1932: Playing with the Japanese Communist Party with a doll

Of course, if it's in mainland Japan, if they want to cause trouble for you, they can just make up an excuse, and they don't even need any reason;

But even Xuanren knew very well that such a thing was impossible in Manchukuo, because as long as one obeyed the law and did not cause trouble, his noble brother seemed too lazy to even catch the Communists.

Nobuhito said no more and decided to find an opportunity to report the situation to Fujiwara no Kanezane when he had time. At the very least, he had to put this religion under surveillance.

Compared to the 27-year-old Nobuhito, Takahito, who was younger and had been pulled to the Northeast by Fujiwara no Kanezane early on to "experience the people's sentiments", did not have so many ideas of belonging to the "ruling class":

"That's great, how can I join... wuwuwuwu..."

Before Chongren could finish his words, his brother covered his mouth with his hand, and the latter laughed awkwardly:

"Well... let's just discuss this between the two of us, okay?" It's not easy for a prince to say something like that. "Please help yourself."

Xuanren pulled Chongren into a corner and whispered, "Are you crazy? Are you really planning to join the religion?"

"What's wrong with that?"

Chongren tilted his head in confusion:

"It's better to join a religion like this than to join those disgusting cults, right?"

"We are Shinto..."

"Shintoism?"

Chongren couldn't help but sneered:

"Brother, are you talking about that Shinto cult that came to Manchuria for three months, committed seven crimes, including forced proselytizing, extorting money from believers, and raping female believers, and was then driven back to Japan? I don't despise them for being shameful, and yet you still want us to believe in them?"

Shintoism officially became the national religion of Japan after the Meiji government launched the "Abolition of Buddhism and Destruction of Buddhism Movement", and was named "State Shintoism".

It is called Shintoism, but in fact it is more like an institution under the Ministry of Internal Affairs. All clergy are employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and belong to the civil service system.

If not for this, it would have been impossible for Fujiwara no Kanezane to replace all the people in Hachiman Shrine with his own people with just a few words after inheriting it.

"Why??"

"Brother, don't you know?"

Chongren explained the files he had seen at the Public Security Bureau, pointing to the old believers who were preaching and the new believers who were earnestly learning:

"Only this kind of sect, this kind of doctrine, and this kind of saintly behavior are liked by the people. If the people like something, is there any other way for us to go except to understand, support, and join it?"

Xuanren, who was always cautious, stared at Chongren blankly, as if he was getting to know his not-so-close younger brother for the first time.

Finally, thinking of his terrible past, feeling the heaviness of the steel ring in his hand and the shock in his heart, he could only sigh:

"Forget it, if you want to do it, I can't control you. But if you want to do something like this, you must report it to your brother Kanezane."

"Well, that's for sure."

Chongren wanted to join the Almighty Gospel Church not because he was attracted by the doctrine or because he was looking for excitement, but because he was influenced by Chen Kui's words.

If you truly care about the people, you won't go astray, right?

Chongren inexplicably felt that although the Almighty Gospel Church was a religion, many of its teachings were similar to those in "On Protracted War" and "Class Analysis" that he had read.

At least, from the current perspective, this religion has truly penetrated into the masses, cared about the masses and done good things for them.

Since Brother Wang says I'm not suited to reading communist books right now, then it's okay for me to join this somewhat strange religion just to "practice."

Even if we take a step back, we cannot leave such a dynamic and faithful religion scattered out there. We must find a way to control it for our brother Kanezane and make it serve his ideals.

However, if the Almighty Gospel Church is like other cults—saying one thing but doing another—then don't blame me, the future Air Force Commander, for killing you!

The brothers Xuanren and Chongren didn't know that their every word and action had been seen by the recorders around them and not far away.

"Records: Two individuals with suspected ulterior motives have been spotted... Number 114514... No dangerous activity has been detected. Alert Level 2. Please report to the 9th Archbishop immediately."

"I recruited both of them. They are indeed different from ordinary people and are suspected to have a certain identity and social status. Please report this to the Saint."

ae,

Soon, the report on the Chongxuan brothers reached G11, who scanned it and sent it to his commander via the cloud map without hesitation:

“416, there’s new news!”

"...Are you the Saint or am I the Saint?"

HK416 sighed, thinking about how much work G11 had already done today using "that thing." Her heart softened as she reviewed the report, narrowed her glasses, and quickly passed it to UMP40, and then to the agent.

"Huh? Why did these two guys go there? Fuck, what Prince of Tennis? Are they 2D fans?"

"Commander, this has deviated from your original plan. How about..."

"No, no, no, no, no need to adjust. It just so happens that our gospel church is short of backbone members. Let them get in touch with it first. If the situation is good, let them do it!"

413 Baka! Who told you to arrest the Communists?

Let’s put aside for now how the two Japanese princes mistakenly joined the cult and how they were fooled by G11’s miracles.

On the other side, Nakanishi Gong, who hurriedly pulled Ozaki Hidemi away, painfully informed him of a piece of news from home:

继1928年“315事件”、1929年"416事件”、1930年“226事件”(奇妙的日期)等事件后，日本共产党又双虽聂被一锅端了。

What was the reason for this time's closure?

The answer is that in June 1931, the Pacific Labor Union Secretariat in Shanghai was seized and destroyed by the British, which directly severed the Japanese Communist Party's ties with the Communist International and led to a sharp drop in aid funds.

In order to ensure the organization's activities, Iizuka Harunobu (a Special High Technology Agency spy), the head of the "Household Fund Bureau" in the Japanese Communist Party, which was responsible for raising funds, led his men to carry out a number of outrageous operations, including but not limited to:

Letting children who have been "indoctrinated" by communism steal money from their homes, rob, steal, extort, use honey traps, organize prostitution... (You can imagine how disgusted the masses will be)

In fact, they were quite successful - the children stole more than 9 yen from home and robbed 3 yen from the bank (unfortunately, they were not as good as the children).

However, such frequent and brazen criminal activities could not be concealed, and soon attracted the full force of the Japanese police, resulting in the arrest of robbers led by Imaizumi Zenichi one after another.

As a result, many of the Japanese Communist Party's strongholds were exposed, resulting in huge losses. In order to resolve the current difficulties and conflicts with the Communist International, the Japanese Communist Party decided to hold a national party congress in Atami.

Then, Matsumura, the head of the JCP Organization and Finance Department, who was in charge of organizing this meeting and was directly under Chairman Kazama Takekichi of the JCP Central Committee, was also a spy from the Special High Technology Department...

The Japanese Communist Party is still unaware of this news. Furthermore, since Ozaki Hidemi and Nakanishi Isao are not strictly speaking members of the Japanese Communist Party (one is more like a member of the Soviet Communist Party, and the other is a member of the Chinese Communist Youth League), they appear relatively calm.

"So, how much is the loss?"

"According to preliminary information, it seems that except for a very few people, all others have been arrested."

"All...all?"

"Yes, all of them. I don't know where the Special High Technology Bureau got the list, but they're arresting people nationwide. The newspapers are reporting that over 1,400 people have been arrested."

"...I remember that before we left, the Japanese Communist Party only had less than 1500 people, right?"

"Yes."

Ozaki Hidemi took a deep breath and said decisively:

"There's a spy inside the organization, and he's a high-ranking spy!"

Otherwise, even if the news was discovered, at most the Central Committee members who were attending the meeting would be arrested. It is absolutely impossible that all party members were arrested, and the rebellion would not be so swift!

Fujiwara Kanezane actually got it right!

At this moment, Ozaki Hidemi was extremely grateful for the risky contact with Fujiwara Kanemitsu in Japan and his own arrest, which made him realize the danger of the entire Japanese Communist Party's organizational activities, and he took dozens of people to Manchukuo.

Otherwise, they might be among those arrested this time! Ozaki Hidemi clenched his fists, feeling extremely heartbroken.

Since its founding in July 1922, this time is the fourth time that the Japanese Communist Party has suffered a devastating blow.

According to Ozaki Hidemi, after the last destruction, the organization itself and its entire mass front had begun to show signs of terminal illness and death, presenting a horrific scene of disintegration.

Just as the organs of a terminally ill patient fail one after another, the various institutions and mass organizations of the Japanese Communist Party are slowly withering away and dying.

After this destruction, can it be rebuilt?

Do not!

Even if it is destroyed a hundred times, the Japanese Communist Party must be rebuilt!

Thinking of this, Ozaki Hidemi made up his mind and said to Nakanishi Gong:

"Go visit President Ma Shiling and ask him to report to His Royal Highness Prince Kanezane. Request that His Royal Highness find a way to save the Japanese Communist Party!"

Although Fujiwara no Kanezane refused to join the Japanese Communist Party and refused to associate with it, his attitude towards the Communist Party was not as bad as that in Japan, and the overall atmosphere in Manchukuo was still very relaxed and tolerant;

Although it is embarrassing that the Japanese Communist Party's life is in the hands of a so-called "chief war criminal" in "Class Analysis", he is the only one in Japan who has the ability and courage to save the Japanese Communist Party!

"Okay! What about you?"

"I'm going to visit someone else."

Since he was on the "list", Zhong Xigong easily met Ma Shiling in the deep palace, reported the matter to her, and pleaded:

"...Please, Your Highness, Prince Kanezane, for the sake of being Japanese, save the Japanese Communist Party—save!"

"You guys..."

UMP40 was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

In fact, the commander had long known about this major event in the history of the Japanese Communist Party, but had no intention of reminding the Japanese Communist Party.

Remind you what?

There is no use in reminding me!

Regardless of whether the Japanese Communist Party believed his warning or not, during this period, almost all aspects of the Japanese Communist Party's power were completely controlled by the spies of the Special High Technology Bureau:

The then Chief of the Special High Section, Moriki (also known as "Kogoro" (dog head) because he was the fifth child in the family) even proudly declared publicly:

"Japan's communist movement is right in the palm of our (Japanese police's) hands!"

The aforementioned Special High Technology spy Matsumura not only handed over batches of the Japanese Communist Party's confidential documents to the head of the Special High Technology Section, but also manipulated the Japanese Communist Party's organs to act blindly and squander the party's hard-earned funds.

This money was obtained by the suicide squads under the orders of Special High Technology Corps spy Iizuka Yingyan, who robbed banks, robbed passersby, and had children steal money from their homes, severely damaging the reputation of the Japanese Communist Party.

After making enough money, ruining their reputation, and completing their mission, the two men revealed the locations of the core leaders of the Japanese Communist Party to the Special High Technology Bureau, destroying the entire Japanese Communist Party organization in one fell swoop.

After this major explosion, the remaining members of the Japanese Communist Party who were responsible for rebuilding the party were divided into three groups:

Oizumi Kenzo, a Central Committee member of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, was a Special High Technology Department spy (a former member of the Japanese Communist Party who later defected);

Secret Central Committee member Noro Eitaro—a pure theorist, completely ignorant of the JCP's organizational operations and practices, and in poor health. His subordinates included the Special High Technology University spies Mifune Ryochi and Imai Toichiro;

Yamashita Heiji, alternate member of the Central Committee of the Propaganda and Agitation Department—a member of the Workers' and Peasants' Faction, the only "big shot" who correctly recognized that the failure of the Japanese Communist Party was due to its lack of close ties with the masses;

In the end, this only correct wave was despised by Yamamoto Masayoshi, the representative of the overseas study group sent by the Soviet Union in 1933, and was suppressed and betrayed.

Finally, the Soviet student, the chief theorist of the lecture faction, and the high-level secret agents joined hands to overthrow the workers and peasants faction and establish a new party core. Among the five central committee members, at least two were high-level secret agents.

Afterwards, Oizumi betrayed Yamamoto Masami and Taniguchi Naohei. Now two-thirds of the highest authority of the Japanese Communist Party Central Committee were Special High Technology Bureau spies.

Did the top brass of the Japanese Communist Party have any doubts?

Of course there are.

They asked Oizumi to interrogate Mifune.

Well, yes, the Japanese Communist Party let a Special High Technology Agent interrogate another Special High Technology Agent to confirm whether the other Special High Technology Agent was actually a Special High Technology Agent.

Later, the Japanese Communist Party established a new Secretariat, consisting of Noro, Oizumi, and Obata, and the Organization Bureau was composed of Oizumi and Obata. Well, this "Obata" was called "Obata Tatsuo", who was also a Special High Technology Agency spy;

Before it was finally completely wiped out, the top leaders of the three major organizations that directly controlled the activities of the Japanese Communist Party - the Communist Youth League, the All-China Federation of Trade Unions, and the All-China Federation of Peasants - were all spies of the Special High Technology Bureau.

We found a small number of Japanese Communist Party members among the spies.jpg

Do you think it's because the Special High Technology Bureau's methods are too powerful? Too good at disguise? Or because its members are all firmly committed to destroying communism?

No, no, no, on the contrary, the traitors and spies from an organization like the Special High Technology Bureau may be able to disguise themselves, but how could they have a firm belief like that of communism?

Whether it was Mifune, Oizumi, or Imai, they were all the kind of people who indulged in drinking, whoring, gambling, and eating, and had no interest in Party work (nonsense). They couldn't even articulate the concept of communism (especially Oizumi).

Japanese Communist Party members had discovered their problems long ago, but until the betrayed Yamamoto Masami delivered a message, the Japanese Communist Party Central Committee (especially Noro Eitaro) still firmly believed that they were just "soldiers who made some minor mistakes";

Even worse, not long after, with the prison rebellion of JCP leaders like Sano Manabu and Nabeyama Sadachika, the vast majority of JCP members declared their departure from the party and pledged allegiance to the emperor...

In this situation, how the hell can you tell me how to save her?

The Japanese Communist Party has long been ignored by the Japanese top brass, who have simply handed the matter over to the small Japanese police Special High-Tech Unit to handle. This is evident from the fact that the last Imperial Conference did not even include any topics related to the Communist Party.

Being able to "persuade" Ozaki Hidemi to bring some Japanese Communist Party members to Northeast China for development and provide them with certain protection was Fujiwara Kanezane's last act of kindness;

Otherwise, if he hangs out with these guys, he will be in trouble in two days.

This is also the reason why Fujiwara no Kanezane planned to abandon the original Japanese Communist Party and rebuild the "New Japanese Communist Party" from the beginning:

Why must the Japanese Communist Party be the Japanese Communist Party? Why must the Japanese Communist Party be in Japan? Why must the Japanese Communist Party be Japanese?

Therefore, UMP40 rejected Zhong Xigong's request without hesitation:
