Siheyuan: Married a female spy at the beginning of 1944

Except for some Japanese who have illusions, most rational Japanese actually already know the result.

In other words, most Japanese know what their country will face in the future.

Before Germany surrendered, some people still fantasized that the United States would negotiate and compromise with them because it could not bear the casualties.

But after Germany surrendered, most people knew that Japan’s end was just a few days away.

This is also why the Japanese were able to accept the result so quickly after the Emperor announced his surrender.

Because they knew clearly that there was no other choice but to surrender.

It’s just that the shackles of education over the years have made them dare not talk about surrender. To them, whoever talks about surrender is a traitor to the country.

"Well, can we negotiate with them, just like Italy?"

“Italy, haha, that’s because their main enemy at the time was Germany, and they could accept Italy’s surrender at that time.

It is also because they want to reduce their own casualties.

But what about now? Whether it is the Soviet Union or the United States, they are overwhelming us. What conditions do we have to make them interested? "

Miyauchi also wanted to surrender conditionally.

Now Ryukyu has been conquered by the US military.

The Japanese headquarters were about to be reached, and at this time, the Japanese navy and air force had been almost wiped out.

As long as the United States continues to bomb Japan with bombers and shell Japan with warships.

If this continues for half a year, Japan will completely collapse and there will be no need to send the army to fight a positional war with the Japs.

Japan's only reliance is Manchuria's resources and industry.

But given the current situation, they feel that there is a high probability that they will not be able to defend Manchuria.

In just half a year, Shandong, Henan and Hebei were gone.

He estimated that if the war continued, most of China would be liberated within a year at most.

By then, even if Manchuria was in hand, it would be impossible to resist the Chinese and American armies.

"Are we just going to accept surrender unconditionally? What's the difference between us and the fish on the chopping block?"

"At this point, we have no choice. If we had not attacked Pearl Harbor, there might still be a chance for peace talks.

The United States, now enjoying a great victory, will definitely not let us off so easily.

The same is true for the Soviet Union. We won the war against Russia, but now the Soviet Union will definitely retaliate against us."

Sifang Lianger saw it very clearly.

As a senior Japanese adviser, he has a very clear understanding of Japan's strength.

I also know the industrial gap between Japan, the Soviet Union, and the United States.

In his opinion, the Japanese people are extremely excellent, but the land they live on is too bad.

If the Japanese could occupy Manchuria, given 50 years, they would definitely be able to compete with the United States and the Soviet Union.

Even if the July 7 Incident had not occurred, they could have just focused on managing Manchuria and Korea.

Then Japan must also be a world power.

Both fell silent.

Facing the future, both of them lost confidence.

"report"

"Come in"

"Sir, the Eighth Route Army has arrived and they want to see you."

Sifang Liangji looked inside the palace.

“Let them wait in the reception room. Gongnei, you go and receive them first and see what they are here for.

Remember, have a good attitude.”

The palace didn't know why the Eighth Route Army came.

But now he doesn't dare to provoke the Eighth Route Army.

In the past, anyone suspected of being part of the Eighth Route Army would be tortured immediately. Now, even if they are confirmed to be part of the Eighth Route Army, they can only escort them out of the city with courtesy.

Or be imprisoned with good food and drink.

The Japanese troops are now very honest and are even more polite towards the civilians in Peking.

Entering the reception room, Gong Nei saw Tanya.

He knew Tanya and had gone to her place for dinner many times before.

Now seeing that Tanya was actually a soldier of the Eighth Route Army, he was stunned for a moment, then looked at Tanya with some anger.

"Ms. Tan, I never expected that it would be you. Long time no see."

"Mr. Miyauchi, you didn't expect this one thing, there are many more things you didn't expect."

Seeing Gong Nei's unfriendly expression, Tanya didn't hesitate.

"Ms. Tan, please take a seat. Bring me some tea. Is there anything else I haven't thought of?"

After Tanya sat down, she straightened her clothes and spoke slowly.

"The entire city of Baoding has surrendered, and now there are only two isolated cities left in North China: Tianjin and Beijing.

We are also in contact with Tianjin. If nothing unexpected happens, they will surrender in two or three days.

I wonder what Mr. Miyauchi thinks of this matter?"

Gong Nei was shocked, he also knew that their isolated cities would not be able to resist for long.

But what I didn’t expect was that the people in Baoding actually surrendered directly without even a fight.

"How do I see it? At most, I will be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor. Miss Tan, what is the matter with your visit to Peking this time?"

Seeing Gong Nei pretending to be ignorant even though he knew the truth, Tanya smiled.

"Mr. Miyauchi, I know that there are some things that you cannot decide, you can send a message to your boss.

Let's just say that our Eighth Route Army treats prisoners well. Now there are 100,000 of your troops in our prisoner-of-war camps. If you are worried about their situation, you can send someone to check on them."

The number of Japanese soldiers captured by the Eighth Route Army is now very large.

He Daqing captured about 7 prisoners, while Commander Qin and other military divisions captured nearly prisoners.

These prisoners were both a burden and a resource for the Eighth Route Army.

Under the threat of force, most Japanese are willing to listen to some reason.

Moreover, most of these were relatively young recruits, and the war crimes they committed were not particularly serious.

As for those whose crimes were extremely serious, the Eighth Route Army directly executed them by firing squad after holding public trials.

If it were in the past, the Eighth Route Army might not have treated the Japanese prisoners like this.

The main reason is that there are too many prisoners of war in the Eighth Route Army, and they are now too many to support.

These 10 Japanese prisoners brought unprecedented pressure to the Eighth Route Army's logistics.

As a last resort, they had to reorganize these people into logistics troops and let them build roads and reservoirs.

During the busy farming season, sowing and autumn harvesting are also carried out.

Although 10 people is a huge number, it is acceptable if they are dispersed throughout the North China region.

The support of these 10 men posed a certain obstacle to the expansion of the Eighth Route Army.

"Prisoners? We, the soldiers of the Empire of Japan, do not take prisoners. As for those people you mentioned, they are no longer soldiers of our Empire."

Miyauchi was stimulated by Tanya's words.

Before, the relationship between them and the Eighth Route Army was like cat and mouse, and they were the cats.

Now the situation was reversed, they were actually mice. He couldn't accept it for a while.

It's like your high school dropout classmate becomes a world-class mathematician when you meet him/her. It's hard for you to accept it.
