1932: Playing with the Japanese Communist Party with a doll

It could only be that bastard Syngman Rhee got hold of it from Shanghai, Nanjing, or somewhere else!

"Mr. Bai Fan!"

Lee Seung-man did not think there was anything wrong with taking other people's families as hostages, and continued to shout:

"Even if you don't consider yourself, please consider your men and your family! His Majesty Kanin-no-miya has promised that as long as you lay down your weapons, he will keep all of you innocent!"

,

To be honest, Jin Jiu hesitated for a moment.

As a former "yangban" who grew up with Confucian education, the idea that "there are three unfilial acts, and the worst is to have no descendants" is deeply rooted in his bones.

What's more, the person before him was his mother and his only blood relative! Was he really going to watch them die?

"Brother! Let's give it a try!"

An Gonggen (An Junggen's second brother) beside Jin Gu roared with red eyes: "Even if we all die here, we must rescue my brother's family!" "Yes! Commander! Let's charge!"

"Charge! We will never surrender!" "We would rather die here!"

""

Although the plan failed and he was surrounded by the Japanese army and fell into a desperate situation, no one blamed Kim Gu.

We have already earned enough, so let’s just die!

The shouting of his men woke Jin Jiu up, reminding him of HK416's words: "Don't worry, the commander thinks you are still useful and will not let you die easily..."

In this situation, how can I escape without exposing Fujiwara no Kanezane's plan?

Even though I don't understand, I can't just give up!

Hachimangu Shrine must have a backup plan!

Just as Jin Jiu's subordinates had absolute confidence in Jin Jiu, Jin Jiu had unknowingly developed a certain sense of absolute trust in Fujiwara Kanezane.

At this time, Syngman Rhee's voice sounded again:

"Mr. Bai Fan! I have decided to allow the Republic of Korea to join His Majesty Hachiman Palace's Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere! The peninsula will soon find happiness! Lay down your weapons! Together, we will build a new nation under His Majesty's guidance!"

Now, the action team, which had been "indifferent" to Prince Kan'in Yasuhito's promise, suddenly became agitated, and hesitation appeared on the faces of many team members.

Putting aside other things, many of them have families working under the command of that Hachiman Palace in Northeast China, living an unprecedentedly good life!

Just as Jin Jiu was thinking about how to continue dealing with Lee Seung-man and appease his subordinates, a faint male voice sounded in his ears:

"Alas, this Li guy is such a scumbag. Fortunately, there are so many of us here this time..."

Jin Jiu and his men were startled to find that a masked man in black had appeared beside them. Without even glancing at the guns around him, he ordered:

"Mr. Jin, get ready. Once the explosion sounds, immediately bring your men and follow me out!"

“…Huh?”

Although he had never seen this "man" with a faint fragrance, Jin Jiu reacted quickly and accepted the order without hesitation:

"Yes!"

"Ah."

UMP4O, who had deliberately switched to a male voice, ordered Jin Gu and the others to take up their assault positions while issuing various commands through the cloud map:

"G11, wake up! Get ready to take down the officer! Otherwise, the game the commander promised you will be gone!"

"416, the safety of Jin Gu and his family depends on you. It doesn't matter whether Syngman Rhee lives or dies..."

"dew.."

"I know, I know, explosions are art!"

A frivolous female voice responded from the cloud map, then appeared before the stunned faces of Prince Kan'in Yasuhito and other high-ranking Japanese generals, smiling and waving in greeting:

"Seporui! Mommy Zefaq! Sackmedik...ah, I don't have this thing, so I'll just use Sackmedai...never mind, anyway, Sackyo la la!"

“BOOM!!!!”

600 The Founding of the Party

September 20, 1933. Japan, Tokyo, Imperial Palace.

The air pressure here is terribly low. Everyone speaks and acts very carefully, for fear of offending a scary person who might beat them to death.

"...Therefore, Prince Kan'in and Prince Higashikuni decided to use themselves as bait to lure Jin Gu into their trap, and successfully surrounded him at the headquarters... Unexpectedly, Jin Gu had an ambush and sent assassins to attack with suicide bombings..."

The preliminary investigation report hastily written by the survivors of the "North Korean Command Bombing Attack" has come out. The speed of the report is so fast that it seems like "I'm reporting it quickly so that you can have the headache first and avoid taking your anger out on me."

In short, after the two royal family members learned from various sources that the leader of the Korean resistance army was Kim Gu and that he was about to launch another attack on the North Korean headquarters and other important targets, they decided to ambush the enemy and sent Syngman Rhee with Kim Gu's family to persuade them to surrender;

As a result, Jin Gu's tactics were even more powerful. He used himself as bait. While personally leading his troops to attack the headquarters and being defended, he also deployed assassins on the periphery and successfully found the Japanese commander to launch a counterattack, causing the Japanese plan to fail completely.

The explosion killed Prince Kan'in Yasuhito, Prince Higashikuni Norihiko, Commander-in-Chief of the Korean Front Army Yoshiyuki Kawashima, Chief of Staff Tomoo Kodama, and dozens of other generals and officers, as well as their personal guards. More than 1000 ordinary officers and soldiers were killed or injured.

The most shameful thing was that Jin Jiu actually took advantage of the chaos caused by the killing of the above generals and successfully rescued his family and escaped with his men. Judging from the fact that no bodies of the attackers were found at the scene, the casualties on Jin Jiu's side were extremely small or there may have been no casualties.

In other words, this group of Korean resistance fighters who had caused chaos on the Korean Peninsula for more than a year once again successfully killed the commander-in-chief and chief of staff of the Japanese Army in Korea along with a group of senior officials at an outrageously low price, once again dealing a heavy blow to Japan.

It is no exaggeration to say that this incident not only slapped the Japanese in the face, but also almost cut off the last possibility of the Japanese army "suppressing Korea by force."

Continue to suppress with force?

Continue the fight to the death? Continue to massacre cities and villages? Of course.

However, unless Japan has the strength and military power of the United States, continuing to do so will only be like cleaning up a diarrheal mess, which is not only useless but also easy to mess up.

Most importantly, if a strong military crackdown leads to more suicide bombings, will you protect me?

The vast majority of Japanese high-ranking officials who received the news had the same idea in mind, and some even resorted to using other people's cases to comfort themselves:

Think about His Majesty Hachiman-no-Miya. Wasn't it only after the "Manchukuo founding ceremony bombing incident" that he changed from a young and naive "radical" to a "modest"?

So, I am not a coward, I am "knowing the current situation", I am "for future growth", I am "learning the excellent qualities of His Majesty Hachiman Palace"!

In short, in the eyes of the Japanese high-ranking officials, although it did not matter how many soldiers or low-ranking officers died, they, the nobles, could not always hide in a safe place and command remotely;

Two well-protected members of the royal family died in the desperate attacks of the North Koreans. Who can guarantee that they will not be the next?

Who can guarantee that there won't be a bomb buried under their feet when they go to inspect work somewhere one day?

Who can guarantee that there aren't some brain-dead traitors lurking around him?

Because of events in Shanghai, Shenyang, and the Korean Peninsula, the practice of "suicide bombings" has long been popular throughout Asia, and has even been reported in European and American newspapers.

This type of attack is much more brutal than assassinations with guns and cold weapons, and has a stronger deterrent effect. Before the threat of nuclear bombs emerges, it is very effective in making the "nobles" calmer.

When similar tragedies happen to the enemy, they will laugh and call on the warriors to keep fighting.

When similar tragedies happen to the lower classes, they will hypocritically comfort them, emphasizing that "knowing shame leads to courage";

Only when tragedy happens or threatens to happen to them will they jump out to call for peace;

Obviously, the effect of the tragic attack on the North Korean headquarters is the third kind. The lives of ordinary people may not be lives, but the lives of noble people are truly lives.

Yukichi Kido was guarding outside the room, listening to the roars and slaps from inside. He stopped a eunuch who came in hurriedly to report, snatched the new information from his hand, glanced at it, and sighed silently.

New trouble has arrived.

Kim Gu actually sent someone to Shanghai to issue an "attack statement", announcing that he was responsible for the attack and even revealed the attack plan and bomb formula, which was obviously a provocation.

Now, the news can no longer be concealed.

Originally, the Japanese side was thinking of doing a "routine operation" - pretending that there was no ambush or counter-ambush, and that there was no "royal family member visiting Korea" at all. After a few months, they would announce that those generals had "died of illness."

Now, with Kim Gu's public call, Japan has been completely put on the defensive and must respond positively, otherwise it will easily be seen as guilty.

However, in response, it would be impossible to conceal the deaths of so many high-ranking generals, especially Prince Kan'in Yasuhito, the Chief of the Japanese Army General Staff;

In other words, Japan would be humiliated internationally this time, and Emperor Hirohito, whose authority was growing stronger, would never tolerate such a situation.

so...

"...Kido! Kido! Come in!"

coming.

Yukichi Kido sighed, straightened his appearance, and walked in carefully. He forced himself not to look at the Army Minister Sadao Araki, whose cheeks were swollen, and handed the new information to His Majesty the Emperor.

Sure enough, the other party was furious after reading it:

"Useless! All of them are useless! Give orders to Shanghai to shut down any newspaper that dares to report this!"

Your Majesty, do you still think Shanghai is the Shanghai of a year or two ago? Do you still think that the ruler of Shanghai is that soft-spoken Chiang Kai-shek? Do you still think that Shanghai Mayor Wu Tiecheng still has any say? Ban the newspaper?

Do you think international public opinion will explode?

Do you think the Americans, Soong Ching Ling, or the gradually emerging Chinese Communist Party will intervene?

Can you guess what will become of the image of Japan that was finally rebuilt by His Majesty Prince Kanezane?

Even though he was Hirohito's loyal lackey, Kido Yukichi felt speechless at this moment.

There is no harm without comparison...

As for who we are comparing with, we don’t know and we dare not say.

Seeing Kido lowering his head and refusing to answer, Hirohito became even angrier, and his tone and manner of speaking changed:

"What? You dare to disobey my order?!"

""

Kido Koichi sighed deeply inwardly again. Just as he was about to carefully choose his words to remind the furious Emperor, Araki Sadao, who had been whipped like a top, spoke vaguely:

"Your Majesty, should we...or should we first ask His Majesty Hachiman-no-Miya's opinion?"

Hirohito was taken aback and quickly scolded:

"Then hurry up! Call back little... Hachimangu!"

"Your Majesty, if I remember correctly, His Majesty Hachiman-no-Miya seems to have recently organized a closed meeting in Shenyang. Perhaps..."

"???"

Fujiwara no Kanezane was indeed in a meeting, and it was indeed a highly confidential "closed meeting". No one could come out for a while.

After the "Greater East Asia Conference" and the "Princess Selection Ceremony" had basically come to an end, it was time for another major conference within Northeast China to be held:

Party Founding and Reform Conference.

As mentioned earlier, up to now, there has been no open political party within the entire "Five-Star Eastern Republic" - whether it is a Japanese party or a Chinese party.

On the one hand, this is because there was no such tradition during the reign of the Zhang family of the Qing Dynasty and the Beiyang family. On the other hand, the original Kuomintang and other forces were expelled, resulting in a "window period";

On the other hand, most forces or individuals from mainland Japan have become extremely disgusted or disappointed with Japan's party politics and do not want to play the party game after arriving here.

In addition, Fujiwara no Kanezane himself was a man who only wanted to stir up trouble and watch the show, the Ministry of Internal Affairs was barely able to lead and coordinate all departments at the overall level, and the underground party organization and members of the Communist Party of China quietly played the leadership role of the party. Therefore, it was better not to establish this political party.

Of course, in the eyes of a very small number of "insiders" such as Chen Kang, the basic operation and stability of the country were guaranteed because the World Revolutionary Party intervened in invisible corners.

However, as mentioned earlier, an excellent political party plays a huge role in the operation of the country and cannot be completely absent. If we want to truly and fully tap the potential of the entire Northeast, we must have an open and unified organization.

So, party, get started!

"Long time no see, comrade!" "Long time no see, long time no see..."

"Ah! Comrade Zhang Guanyi! You're here too!" "It's me, it's me, hahahahaha..." "How have you been lately?"

"I gained several pounds..."

Before the "Korean Incident" occurred, it was still that stadium where representatives from the political and military circles of the entire Five-Star Eastern Republic gathered, smiling and greeting each other openly and covertly.

Of course, these people cannot all be members of the Communist Party, but they have all been directly or indirectly influenced by communist ideas to some extent. The fact that they were invited to attend the meeting itself shows their abilities and positions, and also means that they may be the first members of the new party.

For "latent" CCP members, joining a new party or something like that, as long as the Party Central Committee agrees, there is no psychological barrier at all. Just think of it as a way to better conceal yourself!

Therefore, the issues they discussed were merely practical questions such as "what is the name of the new party", "what is its constitution", "what is its organizational structure", "how can they gain status and exert influence in this new party", etc.

For officers who originally transferred from the Japanese Army/Northeastern Army/local army system, their thinking was even simpler - whatever His Majesty Hachiman-no-Miya said was the truth, loyalty! Honesty! That's all.

But for those who are more averse to party politics, technocrats or traditional conservatives, the establishment of a party can easily cause anxiety.

Some people feel that the Kuomintang and other large and small parties in Japan have already tainted the word "party," turning it into a tool for certain individuals to achieve dictatorial rule, political infighting, or collusion, and so they worry that the New Party will become similarly corrupt.

Pure technocrats were generally hesitant to join the party, as it would divert their energy, while not joining the party might cause Fujiwara no Kanezane to dislike them and thus lose further support.

Some people with more traditional and conservative ideas believe that "gentlemen gather together but do not form factions" is an ancient saying. After all, isn't the country good enough the way it is now? Why do we have to establish a party?

Since the program can run, don't change the code easily.
