Before the United States dropped the atomic bomb, it had dropped 63 million leaflets in advance, so why did the Japanese insist on not leaving?

When it comes to crazy militants, everyone will definitely think of Hitler; when it comes to crazy militant groups, everyone will think of Japan in World War II. Although the Nazis in Germany were also very crazy, but in Japan during World War II, men, women and children were deeply influenced by militaristic ideas, not only the soldiers believed that Japan's aggression was not wrong, but those teenagers and even children in Japan were holding guns and bayonets in school to learn how to be loyal to the "emperor".

In fact, the United States also carefully considered it before dropping the atomic bomb on Hiroshima. After all, the victory of the anti-fascist alliance was already doomed, but Japan has stubbornly resisted. But the main purpose of the U.S. military was to force Japan to end the war, not really to cause more casualties. As a result, the U.S. military distributed 63 million leaflets to the Japanese in advance before dropping the bomb, informing them of the atomic bomb delivery plan and where it was dropped. Since advance notice had been given, why did Hiroshima still cause tens of thousands of deaths and injuries at that time? There are three reasons for this.

It was the crazy plan of "100 million jade fragments" that the Japanese army vigorously promoted at that time. What does it mean, in fact, it is better to die in the glorious battle of the country than to resolutely surrender. Even now, it sounds ridiculous. The behavior of the Japanese army at that time was obviously unjust aggression, where did they have the face to demand that everyone be sacrificed? At that time, the Japanese, under the ideology of militarism, had long become insensitive.

Both the elderly and the children were armed with a grenade in their hands, ready to die with the landing of the American troops. Even some Japanese officers, because they could not accept the surrender of the country, chose to cut their stomachs collectively. Not to mention Hiroshima, which was known as the "military capital" at that time, and the locals had long been under the influence of various extreme ideas and did not care about their lives.

The second point is that the Japanese underestimated the power of the atomic bomb. Although the leaflet clearly stated the possible power of the atomic bomb, for the Japanese at that time, it was just an untested shell, what if the launch failed? In fact, this is also because the Japanese army has neglected the military strength of the US military. If they hadn't been so conceited and arrogant, perhaps the people of Hiroshima wouldn't have lost their lives in vain.

The third point is the displacement caused by the war, and the Japanese have long been surprised. Since the establishment of the Anti-Fascist League, the Japanese army has also become the target of public criticism because of its own acts of aggression. Various shells and bombings often invaded Japan. The people have long been accustomed to those war scenes, even if they want to escape, where can they escape? Everywhere in Japan is a bloody war, fleeing abroad, will anyone be willing to accept them?

Although decades have passed since the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima, the damage to the Japanese is difficult to digest. The source of all these evils is the tragedy caused by Japan's crazy aggression and expansion on the spot, and it belongs to self-inflicted blame and does not deserve the slightest sympathy.
