Yes, Prime Minister of Japan

Boom!

The bombs rained down from the sky, falling straight into residential areas and exploding, shocking the hearts of the Japanese people.

With the Black Hawk Down and fighter jets bombing, the Self-Defense Force soldiers of the 12th Brigade were stunned. This was not what they had imagined they were supposed to be doing.

They screamed, wailed, and ran around; their morale was clearly collapsing.

Although the Japanese protested Emperor Showa's awarding of the Grand Cordon of the Order of the Rising Sun, First Class, to LeMay, the real reason for awarding that medal—which LeMay didn't care about at all—was that LeMay had single-handedly cultivated and established the Japan Air Self-Defense Force system. It was also LeMay's "Tokyo BBQ" that led to the widespread bombing and destruction of the air base of the old Japanese Army and Navy.

But Li Xinghe, who was determined to seize power, was truly willing to transform into Li Mei and launch a large-scale bombing raid on Tokyo to eliminate the Japanese Self-Defense Forces that wanted to compete with him for the position.

On his phone, Masaki Maejima was seething with rage:

"You! Do you want to be a devil?"

Li Xinghe received the soldier's hand gesture and offered his final blessing:

"No, I just want to be the emperor. And you're going to hell."

Before the words were even finished, the scouts who had been searching for the enemy's cell phone signal had already indicated the location of the enemy command post. In an instant, satellite guidance markers were displayed, and the drone pilot launched his suicide shuttle drone, which had already drawn a graceful arc and landed in Masaki Maejima's command post.

The intense bombing, accompanied by the collapse of buildings and billowing smoke, assaulted the minds of the nearby Self-Defense Force members. The 12th Brigade had completely lost command.

Li Xinghe turned off his phone and asked the person next to him, with great incomprehension:

"This idiot, she dares to keep her cell phone on during a war?"

Unfortunately, the Japanese Self-Defense Forces' operational methods are still stuck in a primitive state.

After the violent explosion, the 12th Brigade was completely leaderless. The entire brigade headquarters, including deputy commanders such as the chief of staff of the artillery, was killed in the explosion of a suicide drone, all because of Masaki Maejima's foolish phone call.

Amid the smoke and dust of the explosion, objects from the same building were propelled into the air by the force of the gunpowder, then scattered and landed in front of everyone.

Li Xinghe picked up a roll of toilet paper that the Self-Defense Forces had looted and handed it to the general next to him: "Look, they even got some loot."

The author says:

Author's Note: Thank you for your support. 4900 words. The riots have begun.

Chapter 655: A Bowl of Rice Wipes Out the Enemy, TV Station Distorts the Truth (4700 words)

The deafening explosion was so clear in the night.

The 12th Brigade rushed south day and night, but the soldiers only ate two small hamburgers a day. Their command post was also destroyed by a suicide drone. They were like headless flies, starving and exhausted. Now, even toilet paper was blown up, making them even more miserable and filled with mixed feelings.

They were scattered across various blocks, streets, and even farmland and riverbanks, engaging in sporadic firefights with Li Xinghe's troops.

But for Li Xinghe, this was tantamount to wasting his golden time for a coup.

Therefore, Li Xinghe took out a megaphone, attached it to the drone, and broadcast the announcements everywhere:

"Soldiers of the 12th Brigade, I am Hoshikawa, the SPPC Director of the Japan-Mexico Joint Command. I now present you with a gentleman's agreement. You have been misled by Yasuomi Morishita, who has not told you that this march is a coup d'état, a rebellion aimed at occupying Tokyo. I assure you that as long as you lay down your arms, you will be able to return home safely and peacefully. Except for the deceased Maejima Masaki, everyone will be reinstated."

"Nobody will believe you."

For this kind of

The outrageous wartime promises made by Li Xinghe were met with complaints from everyone at the Qingshan Command Headquarters, who all criticized him for being delusional.

Indeed, in the chaos of the 12th Brigade, no one was willing to lay down their weapons and surrender; they all took Li Xinghe's promises as a lie.

Several mid-to-high-level executives who knew the inside story complained, "How did you manage to fool Maeda Naoto half a year ago?"

That gentleman's agreement completely fooled the elite troops of the First Division, causing them to be stretched out and besieged in downtown Tokyo.

Seeing that the other party did not react, Li Xinghe shrugged:

"Where's the food? I'm hungry too..."

Everyone arrived at the last minute and didn't have time to eat properly. But the advantage here is that they can prepare meals to the standard of the US military, without any corruption, and nearby restaurants were also temporarily opened, so everyone ate quite well.

Seeing the large pot of food being pushed over on a mobile shelf, Li Xinghe suddenly clenched his fist.

As a little devil familiar with Chinese history, he recalled a very special case.

So after exchanging a few words, Li Xinghe hung the loudspeaker on the cart and had someone take the cart to the opposite side of the street.

Of course, it wouldn't be necessary to have living people push the food pots. Li Xinghe had robots carry the large pots of food out, letting the aroma of the hot food attract the hungry Self-Defense Force soldiers.

"This is your dinner for tonight. Put your weapons by the roadside railing and come eat!"

“After you finish this meal and lay down your weapons, I guarantee that everyone will be released without charge.”

The remaining soldiers of the 12th Brigade, exhausted and hungry after a long day, were on the nearby streets. Their stomachs were rumbling and their eyelids were drooping.

Just as Li Xinghe thought, they really wanted to have a full meal, and were also terrified of the drones in the sky and the tanks and heavy artillery on the ground.

Driven by the dual psychological needs of safety and hunger, the Self-Defense Force soldiers, who already lacked fighting spirit, eventually laid down their weapons and gathered by the roadside to wait for their meal.

This time, Li Xinghe was a true gentleman. Not only did he provide food, but he also brought soup, bowls, and toilet paper, and allowed other Self-Defense Force soldiers to collect the body and offer prayers for the deceased.

In the end, apart from a small number of high-ranking officers who were nowhere to be found, the rest of the soldiers surrendered.

It takes several days to capture several thousand pigs, but it only takes a few hours to capture more than two thousand Self-Defense Force soldiers.

Under Li Xinghe's gentleman's agreement, the remaining Osprey helicopters and Chinook transport planes were forced to make emergency landings on farmland, essentially acknowledging the defeat of the 12th Brigade.

Everyone at the Qingshan Command was stunned:

"Are you crazy...? That's just a bowl of rice..."

Li Xinghe himself wouldn't have believed that a single bowl of rice could annihilate the entire 12th Brigade if he hadn't witnessed it firsthand.

But it happened anyway.

The other battalion commanders of the coastal combat brigade were dumbfounded:

What do we do next?

"Move northwest and continue the pursuit of the 32nd Company, which has moved rashly."

After Li Xinghe treated everyone to a hearty meal, he continued north without stopping and soon engaged the slow-moving 32nd Company.

At this moment, helicopters flew in the sky, and cannons roared on the ground, with the mech units making no attempt to conceal their menacing cannon muzzles.

For the first time, Tokyo residents are facing a very real problem.

What if a fight really breaks out?

During Koizumi's tenure, Tokyo was placed under martial law twice. The duration of martial law was gradually extended from 3 to 5 days, and the rules of martial law were gradually tightened, from a 12 o'clock curfew to a 10 o'clock curfew. The number of armored vehicles, fortifications and soldiers on the streets increased.

At that time, the citizens of Tokyo only knew how to rush forward to take photos. They knew nothing about the international situation, Japanese history and past events, let alone what the martial law measures meant.

But today, all the citizens of Tokyo witnessed a terrifying surge.

Black Hawk helicopters crashed in the sky, Chinooks were forced to make emergency landings in farmland, anti-aircraft missiles soared into the sky, and F-15 fighter jets roared as they swept low over Omiya City, which borders Tokyo and Saitama Prefecture, and over the heads of residents in Nerima Ward, Itabashi Ward, Asaka City, and Toda City, and above the Edogawa River flowing through Edogawa Ward into Tokyo Bay. Aircraft, missiles, rockets, and drones exploded indiscriminately like fireworks.

The internet has exploded. Those Japanese who cover their faces and pretend that Chinese people are still living in the past 30 years and that they are second to none in the world have to open their eyes and look at reality.

Netizens are discussing it wildly:

"No way, are they really Chinese?"

"Is it too late to embroider a red flag now?"

"The US military? Where are they? Weren't they supposed to protect us?"

"Reply: The US military was attacked in Okinawa."

Reply: It's clearly the US military that went to China to work.

In a frenzy of self-defense, some netizens even gave live demonstrations of how to quickly embroider a red flag, while others showed off their self-defense "three-piece set": a red flag, a Little Red Book, and a Chairman Mao badge. These inexpensive sets were selling for tens of thousands of yen.

While netizens were fiercely debating, soldiers cheered in the streets of Omiya City:

"Caught!"

The slow-moving and incompetent 32nd Company was terrified by the tanks, and their leader was easily arrested:

"Captain of the 32nd Ordinary Squadron, First Class Lieutenant Colonel, Masayoshi Okura."

A middle-aged man was dragged in front of Li Xinghe.

This unit set off from Omiya City and didn't even leave the city proper after a whole day, which is quite remarkable.

Li Xinghe glanced at it and immediately gave the order:

"Never mind them, gather the defeated troops, and head to Shinagawa Station."

The army turned around and set up an encirclement from the southwest to the southeast.

Calling it an encirclement seems a bit inappropriate, because after rushing dozens of kilometers from Nerima Ward and Edogawa River to Shinagawa Ward Station, right at the entrance of this only station capable of transporting troops over a large area, the hypothetical enemy division easily captured the entire 34th Infantry Regiment that had set off from Sakazuma Garrison.

There was no strategy involved, because there was only one major station between Sakazuma and Tokyo, and the Meiji Restoration Army had disembarked here when they entered Tokyo. For Li Xinghe, capturing people here was like spawn-camping in a video game—an easy task after a one-sided victory.

The Self-Defense Force soldiers leaving the station probably never imagined that they would become prisoners of war, surrendering with their weapons in hand, when they were just on a business trip.

However, Li Xinghe fought from the night of the 23rd to the morning of the 24th, without sleeping for a whole day and night, and wiped out the 12th Brigade and the 32nd and 34th Infantry Regiments in one go. In the eyes of observers, this can be described as an elite force enduring hardship.

Their leader was also brought before Li Xinghe:

"Captain of the 34th General Section Team, First Class Lieutenant, Kabuto Tomoyuki."

Li Xinghe waved his hand, and the two colonels were arrested and interrogated.

"What exactly happened?"

There was no need to drag them to the Green Mountain Command Headquarters dungeon; the two men, seeing the entire army wiped out, hastily confessed:

"Chief of Staff Morishita, after attending a meeting a few days ago, came back and summoned us to say..."

"They say the Chief of Staff is being rotated again, and he won't be replaced no matter what. They also say there's a scoundrel in the General Staff who likes to peddle American-made weapons and resell military supplies purchased with military funds. They even say he... he wants to usurp power... Who knew you were so young..."

The implication is that Li Xinghe is criticizing Li Xinghe for not taking good enough care of the Ground Self-Defense Force.

At this moment, Li Xinghe suddenly realized.

The crux of the problem lies in the rotation system for the Chief of Staff of the Self-Defense Forces. Originally, the Chiefs of Staff of the Army, Navy, and Air Force took turns serving as Chief of the General Staff, but Yoshida Keihide was the Chief of Staff of the Army. No matter how he changed positions, no matter how fiercely Kura Hiroaki of the Air Self-Defense Force and Saito Satoshi of the Maritime Self-Defense Force competed, Morishita Yasuomi could not get a turn.

The old man was filled with resentment. Seeing that someone like Nobuyuki Baba could enter Tokyo, he began to have his own ideas.

Unfortunately, there are ideas, but not many.

At least, they haven't been able to find out where Li Xinghe's home is.

Looking at the two middle-aged men, Li Xinghe said jokingly:

"What, you're not convinced? I masturbate in Tokyo Bay, does that mean all the pollution in Tokyo Bay is my fault?"

"Did you?"

At this moment, the communication devices on the two people were still ringing incessantly.

Li Xinghe picked it up directly and heard someone shout from inside:

"Big warehouse? Big warehouse? Where are you in the big warehouse?"

He said directly:

"I am Hoshigawa, Director of the Sppc of the Miri-Japan Joint Command."

The voice on the other end was clearly stunned:

"You... Masaki Maejima, wouldn't that mean..."

"He's dead. I killed him. I wiped out the entire Eastern Army. Who else wants to come and die?"

Li Xinghe said proudly.

The 12th Brigade had been driven to the brink of collapse. The foolish Masaki Maekawa, who had never participated in actual combat in his life, was now on the battlefield nearing retirement, openly broadcasting his location on his mobile phone while simultaneously directing the battle. He was fatally killed by a drone strike, ending his clown-like career in a near-suicidal manner.

The 1st Division hadn't even had time to appoint a successor, so Okura Masayoshi and Kabuto Tomoyuki were captured by Li Xinghe. Adding to this, the 1st Division Regiment and Maeda Naoyuki had already been wiped out six months prior. Therefore, it was essentially equivalent to Li Xinghe annihilating the entire Eastern Front of Japan in just six months. (Mio)

Li Xinghe's voice went from calm to fierce, even roaring:

"Who else!"

Silence fell over the communication channel.

Those officers who were unaware of the background quickly left the channel, hastily deleted their chat history, and even destroyed their identities, preparing to retire.

The atmosphere suddenly shifted from the Showa era to that of a kung fu movie.

……

Ryujo in Tokyo Bay.
