Chapter 1021: Inspecting Japan

Hirohito, who was only 23 years old, succeeded to the throne in the United States and became the 124th emperor of Japan, changing his name to Showa. However, the Japanese did not react much to Hirohito's becoming Emperor Showa. At present, Japan is still under China's military control. For the vast majority of Japanese people, the emperor is no longer supreme. It doesn't matter who becomes the emperor, what matters is that there will be no more emperors in Japan in the future.

The Japanese seem to have accepted this reality, and the emperor has fallen from the altar. The Japanese now focus on their own lives, when they will be able to eat enough, when they will be able to eat meat, and so on. In any case, even if Hirohito became Emperor Showa, he would not be able to change the fact that Japan was occupied by China. As for the Japanese who refused to accept this fact, most of them were already dead. The few remaining ones were also frightened, and they could only clamp their tails and be human, so as not to lose their lives.

Emperor Showa was devastated when he learned from intelligence agents that even if he became emperor, he would not be able to arouse the will of resistance of the Japanese. He knew that the Chinese plan had succeeded. As the emperor, his influence in Japan will continue to decline. It won't be long before the Japanese may even forget about his existence as an emperor. Emperor Showa could only scold the Chinese Empire, and it was the Chinese Empire that ruined all this. Of course, he could only scold a few words. Other than that, there is no other way.

Emperor Showa prayed to Amaterasu that war would begin between China and the United States as soon as possible. Then, the United States had the courage to defeat China in the war, so that he would be able to return to Japan and establish a state. However, to the disappointment of Emperor Showa, although relations between China and the United States were tense, no war broke out. When the war really broke out, it was more than a decade ago. More than a decade later, Japan has long been transformed by China. The Japanese identified with the Chinese Empire, even surpassing him, the emperor. The emperor in Japan has little influence anymore. What was even more unacceptable to Emperor Showa was that the United States was defeated in that war more than a decade later. Therefore, Emperor Showa could only choose to end his life with a cup of poisoned wine. He knew that if he didn't do that, the Americans wouldn't mind giving China a gift when they sued for peace. For him, that's the real insult.

Of course, it's too early to say that. war, more than a decade away from now. The Chinese Empire was not ready. Therefore, China deliberately postponed the outbreak of war. This was undoubtedly fatal to Emperor Showa, who longed for the early outbreak of war.

Time passed slowly, and half a year passed in the blink of an eye. In November, Yanjing is the time of high autumn and crisp weather. It has been a year since the end of the war against Japan. In the course of a year, the situation in Japan has changed dramatically. Under the military control of the empire, these Japanese seem to have been honest. Of course, they had to be honest. If they weren't honest, they wouldn't even be able to save their lives.

Wu Haoxuan always remembered his promise to Marshal Shi Tianhan, the imperial governor in Japan, and promised that he would go to Japan to inspect one year after the governor's palace. Although, it has not been long since Japan has just been pacified, and it seems that there are still some dangers. But Wu Haoxuan didn't think that he could pose much of a threat to him, the emperor. What's more, Wu Haoxuan, who has been a *** silk in another time and space all his life, has the same idea as most men. That is, to go to Japan and those Japanese women hard, which can be regarded as winning glory for the country.

Although Wu Haoxuan is the emperor of the empire, in his bones, those *** habits can't be removed. As the saying goes, three generations breed one nobleman. Although Wu Haoxuan is not the founding emperor of the empire. But in essence, the meaning is similar to this. Wu Haoxuan gave up anyway, he knew that no matter how hard he tried, he would not become a person with the temperament of a so-called emperor. This glorious and arduous task was simply handed over to his children and grandchildren, and he should just be himself.

A year after the end of the war against Japan, some adjustments were made to the internal structure of the empire. The Chief of the Imperial General Staff, Marshal Shi Tianhan, retired. However, when he retired, Wu Haoxuan promoted him to the rank of Imperial Marshal. Marshal Zhao Xifu, Minister of War, also retired, and when he retired, he was also promoted from Field Marshal to Imperial Marshal. The commander of the Navy, Marshal Cheng Biguang, also retired, and at the age of 60, his health was not very good. At the time of his retirement, he was promoted from Marshal of the Navy to Marshal of the Reich.

Also promoted from military marshal to imperial marshal were Governor General in Japan Shi Deshan and Navy Minister Sa Zhenbing. The two of them, also with the rank of Imperial Marshal, continued to hold important positions. Marshal Shi Deshan needless to say, he is only sixty years old, plus he was born in the army and is in good health, so there is no problem at all if he works for a few more years. The Empire's military control over Japan had only just begun. In the next four years, he will still be needed. In this way, it will be possible to ensure that the transformation of Japan by the empire can continue to develop according to plan. As for Marshal Sa Zhenbing, although he is two years older than Marshal Cheng Biguang. However, his health is much better than that of Marshal Cheng Biguang. In another time and space, Marshal Sa Zhenbing lived to be ninety-three years old. Now, he is only sixty-five years old.

The vacated positions of the retired marshals were also filled by the junior generals. General Jiang Baili, promoted to field marshal, became chief of the general staff. Admiral Ishiyama was promoted to Field Marshal and became Minister of the Imperial Army. General Cai Songpo, who took over as commander of the 1st Army of the Imperial Army. General Zhang Yunnong, who took over as Chief of Operations of the Imperial General Staff. As for the navy, the post of commander of the navy is no longer established. Under the Admiralty, it was directly divided into the Pacific Fleet and the South Sea Fleet. In addition, there are aircraft carrier formations that belong only to the Admiralty. In addition, General Chen Xudong, director of the Imperial Military Intelligence Bureau, was finally promoted to the rank of Imperial Field Marshal as he wished. There are also some generals who have been promoted. However, there has been no change in the position.

On November 8, 4622, Emperor Wu Haoxuan summoned Yang Du, Prime Minister of the Empire, Tang Shaoyi, Minister of Foreign Affairs, Marshal Jiang Baili, Chief of General Staff, Marshal Shi Qingshan, Minister of War, Marshal Sa Zhenbing, Minister of Navy, and Marshal Chen Xudong, Director of Military Intelligence, and formally proposed to them the plan of a trip to Japan.

"It has been a year since the end of the war against Japan, and in the past year, the Governor-General's Office in Japan under the command of Marshal Shi Tokushan has made a lot of achievements. The situation in Japan has largely stabilized. At the beginning, I promised Marshal Ishitoyama that I would personally visit Japan a year later. So, I plan to leave for Japan within this month. Wu Haoxuan said.

"Your Majesty, to Japan? How can this work? Japan has been under the control of the Imperial Army for a year. However, those who oppose the empire did not stop there. Japan's government-in-exile is also constantly sending intelligence agents back to Japan to plan a series of actions against the empire. If they knew that His Majesty was going to Japan, they would definitely attack His Majesty in a frenzy. Therefore, please also ask Your Majesty to consider the empire and not risk your life. Yang Du immediately refused. Although, now Wu Haoxuan doesn't care much about the daily affairs of the empire. However, he remained at the helm of the Empire's major policies. If Wu Haoxuan has something long and short, then the problem is serious. Now is the stage of rapid development of the empire, and there is no room for sloppiness!

"Yes, Your Majesty. Now that the situation in Japan is very tense, it is better for Your Majesty not to go to Japan. Or wait until the situation in Japan is completely stabilized, and then it's not too late to go. I believe that Marshal Shi Deshan can also understand. Foreign Minister Tang Shaoyi also said.

There is no doubt that the officials of the civilian faction all refused to allow Wu Haoxuan to go to Japan. Therefore, Wu Haoxuan looked at the giants of the military.

"Your Majesty, the minister's meaning is not to put yourself in danger. His Majesty's identity is too special, the Imperial * army has killed so many people in Japan. Those Japanese hated the empire to the core. I believe that there are many Japanese people who are eager to eat His Majesty's flesh and drink His Majesty's blood. Even now, there have been frequent attacks on the Imperial garrisons in Japan. Therefore, if Your Majesty goes to Japan, it is too dangerous, and I ask Your Majesty to withdraw your order. Marshal Jiang Baili, Chief of the General Staff, also said.

Subsequently, the Minister of War, the Minister of the Navy, and the Director of the Military Intelligence Bureau all expressed their attitudes, and none of them approved of Wu Haoxuan's trip to Japan. In their opinion, Wu Haoxuan just stayed in China to preside over the major policies, and there was no need to risk his life at all. Besides, Japan, which has just been destroyed by war and earthquake for less than a year, has nothing to see.

was rejected by the important ministers, and Wu Haoxuan's face was a little unpleasant. He was also a stubborn temper, and the more everyone objected, the more he wanted to go.

"According to everyone's meaning, isn't this Japan a tiger's den in Longtan? I don't believe it. Besides, this time I went for a secret inspection, and I won't go in the open. As long as I do a good job of secrecy, how can those Japanese people know that I am gone? Besides, are my janissaries vegetarians? The Imperial Army was in Japan, but it had three army groups. If I had been killed by the Japanese under such circumstances, I would have died. Therefore, there is no need to persuade you. I've made up my mind. Wu Haoxuan said stubbornly.

The ministers were stunned when they saw that Wu Haoxuan's stubborn mistake had made another mistake.

"After a week, the trip will be completed, and the domestic affairs will be handed over to everyone to take care of. If you are unsure, please contact me directly by telegram. If there is any accident for me, let the crown prince ascend the throne. Wu Haoxuan said. (To be continued.) )
