Chapter 641: The country is ruined and the city is broken
Hirohito is not a stupid person, he saw this situation, and immediately guessed that he was betrayed by Ishihara Waner and Okamura Ningji, a nameless fire rushed straight to the top beam, his face was distorted, his lips were purple, and he couldn't speak. At the same time, a huge sense of fear also came to his heart, he has now become a prisoner of the Chinese army, this is the thing he is most worried about, he didn't expect it to become a reality, how can he not despair.
The Chinese side has long hoped to catch Hirohito, the culprit, send him to court, and try him publicly in front of the whole world, and completely trample the high-ranking emperor under his feet and make him lose face, such a punishment is far better than killing him in an unknown way.
However, it is not easy to catch Hirohito, the Chinese side has arranged a large number of spies, hoping to gain something, but Hirohito's secrecy has been done well, and it is difficult for intelligence officers to determine his final location.
Just when the Chinese side was at a loss, suddenly representatives of the Japanese Mitsubishi zaibatsu took the initiative to contact the Allies, hoping to take the initiative to atone for their crimes and let the Allies guarantee the safety of their family property. These plutocratic capitalists are very similar in nature to the Jewish conglomerates in the United States, they have no loyalty, only interests. Moreover, after Hirohito took power, he also carried out a series of crackdowns against the chaebol, and the Japanese chaebol has long been dissatisfied.
In addition, these zaibatsu are not stupid, they see very clearly that Japan's defeat is irreversible, and it is better to take the initiative to seek a way out than to perish with the country. After all, if you want to break through the fortress, the best way is to start from within, and the chaebol is also one of the most important forces in Japan. They are able to be extremely helpful.
Therefore, Qiao Yu immediately gave an order. Agree to the Mitsubishi zaibatsu's request. They promised to ensure the safety of their lives and property, and after receiving the promise of the Chinese side, the Mitsubishi zaibatsu immediately secretly provided a large amount of information to the Allies, and was able to quickly conquer Tokyo. They also have important relationships.
Both China and the United States listed Emperor Hirohito as the No. 1 war criminal, so it became the greatest wish of China and the United States to break through Tokyo and capture Hirohito. Mitsubishi also actively launched an operation to fully spy on Hirohito's news.
Eventually, they got in touch with Ishihara, who had been a member of the Koeibu and was under the leadership of Saionji Kobo, who in turn had a close relationship with the chaebol, so they easily established a connection.
Ishihara was also very clear about Japan's situation, and he also frequently remembered the dying words of Saionji Kotoshi during this time, and for more than a thousand years, Japan had reached the most dangerous time, since the Allies set foot on the Japanese mainland. Japan is in danger of extinction.
At this time, it is useless to blindly fight hard, and we must compromise. As much as possible to keep Japan's vitality, from the bottom of his heart, Ishihara Waner is already inclined to surrender. Of course, he also knew that the biggest obstacle to surrender now was Emperor Hirohito, and at this time he also had to admire the vision of the Saionji Gongwang, he had foreseen this situation a long time ago, and told them the solution.
Throwing Hirohito out, making him take the blame, and then keeping the basic system of Japan, can appoint another emperor, can bend the knee and surrender, as long as he can live, is the highest wish of Japan. The Japanese have been groveling for thousands of years, and it is not difficult to fall down again now, and the last thing that should be done is to drag the whole of Japan into the abyss of no return because of their own selfishness.
This kind of thinking is definitely a big rebellion in normal times, even if Ishihara Wan'er agreed to this request in front of the bed of Xiyuan Temple Gongwang, but there was no perfunctory meaning in his heart, but now, he feels more and more that what Xiyuan Temple Gongwang said is reasonable, so he should do it.
Ishihara contacted Okamura Ninji, and the two finally reached an agreement, and at the same time sent a message to the Chinese and American allies through the Mitsubishi zaibatsu, asking the allies to promise to retain Japan's emperor system and guarantee Japan's independence and integrity.
The Allies also agreed without hesitation, and told them that the Allies would only pursue war criminals and would never break their promises. Ishihara received assurances from the Allies, and Yookamura Ninji planned the event once and again, and they gave Hirohito as a gift to the Allies.
Hirohito, who was pulled out of the car by the Chinese special forces, Hirohito's face was pale, his eyes could almost burst into flames, and he stared at Ishihara and Okamura.
"Traitor! Scum! Shame on the Yamato nation! Hirohito's roar was full of anger and unwillingness, he never thought that he had been betrayed by two Japanese officers, which was even more uncomfortable for him than the Allies directly captured him.
Ishihara suddenly knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty, the reason why Ishihara is doing this is to be able to defend Japan, although Your Majesty is noble, but it is not as important as the whole of Japan, and the minister has a clear conscience." However, after all, the minister is a person who betrays the master, and once anything happens to His Majesty, the Ishihara family will follow His Majesty to the death! ”
"Phew! Japan!? I am Japan, you idiot, do you think that if you betray me and let me take the blame, you can let China and the United States let Japan go? No, it won't! Japan is finished, and you two red deer are the biggest sinners of the empire......"
Hirohito continued to curse, the Chinese special forces had already stuffed him into the prepared armored car, and then Empress Ryoko and others were also taken away, and Ishihara Waner and Okamura Ningji were still standing in place in a daze and didn't know how to move, looking at the armored car in the distance, the two of them also fell into deep thought, is it right to do it yourself?
Ishihara and Okamura suddenly felt a trace of uneasiness in their hearts, but at this time, the allies were very happy, and they easily got the trump card of Hirohito, and most of the Japanese problems were solved, and the Allied soldiers no longer had to suffer huge casualties.
However, Koiso Kuniaki and others in Tokyo fell into complete panic, and His Majesty the Emperor's family disappeared, and no one was seen alive or dead. At the thought that the emperor might fall into the hands of the allies, Koiso Kuniaki felt that his head instantly became dozens of times larger, and the heavy and oppressive air made him speechless.
The same is true of the other Japanese generals, who desperately search for Hirohito, but there is no news, and at the same time they also find that Ishihara and his men have also disappeared, which casts a shadow over Koiso Kuniaki's heart. ‘
The Japanese upper echelons were in chaos, and the entire defense system of Tokyo became lax, and the Allies successfully cut off Tokyo and the surrounding Japanese defenders in one fell swoop, and split them into several parts that were not subordinate to each other. The situation in Tokyo was becoming more and more unfavorable for the Japanese, and even more unfavorable was that their hearts had been scattered.
Three days later, the Allies took the initiative to stop attacking the Japanese positions, and hundreds of loudspeakers appeared on the Allied positions, and from these loud horns the Japanese heard an incredible sound, that is, the crane sound of their emperor.
For ordinary Japanese, it is definitely a great honor to be able to hear the voice of the emperor, but this time none of them can laugh, the emperor actually directly demanded that all Japanese soldiers and civilians give up their weapons and surrender unconditionally to the allies!
These Japanese soldiers all felt extremely false, they were able to fight to the death, did not hesitate to sacrifice everything, and the greatest spiritual pillar was to be loyal to the emperor, and how many of them shouted the slogan of long live the emperor and the steel of the Chinese and American allies. If they fought for the Emperor, and the Emperor made their loyal samurai surrender, was their sacrifice worthwhile?
Just when the Japanese military and people were stunned, China and the United States dispatched a large number of planes, and countless leaflets fell like snowflakes, and the leaflets wrote in simple Japanese that Emperor Hirohito had been arrested, and that all Japanese soldiers and civilians must give up resistance as soon as possible, and if they continue to resist to the death, not only will they be completely wiped out, but even the safety of the emperor will not be guaranteed.
On the leaflet there was also a photo of Emperor Hirohito, in which the emperor was still the same, but he was a little haggard and tired. But some Japanese soldiers who had seen the portrait of the emperor, and even witnessed the emperor himself, instantly recognized that this was their emperor, their spiritual pillar.
For a moment, ordinary Japanese people only felt that the sky had fallen, and everything they believed in was empty. The Japanese didn't even know that they were going to continue to resist, they threw their weapons on the ground in despair, and in an instant they changed from fierce beasts to lambs to the slaughter, and the difference between before and after was unimaginable.
Some of the officers did not believe what they heard and saw, and they believed that it was a conspiracy of the Allies, and that the emperor was blessed by the gods, how could it fall into the hands of the Shina people. They shouted desperately, asking the soldiers to take up arms and continue the fight.
However, the Japanese have long reached a limit, they can no longer hold on, and now they have removed their spiritual pillars, and they are suddenly like deflated balls, and they can no longer muster up their fighting spirit.
Seeing the rapid collapse of the Japanese army, some of the most stubborn officers saw that everything was irreparable, and they committed suicide by caesarean section, which almost became a wave that swept the entire defenders of Tokyo, and soon more than 300 middle and lower-ranking officers committed suicide in despair, losing these backbone forces, and the will to resist of the entire Japanese army also completely collapsed.
The Allies have been paying attention to the situation of the Japanese army, when they saw the emperor's words, these brave soldiers turned into sheep, all of them had a burst of inexplicable shock in their hearts, and at the same time had a new understanding of the status of the emperor, perhaps among the Japanese high-level, the emperor is not so sacred, but in the eyes of ordinary Japanese, the emperor is a living god.
With Hirohito's speech, the morale of the Japanese defenders also collapsed, and the Allies easily occupied the whole of Tokyo, and quickly controlled the military and political leaders of the Japanese government, they were all war criminals, and they must not be allowed to die early to be brought to trial.
At the same time, the Allies transmitted the Emperor's speech to the whole of Japan, especially to the northern part of Honshu Island, and the Japanese who were still thinking of stubborn resistance all gave up their resistance, and the military operations in the Japanese archipelago finally ended!
