When he heard Yang Zhenggang closing the door of the interrogation room, Levi did not turn his head, but continued to look at Kurasuke Ueda in front of him.
Although Yang Zhenggang was not unable to listen to what he was going to communicate with Takura Suke.
But the main purpose of arresting Kurasuke Ueda this time was not because of what he said to Yang Zhenggang and others, but because Kurasuke Ueda had put the underground Red Party organization in Shanghai under great threat.
Therefore, part of my arrest of Kurasuke Ueda this time was partly out of public interest. After all, Kurasuke Ueda is the section chief of Shanghai Special High School. If something happens to him, something will happen to Shanghai Special High School as well.
In addition, the special high school class is not favored by the Japanese military department, and accidents have happened one after another, so the section chief needs to be replaced more frequently than anyone else.
Therefore, it is natural to imagine what will happen to Shanghai's special higher education courses.
As for the other aspect, it was naturally out of selfishness, so there were some things that Yang Zhenggang could not hear, otherwise problems would arise.
Although Li Wei also has some ideas about Yang Zhenggang and others, the time has not yet come, so he cannot act rashly yet.
"Okay, Mr. Ueda, don't deceive yourself. You just came to Shanghai from Japan. Don't you know the situation in your homeland?"
"If I remember correctly, a statistics from the third year of the Showa era (1928) shows that there were 1,619 Western restaurants, 1,568 Yangmai noodle restaurants, and 1,504 snack bars in Tokyo that year, supplying "Oden" (
There are 945 stores including konjac, tofu, taro, eggs, radish, etc. cooked together with soy sauce, sugar, and other Kanto-style foods, 895 sushi restaurants, 881 cafes, and 459 tempura restaurants.
There are 444 ramen restaurants, 11 river fish restaurants, 10 loach restaurants, 4 grilled river eel restaurants, 3 Korean restaurants, 2 tofu restaurants, and 1 turtle restaurant.”
"However, as the Japanese authorities continue to intensify their external expansion and gradually become fascist internally, the burden of the war on the Japanese people is increasing day by day, and their daily lives are also facing an increasingly severe situation."
"Now the whole of Japan has been involved in the raging waves of war, and arms expenditures have also increased sharply. More than 70% of national production has been forcibly included in the military industry, so the people's lives have fallen into a state of hardship and embarrassment."
"In January 1933, the Japan Police Department issued regulations banning so-called special restaurants such as bars and cafes."
"And two months ago, the "Nara Shimbun" also released a statistical report. At this time, among the approximately 15,000 restaurants in Tokyo, there were about 2,600 teahouses (cafes that serve black tea and coffee), and coffee shops (cafes that serve black tea and coffee).
There are about 2,000 simple Western restaurants serving foreign wine and meals."
"This number is already a quarter of the number at its peak. If the war continues, Mr. Ueda, do you think the situation will get better?"
"Moreover, as Japan's overseas aggressive wars expand, the supply of food becomes increasingly scarce, and the normal people's lives in the past gradually collapse."
"The cause of the food shortage is not only the substantial increase in the military's demand for food, but also the fact that young and middle-aged laborers responsible for food production have been drafted to overseas battlefields and munitions factories, the construction of transportation roads, etc., leaving a large amount of cultivated land deserted, and the country's
Grain production is decreasing year by year.”
"Furthermore, five months ago, your so-called base camp promulgated the National Mobilization Order Law. In order to promote overseas wars, all military matters are given priority. Cities and villages are covered with stickers such as "Before the war is won, we must live frugally."
slogan.”
"Even in order to prevent merchants from raising prices, the "Regulations on the Suppression of Sales Prices of Items" were promulgated on July 9, stipulating that relevant authorities at all levels of government have the right to impose price limits on items deemed necessary and announce them in the form of a notice.
.
"Therefore, these things also indicate one thing. The so-called war you launched has not allowed your people to live the so-called happy life you said. Instead, it has made them more and more miserable."
"So Mr. Ueda, do you think the Japanese people really don't know this? Do they really not feel this? Will they be willing to give up everything for the so-called "holy war" in the future?"
"And if I'm correct, since the Sino-Japanese War, the number of members of your anti-war alliance in Japan has also been increasing. In just over a year, the number of people has increased by more than five times."
"This shows that the Japanese people are constantly awakening. They are no longer willing to be pawns, and they no longer want to fight. So what are you going to do? Destroy them? It is obviously impossible!"
"So what kind of situation will Japan face next? Do you really think that they will be a group of fools who will always listen to your words?"
At this moment, Levi also went through everything in his mind about Japan's situation in recent years. The purpose was to let Kurasuke Ueda know that it was impossible for Japan to win in this war.
"Who are you anyway?"
Ueda Kurasuke finally spoke, and at this time Ueda Kurusuke was also staring at Li Wei, as if he wanted to see through Li Wei.
To be honest, when Li Wei said these things, he was very surprised in his heart.
Because he has been in Japan for the past two years, he naturally has some understanding of the situation in Japan.
Therefore, he also understood that what the man sitting in front of him said was true!
Coupled with the things Li Wei said just now, he started to feel a little panicked.
There are some things that you really can't think about seriously. Once you think about it seriously, Ueda Kurasuke found that he was getting more and more irritable in his heart.
Of course, at his age, he has seen things that he should see, and he has already understood the truths that he should understand, so he knows that if a country does not have the support of ordinary people, then the country will not look good on the outside.
How powerful they may be, but in the end they are all empty and unreliable.
So he was really panicking at this time!
That's why he asked such a question.
After all, the man sitting in front of him knew the situation in Japan very well.
To be honest, even for him, it is a little difficult to tell these things.
But the man in front of him was chatting here, as if he had picked it up at his fingertips. How could he not be surprised and curious?
