Chapter 1074 Japanese Surrender Ceremony (I)

Only one entourage was allowed on the invitation, and Wang Liang couldn't help but bring the harrier alone, because Wei Da was so brave for this matter that he shouted that the boss was eccentric.

The reason why he chose Harrier is because Wang Liang feels that this guy is an old man, experienced, and has a strong ability to adapt when he goes out, and can help him share some problems.

After all, this time I was going to Tokyo Bay, the territory of the Japanese, although history records that the signing ceremony of the surrender went very smoothly, but Wang Liang had to be careful, this is a biting dog, and Wang Liang has a deep understanding of his wolf ambitions.

Although the Japanese emperor announced defeat and surrender, there were still many devils who chose to resist, and the right-wingers would never be willing to be defeated.

At the end of the war, the United States had exercised separate control and occupation of Japan, the defeated country, and the 460,000 American troops led by MacArthur were stationed in Japan one after another, controlling major cities and strategic points, with the aim of preventing any further chaos.

Wang Liang and Harrier arrived at Tokyo Bay on the border with Tokyo in Japan's Kanto region on the night of August 31, where the Missouri was anchored.

Tokyo Bay, the estuary of the Pacific Ocean in the east-central part of the Japanese island of Honshu. It is an important golden island with Tokyo, Yokohama, and Kawasaki along the northwest coast of Tokyo Bay, Yokosuka City to the west, Chiba City to the east, and the Miura and Boso Peninsula to the south.

The presence of US warships here could no longer provoke the Japanese militarists, because just two days ago, the first batch of US troops landed on the Japanese mainland, both by air and by sea.

"Wang, I have finally waited for you, General MacArthur has asked me to personally take charge of your itinerary, fortunately, you have arrived in time, there will be a rehearsal of the signing ceremony on the morning of the first day on the Missouri, you can go and see it at that time, it is very good." The person in charge of receiving Wang Liang was a major officer of the US Army, who looked very young.

"The general is really flattered to know that I am such a small person, and he will convey his gratitude on my behalf." Wang Liang smiled politely, it was a matter of pride to be remembered by a five-star general.

"King, for the sake of safety, please give me the guns you and your friends have with you for safekeeping, and I will return them as they are when I leave." The major said.

"Of course, there is no problem, you are the landlords, everything is up to your arrangement." Wang Liang smiled, now and in the future, Japan is a lackey of the United States, and the guest is as he pleases, of course, he has to listen to the master.

The major inspected Wang Liang and Harrier's pistols separately and made a record, and at the same time did not forget to say: "Don't worry, this place is absolutely safe, and there will be no problems." ”

"I hope so." Wang Liang shrugged, Americans often go wrong.

Wang Liang and Harrier did not participate in the rehearsal of No. 1, because there was no practical significance, because the bigwigs would not be there, at most dozens of sailors on the ship went through the motions.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Wang Liang and Harrier walked around the streets of Tokyo with their cameras, and the streets where American GIs were rampant had a special charm, and before they knew it, the status of the Japanese plummeted, whether they accepted it or not, this is a fact.

On September 2, the historic day finally arrived, and the fly in the ointment was that the sky was gloomy, which did not quite match the joyful mood of the people.

Perhaps this best reflects the gloomy mood of the Japanese people at this moment.

At 10 p.m., General Nimitz and his entourage arrived at the "Missouri" in a special boat from the "South Dakota." The "Admiral's March" sounded over the loudspeaker, the whistle of the whole ship sounded loudly, Nimitz's five-star admiral's flag was raised on the mast, and the four-star Admiral Halsey came forward to warmly welcome him as the Third Fleet.

At 8:30 a.m., the music was loud, and the delegation of the Central Powers arrived at the "Missouri" on the destroyer "Nicholas", the dark gray and yellow military uniforms were the Chinese representatives, the pure white short sleeves, shorts, and long stockings were the British representatives, the dark brown-green, dark blue and red stripes were the Soviet representatives, and the light yellow military uniforms were the French representatives. Chinese, British, American, Dutch, French, and Russian were bustling with activity, and the deck suddenly became a lively diplomatic venue, and reporters were very busy.

What is strange is that all the US officers and men on the USS Missouri, from five-star generals to ordinary sailors, although their military uniforms are new, they are all military casual clothes with standard shirts, no ties and no medals, and they are not regular or formal dresses for attending official occasions.

Wang Liang and Harrier did the same thing, changing the clothes they borrowed from their fellow countrymen, and when they looked closely, there were still a few big holes on them, which were even more absolute and contemptuous than the Americans.

At nine o'clock, the band played the American national anthem "The Star-Spangled Banner Never Falls", MacArthur and Nimitz were in front of each other, in fact, the relationship between the two had been very stiff a long time ago, but on this occasion they were calm, Halsey stepped out of the general's rest cabin behind, the Allied delegation and the army and navy generals who watched the ceremony were lined up in the designated positions, and after walking on the deck, Nimitz stood to the right of General Xu Yongchang, the representative of China, in the position of the first person in the Allied delegation, and Halsey stood in the first place of the admirals. The sailors on board seized the vantage point where they could see the venue, and even the barrels of the large-caliber naval guns were crowded with beaming sailors.

Although Wang Liang and Harrier were at the back of the allied delegations, they could also see the whole process of the ceremony clearly.

"Boss, it's the first time I've seen this kind of occasion, it's grand enough, so many foreigners gather together just to see little Japan make a fool of themselves, cool, really cool!" Harrier is excited, he has been fighting Little Japan for so many years, and he has finally convinced the other party.

"yes, I've finally been waiting for this day." Wang Liang has mixed feelings, in the blink of an eye, he has been in this time and space for eight years, thinking about the past like the past, it seems to have happened yesterday.

The strange thing is that Wang Liang can clearly remember what happened every day when he crossed over, and he remembers it vividly.

Shigemitsu Aoi, Umezu Mijiro and others saluted MacArthur, but MacArthur did not give any face and did not reply, causing the guests to cover their mouths and snicker.

Chongguang and Umezu are both old acquaintances of the Chinese, and one of Chongguang's legs was blown off by a bomb dropped by the North Korean righteous Yin Bong-gil in Hongkou Park in Shanghai in May 1932, and there is still an old site to be found in Hongkou Park; Umezu served as the commander of the Tianjin garrison and the famous Japanese signatory of the Hemei Agreement. The vicissitudes of life, how arrogant it used to be, but now it is here to bow down!
