Chapter 1556: The So-Called Shrine

On the afternoon of September 2010, 9, the Yasukuni Shrine in Kudanzaka, Chiyoda District, Tokyo, Japan.

靖国神社始建于1869年8月6日(日本明治2年6月29日),原名“东京招魂社”,用意是纪念明治维新期间死于内战戊辰战争中保皇倒幕派军人。

The meaning at the beginning was actually equivalent to the Shrine of Martyrs advocated by Confucian culture.It is just to appease the dead through the act of sacrifice, so as not to bring disaster to people.

In 1879 (that is, the 12th year of Meiji in Japan), the Tokyo Shrine of Souls officially changed its name to Yasukuni Shrine.

The name "Jingguo" comes from the 23rd year of Zuo Chuan Xigong's "I take the name of Jingguo", which means to make the country stable.After the Meiji Restoration, the Yasukuni Shrine is dedicated to the soldiers who died in Japan, including the Sino-Japanese War, the Russo-Japanese War and many soldiers in World War II.Plane Travel Guide 1556

As a shrine, according to regulations, it should be managed by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.However, the Yasukuni Shrine is directly managed by the military. It can be said that this is the only special case among Japanese shrines and temples.

Under normal circumstances, every country or nation has the right and freedom to commemorate the heroic spirits of warriors who died for their country.Ordinarily, the Yasukuni Shrine in Japan should of course be no exception, but the meaning of the Yasukuni Shrine was distorted later.

As we all know, World War II was recognized as a catastrophe in human history.Due to the ambitions of certain people and countries, countless families around the world have been separated, and hundreds of millions of people have lost their lives.

Of course, there will be winners and losers at the end of the war. The winner is always king in this world.No matter what is done in the war, when the victory is won it all goes away.Winners often hold justice, while losers are the opposite.

From the results of World War II, the Allies became the final victors, and of course they have the power and qualifications to deal with the losers—members of the Axis Powers.The loser will inevitably lose justice, and all actions will be infinitely magnified.

But regardless of Germany, it is an undeniable fact that many of Japan's war practices have lost their humanity.

Therefore, the trial initiated by the victorious country after the war also possessed jurisprudential justice and logical attributes.Many soldiers in Japan have been tried, and they are defined as war criminals of all levels such as A, B, and C.

These people should not be worshiped by the Yasukuni Shrine, no matter according to the common sense of human civilization or the law of the jungle.At least before 1978, Japan did not dare to blatantly challenge the post-war situation.

With the end of World War II, Japan, the loser, was transformed into a democratic country by the United States, the winner.Of course, as a symbol of Japan's national Shinto—the Yasukuni Shrine, which was always managed by the military alone before World War II, was no exception and was changed to a religious legal person.

At that time, the Yasukuni Shrine stored nearly 250 million spiritual tablets of war dead, of which 210 million died in World War II, including about 2000 Class B and Class C war criminals.Since the level of criminals is not very high, the victorious country turned a blind eye.

As a result, the Yasukuni Shrine secretly enshrined 1978 notorious Class-A war criminals in 14, including top names such as Hideki Tojo and Koki Hirota who were convicted and executed by the Allied Far East Military Tribunal.

The Japanese "government" pays homage to these war criminals publicly every year. Of course, it will arouse strong opposition from the countries and peoples who were invaded by these war criminals during World War II.This is no longer a question of offering sacrifices to the dead, but a question of the Japanese "government" blatantly provoking the outcome of World War II.

There is even a hidden sign of a change in the political orientation of the Japanese "government", from peaceful neutrality to right-wing militarism again-this will of course cause anxiety and vigilance in neighboring countries.

When the meaning of the existence of the Yasukuni Shrine itself changes, and when the Yasukuni Shrine has become a symbol of the revival of Japanese militarism and a symbol of evil imperialism, the voices of East Asian countries to ban the Yasukuni Shrine will naturally increase.

This is not about whether the Yasukuni Shrine has been banned, but I hope that the Japanese "government" can face up to history and admit the crimes of the past.Leaving aside economic compensation, at the very least, we must ensure that the wrong course of the year will not be repeated in the future.

As Japan's largest lord - the US "government" - the role played in it makes people doubt their purpose, nothing more than trying to ensure regional "turbulence", but this kind of "turmoil" must be limited to a certain extent.

Only when the political situation in the region remains turbulent can the United States, as an external force, have an excuse to intervene to ensure its own influence.

But this kind of turmoil must not exceed the control of the Americans, otherwise it will definitely affect the interests of the United States itself in the end.Therefore, the behavior of the Japanese "government" is very good at walking on the edge of the limit, trying not to challenge the bottom line of the United States.

After World War II, Japan almost became a puppet state of the United States, and for a long time it served as a kite or doll held by the Americans.Don't look at the fact that the Americans don't seem to care about Japan's military development and provocations in Asia, because the United States is confident enough to control Japan so that it will not become a threat to the United States.Plane Travel Guide 1556

On the surface, Japan is very independent, but Japan is a country castrated by the United States.

When the strong economic development of Japan in the 80s and [-]s made Americans feel threatened, a simple "Plaza Accord" completely destroyed the Japanese economic miracle-it has not recovered until today.

No matter how Japan jumps in Asia, it will never be able to jump out of the palm of the Americans like a monkey in the hands of Buddha.Under the control of the Americans, Japan can only serve as an Asian bridgehead to maintain the strategic interests of the United States.

However, Japan is a very typical island country. Regardless of its national strategy and national "character", it has obvious characteristics of an island country - it is determined to submit to the strong, but it will jump out when it thinks it is sure. superior.

The Americans see clearly the connotation in the Japanese bones, and believe that they can always hold the advantage over Japan.That's why they loosened Japan's chains and let Japan bite under the control of the Americans.

The war criminals enshrined in the Yasukuni Shrine also include Yamamoto 56, but the guy who attacked Pearl Harbor is not hated by the Americans.Although he despises his sneak attack, the United States does not have the pain of Asians.

If the Japanese army led by Yamamoto 56 had carried out massacres in the United States, the Americans would never tolerate the Japanese enshrining them in the Yasukuni Shrine anyway.From this point of view, Americans simply do not understand the kind of hatred that Asian countries feel for the behavior of the Yasukuni Shrine from the bottom of their souls.

The so-called: He's enemy, my heroic spirit!

These 8 words are the truth in the hearts of Japanese right-wing politicians, and they are also the only yy point left in Japan's heart in today's abnormal country.Especially after the dream of an economically powerful country has gone bankrupt, the poor self-esteem left in Japan's heart has long since been depleted.

Among the memorial tablets preserved in the Yasukuni Shrine, 7751 people came from the Boshin War in China, 6971 people came from the Southwest War in China, 88429 people died in the Russo-Japanese War, and 4850 people died in World War I.

The rest of the undead include 13619 people who died in the Sino-Japanese War, 1130 people who died in the resistance of occupying Baodao, 1256 people who died in the Boxer Incident, 185 people who died in the May 17176rd Massacre, 2325165 people who died in the September [-]th Incident, and [-] people who died in the Anti-Japanese War and the Pacific War. people.

For the common people of China, such undead, no one dies innocently, and no soul should be enshrined!

Before Tang Shaozhe really paid attention to the detailed information of the Yasukuni Shrine, he just believed in the state propaganda that there were 14 Class A war criminals in World War II in this shrine, that's all.

Unexpectedly, after carefully checking the corresponding information, I suddenly felt a flame burning in my heart. It can be said that more than 90% of the objects enshrined in this Yasukuni Shrine owed a lot of blood debts to the Republic.

Except for the 14722 people killed in the Japanese Civil War, the rest, including those killed in the Russo-Japanese War and World War I, still died on Chinese soil.The Russo-Japanese War broke out in the northeast of the country, and Japan's main battle in World War I was also in the German-occupied land in Greenport.

As for the rest of the dead, almost everyone died in the war of aggression against China.To Tang Shaozhe, each of these guys deserved to die and should be thrown into hell to be refined!

Although Zhang Rui hoped that Tang Shaozhe could remain calm, at least he should not act according to the plan of the mysterious behind-the-scenes manipulator who has hidden in North America and has refused to show his face so far.But after reading the materials, Tang Shaozhe didn't care whether others would benefit from the outbreak of war in East Asia. Now he just wanted to destroy this shrine, which was actually a bloody place.

As for whether this will lead to further tension in East Asia, or even a war-"I care so much? If a war breaks out, then fight it, whether it is the United States or Japan, let me teach them a good lesson!" Tang Shaozhe Say so.

This made Zhang Rui just want to hug his head, close his eyes and look up to the sky and sigh: "I said so much about feelings before, all my words are in vain? Boss, can you calm down? The so-called big things don't care about small things. Sometimes politics Patience is required!"

Just when Zhang Rui wanted to talk about the examples of King Goujian of Yue and King Han Xin of Qi to increase his persuasiveness, Tang Shaozhe said directly: "There is no way to bear the humiliation. I don't believe that anyone who has absolute strength will be afraid Are wolf queens afraid of tigers?"

"...Okay, you are the boss, what do you want to do?" Zhang Rui was very speechless.

Tang Shaozhe glared: "Then there's no need to ask? Of course, this so-called shrine must be destroyed first!" Plane Travel Guide 1556

"Then what if this led to a war in East Asia and satisfied the intentions of the mysterious "manipulator" hidden behind the scenes in North America? The enemy is in the dark and we are in the light. This can only be detrimental to us. Even now we don't know about this war. If a war breaks out, what benefits will it bring to the other party—it will definitely not be a disadvantage! Your so-called absolute strength is not counted as the enemy hidden behind it at all!"

"Ah...but I really can't take it anymore, look at these materials, who can stand it?"

"Well, I suggest that even if you want to destroy that shrine, Boss, at least don't expose your involvement with China!"

"Hmm... Then let me think about it!" Tang Shaozhe, who finally came up with the answer, nodded and said, "Don't worry, I'll take care of myself. Before I'm sure, I won't expose myself."

So on the afternoon of September 9, a very strange scene appeared over the Yasukuni Shrine...
