The United States, which was angrily denounced by the Soviet Union as a false neutrality, because although the American army did not directly participate in the war, it sent staff officers and command personnel to provide tanks and warplanes for the Japanese army. ~~~ The Japanese army is actually fighting with American weapons and equipment.
China, which is restructuring the central government, has not yet announced its foreign policy.
With the exception of skirmishes, the border has remained largely neutral.
But it was this neutrality that drove Japan, the United States and the Soviet Union crazy.
China has taken almost all of the strategic points from the Tien Shan Mountains to the Sayan Mountains to the Khing'an Mountains to the Trans-Khing'an Mountains, and has drawn the entire Far East into a slender strip of land where the Soviet Union and Japan at all times need long supply lines to feed their troops and civilians.
It is very difficult for the army alone, and to stabilize the front, the army alone cannot accomplish this task, and the cooperation of the common people is required.
But the Far East and Siberia are cold, sparsely populated.
The Lena River, the Soviets could not hold it, because the Japanese population here reached nearly 40 million people.
However, when it entered the rivers and lakes of the Central Siberian Plateau, Japan encountered the same problem.
War is fought with logistics.
Zhukov, having broken through, made good use of this feature. dragged the Japanese army alive on the wasteland.
However, the Soviets had to turn to China again, they had enough weapons and equipment, but lacked food and cold supplies.
The war has been fought until now, and Stalin also knows that the Far Eastern battlefield is not as terrible as imagined.
It was Europe that really mattered, and the border between the USSR and Finland was only a few dozen kilometers from Leningrad.
The Soviet Union negotiated with Finland to unite against Germany and hoped that Finland would exchange the territory outside Leningrad for the northern territories of the Soviet Union. to achieve the goal of protecting Leningrad, but without substantial results.
After the signing of the non-aggression pact between the Soviet Union and Germany, Finland was required to set its borders back 25 kilometers from Leningrad.
And leased the Hanko Peninsula for 30 years to build a naval base, in exchange for which the USSR ceded twice as much Karelian territory to Finland.
However, the Hanko Peninsula was lost not only as a barrier for the defense of the USSR against Germany, but also as a natural barrier for Finland to defend against the USSR.
No amount of land is useless.
This is just as important to China as the Sayan Mountains.
Finland is unlikely to give up in any case.
The same was true of the Soviet Union, so Stalin endured the pain of war on the eastern and western fronts and launched the war against Finland.
Europe was the population of the Soviet Union, the core of industry and agriculture.
Lost the Lena River.
The Soviet Union also had the Yenisei and Ob rivers.
If you want to ask the real psychological bottom line of the USSR, it should be the Urals.
In the East, only if the Ural Mountains were threatened, the USSR would fight to the death.
But can Japan and the United States threaten the Urals?
Stalin was very worried at first.
But the battle really opened.
Stalin, on the contrary, was relieved.
It has already been proven that it was Germany and China that were a threat to the USSR.
Japan does not yet have this strength.
Not even with the support of the United States.
The Soviet army became orderly after the initial panic, and Zhukov showed his outstanding talent, no longer resisting, but taking advantage of the Soviet military equipment, holding the Transbaikal railway and concentrating large corps for assault.
Abandoned Central and Siberia, set out from the Tunguska plateau.
Kill the logistics base of the Japanese army on the Lena River.
The battlefield was very chaotic, but in general as long as the Soviet transport lines were not threatened.
To save the defeat, the Soviet army is a matter of course.
On the contrary, the Japanese occupation of the Far East was too short to build so many roads.
Especially the railways.
The U.S.
-backed equipment reached Siberia through long transport lines and consumed enormously.
The most important thing is that even if the Japanese army is more experienced in resisting the cold, during the war, all kinds of materials were first supplied to the military, and the Japanese had already frozen to death and starved to death.
This is inevitably a migration of people to China, where conditions are better.

It was not only the Japanese who ran to China, but also the Yakuts, the Russians.
The entire Far East is quietly losing blood.
At this time, He Yingqin led the Fourth Army to also begin to move north.
The southern coast, handed over to the Navy.
There are still 100 million people left on the southern coast, about half of whom are spreading to the interior, which solves the problem of the proportion of Han nationality decreasing, and at the same time the coastal industries are also being adjusted.
Hundreds of thousands of ships withdrew from the mainland and headed for Malaysia, that is, the South Seas.
Some industries, processing industries, handicrafts are also withdrawing.
Those who did not want to go also had orders from the United States and France, Britain and the Netherlands.
The Wuhan government's industrial policy is decidedly different.
Almost all industries are geared towards domestic demand.
Even processing plants that export to foreign countries will no longer increase production.
This made Rockefeller Jr. happy at the same time, but also worried.
Because they are losing touch with China.
China is not the only country that has lost contact.
Germany, one of the most important scientists is missing.
That's Heisenberg.
Heisenberg disappeared with Bohr while he was meeting him.
Later, it was discovered that the families of the two scientists had also disappeared into thin air.
Heisenberg's meeting with Bohr was originally for the question of how Britain and Germany could avoid war.
Now suddenly gone.
Both Germany and Britain were suspicious of each other.
Soon, however, Hungary also discovered the famous scientist Leo.
Mr. and Mrs.
Szilard and James who came to visit?
The Chadwicks were also gone.
In the United States, Oppenheimer, director of the heavily protected atomic bomb program, and a group of scientists have disappeared.
All the research materials of these scientists were also lost.
And almost all of them are related to nuclear research.
At the same time, the Radiological Laboratory of the Royal Institute of Chemistry Wilhelmsman in Germany published a number of very important articles on nuclear research.
Therefore, Britain, France and the United States believe that Germany has hijacked these scientists, because although Germany has lost Heisenberg, the overall nuclear research has not been damaged.
This made the Anglo-American-French abandon the dispute, they already knew how terrible the atomic bomb was, and if Germany developed it first, it would mean defeat in the war.
On December 1, 1939, the Soviet Union and Japan, both sides suffered heavy losses, and one of the important reasons for the cease-fire negotiations in the small town of Maqia was that the United States, which was in charge of mediation, informed the Soviet Union of the disappearance of nuclear scientists and the progress of German nuclear research.
It is believed that the biggest threat at the moment is Germany.
The Far Eastern question will be left until the European question is resolved.
The United States also hinted that there is another country in the world that is terrifying, that is, China, which is quietly on the border.
China is terrible because it has completed unification, is mysterious, and may have the only ability to launch satellites.
The war between the Soviets and Japan lasted for more than two months, with each of them retreating 25 kilometers and demarcating a demilitarized zone.
Although Japan acquired half of Central Siberia and most of the Lena River valley, it died in war, froze and starved to death, and lost more than a million people.
It is the party that loses the most.
However, it is winter, and it is difficult to recover the economy.
Japan felt that the United States was unreliable, and the hardliners believed that it was the United States that betrayed Japan's interests at this time and reaped great benefits in Japan.
Japan's treasury is almost empty, and the main destination is the United States.
And owed a huge debt to the United States.
Hardliners feel that the United States has little to offer other than to take advantage of itself.
He began to advocate the abolition of the Japan-US Mutual Defense Treaty and the restoration of Japan's normal national identity.

However, Emperor Hirohito believed that what Japan needed most at this time was to recuperate under the protection of a great power.
It is not advisable to go back to war.
Japan now has a territory that is not weaker than other countries, and it has abundant resources, as long as it buries its head in hard work for a few years.
Japan will not be afraid of any country.
In order to achieve this goal, Emperor Hirohito decided to restore friendly relations with China.
Because Japan is sandwiched between the three great powers, it must at least stabilize relations between China and the United States before it has the strength to ensure its undefeated.
Soviet-Japanese relations were only a temporary truce.
The territory of Japan is almost entirely the territory of the Soviet Union, so it is a never-ending situation.
Prince Chongren came to China again, along with Rockefeller Jr.
Rockefeller gave a report on nuclear weapons.
Mao Shishan, Wu Hao, Pu Jie, and Chiang Ching-kuo attended the talks.
Mao Shishan said that China has always maintained neutrality, but it cannot give up on the Far East.
Pu Jie showed the record of the negotiations at the Treaty of Nebuchu, believing that China's territory should be bounded from the Lena River to the Arctic Ocean, and that China would not give up its territory because Russia seized China's territory in those years.
Mao Shishan said that the second option is to use the North China Mountains in the Outer Khingan Mountains to the northeastern part of the Asian continent to submerge into the sea, that is, the current Kolyma Mountains and Chukotka Mountains as the boundary mountains.
It is clear that China does not want to have a Japan-US alliance and wants to separate Japan from the United States.
The negotiations, of course, will not be successful.
Rockefeller said he would return to China for consultations.
But Chongren stayed.
Chongren said that if Japan left the island, it would no longer be Japan, and hoped that China would return the four Japanese islands.
Mao Shishan said: "That is impossible, now Japan's territory is all China's territory, and even if there is a truce, it will be temporary."
The only way is for Japan to be annexed to China.
Even now, Japanese people can live freely in all parts of Chinese mainland, and it doesn't affect anything. ” Chongren was silent.
