December 24 is the beginning of Christmas night in the West, but this day is not destined to be a holiday for the Easterners. The Imperial Palace of Japan, since the robbery of the Yamato Bank vault, Emperor Taisho, who has been ill for a long time, came to the Imperial Palace Council Hall, which he had not entered for a long time, with the support of Prince Hirohito.

Seeing the latest report in his hand, the excited Taisho Emperor once again smashed his favorite Ming Dynasty teacup, and the dozen or so important members of the party, government, and military circles kneeling in front of him suddenly fell to the ground in unison.

The prince Hirohito beside him was even more frightened and didn't dare to say a superfluous word, but kept persuading Emperor Taisho: "Father, the emperor is angry, take care of your health." ”

Emperor Taisho didn't know where to get the strength, and broke free from Hirohito's support. Holding the crutch in his hand, he trembled and pointed at the dozen or so important ministers in front of him and scolded:

"You fools, how many times have you said that there are some things that cannot be done, especially on the territory of the Chinese, and these angry things cannot be done, and once discovered, it will put the empire in a very unfavorable situation.

It's better for you to secretly do all these unseemly things behind my back.

Who told you to set up an opium warehouse in the Hongkou Dojo? Who told you to go around plundering those Chinese women? If you only plunder Chinese women, forget it, and rob so many Western women.

Now it's okay, it's all exposed. Do you know how much money we spent to quell the anger of the nations? ”

"Report to Your Majesty, I have already discussed it with the people of the War Department just now. For everything that happened in the Hongkou Dojo, we can only deal with it as if we don't know and don't know.

At the same time, the water family, which is the culprit, has agreed to remove Shui Yiyun and Shui Qingming from the water family, and they will all bear the black pot of this incident.

In short, everything they did in Shanghai had nothing to do with our empire, it was just the wrongdoing of a small group of outlaws in Japan.

We also deeply condemn this violation of human norms. We will definitely eliminate the impact as soon as possible, so please rest assured that His Majesty the Emperor. Prime Minister Reijiro Wakatsuki was the first to explain.

"Very good, I am waiting for your results, and all the people who know about the Hongkou Dojo this time, you must all be destroyed, as well as that Yamato Liangtian. As a Japanese, he turned out to be a spy for the Chinese, you must catch him and break my body to pieces. ”

Emperor Taisho shouted fiercely.

"Hey!" Everyone under the emperor's feet agreed in unison.

"And what is Li Tie of Huaxing Foreign Bank, whose person is it? You have to find out to me which side he is on. Why did he participate in every major loss of the empire? The Emperor wondered.

Hearing Emperor Taisho's inquiry, Deputy Prime Minister Yoshikashi Tanaka, who was in charge of intelligence information, reported:

"That Li Tie's identity is not complicated. It's just that luck has allowed him to grow and develop in just one year. However, this time, he only followed the Axe Gang to the Hongkou Dojo, and he was indeed helping his fiancée, the Thousand-Tailed Scorpion of the Axe Gang, to take revenge.

And we have already received a tip-off that it was Yamato Yoshida who assassinated the thousand-tailed scorpion. It is also possible that the purpose of Yamato Ryota's assassination of the thousand-tailed scorpion was to induce the Axe Gang and Li Tie to attack the Hongkou Dojo.

Your Majesty, you should know that for a person who is determined to take revenge, it is possible to do anything hurtful. ”

"Well, in other words, because of the personal grudges of the Yamato Rada family, it is indeed our Great Japanese Empire that is unlucky, and we know that our enemies are the Axe Gang, and it is true that our people have lost their morality first and cannot avenge them in a righteous and bright way, am I right? Do all the gentlemen agree with Tanaka's explanation? ”

The ministers at the feet of Emperor Taisho nodded in agreement.

"Yes, Your Majesty the Emperor, this time the Axe Gang not only robbed the Hongkou Dojo of the smoke and soil, but also seized the Yamato warehouse. The vast amount of supplies in the warehouse was also urgently transported away by the Axe Gang.

In the end, the Axe Gang even blew up the warehouse and the dojo, which is the consistent style of the Axe Gang. In their Chinese words, chickens and dogs are not left. Kill, rob, blow up. It's very vicious. ”

"Hmph, one day, the iron cavalry of our Great Japanese Empire will also set foot in China. At that time, I will also give them a three-light policy.

But why did the Axe Gang make such a big move, and our garrison didn't react at all, and our garrison died? Emperor Taisho said angrily.

"Report to Your Majesty, Yamato Ryota has long been against him, so he colluded with several rebels in the garrison and gave the garrison a ** at dinner that day.

Fortunately, they still had a little conscience, they just stunned the garrison, robbed the arsenal, and did not kill these garrisons. So these garrisons did not wake up until noon the next day, not knowing what had happened that night.

As for the Yamato warehouse, it was originally guarded by a reinforced team of soldiers, but it was also transferred out of the warehouse by the order of the consulate ambassador of Yamato Ryota, and this team of soldiers was ambushed by the Axe Gang on the way to the rescue of the Hongkou Dojo. ”

"Abominable Yamato Ryota I will send for his grave. "The Emperor is very angry." Then why didn't the consulate report this matter earlier, they could have sent an urgent report that night, and we could have sent an urgent note to the Chinese ambassador in our country. It can also contact the garrisons of other countries in the surrounding embassy area to allow other countries to send troops to intervene. ”

"Report to Your Majesty, in fact, the British and French embassies each sent a small team of soldiers to the Hongkou Dojo that night to check, but I heard that they also received a bomb warning from the Axe Gang, so they retreated."

"These Westerners are just timid, and a few broken bombs can take care of them. It can be seen that in the future, our opponent is just a group of paper tigers, and they are not vulnerable at all. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, our warriors of the Great Japanese Empire are highly trained. With the quality of our soldiers, there is absolutely no problem in sweeping the best teams all over the world today. ”

"Okay, since that's the case, then this Hongkou Dojo is an outcast, and I won't pursue the personnel losses suffered by our empire.

However, because of the Hongkou Dojo, we have lost tens of millions of yen, and not only that, but our image in the international community has also been greatly affected, so I hope you can find a way to make up for the loss of the empire as soon as possible.

You know, the Empire's army is expanding, the Empire's weapons are being updated, and we need to build more guns, more artillery, more warships and planes.

As Emperor now, I eat only two meals a day and only one meat a week, and I hope that you will work with me to contribute to the hegemony of Asia and the world in the Japanese Empire. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty. We have telegraphed Zhang Zuolin in northeastern China to ask him to speed up the repayment of the loan owed to us. In addition, the army and Japanese expatriates in the northeast, with our covert support, are seizing more territory and more mines.

I believe that in another three or two years, half of the empire's resource consumption can be obtained in the northeast. When we completely occupy the Northeast, it will be the time for our great Japanese empire to take off. "Yoshiichi Tanaka finally reported some good news.

"Very well, this is what an Imperial Servant looks like. Occupying the Northeast first, then China, and then Asia is the unfulfilled wish of several generations of emperors of our empire for more than 100 years.

I hope that in my lifetime I can fulfill the unfulfilled wish of my ancestors, and realize the great feat of our first occupation of China in thousands of years, and cheer for the glory that is to come. ”

"Hooray, hooray!" In front of the emperor, all the ministers straightened up in excitement and cheered loudly.

While the emperor and the ministers were cheering, one of his chamberlains hurried into the hall with a telegram in his hand, which he delivered directly to the prime minister.

The prime minister, who was cheering, looked at the telegram in his hand, felt a great pain in his heart, and almost fell to the ground, but his colleagues immediately stepped forward to support him.

I only heard the prime minister say with a sad and relieved face: "Your Majesty the Emperor, all the spies we have arranged in Shanghai for ten years have fled back to Japan, and the rest of the spies, including all the staff of the Moon Agency, have all been killed. ”

"What?" The hall, including the Emperor, was filled with the sound of inhalation.

"Who is the person who is repeatedly against us, first the Yamato Pill was robbed, then the Yamato Bank was stolen, and now the Hongkou Dojo has been wiped out, and now the Moon Mechanism that we have arranged in Shanghai for ten years has been uprooted by the Axe Gang, has Amaterasu abandoned us?"

Emperor Taisho was excited, and suddenly felt dizzy, and his heart was still in some severe pain, only to see Emperor Taisho's left hand tightly grasp his heart, and his body fell backwards unconsciously.

Emperor Hirohito, who was next to him, immediately stepped forward to support Emperor Taisho, and the prime minister and various dignitaries in front of him couldn't care about discussing it anymore. They all stepped forward to check on the safety of Emperor Taisho.

At this time, it was already past zero morning, and I saw a crowd of people in the Japanese Imperial Palace, and various staff members were in chaos. This panic lasted less than an hour, and the cries of the people were heard from inside the palace.

At 1:25 a.m. on December 25, 1926, Emperor Taisho suffered a heart attack and died after rescue efforts failed.

On the same day, Prince Hirohito took over as emperor and began to exercise the duties of emperor.

The first thing Hirohito did after coming to power was to rebuild the Shanghai Yue Agency, but all the Japanese intelligence departments were frightened by the news that the Shanghai Intelligence Department had been wiped out, and no one dared to go to Shanghai for a while to take charge of the relevant matters related to the reconstruction of the Shanghai Yue Agency.

Just when Emperor Hirohito was furious about the greed for life and fear of death in the intelligence department, good news suddenly came from Shanghai, it turned out that the intelligence personnel of the Shanghai and Moon agencies had not been eliminated, but were more hidden.

These agents are the four spies of the original Nanzao team headed by Nanzao Yunzi and Miss Nanzao Yunzi herself, a total of five people.

Upon learning the news that Nanzao Yunzi was still alive, the Japanese intelligence agencies were greatly excited, and it happened that Shanghai still lacked an intelligence supervisor who could handle it, so they issued a telegram and promoted Nanzao Yunzi to the head of the Shanghai secret service, responsible for commanding and recruiting all the special agents in Shanghai.

Tongjin Nanzao Yunzi was also unusually promoted from a small captain to the head of the lieutenant colonel. And Nanzao Yunzi's first task when he was promoted to the head of the agency was to thoroughly investigate Li Tie's true identity and Li Tie's political leanings and other related matters.

In short, the more detailed the information about Li Tie, the better, and it is best to find out what underwear he likes to wear and how many moles he has on his body.

It's a pity that the Japanese intelligence department is destined to be even more disappointed this time, because the director of the Nanzao Agency, who they have high hopes for, is lying in Li Tie's arms at this time, and the two are like two sticky candy, deeply glued together.
