In 1939, Japan formulated two combat orientations, each with two battle plans of "going south" and "going south". At first, Japan valued the rich war resources of the former Soviet Union and prepared to invade and occupy West Siberia.
From May to September 1939, according to the plan, Japan launched a large-scale side-knocking and side attack strategic attack on the Soviet-Mongolian invading army located in the Nomenhan area, 200 kilometers south of hailar on the Sino-Mongolian border.
Using hundreds of thousands of troops and excellent military technology, they engaged in a fierce battle of 4 and a half months in the dilapidated, desert-winding wilderness. Due to the late start of national defense concepts and strategies, Japan suffered its worst defeat since the Russo-Japanese War.
After the defeat of the "southward" war, the ideal of attacking the former Soviet Union to conquer Western Siberia was in vain, so it turned around and planned a "southward advance" to seize greater war resources (crude oil) and so on, so as to facilitate the future occupation of global reserves and follow-up resources.
There were American, Spanish, and American colonies at the time, which made Japan's plan to move south more difficult. In addition, because of the current policy in the Asia-Pacific region, which is completely opposed between Japan and the United States, Japan and the United States are bound to have a rights and interests impact in the Asia-Pacific region.
In the spring and summer of 1940, the southward expansion theory experienced two rises in Japan. From the first rise of the southward expansion theory in the spring and summer of 1940 to the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor in late 1941, which caused the outbreak of the Pacific War, a period of one and a half years.
The key reason why Japan has repeatedly delayed its fear of declaring war on the United States and revoking or delaying the scheduled time for its southward advance several times is that the resistance of the Chinese people has disrupted the invasion and deployment of Japanese devils, driving the Japanese fascists to postpone the southward advance several times. Coupled with the shortage of crude oil, he is willing to take a risk and destroy Pearl Harbor in the United States.
During the Second World War, the indomitable Japanese fascists finally collapsed after dropping two nuclear bombs on the United States and signed a surrender instrument.
The U.S. participation in World War II facilitated the course of World War II, and the breakthrough was the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. After pearl harbor, the German Nazi leader, the German Nazis, scolded Japan for being ignorant and not understanding such personal behavior. But Japan knows how to fight but why the United States also wanted to attack Pearl Harbor, there are several reasons.
The first is that Japan's resources in the middle and late period of World War II are very scarce, to understand that although Japan's war was fierce, it was only an island country after all, and the vast majority of resources were imported, and the key to this import region was in Southeast Asia. First attacked Southeast Asia; Thailand, which belonged to the United States, was forced to declare war on Japan.
The second is that the outbreak of war between Japan and the United States is sooner or later, and Japan only markets the concept to gain dominance and manipulate the Chinese Pacific. Because the US "Lend-Lease Act" clearly stated that it is strictly forbidden to send materials to Japan and Germany, the contradictions between Japan and the United States have deepened, and Japan's resources are insufficient, and the attack on the United States is only more vicious and less auspicious.
At that time, many countries around the world could not understand this reason, and after World War II, a great man said the answer: "Japan's sneak attack on the United States is only to achieve a purpose of war to feed the war, temporarily obtaining control of the sea in the Pacific Ocean of China, and this kind of personal behavior is exactly the same as the characteristics of France's sneak attack on the former Soviet Union." “
There are two names for the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, one is that the vicious attack on Pearl Harbor is a real sneak attack. The second is the trickery of the Americans, which is deliberately to make the sneak attack a success.
The former is an affirmation of historical periods, while the latter is widely spread among defense enthusiasts, especially some Japanese who have always insisted that Pearl Harbor was a complete hoax.
Why is it called this? Although the sneak attack seemed to be a success, some unprovoked accidents prevented the Japanese from achieving their development strategy.
