Yes, Prime Minister of Japan

Li Xinghe's solution was: if the US doesn't work, switch to another one – go and join the RMB.

Who cares if I become a concubine?

The Japanese yen can also offer concessions to China, continue to send money to China, and serve as a global financial infrastructure platform for the RMB.

Life goes on. If the man in the east goes under, he can find a man in the west to work with.

The next day.

After the news broke, the yen's value surged, nearing 170 yen to the dollar, and is rumored to be poised to return to the old level of 150 yen to the dollar. The increased openness of Japanese bonds to China allows Chinese capital to more easily use the yen as a springboard to circumvent global market pressures.

Major banks and the Tokyo stock market in Tokyo have prepared new financial channels specifically for Chinese capital and companies, and the yen is also attempting to shift its reserve holdings. As Li Xinghe said, the yen used to be a concubine of the dollar, but now it can be a concubine of the renminbi, or even a concubine of both simultaneously.

That's life in a small country; you can leave at any time and abandon your life at any time.

But the original owners of Japan, the Americans, were furious.

As Japan and the yen continue to depreciate, the US is furious, trembling with rage. It's like it's stabbing itself in the back while spreading its legs against its mortal enemy, with a green hat stuck on its head.

Vance fiercely criticized Li Xinghe as "ungrateful."

While the Pentagon and CIA remain neutral, they have also warned Li Xinghe.

Doing so would be tantamount to suicide; it would be best to stop the yen's advance as soon as possible.

That's it, we can't go any further.

Further on, the Chinese were allowed to infiltrate the palace.

Although Li Xinghe himself couldn't explain the difference between inserting halfway and inserting fully, that was the warning from the Americans.

……

Soon, those who opposed Li Xinghe began to rise up, with the tacit approval of the United States.

Shinjiro Koizumi and Takeo Akiba's secret operation garnered the tacit approval of many.

They gathered near the torii gate of Yasukuni Shrine, slipped inside the shrine grounds, and began their secret, whispered plot:

"Japan has reached its most dangerous moment."

"Through these three years of brutal struggle, we should have noticed that Li Xinghe, the colonial governor sent by the United States, is cruelly and shamelessly distorting our history and culture. If we let him continue to act recklessly, Japan will be finished."

"This battle must be won. We must take down Li Xinghe."

“If we fail, we will lose everything in Japan. We will lose our history, culture, national dignity, ethnicity, and stance, and become a completely small country.”

Many remnants of the right wing have gathered at the Yasukuni Shrine.

This is an extremely dangerous gamble.

Japanese National Police Agency Commissioner Yoshinobu Kusunobu was taken to the Yasukuni Shrine without his knowledge. He refused to cooperate and was subsequently placed under house arrest.

Officials in many modern governments refuse to cooperate.

After all, although Li Xinghe caused trouble, he was a normal person.

These right-wing lunatics are so feudal and backward.

Koizumi wouldn't cause trouble, so it was Takeo Akiba who was in charge of making the arrangements. As the head of the National Security Bureau, he had a great deal of authority.

In order to avoid being placed under house arrest, Metropolitan Police Department Commissioner Yoshiki Ogata feigned agreement to cooperate.

But he didn't want to die either.

So after issuing several instructions, Ogata Yoshimi himself slipped away with his wife and children.

Before leaving, Yoshimi Ogata called Hiroshi Nakajima, the Minister of Public Security who had already completely surrendered, to his side and handed him a letter: "Keep this letter. When the situation becomes dangerous and changes, give it to Li Xinghe."

Then he ran away.

This means that he has not abandoned his Japanese identity and political identity, nor has he forgotten the responsibilities he should fulfill as the Superintendent General of the Metropolitan Police Department. When faced with Li Xinghe, a colonial governor who invaded Japan with a special mission from the United States, he did not do nothing like people like Nakajima Hiroshi, Kanazawa Kohei, and Hasegawa Taishi who "talked about loving Japan but actually lay down and pretended to be dead."

But it also means that he chose to protect himself in the face of danger. He didn't lie down, but when danger and the survival of the nation were at stake, he chose to flee with his family instead of rushing to the front and sacrificing himself. Although everyone saw the terrible consequences of Li Xinghe's invasion of Japan, the problem was that no one wanted to step forward and become a leader.

If you can run, why fight?

"Nieludayo~"

……

The right-wing groups are unaware that Yoshimi Ogata has already fled.

They were discussing how to arrest Li Xinghe.

Someone gave Akiba Takeo some advice:

"We could consider using the reconstruction of the Yasukuni Shrine as a starting point."

Every year in the spring, the Yasukuni Shrine holds its annual grand festival. Traditionally, a Japanese government official participates in the ceremony, offering ritual food as a testament to a certain political stance. Since the 80s, with the rise of right-wing forces in Japan and their forceful right-wing centralization of the Yasukuni Shrine, the issue of visits to the shrine has become a major political focus worldwide.

Even the utterly shameless and immoral Britain remains wary of the Japanese right-wing government using the Tokyo meeting as an opportunity to drag everyone to the Yasukuni Shrine for further humiliation. Similarly, even the United States, which desperately needs Japan's rearmament and has reached some level of consensus and cooperation with the Japanese right wing, will not set foot on this filthy land.

Last year, the Yasukuni Shrine was attacked by suicide drones by the three sisters, Lee Dae-yeo, Lee Ju-yeon, and Cho Yeol-sook. The fire reached the Kagura Hall, and many of the main beams of the hall were destroyed. As a result, the shrine has been receiving funding from right-wing groups for repairs.

Therefore, considering the factors of the Spring Festival and the completion of the restoration, we can invite Li Xinghe and Kai to visit the Yasukuni Shrine and then take him down.

The Japanese had a surprising and unexpected idea at this moment that caught Li Xinghe completely off guard.

They argued that since "Kai Trump is an important guest of Li Xinghe," and "he took Kai to visit the Liaoning aircraft carrier, why can't he come to the Yasukuni Shrine?"

In short, to these Japanese right-wing politicians, the Yasukuni Shrine, which infiltrated the homes of WWII war criminals in 1978 and reopened the Yukukan in 1986 to promote the evils of war, seems like a paradise on earth.

Putting aside the fact that they are disliked by everyone and even the Imperial Family, who despise them for polluting the Yasukuni Shrine, they themselves consider the mess they created to be a very honorable and remarkable place.

So, they really did invite Li Xinghe to take Kai to the Yasukuni Shrine.

"Holy shit!"

Li Xinghe was stunned when he heard about the other party's plan.

He didn't understand, he was full of frustration, and he gazed into the distance.

What kind of bizarre Japanese thought process could lead someone to believe that a Chinese-American colonial governor would accept their invitation to take Kayleigh, the eldest granddaughter of the US president, to visit the Yasukuni Shrine, which has become a stronghold for right-wing activities since 1978? What will the 15 billion Chinese and Korean people of all ethnicities think? What will the Pentagon think?

Putting aside other issues, what about the Imperial Family, who have been so ruthlessly persecuted by the right wing that they no longer dare to visit shrines? They have no legitimacy whatsoever; in essence, they are prisoners of the defeated side in World War II. Li Xinghe still wants to use their facade for political purposes.

Therefore, he couldn't understand what kind of thought process the Japanese right wing had to think that Li Xinghe would gladly visit the Yasukuni Shrine and then be arrested by the right wing and the Tokyo Metropolitan Police while entertaining Kai.

He issued an order to summon all troops to the Imperial Palace and told them that a great battle was to be fought that night.

"Oh!"

"Charge! Charge! Charge! If you don't charge, you're not human!"

Filled with righteous indignation, the crowd entered the imperial palace.

As the troops assembled, the Japanese police were already in an uproar, having received so many strange orders that they themselves could hardly believe it.

Seeing that it was getting late, Koizumi couldn't help but ask:

"When are you coming? It's already 8 p.m.

Although their original plan was to act at night.

Li Xinghe replied:

"It's coming soon..."

Koizumi was somewhat puzzled:

"Are they not coming?"

Upon hearing that the troops had assembled, Li Xinghe smiled and hung up the phone.

"What are you talking about? I am indeed going to visit the Yasukuni Shrine. However, since it is inconvenient for me to go in person, I have specially dispatched my armored tanks and armored infantry fighting vehicles, along with my 125mm smoothbore cannons, 20mm autocannons, 14.5mm coaxial machine guns and large tank tracks, to visit the Yasukuni Shrine."

Putting down his phone, Li Xinghe stood on the high platform of the Imperial Palace and turned to face his army.

At this moment, in the Imperial Palace, which had been turned into a huge construction site, hundreds of tanks and more than two hundred armored vehicles of various colors were parked, and Chinese, North Koreans and South Koreans stood around the vehicles.

"My soldiers, my compatriots."

Li Xinghe said.

"We have all suffered the ruthless aggression, devastation, and persecution of Japanese imperialism; we all remember that history. Now, there are still people in Japan who attempt to revive these madmen, to revive imperialism, and even want to arrest me and send me to prison. Will we allow that?"

"

"No way!"

The Imperial Palace was filled with a deafening roar.

Li Xinghe scanned the crowd for a moment and then gave the order:

"Now I give you my order: raze the Yasukuni Shrine! Have the entire army repeat this three times."

The soldiers were overjoyed:

"Destroy the Yasukuni Shrine! Destroy the Yasukuni Shrine! Destroy the Yasukuni Shrine!"

"set off!"

Li Xinghe randomly pointed north.

"charge!"

"revenge!"

The enraged soldiers, like wildfire of vengeance, charged away with murderous intent.

To subdue the right-wing forces hiding in the Yasukuni Shrine, you don't need to go too far. From the Edo Castle ruins platform where the tank cluster is located, head north across the Kotachi Bridge, follow the main road through the Imperial Palace Kitanomaru, and you'll find the Yasukuni Shrine's Great Torii Gate right outside.

From the imperial palace northwards, the soldiers bravely raced forward.

So much so that some people deliberately cut off other vehicles, hoping to be the first to break down the gates of the Yasukuni Shrine.

The VT4 main battle tank charged forward relentlessly, smashing the so-called sacred torii gate of the Yasukuni Shrine to pieces without hesitation, and crushing the Chinese-made tank into the passageway of the Yasukuni Shrine.

The K2 tank next to it charged forward, crushing and breaking the statue of Masujiro Ōmura on the shrine's path. Although he himself and his idealized image of the Japanese army and Yasukuni Shrine have little connection with modern Japanese fascist right wing, he just happened to be placed here.

Heavy artillery opened fire, and the seemingly quiet and secluded Kagura-den of the Yasukuni Shrine was transformed into a sea of ​​fire by the 125mm shells. Modern technology has restored these buildings to look brand new, rendering them essentially worthless modern industrial products, and everyone is indifferent to the spray coming in all directions.

Some of the right-wing police officers inside the stadium died on the road before they could even put up a fight.

He Yang shouted wildly:

"That's awesome! Let me tell you, if the Liaoning carrier group that ran away knew what we were doing, they would be kicking themselves."

Hu Zhantian also cheered:

"Damn it, when I go back to Changde, they'll have to put a separate page for me, Old Hu, in the family genealogy!"

They made a big joke about Zhang:

"It wouldn't be a problem to issue you a separate copy."

Everyone took selfies with their phones while dismantling the equipment.

This created a bizarre scene: Chinese, North Koreans, and South Koreans were firing cannons while taking countless selfies with their phones, even searching for light sources to find the best angle for their selfies.

Then they discovered that taking a group photo while firing at Yukukan, which promoted the war crimes of Japanese imperialism, had a unique charm.

Blow his brother to smithereens!

Inside the venue, the right-wingers and ordinary police officers who had been watching Li Xinghe's furious attack on the Yasukuni Shrine were dumbfounded.

They either died directly from the artillery bombardment, or they were beaten by soldiers in the ruins of collapsed houses, and some were simply beaten to death.

An hour later, Li Xinghe arrived.

The soldiers all raised their fists in cheers, their eyes brimming with tears:

"loyalty!"

This time, it's truly revenge.

Standing atop the tank, gazing at the surrounding scenery illuminated by the streetlights, Li Xinghe suddenly realized that the Yasukuni Shrine was actually very close to the heart of Japan. It was located just outside the Kitanomaru gate of the Imperial Palace, north of the famous Budokan.

This outrageous place, covering an area of ​​over 10 square meters—enough to build several schools and residential communities—is no longer worth preserving.

Li Xinghe clapped his hands and said mercilessly:

"No one is allowed to clean up the site, no one is allowed to take away any memorial tablets of the victims, no one is allowed to clear away the so-called war relics, just flatten this place, leave nothing behind. From now on, connect this place with the Kitanomaru Park of the Imperial Palace and build a heavy armored tank barracks to suppress Tokyo."

In accordance with South Korean military custom, this military camp located at Gudanban will henceforth be called Yasukuni-dae.

Or, to expand on that, call it the Yasukuni Shrine for Demons. With the daily rumble of armored vehicles, they'll solidify this land that right-wingers dream of.
