Yes, Prime Minister of Japan

Taiwan.

Major General Sun Jinde finally received orders from the Joint Command to arm the American troops who had been training in Taipei (making a fool of themselves) for two months and send them to the United States.

"Set off! You're going back home to create peace (or chaos)!"

On the shore, He Yang, imitating the old Japanese navy in the movie, swung his little cap around to bid farewell to the soldiers who were about to return home.

The farewell ceremony, reminiscent of the old Japanese Navy, naturally carries its own significance.

When they set off from the United States, they were already practically kamikaze pilots, so the Americans didn't really expect them to come back alive.

Now that they have completed their retraining in Taiwan, they are about to leave and never return to the United States to become the engine of war.

Isn't this a kind of counterattack by the Kamikaze pilots?

"Why are you still sleeping in shipping containers?"

The remnants of the U.S. First Army, who were departing from Keelung Port in Taiwan to return home, looked at the ships that came to pick them up with faces full of question marks.

My brother departed from San Diego, USA, and at least managed to take a troop transport ship. But once he got to the Philippines, he had to take a container ship to smuggle himself to Taiwan. Now, leaving Taiwan, shouldn't he at least be able to take a cruise ship?

However, it does not.

To transport a large quantity of remaining Taiwanese military equipment, such as M48 tanks and M113 troop carriers, the soldiers had very little living space. This time, Li Xinghe paid for a container ship to haul them back to the United States.

The officer was blowing his whistle on the ship:

"No nonsense! No rubbish! There are tents provided between each cargo ship. Don't go near the railings, or no one will save you if you fall. There are plenty of military rations. Go to the designated toilet area. When you return to San Diego, Pentagon officers will come to pick you up."

While these lousy soldiers were making a ruckus, the two army commanders, He Yang and Park Yoo-shin, who were responsible for escorting them, were chatting away in the rather well-decorated officers' lounge.

He Yang talks nonsense:

"The Tamamo-no-Mae is undergoing maintenance and inspections after its initial voyage, while the Japanese ships have gone to Shanghai for further outfitting. Six light carriers are resting in Tokyo Bay, and the Shinano and five new missile destroyers are still sleeping in the dock. If we could have a three-carrier battle group that we could use together, the big boss could stand up straight when he goes to Southeast Asia. It's really worrying, really worrying."

Park Yoo-shin criticized this person's remarks:

"Come on, you mean you want to wipe them all out? What kind of fighting power do those Southeast Asian countries have? We could easily wipe them all out except Vietnam. It's just pointless."

It's not that we look down on Southeast Asians.

The main problem is their weaponry and military capabilities; they could essentially be wiped out. Large-scale territorial disputes are rare these days, simply because the cost of social governance far outweighs the cost of financial and trade control.

"That's nonsense. When are you going to give that 'Geebo' from the Philippines a discount?"

He Yang pounded his thigh and shook it incessantly.

This is not a swear word; Gibo is a person.

Philippine Defense Minister Gilbert Teodoro, nicknamed "Gibo," has recently been denouncing the coalition forces' aggression against the Philippines at various ASEAN meetings. Especially after Lee Sung-ha brought in a large number of Coast Guard speedboats and South Korean soldiers, the Philippines was forced to flee throughout the South China Sea.

It's not just the Batam and Babuyan Islands that are the problem; Filipino fishermen can no longer get close to Scarborough Shoal, and reconnaissance speedboats of the Han Kuang Volunteer Army have appeared in the Palawan waterway.

So the Filipinos are really panicking right now, calling on everyone they can, begging and pleading to try and stabilize the situation.

Just then, an order came through the communication device:

"Splitting troops! Splitting troops! The Joint Operations Command has issued an order for us to send 2000 troops to Darwin to slap the Australians in the face."

Several generals jumped up, staring in astonishment at the satellite signal.

"what happened?"

"Our people and the Australians are fighting in Darwin."

He Yang was eager to try, so he handed over the task of supervising the troop transport to Park Yoo-shin, and led two thousand men off the ship to head south with the South Korean fleet that came to pick them up, to go and fight the Australian white men.

……

The conflict between Japan and Darwin, Australia, has become one of the most bizarre and unexpected news stories.

The incident began when the Australian Department of Defence visited Darwin and discovered that the 2500 U.S. Marines who were supposed to be stationed there did not look like Americans at all; they could only say "How do you do" and "Thanks" in English.

Then the Australian Department of Defence requested the US military to conduct personnel checks to see how many Asians lived in the US military camps.

It was clearly agreed that the US would station 2500 Marines here, but upon closer inspection, it turns out that even the camp commander is a US Army officer from the G Brigade sent by Li Xinghe. They appear to be Americans, but in reality, they are all Li Xinghe's men.

After the Australian Department of Defence exposed this loophole, it sparked conflict in Darwin, a city with a population of only 17. It's unclear who is inciting Asian residents to "occupy" Darwin; the port of Darwin, leased to China in 99, has long been filled with Chinese soldiers, becoming a reverse version of Hong Kong.

As a result, a street riot broke out, and a classic brawl unfolded in the small Darwin neighborhood.

Asian residents were ostracized by British thugs who set cars and streets ablaze, igniting the city. Asian soldiers responded by driving Hummers and brutally beating the thugs. Most of the replacement soldiers stationed there were South Korean debt collectors who had been beaten in Korea; their experience in Australia showcased the brutality of South Korean soldiers, their blows like blurs, leaving the white residents screaming in agony.

Upon seeing groups of Asian soldiers, local Australians became paranoid and began calling for help.

Therefore, in order to protect 'Asian immigrants', the troops stationed in Australia had to forcibly control the main streets of Darwin and set up machine gun bunkers to maintain social order.

In response to this situation, Australians were outraged, creating a commotion and causing a great deal of noise online.

Australian Defence Minister Richard Mars posted a comment on social media:

"We demand that Japan clarify that the 400 rotating guards stationed in Darwin are Japanese citizens, not members of the Joint Forces. We also demand compensation for our economic losses."

Japan has 400 amphibious troops stationed in Darwin, Australia, but in reality, 2500 of them are all from the coalition forces. Even ordinary Self-Defense Force soldiers don't like going overseas.

The Australian Prime Minister also criticized Japan:

"At the same time, we demand that the Japanese Joint Command clarify why the South Korean amphibious assault ship HMAS Maradona was present in Darwin Harbour, and why it was filled with an entire South Korean Marine Corps battalion, nearly 1000 people. We also want to know why a foreign military stationed on Australian soil believes it has local law enforcement authority?"

After this bizarre incident occurred in Australia, the news spread to Japan.

Li Xinghe himself never expected that Australia, with only 30,000 troops, a total of only 75 M1A2s and 30 South Korean K9 self-propelled howitzers, and unable to defend even a single beach, would dare to bark and howl at him.

Holy crap, what kind of stray dog ​​is that?

He, who was originally thinking about how to deal with the Japanese intellectual world, has now returned to his loyal command center.

Looking at the map showing Australia's three missile destroyer fleets deployed in full force, Li Xinghe smiled:

"They're really coming on strong. I thought the 055 destroyer's circumnavigation of Australia in 2025 had already woken up the Australians."

This is clearly someone looking for trouble.

The US has been short of troops for a long time, so it has been constantly drawing troops from various satellite states to fill its vacant overseas bases. Japan's deployment of a fixed number of personnel to Darwin Port is not a recent phenomenon, but something it has been doing for several years. Political observers believe that Australia's creation of this news at this time is somewhat deliberate, likely because the Labor Party is losing control of the situation.

Lin Youzi held her daughter Lin Meng's hand, calmly tapping her pen in thought:

"I'm afraid it's the issues surrounding the Darwin port lease, the Chinese community, and the proximity of Japan to China that have triggered the Australians' reaction."

Recently, she moved Lin Meng to live with her, hoping her daughter could learn more.

Li Xinghe looked at the map, pondering and analyzing:

"Is the Australian Labor Party about to collapse? With the US withdrawal from the Taiwan Strait, Australians' sense of persecution is probably about to burst out of their hearts. The Australian Conservative Party is gaining momentum and wants to develop some kind of 'autonomous defense' capability on their small island. Next year is the Australian general election, and the Labor Party, which has always governed with a social democratic and left-wing stance, is going to use this opportunity to show its toughness, right?"

To put it bluntly, it's because the US military left, and Australians, facing the whole of Asia, have gone crazy with anxiety.

But the Americans were relatively calm; they were about to make a strategic retreat, while the Australians went berserk, and the US could do nothing to help.

Do Americans know that Li Xinghe has ties to China?

know.

They even knew that Li Xinghe's Chinese heritage might extend his connection to China more deeply than they had imagined.

But they pretended they couldn't see it.

Because after the Taiwan Strait crisis was resolved, the Taiwan issue was no longer a shared burden between the US and China. Instead, the US smoothly completed its plan to withdraw to the second island chain. Now, the Philippines, which is constantly under attack, is at the forefront, while the Mariana Islands are the US's closest outpost.

The vast strategic distance of 5000 li (approximately 2,500 kilometers) between Tinian Island and Taiwan finally gave the United States a sigh of relief. The risk of war is no longer borne by the US; instead, they can watch from the sidelines.

Tawara Chikihime delivered the latest contact from the Pentagon.

The Pentagon stated: "Stop fighting and sit down to talk."

It means I don't care.

This is a legacy issue created by the Americans, who sent Li Xinghe's troops to be stationed in Australia. But now that they've fled, it's up to Li Xinghe to clean up this mess. It's very much like the British global evacuation of yesteryear.

Li Xinghe closed his eyes slightly:

"In a typical human village, dogs that are stressed are usually killed beforehand. Beat the hell out of them!"

Following Li Xinghe's order, the two aircraft carrier battleships, Jinhae and Koryo, at the Ulsan Shipyard in South Korea, entered a state of alert and set sail south with two battalions of South Korean troops and six missile destroyers.

The coalition forces sailed south through two air battleship squadrons into Southeast Asia, penetrating the chaotic and complex island nations.

Australians are panicking again, screaming wildly online, like a crazy howling army.

"Aaaaaaahhhhh! They've broken into our countrymen! Aaaaaahhhhh!"

……

While Australians were screaming online, Li Xinghe was called out of the military camp.

Sasaki Toya and Fuji Hinako sat in Yamato Kana's Maybach. All three women were wearing sunglasses and urged Li Xinghe to get in the car.

Hey, your daughter is about to give birth! Your daughter is about to give birth!

The same sentence was repeated twice, referring to Azuma Ai and her daughter respectively.

"what?"

Li Xinghe was taken to the Royal Hospital.

Dozens of women from the family gathered here, all standing on tiptoe, watching the lights flicker in the small delivery room.

“This is our family’s first…daughter’s daughter, right?” Maria exclaimed. “Now we’re the Alabama family.”

Alabama refers to the poorest and most frequently affected state in the United States.

Fortunately, the delivery room light came on quickly.

Chiyo Hina-hime pinched her son's ear, her eyes flashing with a sharp, piercing light.

Regardless, seeing a girl who had just turned 18, fresh out of a pure girls' high school, lying on the bed with a tender maternal expression, holding her adorable daughter, stirred the maternal instincts of several mothers. The other women in the family also cuddled and fussed over Azuma Ai, while casually giving Li Xinghe disdainful looks.

Scum.

So Li Xinghe was squeezed on the outside and couldn't squeeze in.

"Um……"

Li Xinghe shrugged helplessly.

Chiyo Hina wiped the sweat from Azuma Ai's forehead:

What name would you like?

My wife loves looking at her newborn daughter in her arms and has a strange feeling that she is both her daughter and her sister.

"Hana," she named her child.

Then Li Xinghe was ridiculed by the group, with several mothers criticizing him for stretching too far.

Li Xinghe couldn't help but retort, "Didn't you also have children? What's the difference between you and me?"

Misato, Mikasa, and Chiyo Hinaki looked embarrassed on the spot, while Xuan Zhihua, who was covering her stomach and pretending that she was not pregnant, quietly shrank her neck.

Then came strange statements like "I had children to inherit the family business" and "I only had children with my son out of necessity." In any case, the Jian family started criticizing each other again.

Finally, they shifted the blame to the Jian family's ancestral internal traditions.

It's all the ancestors' fault!

Done.

After settling down a bit at the hospital, Lin Youzi, dressed in a white coat, entered the Royal Hospital and told Li Xinghe:

"Large-scale clashes have occurred between Myanmar's armies, and this situation appears unusual. It is said that 200 million Myanmar migrants have fled to the northeastern states of India, and India is urgently deploying barriers. It is also said that India is preparing to build a 'Trump Wall' on the border to prevent illegal immigration."

Of course, the situation on the India-Myanmar border is extremely complex, with continuous mountain ranges. So even if the Indians used all their imported steel, they couldn't possibly block the thousands of kilometers of border.

But if this minefield in Myanmar explodes, it means that India and Bangladesh will be dragged into the abyss of regional chaos. The situation on the Yunnan border is even more troublesome.

Li Xinghe could only remain speechless:

"The American Civil War hasn't even started yet, but East Asia, Southeast Asia, Northeast Asia, and Australia are already in a state of frenzy."

Lin Youzi repeated her previous strategic assessment:

"This is what will happen after the regional hegemonic vacuum. The power of Asian countries will need to be rebalanced. The order under American rule has collapsed, and countries will have to return to a position based on their own strength. I'm afraid Southeast Asia will be hit by a series of wars."

Because after the "Global Counterterrorism Strategy," the "Pivot to Asia Strategy," the "Indo-Pacific Rebalancing Strategy," and the "Taiwan Strait Crisis," the United States has finally become unable to support its military doctrine presence in East Asia. Now, even the Seventh Fleet and the Eighth Army are trying to find ways to withdraw from East Asia.
