After all, China has a vast territory and abundant resources.
Once you find something that is not going well, ban it immediately, and the loss will only be one place, not big.
However, Japan is only such a big place.
Once various barren mineral veins are destructively exploited, Japan's originally small mineral deposits will probably not be left much.
As a country's strategic resource, once most of the country's mineral deposits are destroyed, both the economy and people's livelihood will be greatly affected.
Rebuilding the military and industrial systems is even more out of the question.
Regardless of the national economy and people's livelihood, almost all resources must rely on imports.
Subject to others.
The pollution caused by indiscriminate mining will also make the environmental damage caused by deforestation in Japan more serious.
After so many years, whether Japan is still suitable for human habitation will be questioned.
A good natural environment requires thousands of years of natural evolution to form, but it only takes a year or two to destroy it.
In just one year, after Yu Sheng teamed up with a group of American business giants to start logging on the Japanese islands, forests in Hokkaido, Kyushu, and other areas of Japan were extensively cut down.
The power of industrialization cannot be underestimated.
Americans were far more efficient in logging than Yu Sheng and the Japanese expected.
Many mountain forests have become bare before our eyes.
Once there is a lot of rainfall, geological disasters are inevitable.
In the early morning of December 23, 1948, in Sugamo Prison in Tokyo, Japan, Japanese Class-A war criminals who were sentenced to hanging in the Tokyo Trial were lined up and sent to the gallows.
Today is the day for these evildoers to die, and no one will be spared.
I woke up early in the morning to see off these Class A war criminals.
It stands to reason that during the execution, except for the media reporters invited by the Allies.
No one else is allowed to enter Sugamo Prison in Tokyo, Japan.
However, with Yu Sheng's current status, he is naturally beyond these rules.
He came to Sugamo Prison today for no other purpose than to witness history.
Although Americans do not allow anyone to bring video equipment to the scene, however.
It is enough to see with your own eyes these Japanese Class-A war criminals who have harmed countless Chinese people die in front of you.
These Japanese Class A war criminals all held high positions before Japan was defeated.
In order to gain a reputation for humanity, Americans did not treat these people badly.
Therefore, all of them were raised fat and white in Sugamo Prison.
However, the demeanor and demeanor of these people when facing death really disappoints the rest of their lives.
Twenty death row prisoners.
No one died generously.
Most of them were livid and trembling.
Two of them even excreted and urinated, making the execution site stink.
People in high positions sometimes seem to be powerful and majestic, but their nature is still ordinary people.
Even, due to its superior environment.
He received less tempering and a lot of tempering of his character.
Not as good as an ordinary person.
The source of its majestic momentum is simply the power of the system itself.
After these death row prisoners were brought to Sugamo Prison to pray in front of the Buddha statues or other religious statues specially designed for these war criminals, a group of prisoners began to draw lots to decide who would go to the gallows first.
According to the development of real history, he was hanged.
There are only seven people.
According to the order of the draw, the first one is Tojo Hideki, followed by Doihara Kenji, Itagaki Seishiro, and then Hirota Koki and three others.
And the drawing of lots for these twenty people is far more troublesome than the original drawing of lots for seven people.
Execution time.
It's also much longer.

The first person to go to the gallows was Aoi Shigemitsu, followed by Kuniaki Oiso, Hideki Tojo, and neither Kenji Doihara nor Seishiro Itagaki were in the top ten.
As the saying goes, the fox will be sad when the rabbit dies.
Seeing their former high-ranking colleagues hanged on the gallows in front of them, the psychological pressure was far beyond what these pampered Class-A war criminals could bear.
Itagaki Seishiro murmured a prayer, Tojo Hideki burst into tears, and the Matsui stone roots were earth-colored.
Suddenly, Matsui Iwane saw Yu Sheng standing in the crowd supervising the execution, and said in English to the American soldier supervising the execution: "I want to say a few words to Mr.
Yu Sheng."
Yu Sheng was a bit baffled.
He and Matsui Iwane were not familiar with each other.
Matsui Iwane, although in later generations, was identified as the mastermind of the Nanjing Massacre and the main leader who led the Shanghai Expeditionary Force.
However, Yu Sheng knew that Asaka Gong Jiuyan was the main orderer of the Nanjing Massacre.
Moreover, the two people have never faced each other.
Even at the International Military Tribunal for the Far East, after Yu Sheng and a thousand witnesses from China were directly interrogated, the lawyers in the Japanese legal team who defended Matsui Iwane gave up on the cross-examination.
Let Ichiro Kiyose and other lawyers do what they want.
Therefore, there is not much relationship between the two.
Yu Sheng could not guess what Matsui Iwane was going to say to him.
Matsui Iwane made such a fuss, which attracted the attention of the whole audience.
After asking Yu Sheng and the warden for their opinions, the American soldiers agreed that Matsui Iwane would step forward and talk to Yu Sheng.
But, it's only five minutes.
Matsui Iwane is a veteran in the Japanese military.
When the Japanese invaded Nanjing, he was nearly sixty years old.
Very broad experience.
Moreover, Matsui Iwane is very familiar with China.
His father, Matsui Takekuni, is a famous sinologist.
Influenced by his family education, Matsui Iwane has been very familiar with Chinese culture since he was a child.
In 1904, after the Russo-Japanese War broke out, Matsui Iwane interrupted his studies and entered China with the army.
Because of his bravery and outstanding performance in battle, he served as a member of the Chinese squad of the Japanese General Staff Headquarters and the military attaché stationed in Guangdong.
Since then, he has established a broad network of contacts in China.
Among the connections Matsui Iwane knew in China, Chen Qimei was recommended first, followed by Chiang Kai-shek, whose original name was Jiang Zhiqing, and who was currently suppressing bandits in China.
With these two powerful connections, Matsui Iwane was able to thrive in China.
In 1915, Matsui Iwane was transferred to the Japanese military attaché in Shanghai.
In 1922, Matsui Iwane was transferred to head of the Harbin secret service.
Become a China expert in the Japanese military circles.
Matsui Iwane has always believed in Greater Asiaticism.
That is to say, it advocates the unity of Asia with Japan as the center to jointly fight against Europe and the United States.
Therefore, before the Japanese invaded China on a large scale, Matsui Iwane's stance towards China was vague, with neither absolute hostility nor absolute friendship.
In 1936, Matsui Iwane visited Hu Hanmin, Li Zongren, Bai Chongxi, Chen Jitang and others in a private capacity.
Matsui Iwane tried to persuade these important figures in China to recognize Manchukuo, but he repeatedly encountered obstacles.
Even Chiang Kai-shek, who had always had a good relationship with Matsui Iwane, ignored him.
Matsui Iwane felt humiliated.
I was very hurt, and the area of my psychological shadow was simply incalculable.
Therefore, I changed my attitude and preached to teach China a lesson.
Because I knew a little about Matsui Iwane, Yu Sheng was not surprised at all that Matsui Iwane could speak Chinese.
But Iwane Matsui, who is now very old, asked: "Mr.
Yu, I heard that there was a strange explosion at the New Asia Hotel in Shanghai back then, which was caused by the explosion of flour.
And Mr.

Yu was in Shanghai at that time, and Yu Sir, do you have any impression?”
Yu Sheng picked his ears and replied easily: "Some impressions."
Matsui Iwane added: "Some time ago, my defense lawyer died due to a strange explosion.
According to the investigation, it was also caused by a flour explosion.
Mr.
Yu was in Tokyo at that time, does Mr.
Yu have any impressions?"
Yu Sheng replied unceremoniously: "Matsui Iwane, if you have anything to say, just say it quickly so as not to delay your time on the road."
Matsui Iwane sighed.
Asked: "These two things were done by Mr.
Yu" When Matsui Iwane asked, Yu Sheng was a little surprised.
The Americans didn't find any clues, but this old guy could actually be suspicious of this.
It's really not simple.
Yu Sheng shook his head and smiled without answering.
Get ready to leave.
Because, no matter how you answer it for the rest of your life, Americans will investigate it.
It's better to pretend to be disdainful to answer and have an expression of "you've got the wrong person".
Matsui Iwane doesn't care whether he turns around and leaves for the rest of his life.
Then he said: "I am a Greater Asiatist.
Although Japan was defeated, China should be able to rise.
Please show mercy to Mr.
Yu."
When Matsui Iwane said this, the surrounding Japanese Class-A war criminals who could understand Chinese were shocked.
Matsui Iwane is considered a veteran among them.
I have never been so polite to anyone.
As for Yu Sheng's information, most of these people have also read it, and think of what Matsui Iwane said.
Many Class A war criminals who originally viewed Yu Sheng as a figure in the entertainment industry changed their perspective when they looked at Yu Sheng again.
Yu Sheng didn't know what else Iwane Matsui knew, and he actually inferred this.
In order to avoid the Americans becoming suspicious, they all avoided answering.
Pretend not to hear.
Knowing that Matsui Iwane turned into a dead body on the gallows.
Yu Shengcai said: "I am different from you.
The lack of humanity of the Japanese does not mean that I have no humanity.
My conquests do not require the slaughter of innocent people.
Sooner or later you will be assimilated into us, and we are still us." 1948 passed quickly when twenty Japanese Class-A war criminals were turned into corpses on the gallows.
Entering 1949, one era ends and another is about to begin.
When 1948 ended and 1949 began, Americans were not in a happy mood.
Due to the end of World War II and the reduction of war orders, Americans' first postwar economic recession finally occurred in 1948.
In 1948, American industrial and agricultural output grew extremely slowly.
Unemployment reached five percent.
However, the Soviets have developed rapidly in the past few years.
So fast that it makes Americans restless.
Moreover, Chiang Kai-shek was losing ground on the battlefield.
Because of the mobile phone, a factor that affected the balance of war, the defeat was faster than I can remember in the rest of my life.
Americans are afraid that the Chinese and Soviets will join forces and pose a huge threat to the United States.

Therefore, in 1949, in order to expand their market and economic system, and also to prevent and contain the Soviet Union, the Americans' attitude towards the Japanese underwent major changes.
The Americans shifted from tacitly supporting Japan's economic recovery to blatantly supporting the reconstruction of Japan's economic and industrial systems.
In February 1949, U.S.
President Truman asked Detroit banker Joseph Dodge to serve as MacArthur's economic and financial adviser to guide Japan's new economic plan, namely the implementation of the "Nine Principles of Economic Stabilization" and the "Three Principles of Wage Stabilization."
This economic plan is known as the Dodge Route in history.
What makes this economic plan different from the past is that the benefits that the Americans have given the Japanese are simply too numerous to count.
If the Soviets' support for neighboring countries is still friendly exchanges between neighbors, then the Americans' support for the Japanese in this Dodge Route is simply a super show.
This economic plan gave up direct material assistance from the Americans to Japan.
However, the financial foundation of the Japanese was quickly stabilized.
Moreover, the Americans sent a large number of experts to tailor appropriate fiscal and taxation policies for the Japanese.
At the same time, Americans' advanced technology was also exported to Japan in large quantities.
On this basis, Japanese talents experienced rapid economic development in the 1950s and 1960s.
New industries emerged in large numbers, and industry and other industries began to flourish.
The Japanese economic system was immediately integrated into the entire world.
Inflation stopped and the control of materials ended.
However, although Americans support the Japanese economy, it is not the Japanese who benefit the most from it.
After the Japanese market and economy returned to normal, Yu Sheng joined forces with other large and small chaebols in the United States to take advantage of Japan's economic downturn and acquire resources and industries at low prices.
Only then did the real value emerge.
If calculated in terms of value, the large and small American chaebols united with Yu Sheng have made dozens of times as much profit in Japan.
And this is just the beginning.
As Japan's economy recovers and develops, the value of these resources and industries will also increase rapidly.
As for the Americans' economic aid plan to Japan, the first to benefit are people like Yu Sheng.
After Japan's defeat, the economic system collapsed, and the Zaibatsu were disbanded.
There are basically no rich people in the country.
There are very few people who have money to invest in factories and various industries.
After the policy was liberalized, the first batch of funds that poured in still belonged to Yu Sheng, a group of wealth tycoons.
And the Americans did not stop it.
Not to mention, those who really run the United States are themselves a group of wealth tycoons.
When the Americans set up an economic operating system for the Japanese, they also completely subordinated the Japanese economic system to the American economic system.
The Dodge route's single exchange rate system makes the yen and the U.S. dollar closely linked, and cannot escape the influence of the U.S. economy.
Americans didn't mind, and the connection became a little tighter.
Although Japan no longer poses a threat to the United States, it is better to be wary of the younger brother who once attacked Pearl Harbor and tried to counterattack the boss.
Therefore, for the Japanese, the American economic plan also brings pain and joy.
After all, the first and biggest beneficiaries are not the Japanese.
Moreover, Americans' investments also follow the rules of capital seeking profits, and are mainly short-term and fast. s: Thank you to book friends Hu Yansheng and book friends Dazed for their monthly votes.
