Chapter 051 Treaty with Japan

The negotiations continued the next morning, and Kakuzaburo Tanaka also communicated with the Japanese base camp yesterday, and Wang Hanzhang also made up his mind.

This time, Wang Hanzhang spoke first: "How about it, has your government thought about it?" "I came to Wang Hanzhang to talk about my own considerations, but in the end, I still planned to listen to the Japanese first.

Kakuzaburo Tanaka said: "Our government has made the final concession, the Malay Peninsula belongs to your country, and everyone will rule by dividing the sea, but North Korea must be controlled by our country, and Taiwan is the same, and you don't need to pay money, if His Majesty the Emperor agrees, we can sign a peace agreement tomorrow." ”

Wang Hanzhang said: "I can make concessions on the North Korean issue and leave the DPRK to your country, and I have no opinion on the handling of the Malay Peninsula, but Taiwan has always been under the direct jurisdiction of China, and we cannot give it up, not to mention that there are still tens of millions of compatriots on the road, and the Chinese people will not give up on them." ”

Kakuzaburo Tanaka said: "We will not give up Taiwan no matter what. ”

Wang Hanzhang said: "Your refusal to return Taiwan to us is out of security considerations, but it is the same for us, Taiwan is in your hands, then our road in and out of the Pacific Ocean may be interrupted by your country at any time." And you think that Taiwan is in our hands, and you are worried that we will cut off the connection between your mainland and the Philippines and other places at any time. I don't think this war can be fought for ten years, and at that time you will not worry that we will cut off your ties with Southeast Asia and the Pacific islands in Taiwan, and we can also get back what belongs to us, if you agree, then we will sign a peace agreement and laugh at it from now on. ”

"This ......," Kakuzaburo Tanaka pondered.

Wang Hanzhang continued: "Although the strength of Japan's current army has not suffered much loss, but under our joint attack with Britain and the United States, Japan's defeat is undoubted, and although we can control the Malay Peninsula and even most of Indonesia, and can also recover Taiwan, the Ryukyu Islands, and Korea, Japan can be included in the great embrace of the Chinese nation, but we are likely to lose the opportunity to recover the territory occupied by Soviet Russia, so I am willing to talk to you, if you accept the above opinions, Then tomorrow we will sign the agreement, if you can't accept it, you can go back, we have no way back, then we have to vent our anger on the Japanese that we can't recover the territory south of the Outer Khing'an Mountains and Outer Mongolia. ”

Kakuzaburo Tanaka glanced at Wang Hanzhang, then thought for a while and said, "In this way, we will see you at three o'clock in the afternoon and give you an answer when the time comes." ”

Wang Hanzhang said: "Yes." Then Kakuzaburo Tanaka left with his men.

Kakuzaburo Tanaka soon reported the negotiations to Tokyo, Japan, and Emperor Hirohito quickly summoned a group of military and political dignitaries who relied on him.

After everyone listened to Tanaka Kakuzaburo's telegram statement, Hirohito said: "Now that the empire and the people of China have differences only on the Taiwan issue, do you think we can agree to Wang Hanzhang's ten-year covenant?" ”

As the planner of the plan, Yamamoto Fifty-six said: "Your Majesty, no matter what the outcome of the battlefield war is, it is impossible to fight for ten years, and it has indeed been won. If the war is lost, Taiwan will not be able to hold it. If it's a draw, it's almost as good as winning. If we win or draw, then we will move the Japanese people to Australia, the Philippines, Indonesia, and other places to build a strong navy, and no one will be able to threaten the Japanese Empire. So I think we can agree to the request of the Chinese people, and the pledge of Taiwan is now in our hands. ”

Nanjiro on the side also said: "Your Majesty, I support Yamamoto-kun, judging from the telegram sent by Tanaka-kun, Wang Hanzhang inadvertently mentioned that he wanted to send troops to attack Soviet Russia to seize the territory ceded by Russia, isn't this exactly what we expected at the beginning, as long as there is a war between China and the powerful Soviet Russia, then we can wait and see what happens, and sit on the benefits of the fisherman." ”

"What about the others?" After a while, seeing that the others had no objections, Hirohito said: "Okay, immediately reply to Tanaka Qing and agree to the request of King Hanzhang of China, Zhuqing, the time has come for the empire to change its fate again, everyone must work hard, be cautious, and be careful, if you go wrong, the empire will be ruined, and then the empire may not even have a chance to rise." ”

The crowd below shouted in unison: "Hai! ”

Kakuzaburo Tanaka received a telegram from the Japanese base camp at one o'clock, and with the permission of the base camp, he immediately made an appointment with Wang Hanzhang and told Wang Hanzhang that the Japanese government had agreed.

The two sides soon worked together to draw up the terms of the treaty, and the main content was finalized, and the two sides did not dwell on the details, but many details were still discussed for a long time, and the treaty was not finalized until the next day.

Because the Huameng was now divided into two countries, Japan had to sign with both countries at the same time, so there was the "Qin-Japan Chongqing Treaty" and the "Sino-Japanese Chongqing Treaty".

The main contents of the "Qin-Japan Treaty of Chongqing" are: 1. Japan handed over the Malay Peninsula to Qin; 2. Japan handed over the Andaman Islands to Qin; 3. Japan recognizes the Southeast Peninsula, including the Malay Peninsula and adjacent islands, as the legitimate territory of the Qin State, and the Japanese side is not allowed to peep into it; 4. Qin recognized the Philippines and the Indonesian islands as Japan's legitimate territory, and Qin was not allowed to peep into it; 5 Qin recognized Japan's rights and interests in India, and Qin was not allowed to intervene in India's affairs under any pretext, but Japan was also not allowed to support or instigate India's invasion of Qin, otherwise Qin would fight back with all its might; 6. From the date of the signing of the treaty, the Japanese within the territory of the Qin State must sell their property and leave the Qin State within three months, otherwise the Qin State will confiscate all their property and expel them from the country; 7 The Chinese in the Philippines and Indonesia shall sell their property and leave the place within three months from the date of the signing of the treaty, otherwise Japan will have to confiscate all their property and expel them from the country.

The main contents of the Sino-Japanese Treaty of Chongqing are: 1. China and Japan abolish all unequal treaties; 2. Japan must withdraw all personnel in China within three months from the date of the signing of the treaty, and this article shall not apply to the islands of Taiwan and its dependencies; 3. Taiwan's extremely affiliated islands, including the Penghu Islands and the South Ryukyu Islands, shall be temporarily under the jurisdiction of Japan for a period of 10 years, after which all will be returned to China; 4. China recognizes Korea and the Ryukyus as Japan's inherent territory and is not allowed to peep into; 5. China shall not demand cultural relics and any war reparations from Japan.

China and Japan did not disclose the contents of the treaty for their own reasons, so the treaty changed history completely than the history calls it a secret treaty.

In addition, the speed with which the two sides finalized the treaty was embarrassing, and the Paris Peace Conference lasted for several years, which made everyone dissatisfied and became the cause of World War II.

The Huameng League made concessions in many places because Wang Hanzhang wanted to recover Outer Mongolia and Jiangdong Shiliutun, and Japan was eager to draw troops for the Pacific theater, so it didn't care much about those details, and if it was talked about for two or three years, even if Wang Hanzhang was willing, Japan would not be able to bear it in the Pacific.

In addition, both sides feel that the treaty is used to tear up, as long as there is a chance, Wang Hanzhang will not let go of Japan, a wolf that cannot be fed, and as long as Japan has the opportunity, it will also stretch out his evil claws to Huaxia again.

The Japanese were in a hurry to sign the contract, which can be seen from the blank contract with their Hirohito seal, otherwise they would have to take it to Japan to seal after the treaty was signed, but the seal had been changed in advance, as long as the text was typed, it was very convenient.

When the Chinese delegates saw that the peace treaty had been signed in this way, and that all of China's original territory had been taken back, they felt like they were dreaming, and they felt that they had witnessed the most glorious day in China's modern history, on which China had regained the territory and sovereignty it had lost since the First Sino-Japanese War, and they had ignored the indemnities and cultural relics.

When Wang Hanzhang began to negotiate, they wanted to immediately agree to the conditions of Japan's dismissal, but they couldn't intervene, Wang Hanzhang had full authority to decide everything, and they were terrified every time they saw Wang Hanzhang want this and that, for fear that Wang Hanzhang would make the Japanese angry, otherwise there would be nothing left, and they would have to fight again.

Although they have won several battles since the beginning of the Burma War, and also won a battle in Guangxi, annihilating more than 100,000 devils in a few days, they do not think that China is about to win.

At present, many people in China, including the government, actually do not have much confidence in winning the war, even if there are several victories in Burma in front of them, they also think so, they feel that Japan is too strong, and how difficult it is to defeat Japan.

And Wang Hanzhang knows this, there are two reasons why China did not surrender, one is that there are still some people who firmly believe that China will win, and then the vast majority of people are not willing to become slaves of the country, so they can persist if they can persevere, not to mention that with the support of the Americans, everyone's confidence is also a lot.

In any case, after the treaty was signed, although China had killed and wounded more than 20 million soldiers and civilians in this war, and countless wealth was destroyed or plundered, it was now able to regain the lost territory without bloodshed, and there was no need for another major war in these places, which would undoubtedly reduce China's losses and casualties by half, which was still gratifying, and in the future, if Wang Hanzhang wanted to take revenge, he would fight abroad, and when the time came, all the ammunition accumulated today would be poured on the Japanese and their vassals.
