1932: Playing with the Japanese Communist Party with a doll

Anti-communism was one of the most important reasons why Britain and France adopted a policy of appeasement towards Germany, in addition to political, economic, demographic and psychological trauma-induced pacifist ideas and defeatist sentiments.

As the saying goes in the British House of Lords: "We would rather see Hitler raise his right hand in London than see a socialist government come to Britain."

These gentlemen, who had a deep class hatred for communism and had long been stricken with "Redphobia," viewed Germany as a "barrier against communism" and hoped that the Reds and Nazis would fight each other.

Hitler was very keenly aware of this and took full advantage of it, raising the banner of anti-communism high, further confusing these stupid old men and ultimately dragging the world into a tragic war.

Now, although President Springfield was destined to "join the Communists," he could not do so publicly because his internal problems had not yet been completely resolved, and he could only find a way around it.

Mark is only responsible for giving orders, Springfield is responsible for delivering orders, and as for execution? Hahahaha... dear Mr. Roosevelt and his team are at your service.

"Understood, Commander. I'll have someone notify Britain and France. I believe the gentlemen in Congress will be very pleased with my debt collection efforts."

"Well, let's make our own preparations and go to France to get gold at any time... Now let's talk about the situation in Germany... Um... The President of the Weimar Republic, I think it was Hindenburg, right?"

"Yes, Commander..."

When talking about Germany, we have to mention the Weimar Republic, which was a "jack of all trades and master of none".

This was a country meticulously designed by the elites of the old German Empire. From the moment it was created, they left ample loopholes in the system to facilitate the restoration of the Hohenzollern family.

In short, although the country was nominally a democratic electoral state, the Weimar Constitution gave the president super privileges - he could directly appoint the chancellor without consulting the parliamentary election results.

Theoretically, if someone from the Hensholm family (such as William II) returned to Germany, the president could complete the restoration by simply appointing this person as chancellor, then abdicate and let him serve as president of Weimar.

So, who was this president? Paul von Hindenburg.

The supreme commander and de facto ruler of the German army during World War I, the man who coined the famous sayings "Germany was not defeated, but was betrayed by the riots started by the Reds";

From this statement, it can be seen that this guy is a very typical "reactionary and backward element";

In fact, after the defeat in World War I, Germany's national power, especially military power, was still in the hands of the old aristocracy. The entire Wehrmacht almost concentrated all the elites of the old anti-communist forces.

Hindenburg was the representative figure promoted by the capitalists, Junker aristocracy and the Prussian officer class. He was branded with all kinds of buffs such as militarism, feudalism and capitalism.

In order to oppose communism and to ensure that he and the forces behind him could continue to control the country, Hindenburg did everything he could.

Not only did he break political precedent by appointing Brüning, the leader of the minority party, as prime minister, thus making himself a de facto king;

Later, because the corporal who "could at most be a postal minister" was relatively well-behaved and obedient, willing to give up his slogans before taking office, actively oppose communism, and safeguard the interests of traditional German forces, he also appointed him as chancellor.

To be honest, Hindenburg, who was now 85 years old and less than two years away from death, was no longer very smart. It is hard to say to what extent his later decisions were misled and deceived by Mr. Xia.

Neither Tabao nor German Chancellor Papen congratulated me, but Nazi Party leader Hitler did send a congratulatory message, wishing me victory in advance and expressing his hope that Germany and the United States could reach some cooperation in the future..."

"There must be a reason why the mustache guy came to power." "So, should we cooperate with Hitler?"

"Let me think about it..."

Mark had no psychological barriers to cooperating with Hitler, the so-called "devil" who was cursed by later generations.

What a bullshit demon, the real demons are hiding behind, who is Xier? Wen knowledge, just like Germany's defeat in World War II, after Germany's defeat in World War I, the economy was in decline, and American capital took advantage of the situation and bought up a large number of German assets, and at one time controlled more than half of Germany's industry.

As Britain and France were clearly in default of their debts, the United States also launched a German economic recovery plan, providing Germany with a frantic transfusion, which led to a rare period of prosperity in Germany before the Great Depression.

At this time, Hitler launched the "Beer Hall Putsch", but naturally did not receive much support and was directly suppressed.

Then, the Great Depression hit.

The United States was unable to take care of itself and stopped providing financial support to other countries. Six million Germans were unemployed and the economy was in a state of collapse. Hitler's "National Socialist German Workers' Party" suddenly rose to prominence by relying on political maneuvers and inciting populism.

So, how did he make the German economy take off again?

The answer is that it is almost exactly the same path as Germany's rise before the Franco-Prussian War; under the pressure of survival, small countries borrowed money to expand their military and prepare for war, and then used the war reparations from a major war to stimulate the transformation and upgrading of the country, thereby forming an abnormal confidence in the road and becoming more eager for war.

In this process, in addition to boosting the upstream and downstream industrial chains through well-known means such as "large-scale infrastructure construction and comprehensive military reorganization", the most important reason is external transfusion.

Before the Franco-Prussian War, it was British capital that provided the country with a transfusion of capital. Then Germany kicked British capital out, won the war, and received 50 billion francs in compensation from France, embarking on the road to rise.

Before World War II, it was the American capital that provided a transfusion and quickly restored the economy and military armaments. As a result, the Americans suffered from both ends and later directly defeated Germany completely.

No matter which time, without external transfusions, Germany's rise would be basically a dream.

Give a few examples.

Germany lacked technical reserves in rubber, chemicals, etc., so companies like DuPont rushed to catch up;

Germany lacked oil technology, so the Rockefeller family's Standard Oil transferred more than 2000 patents;

Germany wanted to vigorously develop automobiles and highways, and Ford supported it with all his might, and Ford himself was awarded the Iron Cross.

Not to mention the $3200 million in sponsorship provided by American capitalists such as Rockefeller, Ford, and Morgan to Hitler's Nazi Party.

Without the financial support and technology transfer from these American companies, the so-called "economic masters" and "German black technology" mentioned by German fans would probably be nothing more than "sending" and "black".

And now, DuPont has long been privately owned by Springfield, Rockefeller is being beaten madly, Morgan has been completely liquidated, and Ford is trembling beside him...

In other words, Mark (Springfield) has one hand on Germany's blood vessel and is considering whether to strangle it completely.

—It was completely cut off one day, and Germany would have difficulty even launching the initial war, let alone sweeping the world.

However, one problem that comes with completely cutting off the blood supply to Germany is:

The Weimar regime might have collapsed directly, and World War II might not have started in Germany. If World War II had not started in Germany, given France's weakness and Britain's cunning, Europe might not have been destroyed.

Unless Europe is destroyed, the world's largest stronghold of feudalism, conservatism and capitalism will not collapse;

Unless this base camp collapses, the world colonial system will not disintegrate, and many hidden problems and bastards may not be exposed and dealt with;

As for the more distant global red flag...

Well..

After much deliberation, Mark finally made a decision:

"After Springfield, the US government is officially prohibited from providing any more loan support to Germany. However, this does not prohibit the influx of private capital into Germany... the consequences will be at your own risk."

"I'm sorry, Commander. Judging from historical data, while this would satisfy the American people and maintain my image, it wouldn't prevent war."

"This war is unavoidable. It's better to break out sooner rather than later..."

Mark told Chuntian his considerations and said:

"Besides, this time we cleaned up Jewish capital, which caused many Jews to flee. Guess where else they will go, besides Britain and France?"

"Ah... I see, Commander. Do you want them to gather together and then, once the war breaks out, crush them in a second wave? Or find a reason to purge them?"

"Well, first clean up the US internal affairs and strengthen the US military. Only then will it be able to cope with future large-scale wars."

“I see. What about the next country…Italy?”

"There's no need to worry about this. We'll deal with it together with the Vatican when the time comes!"

“Okay, next one…”

The birth of 403 Lighthouse

"...Your Highness, congratulations! You have made incredible and outstanding contributions to our country's diplomatic cause."

Japanese Ambassador to the United States Katsuji Izubuchi bent over and looked respectfully at the back of Fujiwara no Kanezane at the window, as if he was looking at the emperor... no, at Amaterasu.

Although he knew that Fujiwara Kanezane had been to the United States several times and must have connections there, he never expected that these connections would be so strong that the saint would give him such respect!

It is no exaggeration to say that the kiss on the hand at the end of the meeting was equivalent to the diplomatic achievements of the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs towards the United States over the past decade!

This is much more impressive than the Emperor back home who only gives orders but doesn't provide support or help solve problems!

Could it be that the American Saint actually loves our Prince? Haha, if this delusion can come true, then Japan will really take off.

Katsuji Izubuchi is from Osaka. He has always been unhappy with the one in Tokyo, and now he is determined to put all his efforts into supporting their new emperor.

It's time for us Kansai people to suppress your mother's Kanto people! "Haha, if you have time to flatter me, why don't you get back to work."

Fujiwara Kanezane turned around, a faint smile on his face, not a hint of pride:

"I'll emphasize this one last time. You're only allowed to publicize Ms. Field's appreciation of me, my theories themselves, and Manchuria's achievements. You're not allowed to add anything else. If things go wrong, you'll all commit seppuku to apologize!"

"Hey! Your Highness! I will absolutely obey your orders!"

As soon as Ambassador Izubuchi left, Fujiwara Kanezane's calm expression collapsed, and he smacked his lips and said:

"agent."

"Agent?" "Ah... Commander?" "You were distracted?" "... Sorry, please give me your instructions."

Fujiwara Kanezane looked at the agent strangely, but without asking any further questions, he instructed:

"Agent, I plan to leave Alchemist in Los Angeles to help Springfield, but the two sides are too far apart. Please collect materials in the United States recently to see if you can establish signal relay stations in various regions of the United States."

"Oh, by the way, tomorrow you bring my business card and a small gift to President Springfield. Make it a big deal so everyone can see it."

"Yes, I'll do it right away."

After saying that, the agent bowed slightly and turned to leave the room. Hearing the door closing louder than usual and the agent's seemingly resolute back, Mark scratched his face, patted the air beside him, and asked:

"Xiao 9, what do you think of the agent?"

"Hmm..."

UMP9's figure gradually emerged from the air, her pretty face filled with smiles as she pouted and said:

"Commander, you really don't understand?" "Huh?"

"Well, forget it if you don't understand! It's not my place to talk about this kind of thing."

UMP9 smiled and refused to answer, but instead moved closer to Mark's neck and sniffed hard:

"Sniff... sniff... Commander, you smell so strongly of Sister Springfield... Ah my face! I was wrong, sir..."

"Breaking news! Breaking news! The Japanese prince was received by Ms. Field!" "Exclusive insider information! Ms. Field allowed the Japanese envoy to kiss her hand!"

"Shocked! This man from Japan actually did this to our Saint!"

(The tabloid's office was later vandalized from top to bottom by unknown individuals, and the local police were reluctant to investigate.)

As the photos of Haruta meeting with Fujiwara Kanezane and extending his right hand at the door for the other party to bend down and kiss him were circulated, they immediately ignited the entire American public opinion circle, even exceeding the attention paid to the election.

After all, the election results are completely uninteresting. It's nothing more than guessing how much Her Highness will win. How can her personal emotional issues be worth caring about?

Well, actually, most people with a bit of education know that the so-called emotional issues are definitely tabloid nonsense, and are actually a political statement made by Her Majesty the Saint:

I didn't meet anyone else, but I met Fujiwara no Kanezane. Even the cardinal was not qualified to kiss my hand, but he was. Why is that? Think about it yourself.

Then, with the exception of a few people like Roosevelt who "knew the inside story," the American political establishment made a very consistent choice:

Let’s quickly research what this little-known Japanese royal family member did!

What qualities in that person could make Her Highness the Saint value him so highly? It's definitely not Japan's fault, but Her Highness the Saint's actions towards a high-ranking Japanese official could very well change America's attitude towards Japan!

Soon, English versions of the "Three Represents Theory," the "East Asian Co-Prosperity Sphere Theory," and information on Northeast China were thrown out by "enthusiastic individuals"...

While the attention of political entities was drawn to the Far East and related individuals, the United States finally welcomed the final results of the presidential election, which had been delayed due to various unexpected events:

Since Hoover, Thomas, Foster, Roosevelt and others announced their withdrawal from the race for various reasons, the only candidate, Ms. Springfield, won 5000 million popular votes and all 531 electoral votes.

How terrifying is this data?

Put it this way, only Roosevelt in 1936, Nixon in 1972, and Reagan in 1984 can even come close (in terms of electoral votes).

But none of these things happened, so Springfield's performance is almost the best in the history of the US presidential election.

Not only that, she also created many "firsts" and many "bests":

The first female president, the first political novice president, and the first president to gain real power in all aspects of the military, political, and religious systems before taking office;

The president who rose to power the fastest, the president with the most wealth, the president with the greatest military power, the president most popular among the people at the bottom of society, and so on.

By the way, Springfield was not the first president to be elected unanimously or "elected alone," because in addition to Washington's unanimous election, there was no other candidate for James Monroe's re-election in 1820.

The reaction from all walks of life in the United States to this result was relatively "indifferent" - after all, it was expected!

Even the fact that he "got all the electoral votes" wasn't too shocking—there wouldn't be another John Adams who deliberately didn't vote for Monroe in order to "prevent others from sharing the honor of Washington."

After the results were released, everyone had only one thought:

Ms. Field was being hurriedly urged to take the throne... no, to be inaugurated as president. Everyone was watching her presidential inauguration ceremony and inaugural address. Everyone had a premonition that it would be a momentous event that would completely change America.

Finally, in the rainy weather caused by the "Cuban Hurricane", the 1932 US presidential inauguration ceremony finally arrived.

Tens of thousands of people attended the meeting, including Soviet Chairman of the Council of People's Commissars Molotov, People's Commissar of Foreign Affairs Litvinov, Vatican representative Cardinal Basile, British Prime Minister MacDonald, German envoy Röhm, Japanese envoy Fujiwara Kanezane and other envoys from various countries.

In addition, the chaotic French cabinet still failed to reach a conclusion, resulting in only the French ambassador attending the event alone, and for some reason, the United States did not invite any Chinese.

Unlike previous presidential inaugurations, which were filled with celebrities, wealthy individuals, business leaders, and political elites, this Springfield election featured some people who would never have been qualified to be there before:

American veterans;
