I am standing in this position. Life and death are no longer controlled by myself. But at least I leave a way out for my family, right?! The other party represented by the Minister of Army Anan Weiji and Deputy Minister of Military Order Toyota, did not agree to surrender.
They still don’t recognize the form, and there are not many generals who have been on the battlefield. The generals who once fought against the National Defense Forces either died in battle or committed suicide. This led to the fact that these Japanese generals now subconsciously believed that they could still persist in completing some conditions.
Such a dispute made both sides stalemate. The meeting reached a deadlock. Suzuki Kantaro was helpless. Although it was Nishinoji's proposal to form a cabinet by himself, the officers of the Army and Navy still looked like they were inactive.
But it was not possible to prevent them from entering the cabinet. There was a problem with the negotiations between Nishiyuanji. It was because the army and Navy were dissatisfied with the actions of Nishiyuanji to exclude them during the negotiations.
This forced Nishiyuanji to re-establish the cabinet and absorb the people from the General Office. He agreed to choose his new chief of the camp, which had no leader.
In fact, the work done by Nishinoji is the most thankless now. Hirohito hopes that the war will end as soon as possible and Japan will return to a state of calm during the period of time, while ensuring the status of the royal family. This is the so-called "national system maintenance".
The soldiers also want to protect their status and even save their lives. Therefore, they proposed that additional conditions must be attached. That is, the National Defense Forces must agree not to station troops in Japan, and that the war criminals will be handed over to Japan for trial.
Otherwise, they would rather fight than surrender. What they knew was that they were already the mortal enemy of the National Defense Force. Just look at the consequences of the Japanese generals who fought with the National Defense Force in the past.
Their fate will not be much better than those people, and they may even be humiliated to death by the Wehrmacht. And this is their only chance. If they missed this opportunity, they will not have any future.
The cabinet formed by Nishiyuanji was struggling to form a deadlock at the first meeting. Fortunately, at least the military put forward its own conditions instead of implementing its own ideas behind their backs. This may be the only gain from Nishiyuanji after the meeting was held.
"You mean, General Ananda and the others are unwilling to give up their ideas, right?!" Nishinoji asked Suzuki Kantaro in front of him with a wry smile.
The latter nodded and bowed deeply to Nishiyuanji and said softly: "I'm sorry! Suzuki feels deeply ashamed of failing to fulfill the instructions from His Majesty and you..."
"It's not your business. After all, the radicals in the military are too arrogant. We have given them too many rights, and we have not supervised them in place..."
Nishiyuanji smiled bitterly. Now he is extremely helpless. It is obvious that the military headquarters does not want them to withdraw from the stage of history after the war. These soldiers are still thinking about what they can leave behind.
But is it possible?! With their actions, the tiger will definitely not allow Japan to continue its military presence. The only fate of those soldiers is to be cleaned up by the tiger.
If Japan tries to refuse such cleaning, the tiger will clean up without hesitation and the millions of troops under the tiger will determine that he can carry out the plan.
"I'll go to the palace to meet His Majesty. Maybe this matter has come to the time when His Majesty has to come forward in person..." Nishienji was silent for a while, and waved to Suzuki Kantaro.
"I believe that Your Majesty also hopes to end the war as soon as possible. At least in this way, we can preserve a trace of vitality for this country..."
After hearing this, Suzuki Kantaro stood up, bowed deeply, and slowly left the study room of Nishinoji. Then Nishinoji changed his clothes and prepared a car, and quietly went to the palace.
At 6 a.m. the next day, the current Japanese Prime Minister, Kantaro Suzuki convened a meeting of guidance for the Supreme War. When the two sides were quarreling again, Kantaro Suzuki proposed to convene an imperial meeting.
Report the situation here directly to Emperor Hirohito, and then Hirohito "sacred" it. Suzuki's proposal was agreed, and even if Anan and others were unwilling to do so, they had to agree to do so.
When everyone rushed to the basement of the Imperial Library in the palace, they found that Hirohito had been waiting here for a long time. Seeing Hirohito's face, Anan and others couldn't help but feel a little shocked.
"I already know this. Although the empire has been fighting for the past, the military and civilians are brave and powerful. This is not a crime of war, but it is not given to me at the time, and it is not given to the empire at the time..." After the statements between the two sides, Hirohito slowly used his so-called "yuyin" to the civil and military ministers.
The Japanese used by Hirohito is different from the general Japanese. There are many difficult words in the words, and if translated, it is more like classical Chinese.
Although Hirohito's answer was smelly and long, a bunch of modifiers were still piled up. But these senior Japanese civil and military officials still had to listen patiently.
Because this is the rule of the Japanese royal family. Hirohito has this right in such meetings. Of course, Hirohito doesn't care about this when he is mad. He just starts to scold.
"...Although the times are in a hurry, I want to endure what I want to endure and what I can't stand, so that I can open peace for all ages." A long and smelly word finally finished, and Hirohito left without stopping.
He left behind the civil and military ministers who were still stunned. Hirohito understood his words very clearly. That is: unconditional surrender. Since, any conditions proposed by the National Defense Forces must be accepted. This is "I cannot bear it and cannot bear it, so as to bring peace to all ages."
"His Majesty Anan, Your Majesty has made a holy decision. Do you have any objections?!" Suzuki Kantaro asked the Army Minister Anan Weiji, Deputy Minister of Military Order Taketo.
"Your Majesty has been sacred, and I will definitely execute it..." Anan's mouth was bitter. He always hoped that he could die like Japanese martial saint Nogi Hinomi to complete the glory of a samurai.
Nogi Hinomi was Anan's father's friend. When Anan was a child, Heidi Nogi, who was the leader of the 11th Division, visited him and praised his kendo vigorously. From then on, Heidi Nogi became Dr. Anan's idol.
And Anan Weisheng, the son of Anan's son Lu Shi, was killed by the National Defense Force on the Chinese battlefield. Until now, there is no chance to find the bones.
"Then we will inform the Minister of the Neutral Kingdom and let them convey our opinions..." After a pause, Suzuki Kantaro said in a deep voice: "And our negotiator, Your Majesty has appointed the Lord Nishinoji..."
In order to make the negotiations go smoothly, the Japanese cabinet confirmed after discussion that it needed to inform all allies and announced its withdrawal from the Axis powers.
Subsequently, the Minister of the Swiss to Switzerland, and the Minister of the Sweden, Masashi Okamoto received orders from Japan. The Minister of the Swiss to Switzerland, Masashi Kase was responsible for notifying the United States and China, and the Minister of the Sweden, Masashi Okamoto was responsible for notifying the Soviet Union and the United Kingdom.
Subsequently, the news that Japan withdrew from the Axis powers and hoped that the Defense Force would restart negotiations caused a sensation in the world! All reporters rushed towards Japan, hoping to get first-hand news there.
At the same time, the morale within the Allied forces has been greatly boosted! This is the first Axis country in the period of war that has announced its withdrawal and proposed negotiations to surrender.
While sending the telegram, the Japanese side sent a special envoy with a handwritten letter from Nishizoji, hoping that the National Defense Forces could suspend operations and restart negotiations. The document was quickly handed over to Tu Mengben.
To be honest, I just captured Fukuoka, and Su Zongzhe and others were in the hearts of the victory. But the slaughter of the tiger did not agree, which made Su Zongzhe and others a little frustrated.
"First look at what the Japanese plan to give us. I just captured Fukuoka. The soldiers need to be trimmed, and the supply line will gradually be lengthened after the target is completed, so we need more preparations."
Tu Menghu smiled and persuaded: "Our Marines and Navy are not ready yet, otherwise we can even directly threaten Tokyo. Now is the time for us to make some adjustments."
After all the Huhu Tu said this, Su Zongzhe and others could only nod helplessly to express their agreement. Indeed, the Marine Corps is still integrating and practicing the battle to land in Tokyo.
At the same time, the Navy absorbed too many warships at once, which also made them unable to recover their combat capabilities for the time being. The number of warships increased, but the quality of the soldiers decreased.
Moreover, equip the captured aircraft carriers with new captains, carrier-based pilots and a large number of carrier-based aircraft. These are not something that can be accomplished in a short while.
Carrying a landing war against Tokyo is a good opportunity for naval integration. If you miss this opportunity, you will not know when to wait for the next large-scale landing war.
"Okay, I want to hear what the old guy in Xiyuan Temple is going to say," Yang Yuting shrugged and said, "To be honest, I still have a lot of expectations for this negotiation. After those idiots are dealt with by us, they will probably be much more honest. In this way, at least those radicals will know. They have no way out now."
Japan is indeed nowhere to go now, but the radicals have not given up on their own ideas. They are still thinking about moving forward, and of course they also know that the road ahead will eventually only be on the cliff.
"They are betraying! This is a crime!! They are betraying the empire, and the leader is the Nishinoji Temple who once contributed to the empire during the Meiji period!!"
In the headquarters of the Japanese Army Base Camp, more than ten people, including the head of the military department head, the head of the military department head, the head of the same class, the head of the same class, the head of the same class, the head of the same class, the head of the military department head, the head of the same class, the head of the military department head, the head of the same class, the head of the military department head, the head of the Hata Nakasaki and the head of the Hata Nakasaki gathered together.
They are the core figures of the Japanese army and naval radicals. Their only purpose now is to prevent Nishinoji from going to negotiate. This will convince the cabinet to implement the military mobilization plan they proposed.
"But what else can we do now?! The repeated defeats and failures have led to His Majesty's lack of confidence in us. And no one in the cabinet or base camp will support us..."
Colonel Araoshi Xinggong smiled wryly and said, "I have been to investigate General Anan several times. But the general did not express anything. He just said that he would obey His Majesty's orders..."
"Your Majesty has been blinded by those villains! Especially the Nishiyuanji Temple, which had experienced the gloriousness of the Meiji period, he used his tricks and weakness to confuse His Majesty. He insisted on fighting! Even continuous guerrilla warfare is our last chance to win!"
Military affairs clerk Masahiko Takeshita said with a huff: "We must do this now, even if no one supports us, we must continue to do it!"
"Taoshita, I have received a warning from Mr. Toyama." Kenji Hataakana was silent for a while before saying: "Mr. Toyama warned us not to interfere in this matter. Otherwise, he will deal with this matter in person..."
After hearing this, everyone stopped talking. No one knew better than them. His power in Japan can even be said to be greater than Hirohito.
Even if Hirohito falls, he may not fall. There are too many people who follow him to eat, and too many people who can sacrifice their lives for him. Whether it is the power on the outside or the power in the secret, he has a great influence.
Of course, unless Hirohito personally stated that he no longer trusted Toyama Man, his power would always be there. Those disciples who belonged to him believed that their leader was one of the people closest to Hirohito. In fact, the same is true.
"Toushanman..." Arayao gritted his teeth, but had no choice. As people inside the Army Department, they all knew how powerful Toushanman was.
It can even be said that several rebellious plots have him behind him. If he clearly expressed his opposition, then he and others would not dare to force him.
Toutan is not the one in the military headquarters. Once he says he takes action personally, he will not have any trouble. It is likely to cause harm to his family. At this point, Toutanman is easy to do so.
"If we can obtain the support of the heads of the base camp, then Toushan will not dare to do anything randomly!" After a while of silence, Takeshita said in a deep voice: "This is what we must do, even if the generals will not express their support to us clearly. But at least they can ensure the safety of our family..."
Arago Xinggong was silent for a while before saying to everyone: "Let's go and see General Anan first. He is the mainstay of our Emperor** people now. I believe he will provide us with support. At least... he will ensure the safety of our family..."
Military affairs clerk Masahiko Takeshita glanced at everyone. He was Anan Weiji's sister-in-law. Among them, he was the most qualified and had the most conditions to go to Anan Weiji to discuss this matter.
