At this time, Emperor Showa had already moved to Kyoto and left Tokyo.

This guy was very smart, afraid of death, and did not live in the residence of the Emperor of Kyoto, for fear of being attacked by an air raid, but in a manor house in the suburbs where few people knew about the Emperor's outing.

It's all drab, it's simple, and luckily, there are enough people to serve it.

Emperor Showa was also quite relieved, waiting for the news of victory, and he also knew very well in his heart that victory or defeat would be in the battle of Shanhaiguan.

The fate of the empire, between the lines.

He prayed every day, thought every day.

This time.

Finally, some substantial news came along.

It was Hideki Tojo who called in person, "Emperor, I'm Hideki Tojo, and I have the latest news from Shanhaiguan that I want to report to you." ”

"You say."

Emperor Showa's voice was clearly a little expectant.

He needs this win too much, and he wants this win too much.

There are countless pressures at home and abroad, and if he can't win, then all the burdens will be pressed on him, and he can't imagine what will happen when he can't imagine.

Outcome.

Hideki Tojo's voice was visibly stammering, "Huh!?" He didn't speak.

This time.

Emperor Showa realized that it might be bad news, and immediately said: "If you have anything to say, hurry up and say, I am the emperor, the descendant of Amaterasu, and I will not be afraid of anything." ”

"Hey!"

Only then did Hideki Tojo say calmly: "I just got the news that Ueda Kaneyoshi's headquarters was attacked by the enemy, he himself was captured alive, and most of the generals were killed. ”

"Huh?!" The eyes of the eyes are dark.

Emperor Showa heard the news he least wanted to hear.

The last time Kaneyoshi Ueda's headquarters was attacked by an air raid, he didn't tell anyone, and he always reported good news and not bad news, because he was already the last hope.

He himself knows it.

His family returned to the emperor, and his parents were loved by all the people, and he could not be defeated, so he kept it a secret.

Therefore, the news that Emperor Showa received was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue, and the whole person was stunned for a moment, his eyes widened in disbelief, and he almost spurted out a mouthful of blood.

That's right, that's what it feels like.

Because this means that the war has been defeated, this means that it has been completely defeated, and the hand holding the phone is weak, "Let's go!" "Fell to the ground.

Hideki Tojo heard it clearly, and immediately shouted, "Emperor, Emperor, are you okay, things haven't reached the point of being out of control, there is still room for redemption, don't be angry, your body is important." ”

But these words could not reach the ears of Emperor Showa, he was just recalling a sentence, defeated, defeated, I defeated.

The centuries-old foundations of the Great Japanese Empire were destroyed, and the plan to destroy China failed.

I'm a sinner, I'm a sinner in the Japanese Empire.

The mad demon's eyes instantly reddened, and his throat was astringent and he wanted to vomit, yes, even "vomit!" With a physiological reaction, he spit out.

At this time, some people around the emperor realized that there was a problem and immediately came over to help, "Emperor, what's wrong with you." ”

"Emperor, did you eat something wrong?"

What was vomited was not blood, but just some vomit and stomach acid, which was completely over-frightened, and completely a contrast caused by a large psychological gap.

Emperor Showa's head "Buzz!" "Buzz!" I made a sound, but I didn't say a word, but fortunately, my body was weak, and I was helped by someone, and there was a rumor in my ears, "The emperor has fainted, go and call a doctor." ”

"The Emperor fainted."

That's how the voice went.

Emperor Showa actually knew everything, in fact, he knew everything, in fact, he understood very well, that he was unwilling to accept all this, that is, he was unwilling to face all this.

I put it on when I got in the way.

He even kept his eyes open, watching the doctor check his body there, moving his body there, and his ears kept ringing, "Emperor! "The Emperor!" The shouts were not moved.

He was utterly unwilling to accept it all.

Then.

The subordinate also said, "The emperor just made a phone call, and on the other end of the phone is Prime Minister Hideki Tojo, and now he is asking the emperor about the situation here, please answer immediately." ”

The doctor dared to say more, and immediately said: "The emperor is too excited, which causes stomach acid to rise, and some brain oxygen supply is caused by the lack of oxygen supply, which is not life-threatening, but he needs to recuperate, so you can answer the prime minister like this." ”

"Yes!"

I did it.

The other side.

After Hideki Tojo found out, how dare he wait, although he felt that there was nothing wrong, but as a minister, if he didn't show up at the scene at this time, it would be a big rebellion.

Immediately, he found a car and took several important ministers of the army to the resting place of the Emperor of Kyoto.

Tojo Hideki looked blank, wiped the sweat on his forehead, the whole person was thinner and weaker than before, his face was yellow, and his cheeks were sunken, it can be seen that this time.

He had a hard time.

The same is true of the other war ministers, looking at Hideki Tojo, they actually did not agree to continue the fight from the beginning, and they have already jointly signed a plan for peace talks with the emperor.

Who would have thought that the emperor would still want to fight.

As a result, the losses were beyond imagination.

The city of Tokyo was burned, the life and death of millions of Kwantung troops were uncertain, and hundreds of thousands of good men died on the spot.

One by one, they bowed their heads and were silent.

Only some of the young Zhuang faction still said with their chests open, "Prime Minister, our army still has a million troops near Shanhaiguan, and if we continue to fight, it may not be a failure, I will see the emperor in a while, and I will show the emperor my determination to die in battle, and I will continue to fight." ”

"Yes, fight to the last person before you can declare defeat."

There are not a few such people.

There are a lot of them in the War Department.

Hideki Tojo was originally their backbone, but at this time, Hideki Tojo's thoughts have changed, and they all realize that there is no way to fight, and if they are fighting, they will let the men of the empire die.

Let the empire have tens of thousands more widows, and let the empire's mothers wash their faces with tears all day long.

He sighed and said: "Now Shanhaiguan is a no-fly zone, and the plane can't fly through it at all, I've tried countless times, but it doesn't work, and there is no commander there, how can I fight?" Commanded remotely from Tokyo, didn't that send those people to death? ”

"Yes, millions of imperial boys, if they die like this, how many mothers will cry blindly, how many mothers will become single, and how many girls will die for it."

War criminals can't bear to watch anymore.

At this time, the Shaozhuang faction still said fiercely: "I don't believe it, the million-strong army can't defeat those branches, I'll go, prepare a plane for me, I'll go over, even if I am killed, I don't want to accept surrender." ”

"Yes, take me one."

One by one, they played with their lives.

Hideki Tojo knew that this time, it was up to the emperor, and if the emperor insisted on still fighting, and he still wanted to fight, then he would be helpless.

He said no more.

The car slowly entered the emperor's residence.

By the time I saw the emperor lying on the couch, it was already dark.

Emperor Showa has also recovered, and when he saw Hideki Tojo, he was a little disgraced, because he was unwilling to admit defeat to make him today.

At this moment, it seems that there is nothing to say.

But a few officers of the Young Zhuang faction immediately said: "Emperor, there are still millions of troops in Shanhaiguan, and there are still refined equipment, so you can fight and continue to fight." ”

"I'm willing to go and replace Kaneyoshi Ueda, he died alone, and he doesn't mean anything."

"I'd rather be broken than broken, I'm willing to die."

"Plop!" Fall to your knees.

"Bang!" "Bang!" Kowtow.

"Huh?!"

Emperor Showa for a moment, his eyes lit up, his eyes had a look, and he immediately sat up and said: "Yes, Ueda Kaneyoshimoto is a second-rate general, my imperial generals are like clouds, and there are still people who can succeed if one dies, the Kwantung Army's million-strong army is the elite of the empire, how can it fail like this, it is absolutely not allowed, we can continue to fight." ”

The way you gnash your teeth.

I didn't even think it was a million families.

"Hey!"

Hideki Tojo couldn't help but sigh in his heart, because he already knew the result, but he had no choice but to be silent there and reluctantly accept it.
