This group of prisoners of war set out from East Malaysia half a month ago. They were all originally from Tokyo. As the first batch of prisoners of war to be repatriated, they attracted the attention of all walks of life in Japan. Of course, Ichiro Hatoyama, who has been working hard for the prisoners of war to return home, will not let them go.

After this opportunity, I even prepared a touching speech.

All the responsibility for the outbreak of the war can be placed on the military headquarters. From now on, New Japan will start anew and so on.

Finding a floor with a wide view and a good angle, Alan Wilson sat down with Burgess, the ambassador to Japan, and did what they should do at the right time, including a cup of afternoon tea, or drinking if it was evening.

As for the agents Philby sent over, they were already at their posts and ready to leave a classic photo to prove their professional capabilities.

"Even the Soviet Union started repatriating prisoners of war last year. In fact, it's a little late for us to do this." Burgess held a tea cup and chatted with Alan Wilson after seeing that it would take some time for the ship to dock. "And the effect is

not good."

"Did the Soviet Union carry out ideological transformation on the prisoners of war of the Japanese Kwantung Army? I heard that it aroused the vigilance of Japanese public opinion. However, most Soviet prisoners of war will not be repatriated. It would be more appropriate to send them to Hokkaido." Alan Wilson looked troubled.

Xie Zhise said, "Actually, as long as the land in Hokkaido does not exceed the population carrying capacity, life should not be difficult."

"I heard that the climate in Hokkaido is similar to that of the mainland, but I have never been there." Burgess shook his head slightly, saying that he didn't know much about it himself. After all, Japan's domestic prevention of information infiltration from the Soviet Union was still very strict.

"To be precise, the climate is worse than that of the mainland." Alan Wilson thought for a moment and said, "But the population is not comparable. There are 50 million people living in the mainland, which is already very crowded."

Due to the barren land and bad climate in the UK, most fruits cannot grow locally. Most fruits in the UK, especially those from the Iberian Peninsula, are imported from the Iberian Peninsula.

This is not Alan Wilson's connotation of the British mainland. There are very few island countries in the world with rich land. In fact, Japan's land is among the island countries, even if it has excellent agricultural conditions. As for the top agriculture in the island country, it must be the core of Indonesia.

Java Island.

The advantage of the UK over Japan and Indonesia lies in the existence of coal and iron mines in the UK, which are sufficient to support the needs of the Industrial Revolution.

"Burgess, what do you think of the Japanese Socialist Party?" Alan Wilson asked the ambassador to Japan.

"From my observation, Americans are very wary of this party. It's not that I have any dissatisfaction with the United States. If Prime Minister Attlee was Japanese, there might be American agents staring at his door every day." Burgess shook his head slightly.

He said, “I can’t see any development in the short term.”

Alan Wilson nodded. Although the Japanese Socialist Party during the Cold War retained a certain degree of strength, it was similar to the existence of the Italian Communist Party. It was a powerful opposition party but could not break through.

Japan has a 1955 system, in which the two major parties merged to form the Liberal Democratic Party, which held power until the end of the Cold War. There was a similar phenomenon in Italian politics during the Cold War, with the Catholic Democratic Party and the Liberal Democratic Party having similar statuses.

After the end of the Cold War, the South Korean military government originally wanted to form a super party like the Liberal Democratic Party. However, times changed, and eventually South Korea's leftists came forward and entered into an alternation between the two parties.

If a country wants to be in power for a long time, it must be backed by economic growth. The Liberal Democratic Party has long controlled Japan's political scene, overwhelming the Cold War Socialist Party and later the Komeito Party and the Democratic Party. The reason is that the Liberal Democratic Party is a hodgepodge of political parties. The Liberal Democratic Party does not advocate peace and harmony.

The program is deeply bound to the Japanese chaebol.

In fact, the Japanese political arena is more solidified than the American political arena. In front of the Japanese establishment, the American establishment will just have fun.

However, with the loss of Hokkaido now, it is hard to say whether Japan will be the same as it will be in the future. In addition, there will be competition from British Malaya in the early stages, making it even harder to predict.

If the economic development is not smooth sailing, perhaps the dominance of the Liberal Democratic Party will turn into an alternation between the two parties. This is the possible impact of British Malaya being eligible to compete.

As for Hokkaido, if the Soviet Union annexed Hokkaido and Japan refused to recognize it, the Soviet Union would not even be able to enter the United Nations. No one knows what the political impact will be.

Just when the two of them were chatting about something unrelated, a ship full of prisoners of war had already sounded its whistle. Looking from a distance, you could see a lot of soldiers still wearing old Japanese military uniforms on the deck, and there was a huge crowd.

Because of the distance, Alan Wilson couldn't see the expressions of these prisoners of war. Did he have mixed feelings? Tears streaming down his face? Finally, his five-year prisoner-of-war career ended. Tears were about to fall, right?

Alan Wilson, who was well prepared, took out the telescope, which made Burgess look helpless. Why did he seem to do this kind of thing often?

Burgess didn’t know this. People whose photos were taken by Alan Wilson include, but are not limited to, Hedy Lamarr, Joan Crawford, Bette Davis, Greta Garbo and Ingrid Berg.

Mann, Pauline Godard, Lana Turner, Joan Bennett, and even Margaret.

Photography technology has advanced by leaps and bounds, not to mention a small telescope. With the blessing of the telescope, he saw the expressions of Japanese prisoners of war coming off the ship more clearly.

Ichiro Hatoyama had already got off the pier and started his speech. He sincerely expressed his reflections on the war and his optimism for Japan's future development.

"Ha!" Because of the function of the radio, Hatoyama Ichiro's speech spanned space and rang in front of Alan Wilson and Burgess. With Ozawa Ichiro's translation, both of them knew what it meant.

"Oh, Alan, didn't Mr. Hatoyama express his reflections on the war?" Burgess couldn't see Alan Wilson's sinister look, and couldn't help but speak up to stop this ungentlemanly behavior.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Anti-war or anti-war defeat, these are two questions. Let alone Japan, I won't believe the Germans if they apologize eight times a day."

Alan Wilson sneered, "Don't forget how long we supported Japan, and we were eventually bitten, but I believe the Americans will not make the same mistake."

I have to say that Ichiro Hatoyama has done enough homework in order to officially come back. Alan Wilson listened for a while. If it were not for Ozawa's translation, then Ichiro Hatoyama might consider taking a temporary post in Whitehall.

With the end of Ichiro Hatoyama's speech, which was both reflection on the defeat and full of chicken soup for the future, these ragged prisoners of war, in a dock full of political correctness, returned to Japanese soil after five years.

Many prisoners of war who had been subjected to five years of forced labor had tears in their eyes. They probably loved this land deeply.

Although they will soon be taught how to behave by the post-war society, the homesickness at this moment, even Alan Wilson, who was holding a telescope to watch the excitement, also felt a trace of sympathy that should not appear, although it only appeared.

It took a second, but it finally appeared.

"This kind of scene, even for the Japanese, can't help but make people sigh." Burgess also said with emotion when he watched the prisoners of war disembarking from the ship surrounded by Japanese people.

"Think about the scene when the expeditionary force returned home five years ago." Alan Wilson reminded Burgess with a cold face, and said quietly, "I heard that there were 70,000 cross-border marriages between Britain and Germany in the past five years. Can you guess the reason?

?”

He did not lie. If the three countries' occupied areas were not merged for a day, the British-occupied area's trade committee would be running. That was where Alan Wilson had contributed, and the numbers provided by the trade committee would not lie.

I just don’t know if it has something to do with the cross-border wedding he facilitated. Anyway, it has almost become a trend for retired soldiers to marry German girls after the war. In recent years, the British feminist movement has suffered a devastating blow.

After his comeback, Ichiro Hatoyama gained enough exposure on the matter of repatriating prisoners of war. Major Japanese newspapers, including the Sankei Shimbun, spoke highly of Hatoyama Ichiro's speech.

As for the media in other countries, the writing style is a little skewed. Related reports in the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Portugal and Australia all use photos of Japanese prisoners of war in ragged clothes and tall American soldiers with their arms around Japanese girls.

According to reports, sales are still very high.

Under the aggressive coercion of Ichiro Hatoyama, the current Prime Minister Yoshida Shigeru could not continue to perfunctory. In the subsequent speech to the Congress, he took the initiative to send ships to be scattered in Southeast Asia and detained in the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Australia and Portugal.

Take back the prisoners of war in your hands.

It can be said that Ichiro Hatoyama successfully repatriated the prisoners of war this time and successfully gained a sense of presence after his comeback. There is still much to see about the future battle with Shigeru Yoshida.

Alan Wilson also achieved his goal. He finally brought back to Japan these prisoners of war who had lost their use value and could only feed themselves. At least his trip to Japan had been a complete success. The repatriated prisoners of war were actually nothing, they just had broken bones and were limping.

If you have a crutch or a bandage on your arm, or you are missing a thumb, you cannot perform high-intensity labor.

It was also on this day that the fifth battle of the peninsula officially ended. Different from the previous times, it seemed that the two sides did not intend to continue the fight immediately.

The MI6 agents who had already proven their professionalism also entered the Korean Peninsula in the name of British foreign correspondents at this time and began their investigative journey.

Alan Wilson, who was packing his bags, showed his consistent style of getting out of the way as soon as things were done and never being sloppy.

This made it difficult for Burgess, who was about to try to persuade her to stay, to open her mouth. He could only say, "Maybe there are too many things in Malaya and you are busy enough at work."
