Agents of the Republic of China

"It's really not made by Takashimasuke and the others?" Chichibu Gong Yongren asked his head of the guard Daisaku Nakata in doubt in the Imperial Palace in Fujisawa Castle, Kanagawa Prefecture.

Daisaku Nakata shook his head affirmatively, "Mr. Takashima explained that this was not their handwriting. I don't think he will deceive His Highness."

The news of the turmoil in Kyushu also reached Yongren's ears. For a moment, he wondered if it was the gospel bestowed on him by God.Years of house arrest were wiped out by Takashimasuke's words, and the turmoil in Kyushu completely made Yongren's heart boil.

Chaoxianggong Jiuyan's jumping up and down made Yong Ren sure that he had indeed broken his head in that car accident. Does this crazy guy think he still has a chance to touch the highest position?Compared with the low-key of the three brothers Yongren, Xuanren, and Chongren, Jiuyan doesn't know what forbearance is at all.

Matsui Iwane and a group of veteran generals complained about what he did in the dispatched army back then. Later, in order to calm the dissatisfaction in the army, Emperor Hirohito transferred him back to the mainland. Unexpectedly, he did not learn from these He has learned lessons from his experience, and he can't wait to jump out whenever there is a turmoil. Does he think that it is possible for Yuren to let him take over the military power?

Compared with these things, Yong Ren is most concerned about a rumor that suddenly appeared recently.It was said to be a rumor, but it was a serious matter, and it spread throughout the cities and towns of Kanto in an instant. I heard that there have been multiple versions among the people, but the general content is the same.

Emperor Hirohito is quietly negotiating with the Americans. The content of the negotiations is: the continuation of the emperor system in Japan in the future and the protection of the interests of the imperial family.The emperor's negotiator is neither a soldier nor a government official, but a powerful figure in the Black Dragon Association-Kodama Yoshio.

Hearing this news, Yongren's first reaction was, what does his brother want to do?On the one hand, he called on the entire Japanese people to start the final war and defend the mainland at all costs, while on the other hand, he conducted a private deal with the Americans. Obviously, Hirohito himself was not optimistic about the battle to encircle the mainland. Is it a bargaining chip to negotiate with the Americans?In exchange for the royal family, and even his own interests, with the casualties of countless citizens.Such news is so loud in the dust, where will the face of the royal family be placed!

Yong Ren could confirm the authenticity of this news in his heart.Because even if he were to sit in that position, he would probably face the same choice.What's more, the news directly pointed out the specific contact person - Yoshio Kodama.As early as a few years ago, Yong Ren had learned that Emperor Hirohito had formed a secret team with the royal children as the core, and had been active in the occupied area. seek profit.Among them, the Black Dragon Club is also the most important link.This also proves that all those involved in this plan are the most secretive forces that Hirohito has personally mastered.

But who leaked these top secrets?

Could it be Takashimasuke?Yongren immediately thought of the Huangdao faction, but since they denied it, Yongren firmly believed in it.Yongren knew that there was no need for Takashimasuke and the others to deceive him, what's more, this incident seemed to question the majesty of Emperor Hirohito, but the royal family would definitely be affected by it, not to mention, he, Yongren, was also a member of the royal family a member ofTakashimasuke and the others will not be reckless to do these things that harm others and benefit themselves.

These things in front of him were like a cloud of fog shrouded in Yongren's heart, and the influence Yuren was affected by it did not make Yongren feel much joy.Yongren is keenly aware that behind everything, including the turmoil in Kyushu that brought him to an inexplicable surprise, there seems to be an invisible hand manipulating it. What worries him is that he still can't judge the situation. Whether it is good or bad for oneself, and if it continues to develop, it is likely to be in danger of losing control.

"Tell Takashimasuke to let him investigate the affairs of Kyushu and these rumors. I always have some bad premonitions." After sitting for a long time, Yong Ren gave orders to Daisaku Nakata.

……

Hirohito's life is also difficult. The matter in Kyushu has not been resolved, and the unfavorable situation of the war has not changed. At this time, so many rumors suddenly appeared.

Hirohito knew very well in his heart that these were not rumors, but genuine facts.Those who made these rumors are very clear about the negotiation process between themselves and the Americans, including the key figure Yoshio Kodama.He didn't even tell his most loyal eagle dog Kenji Doihara about this matter.

Japan has been coveting China's land and resources for a long time. After the Sino-Japanese War, Japan was shocked by the huge dividends brought by the war, and was deeply attracted by the rich resources and sky-high wealth of this ancient country.Successive governments and high-level military officials have deduced plans to attack China more than once, but it was not until the September [-]th Incident that Japan really took the step of attacking.

After that, Hirohito secretly summoned a group of family children who were closely related to the royal family, and began to gather and train secretly, learning Chinese culture and history crazily.At the same time, the Black Dragon Society and Yixiangzong were ordered to send a large number of scholars and monks into China through various channels. Under the guise of admiring Chinese culture, they were actually investigating China's folk wealth and various precious cultural relics.

Overall, the operation, which spanned over five years, was extremely successful.To give a simple example, we can see how successful these operatives have been in infiltrating China.

When the city of Nanjing was broken, Yazawa Shinichi also participated in the plan of the special gendarmerie.At that time, he was still one of the humble officers, but it was this operation that made him shine, and he gradually entered the core of the Special Gendarmerie's China plan.He held a detailed list in his hand at that time, including the collection of cultural relics in the Nanjing National Museum, various assets that the Nationalist government had not had time to transfer, the personal property of the leading figures in the Nanjing gang, the personal property of celebrities in Nanjing's business circles, and the personal property of Nanjing officials. As well as the private collections of all these people, and of course the lists of precious objects from the various monasteries in Nanjing.

That is to say, as long as the special gendarmerie takes this list and goes to each house one by one to raid the houses according to the map, they can gain a lot. That is the case, the special gendarmerie launched the plunder of Nanjing without bloodshed and with a strong purpose.This is just a city in Nanjing.

Through years of plundering, Hirohito's royal family treasure house has accumulated to a staggering level.Of course, he is not all to satisfy his own whispers.As the supreme leader of Japanese Shintoism and the supreme leader of all Japanese people, he is very clear about where Japan's shortcomings lie.Hirohito was also prepared for the possible defeat of the war.With these wealth, even if the Japanese Empire is defeated, within ten or 20 years, it can rise rapidly again.

After the situation became unfavorable, Hirohito thought of the Golden Lily plan.He decisively stopped the plan, ordered the special gendarmerie to immediately stop its current activities, withdraw to the mainland in batches, and ordered Yoshio Kodama to transport back to the mainland the large amount of gold that was collected from the Southeast Asian countries and concentrated in the Philippines Come.Because these gold can now come in handy.

As the core of the allies and the main opponent to face now, Hirohito has noticed the strength of the United States. It can be said that the navy did not completely fail at the military level, but more because of the powerful and terrifying industrial strength of the United States.The U.S. military is the main force in the Pacific and Asian battlefields. If you want to gain the greatest post-war benefits in a failed situation, you must deal with the Americans.For this reason, Hirohito ordered Yoshio Kodama to contact the US intelligence system.In order to protect his status and interests, Hirohito did not hesitate to use huge sums of money to impress the Americans.

In fact, Hirohito was still very cautious. He did not contact the Americans through the Japanese intelligence system, but through the outsider Kodama Yoshio. If he came forward, even if the matter was revealed, the royal family would not be involved.

But now, the news has been completely leaked out, and the secrets between Yoshio Kodama, the royal family and the emperor are revealed to the world in an instant, and Hirohito feels extremely passive.He can imagine that his prestige is facing the biggest challenge since he succeeded to the throne.

The civil and military ministers came one after another, all tactfully seeking the authenticity of this matter. From their expressions, it can be seen that they have believed most of these rumors.But Hirohito couldn't explain it. He also knew that now the mud fell into his crotch, and it was either shit or shit. At this time, the more he explained, the more guilty he seemed.

There are only two answers as to who leaked their secrets, one is Japan, and the other is the United States.As for Hirohito, only Hirohito and Yoshio Kodama were the only ones who came into contact with this secret. Every time they discussed, even the Minister of Internal Affairs and the Chief of Guards were excluded, so the possibility of leaking the secret was extremely low.Furthermore, the Americans are very likely on their side.

Thinking of the stupid behavior of the Americans, Hirohito couldn't help but itch his teeth with hatred, but there was nothing he could do. He even wondered if the Americans leaked the news on purpose, so as to cause chaos in Japan and make it easier for them to land on the Japanese island.

Various speculations filled Hirohito's mind, and he couldn't help but let out a long sigh.The loyal bodyguard deputy Michio Kinoshita appeared behind Hirohito like a ghost. "Your Majesty, the person you are looking for has arrived!"

Hirohito's eyes lit up, and he suddenly raised his head, "Are you there? I want to see him right away."

Kinoshita Michio bowed, "I have arranged him in the side hall. At this time, it is not suitable for him to appear in public."

Yu Ren hurriedly stood up, trotted all the way through the corridor and two courtyards, and came to the side hall of the palace.

There was no electric light in the room, and no candles were lit. As the door was pushed open, the sun's light came into the room, and a not tall figure could be seen standing by the window, but his whole body was covered by a black cloak. middle.

Hirohito looked back at Michio Kinoshita, Kinoshita understood, and immediately closed the door from the outside, leaving only the light coming in through the gap of the window in the room.

The figure in the black cloak stepped forward, stopped five steps away from Hirohito, and saluted respectfully.

Yuren's voice trembled a little, "Aiqing is back, I, I am in big trouble!"

Heiying lowered his head, "I have never left, this time I came here to solve your majesty's troubles!"
