Age of Rebirth

Facing the anger and roar of Japan's Minister of Finance, Kazumi Toyokawa, Emperor Hirohito was expressionless, but he felt a little impatient in his heart, "Speaking lightly, don't be coerced and blackmailed by that Chinese devil. The problem is that now, the empire has to If you accept this kind of blatant blackmail and coercion, if you categorically refuse it, it will not be tomorrow, and there will be overwhelming news that is unfavorable to the empire in major newspapers. Wouldn't the consequences be more serious if we fought against the British and American allies?"

"Okay, Aiqing Toyokawa, I understand the anger in your heart, and the same is true for several other love ministers. They can't wait to eat the flesh and skin of that Chinese devil, but anger can't solve the problem. This loss, the empire must suffer Go on, the question is how to do it and minimize the loss of the empire!" Hirohito comforted me gently.

At the same time, remind Toyokawa, don’t forget the theme, this gold must be taken out, but as little as possible, this is serious, you are scolding the world, does it work?

Toyokawa Kazumi was also dumb, and several other important ministers racked their brains to think. At this time, an attendant walked up to the Minister of War and Chief of the General Staff of the headquarters, Min Nei Koichi, and leaned over to whisper a few words. Min Nei Koichi was surprised. look. "Your Majesty, the head of the Operations Department of the General Staff Department of the Base Camp has an important situation to report to the minister. He is waiting outside the palace gate. The minister is apologizing. Please allow your Majesty to leave the table to deal with it!" Miuchi bowed and asked Emperor Hirohito for instructions. arrive.

Emperor Hirohito's sallow skin couldn't help twitching.There was a burst of upset for no reason, maybe there was not a single good thing recently, but bad things happened again and again.So much so that he was a little nervous, he stabilized his mind, and approved: "Miss Ai, military affairs are important, you go!"

Mi Neiguang followed the attendant out of the conference room in a hurry. For some reason, he panicked.The chief of the war department chased him to the palace to find him. It must be an extremely important military matter, on the Australian battlefield in the Southwest Pacific.Genzaburo Ito fought smoothly against the British and American allies, and he didn't have to worry about and ask questions at all. Then, it could only be the imperial Korean troops garrisoned in the evacuation of the Korean Peninsula.What happened?

After a few minutes.Several important ministers and Emperor Hirohito who were still arguing about the conditions put forward by Tang Qiuli saw that Miuchi had returned, but this guy's face was so pale that there was no trace of blood, his footsteps were erratic, his eyes were straight, Lips trembling.Walking into the meeting room like sleepwalking.There was a "click" in Yuren's heart.A bad feeling suddenly came to my heart, and I hurriedly asked: "Mi Nei Aiqing, what happened?"

Mi Neiguang's eyes were empty, his hands were trembling, and he said in a hoarse voice: "Return to Your Majesty, the Operation Department of the General Staff Headquarters of the base camp received a report from the Kyushu Island Homeland Defense Command. The formation of troop carriers stationed in North Korea was attacked by the independent division fleet and superior aviation forces in the waters from Tsushima Island to Oki Island in the Korean Strait!"

"From the commander, Major General Tanaka Shinichi, and the chief of staff, Major General Shinno Hikogoro, there were more than [-] imperial soldiers, none of whom survived, and all of them were shattered. Afterwards, the air defense fleet of Kyushu Island, the mainland of the empire, immediately rushed to the The rescue was also besieged by more than [-] fighter jets from the Air Force of the Independent Division, and more than [-] fighter jets were lost. Your Majesty, the Imperial Korean Garrison is completely over!"

Minai Koichi's movement was full of crying, "Push!" A mouthful of blood spurted out from Emperor Hirohito's mouth, "Kill me!" He yelled, from Manchuria to the Far East, and now there is North Korea On the peninsula, a series of blows made the sickness worse, and he was so anxious that he rolled his eyes and passed out.

Several ministers exclaimed, ran over in a hurry, rubbed their chests and beat their backs, and cried out repeatedly, some called doctors, some called attendants, and some called maids, turning the solemn place of the palace conference room , making a fuss, like a funeral.

"Uh!" With a long groan, Emperor Hirohito woke up from a coma under the rescue of doctors, looked at the large group of people around him blankly, and said weakly: "I know my body well in my heart. It’s a big problem, no one else is waiting to get back!”

The doctor, attendants, and maids retreated, and the rest of the room were the previous people, who knew that they had caused a catastrophe and almost killed His Majesty Minai, with tears in his eyes, he said: "Your Majesty, you I'm not in good health, it's all the minister's fault, I will take my leave, and I will come to the palace to discuss important matters after His Majesty recovers!"

Hirohito, who was in better spirits, shook his head and said: "The negotiation with Tang Qiuli has been delayed. Immediately send a telegram to Nagata Minjiang, agreeing to all the conditions of the Chinese devil, and the Ministry of Finance will start raising gold. Settle this matter, and in addition, the Ministry of the Army, together with the Ministry of Health and Welfare, will start immediately to compensate the fallen soldiers of the Kwantung Army, the Far East Expeditionary Army, and the Korean Garrison Army!"

"And publicly announced this matter in major domestic newspapers, and welcomed their spirits into the Yasukuni Shrine to appease the hearts of the people. However, the officers and soldiers of the Kwantung Army who surrendered are not included. They are not soldiers of our Great Japanese Empire, but The scum and traitor of the empire! Cough, cough, cough!" Because of excitement, Hirohito's pale face flushed sickly, and a violent cough interrupted his words.

Seeing several ministers rushing forward to care about him, Emperor Hirohito waved his hands in a dejected manner, and said, "Let's all disperse, each of you should perform your duties and do your duty, and you will share my worries!"

In the dead of night, in today’s diary, Emperor Hirohito wrote: “Today is the most painful day since I ascended the throne. Losing, this is an unprecedented huge loss for the empire, and it is also the most painful thing for me!"

"In this way, the empire lost the direct mineral resources and financial support of the two overseas colonies, which is extremely detrimental to the empire's current campaign in the Southwest Pacific. The empire has damaged millions of excellent soldiers, and the successor force is difficult to sustain. With the existing For this reason, it is possible to return to Manchuria and the Korean Peninsula, and the time is slim, and there is nothing to do! In my lifetime, can I see that the military boots of the soldiers of the Imperial Japanese Army set foot on Manchuria and the Korean Peninsula again? The land of the Korean peninsula?"

At this point, Emperor Hirohito has burst into tears. The reason why the empire suffered today’s losses and disastrous defeats is because of one person, the devil of China, Tang Qiuli. Therefore, at the end of the diary, he wrote with unforgettable hatred: "In my lifetime, I must find every opportunity to destroy that hateful Chinese and that inferior nation, both mentally and physically, as my only goal. Otherwise, I will exist in this world without a face!"

Putting down the diary, Emperor Hirohito felt a sense of relief after being exhausted. The former overseas colonies in the north would not have to be thought about in a short time. In this way, the empire could concentrate all its national power and concentrate on fighting against Britain and the United States on the Southwest Pacific battlefield. The Allied forces have been able to win control of the Pacific Ocean, as well as large tracts of land on many islands and rich resources. The Great Japanese Empire will definitely have the opportunity to fight that China devil again and regain everything that was lost!

Also, in the past, Japan opened up two battlefields at the same time and fought against several powerful opponents at the same time. Its national strength has reached an unsustainable level. Now, the overseas colonies in the north have no idea, and they have freed up their hands to deal with the British and American allies. , continue to maintain the advantage on the battlefield, and strive to end the Pacific War as quickly as possible. For Emperor Hirohito, is it a relief!

Northeast Fengtian, where the Japanese Magadan delegation for negotiating wounded soldiers is located, is a small hotel with poor conditions. Of course, Meixue, who has no good feelings for the Japanese and hates them to the core, will not provide high-quality accommodation for a few Japanese. Yes, from Mei Xue's point of view, this is already pretty good!

Nagata Toshie, the chief negotiator of Japan, took over the telegram translated by the translator, read it quickly, sat down on the bed, and said to several attendants: "His Majesty the Emperor ordered us to agree to all the proposals proposed by Tang Qiuli. Conditions, end the negotiation as soon as possible!"

The faces of several attendants showed humiliating anger unreservedly, and Nagata Minjiang was the same. Although he didn't know how much gold was in the empire's treasury, he knew that this time, the empire's treasury would be destroyed. Hollowed out, but at the same time, he also felt an inexplicable sense of relief in his heart, just like his Emperor.

From the bottom of his heart, Nagata Minjiang is absolutely unwilling to deal with Tang Qiuli. This hateful Chinese devil is simply the incarnation of a devil, a villain who does not play cards according to common sense. It works, dealing with him, I am always on the verge of collapse, that kind of torture is very understandable, Nagata Minjiang even has a feeling, if the negotiation is delayed indefinitely, will he be insane?

Therefore, after the negotiation is over, leaving this hostile place as soon as possible is not a relief for me, "Mr. Kitamura, please immediately notify the Chinese woman named Mei Xue, and tell her that His Majesty the Emperor of Japan agrees to their proposal." All the conditions that come out, request to meet with Tang Qiuli, resume negotiations, and sign relevant agreements, especially the documents that the empire paid 30 taels of gold to redeem more than [-] wounded soldiers in Magadan must be signed!"

An attendant gritted his teeth and said: "Chairman Nagata, what are you wasting your time with these inferior and shameless Chinese people? Is it necessary to sign any documents? This is a disgrace to the Great Japanese Empire. Don't tell me, Your Excellency still needs to use documents. Fixed?"

"Stupid!" Nagata Minjiang scolded, "Other documents are not important, but the document that the empire pays gold and redeems wounded soldiers must be signed!"

"Why?" Several attendants asked in bewilderment.
