Chapter 92: Dispute in front of the emperor (new book, please watch)
The press conference originally scheduled for 8:30 had to be postponed for half an hour due to various reasons, and it officially started at 9 o'clock!
The press conference was chaired by He Yingqin, Minister of Military Affairs of the Nationalist Government, and Wang Chonghui, Minister of Foreign Affairs. The military also sent a major general councilor to attend.
At the beginning of the reception, He Yingqin first announced the results of the 67th Army at Baiji Mountain outside Suzhou City last night, and confirmed that the Japanese pro-Japanese dynasty King Xianggong Jiuhiko was indeed killed on the front line.
He read out the "Message to the Compatriots in the Country" drafted by Chairman Chiang himself, reaffirming the Nationalist Government's determination to resist Japanese aggression and expressing China's ability and strength to win this battle and drive the Japanese invaders out of China.
Subsequently, He Yingqin publicly exposed the Japanese army¡¯s conspiracy to commit a massacre in Nanjing, the capital of China. It also stated that the Nationalist Government would concentrate its efforts on fighting the battle to defend Nanjing, and at the same time start work on evacuation of Nanjing people.
In addition, Foreign Minister Wang Chonghui called on Western society to intervene against the Japanese army's crimes against humanity, and hoped that all peace-loving people in the world would lend a helping hand to China.
"If Li Guoyao's explicit power-on yesterday was just a small splash, your current press conference of the National Government has pushed the matter to a climax.
Before the reception was over, news about the Japanese prince¡¯s death and the Japanese army¡¯s attempt to carry out a massacre in Nanjing spread throughout the country and spread to the world at an extremely fast speed.
Although there are constant wars in this world, no matter whether it was the previous huge World War or other wars, few armies carried out massacres against civilians. This incident quickly caused a great sensation around the world, and many countries Stand up and take responsibility for the Japanese government.
At the same time that the Nationalist Government held a press conference, a high-profile imperial meeting was being held in the Kyoto Imperial Palace in Tokyo, Japan.
The so-called imperial meeting, as the name suggests, is a meeting presided over by the emperor himself. However, the emperor of Japan is different from the emperors of other countries. Although everyone is playing with the divine right of kings, for example, the emperor of China usually emphasizes that he is the emperor and sits by himself. The position of God is in compliance with the laws of heaven, but no matter what, the emperor of China does not deny that he is a human being.
But the Japanese emperors are different. They claim that they are descendants of Amaterasu. From the first generation of Emperor Jimmu, they have claimed that the emperor is a god and not a human being.
Because of this, Japanese emperors generally do not show their emotions. Even when discussing government affairs, they sit there and listen quietly, rarely expressing their own views and opinions. They completely put themselves above ordinary people. Location.
If he has any objections, the emperor will give instructions in a memorial instead of speaking out at a meeting.
It is precisely because of this that after Japan's defeat, the Americans spent a lot of effort to bring down the Japanese Emperor. In the end, it was the legendary five-star general MacArthur who personally came forward to solve this big trouble.
MacArthur's solution to the matter was also very simple and crude. At that time, Emperor Hirohito went to MacArthur's residence in person to express his gratitude to MacArthur for not killing him. Before the emperor came, Japanese personnel told MacArthur that he could not see the emperor. Shake hands, because the Emperor is a god.
But when he saw Empress Hirohito of Japan, MacArthur naturally extended his hand to him. Emperor Hirohito was stunned for a moment when he saw it, but then he still took it.
According to Japanese royal rules, the emperor cannot shake hands with civilians, but this time he broke this rule. American media reported that this was a sign that the emperor transformed from a god into a human being.
What made Emperor Hirohito even more unexpected was that MacArthur then took Emperor Hirohito to stand in the middle of the hall. An American soldier holding a camera quickly came to MacArthur and Hirohito. Before the ministers around Hirohito could stop him, he took pictures one after another. took three photos. This was the photo of MacArthur with his hands on his waist and Hirohito looking dull, which was later published in the newspaper.
As soon as this photo was released, it caused a rapid response. Of course, there were many people who protested against MacArthur. However, this move allowed the Japanese public to see the holy face for the first time. The image of the Emperor God was discounted in the Japanese people's psychology and was no longer mysterious.
This was just the first step. Later, MacArthur asked Hirohito to issue the "Declaration of the Human World". One of the original words in the declaration was this: I was not born based on myths and legends alone, but to say that I am a god, the Japanese nation is more powerful than other nations. The idea that a nation has superior qualities and has the destiny to expand and dominate the world is also unfounded
It can be said that the declaration of the world is clearEven if China's current situation is very bad, the possibility of success is still slim.
In fact, this difference is not only between the base camp and the government, but also the opinions within the base camp are not unified, and they are divided into two factions for this reason.
The non-expansion faction, headed by Major General Kanji Ishihara, Chief of the Operations Department of the General Staff Headquarters, Colonel Toshiro Kawabe, Chief of the War Guidance Section, Colonel Kaneshiro Shibayama, Chief of the Military Affairs Section of the Army Ministry, and General Gen Sugiyama, Prime Minister of the Land, and Military Affairs Bureau Military Affairs The main combat faction headed by Lieutenant Colonel Tanaka Shinichi, a senior lecturer in the class, and Colonel Muto Akira, the Operations Section of the General Staff Headquarters and Chief of Staff of the Shanghai Expeditionary Force, have great differences. Each has its own opinion, and no one can convince the other. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
