Under the coercion of Zhang Hua, Emperor Hirohito finally issued the Tokyo Armistice Edict, but there was never a shortage of pure militarists in Japan, and a large number of Tokyo citizens committed suicide by caesarean section in front of the Imperial Palace throughout the afternoon, which was a disappointment to the emperor and a kind of silent resistance. But in the face of the deterrence of thunderous guns and tanks and armored vehicles, more Tokyo citizens chose to remain silent, and those volunteers who were armed by Hideki Tojo also received the order to disband at the first time, and Breman's troops officially entered the city of Tokyo.

From the time the Jewish troops under Breman's command actually entered Tokyo, the three-day battle finally came to an end, but the once prosperous Tokyo had become a ruined place, and the casualties of more than 200,000 soldiers and civilians gave Konoe Fumima a headache. "Urging the fleet to speed up, now is a good time for us to enter the Japanese mainland, and if it is too late, it will change, and only when we have a complete grasp of the defense of the Japanese mainland can our plan be truly fully implemented." The Tokyo Armistice did not bring much joy to Zhao Zhi, and all this was still uncertain until the 200,000 reserve mercenary troops arrived in Japan.

Whether Zhao Zhi admits it or not, the moment Emperor Hirohito read the Tokyo Armistice Edict began, he had already become the most dazzling figure in 1943. Although Emperor Hirohito's edict declared an armistice was only aimed at Tokyo, in fact, the entire Japanese mainland had fallen into a situation of passive slack, with the 4th Division as an example, and Tojo Hideki's native division only symbolically resisted, and then surrendered to Zhao Zhi's Jewish troops, they had already died too many dead, and no one wanted to die at their own doorstep.

The capture of the Japanese emperor and the declaration of an armistice on home turf shocked all Allied leaders, including Stalin, Truman, Churchill, and Chiang Kai-shek. However, since Chiang Kai-shek had known the inside story for a long time, it was obvious that the Japanese were about to finish, and the thunderous initiative became the last straw that broke the camel's back, and it was time for a full-scale counteroffensive on the Chinese battlefield.

While the Japanese emperor and most of the dignitaries and cabinet members had become prisoners, and Emperor Hirohito's final battle was more meaningful, Zhao Zhi, as the supreme commander of the thunder, still did not agree with MacArthur's proposal for Japan's total surrender. Thunder now only controls the islands of Kyushu and Tokyo, and there are still a large number of militarists in Japan itself, and some clansmen also have armed forces in their hands, so if they push the emperor too hard, I am afraid it will backfire.

Of course, Zhao Zhi's reply to MacArthur was just his excuse, and Zhao Zhi really wanted to delay the landing of the main force of the US army on the Japanese mainland, because he needed time to relocate more industrial facilities in Japan. In any case, the Thunder is now in the lead, and Zhao Zhi needs to take advantage of this opportunity, otherwise the death of so many soldiers will become a joke, and Zhao Zhi will never allow the Americans to snatch the fruits of his victory.

Although Zhao Zhi had not yet achieved his final goal, at least the 200 kilograms of gold found from the palace were enough for him to pay for this expedition. Before boarding the landline back to the Philippines, Zhao Zhi closed his eyes and said to Luo Ying beside him tiredly, "Send a report to Tang Lei and start the relocation plan!" Zhao Zhi went to the Philippines to meet MacArthur, the commander of the US Pacific theater, and Zhao Zhi wanted to take the Thunder to the European theater to get a piece of the pie, and meeting MacArthur was a necessary step.

MacArthur, who was fighting the Japanese in the Philippines, had already received a telegram from Halsey, in which he said: The Chinese have achieved great success in Japan, but Zhao Zhi and his army, as the commander of the Chinese side, have a special plot against Japan. The plot of this hatred is extremely detrimental to their existence as a Japanese occupation force. General MacArthur, who has the title of four-star general of the US Army, naturally believed that only he and his brave troops were suitable for the role of the Japanese occupation force, so he proposed to Congress to transfer US troops to the Japanese mainland, and Zhao Zhi went to the Philippines to dispel this idea.

Halsey, who is purely a soldier, has not yet understood the true meaning of thunder, in his opinion, Zhao Zhi is simply an armed force made by the National Government to cover people's ears, in the end, Zhao Zhi still represents the interests of the Chinese, so he will send a telegram to MacArthur. MacArthur, who had already coveted Japan, would not let go of this great opportunity, when Halsey sent the telegram, he did not know that the content of his telegram had been revealed to Zhao Zhi by his subordinates, so Zhao Zhi was not a prophet with great magical powers, everything was just the credit of the banknotes.

Zhao Zhi is also slightly apologetic for the famous MacArthur in history who is still a four-star general, and the jumping combat focus and concentrated attack method has become the patent of the thunder, and the landing on the Japanese mainland has achieved his prestige, and MacArthur is still fighting with the Japanese army in the Philippines. In order to show his apology, Zhao Zhi could only prepare a gift and fly directly to the Philippines secretly, and he wanted to reach a secret agreement with MacArthur to give the Thunder troops stationed in the Japanese mainland enough time to carry out the relocation plan.

Although Zhao Zhi has coveted the post of commander of the Japanese occupation forces for a long time, in the face of the redivision of interests in the European theater, Zhao Zhi knows what he should want and what he should give up. A few hours later, Zhao Zhi secretly met the tall MacArthur in the Philippines, MacArthur can be said to be a dignified, majestic person, the military uniform is always straight, and the leather shoes are shiny, on the contrary, Zhao Zhi's dress looks a little casual.

But Zhao Zhi knew very well that this guy with a smile on the corner of his mouth and a corncob pipe in his mouth was a person with a wolf-like personality. He won as many battles in war as wolves caught, and although he did his losses, he used failed hunts as a means of honing his skills and increasing his desire for success. In the era of Zhao Zhi's previous life, some people once commented that he was a general who smiled at defeat and still moved forward.

In Zhao Zhi's books from his previous life, MacArthur was a man with an astonishing memory, and his conversations in informal settings were colorful. Be concise and to the point, never pausing to choose words or organize ideas. However, speeches in public are always carefully written, extraordinarily lengthy and flashy, and the structure of the sentences is complex and disorganized, monotonous and boring, giving people the impression of lacking a sense of humor and imagination. MacArthur was arrogant, hungry for praise and admiration, and on some occasions would often reach out for honor or covetousness.

Of course, MacArthur also has shortcomings, his biggest weakness is greed for money, which is almost a taboo for soldiers, MacArthur hollowed out his mind to build everywhere in the Philippines, the Filipinos are very grateful to this American general, only Zhao Zhi knows that MacArthur is looking for gold in the Philippines that does not exist at all. It was precisely because of MacArthur's fatal flaw that Zhao Zhi took the initiative to meet MacArthur, believing that the few boxes of antique porcelain and gold that landed at the US military airfield with the plane would satisfy MacArthur to the fullest.

In this abandoned hangar of the Japanese army, MacArthur saw a 1:1 scale gold statue of the same weight as his real person, pretending not to see MacArthur's distraction, Zhao Zhi said with a smile, "This statue uses a total of 126 kilograms of pure gold, which is the return of the Chinese people to the general for your spare efforts to fight the Japanese invaders in the Asian battlefield, and it is a symbol of friendship between us." MacArthur was surprised, his eyes never left the golden statue, and his greed was not hidden in his eyes.

In the ensuing conversation between the two, MacArthur said that if Congress agreed, he could appropriately postpone the deadline for landing on the Japanese mainland and give Zhao Zhi the necessary time. But as a matter of policy, he preferred to allow Japan to retain the emperor and to give dignity to generals who laid down their arms and ceased resistance, at least until trial. MacArthur made a point of emphasizing that he stubbornly believed that the Japanese emperor should be pardoned, which would be conducive to the consolidation of future rule over Japan.

Zhao Zhi did not make a statement in person, after all, it was China that was most ravaged by Japan, and before going to Chongqing to meet Chiang Kai-shek, Zhao Zhi could not make an effective commitment, and MacArthur, who had received the benefits, said that he could understand, after all, the Chinese died too many people in the battlefield war. Of course, Zhao Zhi is not a so-called nationalist, he is just trying to delay as much as possible, and Khanty's intelligence network in Europe has sent back a message that the German army plans to launch a strong attack on the American troops entering France this month, as long as it drags on for a week, Zhao Zhi believes that the US Congress will shift its attention to the European battlefield.

In order to land in Tokyo Bay, Zhao Zhi arranged for infiltrators on the Japanese mainland to attack the Japanese mainland airfields and facilities several times in a row, and paid a heavy price for this. The Americans only used a small fleet and 2,000 marines to carve up the benefits from the thunder's mouth, and there was no such thing in the world, so as long as Zhao Zhi tried to delay as much as possible and only waited for the situation in Europe to change dramatically, the Americans would have no time to take care of Japan's affairs.

Zhao Zhi knew very well what the plans he had formulated for Hitler at that time meant, as long as the current German army pressed forward step by step according to those plans, Stalin could only choose to unite with the United States, Britain and France or keep retreating. It is the dream of Americans to be recognized by the old European countries and to become a great power, and compared with the United States' war wealth and the layout of Europe, small Japan is nothing at all, so Zhao Zhi is sure to keep the fruits of Thunder's victory in Japan.
