In Tokyo, clouds accumulate.

The placards and ribbons that were sent off for the troops to fight in North Korea some time ago were already covered with dirt, and the howling cold wind attacked the city from all directions. Thin floating ice floated on the bay, constantly hitting the ships that were supposed to go to North Korea. The soldiers were ordered to stay where they were supposed to go to North Korea, and the food and supplies that were supposed to be sent to North Korea were seized. The number of military and police patrolling the streets increased several times, but they still could not block the doubts, uneasy and even angry eyes behind the windows and door cracks...

When the military and police passed, people began to gather together and whisper.

"Is it true? The army fired?"

"I don't know either, but I heard from my brother-in-law that his troops are moving to Kinki and thousands of traitors have been arrested at Osaka."

"They must be lackeys from China and the United States! I heard that the Americans also sold a large fleet to the Chinese, damn white ghosts! They condemn us for suppressing the rebellion, but deliberately pretended not to see the import food demands made by our country. It's really abominable! They have now completely turned to China and want to drive us away from North Korea and the north."

"Is that true?! Why do they do this? Don't they understand that this is Asia? If our country does not respect our country, we will be respected by Asia?"

"Don't worry, our navy is invincible! If you can defeat Lucia's second world fleet, you can also defeat the American and Chinese fleets."

"Don't always talk about war, let's look at the reality. How long has we not increased our wages? The daily wage is only enough to buy one and a half liters of rice, and the prices have increased twice. We can no longer afford to eat rice! Now even the mixed grains are starting to rise. If we throw away the grain-producing area in southern North Korea, what will we eat!"

"What does that matter! Don't worry, as long as you defeat the Chinese and Americans, you can regain Manchuria. I heard that the rich black soil there can be provided for all the Japanese to eat and drink! Now it's time to sacrifice, and all the rebels should be executed! What's so great about eating some grains? As long as you win, you will have endless rice and meat."

"But I heard that the Korean War is not good. The Chinese army has the support of the United States and has now reached Pyongyang."

"Nonsense! This time is different from last time. I have seen the Yokosuka fleet dispatched with my own eyes. What kind of army can withstand the powerful Imperial Navy?"

"The navy can't drive on the shore again"

Rumors spread among low wooden houses like crazy vines. Although Tokyo's security is better than other places, and a large-scale commotion has not yet erupted, who knows how terrible the power it contains in this calm? What should I do if even Tokyo is in turmoil? Now that the Lord Tanaka has resigned, although the Korean War has barely stabilized the defense line, it was too much land lost before and it was too difficult to organize a counterattack. Moreover, there must be no commotion.

On the car heading towards Chiyoda Palace, Nagata Tetsuyama frowned and glanced at Okamura Yasuke and Isotani Ryosuke from time to time. To be honest, he was different from the two. Although he also wanted the military headquarters to take power, he prefers to adopt gradual national reforms. But now the situation has changed. The Mi turmoil has been moving towards armed riots. Even Tanaka had to resign, resulting in no more people in the country who could hold back the situation! This would have to rely on the royal family with absolute prestige to suppress this surging revolutionary wave! But is this good? If the royal family comes to the front and maintains the fundamental constitutional system of the country, where will Japan go?

He was a little uneasy.

Soon, under the leadership of Minorhito Hirohito, they met the young Prince Hirohito, with the room also being the popular Komsui Fumi and a short and thin Major officer.

"Let me introduce it. This is Kenji Dohihara, who is in charge of the intelligence department of the General Staff Headquarters." Minorhiko Higashi is afraid that the few people will not understand Kenji Dohihara, so he also emphasized his tone: "He has received several praises from General Fukushima Anshoka."

Fukushima Anmasa is the famous father of intelligence in the Japanese military and the first general who had no military post before. I don’t know how many young people in Japan want to get his praise. Since he has praised it several times, it means that Kenji Dohira may have been identified as the next person like Akashi Motojiro, so Nagata Tetsuyama and others secretly recorded him. This made Dohira, who came to the palace for the first time and saw Hirohito, even more cramped, and his eyes were not squinting and his whole body was nervous.

"Master Doihara, can you tell me about the situation in the Northeast?" Hirohito asked the maid to pour tea for everyone.

Doihara was nervous, but he didn't expect that Hirohito would ask himself first as soon as he spoke. Fortunately, he put a lot of effort in the Northeast and immediately told all the things that happened in the past few years: "The Chinese people rarely report on the Northeast. In fact, they attacked the Russian poor party guerrillas very severely! After the Siberian Railway was controlled, they had become weaker and weaker. In the summer of last year, the guerrillas lost half of their troops. Now, on the front line of Chita, Hailanpao and other outer Xing'anling, China Yangqiu has deployed 5 divisions and tens of thousands of National Guards, with several times more troops than the guerrillas. I think a larger-scale attack will be launched in the summer."

Newspapers are indeed rare in the wars in the northeast, and they don’t even report them in the Republic of China themselves, so Konoe Fumi was also interested and asked: “Master Doihara, according to your statement, the Chinese should have the ability to wipe out them, why are they dragging them all the time?”

"Population!" Kenji Doihara narrowed his eyes and was very serious: "The land in Siberia is very special and can only be cultivated in summer. So Yang Qiu's intention is very sinister. He deliberately condoned the existence of guerrillas and then used the summer to launch a bandit suppression war, resulting in a large amount of land not being cultivated throughout the summer. This forced many Russians to leave. We do not have detailed data, but we have done some investigations. The Russians from Chita to Vladivostok used to be between 6 million and 7 million, but now it has dropped to less than 4 million, while the proportion of Chinese people has increased from less than 500,000 to 1 million."

"This damn butcher! No wonder he never allowed reporters to report on the Northeast." After the increase in the proportion of Han people, the Siberian region could achieve long-term stable rule, which means it is getting farther and farther for the greedy Japan. So Fumikoto cursed and asked: "What should we do? Are we just sitting in a daze like this?"

"Koetsu! Pay attention to your etiquette." When Tokuraki saw that Koetsu Fumi was out of control, he quickly reminded him. On the contrary, Hirohito didn't care at all and waved his hand: "Today is time to speak freely, so there is no need to talk so many rules."

Although Hirohito was generous, Fumiko Koe secretly reminded himself not to overdo the show. After apologizing, he continued to ask: "Siberia is being eaten by China little by little. North Korea is also facing difficulties. Now the traitors gathered again. My great Japanese Empire has reached a critical moment of life and death! I think first of all, we should take decisive measures against domestic rebels and continue to increase troops to North Korea to regain the northern land. Only by deploying positions along the Yalu River threatening Yang Qiu can we ensure the implementation of long-term influence."

Nagata Tetsuyama looked at Oebe Fumi-ri with an idiot look and deployed along the Yalu River? It was a joke. Let’s not talk about whether North Korea can be recovered. The mountainous areas of North Korea, which are densely covered by the Yalu River, are not suitable for long-term combat. Hirohito’s eyes were sharp-eyed. After seeing his little move, he asked: “Your Excellency Nagata, is it your father who wrote to me and proposed to unite with Russia?”

"Yes!" Nagata Tetsuyama nodded and said, "As the great Japanese emperor, I don't want to hide it from His Royal Highness the Prince. The Korean War was not going well, and the soldiers had not recovered from the last war. The gap between us and the National Welfare Army was too big! The current domestic situation may need to be prepared to lose North Korea. So I think we should contact Russia! Although we have an unpleasant past with Russia. However, the fact that Yang Qiu's killing of Moscow has caused widespread disgust. After losing control of the Siberian railway, Russia is equivalent to losing all the Far East. So they will definitely make a comeback. I think the enemy of the enemy is a friend."

"So, is Nagata-kun optimistic about Moscow's final victory?"

"I can't guarantee it. But if they can defeat the Poles, or reach an armistice with the Poles, then victory is foreseeable."

Okamura Yanji was very worried about joining hands with Russia and asked: "Nadaya, I agree with the use of the Russians, but our country is different from Moscow. If such an riot is unbearable, our country will not bear it! There is no country or government in the international community willing to deal with them for the time being. Will our doing so attract more hostility?"

Nagata Tetsuyama said: "Okamura-kun's concerns make sense, but I think the existence of Yang Qiu can help our country isolate those radical ideas. At least the pressure we face is much smaller than that in northwest China. Secondly, I think secret alliances should be adopted to avoid international pressure. The third point is also very important! The Russian civil war consumes a huge amount of industrial facilities in the entire Urals and Ukraine region. Moscow reconstruction requires massive amounts of funds and machinery and equipment. Our country should take the initiative to participate! Selling the machinery and equipment they need for rare minerals and grain, which can also help our country overcome the economic embarrassment as soon as possible."

Hirohito was also very moved when he heard that there were so many benefits, but he had to get rid of the current predicament first and asked: "Colonel, please tell me, is Taiwan and North Korea really going to lose? Didn't the military say that most of North Korea is still under control and the front line has been stabilized? What should we do if there is Huata Island? Our country has invested millions to find oil, and the losses will be very large. In addition, what should our country do next after losing the north? What should we do with the current commotion?"

These questions were considered repeatedly before Nagata Tengshan came and answered confidently: "Your Highness the Prince! The last war was consumed too much, and the troops did not recover from it. Yang Qiu also provoked disputes and threatened our country to make concessions because of this! North Korea is all mountainous, and this terrain will consume a lot of long-term combat! So I think that the war without hope and no harvest should not continue! Losing Taiwan and North Korea will shame our country, but it can awaken the honor and disgrace of the people. We cannot give up on Huatai Island, but it can

To convince Britain and the United States to support our country's temporary control, learn from the UK to set a deadline. Doing so will allow our country to obtain a longer period of rehabilitation and rest. If Yang Qiu refuses, it will also increase the disgust in Europe. Losing North Korea will be very unfavorable for our country, but this is also a way to temporarily get rid of troubles and conflicts and rehabilitation. It is shameful to not have the north, but it also gets rid of a big burden! We can transfer Taiwanese immigrants to German Guinea region to increase the number of immigrants, and where the land area is several times that of Taiwan, I think it is of great development value."

"You mean, our country should turn to the south?" Hirohito actually thought about developing south, but it was a traditional British-French colonial area. Will doing so conflict with them?

Nagata Tetsuyama knelt on the straw mat and said seriously: "Your Highness, whether it is the United States or Britain, are they really willing to go to war with our country?! If they have enough strength and determination, how could Yang Qiu enter the northwest? As for your last question, please redeemed the officials and cannot answer it."

Hirohito knew that it was not that he did not dare to answer the last question, but that no one dared to answer this question! After thinking about it, he suddenly asked: "Everyone, now is the most painful moment for my great Japanese empire. You need to exert your strength. Are you willing?"

Okamura Yasuki and Isotani Ryosuke, who didn't talk much, stood up and nodded their loyalty without hesitation. Fumiko Koemi had been waiting for this opportunity for a long time, but Kenji Doihara and Tetsuyama Nagata were stunned and looked at each other quickly. Both of them understood that as long as they nodded today, they would never be able to get rid of the shadow of the Imperial Sect for the rest of their lives.

But are there any other options now?

Seeing everyone nodding, Hirohito, who had long wanted to do something big, was very pleased and expressed his desire to have dinner with everyone. When he got up, he did not forget to say to Minorhiko Hiroshita: "Uncle, go and tell His Excellency Tanaka to reach an agreement with China as soon as possible! I will also convince my father to donate money to the people to buy food in the name of the royal family, and ask those capable people to generously help the empire overcome this crisis."

It is absolutely honor to be able to have lunch with the crown prince. Fumiki Koemi nodded happily, but remembered Hirohito's last question just now and said worriedly: "Your Highness, what should I do in China? Yang Qiu has already reached into the empire, and his national society thoughts are spreading among those traitors."

"Yes, what should I do?" Hirohito stopped, and Waiwai's neck was actually very worried.

This action made Nagata Tetsuyama frown quietly. He was young and decisive in his work, but his political means and experience were very insufficient. What would he bring to Japan after he came to the front? Can he really lead Japan out of the predicament against Yang Qiu as everyone expected? When will Japan's next wings show up?
