At present, the ownership of the Japanese Imperial Palace and other governments and military agencies is unified under the post-war maintenance department of the Northeast Defense Forces.

After half an hour of talks with Mine Mitsumasa, Chen Wu agreed that Mine Mitsumasa would continue to serve as prime minister of Japan's interim government. On the representatives who accepted unconditional surrender, Chen Wu rejected the Japanese Prime Minister or Chief of Staff of the Military Affairs Department.

The side proposed to firmly demand that the Japanese Emperor surrender unconditionally to him as the commander of Japan.

The whole of Japan is worried about whether Emperor Showa will be listed as a war criminal by the Northeast Defense Forces. In order to avoid this, whether Emperor Showa or the Japanese Chief of Staff Prince Minorhiko Hiroshimaki and Interim Prime Minister Mitsumasa, they are actively asking for forgiveness.

In the past half month, Emperor Showa's first thing every morning was to walk to the Northeast Defense Forces General Command to visit General Chen Wu, but these things have little significance. As we all know, the privilege of deciding on this matter

In the hands of His Majesty the Emperor.

Although the whole of Japan seems to have a strong desire to not allow the emperor to be included in the trial seat in any case, Japan seems very peaceful after the war is basically over. The war investigation team sent by the Central Military Department has arrived in Tokyo two days ago.

, began to receive and investigate various Japanese official records to confirm the list of all war criminals to be tried.

According to His Majesty’s proposal, the final military trial court will be set up in Seoul, with judges from many countries appointed by the Asian League to be responsible for the operation of the international court and the final determination of the specific crimes and punishments of Japanese war criminals.

For Japan, the past half month was their most humiliating and peaceful half month. The whole of Japan was far away from war, and the war compensation they had to bear would be destined to be an astronomical figure.

It's all over.

After witnessing the demise of Japan across the coast of Vladivostok, Emperor Song Biao returned to Beijing on a special plane and began to truly deal with various post-war matters.

On the day he returned to the Central Palace, he received a copy of the "Japanese Unconditional Surrender Edict" submitted by the Central Defense and Military Commission. This announcement will be sent to the world by the Japanese Showa Emperor himself in two days. After that,

The Showa Emperor will also formally abdicate and be subject to the supervision of the Military War Criminals Administration.

No matter how the Japanese planned this matter, the will of the empire was firm and unshakable. The Japanese emperor system must be ended. Whether it should be dealt with as a war criminal will be left to be discussed in the future.

The Sino-Japanese War and the Sino-Soviet War were basically over, and the only opponents that needed the imperial considerations were Britain and Germany.

It was already very late, and the one-day flight made Song Biao feel a little tired, but he still took time to deal with the matter at night.

The "Japan Unconditional Surrender Edict" has been revised three times. In addition to the reasons for various revisions by China, Japan has also proposed several corrections, but their opinions are basically invalid.

The announcement submitted to Emperor Song Biao was transferred to the Japanese delegation before it was sent. The Japanese side still requested many objections emphasized in the past several times, because the amendments put forward by Japan will eventually be able to be finalized by these amendments put forward by Japan.

The key to getting China's permission depends on whether Song Biao can accept it.

Japan has raised many objections at present, and tens of millions of them are gathered at one point, that is, it is hoped to adopt the "Japanese Armistice Decree" drafted by Japan, and the "Armistice Decree" by Japan. Song Biao has seen two versions, although he was directly from the beginning.

After rejecting this matter, Japan still worked very hard and did not work hard and revised the second draft and submitted it to him.

There is no difference between the two versions, but nothing more than "I take it as my mission to liberate the Kingdom of Korea and want to promote peace in Asia... The whole country is united, the country will last forever, and the country will never die... I vow to carry forward the essence of the national system and not fall behind the world's culture,

You and other subjects will comprehend my intentions”.

If you say a thousand words, Japan just doesn't admit that it is the initiator of the war. In the words of Minumasa, this war is a responsibility for both China and Japan.

fart.

Looking back at the time before the war, although China asked Japan to give North Korea a chance to **, it did not have any plans to take military action on the Korean Peninsula, nor did it make any statement in this regard. The outbreak of the third Sino-Japanese War was entirely Japan.

In order to ensure colonial rights against North Korea, he ventured into the Sandu Ao Naval Base in China.

Now that is the case, Japan still refuses to admit its mistakes, it just refuses to admit that it takes the initiative to provoke a war.

Two words to evaluate Japanese and Japanese - shameless.

The "Japanese Surrender Decree" drafted by the Imperial Central Cabinet for the Japanese Emperor Showa is much stricter. First, it recognizes that Japan launched a war to seek colonial rights on the Korean Peninsula. Second, it recognizes that Japan is the initiator of the chemical warfare. Emperor Showa personally signed it.

With this order, as for the words "the enemy uses cruel bombs to kill innocent people", they will definitely not be hired.

The "Japanese Surrender Edict" submitted by the cabinet is very upheld by principles and does not care about Japan's various quibblings. Gu Weijun, who participated in the drafting work, has signed the drafting of the edict.

After carefully studying the full text of the edict of more than 500 words, Song Biao thought about it alone in the imperial study room for a long time, and finally signed his own opinion - "If you don't agree, continue to fight", and then shouted Jiang Shoulin who was accompanying the door.

Come over and ask him to immediately send the draft of the reviewed edict back to the central cabinet, so that the cabinet can adhere to China's requirements.

If Japan does not admit surrender, it will continue to fight and eliminate all Japan's resistance forces.

It was already late at this time, and Chen Jin happened to come to see him and sent the central government's post-war financial report. When the war was over, the accounts must be settled clearly.

Seeing that Chen Jin had already come, Song Biao asked him to sit down and wait for a while, and he opened the post-war financial report and reviewed it carefully.

After reading only about half of it, Song Biao had to admit that the ancients' words were true and empirical. As the saying goes, "Although a country is strong, it will perish if it is wary." Of course, this statement is more suitable to describe the Great Japanese Empire.

The financial strength of the central government of the empire is unparalleled throughout the world, and no government in other countries can compare with each other. Even so, after the end of the two wars between China and Japan and China and the Soviet Union, the huge military expenditure of the central government also made the empire.

Has been under a lot of pressure.

Driven by the prosperity of war, the empire's current GDP has just exceeded 300 billion yuan, about 1.8 times that of the United States. The total national tax revenue in 1940 was 53.54 billion yuan, and the total central government's total tax revenue was 32.26 billion yuan.

Circle, central state-owned assets domestic and foreign investment income (including state-owned assets shares sold by the four major national trust companies) RMB 11.853 billion, net increase in treasury bonds (newly sold treasury bonds minus total cashed out of maturing treasury bonds) RMB 4.275 billion, central

The state held 1.75 billion yuan in shares, and the total revenue of the central government was 48.388 billion yuan in shares.

In the same year, the total expenditure of the central government also reached 48.13 billion yuan, national defense and military expenditures were 13.25 billion yuan, accounting for 2.753 of the actual total expenditure, and 10.74 billion yuan of education expenditures, accounting for 22.3 of the actual total expenditures. Scientific research and scientific institutions

Total expenditure is 5.57 billion yuan.

Among all expenditures, the most important ones are education funds and defense military expenses. Education expenses are fixed every year. In peacetime, the normal annual expenditure is usually 10 of the total revenue of the central government, that is,

About 4.5 billion yuan.

In the past three years, in order to make up for the additional 6-7 billion military expenditures compared with previous years, and to ensure central expenditures for other normal matters such as education, scientific research, agricultural subsidies, infrastructure, etc., the central government has been forced to sell more national debts

, and the four major national asset trust companies sell corporate shares held by the central government and fixed assets at home and abroad.

Over the past three years, the central government sold a large amount of domestic and foreign assets, cashing out a total of 21.55 billion yuan in cash, and sold an average of about 7 billion yuan in assets each year to maintain the fiscal balance of the central government.

Before the outbreak of the Third Sino-Japanese War, the central government held a total of overseas debt and domestic and foreign trust assets through four major national trust companies. With the depreciation of assets and the reduction of asset sales and asset sales, it reached 1941

In April 2019, the total amount of overseas debts and trust assets of the central government and the total amount of domestic and foreign trust assets had dropped to RMB 98.575 billion.

Although the imperial central government is still the richest government in the world around the world, it is indeed a big discount compared to 1937.

If we continue to fight on this scale, after seven or eight years, the huge surplus assets accumulated by the central government over the past thirty years will be gone. So like Britain, before the outbreak of World War I, the United Kingdom

It is definitely the richest country and government in the world. After World War I and World War II, it is also full of debt and relying on the relief of the United States to live like a year.

Even if the country is strong, it will perish if it is wary.

This is not false.

Of course, the huge military expenditure has maintained its current state of great military equipment and overall level. Taking the Imperial Army as an example, before the war, the Imperial Army had a total of 14,000 tanks, of which two thousand were included.

Many of them were left behind during the Sino-Soviet War and can only be used for daily training. Today, the total number of tanks in the Imperial Army is 175,500, an increase of 12.5 times.

Before the war, the Imperial Army had 200,000 military trucks of various models. After the war, this number expanded to 1.54 million. When the army chiefs were roughly equivalent, the number of trucks in the Nazi German army was only 2/3 of that in the Empire.

, and the number of infantry armored vehicles, armored reconnaissance vehicles and self-propelled artillery of the Imperial Army is far more than that of the German Army, which shows the degree of mechanization of the Imperial Army.

Taking the Imperial Air Force as an example, before the war, the Imperial Air Force had only 1,700 large and medium-sized military transport aircraft and patrol aircraft. By April 1941, the Imperial Air Force had a total of 33,000 aircraft, of which the output of the S-15/110 series large transport aircraft was only

More than 10,000 aircraft, known as the king of the Imperial Transporter, has a transportation capacity of 3.5 tons, which is rated to be an air train.
