Just half a month before the start of the Normandy landings, the Chinese and American allies had already made a big victory in Japan. After a lot of fighting, the Americans, after paying 230,000 lives, took the entire island of Shikoku. Of course, not all of these people were Japanese, but there were also 50,000 members of the Japanese Free Army.

The number of American troops exceeded 10 million, but the hundreds of thousands of casualties in a battle in the United States had already shocked the American high-level, and Roosevelt had to ask China for help. At this time, China is also attacking the island of Honshu with the most hard work, so naturally it cannot help the United States, and as China's strength becomes stronger and stronger, China's human life is becoming more and more precious, how can it help the United States bear the sacrifice at will.

Qiao Yu only promised to send some Japanese Free Army as cannon fodder troops to be consumed by the United States at will. The Americans are not stupid either, and China is recruiting the Japanese as a servant army, and they will not be polite.

In fact, these Japanese have a very peculiar characteristic, that is, although they are very ferocious in battle, and there is a lifeless energy everywhere, but once they are defeated, these people become very honest. Obedient to the extreme, the Japanese prisoners of war were the best laborers, and as long as they were not starved to death, these people would work honestly and never slack off. Even if they were allowed to deal with their own compatriots, these people would not be soft, and the huge contrast between the front and back once surprised the soldiers of China and the United States.

How can the same group of people be so different! Through a period of observation, I also discovered the mystery, these Japanese have no right and wrong at all, no principles, they only recognize the strong, the Chinese and American allies defeated the Japanese government army, then they are undoubtedly strong, according to these Japanese concepts. There is no shame in compromising with the strong. On the contrary, it is very natural.

After discovering this characteristic of the Japanese. Even the Americans are determined to take the emperor Hirohito, don't look at the fact that most of the Japanese are still obedient to the emperor, but as long as the allies completely defeat the emperor, the Japanese will despair. They will honestly accept the conqueror.

If the emperor is retained, the factors of Japanese turmoil and rebellion are retained, and the gains outweigh the losses.

The Chinese army launched a landing operation in the southern part of the island, and in the two months of the war, the Chinese air force shot down more than 2,300 Japanese planes. Thirteen suicide warships were sunk, twenty submarines were sunk, and the last bit of Japan's naval and air power was depleted.

After the Chinese army landed on Honshu Island, it did not blindly pursue speed, but steadily advanced, and the busiest at this time was no longer the soldiers on the front line, but the logistics troops in the rear who were responsible for clearing the battlefield.

Although Japan's industrial strength is relatively weak among all industrialized countries, the Japanese also have their own unique skills, they can build 60,000 or 70,000 tons of giant ships, and they can design Zero fighters. This all means that Japan has not weak technological capabilities, otherwise Japan would not be able to survive the end of World War II. Rapid rise.

Even if Japan's technology is relatively backward, it is always possible to learn from each other. When fighting against Japan, the Chinese army also discovered a rather strange employment system in Japan.

In militaristic Japan, the military must be prioritized in all actions, and the same is true for the distribution of human resources. This may seem like a no-brainer, but it hides a huge hidden danger.

In the army, only the logistics and medical units can accommodate civilian personnel, and if you are a good mathematician or a physicist, you are required to be sent to the army, and the army does not have a position for you to use your talents, then you can only be a big soldier.

Under this strange system, Japan's scientific research capability has been seriously weakened, and the military has blindly occupied a large number of talents, but caused a serious shortage of available talents in other aspects, which is another huge harm.

Japan occupied a considerable number of colonies in the early days of the war, and in order to control these colonies, a large number of civil officials were needed, and the best people were sent to the army. The Japanese can only find some scum from the local area to help Japan maintain order. In some cases, they even directly pulled the Japanese army up and used military law to manage the localities, so how could there be no problems with such perverse actions?

The loss of control over the colonies was also an important reason for Japan's rapid rout, and of course the stubborn Japanese would not reflect on these things, they were typical of hitting the southern wall and not looking back.

At first, the Chinese side did not expect the Japanese to play such a game, but when they attacked Hiroshima, they encountered big trouble, the fortifications designed by the Japanese army were extremely hidden, difficult to find, and even more difficult to destroy, and these fortifications were one ring after another, and the design was very exquisite.

The Japanese relied on these fortifications to inflict heavy casualties on the Chinese army, and in order to capture a Hiroshima, China paid a full price of 50,000 people, and Liu Xiang, as the commander-in-chief, was very angry and immediately ordered a strict investigation into what caused such a large loss.

After some investigation, it was found that the main reason was that the Japanese army used the rubble left behind after the destruction of the buildings to build tight and complex fortifications on the Japanese tunnel fortifications, especially after entering the city of Hiroshima. With rubble as cover, the Chinese air force is difficult to detect, and therefore cannot provide effective air support, for the besieging army to suffer such large losses.

The Japanese army in other parts of the world, though tenacious, was not so cunning, and the fortifications were far less elaborate, and after some investigation, the Chinese military finally found the secret. It turned out that among the Japanese defenders in Hiroshima was a construction expert who was proficient in civil engineering and had a great talent for designing fortifications.

The fortifications of Hiroshima were all designed by him, and during the occupation of Hiroshima by the Chinese army, he finally caught this guy, this man is called Taro Aoki, in his forties, short and stocky, and his appearance is not good. But it's just this guy who has made big trouble for China.

China's biggest concern is that once Aoki's design is popularized by the Japanese army, the Japanese army's ability to defend the city will be greatly improved, and it is conceivable that every city in the future will become a large cemetery, and China will have to pay huge sacrifices to completely occupy the Japanese mainland.

After Qiao Yu learned the news, he was even ready to stop the attack and instead use nuclear weapons to force Japan to surrender unconditionally. However, in the following investigation, it was found that Aoki's design was used only in Hiroshima, and not at all in other areas.

Facts have proved to be nothing more than a false alarm, but the Chinese side has an in-depth understanding of Japan's strange way of employing people, and Japan simply cannot give full play to the maximum value of its already not rich talents, but there may really be some treasures in the Japanese army.

After these discoveries were made, the Chinese army took great care to investigate the Japanese prisoners when advancing, and did not hesitate to stay if there were important talents among them.

In addition, professional and technical workers are also urgently needed in China, once caught, the best are sent back to China, and the others are sent to the Nanyang region, after the war, here is the time of the blue thread, China wants to build a large number of factories here, these Japanese mechanics are undoubtedly the cheapest choice.

The most precious thing in a country is the industrial workers, and many people think that Japan was in ruins during World War II, but it was able to rise rapidly, so they admire the Japanese so much that they even bow down. In fact, this is nothing at all, in the original time and space, the local area has not been destroyed on a large scale, and the Japanese industrial workers are there, as long as some foreign technology and equipment are introduced, the country can develop rapidly, and in the final analysis, the most valuable thing is the industrial worker team.

Qiao Yu naturally knew all this, so from the moment the Chinese army set foot on Japanese soil, Japan's heavy industry was completely cleaned up, Qiao Yu ordered the Chinese logistics troops to dismantle all the heavy machinery in Japan, re-register the industrial workers, and control the scientific research institutions and major universities.

Machines and personnel have been obtained in China, and all research results have been confiscated, these things may not be looked down upon by the United States, but they are definitely beneficial to China, which has a relatively low industrial level.

Of course, even if it was useless, China would not leave it to the Japanese, and after all the useless things were dismantled, they were thrown on the desert islands to rot and rust, and wherever China passed, Japan's heavy industry was devastated, and it can be said that all the industrial wealth that Japan had painstakingly accumulated from the Meiji Restoration was swept away.

Japan has been reduced from a country with a complete industrial system to a country with only light industry, of course, the Japanese will not starve to death, they can also develop light industry, develop civilian technology, develop tourism, and even customs industry, and even make comics, make movies, the same can make a lot of money, the same can live comfortably, but since then, Japan's heavy industry has suffered a serious blow, and the military industry has completely disappeared.

Even if the Japanese would re-establish themselves, the time was running out, and the island nation would be completely harmless.

After steadily advancing and taking Hiroshima, the Chinese army captured strategic points such as Matsue, Tottori, and Koyama, and directed their troops towards Osaka. At the same time, the United States occupied the entire island of Shikoku, landed in the Wakayama area, and reunited with the Chinese army, which surrounded Osaka.

The war has reached this point, half of Japan is gone, crazy suicide attacks will not save the fate of Japan, the Allies have already hit Osaka, the next step is Nagoya, and then Tokyo!

After Emperor Hirohito landed in Japan from the Allied forces, he had trouble sleeping and eating, and every time he pushed forward, Hirohito's heart became entangled, and he clenched his intestines and scratched his heart and liver. His real fear had never been so fearful, that he was no longer the Emperor on the high, but a prisoner of the Allies.

China and the United States will not let him go, just two days ago, came the news of Germany's failure to rescue Mussolini, in the melee, Mussolini was shot and killed by the guards, and the Italian leader lost his life, Hirohito thought of this, the more he felt that his future was bleak.
