Yes, Prime Minister of Japan

"I urge the police to love their country! Don't become the lackeys of traitors!"

Gangsters shouted patriotism at the police, a surreal scene that also occurred downstairs from the Metropolitan Police Department.

It's obviously not enough for just two groups of highly motivated fighters to rush in.

The scattered Self-Defense Force officers and their families, as well as various social groups, flocked to Nagata Town as if they had found their own Onepeace.

"This is the three-stage attack on Nagata-cho!"

This case of treason involves a vast number of employees from various companies. Nissan alone employs 6 people in Japan, most of whom are full-time employees of a large corporation, receiving social security and high salaries. The other companies listed for sale or investment are in similar situations. Whether it's Subaru, which is also heavily indebted, or cosmetics giants like Shiseido and Unicharm, their full-time employees are determined to protect their financial situation.

These hundreds of thousands of full-time employees are not only the backbone of society, but also one of the foundations upon which Japan's Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare operates its statistical magic. If this entire sector collapses, it means that the lives of millions will be severely impacted.

So when the stormtroopers, under the command of various radical groups, broke through the Tiger Gate and the Kasumigaseki Gate, peaceful protesters who had begun to hold demonstrations in other parts of the city swarmed in like a nuclear fusion, instantly turning into violent participants under incitement.

In normal times, workers and white-collar workers would definitely not be swayed by the National Volunteer Corps or the Red Halberd Society. But now, with the crisis of layoffs looming, everyone is disregarding everything else, grabbing the red flag and charging forward with them.

History has repeatedly shown that peaceful protests are ineffective.

Only real force can make the officials of Nagata-cho realize their mistakes.

Nagata-cho was attacked by various local militias and heroes.

Despite the onslaught, the police were forced to retreat in succession, losing Toranomon and Kasumigaseki in quick succession. Just days before, tanks and armored vehicles had been exchanging fire, and the Self-Defense Forces and the Coastal Combat Brigade had been engaged in a hail of bullets on the battlefield. Yet, the civic groups of Tokyo were more resilient and disciplined than the police.

"Set up tents and barricades, our goal is to hold Nagata-cho until the Diet and the government withdraw the traitorous officials!" Takajo Satsuki, who was in charge of manipulating public opinion, repeatedly posted similar statements behind the scenes, directing the occupation forces to advance.

Tents were set up in Nagata-cho. In the past, setting up tents outside would result in police raids, but this time the police were blocked inside the office building first.

The officials were at their wits' end.

At this moment, on the luxury cruise ship, when public resentment boiled over and roared, and when the Metropolitan Police Department was unable to defeat the militia even without firing a shot, the officials on the Swan Princess panicked.

They hurriedly disembarked, fearing arrest for treason.

Meanwhile, Li Xinghe directed the special police outside to prepare, not to arrest people on the ship, but to have them make arrests intensively on the main traffic routes after disembarking:

"Friends, move out and temporarily detain all the officials who disembarked. Don't take them to the Metropolitan Police Department or Public Security Section 9. Send them directly to the Qingshan Command Headquarters. There, a German woman named Chris Elizabeth will assist you in sending them to a dungeon from which they cannot escape. Don't leave any written records. No one will know that you arrested those officials."

"Don't arrest people by the boat, conduct traffic checks at the intersection. Don't let a single one escape, GoGoGo!"

Musashi Hachimono originally wanted to rush out and grab the person, but when she looked back and saw that Li Xinghe had no guards around him, she put on a bulletproof vest and stood in front of him.

When the commotion started inside the ship, Major General Moiz was furious and kicked Li Xinghe's door hard.

"You brat! What have you done..."

Li Xinghe opened the door, and a group of policewomen pointed their guns at Moiz:

"Oh, don't get so excited. The person in front of you isn't the famous Bigg, but the head of Section 9 of the Japanese Public Security Bureau, who is in charge of monitoring the conversation records of officials from the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry. Don't worry, we haven't received an arrest warrant. It's just that it's getting noisy outside, and they're trying to escape."

Li Xinghe told only half the truth.

He did not receive an arrest warrant, yet he had already begun to carry out the arrest ahead of schedule.

Major General Moiz was so angry he almost died and ran away.

The entire town of Nagata is now blocked by a tent camp of tens of thousands of radical citizens. Officials are prohibited from leaving and are even beaten, kidnapped, and paraded through the streets when they try to leave. Diet members are fleeing the scene in a panic.

While Li Xinghe ordered the special police to arrest people, he took Chiyo Hinahime on a helicopter to observe the battle from the sky.

Tents dotted the ground, while fists and kicks clashed in front of the building.

Li Xinghe laughed:

"Isn't it very much like the style of the Jin Dynasty? When Luoyang fell, the palace was filled with corpses, thieves roamed freely, and government offices dug trenches to defend themselves."

This might be a bit of an exaggeration, but the bureaucratic government of Nagata-cho was indeed completely blocked inside the building by the people with tents and roadblocks. In order to avoid being dragged out of the streets by the mob and paraded in public, each building had to knock down filing cabinets and sofas to block all the doors, which is exactly the famous scene of various departments digging trenches to protect themselves in Luoyang.

Chiyo Hinaki was even more worried:

"Then how do we solve this?"

"It's bound to be reduced sooner or later. Not only will wages be reduced, but benefits will also be reduced."

Li Xinghe said.

This is the scene that many people had already predicted.

Japan's decline, while still one of the few countries in the world with relatively good public safety and economic stability, seems unstoppable compared to its neighbor China.

The first to collapse were various home appliance companies, followed by semiconductor and automotive companies, and then the collapse spread to various poorly managed sectors, such as cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and retail. These large companies could initially survive by falsifying data and borrowing money, but in the long tug-of-war, they were eventually forced to make choices.

The choice is either to cut employee salaries and downsize the company, or to go bankrupt and die.

Ultimately, the living standards of the Japanese will continue to decline, and keep declining, from wages to quality of life, regressing back to where they should be.

This is also one aspect of the Dharma-ending Age.

But will protests prevent pay cuts, layoffs, and company sales?

No, not at all.

The only difference is who will handle the downsizing or bankruptcy liquidation of these large companies.

Is it American capital?

Or is it a Chinese company?

Li Xinghe believes that only he himself can carry out a complete bankruptcy liquidation of Japan.

Otherwise, wouldn't this trip have been a waste?

At that moment, the helicopter flew over the bustling Nagata-cho.

The public toilets along the roadside had already been occupied by the public, and using various small water pipes, the public's tent city was quickly set up.

Beneath a bright red flag are people who are furious at the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry for the past thirty years for its inhumane practices and its dedication to ripping people off.

"Arrest the traitors and occupy Nagata-cho!"

Chapter 599: Little May, the Invincible Internet Provider, Governs the Nation with a Super Galaxy (4100 words)

9 month 20 day.

After last year's May 525th struggle was frightened by the news of the US military's deployment and sent people home, this year's communist struggle, although very abstract and merged with the far right and even the abstract faction, has a more efficient and stable response strategy.

First, they used a tent city to block all the roads in Nagata-cho, trapping the officials in their offices, preventing them from leaving, refusing them food, and even cutting off their water, electricity, and sewage. This was a replica of Li Xinghe's tactic in the Osaka Hall siege, where he cut off Baba Nobuyuki's sewers, causing them to defecate everywhere.

That wasn't enough. In terms of external defense, the fighters used old cars, various filing cabinets, and trash cans to build multiple barricades, completely blocking several intersections and subway stations.

Hiroshi Yajima personally directed operations on-site:

"Comrades, do not be afraid of struggle! The US military bases are full of useless civilian officials, they are all office idiots. Our only adversary, the Coastal Combat Brigade, has just lost its operational capability due to suppressing the Self-Defense Forces' mutiny. Therefore, our struggle is timely, communists should not be afraid to die!"

That being said, she was actually wearing a bulletproof vest given to her by Li Xinghe, as well as a self-defense pistol, under her work clothes. Many core members brought live ammunition, ready to escalate the conflict at any time.

The vigorous movement to occupy Nagata-cho thus began.

Tens of thousands of radical protesters sat down in Nagata-cho, pooling their money online and receiving donations from Li Xinghe, and cooked meals on-site to stay and support the cause.

The public's demands gradually escalated, from "arresting traitors" to "arresting traitors, punishing corrupt officials, achieving peace, and stabilizing prices."

While Yajima Hiroshi was directing the battle on the front lines, in the Aoyama-so villa at the rear, little Takajo Satsuki confidently turned on her computer.

The great May Takajo is invincible on the internet!

She left a paid comment in Maria Miyake's live stream with 5 viewers:

"Won't they raise taxes again?"

Maria immediately understood and began to steer the conversation, stating in the live stream: "The Idol Party has always stood with everyone. Please believe me, I'm already preparing to submit a statement to the government, demanding an explanation!"

Soon, Maria received even more money from her die-hard fans.

Although the money is mainly for idol fans, the core purpose is to help Li Xinghe. So in a sense, Maria is indeed using fans' money to support a man.

Then, Gao Tiao May moved to another of her large live streaming rooms with 3 followers and started posting paid comments to spread rumors: "It is said that they want to use the excuse that 'people should earn their own living' to deduct from everyone's National Welfare Insurance and Retirement Insurance, and also increase taxes!"

Then she directed the female anchor to deliver a prepared speech, inciting public hatred of the Japanese government, which drew attention from the live broadcast audience.

Crazy resonance.

"Next, they'll probably start criticizing the poor for only wasting money and not knowing how to earn a living, right?"

"They'll probably say the government is inefficient and incompetent, so they're selling off government assets to big capitalists, right?"

In May, Gao Tiao roamed various live streaming platforms, attracting attention by engaging in political commentary everywhere.

"These are all things Musk has already done. On the one hand, he announces outrageous cases in the government to attract everyone's attention, while on the other hand, he secretly cuts welfare for ordinary people and throws the poor into the trash can and ignores them."

"That's what was done during the Reagan era. They kept saying people should be self-reliant, but they squeezed money from single-parent families, poor widows, and child laborers to support big capital."

While it may be called a rumor, it largely follows the policies of reducing welfare and increasing taxes implemented by the Japanese government after decades of liberalization reforms.

In a sense, this is more of a priori prophecy.

After all, Reagan did it, and so did Trump and Musk. Musk's Department of Government Efficiency followed Reagan's example by cutting welfare, relentlessly drastically reducing the basic welfare benefits for the poor, but daring not to touch the pie of various complexes and large corporations. If Musk is ahead of Reagan in any way, it's that he knows how to use social media to manipulate public opinion, making everyone only see the outrageous government spending projects and forget what he actually cut.

"What are you doing?"

Kuroko Suzuka skipped and hopped up behind Takajo Satsuki, looking at her with a puzzled expression.

While posting, Gao Tiao Wuyue said:

"They're stirring up trouble, getting pro-American and anti-American factions to start arguing."

What she posted next was purely the conspiracy theory part:

"Musk is a Chinese spy! His mother has even settled in China."

"Musk has Chinese ancestry. He was sent by China to the United States to cause trouble, and he has succeeded. Thanks to him, the US military has not even launched the Constellation frigate yet, and the next generation of DdgX is still a pipe dream."

Viewers quickly started cursing in the live stream, and paid comments kept popping up, making the streamer, viewers, and Gao Tiao Wuyue all very wealthy.

On the other hand, Musk has done good for China.

Because of his Department of Government Efficiency, he indirectly forced the Pentagon, the Treasury Department, the Department of Health and Human Services, and other departments to cut a large number of research projects, such as a bunch of advanced military research projects like the Sentinel missile, as well as cutting-edge medical projects like disease research.

This move, comparable to the Rumsfeld military reforms, is another backstab to the US in technological fields where it is leading or needs to catch up.

It's hard to imagine how bad the US military will be in 2028, given how bad it is now and the various advanced military projects have been cut. The Constellation-class destroyers haven't been launched in 11 years, the USS Kennedy was launched but then returned to the shipyard for repairs, there are no missiles, and even the vertical launch system's production capacity isn't enough to equip the Japanese allied forces, resulting in the Mogami-class destroyers still only having one gun.

The only weapon the U.S. military could equip itself with was the incredibly expensive XM8 rifle.

But what use is this rifle in a confrontation between China and the United States?

Are we expecting American soldiers to fight back against China's missiles and drones with marijuana and rifles, and with their iron will?

As Takajo Mayuki continued to stir up trouble online, directing online trolls, bribing commentators, and even sending threatening letters to reporters from various newspapers, using both soft and hard tactics to force them to publish messages criticizing the Japanese government, night had unknowingly fallen.

In July and September, Suzuka Kuroko lay on the bed, cuddling and fast asleep. In May, she turned off the computer and went to bed.

Then the phone suddenly lit up.

Wu Keke, a giant standing at 1.98 meters tall: "Oh no, I compared it to myself, it's really big, it might poke my stomach!"

Gao Tiao Wuyue hurriedly pressed for an answer:

"Where did you compete?" — Super Invincible Little May.

Yamato Kana remained silent.

Urged on by May, Yamato Keir cautiously posted two images that would disappear after being viewed.

The first photo shows Kasukabe Tamako with her legs spread in an M-shape, with white fluid flowing between them, in a suggestive post-coital scene. Li Xinghe is shown displaying a spirited and energetic image. The second photo shows Yamato Keir using her hand to measure the length, which is longer than her entire arm.

Takajo Satsuki felt a ache in her legs. She quietly gestured with her hand to show the difference and quickly asked Yamato Kana:

"Oh no, is it going to poke my stomach?"

"What should we do? Can we just take half?"

The 1.4-meter-tall team is caught in a happy dilemma.

……

Nagata-cho was occupied, and the usually imposing Metropolitan Police Department fell silent this time.

Firstly, their own headquarters were surrounded, so the police couldn't easily fire on civilians. Secondly, the news was too shocking; the fact that an official from the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry was selling out the country on a luxury cruise ship was really hard for everyone to bear.

At such a critical moment, the Japanese people, as well as the alliance between the Liberal Democratic Party and the opposition parties, could no longer tolerate it.
