Time comes in 1945, and the Allied forces reported frequent good news on Pacific battlefield . The US military continued to bomb Tokyo, the capital of Japan, forcing Japan to surrender. However, at that time, Japan was prepared to "100 million jade pieces" and refused to surrender. Considering that attacking Japan's mainland would result in huge casualties, on August 6 and 9, 1945, the United States dropped an atomic bomb to Japan's Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The explosion of the atomic bomb shocked Japan a lot. The emperor of Japan held a royal meeting and decided to accept the Allied forces Potsdam announcement and surrender unconditionally. So on August 15, 1945, the Japanese Emperor announced his unconditional surrender.

So if the United States had not dropped an atomic bomb on Japan, would Japan surrender? The answer is that you will definitely surrender.

Why do you say so? Because Japan was at the end of its strength at this time, the domestic economic crisis and the energy crisis , the people's anti-war sentiment was also very high. The most important thing is that the source of troops had dried up at this time, and the standards for conscription were greatly reduced compared with the early stages of the War of Resistance. According to the war loss ratio at the end of the War of Resistance Against Japan, the combat effectiveness of the National Army and the Eighth Route Army was basically the same as that of the Japanese Army, and even slightly better than that of the Japanese Army.

At that time, at the end of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the number of national troops was still huge, and the Eighth Route Army's ranks were much larger than the early stages of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression. It can be seen from the launch of the Hundred Regiments War . In addition, the international community still had a steady stream of aid to China at that time, so even if the United States did not drop an atomic bomb on Japan, the Soviet Union did not send troops to Northeast China and declare war on Japan. We can defeat Japan by relying solely on our own strength. The worst result is how many years later the War of Resistance Against Japan will be won.
