"Inaba-san, do you know what your proposal means?!" Masahiko Takeshita took a deep breath and asked Masao Inaba.

The latter nodded, indicating that he knew what the consequences of the decision would be.

"Nope! You don't know, let me tell you what happens. Masahiko Takeshita stood up with a hula and said coldly.

"Xiyuan Temple Gongwang is from the 'Qinghua family', and his family is below the highest regent and above the minister's family. In terms of official positions, you can also serve as a general and minister of the guard, and you can be promoted to the minister of the Imperial Minister! ”

"The Saionji family's original surname is 'Fujiwara', and his family has been close to the imperial family for more than a thousand years. You must know that most of the queens of the emperors of the past dynasties were born in the Fujiwara clan! ”

"His people have been filial piety, Meiji, Taisho, and Showa four generations of emperors, and the former emperor Meiji His Majesty died of diabetes, and it was Saionji Temple who presided over the funeral."

"The four generations of emperors have accumulated a terrifying network of contacts for Saiyuan Temple! Even in 226 Middle School, Takahashi Shiqing, Minoru Saito and other important ministers were attacked, but no one in Xiyuan Temple dared to slam a single hair! Why?! Because the power behind him and the power he represents are too strong! ”

Masahiko Takeshita took a deep breath and said, "Don't talk about assassinating him, even if he is just a headache and brain fever, His Majesty must show concern to him today!" ”

And since the Taisho period, successive prime ministers have been advised by him. And 'Zephyr', although it does not directly hang any name. But everyone in politics knows that the owner there will only become prime minister if the owner approves of you. Otherwise, you'll never set foot in that position! ”

After speaking. Masahiko Takeshita glanced coldly at Masao Inaba. "And now?!" Do you still want to carry out your plan?! ”

Masao Inaba stopped squeaking, he was just a soldier. Or a royal and radical soldier. He didn't know anything about it, and he couldn't understand it.

All he knew was that Xiyuan Temple was the patriarch of the dynasty. And for the old man's experience. He knew almost nothing. Masahiko Takeshita, on the other hand, is different.

can become Anan's sister-in-law, Takeshita Masahiko naturally has his own merits. Political acumen is one of them. And this point is vividly played at this time.

"How many times the cabinet has been reorganized, I'm sure you know better than I do. However, no matter how many times he has been reorganized, the manipulation power of this adult has not been reduced by half a point. Masahiko Takeshita said coldly: "What this means, you should be clear. ”

Yes. They are well aware. This means that the old man's influence in Japanese politics and influence on Hirohito are beyond their reach.

"Now, do you still want us to do this......" Masahiko Takeshita said coldly to Masao Inaba. And the latter was silent. He didn't expect that an old man, who was already over ninety years old, would still have such a great influence.

Even his every move involved the entire Japanese military and political trend.

"Yes, I know about the situation at Saionji Temple......" Masao Inaba said. After a pause, he said fiercely: "But I will still do it!" Because...... I have to do it! ”

Masao Inaba said. He stood up abruptly and roared, "Isn't it clear to all the monarchs here about the current situation?!" The empire has reached the present, and His Majesty has been completely handed over to Xiyuan Temple! ”

"And what he is doing now is to betray our emperor and His Majesty. In exchange for the so-called 'peace' he dreamed of! Masao Inaba said fiercely: "He is no longer the brave man of His Majesty Meiji back then, he is now just a bastard who does not hesitate to sell everything in order to survive!" ”

"If you don't get rid of him, then Your Majesty, that is, the soldiers of the entire Japanese Empire, put down their swords and guns and let those vulture-like troops slaughter them!"

As he spoke, Masao Inaba took a deep breath and said, "I think, you don't want this either, right?!" You don't want that, do you?! Are you willing to watch the empire collapse like this?! ”

"Are you willing to just watch the heroic Emperor ** team for which we have given everything to collapse?!" Masao Inaba said fiercely, "If you want to, just watch like this." Then I have nothing to say. ”

Everyone was silent, and by looking at their faces, you could tell how much they were struggling. Let's be honest. To kill an old minister of the Four Dynasties, the determination required is not ordinary.

Their silence is understandable. After all, once the decision is made to assassinate Xiyuan Temple, no matter whether it succeeds or fails, it is likely that no one present will survive.

If this happens, no one can predict how big the aftermath and shock will be.

"I'll go......" After being silent for a long time, Kenji Hatanaka said to everyone with a hoarse voice: "I'll do this thing......

"You all have to die, but someone has to sacrifice. I thought maybe I should do it. At least, I won't regret it......"

Masao Inaba stood up excitedly and said in a deep voice: "I'll go with you!" This kind of sacrifice may only suit us. Even if we fail, this is worthy of those emperors who have sacrificed......"

As soon as these words came out, the scene was directly fried. A group of people stood up excitedly, and the buzzing discussion continued. Since someone is the first to stand up, then someone will support it next.

And Masahiko Takeshita also stood up at this time. He pushed aside the crowd, walked between the two and said, "This matter cannot be acted on so easily. ”

"We need to plan well, including what will happen after Saionji's death. to cooperate with our actions so that your sacrifice is worthwhile......"

Masao Inaba also calmed down at this time, he nodded and said to Masahiko Takeshita, "Yes! We need to plan, but we don't have much time. I believe that Xiyuan Temple will not last long and will betray us! ”

"So, we're going to get everything planned before this happens......"

The people in the tavern sat down again and carefully discussed the details of the plan. In fact, there is no need to change their plans. It was only on the basis of the original seizure of power that the plan to assassinate Xiyuan Temple was added.

The assassination of Saionji needs to be carried out first, and only after confirming that Saionji is finished can they proceed with the next coup plan. At the same time, they needed to seize the command of the Eastern Army and launch an offensive against the Wehrmacht.

Forcing the cabinet and the base camp to continue the war with the Wehrmacht, the death of Saionji Temple and the chaos caused by the Eastern Army would lead to chaos in the entire Japanese political situation and army.

And they can take advantage of the chaos to cover up the past. They were even able to seize command and let Japan run as they wanted.

It's only been three days, and they've already finalized the entire planning process. Time was pressing, and Masao Inaba and Kenji Hata asked for leave under the pretext that they had thought about it behind closed doors.

The Minister of War Anan had no idea that they would be so crazy, and in order to avoid the excesses of the radicals, Anan agreed to their leave.

After obtaining their consent, Masao Inaba and Kenji Hatanaka secretly headed for Fukuoka overnight......

"We don't have much time left...... Xiyuan Temple is also smiling bitterly, there has been no progress at all in the negotiations in the past few days. The Wehrmacht refused to retreat at all, demanding unconditional surrender.

The Wehrmacht's request to "maintain the national body" was scoffed at by the Wehrmacht, and all the reasons were exhausted, but the Wehrmacht just did not let go. Seeing that the time is passing day by day, the seven-day time limit is almost up.

Xiyuan Temple was anxious, but there was nothing to be done. They are all in their nineties, and they don't have enough energy. After this toss, Xiyuan Temple has clearly felt that his life is short.

"Maybe I'm dying, but I hope to be able to finish one last thing for the empire before I die......," Saionji coughed constantly, the pressure of negotiation taking a lot of toll on his spirit.

"Your Excellency, if it really doesn't work, let's just terminate the negotiation and let someone else come......" The secretary suggested to Xiyuan Temple in great pain, and the latter coughed and shook his head.

"If I can't talk about it, other people can't talk about it...... "Saionji said with a wry smile, "Who in Japan has a better relationship with the imperial family than me?!" Who can guarantee that the outcome of the negotiation will be meticulously executed so that the tiger can't find a place to put his mouth after the negotiation is out?! ”

The secretary was silent, and he could only gently hand over warm water and pills. Xiyuan Temple's health was not good in the first place, and various illnesses intensified a lot when he got older.

"I don't have a choice...... This may be the last thing I can do for the Empire......" Xiyuan Temple coughed continuously, and a strange flush appeared on his face.

As he spoke, Xiyuan Temple smiled bitterly.

"I really don't understand that it's just such a simple thing as 'keeping the national system'. Why don't they agree?! I even agreed to let them deal with everyone in the military department, and even all the industrial equipment in the whole of Japan. Why are they still not satisfied?! Is it so important for them to deal with the royal family......"

"Don't relax, Hirohito, I have to judge him! He should not be delusional that he will be able to escape punishment, he must be punished as the culprit of this war! ”

Tu Mengben was in his headquarters and said coldly to Su Zongzhen and the others.

"Commander, now Xiyuan Temple has given up all conditions. Just ask us to guarantee Hirohito's status and not deal with the imperial family. Even the other princes, he said he could handle it. Su Zongzhen paused and said, "Such conditions seem to be his bottom line......

"I know what you mean, are you worried that he's destroying those industrial facilities?!" Tu Menghu smiled coldly: "Even if all the industrial facilities are gone, I must put Hirohito on trial!" ”

"This ...... For the soldiers of the Wehrmacht lying in the martyrs' cemetery, and for the millions of compatriots who died in vain! Hirohito! He has to pay the price! At the very least, he must die in our hands! (To be continued......)
