In recent years, some "anti-Japanese dramas" have been criticized by people, because not only have all kinds of strange weapons appeared, but also they can kill ghosts eight hundred miles away with one shot, grenades to blow up airplanes, and other content, insulting the intelligence of the audience. And the weakening of these films for the enemy is also a big problem. To deny the strength of the enemy is to despise the sacrifices of those martyrs.
The superiority of the Japanese army
Looking at the three fascist countries of World War II, Japan was the worst equipped. Nazi Germany had a lot of equipment that could be called "black technology", the Italians could not fight but also had many new inventions, while Japan's equipment was only stronger than that of many countries that had been invaded in Asia, and the gap with the equipment of the US army had been fully demonstrated in the Pacific War.
So, why can the iron hooves of the Japanese army wreak havoc on the land of China? In addition to China's own poverty and weakness at that time, another important reason was the discipline and tactics of the Japanese army.
Compared with Germany, the Soviet Union and other countries, Japan is not good at using a large number of mechanized weapons and large legion warfare, and there are not so many tanks, artillery, they are relatively more suitable for small units to fight, and they cooperate with each other skillfully, at that time, there were many counties on the mainland that even only needed a small group of Japanese troops to defend. Then when the Chinese army encounters the Japanese army, it will certainly not be able to charge indiscriminately, and it must pay attention to tactical cooperation.
Which part of the Japanese army will be attacked first?
The ancient poem has clouds: "Shoot the man first, shoot the horse, and catch the thief first." "If we kill the enemy's key figures at the beginning of the battle, then victory in the battle is just around the corner. Who was the first person in the Japanese army who needed to be solved by the Chinese army, the machine gunner responsible for providing fire suppression, or the Japanese officer with the command knife? In fact, it is not, this person should be a person with a gun and a flag in his hand. Flag bearers not only serve as inspiration for their teammates on the battlefield, they are also communicators of combat orders.
On the battlefield, the artillery fire is continuous, and it is certainly unrealistic to directly use shouting to convey command orders, and it is even more inefficient to let people directly pass on words, so the army invented a set of "flag languages" to convey information through the direction and frequency of flag waving. Therefore, if we lose this flag bearer, then the commander's orders cannot be conveyed, and the army will become a mess, which is why we want to start playing the flag bearer in the first place.
The victory of the Chinese army in the War of Resistance Against Japan was bought by countless sacrifices, and the Japanese army was by no means an incompetent aggressor. Those film and television works that have diluted and weakened the face of the Japanese invaders are actually very disrespectful to history and to those martyrs who sacrificed. If the aggressors were really so weak, would we still have a bitter fourteen-year war of resistance?
