Chapter 133: The Sino-American War of the Biting Dog

  In Muyang's heart, whoever becomes the Emperor is all the same, after all, it's just a mascot who has been pushed out, but he underestimated the ** of human nature.

  In this past month, the Japanese imperial family has also experienced many accidents. To describe it as a "stormy and bloody" situation is not an exaggeration at all. In this struggle for power, one prince has already died, and the Fushimi-no-miya house was suppressed by several other houses. The severity of the situation is no less than that of the Tokyo Christmas night incident. Of course, if it weren't for the fact that the imperial family is also currently embroiled in internal strife, someone would have likely come forward to question Kuniaki Kizawa's recent brainless actions by now.

  The Emperor met with members of the Imperial Family, and the internal struggle within the Imperial Household also came to an end. Under pressure from the Emperor, Hirohito's eldest son Akihito was finally chosen as the new Emperor, becoming the 125th Emperor of Japan, with the era name 'Heisei'.

  Two days later, Muyang had Nakamura Masao lead the Imperial Guard Division, taking the new Emperor and a group of royal family members directly to Kyoto. Of course, when they left, Muyang also used his power to order Tokyo's banks to transfer funds to Kyoto.

  The bombing continues, the war continues.

  But in this historical time and space, the Japanese army's situation on the Chinese mainland is even more precarious, with smoke and fire rising everywhere. The Japanese army, due to a lack of troops and supplies, has been repeatedly defeated on the battlefield. Many lower-ranking officers who can no longer bear it are delighted to see their own superiors killed, and many generals on the list have been assassinated one after another, while the Chinese army has won victory after victory.

  In the Southeast Asian battlefield, the US military paid more soldiers' lives and finally achieved further victories. The footsteps of the US military are unstoppable, Japan has entered the countdown.

  On May 8, 1945, a message shocked the world: Germany surrendered, and Karl D?nitz signed his name on the unconditional surrender document.

  Immediately afterwards, Muyang delivered a speech on Kyoto Broadcasting Station, "In view of the current Japanese Empire's war situation, the empire has decided to withdraw troops from China and Southeast Asia, and withdraw all troops back to the country to maintain national security."

  For this decision, most Japanese officials were divided into two camps, some supported and others opposed, but now the Emperor holds a great deal of power in Japan, and finally used some means to make it happen.

  But can you just withdraw troops as you wish?

  When Japan first invaded China and Southeast Asia, the Japanese Navy was still very powerful, and Japan had strong transportation capabilities. Even so, it took Japan several years to complete all deployments, after all, there were millions of Japanese soldiers overseas, and they couldn't be transported back in a short period of time.

  But Muyang doesn't care about these things, anyway, it's just a desperate struggle. In the process of retreating, I estimate that half of them died at sea, which is much more than the domestic troops and their hard fight.

  Due to Muyang's reckless command, the Japanese army finally withdrew nearly 10 million soldiers back to their country after paying a huge price. However, the number of soldiers stranded overseas still exceeded 30 million, and these people became Japan's abandoned children.

  Muyang wouldn't care about their lives or deaths.

  The United States and European countries, including China, demanded Japan's surrender. Hirohito made a radio broadcast allowing Japanese troops stationed in China to choose surrender, but soldiers in Southeast Asia were ordered to continue resisting the Americans. In Japan itself, he vowed to resist to the last moment, that Japan could die by the sword but would never surrender.

  Although Moyou's suicidal behavior killed several hundred thousand Japanese soldiers, his tough speech won the support of the vast majority of Japanese civilians and soldiers. At this moment, Moyou's prestige reached a new height.

  The United States dispatched the Pacific Fleet, transporting a large number of soldiers to occupy the islands near Japan. After paying nearly 30,000 soldiers' lives, they finally took Ryukyu with difficulty and began large-scale troop deployments from this base.

  The US naval fleet then attacked the Yokosuka Naval Base, engaging in a fierce battle with the Japanese Navy outside the harbor. The Japanese Navy was ultimately annihilated, but at the cost of one American aircraft carrier, three cruisers and several destroyer escorts. The Americans finally occupied Yokosuka, marking their first landing on Japanese soil.

  After the US military landed, it took Yokosuka as its base and began to pour in a large number of soldiers. In less than a month, the United States dispatched nearly 200,000 troops, completing a task that was almost impossible to complete.

  The Japanese army, with the million troops recalled from overseas, plus the reserve forces left in the country, formed a massive human wall that blocked the US military's advance. Yokosuka is only 50 kilometers away from Tokyo, too close, and both sides launched a large-scale positional warfare in the middle area, causing heavy casualties for the US military, which was once blocked by the Japanese army.

  For this, US General MacArthur, also known as the bombing general.

  The slaughter began, and the narrow strip of land between Tokyo and Yokosuka turned into a real abattoir. The Americans continued to increase their troops, and after paying with tens of thousands of soldiers' lives, they finally repelled the Japanese army's resistance in coordination with air raids. The Japanese army retreated to the outskirts of Tokyo with its remaining defeated troops.

  Thus, both sides fell into a bitter struggle. In the next two months, the United States increased its troops in Japan to 650,000, with casualties reaching an astonishing 100,000. The US Congress once questioned President and Far East Commander MacArthur, asking how many more young lives the United States would have to pay to take down Japan.

  At this time, on the battlefield in China, Japanese soldiers, due to lack of supplies, have chosen to surrender one after another. The Chinese war situation has completely turned towards victory.

  At this moment, the hatred between America and Japan has reached an unbearable level.

  The Tokyo defense line was breached by the US military, and Tokyo fell into the hands of the US military. However, this was not the end, but rather the beginning of a nightmare for the US military.

  Mao Yang once again delivered a radio speech, encouraging the Japanese people to take up their guns and continue fighting against the Americans. He declared that they must not surrender because the Yamato people are an invincible nation, an unyielding nation. To kill American invaders is to be a hero of Japan, and after death, one can return to the embrace of the heavenly gods.

  In Tokyo, the Americans were plunged into a sea of people's war. After the Japanese army withdrew to the Tokyo defense line, they received orders from Muyang to open the reserve warehouses in Tokyo, distribute guns to the masses, and organize personnel for brief training.

  Training was simple: they were taught how to hold a rifle, pull the bolt back, fire and then told that even with bayonets, they could stab Americans to death.

  After the Americans entered Tokyo, they found themselves under attack from all sides at any time and in any location, with bullets flying in and taking the lives of American boys. This became unbearable for MacArthur, who issued an order that he would regret for the rest of his life: massacre.

  The US military launched a large-scale search operation in Tokyo, and anyone who had guns at home would be listed as a criminal and treated as an enemy. The US military gathered those Japanese people together, and if they resisted slightly, they would be shot dead directly. On that day, the streets of Tokyo were filled with corpses, and it is estimated that more than 10,000 people were killed or injured.

  Mao Zedong made another broadcast, condemning the US massacre and denouncing this inhuman act. The US Congress, under pressure from outside, relieved General MacArthur of his post as Commander-in-Chief of the Expeditionary Force.
