A final peace treaty was signed between Germany and Japan. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 Under the terms of the treaty, Japan will completely withdraw its troops from the foreign occupation zone and completely renounce its rule over the area; This means that whether it is Korea, which it invaded and annexed in its early years, or the South Philippines, Hawaii, California, and large swaths of East Asia that it has acquired in recent years, it will be free from Tokyo's fierce rule and usher in a new life. Japanese living on these lands must sell or return home with their inherent assets within 15 days, or they will be arrested as prisoners of war. By this means, the basis of Japanese rule in these regions was completely uprooted, and from now on, there was no objective basis for their control over these regions.

In the military sphere, the treaty also put a harsh iron hoop on post-war Japan. Japan's annual military spending is limited to no more than 5% of government revenues, and the active duty personnel of the army and navy are limited to 80,000 and 250,000 respectively; The development and possession of sophisticated weapons such as heavy bombers, ballistic missiles, nuclear weapons, and aircraft carriers were banned, the formation of an air force was banned, and Germany had the right to permanently establish a monitoring organization in Japan to prevent it from violating the treaty. All R&D projects contrary to the previous regulations shall be terminated immediately, personnel shall be disbanded, and data shall be destroyed; Existing weapons that violate the regulations are immediately surrendered as part of war reparations. As a result, the Japanese Navy's painstakingly managed air force broke its wings, and no air carrier could carry them to soar in the blue sea sky.

In addition, Japan's personnel and political structure were fundamentally undermined by the treaty. The base camp was disbanded, and the war-obsessed royal soldiers and far-right figures were completely liquidated: they were taken into custody in large numbers, and dozens of them were prosecuted as core war criminals. And those grassroots officers and soldiers of the Japanese army who had been violent and wanton on foreign battlefields and committed bloody crimes. will also be turned out of old accounts without exception. And pushed to a military court for trial. As for the political sphere. The collapsed constitutional system has been reshaped, and the party leader has re-emerged as the central first choice of the prime minister and cabinet members; The emperor issued a decree to revise the constitution, defining himself as an ordinary person who was not a god, and his inherent military and political power was largely delegated with the change of the constitution, and he gradually became a totem with only symbolic significance.

Although the introduction of this treaty, which aims to comprehensively "decapativate" Japan in the field of foreign expansion, has attracted the roar of the right-wing forces in Japan with mixed grief and indignation; However, after a day of intense meetings, the base camp announced that it had accepted the other party's conditions in its entirety. For no other reason, Japan can no longer afford the apocalyptic catastrophe of December 16 last year. Whether it's a meat bullet assault or a 100 million jade smash. It doesn't make sense in the face of the other side's nuclear missiles launched from afar; After all, there are only a very small number of crazy people who want the whole country to be martyred for the "Buwu Quartet", and the vast majority of the people want to live in peace, and after a vote, the peace talks faction finally occupies an absolute dominant position.

Now that the traditional harsh military junta has fallen, Japan's once-suppressed domestic propaganda has finally begun to speak to the contrary. Under the vigorous impetus of Germany, some Japanese newspapers and broadcasts began to expose the dark background of the military junta: In addition to oppression and exploitation at home and making the people pay for its high military spending, a large number of atrocious crimes committed by the military government in its foreign expansion were also exposed, and all kinds of reports of burning, killing and looting were endless. Although this still could not completely change the social trend of defeat and non-confession of guilt in Japan, it also provided a conclusive and reasonable basis for Germany's severe punishment of Japan in the treaty.

The Japanese Empire, which had once dominated the Far East and became the only emerging imperialist power in Asia, collapsed after the signing of the peace treaty. It has become a fleeting wave in the long river of history. And with the rapid decline of the country's power after the nuclear salvo, and the fundamental difference between the new government and the imperial military in the field of domestic and foreign affairs. The massive army, once second only to Germany, also began the process of its collapse. A large number of soldiers were demobilized, equipment was sealed and destroyed, and naval warships were also towed to the shipyard in batches for dismantling after transporting the local people from the foreign occupation areas back to the mainland. The red-and-white sunburst flag of the hunt was gradually lost in the Pacific Ocean, replaced by a black iron cross; Although they are far less numerous than the former at their peak, no country can squint at them.

For the legacy of the old Japanese Empire, Qingying also properly handled and distributed it. The South Philippines and the Hawaiian Islands were taken over by Germany, thus achieving complete control over the world's oceans. The Korean Peninsula made it necessary or unwilling for Germany to seek a new colony in Northeast Asia. California, located on the west coast of North America, was incorporated into the "American Democracy" of 12 southern states, competing with the United States of America in the north, with Washington as its capital. In return for the latter's participation in the sanctions embargo initiated by Germany two years earlier, and in appeasement of the frustration of California's territorial aspirations, Germany forgave the United States in the north of the huge reparations to Japan and returned some of the former U.S. Pacific Fleet ships captured by Japan to the White House administration. However, these economic sweeteners are only small favors after all, and Germany, which has dominated all this, is undoubtedly the biggest beneficiary of the overall strategy.

Time is like water, years are like songs, and time flows quickly between Qingying's fingers like fine sand. During this period, apart from the slight friction between Austria-Hungary and Italy, Imperial Russia and Siberia, and the Balkan states, there was nothing important for Qing Ying to worry about, and he lived a most relaxed and comfortable life. With the fall of all the powerful enemies on all sides, the Qing Ying also began to gradually promote the transformation of Germany into a more superior constitutional system in peace: the whole country no longer needed to tighten the nerves of war under the centralized rule of the military Junkers headed by the emperor, strengthen the propaganda of peaceful development, and separate the power to make major decisions from the emperor. Although this was contrary to the historical origins of the modern German states, and obviously damaging the imperial power, Qing Ying was still determined to push forward this reform train in his imperial years, so that the country could be transformed from the inside out. This is not only to enable the country to have better prospects for future development, but more importantly, to prevent it from going down the same path as the old Japanese Empire, losing itself in endless victories and intoxication of foreign expansion. If Germany's war machine is allowed to operate endlessly, it will not only bring great harm to the world, but it is also very likely that the transcendent power it has today will be dragged down and hollowed out by the massive war expenses on all sides. The collapse of the Soviets after their heyday is a lesson that the present Qingying needs to avoid.

On June 7, 1944, Wilhelm II died at the Royal General Hospital in Berlin. The whole of Germany lowered the flag at half-mast in mourning, and countless whistles and horns sounded in unison at the same moment for three minutes of mournful hissing. Qingying, who also had faint wrinkles, silently stared at the calm face that had lost her vitality, and her throat seemed to be stuck in a boulder; 51 years have passed, and he has already regarded each other as his real biological father in the past half century of getting along. Sound and smile, care and expectation, cultivation and trust, thunder and rain and dew...... Countless memories swept him up like a flood, leaving him silent in a whirlpool of inextricable sorrow and pain.

According to William's last words, his funeral should be as simple as possible, and only royal relatives should be present. In accordance with this request, Qingying watched his coffin be buried in the lawn of the Old Palace of East Prussia in the sound of the priest's prayers, and rested with the previous Prussian kings. Qingying, who felt that the years were unforgiving, also began to pave the way for his retreat: Crown Prince Sprint began to enter the center and was specifically responsible for all the affairs of one aspect, and some outstanding young people with great potential in the field of military and political affairs were also poached to his side as the core team of the future emperor. Qing Ying is ready to spend ten years to train his young son, who is still immature, to become a qualified emperor; At that time, he will no longer be a porcelain vase with an empty face, but a truly tempered weapon.

The streamer flies, the years go by, and Qingying, who is more than a year old, finally shows the face that an old man should have. In order to prevent his young son from repeating the tragedy of the sixty-year-old prince in later generations, he also chose to abdicate and retire to his heir, who felt that he was still in good health. In fact, after ten years of reform, the power of the emperor today has been greatly weakened compared with that of the Qing Dynasty; The people gradually accepted the new system of partisan campaigning, and the emperor was no longer a dictatorship. Under Qingying's painstaking cultivation and years of admonition, the new emperor Sprint also faithfully inherited Qingying's will, and continued to promote this process through a series of subtle and silent orders. Qingying, who has been relieved of her burden, travels with her wife to enjoy this unique scenery that is completely different from the historical world.

Perhaps because of the special physique of the traverser who had already rewritten the law, Qingying's longevity was extremely abundant, but one day, he also felt that his consciousness could not command his body. The wife's cold hand, which had lost its temperature, was held in her fingers, and her heart was filled with mixed sour happiness. In a trance, he seemed to see the angel with holy white feathers leading him onto a shining path to heaven, and the girl-like Sonia was waving her hand in front of him, as if urging him to keep up with his footsteps quickly. Qingying's heart flowed through a warm current that soaked his soul, he smiled slightly, and strode onto the heavenly path that appeared in the void.

The holy light shone in front of him, and he couldn't feel anything more. (To be continued......)
