As the punitive coalition forces marched north out of Shanhaiguan, the stubbornly resisting Kwantung Army was finally destroyed after only three months of lingering.

In this life, Prince Higashikuni Naruhiko was unable to escape the trial of war by relying on his royal status as he did in his previous life. He was forcibly tortured many times in the military camp by the defected Kwantung Army officers and soldiers until he became a pool of meat paste.

Seeing that the situation was hopeless, Empress Kōjun, Kuni-no-Miyako, and former Crown Prince Akihito, along with their mother and son and a group of their loyal servants, set themselves on fire in the former Imperial Palace of Manchukuo.

At this point, the Showa era completely bid farewell to the stage of history. The Heisei era, led by the former Prince Chichibu, now Emperor Heisei, officially came into being.

After annihilating the Kwantung Army, the Japanese government, which was controlled by the Shimazu family, the Matsudaira family and other forces, did not delay at all and quickly left China, the quagmire of war that had left a deep impression on them.

The situation on the Asian battlefield has basically stabilized, but the situation on the European battlefield, without the support of the United States, is not as relatively smooth as in the previous life, and the international calls for Japan to send troops are getting louder and louder.

Britain, France and other countries hope that the Japanese, who have freed up their hands, will not be obsessed with peacekeeping operations in Australia, but should instead devote more energy and manpower to Europe.

Tokyo Bay, inside Yokosuka Port Naval Base.

"Everyone, something big has happened. The Allied forces in the European battlefield have been wiped out in an organized manner! And the culprit for this situation is determined by many parties to be a weapon of mass destruction - the atomic bomb!"

In the meeting room of the naval base headquarters, Shimazu Chinobu looked at the senior naval officers who were called up to attend the meeting in the middle of the night and announced a piece of news that instantly woke everyone up.

Zhou Ke happened to be at today's meeting. Although he had received the news before the meeting, he still felt a little at a loss.

The first thing Zhou Ke thought of after getting the news was the famous "Uranium Club", which was a club specially built by Deutsche Welle in 1939 with Heisenberg as the core to study atomic bomb engineering.

The club was a star-studded group of scientists, bringing together more than 100 of the top scientists in Europe at the time. However, due to various reasons in the previous life, the atomic bomb project was not successful until Germany was defeated in World War III.

And in this life, they not only succeeded, but also put it into use! What surprised Zhou Ke even more was that at this moment, a V-shaped rocket carrying a nuclear warhead was quietly lying in the system space in his mind.

If the atomic bomb and the V-shaped rocket were placed in front of him alone, he would not be so surprised, but the combination of the two is not as simple as one plus one equals two.

Zhou Ke didn't understand why the technology tree in this world progressed so fast. It was more than ten years ahead of the 'Thor Medium-Range Strategic Missile' developed by the United States in 1958!

"It seems that the large-scale use of weapons of mass destruction is inevitable, and the world is beginning to teeter on the brink of destruction!"

General Taikubo, who has always been averse to weapons of mass destruction such as atomic bombs, now looks worried.

"Mr. Taikubo, you should be thankful that we also have this kind of weapon, otherwise our country's current situation would not be much better than those countries that have been beaten!" General Saigo said somewhat dissatisfiedly.

"Under this circumstance, won't the situation on the European battlefield be reversed?" General Yamamoto, who was originally in Shanghai, asked with a frown.

"Not really, but if they want to defeat the Germans, the Allied countries such as Britain, France, and the Soviet Union must seek help from the Americans, who already have mature atomic bomb technology. Otherwise, they will be defeated again and again."

"Even if the production of this weapon is limited as our commander said before, the deterrent effect it brings will have a huge impact on the morale of the Allied Forces!" analyzed Ozawa Jirokuro, who accompanied Zhou Ke to the meeting.

"Osamu Ozawa's judgment is correct. Britain, France and other countries have already asked the Americans for help. They even sent us a letter for help!"

Shimazu Chinobu said this as he handed the two documents from Europe to everyone in the conference room for circulation.

"These politicians are a bit fanciful. Although we are now at loggerheads with the Axis Powers, we also have nothing to do with the Allied Forces!"

General Saigo couldn't help but feel a little amused when looking at the letter from the British Empire requesting assistance for weapons of mass destruction.

The letter stated that as long as Japan was willing to provide some weapons of mass destruction, they could lease many places currently under Japanese control, such as the Malay Peninsula, to Japan for free.

And depending on the conditions of the weapons of mass destruction, the right to use them can be up to 99 years. This is really a free-for-all.

"Marshal, has the Americans given any response regarding our request for assistance?" After reading the document, General Yamamoto turned his gaze to Shimazu Chinobu.

"The Americans have promised to help, and the British Prime Minister will make a special trip to the United States in the near future to discuss this matter."

"In addition, according to the information I received, the British Prime Minister will most likely come to our side after his visit to the United States," replied Shimazu Chinobu.

A week later, on a passenger ship from the United States to Japan, the British Prime Minister, who had just obtained eight weapons of mass destruction, looked out the window with a relaxed look at the Japanese ships that were escorting him not far away and the aircraft that were patrolling nearby.

After receiving aid from the United States, he is no longer as eager to get more aid from Japan as before. But as the saying goes, since you are here, you should take advantage of it.

"The Japanese have developed so rapidly in the past two years. I never expected their fighter aircraft technology to be so advanced!" exclaimed the British Prime Minister.

"Mr. Prime Minister, there is nothing strange about this. I don't know how they stole a lot of aircraft-related secrets from the United States!" said General Lawrence, who was sitting opposite the British Prime Minister.

"Really? That's such a pity!" Although the British Prime Minister expressed regret at this time, he felt something was wrong in his heart.

If he remembered correctly, the General Lawrence sitting opposite him should be the department responsible for supervising these secrets. Now that General Lawrence said this in front of an outsider like him, wasn't it tantamount to slapping the face of the United States?

"Mr. Prime Minister, you don't have to look at me like that. We will arrive at Tokyo Port in about an hour and forty minutes. If you have anything to say, just say it. There is nothing to worry about now!"

After taking a look at the scenery outside the window and the time on his watch, General Lawrence took out a wine flask, unscrewed the lid and began to drink from it in small sips.

"General Lawrence, what do you mean?" The British Prime Minister sitting opposite him felt something was wrong as he looked at General Lawrence, who looked somewhat different from before he boarded the ship.
