"What? Japan surrendered? When Wang Sirui, who was far away in Beijing, received this situation, he was instantly shocked and speechless. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

What kind of urine is the Japanese, Wang Sirui, who came from later generations, naturally knows better than anyone that the Americans defeated Japan in history is far from being as easy as imagined, although most people believe that the reason why Japan really surrendered in history was because of two atomic bombs.

But in fact, the atomic bomb was only one of the reasons for Japan's surrender, or it could be said to be the last straw that broke the 'camel' of Japan.

Prior to this, Japan had already begun to suffer a rout in the entire Asian theater, with one naval defeat after another, and a large number of warships sinking to the bottom of the sea. The Army, which had lost naval support, was not even able to receive any supplies in the theater of operations, and this situation lasted for a long time, and Japan's national strength was seriously depleted as a result.

Coupled with the special ideology of the Japanese, the more excellent the soldiers, the more proud they are to die in battle, which directly led to another serious consequence, the rapid decline in the quality of Japanese soldiers at the end of the war.

These are all one of the ultimate reasons for Japan's surrender in history, but now, before the imperial army even landed on Honshu Island, the Japanese emperor has chosen to surrender, what the hell is this? What exactly do the Japanese want to do? Fraud? It seems unlikely, with the current strength competition between the enemy and us, Japan has no capital to surrender at all, and if Japan really thinks so, then the final result can only be to lead the wolf into the hole.

"Yes, Japan has surrendered, and just now, the Japanese side entrusted the British ambassador Sadaoyi to transmit the surrender opinion to the Prime Minister's Office." Wang Shizhen responded with a smile on his face, Japan, the last strong enemy of the empire in Asia, has now chosen to surrender less than half a month after the start of the war, this sense of accomplishment is incomparable, and it was unimaginable before, but now, it really happened to him.

"Why? As far as I've learned, the Japanese don't give up so easily. Wang Sirui still can't believe this fact.

But it's no wonder that Wang Sirui, after all, from later generations, how tenacious the Japanese army in history is, Wang Sirui is clear, if this battle has been fought for a year and a half, and then tell him that Japan has surrendered, then Wang Sirui will choose to believe.

But now, everything is too fast, so fast that Wang Sirui can't believe it.

"I don't know the specific situation, but from the British mouth, I know some roughly, but the authenticity is not yet certain." Wang Shizhen paused for a moment and continued: "The British said that Emperor Meiji of Japan died of illness, and before he died, Emperor Meiji personally signed the edict of surrender. I think this reason is a bit far-fetched, Emperor Meiji died, and there is Crown Prince Yoshihito behind him, it stands to reason that Japan should not surrender so easily, unless there are more serious problems within them. ”

"There's a serious problem inside?" Wang Sirui frowned tightly, and suddenly thought of something in his head, Wang Sirui, who was very surprised, slapped his thigh violently, and almost jumped up directly in excitement.

And Wang Shizhen below was also stunned, very puzzled why the emperor had such a reaction, could he know the reason for this?

"Yes, it is Japan's own internal problems, and this problem is irreparable, so for Japan, they have only one way to go." Wang Sirui said fiercely.

In fact, the problems facing Japan also appeared in the case of the Chinese Empire, and it can be said that the problems faced by the two countries in this regard are the same. But the difference is that Japan's problems are completely self-seeking, while the problems of the Chinese Empire are unavoidable, and this can only be improved through time, but fortunately, Wang Sirui is still very young, in his early thirties, no matter how he survives, he can survive until the prince grows up under his knees.

Japan is different, the Japanese imperial family is originally a close marriage, so the descendants of the Japanese imperial family have been weak and sick since childhood, and when they arrived at Emperor Meiji, although they gave birth to several sons, only the crown prince Yoshihito survived in the end, and the rest all died young.

And this Kahito, that is, the historical Taisho Emperor, in any country, it is impossible for a prince like Kashihito to ascend to the throne, in fact, if Emperor Meiji had a choice, he would not choose to let Kahito ascend the throne.

In fact, Emperor Meiji valued his grandson, Yoshihito's son, Hirohito.

Hirohito changed the tradition of the frail Japanese imperial family, and was smart and studious, and was very much loved by Emperor Meiji, if Emperor Meiji could survive until Hirohito could take charge on his own, he would definitely choose to pass the throne to Hirohito.

But the fact did not develop according to Emperor Meiji's ideas, because the invasion of the Chinese caused Emperor Meiji's illness to worsen, and the news of the defeat came one after another, mad Kahito and angry Meiji.

And Emperor Meiji knew very well in his heart that a sometimes crazy Kahito was not an opponent of the Chinese at all, and even a normal Kashihito was hardly an opponent of the young emperor of China. And Hirohito is still young, and he has just passed his ninth birthday, if this is a time of peace, then he still has a chance to develop slowly, but now, let a nine-year-old child who knows nothing about politics be the enemy of a powerful empire, how can he be an opponent?

Was Emperor Meiji a monarch who could afford to let go? Apparently not.

But he didn't have any way, Emperor Meiji, who had completed his life, also knew very well in his heart that continuing to resist stubbornly would certainly let the outside world see the determination of the Japanese, but so what? The Chinese are more important in their hearts, and the Japanese are at most to win some sympathy points, which is not important at all for the overall situation.

And the Chinese continued to massacre Japanese soldiers and civilians on the front line, which made Emperor Meiji feel afraid, and he was afraid that if he continued to resist, the Japanese would one day be killed, and with the determination of the Chinese, this situation seems to be very likely.

Therefore, after comprehensive consideration, Emperor Meiji still chose to surrender, anyway, he is also a dying man, the glory of Japan was brought by him, and now the shame of Japan, let him take it alone.

Of course, the biggest problem is still the problem of Japan's military strength, although Japan has received military aid from the United States, but the military aid has not yet been traced, and the Japanese army lost its position very quickly, coupled with the complete rout of the navy, the US Navy is not capable of protecting the whole process, if the Chinese choose to sink these transport ships, then what should Japan do?

To put it bluntly, Japan is a gambler country, once they find that it is profitable, they will run faster than anyone else, but once they find that it is not profitable, and they may even have to take their own lives, they will be more nervous than anyone else. But on another level, it can be seen that the Japanese are only bent over the strong.

"Your Majesty, the minister is still a little puzzled, could it be that Japan wants to usurp the throne? So Emperor Meiji had to keep his imperial status in this way? Wang Shizhen is still a little confused, only with the current information, it is not enough for Wang Shizhen to judge more problems, he only knows that Jiaren is not in good health, but he doesn't know what Jiaren's situation is, and Wang Shizhen has also understood before, Jiaren seems to have started regent a long time ago, which is equivalent to clearing the obstacles for him to ascend the throne.

"Hehe, as soon as Emperor Meiji died, the Japanese imperial family was not accepted, although the crown prince Yoshihito could ascend the throne, but Meiji did not have any confidence in him, on the contrary, Meiji was more optimistic about his grandson, Hirohito." Wang Sirui smiled and explained.

"For a madman, if he dares to hand over the country to him, that is the real end of Japan. And Hirohito is only nine years old this year, so he can't support such a heavy responsibility at all. Wang Sirui continued.

The Meiji Emperor was able to appoint a regent, but there were also great drawbacks to doing so, such as the fact that decades of time would make these ministers have bad intentions? If, in the intervening decades, these ministers were bent on overthrowing the emperor and replacing him, what could the young prince do to stop him?

Or how could the Meiji Emperor guarantee that all the ministers he appointed were loyal? Will neither have evil thoughts nor submit to the Chinese?

Therefore, for Emperor Meiji, the best way is to surrender, and then in the post-war negotiations, try to keep the Japanese imperial family, and as long as the imperial family is still there, even if it is just a symbolic existence, it is much better than perishing, at least his descendants will not be left in the world, become the bones of starvation, become the outcasts who grab food in the beggar's bowl.

At this moment, Emperor Meiji is selfish, and he has no way not to be selfish, his son is unreliable, his grandson is too young, and he is about to die, such a situation makes it difficult for him to arrange, even in peacetime, let alone wartime.

Similarly, Meiji also knew very well that if Japan was handed over to the Chinese, then the Japanese imperial family would inevitably be safe and sound, even if it was to appease the Japanese civilians, the Chinese would not touch the Japanese imperial family, but once it was handed over to the Japanese, then waiting for the imperial family, only the head of the family, and this is also the standard configuration of the fallen emperor's family, and no dynasty has ever been spared.

While power brings them extreme beauty, it also brings them unexpected dangers.

"Then we received this edict of surrender?"

"Pick up, immediately send someone to Japan to receive it, all those who dare to resist will be killed, and in addition, after the funeral of the Meiji era, all members of the Japanese imperial family will come to Zhongjing."
