Since the Meiji Restoration, Japan's comprehensive national strength has been greatly improved. With the rapid development of various industrial systems, there has been a serious shortage of various resources, and it is imperative to solve the resources needed for development at this time.
As we all know, Japan is an island country surrounded by the sea on all sides, and its resources are very scarce, in order to solve the situation of serious shortage of resources. The only way to do that is to expand outward to other countries to grab resources, and Japan's preferred target is China.
It is reported that in order to launch a war of aggression, in addition to developing a large number of armaments, Japan also fabricated two lies to deceive the Japanese people at that time and find various reasons for them to launch a war of aggression.
According to the two lies that Japan made up at that time, they were:
1. The Li clan, who founded the Tang Dynasty, did not have an orthodox Han Chinese in their blood, but an ethnic minority from the northwest region. According to their thinking, since ethnic minorities can rule the land of China, it is only natural that they should rule these areas.
2, the land of China, since the Yuan Dynasty, only one Han Dynasty established dynasty is the Ming Dynasty, and the current northeast region, Mongolia region, and part of the northwest region do not belong to the Ming Dynasty. Since they can turn other people's lands into their own, there is nothing wrong with Japan ruling these lands.
At that time, in order to launch a war of aggression, Japan could be said to have painstakingly found various reasons to deceive its own people and make these ignorant citizens the machines of their war. No matter what kind of lies you concoct and how advanced your weapons are, the Tiger and Wolf Division will never defeat the Righteous Division, and World War II is the best proof. The sons and daughters of China, lacking clothes and bullets, finally defeated the Japanese aggressors with their strong will, and facts have proved that evil can never defeat justice.
