Chapter 357: Chaos
Seeing that the target had fallen, Ye Kai nodded with satisfaction, and then he and Luo Han disassembled the sniper rifle into parts as quickly as possible, put it into a small suitcase disguised as a briefcase, sorted out the clothes on their bodies, went down to the building like two little white-collar workers, and slipped into the middle of a group of same little white-collar workers, squatting in the corner and trembling.
At this time, the outside was completely disrupted, and not only the Parliament building, but also the Prime Minister's Office in the northwest, the official residences of the Speakers of the House of Representatives and the House of Representatives, and the headquarters of the Liberal Party had been attacked by the militants of the Social Workers' Party.
The militants who rushed into these places did not have the time to distinguish who deserved to die and who did not deserve to die, they opened fire when they saw people, and they could kill whoever they saw, anyway, in their minds they were already in the heart of the reactionary government, and everyone here was carrying original sin, either reactionaries or traitors, just let go and kill, and there was no need to think about all that mess.
The result was a bloody slaughter of the political heart of the country, with not only 60 per cent of the members of the House of Representatives killed at their guns, but even the President of the Senate, who was not in the Capitol at the time, was shot dead in his residence, and the Liberal Party headquarters was almost completely killed, because of the suddenness of the incident, and the lack of decent defense itself, the resistance in these places was hardly worth mentioning, and the losses of the Social Workers were insignificant.
However, in Kasumigaseki, they met with real resistance.
In this most important district of Tokyo, there are not only police agencies, but most importantly, the embassy of the United States, and the Social Workers Party attacking this area was resolutely blocked by a large number of police and embassy guards, and as time went on, the United States garrison also began to join the battle. Although all are logisticians. But after all, a real army. Coupled with the fact that the headquarters support staff of the Self-Defense Forces also joined the battlefield, the Social Workers Party immediately began to be unable to resist.
"General, the Social Workers are starting to rout."
An officer saluted Ridgway.
The latter looked at Johnson, what does that mean, kill them all?
Johnson shrugged and motioned for him to be casual.
"You can't stay alive."
Then he added.
Most of these SWD militants didn't know the inside story, they were packed in merchant ships, sealed like sardines, and they were the most fanatical believers. Including a series of transportation after that, Jin Yiwei was also in charge, and they thought that their supporters were helping!
But even this can't leave a mouth alive.
As for the rest, if they can run, they will be lucky, and if they can't run, they will be unlucky, and for those who have no value, there is no need to waste brain cells for them.
At this moment, another officer hurriedly walked up to Li Qiwei and said, "General, there is a call from the Imperial Palace, and His Majesty the Emperor has been assassinated by a sniper. ”
"Are you dead?"
Li Qiwei hurriedly asked, this matter does not need to be guessed. It must have been done by Jinyiwei, although it wasn't planned. However, since Jinyiwei has been involved, it is not surprising that there is a little accident, these guys who dare to throw du gas bombs at the Imperial Palace of the Wa Kingdom, it would be strange to say that they did not dare to shoot black guns at Hirohito!
In fact, over the years, because of the fear of the assassination of Jinyiwei, Hirohito basically did not dare to appear in public.
"No, the bullet hit the emperor's right chest and pierced the lung, and he is already being rescued, but it is estimated that there is no life-threatening situation, at most there will be some sequelae or something."
The officer said.
"If he is not dead, he is not dead, and it can be regarded as a lesson for him, let him know that it is our gift that he was not sent to the judgment seat, and be his emperor honestly, don't always think about getting involved in outside affairs, that is not the place for him to stretch out his hand."
Johnson said with a sneer.
The Tokyo incident did not last long, from the explosion of the Capitol to the time when the US military regained control of the situation, it took more than an hour in total, but the losses caused to the Japanese country in just over an hour can be described as miserable. Of the more than 400 members of the House of Representatives, 242 were either killed or killed, not counting the injuries, Prime Minister Ichiro Hatoyama was shot in the head and died on the way to the palace, the presidents of the House of Representatives and the House of Councillors were all killed, and more than 100 people died in the headquarters of the Liberal Party, but the Liberal Party was actually finished, because the main figures in the party were in the House of Representatives!
More than 500 people were killed in various government institutions, including the Prime Minister's Office, more than 200 innocent civilians were killed in the disaster, and three foreigners were killed.
As for the militants of the Social Workers' Party who participated in the terrorist attack, more than 400 people were killed in the ensuing battle with the US troops, others fled and were being pursued, and in the course of the battle with them, more than 200 US officers and soldiers were killed and wounded, as well as more than 300 Japanese police officers and support personnel of the Self-Defense Forces were killed and wounded.
Of course, the most terrifying thing is that His Majesty the Emperor also received a bullet, although it is not life-threatening, but he has also officially canonized His Royal Highness Akihito as the crown prince, and it is clear that this injury is not as optimistic as it is made public. The impact of this incident in the Wa Kingdom was extremely bad, although a human manifesto has been issued, and a national exhibition has been carried out, but among the ordinary people, the emperor's godhead still exists, this time it is gone, just imagine that the emperor who was almost killed by a bullet is still a god, to put it bluntly, he is just an ordinary person with a crown.
However, this is not the most important thing, the most important question now is, what should be done about the political situation of the Japanese state? The prime minister is gone, more than half of the cabinet members are dead, more than half of the ruling party members are dead, and the remaining members of the House of Representatives can't even make up half of the members, and in fact, there are still 50 Liberal House members who have survived, and they occupy less than a quarter of the seats in the House of Representatives, which is still a fart ruling party.
What's more, the House of Representatives, which is less than half of the number of people, has no power to make any decisions, after all, these members are all different constituencies and represent the interests of different places, and now there is more than half of the representatives, that is, more than half of the representatives of the constituencies, so what is the significance of the decision, the House of Representatives must be immediately reconstituted by emergency by-election members from each constituency, but before that, the national leaders cannot be vacant, it could have been replaced by the speaker, but how can it be replaced if the speakers of the House of Representatives and Senate are all dead.
In short, the whole thing is a mess.
However, after the ambassador of the United States and the commander of the garrison, General Li Qiwei, visited His Majesty the Emperor in the palace together, His Majesty the Emperor who had just awakened soon issued an imperial order, and directly appointed Yoshida Shigeru's protégé in the form of a great order, and the former San Francisco Peace Council plenipotentiary, Yoshida Shigeru's Minister of International Trade and Industry in the cabinet, and the most faithful executor of the Dodge line at the beginning, temporarily acted as prime minister until the House of Representatives completed the by-election and elected a new prime minister.
Ikeda is also a Liberal Party, after all, the Liberal Party is still in power at this time, and it makes perfect sense for him to act as prime minister.
In this way, the Japanese government reluctantly resumed its operations.
The first task facing the resumption of the operation of the Japanese government is still the list, but this list Ikeda Yuto did not dare to sign and agree, although he was named by the United States, but after all, he is only an agent, who dares to agree to this list, this life will be nailed to the pillar of shame forever, can be delayed for a day, until the new prime minister comes out, he will be completely relieved.
What's more, this kind of thing must also be approved by the House of Representatives, and the House of Representatives, which does not even have half of the members, certainly has no right to approve anything, and in short, this matter still has to be delayed until the House of Representatives by-elections are completed.
But he can drag it, but the people of the United States can't drag it.
The Soviet fleet has entered the Mediterranean, the four aircraft carriers are advancing together, the Britons shouted fiercely, in fact, except for the Eagle aircraft carrier from afar, they have not made any substantive moves, at this time the huge four-aircraft carrier formation is fluttering the sickle and hammer flag, riding the wind and waves in the Mediterranean, North Africa is cheering the anti-imperialist and anti-feudal righteous forces, and even the Egyptian government can't wait to depose their little puppet king and officially proclaim the establishment of a republic.
Next, the Soviet fleet will definitely go to the Suez Canal, escorted by three aircraft carriers, the Georgia will definitely pass through this canal smoothly, and then enter the Indian Ocean, the Tianzhu people are ready to provide them with supplies, although the people of the United States are trying to win over, but Nehru, who has learned wisely, this time still chooses to move closer to Stalin.
In this way, the next stop will be to Yang Feng's territory, but the Kunlun aircraft carrier is still in the dock!
Therefore, even if Hatoyama Ichiro is solved, the struggle between the people of the United States and the Wa Kingdom continues.
The Tokyo incident shocked the world, and countries such as the United States, Britain, and Gaul issued statements condemning this terrorist attack, and the Soviet Union refused to comment on it, while the Ming Empire government, as always, gloated over it. In the words of the spokesman of the Ming Dynasty, he was deeply worried about the security situation in the Japanese state, and claimed that if the Japanese government asked the imperial government for help, the imperial government was willing to send internal affairs troops to help maintain order.
In addition, it was announced that the militants who killed Nobusuke Kishi, Shigemitsu Aoi and other criminals on the anti-party list would be rewarded in accordance with the previous regulations.
They can go to the Imperial Supreme Court of the Ming Empire to receive the bounty.
Because the court of the Ming Empire has already announced that all citizens of the empire have the responsibility to execute the judgment for the country, even if he is a militant member of the Social Labor Party, he is also a citizen of the Ming Empire, although he is only a citizen of the country, but there is no difference in this point, although they executed the judgment for the empire in a criminal activity, but there are still bonuses that should be enjoyed.
Including those who injured Hirohito, although they did not kill Hirohito, this kind of behavior still deserves to be rewarded.
In short, they can go to any court in the empire to provide conclusive evidence, and then receive their bonus, as for their criminal acts, the criminal case belonging to the subject country, the imperial judicial organs have no obligation to act on behalf of the government of the subject country.
