the Japanese mainland, Japan's food supply, let alone ammunition, began to experience a crisis. Under this situation, Japan

A militia of 28 million people has actually been formed. This is really a preparation for 100 million jade.

M4 is the Sherman of the United States. Although the performance of this tank is not outstanding, it is simple in structure and easy to manufacture on a large scale. The United States has now produced nearly 40,000 Shermans, much more than Russia.

So Americans are really not worried about the threat from Russia, because no matter how many tanks Russia produces, the United States can produce more.

Just like the United Kingdom before World War I, the Americans are completely confident that no matter how many tanks the Russians build, the United States will build four for every one the Russians build.

Japan does not have the confidence. Since last year, Japan has stopped building new warships, and even stopped manufacturing the Type Zero, which was so brilliant in the early days of the Pacific War. All its industrial capacity has been used to build kamikaze fighters.

Kamikaze is a suicide aircraft. It has a simple engine and an iron shell, as long as it can fly. The body is filled with explosives, and the fighting method is direct impact.

The Allies estimated that Japan had at least 15,000 suicide aircraft.

What's amazing is that, to this extent, Japan's suicide planes are still divided into army and navy.

Japan has 15,000 aircraft, 10,000 navy and 5,000 army aircraft.

The Navy's goal is clear, which is to deal with Allied warships.

What does the Japanese Army want suicide aircraft to do? Is it used to hit Allied tanks?

Compared with warships, which can easily reach several hundred meters, tanks have small targets and are not easy to hit. It is doubtful whether Japan still has so many pilots.

You must know that the cost of training pilots is very high. Putting aside the cost of aircraft, does Japan still have the fuel needed to train pilots?

"It's not impossible -" An Qi handed MacArthur a photo, which showed Japanese militiamen in training. The weapons in their hands were actually wooden sticks, not even as good as bamboo spears.

In the corner of the photo, there are several Japanese officers who are inspecting militia training. Their expressions are extremely gloomy, and the situation is more severe than what Japan is facing now.

Even if the M4 isn't great, it's still a reliable tank.

Using wooden sticks to deal with M4 cannot be described as crazy. The person who made this decision wanted to drag all the Japanese to be buried with him, because judging from the attitude of the Allies towards Japan, after the war, Japan decided to launch a war.

Those people will definitely be liquidated.

Since death is inevitable anyway, it is better to die more vigorously.

"Where was this photo taken?" MacArthur was very curious. It is estimated that if he knew, he would send bombers immediately.

MacArthur lamented the madness of the Japanese, but it did not affect MacArthur's brutal killing of the Japanese. Thinking of the humiliation of being forced to flee the Philippines by the Japanese, MacArthur could not sleep at night.

"It doesn't matter where you shoot, what matters is how much resistance the Japanese still have." An Qi no longer has much interest in bombing the Japanese mainland. The only thing that excites An Qi now is landing in the Japanese mainland.

Almost all cities in Japan were carpet bombed by the Allies more than once.

Considering the power of incendiary bombs, Japan should have completely lost its ability to resist by now.

But in fact, Japan has been able to persist until now. An Qi racked her brains and couldn't find a factory in Japan that produces suicide aircraft. Of course, this has a lot to do with Japan's industrial production methods. Japan's industrial capabilities must be completely wiped out.

, unless all villages in Japan are razed to the ground.

Japan's industrial model is different from the large-scale industrial models in southern Africa and the United States. Except for a few famous naval factories, most of Japan's factories are handmade workshops scattered in residential areas. The role of the factories is assembly, so

Even if the Allies burned Tokyo to the ground, Japan would still be able to organize production.

"If we land on the Japanese mainland, we may lose 1.7 million to 4 million people." MacArthur's assessment of Japan is improving. Last year, MacArthur estimated that if we launch a landing operation on the Japanese mainland, we will only lose 2 million people at most.

"Only Japanese wooden sticks? How is that possible!" An Qi's contempt for the Japanese is evident.

Referring to the results of the Russian battlefield, if the Allied forces lost 4 million people in Japan, then Japan must be prepared to lose 40 million people, one for ten. The occupation forces' operations against enemy-occupied areas were so cruel.

Unlike the Allied forces, who fought with their hands tied in France, the Allied forces would not show any mercy when fighting on the Japanese mainland. They would drive their tanks all the way over and be done with it, and they probably wouldn't even need a few rounds of artillery shells.

Because earthquakes occur frequently in Japan, for safety reasons, most Japanese houses are made of wooden structures. This structure is most conducive to the use of incendiary bombs. At the same time, it has no defense against tanks and can be directly hit.

In order to reduce casualties, the Allies will not engage in urban battles with Japan. Even if the Japanese want to imitate the Russians in relying on urban defense, they do not have the conditions.

In order to withstand the severe cold, most of the buildings in Russia are made of square reinforced concrete. Such buildings are naturally strong fortresses and are purely for military service. Therefore, the Russians have the capital to fight the Germans in a city battle, but the Japanese do not.

"If we could drop a few atomic bombs on Japan, it might break the Japanese's will to fight." MacArthur wanted to see how powerful the atomic bombs in southern Africa were.

"Aren't you about to successfully develop it? If you don't use it now, you won't have a chance in the future -" An Qi also wanted to see how powerful the American atomic bomb was.

"Don't listen to the president's nonsense in St. Petersburg. It's early, and there's no trace of it—" MacArthur was rebellious and easily exposed the research progress of the United States.

Of course, it could also be a smoke bomb. No one can tell whether this is true or not. Unless the United States actually uses the atomic bomb on the battlefield, it can prove that the United States has successfully developed it.

From this perspective, the United States also doubts whether southern Africa possesses atomic bombs.

Angel did not explain and continued to prepare the "Olympic" plan.

Of the 68 divisions participating in the "Olympic" plan, 27 are from Southern Africa and 25 are from the United States. All participating troops in Southern Africa are already in place. Some of the participating troops in the United States are in Europe. They will have to wait until the war in Europe is completed before they can be dispatched.

The troops are mobilized.

Analyzing this situation, the U.S.'s so-called 10 million troops also have problems. There are only 21 divisions of the U.S. military in the entire Pacific region with less than one million people. Excluding the garrison troops that cannot participate in the war, only 10 U.S. Eighth Army troops can participate in the "Olympics".

To do this, we need to transfer 15 divisions from Europe.

Interestingly, Southern Africa also claims to have formed a force of 10 million people, but in fact it is definitely far less than that. Even if all the servant armies are included, it is still less than 10 million.

It is estimated that the only country with a real army of 10 million is Russia.

Therefore, bearded people are the most honest people, and they are really confident.

Not counting the troops in training, Russia has more than 10 million troops fighting on the front lines alone. This is after Russia has already lost 30 million troops.

Looking at it this way, Angsa, who boasts about "Normandy" in another time and space without any bottom line, is really shameless.

Just pick it up when it's cheap, and you have the nerve to talk about the turning point of World War II. What's even more amazing is that many people actually believe it. Where's their brains?

Look at the old, weak, sick and disabled people of the Axis Powers in France, and look at the battles on the Russian battlefield that often involve millions of people. If Normandy can become a turning point, then there will be too many turning points in World War II.

It’s not that An Qi looks down on Americans, but the performance of the US military in the North African battlefield really put the US military up against the elite German army in the early days of World War II. The performance of the US military was probably worse than even that of France.

During the North African campaign, Rommel's men were just a group of improvised scraps, and they defeated the U.S. military in disgrace.

If he had really been replaced by elite troops on the Russian battlefield, Rommel would have been fishing in the Suez Canal when the North African campaign broke out.

Troops in southern Africa preparing to participate in the "Olympic" plan are gathering in the Philippines. The Anzac and British-Indian troops are all in place. Now they are waiting for the United States to mobilize troops from the European battlefield.

In the plan submitted by MacArthur, the troops to be mobilized by the United States were the First Army, and the main force of the First Army was under the command of Eisenhower to attack the Liege Fortress with all its strength.

The massing of millions of troops in the Philippines was a huge test for Allied logistics.

The Allied forces' support for the East Asian battlefield is obviously not as strong as that of the European battlefield.

In order to prepare for Operation Overlord, the Allied forces prepared for two years and stockpiled a large amount of supplies in the UK, but they still struggled to fight.

The distance from Portsmouth to Normandy is only over 100 kilometers, and the distance from the Philippines to Kyushu is more than 1,600 kilometers. Such a long supply line will completely collapse the Allied logistics, so Angel must also find a more suitable advance base.

Of course there are suitable advance bases, so Ryukyu became the best choice.

In the Battle of Ryukyu, the Allied forces suffered heavy losses. In just three months, the U.S. military alone suffered 75,000 casualties, 700 aircraft, and 400 ships.

The Japanese suffered 110,000 casualties and lost 7,000 aircraft and 20 ships.

In addition, civilian casualties alone on the island exceeded 100,000.

In the past, "exceed" was used to indicate that the number was huge and looked shocking.

The word "more than" is used here because it is impossible to rule the specific number. Only documented records indicate that it exceeds 100,000 people.

The Japanese shout "one hundred million pieces of jade" to express their determination to fight to the end.

Ryukyu was really shattered. After this battle, except for a small part of the Ryukyu people who retreated to the Japanese mainland, all the rest were dead, leaving only a bare island for the Allies.

During the Battle of Ryukyu, Army Lieutenant General Buckner, commander of the U.S. 10th Army, was killed while observing the battle. He was the highest-ranking U.S. military general killed in the Pacific War.

There is a huge gap between the equipment of the Japanese army in Ryukyu and that of the US military.

The US military lost 372 tanks in the Battle of Ryukyu, and the Japanese army lost none.

The equipment gap is so huge, but the result is like this. No wonder the United States estimates that the "Olympic" operation will lose 4 million people.

An Qi's favorite battle is equipment crushing. With absolute air superiority, absolute sea superiority, and absolute army equipment superiority, the enemy has basically no ability to resist, and only Americans can achieve such a battle loss ratio.

Now Angel has begun to stockpile supplies needed for the "Olympic" plan in Ryukyu, and countless ships loaded with various military supplies are gathering in Ryukyu.

This level of material mobilization certainly could not be hidden from the Japanese. In response to the Allied forces' material mobilization, the Japanese army began a planned attack on Ryukyu.

The Japanese Army's suicide planes can finally be put to use.
