When the Imperial Army took Tokyo, the Operational Command against Japan had already sent a good news to the Imperial High Command. This means that a decisive victory has been won in the war against Japan. Although, the battle will not end for a while and a half. However, the victory of the empire in this war is already a matter of ironclad.

Emperor Wu Haoxuan was also very happy when he learned the news. Japan, as the old enemy of the empire, was also the first enemy of the empire to be eliminated. After so many years of hard work, now it's finally good and it's done to this point.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty!" The military and political ministers of the empire expressed their congratulations to Wu Haoxuan.

"Haha! Everyone, rejoice and rejoice! This is not only a happy event for me personally, but also a happy event for everyone, but also a happy event for the entire empire. Wu Haoxuan said with a smile. After so many years of rebirth and hard work, I have finally accomplished an important goal.

After Wu Haoxuan was reborn in this era, he made three goals, the first is to build a strong China, the second is to destroy Japan and eliminate this old enemy, and the third is to defeat the United States and make China the world hegemon and the only superpower on the earth in the future. By now, he has accomplished two goals. The first goal is to make China a great power. Today, China has become one of the most powerful countries in the world. Moreover, its military strength is still the world's first. The second goal is to destroy Japan. As a person who has been reborn, Wu Haoxuan can't forget the suffering that Japan inflicted on China in another time and space. How many sins those Japanese have done on the land of China. In order to avoid a repeat of the tragedy, he must preemptively destroy Japan. Only in this way can China be saved from such a catastrophe. Of course, this is undoubtedly a bit unfair to the Japanese. However, no one cares about any of this.

As for the third goal, it is also the most important and at the same time the most difficult to achieve. Although, in the face of the United States, the empire occupies a considerable advantage in some aspects. Especially in the military field, the advantages of the army, navy and air force of the empire are obvious. However, the United States is the chosen nation. The blockade of the Pacific Ocean made it difficult for the empire's military doctrine to be projected to Japan. If it wants to defeat the United States, the empire must further strengthen its military strength. In addition, the industrial strength of the United States is also very strong. If its great industrial power is transformed into military power, then it will undoubtedly be more difficult for the Chinese Empire to defeat the United States. Moreover, the Western world is now very wary of the Chinese Empire. If the Chinese Empire rashly launched a war against the United States, the entire Western world would unite to wage war against China. At present, China does not have the capital to confront the entire Western world. Therefore, Wu Haoxuan is still waiting for the opportunity, waiting for the appearance of the-stirring stick. After the Führer appears and the whole of Europe is in ruins, the empire can concentrate on dealing with the United States. Wu Haoxuan believes that by that time, the strength of the empire should be able to defeat the United States.

"Your Majesty, the Imperial Army has captured Tokyo. Next, the Operational Command against Japan will have Emperor Taisho continue to issue orders for those troops in the northern part of the island of Honshu, as well as those in Hokkaido. And the armies of the recalcitrant resistance surrendered to us. In the minds of those Japanese, the emperor is completely like a god. By using this method, we will be able to easily wipe out the resistance of the Japanese. Chief of the General Staff, Marshal Shi Tianhan, reported.

"Hmmm! The Emperor of Japan is a very good card, and we have to work hard to squeeze his value. Only by eliminating the resistance of those Japanese can we control Japan as we want, and transform Japan according to our requirements, so that Japan can become a puppet under our control. Wu Haoxuan said. Defeating Japan is only the first step, and transforming Japan is the most important step. Only if the transformation is successful, then it means that the empire has achieved ultimate success.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Marshal Shi Tianhan nodded.

"Gentlemen, about Japan, everyone is talking about it, what are we going to do with them?" Wu Haoxuan asked. Although, he already has a plan. However, I still want to brainstorm and listen to everyone's opinions.

"Your Majesty, Japan has a large population, more than 50 million people, and belongs to one of the great powers of the world. At the same time, Japan has a strong industrial base and is very close to the empire. As a result, Japan could easily become the great enemy of the empire. If we want to remove Japan's threat to the empire, we must find a way to take full control of Japan. Otherwise, I am afraid that it will not be long before Japan threatens us again. Prime Minister Yang Du said.

Wu Haoxuan nodded, it is indeed like this. The Japanese are paranoid, and if you can't reform them and make them submit, it will be a big problem. In particular, the goal of the empire is to compete for world hegemony, and it will soon compete with the Western powers for world hegemony. When the time comes, the energy invested by the empire in Japan will gradually decrease. A Japan that is controlled by the empire and subject to the empire can become a power for the empire to dominate the world. And if Japan turns into a quagmire, it will hold back a lot of the empire's power.

After all, Japan has a large population, and its people are also suitable for military service. If the size of the standing army of the other vassal states of the empire was adopted, Japan would have formed a standing army of 800,000 men. In the event of war, this figure could more than triple again. In addition, the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army is generally relatively strong, and it is undoubtedly better if they go to the battlefield to be cannon fodder. Of course, if Japan is completely in chaos, it will take a lot of energy for the empire to evaluate the rebellion.

"Your Majesty, the minister proposes to introduce military control in Japan. In order to be able to completely eliminate the anti-Chinese forces and ensure the control of the empire over Japan. War Minister Marshal Zhao Xifu said.

"If we are in charge of the military, then we will have to deploy a large number of troops in Japan. In that case, will the price we pay too great? Foreign Minister Tang Shaoyi was a little worried.

"The wool comes from the sheep, and since we have defeated the Japanese, according to the custom, we have to ask the Japanese to cede the land and pay compensation. Let the Japanese cede a piece of land to us. In addition, to compensate us for the sky-high war reparations, it is best to let the Japanese repay them for dozens or hundreds of years. In this case, all the expenses are covered. Don't worry about it at all. Admiral Sa Zhenbing said.

"Haha, that's a good idea! Let little Japan cede a major island to us, such as Kyushu. In this case, Japan's strength will be greatly damaged. In addition, let them compensate us with 10 billion Chinese dollars. Marshal Zhao Xifu said with a smile.

Before the outbreak of the war, Japan's annual fiscal revenue was only more than 2 billion yen (less than half compared to another time and space, mainly due to the loss of Chinese colonies and then the suppression of the Chinese Empire), which was only about a billion Chinese dollars when converted into Chinese dollars. After the end of this war, its financial revenues will plummet by more than half again. If you expect them to repay the Empire's huge war reparations, it will probably take a long time. But isn't that exactly what the Empire wants to see?

"Your Majesty, the influence of the Japanese Emperor in Japan is really too great. This can be seen from the Battle of Tokyo. Under the orders of Emperor Taisho, those murderous Japanese soldiers took the initiative to lay down their arms and surrender. If this is not the case, we will probably have to pay a greater price if we take Tokyo, with more people killed and more supplies consumed. Deputy Chief of the General Staff and Chief of Operations General Jiang Baili said.

Wu Haoxuan nodded: "That's right, the influence of the Japanese emperor is too great. As long as the Emperor of Japan existed, he would be a threat to the Empire. So, after Emperor Taisho has been squeezed out of use, we need to find a way to eliminate his influence in Japan. The best thing to do is to put Emperor Taisho on trial in Japan and then execute him in public. In Japan, the emperor is a god-like being. If even the emperor had to be tried or even executed, what an impact it would have on those Japanese! ”

"Your Majesty, this is a good solution!" Yang Du also said.

"Other than that, we can't militarize Japan for a long time. For example, in five years, the military control of Japan will be ended. When the time comes, we will make Japan a normal country. However, it must be a pro-China country. We can change the name of Japan, for example, to call it Fuso Kingdom. The title of Emperor of Japan was also abolished, and it was better to be called the King of Japan just like other vassal states. In this way, the influence of the Japanese emperor will gradually be eliminated. Our grip on Japan will also become stronger and stronger. Wu Haoxuan continued.

The ministers nodded their heads again and again, and they also thought that this was undoubtedly a good way to deal with Japan.

"Your Majesty, Crown Prince Hirohito has fled, and it is very likely that he will be left by the Americans. If it formed a government-in-exile in each of them, it would be a threat to the Empire. Tang Shaoyi said.

"In this matter, the diplomatic department can protest to the Americans and ask the Americans to hand over Hirohito to us. Still, I don't think the Americans will agree. If we want to solve this problem, we can only wait for the defeat of the United States in the future. Wu Haoxuan said.

"Your Majesty, we may be able to send intelligence agents to get rid of Hirohito." General Chen Xudong, director of the Military Intelligence Bureau, said.

"The MIA can try this. However, the Americans will definitely protect Hirohito, and it will not be so easy for us to succeed. Wu Haoxuan said. (To be continued.) )
