The 449th Earthquake and the Great Revolution V
September 92, 05:05 a.m. Tokyo time.
The limousine in which Emperor Taisho and Emperor Hirohito were traveling stopped at the entrance of the Yasukuni Shrine in Kudanzaka, Tokyo. Behind the black bulletproof car with the Celestial Emperor's chrysanthemum family flag on the front of the car, there was a long list of cars of all kinds, on which sat all the Japanese military and political dignitaries, some of them cabinet ministers or active generals and vice admirals of the army and navy, some of them were so-called veterans and retired generals, and some were members of the House of Lords of the Japanese Parliament.
Of course, the strictest martial law had been imposed on the entire Kudanzaka, and the officers and men of the Guards Division (some of the officers and soldiers who remained in Tokyo) on both sides of the street had formed a human wall. On the other side of the human wall, the Japanese people in the best clothes, all bowing at 90 degrees, and no one dared to look directly at His Majesty the Emperor. At this time, their Taisho Emperor and Hirohito Emperor Taike are still the living gods of Japan! It's not something that ordinary people like them can look at directly, and it's said that it will cause blindness in the future, which is really difficult!
The blind emperor is helped out of a brand-new bulletproof car with the help of Emperor Hirohito. Both men were dressed in similar attire, with straight military uniforms, golden tassels on their shoulders, and a huge medal on their chests. But Emperor Hirohito is younger, probably in his thirties! Well, it's a lot older than your actual age, it's all caused by worrying about state affairs, even now, your brows are tightly twisted, maybe you're worried about Chang Ruiqing's curse, right? Emperor Taisho's complexion is not bad, and the long-term brain-dead emperor has long had no judgment. It's basically a marionette in his hand, and he probably doesn't know that his imperial army has been defeated in the Far East and Korea.
Several priests wearing top hats were already waiting at the gate of the Yasukuni Shrine. One of the tallest and oldest guys greeted him. He bowed to the Emperor and the Emperor, and said in a Yang tone: "Respectfully His Majesty the Emperor, His Royal Highness." Then he walked ahead and led the way.
The Yasukuni Shrine, a building in the pure Japanese style, is now as quiet as a mourning hall. Well, that's the mourning hall! Only the priest in his socks silently led the way, adding to the solemn atmosphere of the place. Under the guidance of the Shin's official residence, Emperor Taisho and Emperor Hirohito slowly walked towards the bronze gate of the large torii gate with their heads bowed. this era. The main hall of the Yasukuni Shrine, where the memorial tablets of the war dead are stored, is divided into several separate areas, which are dedicated to the memorial tablets of the officers and soldiers of the Imperial Japanese Army who died in several large and small wars, such as the Boshin War, the Southwest War, the Sino-Japanese War (including the occupation of Taiwan and the Boxer Rebellion), the Russo-Japanese War, the First World War, and the Second Russo-Japanese War (the Shikoku War or the Simberian Intervention War). However, when Emperor Taisho and Emperor Hirohito walked into this main hall today, they arrived in a new area that had just been cleared. This is used to place the tablets of Japanese officers and soldiers who died in the Sino-Japanese War. Nearly 100,000 small wooden platoons have been put in place, and these are the tablets of the Japanese officers and soldiers who are currently confirmed to be dead, and there are still as many as 60,000 spiritual tablets of the missing people that have not yet been put in!
Emperor Taisho probably often came to the Yasukuni Shrine to burn incense, so he was very familiar with the architectural layout here. As soon as he saw the large area filled with spiritual seats, he stopped. Suddenly asked Hirohito, "Huh." What's going on here? It didn't seem like that way the last time I came. ”
Hirohito nodded with a wry smile and said to his father: "Father, this is dedicated to the martyrs who died in this war of resistance against China. ”
"That's a lot!" Emperor Taisho frowned. "How can there be so many tablets? Could it be that there are so many martyrs who died this time? By the way, why is this war called the War of Resistance to Support? Isn't it called the China Incident or the Manchurian Incident? ”
Hirohito snorted twice with an embarrassed face before he said hesitantly: "At first, it was called the Shina incident...... But now I think it's better to call it the Anti-Support War, because, because of ......"
"What a thing!" Emperor Taisho waved his hand and said, "It sounds like letting the Shina army enter Japan." It's not lucky at all, so let's change it back quickly! ”
"But my father ......," Hirohito's head suddenly welled up with beads of sweat the size of beans. Father. The Shina Army, the Invading Army of Shina has already occupied most of the Far Eastern State and North Korea, but please rest assured that the soldiers of the Imperial Army will be able to ......."
"Nani!" Emperor Taisho exclaimed, and he couldn't care about being reserved anymore, so he jumped to his feet and shouted: "How can there be such a thing, how did you, the regent, do you?" Lost the Far Eastern State and North Korea...... Moreover, it is still hidden from me! You, you ......"
"Father, the son did not hide ......," Hirohito replied aggrievedly. In fact, he really didn't hide it, but Emperor Taisho himself rolled Hirohito's music into a telescope to play, and lost it while playing...... It's really pitiful to say that a Japanese emperor doesn't even have a few fun toys!
However, Emperor Taisho, who was suddenly half-sober, heard it, and he shouted, "Prime Minister! Who is the Prime Minister? Come out and answer! I want to ask! ”
Tanaka Yoshiichi hurriedly stepped forward and bowed to the half-brained and half-sober emperor: "Your Majesty, the micro-minister Tanaka Yoshiichi is here." ”
"Oh, you're the Prime Minister!" Emperor Taisho glanced at Tanaka and asked, "What the hell is going on!" What's going on! Say it! ”
"This ...... This, Your Majesty, is now in peace talks with China, and the Far East and North Korea, which they occupied, will soon be able to get back. ”
"Nonsense!" Emperor Taisho interrupted loudly: "Is there something wrong with your brain as the prime minister?" Can hundreds of thousands of square kilometers of land be negotiated back through negotiations? What else do you need the Ministry of the Army and the Navy to do? Wouldn't it be nice to have a Ministry of Foreign Affairs! ”
As soon as Hirohito heard this, he immediately spoke: "My father is wise, and my son also thinks that the problem cannot be solved through negotiation, so my son plans to fight against China together with the Soviet Union......
"Wait! Who to unite? ”
"Soviet Union!"
"What country is this? Why haven't you heard of it? Is it powerful? ”
"It's the original Russia...... Later, it was also called Soviet Russia, and now it is called the Soviet Union. ”
"It's Red Russia!" Emperor Taisho became even more angry when he heard this. "How can you unite Red Russia? It turns out that you, the imperial wife, are even more confused than the prime minister! Red Russia was a thorn in the side of the great powers of Britain, the United States and France. The Imperial Union of Red Russia is the enemy of these powers! When the time comes, they will all be on the side of the branch, how will the empire still fight? The brain-dead emperor stamped his feet and shouted, "Hirohito." Your brain is so confused that you can't be the emperor anymore, or the Japanese Empire will be destroyed in your hands! Uh, I'm going to change the emperor and let Yongren be the emperor, what about Yongren? Come here, you're the emperor now! ”
As soon as these words came out, the Japanese civil and military forces at the scene and the priests at the Yasukuni Shrine were all stunned. Even Prince Yongren of Chichibu Palace, who was named, opened his mouth wide, not knowing what to say, and muttered after a long time: "Father." The sons are shallow and can't be the emperor. ”
Emperor Taisho waved to his son and said, "Come here, come here, Yongren come quickly." I am the Emperor. I said that you are the emperor, and you are the emperor. It doesn't matter if you're shallow. It's better than your brother, your brother has a brain problem and can't be the emperor, if you don't do it, you can only let Xuanren do it, but Xuanren is too young. ”
This scene was embarrassing at the time, and Emperor Taisho must have been stimulated and had a bit of a psychotic attack. But the crazy emperor is also the emperor, and the words he says are also golden words! And Hirohito, the regent, really can't do it. It is also completely deserved to be abolished! So now it's up to Prime Minister Yoshiichi Tanaka to do it, if this one takes the opportunity to step on Hirohito's foot. It's not certain that this imperial lady will really be abolished!
All eyes are on Tanaka, like
are waiting for him to make a statement. And this Japanese prime minister did not squeak, but just tried to give the Yasukuni Shrine a look.
The great priest understood and said loudly: "I respectfully ask His Majesty the Emperor to pay homage to the god and comfort the heroic souls of the fallen soldiers." After saying that, he waved a tree branch to perform a consolation ceremony, and made a strangely long voice in his mouth. All the people here hung their heads deeply, and Emperor Hirohito and Yoshiichi Tanaka reverently folded their hands, and tears fell from their eyes. Under the infection of such a solemn and heavy atmosphere, Emperor Taisho seemed to have recovered a little from his mental illness, and he also bowed down to the mirror and sword that symbolized Amaterasu in the center of the main hall.
Just when everyone was secretly wondering how to deal with Emperor Taisho's madness after worshipping God. I don't know where a loud roar sounded, as if a 50mm caliber shell had exploded in my ears! Immediately afterwards, the earth under his feet shook violently, and all the people in the main hall were shaken down, and the worship shrine also fell to the ground with a clatter, followed by a creaking sound of wood breaking! The main hall of this Yasukuni Shrine, which was built in 72, actually shows signs of collapse!
Yoshiichi Tanaka was the first person to react in the main hall, and he got up and looked for Emperor Taisho in the crowd, shouting while looking for it: "Earthquake! It's an earthquake! Hurry up and protect His Majesty the Emperor to get out of here, this place is going to fall! ”
At this time, the others had already reacted. Japan is a country prone to earthquakes, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that the Japanese have had a big earthquake, but this earthquake seems to be stronger than anything they have ever encountered in the past! Emperor Taisho was also quickly discovered, although the grandson of Amaterasu was crazy, but his reaction was still very agile, and he was crawling outside the main hall with his hands and feet at this time! Yoshiichi Tanaka and Minister of War Tanaka rushed to the emperor's side, and the emperor was erected on the left and right, and ran out of the palace. As soon as they ran out of the main hall, the three of them were immediately stunned by the scene in front of them, not to a city that had been destroyed by an earthquake, they were now in a position less than the whole of Tokyo, and they saw the fire and smoke rising into the sky! The whole of Tokyo seems to be burning!
It turned out that when the earthquake struck, it was noon, and many citizens in Tokyo and other places were busy making lunch, and many homes were having fires. When a great earthquake struck, the stove overturned, flames splashed, and sparks flew wildly. The two major cities of Tokyo and Yokohama, located in the Kanto region, are not only densely populated, but also have many wooden buildings, and the earthquake damaged the gas pipes, causing gas to overflow and ignite in case of fire. The combination of several factors, such as the stoves that provide the fire source and the gas and wooden houses that are the best fuels, has turned Tokyo and other places into a sea of fire, and the sound of explosions and the cries for help from people in the fires are heard one after another.
Meanwhile. The shock wave of the earthquake caused a huge wind in the area, and the wind helped the fire to burn more and more fiercely, and the area where the fire was caused immediately became a sea of fire. And that's not all. The wind also spread the fire in all directions. Wherever the fire spreads, a sky-high fire ignites. Factories are burning, schools are burning, homes are burning...... It's all burning. The whole of Tokyo was engulfed in flames, as if the sky was burning and the earth was burning. The flames spread faster than people could have imagined. In the course of the spread of the flames. Whenever flammable and explosive materials are encountered, either a big explosion occurs or flames soar into the sky. Since most of the houses in the area had been almost razed by the earthquake before the fire. So the fire could go unimpeded, and in a very short time, the entire Japanese capital was overwhelmed by the fire!
"Oh my God, today, it's September!" I don't know who suddenly shouted. Then everyone froze. Ran to the outside of the main hall and stood stupidly and motionless. Those who were still in the main hall also forgot to flee for their lives. Everyone's minds were blank, just a thought, that is, Chang Ruiqing's curse came true! No, it's not a curse, but God has abandoned the Yamato nation and stood with Chang Ruiqing! Or Chang Ruiqing himself is a god!?
"Hey! Feed! Feed...... Are you stupid, hurry up and escort me back to the palace! I want to go back to the palace to preside over the overall disaster relief situation! Emperor Taisho's crane sounded, and of course he was a mentally ill person who did not listen to newspapers or radio. I don't know what the "normal curse" is, so I have become the most sober of these people.
"Quick. Hurry, quickly send His Majesty Xià and His Royal Highness back to the palace, first go back to the Akasaka Palace, which is an earthquake-resistant building. The minister of the palace, Nobuaki Makino, had already reacted, and hurriedly stepped forward to support Emperor Taisho and walked outside the Yasukuni Shrine. The others also woke up from the shock and followed the emperor and the ministers of the palace outside. When I got out of the collapsed Torii Bronze Gate, I saw that the street outside had been reduced to ruins, and the fire was spreading. The entrance of the Yasukuni Shrine was crowded with people, some of whom were Tokyo citizens who had just bowed to greet the emperor, and some of whom were Japanese officers and soldiers who were still maintaining order just now. All of them had blank expressions, silently being helped by someone to help the Emperor Taisho who limped out, and behind him was the loyal minister of His Majesty the Emperor, who was also a wolf.
"His Majesty the Emperor arrived, and everyone quickly avoided it!" The Imperial Household Minister roared. However, none of the people or soldiers at the scene moved, and all of them looked suspiciously at their emperor, who was said to be Yoshihito of Amaterasu's grandson.
"His Majesty the Emperor arrived, and everyone quickly avoided it!" The Imperial Minister, Nobuaki Makino, repeated. But the crowd of onlookers remained motionless, just fixed on their emperor. It's just a skinny old man, much worse than the one on the portrait, and a little nervous when he goes up, even if he wears a straight Western military uniform, he can't show his majesty at all! Could this be the grandson of God? The aesthetics of this Amaterasu god are too problematic, right? In comparison, China's Standing Committee Chairman is much more handsome!
At this time, even Emperor Taisho, who was not in his right mind, sensed that something was wrong. Before he stepped back in 92, he was an idol of the country for a whole decade, although he didn't have much real power, but he often appeared in front of the people and the army. When did people watch like this as a monster? And Emperor Taisho is not stupid, but he is a little mentally ill, his self-control is a little poor, and he often talks nonsense and does some inexplicable things (such as rolling up the edict in the Diet Hall and playing with binoculars). At this time, the brain damage of Emperor Kaisho Emperor Kahito, who had already been stimulated, flared up again, and somehow remembered the events of the Russian Revolution and the Chinese Revolution, and suddenly shouted with his hands dancing: "Oh no, the revolution is over!" Someone is going to make a revolution! Quick, quick, move troops to protect me! After shouting this, he pushed away the palace minister Makino Shinaki, turned around and ran to the Yasukuni Shrine.
It's really going to be over now! The Japanese civil and military, including Emperor Hirohito and Yoshiichi Tanaka, were all bitter in their hearts at the same time. Thanks to this damn earthquake, and the Chinese dictator's surprisingly accurate crow's beak, the godhead of the Japanese emperor is now almost gone. Now that the mad Taisho Emperor is running around in front of his subjects, if this kind of thing spreads, I am afraid that even the prestige of the emperor who has been formed for a long time will be swept away. However, now these Japanese civil and military forces can't control so much, so they hurriedly chased after Emperor Taisho and ran to the Yasukuni Shrine.
"Is the emperor a god or not?"
"Didn't you say that with His Majesty the Emperor in charge, there would be no catastrophe in Tokyo?"
"Marshal Shina is not crazy, what he said has been fulfilled!"
"It turns out that the emperor is not a god! We've all been deceived! Marshal Shina is a god! What can I do now? ”
"The Great Japanese Empire is coming to an end! We're done......"
As soon as Emperor Taisho and a cadre of civil and military ministers fled, the Japanese soldiers and civilians at the gate of the Yasukuni Shrine shouted one after another. However, it was just shouting, and he didn't do anything out of the ordinary, and it still needs to be organized and led to rebel. But where are the leaders of the Japanese revolution now? (To be continued.) )
