In Kagoshima City, tens of thousands of people surrounded the temporary residence of the city government after only one day of brewing, shouting "Down with the city government!" "Punish the governor and the Shimazu family!" (The governor is the biggest official in Kashima Prefecture)、"Lower the price of rice!" The police and soldiers were not enough to fend off the people, and the samurai in the 'populace' slashed the police with samurai swords and stormed the government's makeshift residence.

"Bang !!"

Some of the 'populace' attacked the soldiers who stopped them with guns they had obtained out of nowhere, and the soldiers immediately returned fire, killing and wounding many innocent people.

"The government people have shot and killed people!"

"Rush, kill these criminal cops!"

Immediately after the gunshots, people shouted, and the people who marched did not know the situation, thinking that the government police and soldiers were killing them, and ran around in a panic. Some of the people rushed forward in anger, snatching guns from the police and the army, and then attacking.

There were not many police officers in Kagoshima City, just over 100 people, and more than 1,000 soldiers were left behind by the Huaxia fleet, so they were the opponents of the armed 'people', so they had to retreat in a hurry.

Not long after, the city hall was breached, the governor and a group of government officials were arrested, and the people demanded that the governor let the grain merchants lower the price and release the arrested people, but the governor ostensibly agreed, promising to reduce the price the next day, and then the people released the governor.

The next day, the people were greeted not by the price reduction, but by the samurai who had been urgently assembled by the Shimazu family and the landlords, as well as the bloody suppression by the city police and soldiers. The Governor of Kagoshima declared that the people who broke through the government yesterday and arrested members of the government were mobs, violating the Imperial Constitution, and that they should all be arrested and dealt with.

The bloody crackdown by the city government led to a large number of casualties, and the people angrily returned fire, and a large number of people rushed into the private territories of Shimazu and other families, smashing and looting.

The private soldiers of the family had to go back and disperse back to support, which gave the people a chance, the city hall was breached again, the governor was placed under house arrest, and the police and soldiers laid down their arms and surrendered surrounded by nearly 100,000 people.

Kagoshima was in chaos, all the rice merchants were looted, and all the people of the Shimazu family were arrested, and the people formed a temporary committee to put the profiteers, government officials, and the Shimazu family in prison.

Soon the provisional committee established in Kagoshima shouted the slogan "freedom, equality, land, food" and openly pushed it to the rule of the government, propagated Marxism-Leninism, and used the land to win over the people.

The people who began to react knew that they could not get out, so they reluctantly joined the Fuso Red Party.

In Nagasaki, the rice rush became more and more intense, and the government had no personnel to suppress it, and the rice merchants spontaneously appointed those ruffians to attack the people, and the angry people, under the leadership of the Red Party elements, armed themselves with stones and sticks to fight against the ruffians.

The ruffians were soon overwhelmed by the people, the rice merchants were killed, the government was occupied by the organized 'people', and the Nagasaki Provisional Committee was formed, promising to lower the price of rice, which was supported by the people.

For a time, the cities in the southern part of Kyushu Island occupied the government, and even Fukuoka, the largest city in the north, was also occupied.

At the Sasebo base, the staff officers and other officers were tightly surrounded by a group of soldiers and workers, and all the guns were pointed at them.

"Surrender, this rotten government is not worthy of your allegiance, and join us in building a more democratic Fuso:"

"Phew, you rebels will not end well, the imperial army will definitely wipe you out, I will not join you!"

"Hmph, then surrender to me and let all the soldiers outside lay down their weapons, otherwise we will kill you and your family!"

"Bastards, you don't have to die!"

"Bang !!"

There was a smoking bullet hole under the staff officer's feet, and he almost fell to the ground with fright.

"I ...... I give up! ”

The remaining 10,000 Fuso soldiers at the Sasebo base laid down their arms and surrendered, and the factory workers took their weapons and put them in custody.

During the Meiji Restoration, Fuso established compulsory military service, and these workers were soldiers when they had guns, so the Red Party could raise armies as long as they had weapons.

After looting the guns and ammunition left at the Sasebo base, the Ibas possessed a large number of weapons, which began to be transported by rail to Fukuoka and the cities of Nagasaki and Kagoshima to consolidate their rule.

The rice-grabbing storm soon spread to the entire island of Kyushu, and the cities and villages in the central and northern parts of the country that had not been attacked were also carried out under the arrangement of the Red Party.

Two days later, Hiroshima, Matsuyama, Okayama, Nagoya, Kobe, and other places affected by Kyushu Island also began to hold demonstrations demanding lower rice prices, and the bloody crackdown in Kagoshima City angered the people, and workers in several cities went on strike in support of the people of Kyushu.

At the Dongjing Imperial Palace, Emperor Taisho was furious when he learned that most of the cities on Kyushu Island had been occupied by the Red Party, and ordered the army to go to Kyushu Island to suppress it, and at the same time asked the major cities on Honshu Island to arrest the workers and people who led the strikes and demonstrations, and suppressed the people's demonstrations.

"This is a conspiracy and riot, and what the Red Party has done on the island of Kyushu has endangered the security of the empire, and on the instructions of His Majesty the Emperor, martial law has been imposed throughout the country, and demonstrations have been temporarily banned."

The Emperor's instructions forced the Okuma Cabinet to abandon the moderate measures it was prepared to impose, forcefully declare that the people involved in the siege of the government on Kyushu Island were mobs and criminals, urgently mobilize troops from the Kure Port base to Kyushu Island, and at the same time order all the soldiers at the Sasebo base to rush to suppress the mob.

"The soldiers of the Sasebo base have mercy on the suffering of the affected people, and the noble profiteers have hoarded food on a large scale and sold it to the people dozens of times, they should be killed! Kyushu Erlang fought bravely on the Korean battlefield to kill the enemy, but his wife in the rear was starving, and heaven could not tolerate it! To this day, all the faults are due to the chaos of the empire, and millions of sons and daughters have died on the battlefield, and they have never seen a victory! The government is incompetent, the military is incompetent! Today, all the soldiers of the Sasebo base surrender to the Sasebo Provisional Committee! ”

This telegram from the staff officer of the Sasebo base to the imperial government shocked the whole of Fuso, and the people of Kyushu Island cheered, and the army surrendered to witness that they were right and not a so-called mob.

The Red Party of Kyushu Island led their armies to attack the estates and shops of landlords, nobles, and merchants, and collected their grain and money, thus obtaining a large amount of grain. The Red Party used this grain to distribute to the people who did not have food, to win over the people, and most of the people supported them.

"The time has not yet come for Kyushu Island to become independent, and if we declare independence, it will be a storm that will greet us, unless we can get the support of the Huaxia Empire!" Katayama said to a group of men.

Katayama Ken, a Fuso Mannist and pioneer of Fuso socialism, joined the Fuso Social Democratic Party in 1901 and was arrested in 1911 while leading a strike of tram workers in Dongjing. The release coincided with the time of the revolution of the Red Party of Tsarist Russia, and the revolution of the Red Party of Tsarist Russia gave him hope, and he sent people to contact the Red Party of Tsarist Russia for help, and at the same time summoned the old department to secretly continue to develop party members.

The Red Party of Tsarist Russia wished that someone would carry out a revolution like them to strengthen the Red Camp, so both funds and weapons gave great support to the Fuso Red Party.

Because of the war, the Red Party developed like a fish in water in Fuso, and in only a few months, it absorbed hundreds of thousands of party members, and after learning that the troops on Kyushu Island were transferred to Korea, Katayama Qian decisively took a core subordinate to Kyushu Island. The Huaxia fleet attacked and directly created a situation for them, so that they had today's situation, but their foundation was still too weak.

"Chief, in fact, Huaxia may still wish we were independent, which is in their interests. The rotten government has no power to control us now, and the people of Kyushu still have hope in that idiot emperor and may not trust us! A young man in his twenties said.

This young man was none other than the famous Fuso Red Leader of later generations -- Tokuda Koichi, who was not considered young, but he was deeply appreciated by the current leader Katayama Qian, and became one of the core figures of the Fuso Red Party at the age of 20.

Katayama shook his head and said, "Which is more important, Kyushu Island or North Korea, which is less than half left?" As long as we declare independence the idiot emperor will definitely drive the Korean army back to attack us, there will be a large number of Kyushu soldiers inside, which will be mixed for us. ”

The Fuso Red Party still has the vision to judge the situation and assess the situation, and now their task is to consolidate their rule on the island of Kyushu, and to consolidate their rule is nothing more than the army and propaganda. They have ready-made troops, but most of them are workers and peasants who have not fought in actual combat, and they still have to suffer against those regular troops who have been in a hundred battles. As for propaganda, it is to bombard the red ideology and indiscriminately brainwash the people and win over the people's support for them.

Today, although the island of Kyushu has not declared independence, it is in fact equivalent to independence, and all local governments have been occupied and taken over by the Provisional Council, which has formed a militia, which is used to maintain order in name but is actually forming its own army.

The emperor directly ordered the suppression of the procession, and the procession began to be suppressed by the police and soldiers.

Most of the factories in Nagoya went on strike, and tens of thousands of workers took to the streets to demonstrate, and suddenly a dozen police cars rushed straight to the crowd. Under this sudden attack, the ranks of the masses were immediately confused. Police and gangsters wearing steel helmets on their heads took advantage of the situation to rush into the crowd, brandishing batons to beat the crowd and stepping over the fallen people.

Then a wing intercepted their retreat behind the procession, erecting crane guns to sweep them, countless bullets from frantically burrowing into their bodies.

"Kill these mobs, it is precisely because of these mobs that there will be riots on Kyushu Island, all of them deserve to die, kill me!"

"Da !!"

The wing commander brandished his saber for the unyielding machine gunners to fire, and for them the emperor's orders were greater than heaven, and these mobs deserved to die.

This is happening in all cities across the country, where either the military and police cooperate in the massacre of people who march or the police or soldiers massacre people.
