spn Chapter 468: Landing in Japan
At eight o'clock in the morning on August 8, 1947, Huo Weiguo's special plane arrived at Nagano Airport.&*. The fastest update of "Time Travel Novel Bar" net**
"Stand at attention and salute!"
The officers and soldiers of the Airborne Division stood on both sides of the airport passage, holding steel guns in one hand and saluting with the other. Huo Weiguo, wearing an impressive military coat, stepped off the plane. He first returned the salute to the officers and soldiers of the Airborne Division who had arrived earlier, and then talked with him.
Many senior generals walked down the gangway together.
Japanese Emperor Takamatsu and Nori Kanaya and other military and political dignitaries, who had been waiting for a long time, all stepped forward and bowed in salute.[
"Kacha~Kacha~"
The Chinese reporter on the side hurriedly pressed the shutter to take pictures, leaving behind this historic moment. In the photo, a majestic general was walking with many military officers, while a group of Japanese in suits and military uniforms were bending down.
He bowed, lowered his eyebrows and looked down.
"I, Takamatsu, would like to welcome the Imperial Army General Huo Weiguo to Japan."
Gao Song took a step forward and saluted again.
"Um."
Huo Weiguo nodded noncommittally, glanced at the many Japanese military and political officials in front of him, and said nothing. Chen Cheng stepped forward and saluted him, and Huo Weiguo returned the salute and said, "Deputy Commander Chen, how are the preparations going?"
"Commander Huo, everything is ready in Freedom Square and the surrender ceremony can begin."
Chen Cheng said seriously.
"Let's go then. The surrender ceremony must be carried out on time."
Immediately, Huo Weiguo ignored the Japanese military and political officials at all. He only negotiated with his officers, and then they set off together by car to the Freedom Plaza near the Emperor's Palace in Nagano Prefecture.
Twenty minutes later, under the tight guard of the Airborne Division officers and soldiers, the convoy arrived at Freedom Square. In fact, there was no danger. The vicinity of Nagano Prefecture was guarded by divisions loyal to the Emperor and the Japanese military. Except for the Chinese ** team,
In addition to the two airborne divisions that arrived early, the main force has already landed on the seaside very close to Nagano. It will take at most two hours for the leading force to reach Nagano.
At this time, even if Japan wanted to regret it, it would be useless, let alone they would not dare to do so.
Liberty Square was built at the request of China, right in front of the Emperor's temporary palace, symbolizing Japan's move towards freedom and a new situation.
The Japanese side did not prepare a ceremonial team or play the national anthem. The guards of the square were also handed over to the officers and soldiers of the Airborne Division.
The square is not big, but the ceremony is very complete.
First there was the honor guard, then the national flag was raised and the national anthem was played. After the ceremony, the surrender ceremony officially began.
"The surrender ceremony begins!"
Chen Cheng, the on-site conductor, stood in front of the microphone and announced loudly, and then the national anthem was played again.
"Your Majesty, it has begun."[
Kanaya Norizan saw that Emperor Takamatsu next to him did not respond, thinking that he was overly sad, and quickly reminded him. Takamatsu came to his senses, with tears in his eyes, and then he held the sacred sword and national flag that symbolized the imperial power of the Japanese emperor, and surrendered conditionally.
Book. Together with Kanaya Norizo, who was holding the Japanese military flag and the general's sword, and the new Prime Minister Yoshida Shigeru, who was holding the letter of surrender, they walked towards the Chinese delegation standing there.
Members of the Chinese delegation, in addition to the plenipotentiary ambassador for Japan's surrender ceremony, Huo Weiguo, commander of the theater, and deputy commander Chen Cheng, also included Liu Shaoqi, deputy prime minister of the Government Affairs Council. However, in order to deliberately downplay politics and strengthen military deterrence, Liu Shaoqi only attended as a routine matter.
The three emperors represented the Japanese emperor, military circles, and political circles, and walked in front of the Chinese delegation.
"Your Excellency Zhang Shusheng, Chairman of the Council of the Empire of Greater China, and the delegation of the surrender of the Empire of Greater China, Your Majesty Nobuhito Takamatsunomiya, the 125th Emperor of Japan, hereby formally surrender to the Central Government of the Empire under the conditions.
We will honor our commitment and, after the handover is completed, dissolve the 'government' and the military and end the emperor's rule..."
It was a short paragraph that Takamatsu spoke with great difficulty, and he burst into tears at the end. Yes, the rule of 125 generations of Japanese emperors ended in his own hands. The feeling of being the last emperor was unbearable.
It felt so good, even though I knew I was doing this to prevent Yamato from becoming extinct, I still felt extremely sad.
After saying that, with him as the leader, the three people stepped forward, bowed and handed over various items representing the conditions, including conditional surrender letters, sabers, flags, etc.
"On behalf of the Supreme Council of the Empire and Chairman Zhang Shusheng, I accept your terms of surrender."
Huo Weiguo didn't say much, and together with Chen Cheng and Liu Shaoqi, they accepted the surrender items handed over by the Japanese.
The flash lights at the scene suddenly flashed into one. Several reporters wiped away their tears with excitement while working nervously and orderly, for fear of missing the details of the Japanese's conditional surrender.
The moment Huo Weiguo and the other three took over the surrender items, the officer in charge of etiquette immediately shouted, "Fire the gun!"
The officers and soldiers of the Airborne Division on both sides of the square who were in charge of guarding all raised their Chinese fully automatic rifles and fired a single shot into the air for thirty rounds.
The simple but important surrender ceremony ended. Although Takamatsu and others still had to temporarily cooperate with the empire to clean up Japan's mess, they had already withdrawn from Japan's stage.
At the same time, the main forces also began to land on a large scale. Outside Nagano Castle, the leading 135th Division was ready to enter the city.
The division commander, Major General Zhang Yayun, was sitting in the armored command vehicle. He looked at his watch and walked to the position before ordering, "Enter the city!"
The 135th is a semi-mechanized division, with armored vehicles and tanks at the front, and military jams at the back, and begins to enter the city.
The roads in Nagano are so bad that tank tracks will leave a deep mark when pressed, and the stone-paved roads cannot withstand pressure at all. There are no city walls or gates in Nagano, and after passing through a low shanty town, the convoy entered the city.
"Welcome, welcome..."
A shocking scene appeared. A large number of Japanese appeared on both sides of the road, waving flowers and shouting in unfamiliar Chinese, welcoming the imperial army into the city.
This fact surprised Major General Zhang Yayun.
"You think this little devil is so happy when his country is overthrown? It's a bit strange."
Zhang Yayun said to Yu Xiangqian, the leader of the 1st regiment next to her.[
Yu Xiangqian smiled bitterly and said, "Since ancient times, civilians have been the easiest to become a wallflower. Although the Japanese shout about jade breaking every day and shout that they want to bet on the fate of the country with small bets, in fact the civilians are also living a very hard life. In addition, our comrades secretly
If we do our work, there should be many poor and lower-middle peasants in Japan today who are also inclined to change the government."
"The Japanese really have no position," Zhang Yayun said with emotion.
"It's not entirely their fault. When the Japanese invaded China, some people in some of our counties and towns also lined up to welcome the Japanese. But things are much better now. With the development of culture, information spreads faster, and the people are more educated and knowledgeable.
, cannot be compared with ordinary civilians in Japan." Yu Xiangqian explained.
"That's true." It's not that Zhang Yayun doesn't understand, it's just that she's used to rushing to kill, and her knowledge is not as good as that of the young officer under her. She didn't say much at the moment, and curiously looked at the Japanese on the roadside through the sighting equipment.
Seeing each of them shouting welcome at the top of their lungs, or with tears streaming down their faces, he felt a kind of conqueror's pleasure in him.
Although the 135th Division was only semi-mechanized, the number of tanks and armored vehicles had reached two to one, so the Japanese in Nagano were naturally shocked.
"The Chinese army is too powerful."
A Japanese teacher originally looked at the excited compatriots around him with indifference and disdain, but when he saw the Chinese army, he couldn't help but be stunned.
Huge armored vehicles and tanks took up almost three-quarters of the remaining passage. Watching the armored vehicles and tanks with muzzles raised high coming from a distance, there was a strong vibration on the ground.
I felt a little frightened.
Japanese convoys often come and go in Nagano, but they are just little guys, few in number, and they don’t look that scary. However, the Chinese tanks are as powerful as steel behemoths.
At the same time, there were groups of Chinese planes flying over in the sky. They flew very low, even only about twenty meters higher than the buildings in the city. The violent sound of aircraft engines and the sound of vehicle engines on the ground were almost intertwined.
Already.
The Chinese soldiers on the military cards have a neat military appearance, all wearing 45-year-old standard field military uniforms, wearing camouflage steel helmets, and showing murderous looks. Compared with those sickly soldiers standing on both sides of the road, they are dead.
The Japanese soldiers who maintained order were much stronger.
Of course, the Japanese cars leading the way in front of the imperial troops entering the city are even more shabby. Japanese with a little knowledge can discover from the powerful weapons and equipment of the imperial troops that the two countries have great industrial manufacturing capabilities.
There is already a huge gap between science and technology.
Of course, there are also some other voices.
"...Down with the Chinese, they will all be shattered..."
Not far away from the street entrance, a group of Japanese suddenly rushed out crazily. I don’t know how they escaped the previous arrests, but at this moment, they were brandishing long knives, guns, and even hand grenades, trying to hit the enemy.
The team's entry into the city.
Seeing all this, Zhang Yayun sneered and said, "The time has come for the Japanese to show their loyalty."
Sure enough, not long after these dozens of Japanese rushed out, the Japanese heavy machine gun squads on the street fortifications and rooftop fortifications had already been ordered to turn their guns and start shooting.
"Da da da..."
The heavy machine gun spit out tongues of flame, and just three heavy machine gun firepower points smashed the dozens of Japanese into a sieve, as if it did not affect the entry ceremony of the Chinese ** team at all.
Without any care, the Japanese troops opened fire and settled these discordant sounds.
What is strange is that the Japanese soldiers who opened fire had no sympathy for their compatriots. Even the Japanese who were watching just shook their heads indifferently. Some even shivered with fear or hid deep in the crowd. The Japanese soldiers who maintained order were even more
It is to put the bayonet on and be ready to suppress with force at any time.
The entire city entry ceremony was generally smooth, just like the actions of the Chinese ** Corps in Nagano County. On that day alone, the Chinese ** Corps completed control of Nagano County, and the Japanese divisions were driven to the periphery to encircle them.
and attack those reactionary Japanese divisions that are still confronting and resisting.
When the United States, Britain, Germany and the Soviet Union were making a fuss over the leasing and counter-leasing of atoms, and when major results were about to come, China sent Huo Weiguo to start a thorough crackdown on Japan with thunderous means. The army was in front, and local "governments" were formed in the back. Of course,
