It's raining heavily outside, and the rain is so heavy that it's scary.
Chiang Kai-shek stood in front of the window and watched for a while, then turned around and took a sip of water from the cup.
Kurogane sat on the sofa next to him, tasting the whiskey in his hand with great interest. Drought or heavy rain had nothing to do with him.
"A severe drought will be followed by a severe flood, and a severe flood will be followed by a severe epidemic." Chiang Kai-shek sat down and said, "Your Führer Division must also be prepared. I have already asked people to prepare medicines. The plague must not appear in the army."
Kurogie put down the wine glass in his hand: "I have ordered to pay attention to the occurrence of infectious diseases. I have also mobilized two domestic medical teams and instructed that not only the army, but all Chinese in North Korea can seek our help.
But we must find a way to politely refuse the North Koreans’ requests for help..."
"We are ready to take action against North Korea." A smile appeared on Chiang Kai-shek's face: "We have been preparing for several years. Now that everything is ready, we are just waiting for the top figures in North Korea to do something stupid."
Those "upper-level figures" in North Korea are indeed people who have not considered the natural disaster that is happening in front of them. Li Ju, Li Ku, Rhee Syngman, Li Donghui or Kim Jiu, they are more concerned about this power.
Who is the final winner in the competition.
No matter how many North Korean people die, they will never gain even one more right...
The only thing that made them unhappy about the continuous heavy rains was that it was inconvenient to travel. Other than that, they didn't think there was anything inappropriate...
Urgent letters from all over the country have been left idle on their desks. The focus of their current dispute is who should be the finance minister.
The former finance minister unfortunately passed away from illness. The choice of the new finance minister means who can better control the country's financial power in his own hands...
Everyone is eager to get the support of the Chinese, but as the plenipotentiary representative of the Chinese government in North Korea, Chiang Kai-shek still expressed his attitude:
Don’t participate, don’t interfere!
He has even stated many times that North Korea's affairs are their internal affairs. As the chief mediator, he is only responsible for mediating conflicts within North Korea and does not interfere in the appointment of North Korean officials.
This plenipotentiary representative of the Republic of China in North Korea quickly won the favor of most North Koreans. His view of North Korea was completely different from that of the Manchu and Japanese rule.
But the more he behaved like this, the more the upper echelons of North Korea wanted his support. Later, more and more people in North Korea gradually called on the Chinese representatives to make their own statements on the North Korean issue.
However, Chiang Kai-shek still adopted a two-word policy as always:
silence!
The heavier the rain fell, the more Chiang Kai-shek showed his silence...
The floods in North Korea have been out of control, and various places have been flooded, followed by new disasters caused by massive mudslides.
More than 70% of North Korea's land was ravaged by floods. About 10,000 people died or disappeared, and hundreds of thousands were left homeless.
But everything is just the beginning.
At the end of July and the beginning of August, the torrential rain that had ravaged North Korea for more than half a month finally stopped. Just when the North Koreans who had lost their homes were helpless to deal with the flooded land, a greater disaster broke out:
plague!
The horror of the plague and the huge destructive power it brings are far greater than droughts and floods.
A severe drought must be followed by a severe flood. This is a law of nature. However, a large-scale plague following a severe flood is completely man-made. Especially in this historical period.
It can even be said that the plague after the flood can be avoided!
But once the corpses of animals and people cannot be processed in time, allowing bacteria to spread rapidly, then the plague is inevitable...
But in North Korea, this is exactly the situation!
The North Korean government's indifference to disasters quickly made the situation after droughts and floods worse and eventually became uncontrollable...
Batteries of Koreans who survived droughts and floods faced the plague and had no ability to resist. They could only collapse in despair and then die...
The responsibility lies not with God, but with the North Korean government...
In August alone, nearly 10,000 North Koreans were killed by the plague, and the plague swept through the entire North Korea like a tornado. A large number of North Koreans were unable to resist the plague, and could only watch this evil spreading unscrupulously across the land of North Korea.
.
The Chinese government subsequently announced that in view of the ongoing spread of the plague in North Korea, China would set up a special medical department on the China-North Korea border to prevent and control the plague from entering China.
Compared with North Korea, the Chinese government's response is extremely fast. This also highlights the incompetence and numbness of the North Korean government...
Finally, North Koreans are angry!
They have absolutely no idea of the significance of the existence of their own government, and have no idea of what the government can bring and do for them!
Various places began to cry and hold large-scale protests against the government's incompetence and shamelessness!
In Seoul, the anger that had been building up in the hearts of North Koreans finally exploded! They held rallies one after another and took to the streets for large-scale demonstrations, demanding that the government step down and give the North Korean people an explanation.
The upper-level rulers of North Korea suddenly woke up.
It seems that in just one night, all of Seoul and all of North Korea have become their opponents and their enemies!
"The big march, the big demonstration is going on!" In Changdeokgung Palace, those North Korean leaders who had fought to the death for their rights finally sat together for a rare occasion to discuss the current chaotic situation in North Korea.
"About 200,000 people throughout Seoul participated in the demonstrations, and the so-called supporters of these mobs in other places are also gathering towards North Korea." Syngman Rhee, the "Plenipotentiary Prime Minister of the Kingdom of North Korea", looked extremely anxious: "
According to our intelligence, in the past few days, thousands of demonstrations and riots have occurred across North Korea, with more than two million people participating, and some police officers have also joined the ranks of sympathizers...
"
"Suppression must be resolute!" "Minister of National Defense" Li Donghui said with murderous intent: "What are the slogans of these rioters? But whether it is drought or floods, they are all caused by nature and have nothing to do with the government.
relationship, they were just instigated by people with ulterior motives as an excuse to oppose the government..."
Most people were in favor of suppression. At this time, they set their sights on the "Prince of Dayiyi" Li Kuo. The king of North Korea, Li Kuang, was not very involved in affairs. It was the "Prince of Dayiyi" who made all the decisions?
"
"Suppression?" Obviously, Li Kuan seemed a little hesitant: "Have you all considered what consequences the suppression will have? Will it arouse stronger resistance from the people?"
"Yes!" Syngman Rhee answered without hesitation: "But compared with the consequences once the riot reaches the point of being uncontrollable, the problems caused by the suppression are completely within the range we can bear. The situation is already very bad.
On the streets of Seoul, there have even been calls for His Majesty the King to abdicate."
Li Hao, who had been listening silently at the edge, twitched at the corner of his eyes.
I can endure anything, but it is absolutely unacceptable for me to get down from this position that I have finally recovered from...
He glanced at his brother Li Kuan and then nodded slightly.
"Do the Chinese know?" Li Ku asked the question he was most concerned about: "This must be approved by the Chinese side, especially their chief mediator!"
Syngman Rhee quickly said: "I have already contacted Mr. Chiang. Mr. Chiang said that this is an internal matter of North Korea and the Chinese will not interfere. What they are most concerned about at the moment is how to prevent the plague from spreading to China."
In the ** camp. At the same time, I also went to the ** camp to take a look. Their military discipline is strict and they all stay peacefully in their own barracks."
"Oh, that's good." Li Ku breathed out lightly.
As long as the Chinese and their military don't interfere, everything will be much easier to handle.
"Minister Prime Minister, I will entrust you with full authority to suppress!"
As soon as Li Kuo said his words, Syngman Rhee said hastily: "No, I don't think I am suitable for this job. This requires the help of our military, and the Minister of National Defense is more suitable for this job."
He clearly knows what consequences the suppression will face, and he will become the enemy of all North Korea.
But Defense Minister Lee Dong-hui was completely different from what he thought. In his opinion, as long as he could successfully suppress these mobs, he would become a hero and he would have the upper hand in the battle with Syngman Rhee.
After thinking about this, Li Donghui readily agreed: "I am honored to take on this heavy responsibility and share the worries of His Majesty. I will establish a martial law headquarters and personally command it. In the shortest possible time, it will be carried out cleanly and efficiently."
Get rid of these mobs!"
"Thanks to the Minister of National Defense for everything." Li Kuo said weakly: "However, we must pay attention to the difference between real mobs and those who are deceived. Not every one of my people is willing to be a mob. There are many of them.
They support me, they are just dissatisfied with certain people and things..."
Syngman Rhee was extremely angry. He knew exactly who Li Kuo was talking about.
If this is the case, then don't blame yourself for falling out. He believes that the process behind this march and demonstration is not that simple. He even vaguely feels that this march and demonstration will bring about earth-shaking changes to North Korea.
.
What I have to do is to seize this opportunity firmly...
It’s time for North Korea to change its world! The king should no longer exist! It’s finally time for a new North Korean leader to appear!
