Volume 3 The Stormy Waves of the East China Sea Chapter 99 Dilemma

、、

When the country made the decision to evacuate overseas Chinese as quickly as possible and used the strength of the whole country to rescue the T3TT compatriots, the United States on the other side of the ocean was slow to react and did not "say anything"

When Ozawa threw out the "earth-shattering news", Roddick was meeting with the giants of the American financial and corporate circles

Echoing the president's views, these giants, who hold the lifeblood of the U.S. economy, believe that a global financial crisis is inevitable and that global economic crises will ensue one after another

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the financial and corporate giants made demands on the president

The demands of the financial giants are simple: to liberalize government regulation, implement the principles of free market management, and provide more room for the financial community to operate, the demands of the financial giants are also simple: to protect the US domestic market, increase policy preferences and government support, and improve the international competitiveness of US goods

In Roddick's view, the requirements of the financial community are nothing more than the implementation of trade protectionism, increase government financial subsidies, and increase export tax rebates

Either policy, it will eventually make the coming global financial crisis unmanageable

At first, Roddick wanted to bargain

What happened next left him with no choice

Hearing that the Japanese Prime Minister announced the dissolution of the Diet and the early general election, Roddick wasted no more time and accepted the "price code" offered by the financial and corporate giants "without reservation"

Immediately after the banquet, Roddick convened an emergency cabinet meeting

Like Ji Youguo, the first decision Roddick made at the meeting was to cancel flights to Japan in various ways and means, and to advise passengers who were going to Japan to cancel their trips, and then he asked Secretary of State Lynch to immediately contact the U.S. Embassy and Consulates in Japan to provide help to Americans in Japan who needed help, and finally Roddick ordered Sullivan to issue an order to the U.S. forces in Japan not to leave the camp without authorization

Roddick was not so decisive on whether to withdraw from the land of the Americans in Japan

The riots began with the Chinese and not the Americans, and then turned into riots, with both the Japanese and the Americans threatened

It is much less difficult for the United States to evacuate its nationals than with China

The United States has deployed nearly 10,000 military personnel in Japan, and there are 1,500 Marines in the Yokosuka Military Port, the closest place to Tokyo

What made Roddick hesitate was whether the United States would intervene in Japan's internal affairs and whether it would be effective

The civil riots in Japan are completely different from military coups, and the first to attack is not the military, but the poor performance of the civilian self-defense forces, which are extremely dissatisfied with the government, in the Sino-Japanese East China Sea conflict, which has caused a rapid rise in nationalist sentiment in Japan, and both military and civilian people hate not only the incompetent government, China that has humiliated Japan, but also the United States, which is an ally of Japan but has never done anything

If the United States intervenes in Japan's internal affairs at this time, will Japanese civilians see the United States as an enemy or a friend?

Japan at this time was no longer the Japan it was at the end of World War II

In those years, the United States relied on its strong military strength and indisputable victory to make Japan bow down to its subordinates, and the US military stationed in Japan became Japan's "emperor," and the whole of Japan groaned and trembled under the iron hooves of the US military

When Roddick visited Japan at the beginning of the year, he was thrown rotten eggs and tomatoes by the Japanese people

If American GIs were to take to the streets of Japan, they would not encounter rotten eggs and tomatoes

The lack of information annoyed Roddick, and neither the CIA nor the NSA were able to find out the situation in Japan in the first place

It was not until the early morning of the 29th EST, that is, after the murder of Hatoyama Ryjiro, that the CIA received accurate information

The result was not only unexpected, but also the murder of Fukuda Tamon and Hatoyama Ryjiro, whom Roddick least wanted to see, uprooted the two major political families, and the one who held power in Japan was Heiji Kano, a right-wing party coalition

The CIA did not disappoint the president again

Within two hours, several pieces of information were sent to the White House one after another

The results are worse than the other, and it is simply miserable

Heiji Kano not only eradicated the Hatoyama family and destroyed the Democratic Party of Japan, but also took control of the Tokyo garrison and controlled the Ministry of Defense, Heiji Shikano aimed the spearhead at the Liberal Democratic Party and used the riots to eradicate all the important members of the Liberal Democratic Party one by one

I learned that the Minister of Home Affairs of the Cabinet and members of the Democratic Party of Parliament are numerous

Roddick had to sigh

Heiji Kano was not only an ambitious politician, but also a ruthless politician, and the information provided by the CIA confirmed that the riots in Japan were secretly planned by far-right groups controlled by the coalition of right-wing political parties, and through popular riots, they eradicated political enemies and eliminated other political parties with lightning speed

It only takes one night for the coalition of right-wing parties to become the only party in Japan

In just a few hours, Heiji Kano will become the "regent" of Japan and hold the power of Japan

Perhaps long before the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese conflict, Heiji Kano had planned everything, waiting for Hatoyama Ryojiro, who did not know the height of the sky, to trigger a military crisis

Is there a way to change Japan?

When Roddick was a little at a loss, Sullivan proposed a way to "correct" Japan by "decapitation".

Had it not been for Lynch's staunch opposition, Roddick would have almost taken the advice of the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff

After calming down, Roddick had to admit that Lynch "saved" the United States

Heiji Kano is only a representative figure of the Japanese right-wing forces, and it is not he who plays a decisive role, but the "officer corps" behind him

In troubled times, the voice of military personnel far exceeds that of politicians

Without the support of the army, Heiji Kano was nothing

The ratio of low-level officers to non-commissioned officers in the Japanese Self-Defense Forces is second to none among the top ranks, and these grassroots officers and non-commissioned officers are either members of friendship groups or believe in nationalism, and the riots have affected all Japanese civilians and changed the fate of major political parties, while also greatly improving the status of military personnel

The U.S. military will take out Heiji Kano, and "Heizo Shikano" and "Heiji Shikano" will immediately appear......

If we can't eliminate the "officer body" behind Heiji Kano, no matter how many politicians we kill, it will be useless

Attack on Self-Defense Force officers?

Roddick didn't intend to do such a stupid thing, if it was just a few high-ranking generals, the problem would be solved, and there were hundreds of thousands of grassroots officers and non-commissioned officers involved in the uprising, and the US military would open fire on them, which would be tantamount to declaring war on Japan, and not only would the problem not be solved, but the United States would also completely break with Japan

After several hours of discussion, no one came up with an effective way to prevent the coalition of right-wing parties from coming to power

In the end, Roddick made the decision to "wait and see".

Because the end of the meeting was in the early morning of the 29th Eastern Time, the U.S. government did not immediately release information

By the time the sky dawned on the East Coast of the United States, the situation in Japan had developed to the point of no return

After meeting with the Emperor, Heiji Kano gained "all the powers": The Emperor not only issued an edict to dissolve the Diet and declare a national emergency in Japan, but also put Heiji Kano in charge of forming a temporary caretaker government, handling domestic affairs, suppressing domestic riots, quelling political turmoil, and completing all preparations for the general election

Heiji Kano, who got the "Sword of Shokata", accelerated the pace of purging political opponents and other political parties

At 11:30 Tokyo time on the 29th, after announcing the implementation of martial law on 15, Heiji Kano ordered the ban on the freedom of the press of all television stations and news agencies controlled by a coalition of right-wing political parties, and completely controlled press propaganda

Also "enjoyed" special treatment are all foreign correspondents stationed in Japan

Immediately afterward, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of China issued another strong statement, demanding that the Temporary Caretaker Government of Japan earnestly fulfill its commitments, protect the Chinese in Japan, and provide all conveniences for the evacuation of overseas Chinese

Because China's East China Sea Fleet and North Sea Fleet have already entered Japan's exclusive economic zone and opened to Japan's doorstep, Heiji Kano, who has a tough attitude at home, did not dare to cause trouble for China on the issue of evacuating overseas Chinese

In the afternoon of the same day, the experimental special forces entered Japan under the pretext of "assisting in the evacuation of overseas Chinese" and stationed themselves in the Chinese embassy and consulates in Japan

In response to this "provocative" behavior, Heiji Kano once again tolerated it

Not to mention that the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force and Air Self-Defense Force are unable to engage the Chinese Navy and Air Force, even if they have the ability, Shikano Heiji will not dare to confront China in the face of unsettled domestic turmoil

China's "active" actions have also shocked the world, and the Western media have speculated whether China will send troops to Japan to "maintain order" if the riots in Japan pose a threat to the Chinese embassy and consulates in Japan

Ji Youguo's tough, comprehensive, positive, and resolute actions have left an extremely deep impression on the whole world

The Republic's ability to respond to sudden and critical events has also been confirmed

Ji Youguo is not in the evaluation of the accident world, but more concerned about the safety of hundreds of thousands of compatriots

After the first 10 hours of intense deployment, Ji Youguo called the leaders of several major departments on the morning of the 29th and asked them to take lunch time to report the situation to the head of state

There weren't many officials who came for lunch, and the atmosphere at the dinner table was depressing

After hastily finishing the matter, Ji Youguo transferred the "battlefield" to the study, and Wang Yuanqing hurriedly took someone to clean up the room and prepare tea

It won't be long before the leaders of the Republic will make decisions that will have a major impact on the Republic and Japan (to be continued)
