How did the giant awaken

"China is a sleeping lion. Once awakened, the world will be shaken." Has Napoleon ever said this? It remains to be verified.

Is China a sleeping lion? Has the world shaken after waking up? Now, it seems that the world has indeed heard the voice of China.

More than 70 years ago, another lion also woke up from a deep sleep

The difference is that it is "awakened", after waking up

The whole world has changed

This is the United States, this is Pearl Harbor, this is the "tiger"

Tiger Tiger Tiger is the transliteration of Tora Tora Tora, and the Japanese army agreed that once the attack on Pearl Harbor is successful, the transliteration of Baojie Telegram is Tora Tora Tora.

The film revolves around Japan and the United States military and political lines

On the Japanese side, military attaches are murderous and determined to win; civilians only promise to look forward to the future; the sensible soldiers represented by Yamamoto are lucky and uneasy. The overall operation of the machine is to check each other, but militarism has the absolute upper hand

In the United States, the Pearl Harbor Pacific Fleet has reliable information, but the upper fleet inexplicably despise it; Washington and the military vaguely reveal the conspiracy theories of "release the Japanese", but there are a lot of systematic bureaucracy. Operational errors and chaos directed the incident to the bureaucracy of the US administration at the time. Various speechless and even absurd mistakes made people think that the bureaucracy was really as dark as the crows in the world, and so was the case in democratic countries.

Of course, bureaucracy itself is an inevitable side effect of the bureaucratic civil service system. Conciseness and efficiency are inherently contradictory with hierarchical standards.

The coolest realistic scene is, of course, after a long period of political games and military preparations, dozens of minutes of real air strike performance.

The movies in the 70s are honest, there are no computer special effects, only models

But there is no doubt that battleships and aircraft carriers chopped the waves, the zero-type aircraft, and the army aviation flipped and took off.

This is the true portrayal of more than 70 years ago

At the end of the film, Yamamoto lamented the awakening of the sleeping giant, announcing a strategic funeral for Huhuhu's tactical victory.
