The airdropping of rice by Lin Yuan's troops was first known to the staff headed by Mizuki Nagata. Mizuki Nagata immediately found Nogi Nori and said to Nogi Nori: "General, Lin Yuan's troops airdropped a large amount of rice to Sasebo City and the surrounding suburbs. .”

Nogi Xidian frowned, and said angrily: "The aircraft of Lin Yuan's army is coming? Why doesn't our radar station know?"

Mizuki Nagata replied: "Report to the general, the radar station has found the aircraft, but Lin Yuan's aircraft flew away before they notified the nearby anti-aircraft artillery unit."

Nogi Nozomi nodded and said, "So that's the case, what about the rice dropped from the air?"

Mizuki Nagata said: "We haven't acted yet, we are worried that there are tricks by Lin Yuan, so we are waiting for the decision of Your Excellency the General."

Naimu Xidian said: "This must be Lin Yuan's trick to keep our relationship with the people. You send someone to post a notice and ask the people to hand over the rice."

Mizuki Nagata said: "General, it's not good to do this. When we expropriated rice a few days ago, we had already had a lot of trouble with the people."

Nogi Xidian said angrily: "Can't you use your brain? Just say that the rice was poisoned by Lin Yuan's troops and cannot be eaten! We collected the rice for destruction!"

Mizuki Nagata suddenly realized, and said: "I understand, General, I will send someone to the Metropolitan Police Department right away, and ask them to send someone to do this."

Nogi Xidian asked: "Can't you let the people from the First Division do it? If you hand this matter over to the Metropolitan Police Department, those idiots will definitely screw things up again."

Mizuki Nagata said: "General, I think the army should focus on the outside world, and it would be better for the Metropolitan Police Department to come forward internally."

Nogi Xidian said angrily: "Confused! Collecting food under the pretext that rice is poisonous is a matter of winning people's hearts. How can you give such a good thing to the Metropolitan Police Department?"

Mizuki Nagata nodded again and again, and said: "The general still thinks far-reaching, and I will let the First Division handle this matter." So Mizuki Nagata came to the First Division, personally led an infantry brigade, and took to the streets , Collecting food from door to door, knocking on the door of the residents and saying: "Hurry up and hand over the food dropped by Lin Yuan's troops. The rice is poisonous, and some people have eaten it to death!"

The civilians who grabbed the rice had already cooked and ate the rice, and found nothing unusual, so they told the Japanese soldiers one after another: "Our family did not get the rice dropped by Lin Yuan."

So the Japanese soldiers collected for a long time, but did not collect a grain of rice. During this time, another batch of transport planes flew to Sasebo and dropped rice. There were no important military facilities on the route of the transport plane this time, so the ground There were no anti-aircraft guns on board, and although the Japanese radar detected them this time, they did not hurt them at all.

With the help of parachutes, those boxes of rice slowly fell on the street. The impatient people ignored the Japanese soldiers and rushed to grab the rice. The Japanese soldiers were helpless for a while, after all, this is not North Korea, if it is in North Korea, they can shoot without restraint, but this is Japan, so they can't shoot at the Japanese.

So the Japanese officer immediately reported to Mizuki Nagata: "The people are lying. They must have got the rice, but they are unwilling to hand it over."

Mizuki Nagata knew that if this matter was not handled properly, the relationship between the military and the people would be seriously damaged, so he did not dare to advocate on his own, but called Nogi Nozomi and said, "General, the people are not willing to hand over the rice at all! What should we do?" manage?"

Nogi Xidian thought in his heart: "I don't know how much rice Lin Yuan's troops have dropped by air. If there is more, we will grab them. If there is less, we can leave it alone."

So Nogi Xidian asked, "How much rice did Lin Yuan's troops drop?"

Mizuki Nagata said helplessly: "We don't know how many there are, but when they landed just now, the sky was full of parachutes, so there should be quite a few."

Nogi Nozomi said: "Well, order the troops to grab these rice!" Mizuki Nagata immediately conveyed it after receiving the order, and the Japanese soldiers rushed to the people's homes and forcibly robbed the food. These Japanese soldiers retreated from North Korea. It was very hasty, I didn’t bring much food in the first place, and the food from other regions has not been transported these days, so they are all starving. Seeing the white rice in their throats, they can’t wait to stretch out a hand and grab them all. mouth.

The Japanese soldiers began to rob, and Lin Yuan’s agents passed the news to Lin Yuan. After Lin Yuan saw the telegram, he immediately instructed the agents in Sasebo: Immediately incite the dissatisfaction of the people, provoke the workers to strike, and the students to strike. Sometimes they used rogues to smash up grain stores in Japan, and then created a larger-scale turmoil.

Lin Yuan’s approach was inspired by the “Rice Riot” in Japanese history. In 1918, a nationwide riot broke out in Japan. Sweeping across the country, workers went on strike, students went on strike, and bloody conflicts broke out in many places.

The agents under Lin Yuan started to act immediately after receiving Lin Yuan's order. Lin Yuan's slogan of "Eliminate Hunger and Poverty" is still very popular among young students, not only students, but also many who have worked hard for many years. The workers also believed in Lin Yuan more, so under the instigation of Lin Yuan's army agents, strikes and class strikes started one after another.

After the strikes and school strikes were launched, some hooligans and rogues began to attack the rice stores. The Japanese army deposited all the grain collected in the rice stores, but the Japanese army did not send troops to defend these rice stores, so the rogues and rogues succeeded one after another. When the door of the rice store was opened, they also rushed in and started to rob. The riot spread throughout the Kyushu area within a day.

Nogi Noki was unable to deal with such a big matter, so he could only report the situation to Emperor Meiji, who immediately ordered after hearing the news: "This must be a dangerous 'Lin Yuan thinker' who is playing tricks, and immediately dispatch troops , hunt down 'Lin Yuan Ideologists' in major cities, and punish them severely!"

Nogi Xidian then carried out this order, and the Japanese army entered the city one after another, but who knows who the "Lin Yuan thinkers" are?Many Japanese soldiers didn't even know what "Lin Yuan Thought" was, so they randomly arrested people in the city. The way to identify North Koreans is also very simple: let everyone say the word "ten yuan and fifty cents", and the person who pronounces it bluntly is a North Korean.

In this way, the major cities in the Kyushu region of Japan fell into chaos!
