    "The first battalion captured the palace and sent all the valuables back to the ship! The second battalion went to Little Japan's treasury to see if there was any gold or anything like that. The third battalion went to capture the bank! The other troops began to clear out the small Japanese treasury.  Japan, transport all valuables back to the ship! If anyone dares to stop them, they will be killed!" the commander of the 37th Division ordered.

    On November 9, the Eighth Army defeated the stubborn Japanese army in Tokyo and occupied the entire Tokyo.  The main force of the Eighth Army continued to pursue the Japanese army, while the 37th Division and the 6th Marine Brigade stayed in Tokyo and were responsible for defending the forward base.  On the other hand, they are plundering Japan's wealth.  Although the Japanese government is extremely poor, Emperor Meiji, senior government officials, and big entrepreneurs are extremely rich.  There are also companies such as banks that have a lot of gold and the like. The Chinese team will obviously not let go of these things.

    Soon, the 37th Division and the 6th Marine Brigade, a total of more than 20,000 people, began to loot the city of Tokyo in squad units.  The royal palace, the hinterlands of high-ranking government officials, the homes of big businessmen, and banks have all become key places for looting.

    Emperor Meiji fled in a hurry and only took away a small part of the wealth in the palace.  After the Japanese army captured the palace.  Soldiers open Emperor Meiji's internal crossbow.  All the gold and silver treasures were taken away.  Some antiques in the palace and decorations made of gold and silver were also taken away.  A conservative estimate puts this wealth at around 100 million yuan.  It seems that the Emperor of Japan is not rich either. After using all the power of the country to develop armaments, Emperor Meiji also spent a lot of money.  Otherwise, the Japanese royal family has accumulated thousands of years of experience.  How could it be so little money?  During the robbery of the palace, some remaining Japanese guards wanted to resist, but the result was that they were all killed.  Some female officials in the palace who did not have time to escape were also brutally tortured.

    After the Japanese troops withdrew, many senior government officials also withdrew.  However, many people still didn't have time to escape.  These people's mansions still suffered.  A group of Chinese soldiers broke into a compound, which was the residence of a reserve general of the Japanese army.  Although this reserve general is over sixty years old, he still has a very hot temper.  After Chinese soldiers rushed into his hinterland.  He immediately cursed.  But then.  A pistol was pressed against his head.

    "Baga! You bastards, you damn guys! God will not let you go for the crimes you committed against Japan!" The old guy still yelled.  If the katana in his hand hadn't been snatched away before, he might have fought back.

    "Bang!" The gun rang out.  The platoon leader who led the team shot him to death.  The reserve general fell to the ground, with blood bleeding from the bullet hole in his forehead. His eyes were wide open, as if he couldn't believe that the Chinese soldiers really dared to kill him.

    "Search the entire mansion and take away all valuables! Anyone who dares to resist will be killed without mercy!" The platoon leader gave the order directly without even looking at the killed reserve general.  Hundreds of thousands of little Japanese were easily defeated, let alone these people.

    The soldiers rushed into each room, rummaging through boxes and cabinets, looking for things from before.  Upon encountering any obstruction, he immediately opened fire and soon robbed all the valuables in the hinterland.

    Scenes like this are happening all over Tokyo.  The Chinese soldiers swarmed like locusts.  They break into every home looking for valuables.  If you cooperate, it's fine. If you resist, you're doomed.  When encountering a beautiful Japanese woman, the soldiers couldn't help but vent their lust.  In short, the soldiers who received the order did not regard these Japanese as human beings at all.

    When these Japanese who had no time to escape discovered that Chinese soldiers would attack civilians, they immediately ran away.  However, the entire Tokyo is already under the control of the Chinese Army, where can they escape?  Many government officials, who had better brains, packed up their belongings and fled to the embassies of various countries in Japan.  In particular, the embassies of major countries such as Britain, France, the United States, Russia, Germany, and Austria have become a good place for these Japanese to avoid trouble.  The ministers of various countries, in the spirit of humanitarianism, allowed these Japanese to enter the embassy.  However, the embassy was not very big to begin with, and it quickly became overcrowded.

    Gradually, the Chinese Communist Party also discovered that something was wrong. Why were there fewer and fewer wealthy people? Later, they discovered that a large number of wealthy people had hid in the embassies of Western powers.  This situation immediately reacted to the eighthIn the hands of General Zhao Bowen, commander of the group army.

    General Zhao Bowen on the one hand ordered people to negotiate with various embassies, and on the other hand, reported the situation to the base camp.

    "Your Excellency, Minister, please hand over these Japanese to us immediately! They are all dangerous elements, so as not to cause harm to Your Excellency, Minister!" Major Yu Zhaokun, commander of the third battalion of the 371st Regiment of the 37th Division, told the British Embassy in Japan  Minister Buck negotiated.  Outside the embassy, ??a company of squadrons has surrounded the embassy. Heavy machine guns and mortars are set up on simple bunkers, with black muzzles aimed at the British Embassy in Japan, which covers an area of ??500 square meters.

    Inside the embassy, ??the military attach¨¦ also led the embassy¡¯s guards and confronted the Chinese troops across the wall.  However, they only had rifles and other light weapons, but no heavy machine guns, let alone artillery.  Therefore, when these British soldiers looked at the rows of heavy machine guns outside, their scalps felt numb.

    "Mr. Major, this is the British Embassy, ??which is a territory belonging to the British Empire. Do you want to declare war on the British Empire by leading people to surround the British Empire's embassy? Mr. Major, take your people out of here immediately, otherwise, you will bear the consequences!  "Barker, the British Minister to Japan, said with a very arrogant look on his face.  The threat in the words was very obvious.

    "Your Excellency, Minister, we have no intention of provoking Britain. However, these people taken in by Your Excellency, Minister, are all Japanese militants. These Japanese have killed the soldiers of the empire. Please, Your Excellency, Minister, hand over these Japanese to us!" Yu Zhao  Major Kun was not afraid and still argued with reason!

    "Haha! Militants? Aren't those women and children also militants? They are just civilians. Your country's practice of killing civilians is a violation of human rights! The British Empire will officially lodge a protest with your country  Yes!" Minister Buck said arrogantly.

    A trace of anger flashed in Major Yu Zhaokun's eyes. If possible, he would have wanted to take out his gun and shoot this annoying envoy immediately.  However, shooting a country's minister to death was a clear act of war. This was something that a small battalion commander like him, a major, could not bear the responsibility for.

    The two sides fell into a confrontation. The British minister refused to hand over the Japanese, and the Chinese team did not dare to attack the British embassy.

    Seeing that the Chinese ** team had not taken any further action, the British Minister showed a proud smile on his face, as if he was very satisfied with his performance just now.  In his opinion, this undoubtedly shows that no one dares to challenge the majesty of the British Empire!

    "Battal Commander! A call from headquarters!" Suddenly, a communications soldier ran over quickly with a telegram, his face full of joy.

    Major Yu Zhaokun took the telegram and read it, and burst into laughter.

    There were only a few words in the telegram: "His Majesty the Emperor has an order. Anyone who dares to stop him will be shot to death!"

    "Your Excellency, Minister! I formally inform you that His Majesty the Emperor of our country has issued an order that anyone who dares to stop the Imperial Army from pursuing these Japanese militants will be shot to death!" Major Yu Zhaokun looked at Minister Buck and said in a cold voice.

    "What do you want to do? This is the British Legation! If you dare to use force here, it will be like declaring war on the British Empire!" Minister Buck shouted crazily.

    "So what if we declare war? It's not like we haven't fought before?" Major Yu Zhaokun said disdainfully.  Then, he raised his hand.  After receiving the instructions, the soldiers suddenly heard the sound of rifle bolts being pulled neatly.  Obviously, the moment Major Yu Zhaokun lowered his hand was the time to shoot.

    Seeing that the Chinese ** team seemed to be serious about taking action, beads of sweat suddenly appeared on Minister Buck¡¯s forehead.  What he relied on was nothing more than the reputation of the British Empire.  If the Chinese ** team ignores this, then he is finished.  The dozens of guards inside the legation were obviously no match for these Chinese troops who were armed to the teeth.

    "Your Excellency, Minister, I will give you one last chance to hand over those Japanese!" Major Yu Zhaokun's eyes were filled with murderous intent.

    Seeing Major Yu Zhaokun¡¯s cold eyes, Minister Buck couldn¡¯t help but shudder.  He believed that if he dared to refuse, these crazy Chinese soldiers would really open fire.

    "Come here, drive those Japanese out!" After hesitating for a few seconds, Minister Buck finally issued the order to expel the Japanese. Although he was very reluctant, there was no other way.

    "Your Excellency, Minister, you will find that this is a wise choice!" Major Yu Zhaokun said with a smile.

    The Japanese who were expelled from the embassy were crying loudly, but no one cared about their fate.  The Chinese ** team immediately took away all the Japanese.

    The British embassy has set an example, and other embassies naturally do not dare to take in these Japanese.  All the Japanese who fled into the legation were driven awaycome out.  Afterwards, they were robbed of all their money and thrown into a prisoner of war camp.  These Japanese people have many high-ranking officials, and they may be able to come in handy when the time comes.

    The whole of Tokyo was groaning in pain under the ravages of the squadron!
