At this time, the international gold price is about 1 US dollars for 35 ounce of gold, and 5000 tons of gold is about 62 billion US dollars.

"62 billion US dollars is indeed a lot, but it seems that the money to buy life is a bit small for Japan and the Japanese clan to survive!" Jiang Weiguo put down the photo calmly, then threw away the cigarette butt that he had smoked, and lit a cigarette again. cigarette, "First of all, I want to know, where did you get five thousand tons of gold?"

Shigeru Kawagoe replied immediately: "Some of them were collected in Japan, and most of them were collected by the Japanese army in overseas occupied areas!"

Jiang Weiguo knew that the "collection" in Kawagoe Shigeru's mouth was robbing.

Because of the free ride between China and Germany, Japan did occupy a very large overseas territory during the war, such as the Philippines, Indonesia, and India. The area of ​​these three places alone exceeds 600 million square kilometers. The total population of the three places is as high as The total population of China's mainland is about the same, as high as [-] to [-] million.

With such a large territory and such a large population, one can imagine the wealth it contains.

After the Japanese occupied these places, they initially wanted to permanently turn them into new territories of Japan. They used more or less gentle means, but as the war situation deteriorated, Japan was about to lose these enemies. Therefore, they changed their strategy and no longer thought about how to manage these places well, but tried their best to plunder the places with the strength to plunder the bones and scrape the ground, and strive to squeeze out all the enemies before losing these places. Therefore, Japan The occupying forces in the local area can be said to use all means to expropriate and plunder the polar regions. India, especially in the three lands, is a large place with a large population, and the Indians are particularly fond of gold (according to later data, the Indian folk The total amount of gold storage reached more than [-] tons), but the Japanese army ransacked everything, from bank vaults to museums, gold statues in temples, to gold jewelry worn by housewives, and even the burials in the graves of the dead All the goods were looted by the Japanese army with bayonets.

By means of searching, squeezing, and looting, the Japanese made huge amounts of wealth from their vast overseas occupied areas.

Before China and Japan turned against each other, seven out of ten gold wealth of the Japanese flowed into China, which was used to buy industrial raw materials, strategic materials, and weapons and equipment from China (at that time, there was no other country that could do business with Japan except China, the United States, Australia , New Zealand and other countries were at war with Japan, India, Indonesia, the Philippines and other countries were occupied by Japan and became the targets of the Japanese search, while Germany, Italy and other countries were too far away from Japan, making China almost Japan's only foreign trade country) After the Sino-Japanese war, although the Japanese can continue to search for a lot of wealth from India, Indonesia, the Philippines and other places, they "have money and have no place to spend it", thus accumulating huge wealth.

It should be noted that Japan is indeed impoverished at the moment, but it does not mean that Japan has no money. Japan still has money. Of course, Japanese yen banknotes are not money. For the domestic "collection" and the "collection" of foreign occupied areas, the Japanese government has a large amount of hard currency such as gold, but because there are no foreign countries doing business with Japan at this time, the gold that cannot be eaten or drunk is only Can stay in Japanese government bank vaults, or be secretly buried in many places by the Japanese army.

In the final analysis, gold is only valuable if it is used for trading. If it is exchanged for food, steel, oil, rubber, machines, and weapons, Japan can go to war, and it is meaningless if it cannot be used for trading.

Chapter 787 Japanese Summation (2)

Jiang Weiguo knew that the Japanese probably didn't brag about what they said. Firstly, I forgive them for not daring to do so. Secondly, it is also in line with the objective fact that the Japanese have [-] tons of gold hidden in their hands.

The gold reserves on the earth are huge (it is said to reach 60 trillion tons), but almost all of them are in the depths of the earth's core that cannot be mined by humans. The gold that can be mined by humans is about 25 tons, of which about 10 tons are in South Africa. At this time , 1100 to 2000 tons of gold are mined around the world every year (later generations will reach 2600 tons per year, but the mining is getting less and less, and mining is becoming more and more difficult), and a total of about 13 tons of gold have been mined (in the 21st century, Human beings have mined about 17 tons of gold in total), and the Japanese mastered 5000 tons of gold through war and plunder. It seems amazing, but it is actually reasonable.

Jiang Weiguo estimated that the gold in the hands of the Japanese must be more than 5000 tons, maybe 8000 tons, and 5000 tons were given to Jiang Weiguo as money for his life, and 3000 tons were planned to be used for Japan's post-war reconstruction.

In any case, taking out 5000 tons of gold at once, the Japanese really paid a lot of money, because the Japanese know that they are really going to die, and if they don't spend the money, they will definitely die.

As a reference, the official gold reserves of the US government in later generations reached more than 8100 tons, accounting for three-quarters of the total official gold reserves of governments around the world. It must be more than that. The US government must still hold a large amount of gold that cannot be put on the table. First, the source of gold is "dirty", and second, it is necessary to maintain market stability and balance.

If a large amount of gold is put into the market at once, not only will you not make a fortune, but it will also cause the price of gold to plummet, and you will lose money instead.

Seeing Jiang Weiguo pondering for a while, Kawagoe Mao hurriedly said: "Little General Jiang, to be honest, we can accumulate such a huge gold reserve because of a 'Golden Lily' plan formulated by our country's high-level officials. The core of the plan is to allow Japan to obtain huge wealth during the war through means of war. In this way, even if Japan loses the war, Japan only loses militarily, but not economically. Japan will have enough money after the war. funds to quickly rebuild Japan!"

Jiang Weiguo narrowed his eyes and looked at Shigeru Kawagoe with a mocking look: "When did you Japanese become so honest? You would say such frank things to me!"

Shigeru Kawagoe showed a wry smile: "We have been dealing with you for so long, we have already deeply known what kind of unfathomable person you are, and how unfathomable your wisdom is, playing tricks in front of you can only be done by you There won’t be any good results other than seeing it through immediately and being fully retaliated by you, we must tell you the truth, so as to prove our sincerity!”

Jiang Weiguo puffed out a puff of smoke: "Unconditionally cede the overseas occupied areas, permanently cede the Hokkaido area, cede the Kyushu Island area and the Shikoku Island area for a limited time, use 99% of the national income and 50 tons of gold for 5000 years as a war Compensation, except for these four points, is it gone?"

Kawagoe Shigeru showed a timid panic on his face: "Aren't these enough?"

Jiang Weiguo sneered softly: "Is it enough, don't you have any count in your heart?"

Shigeru Kawagoe's face became bitter and difficult again: "We are still willing... and we are willing to let the Chinese army station in the Kanto region for a long-term period of 99 years..." Seeing that Jiang Weiguo's face seemed to sink, he hurriedly changed his words, "Forever! For a period of time permanent!"

The four main islands of Japan are administratively divided into eight places (the other three islands and one island, and the most important Honshu Island is divided into five places): Hokkaido, Kyushu (Kyushu), Shikoku (Shikoku) Island) and Tohoku (North of Honshu), Chubu (Central of Honshu), Chugoku (South of Honshu), Kinki (Southeast of Honshu), Kanto (central and eastern Honshu), among them, Kanto The place is not only the core of Honshu Island, but also the core of Japan. It is located in the central and eastern part of Honshu Island facing the Pacific Ocean, with Tokyo as the core, including six counties and one capital: Kanagawa County, Chiba County, Ibaraki County, Tochigi County, Gunma County, Saitama County, and Tokyo Metropolis, one-third of the population of Japan is concentrated in this area with a total area of ​​only 3.2 square kilometers (the Kanto area is almost all plains, that is, the Kanto Plain, and the Kanto Plain is also the largest in Japan a plain).

The Japanese know that in order to preserve Honshu, which is the most important island, they have abandoned their cars again and again to protect their commanders. They first abandoned Hokkaido, and then Kyushu and Shikoku Islands, but these three places cannot be filled together. Jiang Weiguo's appetite, Jiang Weiguo is determined to win Honshu Island and is determined to win it. Honshu Island must let Jiang Weiguo's "magic palm" get involved, and the most important Kanto region will inevitably bear the brunt.

Since they couldn't escape at all, the Japanese simply "looked away" and gave up the Kanto area so as to preserve the rest of Honshu Island (the total area of ​​Honshu Island is about 22.8 square kilometers, and after deducting the Kanto area, there are still 19.6 square kilometers kilometer).

"What else?" Jiang Weiguo didn't make a statement, but continued to ask. His tone was not high, but his momentum was like a mountain top.

Although he had made the best psychological preparations, Kawagoe Shigeru was still shocked and frightened by Jiang Weiguo's "greedy" and "lion's big mouth".

According to common sense, when one party starts a negotiation with the other party, it must first come up with a plan. If it is not accepted by the other party, it must be taken back and revised, and then come up with a new plan to continue bargaining in the next negotiation. However, the Japanese and Jiang Weiguo’s Negotiations are not the same thing. Jiang Weiguo never saw the Japanese peace representatives. The Japanese wanted to see Jiang Weiguo's golden face. It is almost impossible to have the next negotiation with Jiang Weiguo. Therefore, before the Japanese high-level officials sent Shigeru Kawagoe to China, they had already revealed all Japan's "bottom line for peace". Therefore, Shigeru Kawagoe still had a few conditions hidden in his heart. The best thing is to say as little as possible.

Seeing that Jiang Weiguo is so tough, so tough that it can be called watertight, Shigeru Kawagoe had to come up with the final condition.

"Little General Jiang, in order to express our sincerity in submitting to China, His Majesty the Emperor broke the 3000-year-old tradition and specially approved the handing over of the 'Three Great Artifacts of Japan' to your country for a period of... 99 years!" Shigeru Kawagoe held back his thoughts Huge and humiliated, said with tears in his eyes.

"Oh? The Three Great Artifacts?" Jiang Weiguo was once again interested.

The so-called "Three Great Artifacts of Japan" are the three national treasures in the hands of the Japanese royal family, namely the Amazono Cloud Sword (Grass Pheasant Sword), the Bachi Qiong Gouyu, and the Yata Mirror.

In Japanese legend, these three so-called artifacts were bestowed by the gods on the Japanese royal family, and they were the tokens of the Japanese royal family’s rule of Japan. Over the past thousand years, they have evolved into symbols of the divine power of the Japanese royal family, and they are the supreme “sacred artifacts”.

These three things in the hearts of the Japanese are as sacred as the "Jade Seal of Chuanguo" in the hearts of Chinese people, and even more than that, because the Jade Seal of Chuanguo is after all made by ordinary people, and the "Three Great Artifacts" are bestowed by gods The "divine thing" in the world, in China, is probably only comparable to the "Xuanyuan Sword" used by the Yellow Emperor.

Hirohito is willing to hand over the "Three Great Artifacts" to Jiang Weiguo, which makes him more painful than letting him hand over his own son to Jiang Weiguo as a hostage. It can be seen that Yuren is indeed determined.

After the "Three Great Artifacts" are in the hands of Jiang Weiguo, it means that Jiang Weiguo has a "hostage" to threaten the Japanese royal family. If the Japanese royal family is not obedient, Jiang Weiguo can throw these three "supreme sacred artifacts" into the cesspit .

——Jiang Weiguo is not stupid. He estimated that even if the Japanese imperial family handed over the three major artifacts, they must have handed over counterfeit products. Anyway, the three major artifacts have been kept secretly for many years, and it is extremely difficult for outsiders to see their true colors, let alone conduct research on them. After identification and research, how can Chinese experts identify the authenticity of the three artifacts sent by the Japanese.

To put it another way, even if the Japanese royal family is afraid of Jiang Weiguo and dare not fool Jiang Weiguo, the three artifacts handed over are real. In the future, if the Japanese rebel, the Japanese royal family can also take out three fake artifacts and declare that "this is the real thing. The real magic weapon, the magic weapon in the hands of the Chinese is actually a fake", then the fake becomes real, and the real becomes fake.

To put it bluntly, these three dead objects have no practical value at all, so they are a bit of a ghost when they are used by the Japanese royal family to fool the Japanese people.

"Hehe, what else?" Jiang Weiguo laughed, he was really amused by the Japanese.

"Ah?" Shigeru Kawagoe looked at Jiang Weiguo's smile with horror, he trembled and didn't know what to say.

"No more? Oh, then you can go!" Jiang Weiguo said casually.

"There is one more! There is one more!" Kawagoe Shigeru terrified, he shouted hoarsely, "There is one more condition!"

"What else?" Jiang Weiguo continued to play cat and mouse.

Shigeru Kawagoe gritted his teeth, and said with extreme difficulty: "His Majesty the Emperor of our country is willing... Willing to cancel the title of Emperor!"

"Oh?" Jiang Weiguo was a little surprised, "Hirohito is willing to cancel the emperor's title?"

Kawagoe Shigeru had tears in his eyes: "Yes.

His Majesty the Emperor is willing to abolish the title of the Emperor, and the Empire of Japan will also change its country name to 'Kingdom of Japan', and 'Emperor' to 'Tianwang' or 'King of Japan'!"

The title of the supreme ruler of Japan is "Emperor", which is common sense, but Japanese emperors have not been called "Emperor" from ancient times to the present. The emperor of Japan was a puppet without real power most of the time. In addition, the real history of Japan is only 700 years. In order to whitewash the "long history and long civilization" of the Japanese nation, the Japanese fabricated 1000 in the emperor's lineage. The emperors who did not exist in history have artificially lengthened Japanese history by almost 15 years (because these fourteen emperors are fictitious, so there is no historical record of what happened in Japan and abroad during the reign of these fourteen emperors Records of major events), only the No.[-] emperor in Japan was proved to "really exist" by historical facts, and the previous fourteen emperors, including the so-called Emperor Jimmu, were all fictional.

Before the Meiji Restoration, the titles of the supreme rulers of Japan were very confusing. They used "Tianhuang" several times, but more often they were "Dawang", "Maharaja", "Wonuwang", "King of Japan", "Emperor", etc. Until the Meiji Restoration, Emperor Meiji decided to abolish other titles and only use the title "Emperor".

Based on this historical basis, Hirohito is willing to abolish the title of "Emperor" and downgrade to "Emperor" or "King". , just abandoned a monarch number that has been used for less than 700 years.

The reason why Hirohito is willing to do this reflects his very meticulous and subtle thoughts. Hirohito knows that the Chinese have always regarded the entire East as the scope of Chinese civilization. In the East, only Chinese monarchs can be called emperors. Emperor, other countries are not allowed to be called kings. "Emperor" is the supreme title of the supreme ruler of Greater China. Only the kings of Greater China are eligible to be called emperors. How can the kings of subordinate countries have this qualification?Calling himself emperor means trying to be equal to Greater China. This is a very serious arrogance and rebellion, which the Chinese rulers cannot bear.

Although China is no longer an imperial country, it will not allow the king of a dependent country to call himself emperor, because this is still an arrogance and rebellion against the ideology of "China is the Lord of the East".

For example, Thailand, Thailand is now a subsidiary country of China. If the king of Thailand is in a daze, he will change the country name of Thailand to "Thai Empire", and then change his title to "Emperor of the Great Thai Empire", although it seems that it is just a name change However, this move is unbearable for the Chinese high-level.

The same is true for Japan. Since Japan has already planned to submit to China and become a vassal state of China, how can Japan still call itself an "empire"?How can the Emperor of Japan still call himself the "Emperor"?Therefore, changing the title of the country and the title of the emperor, on the surface, is Hirohito expressing his sincerity, but in fact it is releasing a very important political signal, and it is also to flatter the Chinese.

"Is this the last condition?" Jiang Weiguo looked at Shigeru Kawagoe with a smile.

"Yes... yes..." Shigeru Kawagoe stammered, "General Jiang, you see, we have given up so much... that's right!" He remembered something, and hurriedly added, "After the war, Japan's armed forces will Fully accept China's supervision, how the new Japanese army should be rebuilt and what it will look like, everything depends on China, and Japan's industries, especially heavy industry and military industry, will fully accept China's supervision!"

"Okay, you can go back!" Jiang Weiguo smiled and shook his hands, he just thought the Japanese were ridiculous.

"Little General Jiang..." Shigeru Kawagoe looked at Jiang Weiguo dumbfounded, "You haven't replied to me yet?"

Jiang Weiguo chuckled: "Reply? What reply? Is it necessary for me to reply? Are you entitled to my reply? I can see you today, just to give Mr. Jiang Baili and Ms. Jiang Zuomei a face, that's all!"

"Little General Jiang..." Shigeru Kawagoe was sweating like rain, his face ashen, "You...you rejected our peace proposal? Don't you really need to think about it?"

"Sun Tao!" Jiang Weiguo shouted to the door. He was too lazy to talk to the Japanese, and planned to let Sun Tao lead his guards to send Shigeru Kawagoe out by force.

Sun Tao immediately rushed into the room with a few big-armed guards, and together they rushed towards Shigeru Kawagoe with a murderous look.

"Wait a minute!" Kawagoe howled, "I have a few last words to say! General Jiang! You must listen!"

Jiang Weiguo looked at Shigeru Kawagoe who had been held back by Sun Tao and others: "Speak, I only give you 1 minute!"

Kawagoe Shigeru said anxiously: "Little General Jiang! We have really surrendered! We are convinced of you and China! Yes, we used to be arrogant and arrogant. We overestimated ourselves and underestimated China. , made a series of irrational, self-defeating, and self-defeating stupid things, so that it came to this sad ending today.

We have already eaten our own bitter fruit, and evil will be rewarded with evil. We have been beaten by you and China, and we are really convinced!We look at China at this time just like Japan looked at Datang after being defeated by Datang in the Battle of Baijiangkou 300 years ago!General Jiang, you have made us Japanese fear China deeply.

As long as you hold your hands high and open the door, Japan will be China's most loyal vassal country in the future!We don't expect to have anything more. We only hope that Japan will have the last vestiges of the same way that Britain can finally retain an England, and that's all.

Little General Jiang!Paying equal attention to grace and power can truly conquer people's hearts!We have already felt your 'power', please let us feel your 'en' next!Since ancient times in China, one powerful dynasty after another has almost always attached equal importance to grace and power to subdue the surrounding foreign nations. None of them are exterminated, and extermination is definitely not a long-term solution!It cannot bring real long-term peace and stability to China! "

Jiang Weiguo couldn't help laughing: "I am really comfortable listening to these words, but I know that these are just flattery words you came up with to paralyze me. I have already seen clearly the essence of your Japanese population's honey-belly sword, so , you don’t come here any more.

The Tang Dynasty beat you like a turtle for 900 years. After 900 years, didn't your Toyotomi Hideyoshi launch a war of aggression against North Korea and China again?Your wolf ambition will never die!Even if it goes out, it will come back to life.

Raise your hand?Open the door?Do you Japanese have the face to say these two words?When you launched the Sino-Japanese War of [-]-[-], did you hold your hands high against China?Have you opened your eyes?When you launched the September [-]th Incident and the July [-]th Incident, did you hold your hands high against China?Have you opened your eyes?When you killed people like hemp, raped and plundered on the land of China, did you hold your hands high?Have you opened your eyes?When you are strong, you will repay your kindness and do evil. When you are weak, you will be servile and beg for mercy. How can such an ugly, inferior, and barbaric nation be let go?How can we not kill them all, cut the weeds and root them out?Sun Tao, throw him out! "

"Little General Jiang!" Shigeru Kawagoe, who was turned to the door by Sun Tao and other guards, shouted hoarsely, "Don't regret it!"

"Regret?" Jiang Weiguo raised his hand and motioned for Sun Tao and other guards to drag Kawagoe Shigeru back. He felt ridiculous, "Why would I regret it?"

Shigeru Kawagoe was panting violently. He looked at Jiang Weiguo, and there was a hint of sternness on his face, which was a kind of impatience like a dog jumping over a wall: "Little General Jiang, if you intend to drive us Japanese to extinction, then we There is no choice but to carry out an all-or-nothing death.

I know, you must be laughing at us, how can we have the right to die with you?Yes, we are not qualified to confront you head-on, but don't forget that it is you who created an unconventional tactic, which you call 'terrorist attack'.

General Jiang, you know that we still have a lot of wealth in our hands, including the five thousand tons of gold.

A small part of the gold is in Japan, and most of it is in India, Indonesia, the Philippines and other places. The Japanese army buried them in hundreds of places. Except for a very few people, no one knows the specific burial place of the gold.

If we don't speak up, that gold will never see the light of day.

General Jiang, what is the total value of [-] tons of gold and other treasures?You know it.

Billions or even tens of billions of dollars!We plan to dedicate most of it to you and hand it over to China, in exchange for Japan's lifeline, and a small part for the reconstruction of Japan after the war. However, if you insist on killing us, then we have no hope. We We will not dedicate treasures to you, hand them over to China, and will not rebuild Japan after the war, because Japan has already perished, and you have already destroyed it, and there is no need to rebuild it. Then, this huge amount of wealth will be used by us Come as campaign funds!"

"Activity funds for terrorist attacks on China?" The smile on Jiang Weiguo's face disappeared, replaced by Senran.

Shigeru Kawagoe did not nod, nor shook his head: "China is very, very big now, and China will be even bigger after the war, because the vast territory that still belongs to Japan will become China's new territory after the war. We can imagine that after the war What a vast territory China is.

Just because China is so big, no matter how well-defended the Chinese government and Chinese military are against Chinese territory, they cannot make China invulnerable and airtight, and those pervasive attackers will always find loopholes and opportunities .

You can guard against some, but not all, and you can guard against it for a while, but not forever.

If a city is planted with a bomb, if a school is attacked by militants, maybe only a few hundred people will die. A mere few hundred people is not worth mentioning in wartime, but in peacetime, it is terrible The numbers are up!Such a terrorist attack will be impossible to prevent!In order to defend against such terrorist attacks, how much energy and financial resources should the Chinese government invest? "

"Dare to threaten me?" A smile appeared on Jiang Weiguo's face again, but he smiled angrily, "You know that if you do this, if a Chinese dies, how many Japanese will be buried with him?"

"Don't dare! 1 of us dare not threaten you!" Kawagoe Shigeru seemed to regain a little courage, and his whole body seemed to be full of "righteousness", which made him raise his head for the first time in front of Jiang Weiguo, "We absolutely dare not do this Do it, we absolutely don't want to do it, because we know the premise and consequence of doing it, that is the demise of the Japanese nation, so we only hope that you, General Jiang, will raise your hand and be lenient. In this way, China will only benefit from it. No harm.

We know that Japanese lives are worthless in your heart. Even if 7000 million Japanese lives are only exchanged for 7000 Chinese lives, it is extremely uneconomical in your opinion, but we have nothing. There are only lives left, so we can afford 7 million deaths, but can you afford [-] deaths? "

Jiang Weiguo suppressed the fury in his heart, and ordered in a cold tone: "Get him out!"

"Little General Jiang! Please think twice!" Kawagoe Shigeru screamed while being wrestled out by Sun Tao and other guards.

"Fucking little Japan! How dare you threaten me!" Jiang Weiguo slapped his palm on the table angrily.

Jiang Weiguo knew that the last "threat" of the Japanese was a poor method, but after thinking about it carefully, his scalp felt a little numb.

As we all know, the United States in later generations is the most powerful country in the world, but it is still tormented by terrorism, because the United States is "a little bit tough" on the Arab world, which has led to the birth of a large number of terrorist organizations and terrorists to carry out terrorist attacks against the United States. The most typical The representative is naturally the "terrorist tycoon" Osama bin Laden.

The "911" that Bin Laden launched against the United States resulted in the death of nearly 3000 people in the United States. The death of nearly 3000 people is not a major event in wartime, but it is an earth-shattering event in peacetime, and the 911/2000 incident also caused the United States to lose A full US$2 billion, accounting for 1% of the U.S. GDP that year, brought a loss of almost US$[-] trillion to the global economy. At the same time, the psychological blow to the American people was unprecedented, comparable to the Pearl Harbor incident .
