"I lost." This was Kenji Doihara's first words after meeting Lin Xiaotang. He never expected that the "boss" Naoe Seigo mentioned was actually Lin Xiaotang, whom he had always controlled.

Kenji Doihara suddenly felt like he was reversing time and space. From the young man in front of him, he felt that there seemed to be some shadow of himself. More than ten years ago, he, Seishiro Itagaki and Kanji Ishihara together put the fate of the empire on the line. As a result, Northeast China succeeded in the First World War and captured a vast territory for the empire. But today, the same unknown young man pushed the empire to the brink of collapse and destruction without even realizing it. .

"Are you the military commander, or Yan'an?" Kenji Doihara walked out from the surroundings of several close officers and walked directly to the opposite side of Lin Xiaotang.

This is a side hall near Changhe Hall. The room is full of damp and musty smell. It seems that no one has been here for a long time.

Naoe Seigo escorted Doihara Kenji and his henchmen here, and hurriedly went to meet with Iinuma Sadakichi and Kojima Yoshimitsu. What they were going to do next, Doihara Kenji could vaguely guess. Some, he just wants to work harder and leave a bloodline for the Japanese royal family.

There were not many people in the side hall. Lin Xiaotang was wearing a major uniform of the Japanese Army, and next to him were more than a dozen soldiers with live ammunition. His face was cold, and he looked at Doihara Kenji and others with his eyes, as if he was seeing a long-lost prey. Projecting murderous intent without concealment.

Lin Xiaotang smiled slightly, and the smile contained many things that Kenji Doihara couldn't see clearly, "Actually, to be honest, you don't need to ask about this, because I have no intention of negotiating with you, in order to avoid the possibility of the royal family evading war crimes after the war. There is no doubt that Hirohito and his brothers will be punished. Of course, this also includes those soldiers and politicians who started wars or whose hands were stained with the blood of our people, such as Itagaki Seishiro, Okamura Neji and Matsui. Ishigen and others."

At this time, Doihara Kenji had no doubt that Lin Xiaotang could do this. He was able to find two people, Iinuma Sadaikichi and Kojima Yoshimitsu, from the historical archives, which proved that he already had a complete plan to deal with the empire. Doihara Hara Kenji completely believed what Takashimasuke said before he died. It was obvious that Takashimasuke was just a stepping stone in Lin Xiaotang's plan.

Lin Xiaotang nodded towards Kenji Doihara, "I admire you very much. You may not know that I almost fell into your trap. I originally planned to trick Iinuma Sadakichi and Kojima Yoshimitsu in order to prepare for the consequences afterwards. Fortunately, I didn’t let them take action in advance to eliminate Takashimasuke and the Imperial Way faction, so I finally got a big fish like you.”

The muscles on Kenji Doihara's face twitched, and he gritted his teeth and said: "These two idiots have become China's pawns without knowing it. They will be nailed to the pillar of shame of the empire forever."

Lin Xiaotang shook his head, "You are wrong. The two of them will be the heroes in Japan's new history. Because of them, Japan's history will embark on a new path. Where will it go specifically? Will it take our path?" What to expect...".

Lin Xiaotang touched his chin and smiled self-deprecatingly, "I'm not sure about this either. The reason, you should know very well, is that China is too weak now and does not have the capital to compete with the United States and Russia. Therefore, in order to change this situation , Japan must become even weaker."

Facing a dying man, Lin Xiaotang really had no interest in talking nonsense with him anymore. He carefully looked at the senior officers behind Kenji Doihara and asked: "Which one is His Excellency Takao Suzuki? "

Kenji Doihara was stunned. A skinny old man wearing a retired military officer's uniform in the crowd behind him hesitated and walked out, "I am Takao Suzuki."

Lin Xiaotang snapped his fingers, and Huoyan came up from behind, took out a piece of paper from the pocket of his military uniform, and read: "Takao Suzuki, a graduate of the Advanced Department of the Japanese Army Artillery School, the younger brother of Prime Minister Kantaro Suzuki, and a Japanese The famous general in the Russo-Japanese War and the commander of the 8th Division, Naofumi Naofumi's son-in-law, served as the chief minister of the Yasukuni Shrine after retirement."

Lin Xiaotang began to pace slowly, as if talking to himself, "Since Takao Suzuki became the palace minister, he has really used two brushes to turn a cold stove into a prosperous one. He even asked for the death of generals of the Japanese invaders to be transferred to China. All the memorial tablets of officers and soldiers have been moved into the Yasukuni Shrine. Your vision is really far-sighted. Maybe a few years later, Japanese politics and people will regard the Yasukuni Shrine as a god-like existence. This is also a way for you to preserve the spirit of Bushido. A method, or a strategy to preserve militarism and unite people’s hearts, right?”

Suzuki Takao was very surprised. He did not expect that the enemy intelligence leader who had the upper hand in front of him would notice his every move and see through his intentions at a glance. The Sino-Japanese War has been going on so far, and only the Japanese side has been killed. With an army of about 2.5 million, and by enshrining all the memorial tablets of these fallen soldiers in the Yasukuni Shrine, we can firmly control the consciousness of all military families, and the Yasukuni Shrine can become a powerful influence on this part of the people. The most powerful tool, it can even be said that this is an important prop for Japan to maintain its offensive posture in the future.

Lin Xiaotang nodded. Suzuki Takao wanted to say something else, but Huoyan would not give him another chance.

With a "puff" sound, a samurai sword stabbed Takao Suzuki in front of him. Suzuki Takao was suddenly attacked and subconsciously held the exposed blade with both hands. He narrowed his eyes and the entire blade rotated instantly. At 360 degrees, Suzuki Takao's internal organs were smashed to pieces, and blood spattered onto Kenji Doihara's body, but he did not move.

Suzuki Takao was not dead for a while, and looked at Lin Xiaotang with a ferocious and painful face. Lin Xiaotang said softly: "Don't worry, the Yasukuni Shrine you rebuilt will be destroyed together with you. As an opponent, I admire your foresight. Also as an opponent, I will never let your idea come true."

As Takao Suzuki took his last breath with difficulty, Kenji Doihara knew that it was his turn soon, but there were some things that he couldn't figure out and he felt like he was dying in peace, "You even know so much about the Yasukuni Shrine, I I think you must have a lot of plans."

Lin Xiaotang thought about it seriously, "Oh, by the way, the Golden Lily Plan was implemented well. I really admire the Japanese people's persistence. However, those things do not belong to you, and they cannot be used in post-war Japan." was rebuilt."

Kenji Doihara took a mouthful of fresh blood, and blood spurted out. Lin Xiaotang even knew the Golden Lily plan clearly. The entire Japanese empire was like a girl who had been stripped naked. Now she could only accept his attack without the ability to resist. Devastated.

"It is impossible for Kodama Yoshio to return to Japan. The ships coming to Japan from the Philippines sank off the coast of Japan. Only I know the specific location of the sinking. I believe that Kodama Yoshio has now become food for fish and shrimps." Yes, as for the gold, I will let it see the light of day when necessary."

Kenji Doihara slowly knelt down on the ground, his face pale, but Lin Xiaotang's next words made him feel dizzy, "As well as the wealth in Hirohito's treasure house, I guess no one will notice it at this time. I think, It’s time to return the property to its original owner, and of course, Hirohito and the royal family will have to pay some interest.”

After saying these words, Lin Xiaotang turned around and left. He really had nothing to say to Doihara Kenji. Huoyan would help him solve the next thing. A few days later, people would find the bodies of Doihara Kenji and others. As for What kind of description they will leave in history is not important now.

Emperor Hirohito and the royal family no longer need to worry about Lin Xiaotang. After this incident, the strength of the royal family will be severely damaged, and the future of Japanese politics will have nothing to do with them. Emerging military leaders such as Iinuma Sadayoshi and Kojima Yoshimitsu and political groups will step onto the political stage, and Naoe Seigo will be subtle around them, dividing and disintegrating. This is also the meaning of his existence. Kyushu, Honshu, Hokkaido, and Kanto are all in chaos. The Russians have landed. Hokkaido, the Americans have decided not to give up Japan's fat piece of meat, and I believe their advance will be greatly accelerated.

The new Japanese government will recruit people from all walks of life, and the top priority is to end the war immediately in exchange for Japan's survival. Lin Xiaotang is not a god, and it is impossible to completely wipe out Japan. All he can do is to help it maintain a chaotic state. situation.

And this is obviously much simpler.

While Lin Xiaotang smoked a cigarette outside the side hall door, raging fires were already burning in Changwaden, Dongyuan, Kitanomaru and other places. With Iinuma Sadayoshi and Kojima Yoshimitsu and others' deep-seated hatred for the imperial family, This disaster for the royal family is inevitable. From the perspective of cause and effect, this may not be a cycle.

The sky had brightened up, and the faint roar of airplanes could be heard in the air. It seemed that the Allied bombing was about to begin again. Huoyan and the others walked out of the side hall, with a layer of blood droplets covering the sharp tip of the knife.

Lin Xiaotang threw away the cigarette butt and asked, "How did that matter go?"

"There is only one Sugamo prison near Tokyo that holds political prisoners. Our people have taken advantage of the chaos and cooperated with Takeda Takeo to rescue Nakanishi Isao and others and escorted them to Hokkaido."

Lin Xiaotang nodded with satisfaction. Once these Japanese progressives arrived in Hokkaido, with the support of the Russian army, they would definitely do something that would surprise the Americans. Thinking of this, Lin Xiaotang's face was filled with a gloating smile.

"By the way, it may be useful to inform Naoe Seigo and take advantage of the chaos to arrange for reliable people to serve in Sugamo Prison as soon as possible."
