When we think of Japan in World War 2, the first thing that comes to mind is the inhumane war of aggression waged by the Japanese aggressors against China. But today we want to take you to see what kind of living environment in Japan during World War 2.
For the invaded countries, it must be that the people are not happy and cannot eat enough. Especially for China, on the territory of China invaded by the Japanese, the puppet Nanjing National Government that once established Wang Jingwei, under such a government, the life of the Chinese people is very difficult. The way they use is food rationing, but the grains they use are brown rice or broken rice, and many of the foods are spoiled foods, so it is likely that their lives will be in danger after eating.
So for Japan at that time, what was the life of the Japanese people? Because of the war, life in Japan became very rich for a time. Because at that time Japan occupied the northeast region of our country, and the northeast region we all know that the land there is fertile, the production of crops is very good, after the invasion of Japan will be a lot of food crops in the northeast to Japan. As a result, the Chinese people lost a lot of grain, while the living standards of ordinary people in Japan continued to improve, until 1938, when the living standards of the Japanese people reached a peak.
For Japan, in the 1930s, there was a very large economic and military disparity between China and Japan, and Japan undoubtedly led China in all aspects. Therefore, at the beginning of their Tsinghua War, Japan's country not only did not become poor because of the war, but became rich because of the war.
However, Japan was not only satisfied with the aggression against China and began to form an alliance with Germany, but because of the distance between the two countries, Germany and Japan, although they joined forces, were also in the situation of the two countries fighting separately. And Japan's ambitions were too great to sneak attack Pearl Harbor, and in the battle to attack Pearl Harbor, Japan was victorious. The short victory made Japan very happy, but then the European powers such as the United States and Britain began to impose sanctions on Japan.
After the United States joined the war, Japan and its people began dark days. Although the Battle of Pearl Harbor was won, after the immediate introduction of the larger battlefield, there was a great shortage of crops and materials in Japan. This caused chaos in the country, the black market flooded with all kinds of disasters, and the people began a period of suffering in the war.
As the war continued, Japan needed more and more materials, and these heavy burdens fell on the civilian population. Well, even if the grain production is enough, it is not enough to support the consumption of the Japanese army outside. Sometimes even all the crops in an acre of land must be handed in to meet the targets given by the Japanese government. In this way, all the people of Japan experienced the real suffering of the war.
Until the end, life in Japan did not improve, because the United States bombed Japan many times, making Japan a place where people did not live. It is precisely because Japan knows that it can no longer defeat the US invasion of China, and there is no way to really push forward this part of the war, and finally had to choose to surrender.
This may also confirm the saying that the Heavenly Dao is good for reincarnation, and the heavens have spared no one.
