- At 11:00 noon on September 20, 1941, Emperor Song Biao formally approved the imperial cabinet Prime Minister Gu Weijun and the approval of the declaration of war on Italy submitted yesterday. By 3:00 p.m., Vice Chairman of the Central Defense Commission and Chief of General Staff of the Central Military Department This resolution was officially announced in Congress.
The next day, officials from the embassies of the Axis countries such as Germany, Poland, and Italy in China successively received orders from the Reich Ministry of Foreign Affairs, declaring the suspension of formal diplomatic relations between the Empire and the Axis powers and slave countries. Diplomatic officials of the Axis countries in China were given a deadline of 48 After leaving Chinese territory within hours, multiple special planes arranged by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs repatriated them and their families to the United States in batches.
The Second World War has since entered its peak stage, and the Allied counterattack has also begun.
Two days after the Chinese Empire officially declared war, the Asian League Council voted for a resolution in Beijing, and passed the vote with a majority. The Asian League collectively declared war on the Axis Powers, and held an international conference in Shanghai with Britain, France and other countries to sign the "Shanghai Anti-Aggression" "International Military Alliance Entente", in which the Allies launched World War II against the Axis Powers in order to make the Axis Powers accept unconditional surrender.
The international energy and influence of the Chinese Empire are unprecedented in scale, second only to the British Empire in the early 20th century. Its economic, industrial, technological and military strength far exceeds that of the British Empire in that period. It is also the largest empire in world history. The most powerful world overlord.
Once the Empire decided to participate in World War II, it had actually decided the final direction of the war. The naval strength of the Empire and Britain was enough to ensure the Allied camp¡¯s monopoly on world sea power and end the maritime space of Germany and the Axis powers. This also means that in addition to the existing local and slave resources of the Axis powers, the international resources in other regions around the world will basically belong to the Allied camp.
Outside of the European continent, any country that joins the Axis Steel Alliance will be seeking death.
The Empire's Central Naval Aviation Combined Fleet is also the strongest navy in history, with more than 14 aircraft carriers and more than 200 escort and anti-submarine warships. Once stationed in Lisbon, its strength will be enough to cover the entire Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea, which will also mean that Germany and the Italian Navy were completely sunk, with no possibility of turning around.
The Imperial Air Force has 63,000 military aircraft and more than 35,000 tanks. There are more than 80,000 self-propelled artillery and towed artillery pieces. This kind of military strength itself is already equivalent to the entire Axis Powers combined. Once the force scale is expanded to the expected 15 million, the number of major equipment such as aircraft and tanks will be doubled, which is enough to submerge the entire Axis Powers in the torrent of steel. .
The total number of military personnel is not difficult to expand. Among the Axis Powers. Germany and Poland alone have the strength to exceed the total strength of 15 million troops. However, the total number of air force pilots approaching 70,000, as well as tank and armored vehicle drivers, gunners, and command officers at all levels of related services cannot be cultivated by various countries in a few years. This is the war strength that the empire has cultivated over 30 years based on a population of 400 million.
So, military powers are not so easy to mess with.
The gap between Nazi Germany and the Chinese Empire, the gap between the world's second military power and the world's number one military power is here.
Compared with the German Air Force, which has just entered the jet age, the empire has completely entered the jet age. The j6\606 series of jet fighters are in full service. The Chinese and German air forces are completely different in generation. In the naval competition, Germany is also far behind China. Too far away, the closest thing between China and Germany is the army.
China is not easy to mess with. If you want to challenge China's world dominance under immature conditions, you will have to pay a heavy price.
Before and after China officially declared war on Italy, the Imperial Defense Forces had launched a large-scale offensive in North Africa. A total of 2.7 million troops from four armies and the Allied Powers were invested in the North African battlefield. In the northern theater, the Empire dispatched 3 additional troops to the Northwest Allied Forces within a week. An army group, and four more armies will be dispatched in the next month, to contain the German Army Group Center and Army Group North in the northern battlefield, reduce the military pressure on the southern European battlefield, and buy time for the British Army to intervene in the southern European battlefield on a large scale.
The total force dispatched by the empire in the northern battlefield will reach 15 armies, nearly 4.3 million troops, accounting for 2/5 of the empire's total force. This is the main battlefield of the empire, while the southern European battlefield is mainly composed of Britain, France, Spain and other alliances** The empire only dispatched three army groups and the air force to coordinate operations.
After China officially declared war, the whole world was shocked, and Germany, Poland, and Italy were even more horrified. Especially for Poland, the shock level was very severe, because Poland was actually the most powerful among the three major Axis powers. Those who are most pro-China also know China¡¯s military strength best.
Before 1940, the number of officers trained by Poland every year was only 1/4 of Germany, and only 1/12 of China. This was the main gap between the two sides.
With China¡¯s participation in the war, World War II became a truly global war.
¡¡
¡°Wars are fought by people.
Emperor Song Biao knew this very well, because he had fought too many wars in his life, and he was also the person who understood the nature of war best. On the afternoon of the day he signed the declaration of war, in order to let the people truly understand the challenges facing the country, He is preparing to publish a hadith to the people of the whole country through China Radio, and his voice will be spread to the entire world through radio waves.
The previously determined hadith time was 3 p.m., and Emperor Song Biao arrived at the Capitol Building in the Central Square at 2:20. More than 100,000 people had gathered in the square, and everyone was waiting for His Majesty Emperor Hua. 's appearance.
In the Prime Minister's Lounge of the Capitol Building, Emperor Song Biao spent his last moments reviewing this speech. This manuscript has been revised three times, and most of the content is still written by him personally, because only he knows what he is doing. What do you want to say?
Regardless of whether they support the war or not, all 355 members of Congress are waiting in the hall. Some of you are looking forward to it, some are uneasy, but everyone knows that no matter what their previous attitude was, after the emperor makes his position clear, they must Completely and unconditionally support the emperor's decision.
This is the political ecology of the empire.
No one can challenge the emperor's authority.
The empire does not have a House of Representatives and a Senate. The members of Congress themselves are a combination of members of the upper and lower houses of Congress. After successive reorganizations, the current members of Congress are contested by each government, with each government running for one member of Congress, plus 30 additional members of Congress from the central non-constituency, forming this huge Congress.
Although there are many members, the Liberation Party and the Social Democratic Party still account for the majority. The two-party ruling coalition occupies nearly 2/3 of the seats in the parliament, and the Democratic Party and other right-wing parties combined exceed 1/3.
The repeated expansion of the number of members of Congress has actually weakened the political influence of individual members of Congress. Basically, the political party determines everything.
Although there are factional disputes within each political party. Through the dual role mechanism of the party¡¯s Central Committee and the Central Cabinet. It basically guarantees the stability of the country's politics. Under such circumstances, as long as the party bosses are consistent with the emperor, it will only take a short time for the entire political world to turn around.
Sometimes it¡¯s just a word from the emperor.
After reading the speech silently for the last time. Emperor Song Biao was accompanied by Gu Weijun, Prime Minister of the Cabinet, Yang Zhaolin, Chairman of the Restoration Party, and more than 20 other major parliamentarians. Let's go to the north pavilion of the Capitol. Everything here is ready, and under the pavilion are nearly 100,000 citizens who came to listen to the emperor's holy teachings.
Before walking to the pavilion, Emperor Song Biao looked at the people in front of him. He knew in his heart that the fate of the empire lay in his speech.
This is the true emperor's speech.
It will determine the fate of a nation and world history.
The imperial court prepared a teleprompter board one meter in front of the microphone, and arranged the speeches separately to help the emperor deliver his speech smoothly and fluently.
Emperor Song Biao was already very familiar with this speech. His memory was not so bad that he could not recite several thousand words of the speech in a week. However, he still carefully looked at the teleprompter board and looked at the central square in front of him again. With tens of thousands of citizens on board, he could feel the power of this country in the sea of ??people.
Song Biao looked at everyone silently and waited quietly amidst the cheers of the people. After waiting for about ten seconds, he raised his finger and pointed at the sky and said: "Fifty million compatriots and citizens, we live in In this great country, the glory and greatness of the empire today is the result of our hard work over the past thirty years. This is a real miracle in the history of the world. From a poor and weak country, we have become As the most prosperous and powerful country in the world, today, we have extensive interests all over the world. These national interests are the foundation for maintaining the special status of the Chinese Empire in the world, and this foundation is closely related to our interests and the relationship between our Chinese nation and our country. The hope for world peace is being severely challenged by Axis fascism."
The survival of the country is the responsibility of every man.
The honor and disgrace of the country are shared by every man.
The country does not belong to a political party, nor does it belong to the emperor, but belongs to the 50 million compatriots and citizens.
China can only be No. 1 in the world and cannot accept No. 2, let alone tolerate the challenge of fascist Germany. Even through war, China must severely counterattack its opponents to defend China's national interests, the dignity of the Chinese nation, and the World peace and order.
This is the theme of Song Biao¡¯s speech.
China is facing challenges. If it continues to adopt the policy of appeasement and gives fascist Germany ten years, eventually even China will suffer from fascist Germany and the Axis powers.aggression.
China has reached a moment when it must use war to directly overthrow the fascist tyranny, and there is no way out.
¡°China can no longer tolerate it, and there is no need to endure it any longer.
¡¡
Emperor Song Biao was not a very famous speaker, so in the past thirty years, the number of public speeches he gave was always very few, but every time he gave a public speech, it would have a great impact on the entire empire and the world. Producing amazing influence, this is his authority, this is his status.
The fifty million citizens of the Chinese nation are extremely loyal and willing to accept the leadership of Emperor Hua. This time, Emperor Song Biao once again led them to a new war, and like previous times, he promised to bring more to the country and nation. honor, and more benefits.
This is enough.
China must participate in the war and win the final victory at all costs, because this is the dignity of the Chinese nation and the Chinese Empire as the world hegemon.
Facing the 100,000 people in the square, Emperor Song Biao stood tall on the pavilion of the Capitol Building with his aging body. Screaming his views to the entire world, he will make the final decision to lead the entire public opinion to the final victory.
People's enthusiasm was ignited in an instant. The excitement in the square was transmitted to all corners of the country through radio. Domestic public opinion was reversed almost in an instant. Yesterday, people were still debating whether it was beneficial to declare war on the Axis Powers. Whether the interests of the country are in line with the peace-loving tradition of the Chinese nation, etc. Today, people are already pursuing the final national victory and the most glorious moment of great rejuvenation.
Emperor Song Biao¡¯s statement was extremely motivating, and all the media quickly turned around. Actively promote the need for war. Denounce the anti-human atrocities of fascism and Nazism, and preach that the empire must maintain its hegemonic spirit of being number one in the world.
Disputes will only waste human time. Action must be taken now to use war to defend the interests of the empire and the Chinese nation.
The empire was re-established in this outcry. Everything seems to have returned to the time when the third Sino-Japanese War broke out. Everyone actively seeks to fight. The authority and appeal of the Song Emperor had an extremely strong effect immediately. Almost as early as the afternoon of the same day, the recruitment offices in various counties across the country received an unprecedented sea of ??applicants.
In this era. The Chinese Empire is the most powerful war machine in the world. With the sudden start of this war machine, the war potential of the entire country has finally burst out. The scale of recruitment of new soldiers across the country has been expanded accordingly. In order to make up for the shortage of officers , the Central Military Headquarters temporarily added crash courses for non-commissioned officers in various military academies.
Overseas Chinese also actively responded to the call to join the army, and the sales of national war bonds exceeded 4 billion yuan in a few days.
As the empire officially declared war, the Central Defense Council replaced the central cabinet and launched a new wartime cabinet government. Although most of the cabinet ministers were still former cabinet members, the powers and institutions had undergone substantial changes, and more companies Being included in the production system of the imperial industry, in the future, the scale of the empire's military industry production will continue to more than double.
The empire has established a larger air force training base, which will further accelerate the training of more air force pilots and use a larger air force to sweep across the entire Eurasian continent.
The four new Northwest-class aircraft carriers of the Imperial Navy will also be put into service within a year, allowing the J605 jet carrier aircraft to begin to enter the big stage of world war history. It is expected that eight Northwest-class aircraft carriers will be built with a 75,000-ton super With displacement and the second-generation steam ejection device developed by Northeast Heavy Industries, this new class of aircraft carriers will gradually replace the empire's original Novosibirsk-class and Northeast-class aircraft carriers.
Taking advantage of the God-given opportunity of World War II, the Empire will establish six large naval bases around the world, so that the Empire's air fleet can effectively cover the entire world's oceans and compress the power space of other competitors through sea power.
Thirty years ago, the empire could only be regarded as a traditional land power. But today, the territory of the empire has expanded to the Arctic Ocean in the north, the Java Sea in the south, the South Pacific in the east, and the Indian Ocean in the west. The empire is in the Port of Aden. The three-point layout of North Madasgas Port and Andaman Port is enough to ensure that the Imperial Navy also has absolute control in the Indian Ocean.
This huge empire will continue to expand further, which is why the empire is determined to join World War II.
¡¡
The peak moment of World War II has finally arrived. This is already a real Sino-German war. Before the empire officially declared war, the imperial armored forces, with the cooperation of the air force, swept across Libya and almost wiped out the entire Italian army from the Libyan colony. It is obvious that Italy cannot kill the empire's opponents without expulsion.
The empire swept everything in North Africa. On the Russian battlefield, the main forces of China and Germany continued to gather.??A Battle of Volga of unprecedented scale is about to come. The day after the declaration of war, the Imperial Air Force launched uninterrupted patrols on the entire west coast of Volga. Small-scale air battles occurred one after another, but this was not the moment when the empire's large-scale battle began. This is just a mutual test between the air forces of both sides, as well as various reconnaissance efforts by the Imperial Air Force to further determine the location of the enemy's main air base.
At high altitude, the C2 high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft developed by the Imperial Northeast Aviation Industry Corporation has appeared. It conducts reconnaissance at altitudes above 24,000 meters that German fighter planes cannot effectively reach. It uses high-altitude cameras to take comprehensive scanning spy photos of the German ground deployment.
The sudden appearance of c2 after the declaration of war had a great impact on Nazi Germany. Even if a fighter plane capable of counterattack was built at the fastest speed, it would still take half a year. Even if Germany could barely effectively intercept it, due to the development cycle of related synthetic aperture radar, high-definition resolution combined shooting system, and high-power engine system, it would be enough for Germany to be unable to obtain the same high-altitude reconnaissance capabilities before the end of World War II.
In fact, the C2 has been in service since 1940, but under strict confidentiality measures, it has never been exposed, and it has not been used for high-altitude reconnaissance of Germany and other Axis powers.
In North Africa, the 2902nd High Altitude Reconnaissance Regiment of the Imperial Air Force has arrived in Cairo, and in the United Kingdom, the 2904th High Altitude Reconnaissance Regiment of the Imperial Air Force has also arrived at Reading Airport. Comprehensive reconnaissance will be carried out across the entire Mediterranean coast, North Africa, and Western Europe. Ensuring that the Allies can grasp the dynamics of the main forces of the Axis powers at the first possible moment will also ensure that the Imperial Strategic Missile Forces can carry out effective and precise strikes against important military bases of the Axis powers.
The Imperial Air Force¡¯s organizational system and equipment research and development, as well as personnel training, tactical training and other aspects have emphasized large-scale air operations twenty years ago. This is completely different from the aristocratic and knightly air force system of Britain and Germany. The Soviet air force system basically followed the development of the empire. Even though the equipment level and tactical training were far inferior to those of the Imperial Air Force, during the Soviet-German War, the aviation forces were still able to maintain a certain degree of superiority over the Nazi Air Force in large-scale air battles. With the strength of the Imperial Air Force, it was indeed capable of ravaging the Nazi Air Force.
It can be said that in the past thirty years, the Reichswehr has gradually developed from an army power during the Second Sino-Japanese War and the Sino-Soviet War into the world's naval and air force hegemon. While Germany's blitzkrieg system is indeed powerful, its actual military The system is still at the stage of an army superpower and has not reached the current stage of joint air-ground operations of the Imperial Chinese Defense Force.
The Empire¡¯s air-land integration theory, the Army¡¯s balanced mechanization, and the Navy¡¯s maritime aviation system theory are the three major theoretical foundations of the Imperial Defense Force.
The Army's "balanced mechanization" is essentially a compromise between Suvorov's war theory and armored blitzkrieg. The fundamental reason is that the empire's land territory is too vast and the terrain structure is complex. There are not only extremely cold areas, but also tropical rain forests, In local terrain such as plateaus and mountains, it is difficult for pure armored forces to effectively cover and protect the land security of the entire empire. This eventually led to the balanced mechanization theory, which is still characterized by ensuring that the army is fast, fierce and mobile. On the basis of different terrain conditions, mechanization is developed.
The empire's air force and army are also difficult to separate, which gave rise to a new air-ground integration theory. Due to the poor accuracy of guided weapons, the empire's air-ground integration is still in its infancy. The current combat theory is a typical "air-ground joint" "Combat", the air force is in front, the army is behind, and air control is stronger. The navy's aviation theory is the same, which also emphasizes the priority of air control. Only with air control can we have land and sea power.
The Nazi German army still lacks good response methods to the empire's current "joint air-ground operations". In terms of actual command and tactical planning, the Nazi Air Force and the Army also lack practical and effective contact, just like in the Soviet-German War. The performance of the Luftwaffe was the same as in "The Number of Shots Down" as the main performance indicator.
The Air Force of the Chinese Empire has long been out of such a low-level stage. The Imperial Air Force must first wait for the strategic missile force to launch its force first, and then launch a swarm joint operation of fighters and attack aircraft to destroy the enemy's air force, airports and radar systems. Then comes the enemy's air defense system, and finally attack aircraft and bombers, which cooperate with the army to destroy the opponent's tanks and armored armies, eliminate the opponent's supplies, and destroy the opponent's transportation and communications.
After this, the armored group army and the light mechanized group army of the Imperial Army swarmed forward to encircle and annihilate the opponent.
No matter in any aspect, whether it is the level and quantity of fighter aircraft, the quality and quantity of air force pilots, the tactical system, deployment capabilities, and logistics maintenance level of the Imperial Air Force, the Imperial Air Force has an absolute advantage and is enough to ravage the Nazi Air Force.
In just one week, the empire originally stationed a large number of main air forces in the northeast, central north, central China, northwest, and Japan and Korea.A large number of troops were deployed to the Western Theater. After the empire took control of Kazakhstan, it built a large number of more than ten backup airports around the railway and highway systems left by the Soviet Union in Kazakhstan. At this time, they were basically used and belonged to the frontline headquarters of the Northwest Theater. The air force under his command surged from the original 22 air force divisions to 37 air force divisions, and the total number of aircraft reached 14,500, more than twice the number of the Nazi Air Force deployed on the Russian battlefield.
The Imperial Air Force has basically entered a period of major replacement of jet fighters at this time. 22 of the 37 air force divisions are fighter divisions. Exactly half of these 22 air force divisions have completed the replacement of jet fighters. The Empire's first Generations of jet bombers and reconnaissance aircraft also entered large-scale service during this year.
In comparison, the me262 jet fighter currently equipped by the Nazi Air Force is one generation behind the j6. There are obvious gaps in engine and aerodynamic design, and the number is also seriously insufficient.
During this period, we can see the gap in the scale and level of the aviation industry between China and Germany. If the scale and level of the army industries of both sides are basically equal, the gap between the air forces is indeed very large.
By 1940, the J6 fighter jets produced by the empire were not only more advanced, but also exceeded 10,000 in total, of which about 2,700 were leased to allies such as Britain, France, and Spain, while Nazi Germany produced only 3,300 ME262 jet fighters. The gap is indeed a bit outrageous.
There are still more gaps behind the numbers. For example, the first repair time for the engine of the German Me262 jet fighter is only 50 hours, while the first repair time for the P-series engine of the Imperial J6 series fighter can usually be maintained at more than 100 hours. Early production models before large-scale production expansion could even achieve a total life of 400 hours.
¡¡
When the largest air battle in world military history is brewing, a real tragedy is also brewing.
The conclusion that the Nazi Germans firmly believed that the military strength of China and Germany was roughly equivalent would turn into an unprecedented misjudgment after this air battle. The fuse of the war has been lit and is not under the control of both sides at all.
Seven days after the Empire officially declared war, the Imperial Strategic Missile Forces simultaneously launched a surprise attack on the German Air Force airfield at 7 a.m. from various bases in Novosibirsk Province and the Republic of Kazakhstan. Thousands of ballistic and medium-range cruise missiles fell into these Airport, at 7:15, the Imperial Air Force mobilized most of the air divisions in the theater to launch a secondary attack on the Luftwaffe.
The fierce and chaotic missiles and long-range rocket attacks regardless of cost caused heavy damage to the air bases of the Nazi German army at all stages before and after the war zone. Facing the second attack of the Imperial Air Force, only close to 1/3 of the fighter planes were able to take off effectively. Combat.
The Imperial Air Force did not adopt the air battles of the past, especially the harassment-style air battles of Britain and Germany, and it would not follow the European-style air force knight-like air duel tactics. Victory is the only pursuit, and seizing air supremacy at once is the empire. Air Force goals.
Relying on its strong speed, maneuverability, and numerical advantages, the Imperial Air Force adopted a large-scale 2-on-1 or even 3-on-1 approach to eliminate the Nazi Air Force's fighter planes. The Nazi German army was basically reduced to the point where it could only rely on ground anti-aircraft guns to fight.
Under the current circumstances, it is still unrealistic to use attack aircraft to directly attack the stationed tank units. The main attack targets of the attack aircraft at this time are the remaining fighters at the airport, as well as destroying other facilities and runways at the German air base, especially Using the J5 series fighter-bombers with sufficient range, the Imperial Air Force can effectively attack bridges, airports, ammunition and supply sites behind Germany, and even front-line headquarters.
While the Air Force was preparing for its third attack, the Northwest Allied Forces launched a full-scale offensive at 9:20 a.m., using Kazan as the main breakthrough point and erecting large-scale temporary bridges, allowing the 5th Group Army to prioritize breaking through the defense line. The air force and rocket artillery units launched an onslaught under the offensive. (To be continued) - Didn't finish reading?
