The submission of Emperor Hirohito

Resist to the end, in the case of a serious shortage of local troops, insufficient equipment, and even almost no heavy equipment, once annoyed the Chinese expeditionary force that had already landed on the Japanese mainland. You don't have to think about it to be able to guess what kind of catastrophe the entire Japanese mainland will suffer under the bloody blow of the Chinese Expeditionary Force....

Countless young Japanese people were slaughtered on the battlefield, causing the whole of Japan to lose a large number of already very scarce labor force, and seriously affecting the next generation of Japan...

A large number of cities were burned to the ground, just like the city of Tokyo. If the entire Japanese industrial system were destroyed in an instant, tens of millions of people would be displaced and starve to death at any time. No food, no shelter....The whole of Japan will really become a hell on earth.

…………………

A country does not have a certain proportion of young and middle-aged people, no food base, and no basic industrial equipment. It is safe to say that even if the Japanese government survives, the whole of Japan will return to the time of hundreds of years ago in the blink of an eye...

Thinking of the possibility....no, not possibly, but definitely. As long as he calls on his subjects throughout the country to continue to resist, it is conceivable that these things will definitely happen in Japan itself. Thinking of this, Emperor Hirohito's face instantly revealed a deep look of fear.

Facing Ishihara Wan'er, who looked pensive in front of him, he didn't hesitate at all, and asked directly.

"Ishihara-kun, is there really no other way?"

"Your Majesty, although the criminal minister was captured on the battlefield of China, it became a disgrace to the Empire. However, the guilty minister can say with certainty that at all times, the criminal is your most loyal people. The hearts of the criminals are always towards the Japanese Empire. Towards the future of the Great Japanese Empire...."

"Although the criminal minister served as a negotiator for the Chinese Expeditionary Force, the purpose of the criminal minister was not for the Chinese Expeditionary Force. but for the future of my Great Japanese Empire...."

"Submit to the Chinese Expeditionary Force for the time being, for all of us here, especially Your Majesty. Definitely a shame that has never been in my life. However, while we are humiliated, we have preserved the vitality of the development and growth of the Great Japanese Empire, and as long as the vitality of the Empire is there, we can try our courage and rebuild the Empire step by step..."

"Your Majesty, don't think about it anymore, after replenishing a large number of American-style equipment, the combat effectiveness of the Chinese Expeditionary Force. It is no longer something that our Imperial Japanese Army can compete with at present. Therefore, the guilty minister implores His Majesty to accept the conditions of the Chinese Expeditionary Force and temporarily submit to the Chinese Expeditionary Force...."Ishihara replied in a deep voice.

Continue to resist. His reputation was preserved. However, the whole country will be pushed back by decades because of this. Or even hundreds of years. More importantly, the whole country may be destroyed in name only.

Surrendering to the Chinese Expeditionary Force, as Ishihara said, would be the greatest shame of his life. However, behind this shame, the development vitality of the entire empire was preserved ....

For a moment, Emperor Hirohito was immediately caught in a dilemma.

At the same time, the ministers standing in the main hall also shifted their eyes to Emperor Hirohito, waiting for Emperor Hirohito's final verdict....

A minute, a minute....the whole hall, with the passage of time, fell into a deathly silence.

"Baga, Chinese, sooner or later, one day, I will trample you all under my feet....no, kill all of you, and use the snow to disgrace today..." After a roar, Emperor Hirohito leaned directly on the seat as if he was overdrawn.

However, even so, the bright eyes still did not lose their color. Looking directly at Ishihara Wan'er in front of him, he said: "Ishihara-kun, can you ensure that after I surrender to the Chinese Expeditionary Force, the Chinese Expeditionary Force will spare the people of the Great Japanese Empire and preserve the vitality of the Empire..."

"No.," Ishihara replied directly.

After seeing Emperor Hirohito, whose face changed dramatically in an instant, Ishihara continued to speak.

"But, Your Majesty, this is our only chance at the moment. More importantly, as long as there is no war, the number of young and middle-aged people in the country who are already insufficient because of the war will not continue to decline because of the war. The sinner believes that as long as there are people, there is nothing that cannot be solved..."

Emperor Hirohito nodded noncommittally, agreeing with Ishihara's answer. Immediately, a pair of sharp eyes quickly glanced at the ministers in the hall who had been silent all the time, and asked.

"Gentlemen, I don't know if you have any other opinions on Ishihara-kun's suggestion?"

"But it is up to His Majesty to decide, and the ministers have no opinion...."It was obvious that the ministers had read Emperor Hirohito's inner thoughts from the conversation between the two. The emperor had already made a decision, and Ishihara Waner, who had an important influence in Japan, also agreed, and these ministers, who had no real power, of course, did not think that their lives were too long, and replied directly without the slightest hesitation.

"Yo Sai, in that case....Ishihara-kun, tell me about the negotiation conditions of the Chinese Expeditionary Force...."There were a number of ministers who bore these shames with him, and Emperor Hirohito's mood suddenly improved a lot. He asked.

"Your Majesty is wise," Ishihara said.

"The demands of the Chinese Expeditionary Force were simple: first, all military forces in the Empire of Japan were required to cease resistance. At the repeated request of the guilty ministers, and in consideration of the majesty of the Empire, all surrendered soldiers were not included as prisoners of war. Just lay down your arms and receive a new regrouping of the squadron ...."

"Second, after your surrender, Your Majesty, you will immediately dissolve the current military government and reorganize the cabinet. Among them, the main members of the cabinet must be of non-military origin, and at the same time, the cabinet members must also include some of the leaders of the domestic rebel army..."

"Third, the new Prime Minister of the Empire of Japan must be elected by the leader of the domestic rebel army..."

"Fourth, the issue of the withdrawal of the Chinese Expeditionary Force and war reparations will be decided by the newly formed Cabinet and the Chinese Expeditionary Force on their own, and will no longer be within the scope of this negotiation..."

"Your Majesty, there are four in total... As long as Your Majesty agrees to these four opinions, and sends a message to the whole country to stop resisting, stand by on the spot, and wait for the clear code of the squadron to be reorganized. The Chinese Expeditionary Force will immediately stop the siege. Ishihara said.

The General Headquarters of the Chinese Expeditionary Force, which had been transferred to outside Tokyo, was different from the anxious and excited expressions of the others, and the commander-in-chief Liu Hua was sitting in his own position with a confident face, waiting for Ishihara's return.

"Commander-in-chief, you just believe that Ishihara Waner can convince Hirohito, an old devil, to take the initiative to surrender to us...."Looking at the calm Liu Hua, Zuo Quan asked with a smile.

"Of course..."Liu Hua nodded approvingly.

Seeing the puzzled look that quickly flashed on Zuo Quan's face in front of him, Liu Hua spoke directly.

"Chief of Staff, because I believe that Ishihara is a wise man....in the face of the absolute superiority of our Chinese Expeditionary Force, he is in the present situation of the whole of Japan. It is safe to say that if this war continues, what awaits Japan will be a complete destruction. However, just as we stop now, Japan can not only retain a little vitality for future development, but more importantly, our Chinese expeditionary force can obtain the maximum benefits we want at the minimum cost..."

As soon as Liu Hua's words fell, a combat staff officer rushed in and reported excitedly.

"Commander-in-Chief, Chief of Staff, Ishihara Wanji is back...."

"Immediately ask Chief of Staff Ishihara to come in..."

Looking at Liu Hua, who was sitting firmly in the Diaoyutai in front of him, Ishihara Wan'er, who hurriedly walked in, said bluntly after a short silence: "Commander-in-Chief Liu, you have won." Your Majesty has agreed to your request and has taken the initiative to surrender to you and your army..."...,

"Chief of Staff Ishihara, on behalf of the entire Expeditionary Force, I thank you....If it were not for your mediation, I believe that the final victory would have belonged to our Chinese Expeditionary Force. However, our Chinese Expeditionary Force will also be on the battlefield, and we will pay a lot of price accordingly....Staff Officer Wang, take Chief of Staff Ishihara to rest immediately, there will be many things that Chief of Staff Ishihara needs to do next...."After a hint of excited smile quickly flashed on Liu Hua's face, Liu Hua ordered with a smile on his face.

"Thank you, Commander-in-Chief Liu..."After Ishihara finished speaking, he walked out of the office with a look of frustration and joy....

Looking at Ishihara Wan'er who was embarrassed, he saw Liu Hua, the commander-in-chief who seemed to have everything in his heart. Zuo Quan, who couldn't hold back any longer, finally asked a doubt that he had been hiding in his heart all along.

"Commander-in-Chief, since we have hit the door of the little devil's house. And with the existing equipment and strength of our expeditionary force, capturing the imperial palace and capturing Emperor Hirohito is just a matter of your words. I don't understand, why do we have to go the extra mile, let Ishihara Wan'er go to the negotiations, and let the little devil emperor take the initiative to surrender to us..."

Liu Hua smiled and said directly to Zuo Quan: "Chief of Staff, for this question, it can be summed up in a few words: 'Use the minimum casualty cost to achieve the greatest benefits in Japan...."

"If we attack rashly, raze the entire Imperial Palace, or even kill their emperor....what kind of bloody revenge do you think we will suffer from the Japanese with the influence of Emperor Hirohito in the hearts of the Japanese..."

"Of course, even if we don't kill Emperor Hirohito, it is impossible to gain the favor of any Japanese by virtue of our status as an aggressor."

"However, if we can get Emperor Hirohito to surrender to us voluntarily and issue a declaration to the people of the whole country to stop resisting, I believe that the majority of the Japanese people will not go too far, except for some militarists who will continue to resist to the death. After all, Emperor Hirohito is a god to them, and of course they have to listen to what God says...."
