Han Yunhua did not expect that the battle he launched would directly lead to the collapse of the Tojo cabinet, and in history, Tojo Hideki was forced to step down in 1944, but the reason is similar to now, because of the defeat in the war, which was questioned by the people, and then attacked by political opponents and stepped down

In fact, as early as the defeat of the Japanese army in the Battle of Midway, Hideki Tojo's position was in shaky shape, but because the navy was afraid of taking responsibility, it deliberately concealed the results of the war. Therefore, although the Japanese Navy suffered its first crushing defeat in a century, the losses were quite heavy. But Tojo, as the prime minister, was kept in the dark and didn't know it. But those in the know put the blame on Tojo, and even Emperor Hirohito was dissatisfied with the cabinet led by Hideki Tojo.

Han Yunhua was overjoyed when the news of Hideki Tojo's resignation came, but he knew very well that Hideki Tojo's resignation was inevitable, but it was more than a year earlier than in history. The internal situation in Japan, a country that has been drained by the war, is extremely unobjective, and the changes in the domestic situation have also brought the Japanese government to the brink of political bankruptcy. Hideki Tojo succeeded Konoe as prime minister of Japan, and compared with Hideki Tojo, a war maniac, Konoe Fumima lacked the courage to start a war with the United States. He himself was very familiar with the situation in Japan and knew that the chances of winning a war with the United States were not too great, so he resolutely resigned from the post of prime minister.

Hideki Tojo is different, he is a complete war maniac, and he is very disdainful of Hideki Tojo's caution in Konoe Bunma. At that time, Fumiro Konoe did not have the courage to directly clash with the United States, so he demanded that Minister Tojo should act "cautiously" on major decisions. Hideki Tojo said disdainfully, "Sometimes, we have to have the courage to do something extraordinary—like jumping down from the platform of Kiyomizudera Temple, just close our eyes." Hideki Tojo also shouted: "Regarding the withdrawal of troops, I will not make the slightest concession!" If the withdrawal of troops means that "the United States defeated Japan - this is a shame in the history of the Japanese Empire"!

Under these circumstances, Fumiro Konoe, who was born in the Japanese aristocracy, had no choice but to retreat from the battle, announced the resignation of the cabinet, and wisely chose to retreat in a hurry. Japan, which was on the verge of war, needed a fool to use as a signboard, and the Japanese chose Hideki Tojo, and Tojo consciously stepped on this step.

As everyone knows, the tragedy of Hideki Tojo was already doomed as soon as he came to power, and the rafters that came out of the tree were big and rotten first. When he first came to power, Hidehide Tojo held the three posts of prime minister, land minister, and interior minister, and combined military and political power, which caused many people to be dissatisfied while being majestic and powerful. In addition, Hideki Tojo is also a dictator, and in order to suppress the people's minds, Hideki Tojo practiced a terrifying gendarmerie politics and wantonly suppressed political opponents and active military officers. For example, Nishio Toshizo, who was appointed as a military senator, went to Kansai to inspect and casually said in response to a reporter's question: "I don't know about this, you can ask the guy who rummaged through the garbage bin every morning, he knows."

And what General Nishio Shouzo is talking about is actually Hideki Tojo, because one of Tojo's hobbies is to check the garbage in the garbage bin to see if anyone eats big fish and meat, and is extravagant and wasteful when the country is in trouble. This angered the narrow-minded Tojo, who immediately ordered the senior Nishio Shogun to be incorporated into the reserve. This wanton repression and dictatorship has tarnished his political reputation. In addition, Hideki Tojo favored the "three traitors and four fools", which made his reputation worse and worse.

It stands to reason that the fiasco of the Kwantung Army has nothing to do with him, the commander of the Kwantung Army is General Yamada Otosan, and it is Emperor Hirohito who ordered not to reinforce the Kwantung Army, and he, the head of the army general, has nothing to do with this, but who made Yamada Otozo his ally, Yamada Otozo and him are both prosperous and loss, Yamada Otozo is defeated, and Hideki Tojo will definitely be implicated. In addition, the order not to reinforce the Kwantung Army was given by Emperor Hirohito, but who would dare to criticize His Majesty the Great Emperor at this time. In addition, Japan really needs a scapegoat at this time, and it is honored that Hideki Tojo is playing such a role at this time. …,

As soon as the news of the resignation of Hideki Tojo's cabinet broke, the whole of Japan fell into an inexplicable silence. There are those who are happy, there are those who mourn, and there are those who regret, and the expressions are different.

Han Yunhua was also silent for a while after listening to the report of the intelligence department, but then smiled. Compared to Hideki Tojo's talent, the newly appointed Koiso Kuniaki can't catch up. Although Koiso Kuniaki is known as the Tiger of Korea, Koiso Kuniaki's control of the overall situation is not at the same level as Hideki Tojo. If Hideki Tojo is euphemistically stupid, then Nobuyuki Abe is naked.

Moreover, Han Yunhua knew that the prime minister Koiso Kuniaki had almost zero control over the Japanese military department, and although the Japanese government during the Tojo period was also under the orders of the military department, it still had some autonomy, and sometimes it could even compete with the military department. But after Koiso Kuniaki took office, the Japanese military base camp was like air for him, the prime minister. And this Koiso cabinet is also a short-lived cabinet, and it took only half a year from the formation of the cabinet to the end, so there is nothing to be afraid of at all.

Han Yunhua has no time to pay attention to the political situation in Japan now, and he is now busy taking over this mess in the Northeast. Although the Japanese army retreated, the political and economic situation in the northeast region was still chaotic, especially when the puppet Manchurian government fled, it swept away all the gold and silver hard currency, resulting in tens of billions of counterfeit coins becoming waste paper, and for a time the prices in the entire northeast region soared, and all financial activities were stagnant.

At the same time, Han Yunhua also transferred a large number of military talents from Baotou and Guisui to prepare to fully take over the industrial base departments in Northeast China, mainly military enterprises. Fortunately, the battle launched by the Inner Mongolia Military Region this time was relatively sudden and progressed relatively quickly, so the losses in the North Manchurian region were relatively small and still within the range of bearability. The losses in the Central and South Manchurian regions were much greater, and in some places almost all activities were interrupted, including transportation, electricity, and communications.

However, the development of the Inner Mongolia Military Region during this period was also great, due to the large territory, so the Inner Mongolia Military Region units have made great progress during this time, especially after the capture of a large number of Japanese weapons and equipment, the Inner Mongolia Military Region ushered in a new round of expansion. In view of the fact that the prestige of the Inner Mongolia Military Region in the northeast region had surged during this period, and the people's interest in joining the army was very high, Han Yunhua ordered the troops to step up the time to recruit new soldiers, and at the same time ordered local government departments to recruit police forces.

The war situation has basically been decided, China and Japan are facing each other across the Yalu River, and they will never allow any losses against Korea and Japan, while the Inner Mongolia Military Region is putting on a posture that is bound to win, and a dragon and tiger struggle will inevitably be set off on the Sino-Korean border. However, due to the rapid progress of the Soviet Union in the European theater and the fact that the crisis in the Far East had been completely resolved, Stalin drew up a new counterattack plan against Germany and prepared to transfer 300,000 troops from the Far East to the Eastern Front.

On January 6, 1943, the Soviet Red Army began to withdraw from Northeast China one after another, and the Inner Mongolia Military Region quickly made up for the gap in the strength of the Soviet Red Army after it withdrew.

On 9 July, Han Yunhua convened a military meeting in Shenyang at and above the commander level of the whole army to discuss the future development ideas of the troops. Since the territory of the Inner Mongolia Military Region has expanded by more than two times all at once, many people believe that the most important thing for the Inner Mongolia Military Region at this stage is to consolidate the occupied areas, rather than continue to expand its territory. However, some people believe that the troops should take advantage of the victory to pursue, and that they should invade Korea in the north, completely solve the remnants of the Kwantung Army, and completely expel the Japanese forces from northern China, otherwise the Inner Mongolia Military Region will always stay in the northeast region with a large number of troops to guard against a possible attack by the Japanese army. Or the army will immediately go south and take advantage of the victory to launch a full-scale attack on the Japanese North China Front and end this damned war as soon as possible. …,

Han Yunhua discovered the ideological differences in the army in time, and he believed that they must be resolved as soon as possible, because Han Yunhua knew that a unit could want to become a king army that won all battles. It is necessary to unify thinking, and only after ideological unity will the troops be able to think in one place and work hard in one place. Although the differences in the army may not seem big, if they are allowed to develop, they are likely to cause major disasters, so Han Yunhua has to pay attention to them.

The meeting was held at the former South Manchurian Headquarters of the Kwantung Army, and was attended by Luo Ronghuan, Chen Geng, Su Yu, Shen Yuquan, Zuo Quan, Wang Weizhou, Li Dayong, Li Dingguo, Zhao Shangzhi, Li Zhaolin, and others.

The meeting lasted for a whole day and night, and the cadres attending the meeting had a heated discussion on the 12 questions raised by Han Yunhua, which involved the political, economic, military, cultural, and other aspects of Northeast China. Han Yunhua is a person who seeks truth from facts, so he asks all the cadres of the Inner Mongolia Military Region to have something to say, and he doesn't like those who do things in a twisted way, Han Yunhua always thinks that a soldier is a soldier, and a military advisor cannot be like a politician. A good politician can also be a good military strategist, but a good military strategist should never be delusional about becoming an excellent politician, because each other's ways of acting and thinking are completely different, and the Inner Mongolia Military Region trains soldiers, and there is no need for politicians to stir up the situation, so whenever Han Yunhua holds a meeting. The cadres of the Inner Mongolia Military Region are all speaking with their arms apart, one is one, and they are completely open and transparent about what they think of.

Although the meeting was very intense, the delegates attending the meeting all proceeded from the development of the troops, and although they expressed their own opinions, they finally reached a consensus on all issues. As far as military affairs are concerned, in the end, the delegates attending the meeting all agreed that they should not be busy fighting in Korea for the time being, because after all, there are still a large number of Japanese-occupied areas in the country, and if the Inner Mongolia Military Region enters the DPRK at this time, it is very likely to cause dissatisfaction among the people at home. One reason is one reason, and the other is logistical problems. After this period of war, the ammunition and materials in the inventory of the Inner Mongolia Military Region have almost been exhausted, although a lot of materials of the Japanese puppet army have been captured, but due to management problems, Han Yunhua and the entire logistics department do not know how much ammunition the Inner Mongolia Military Region has in total now, and the aviation fuel and aerial bombs are basically exhausted, if they are not replenished as soon as possible, they will not be able to carry out a major campaign for the time being. After all, the Northeast has been under control for 12 years, and the Japanese puppet forces have infiltrated all the corners of the Northeast. Now, although the Japanese puppet army has either been wiped out or driven out of the northeast, there are still a large number of remnants of the Japanese forces hiding in the shadows to find an opportunity. Therefore, the next task is not how to eliminate the remnants of the Kwantung Army, but to consolidate the occupied areas as soon as possible, completely eliminate the remnants of the Japanese forces in the northeast region, and return the northeast to a clear and prosperous future.

Another sensitive issue is what to do with the Japanese expatriate, whose total number of internees has exceeded 1.2 million. Except for some Japanese nobles, the vast majority of these Japanese expatriates are peasants who emigrated from Japan, although these people are civilians, but they are a member of the invaders, and at the same time they are also the minions of Japanese militarism. On the one hand, these people have to pay the price for their choices and atone for the unforgivable crimes they committed in China, and at the same time, Han Yunhua knows that the current mentality of the Japanese people is a kind of manic and sick psychology, even if the Inner Mongolia Military Region is merciful and carries forward the humanitarian spirit and sends all those Japanese nationals back to Japan unharmed, absolutely no one will say a good word about the Inner Mongolia Military Region, and bullying the weak and fearing the hard is the most direct manifestation of their character. …,

Moreover, Han Yunhua knew that when Japan was defeated, he had put forward a crazy plan, which had a crazy name - "100 million jade pieces". As we all know, Japan's jade crushing is equivalent to the glorious sacrifice mentioned by the Eighth Route Army, which was the slogan of Japanese militarism during World War II. 100 million broken jade means 100 million people died honorably, because at that time there were 100 million people in Japan, and 100 million broken jade means that all 100 million people died in battle.

This is not just talk, but this plan has been carried out by the Japanese for some time. At the end of World War II, Japan was at the end of its rope but refused to surrender, "100 million jade shatters", "the last man", "special warfare attack", "red dragonfly" what a crazy but tragic poignant word, just like the national flower of this country, blooming brilliantly and then disappearing. Piloting inferior planes that were already completely behind the Allies, the Japanese air force rushed to the American warships one after another, each with the determination to die.

The mourning soldiers may not be victorious, but the mourning soldiers can certainly inflict huge casualties on the enemy. Indeed, the battles of Saipan and Iwo Jima showed that even well-equipped American GIs had to pay a nearly 1:1 casualty rate in the face of Japan's insane bushido spirit, and that the United States would have to pay at least 1 million casualties to break through the Japanese mainland, which the United States could not afford to lose.

Han Yunhua knew that the vast majority of the troops formed by Japan in the late World War II were composed of ordinary people in China, that is to say, after these 1.2 million young adults were sent back to Japan, they were likely to appear on the battlefield again soon, so Han Yunhua insisted that all these Japanese expatriates should be moved into concentration camps for centralized care, forced to let them work, in order to wash away their crimes, and if they behave well, they can be given certain treatment.

Although Han Yunhua also knew that doing so could cause irreparable harm to these Japanese expatriates, just like the tragic situation of those Japanese expatriates in the later stages of World War II, a large number of women and children died unnaturally. But Han Yunhua did not dare to take risks, he deeply experienced the madness of the Japanese, judging from the history after that, maybe we can think that if there was no Yama County Youpeng, no victory in the First Sino-Japanese War, and no Army University, maybe this country would not go further and further on the road of madness, bringing deep disasters to Asia and itself. But Han Yunhua also knows that history cannot be assumed, the world is a complex system, the environment is made by the participants, and the participants return to transform the environment, not all phenomena can be caused and effected, the world is not a machine, there is a providence like God in the underworld, maybe they are the hands that stir the river of history. Han Yunhua can order local government departments to give Japanese nationals a certain amount of treatment, but he cannot guarantee that every local government department can do what he wants, after all, the sins caused by the Japanese in the northeast are too deep, and there are many people who harbor extreme hatred for the Japanese.

1.2 million is not a small number, and the vast majority of those who can be selected by the Japanese government as immigrants are young and middle-aged, and those who migrate to the northeast will not live for a few years, so the Japanese government will not do this kind of thing, and there are many soldiers in the countryside among these immigrants. The soldiers in the township are all soldiers who have retired from the army, which is equivalent to the Japanese reserves, and the chance of these people going to the battlefield has reached 100%, except for ruthlessly letting these people stay in the Northeast to do hard labor, Han Yunhua can't think of how to settle these Japanese expatriates.

After the meeting, Han Yunhua gave the whole army two months to rest and recuperate. At the same time, the defenders were ordered to try to put the local law and order in order within these two months, and at the same time to help the local workers and peasants resume production, and the troops would take action again after two months.
