In August, Li Huamei and Lin Han quietly returned to Japan to meet with their "daughter" Yamato Nadeshiko. After the signing of the armistice agreement in May, Japan's "big gamble on national fortunes" succeeded once again, ending the war as the victor.

After the war, Japan pulled its teeth out of the mouth of the United States and grabbed the Philippines as a new colony. Although the Philippines was given a piece of fat, Japan's domestic economy did not improve because of the end of the war. The war lasted for nearly five years, draining Japan's treasury. Although the Philippines has some oil and water, it will not be able to make up for the losses caused by the five-year war in the short term.

It was like the Russo-Japanese War, which defeated the United States, and Japan could not squeeze even a dollar of savings from the United States. During the Geneva negotiations, Japan, which was so poor that even rats at home starved to death, wanted to "sell" American prisoners of war for a small amount of money, but this demand was directly rejected by the US side as "violating international law", and the Eurasian Union also did not support Japan on this matter on a moral high ground, so it had no choice but to give up in the end.

During the war, in order to maintain the war, Japan owed a large amount of war arrears to the Soviet Union, Germany, Britain, and even China. After the war, how to repay this arrears became the most difficult problem for Japan. As Japan's "traditional ally", Britain has put on a high posture and discounted some of its arrears, but the combined foreign debt to other countries still exceeds 500 million pounds.

500 million pounds is not too big, but as the beneficiaries of this war, the Japanese domestic chaebols, greedy they do not want to take on this debt at all. While the Geneva peace talks were still ongoing, Japan was constantly discussing raising taxes on its citizens in order to repay its debts.

The target of the tax increase is not only for civilians in the country, but also for "immigrants" in the Philippines.

In the past, in the face of the Japanese government's demand for "tax increases" controlled by the chaebols. The emperor, who exists as a "rubber stamp" spiritual leader, is powerless even if he wants to oppose it, and in the end he can only pinch his nose and admit it.

But now, Emperor Chongren, who has the support of the "gods", has the prestige of winning the Pacific War, but he has the confidence to wrestle with the domestic chaebol.

Philippines. Especially in Medan, the civilians here belong to the emperor's power, and the "basic plate" of the navy and marine divisions is the "dividend" of the emperor's bribery of the navy and marine divisions. The government wants to raise taxes here, and the first thing it is dissatisfied with is

That's the kind of person you are.

Japan's old stubborn disease, the contradiction between land and sea, broke out.

In the past, what the emperor could do was to take advantage of the conflict between land and sea. Come out and dilute the mud to make some small profits for yourself.

But the current Emperor Chongren is different, he is only in his thirties now, and he is still young and vigorous, and his ambitions are already very big. In the past, under the instigation of Li Huamei, now in the "true. With the full support of Yamato Nadeshiko", he no longer wants to be a balance between "all forces", he wants to be a "real power". The "true emperor" who can control everything.

Privately, Emperor Shohito said to Yamato Nadeshiko, "Why should I look at the faces of these disgusting creatures again? ”

Of course, the current Emperor Chonghito has the confidence to say so. He is now. There are as many as eight marine divisions under the direct control of China. After the Geneva Accords, the Marine Division of the Navy stationed in Hawaii was also repatriated. These marine divisions, known in Japan as the emperor's "own sons", are given priority in the supply of good equipment, and their combat effectiveness is far above that of the army. And because of the "Medan welfare". Their interests were even more tightly tied to the emperor.

After the nuclear bombing of Atura, the Navy laboriously salvaged the radiation-filled Atura Island and salvaged a lot of good equipment from the sunken ships of the US military, which was still in the hands of the Navy afterwards, and did not leave any of it to the Army.

In addition, the emperor's henchmen in the army, Okamura Ninji and Ishihara Wan'er, were also completely on Takahito's side. The current Emperor Takahito theoretically controls more than half of Japan's military forces, and is fully capable of wrestling with the Japanese government and chaebol conglomerates.

In the past few months, Japan's "internal affairs" have been very "splendid".

The Diet government, which is controlled by consortiums such as Mitsui and Nakajima, has repeatedly proposed bills to raise taxes for the people and passed them, but the emperor has repeatedly hit the nail on the head. Emperor Takhito even publicly proposed his own bill to raise taxes: demanding an increase in income tax for three years for domestic conglomerates and zaibatos.

As soon as this bill was introduced, it immediately set off the pot of domestic politics in Japan and led to the deterioration of the relationship between the emperor and other domestic conglomerates and zaibatsu forces. Although the consortium continued to send people to persuade Emperor Takin to "take back his chaotic life", Takahito, who was encouraged by Yamato Nadeshiko behind him, was bent on becoming a "reformer" and "real power" who would "go down in history" and refused to take a half step back.

At this time, Emperor Chongren, under the instigation of Li Huamei and Yamato Nadeshiko, was bent on "once and for all" solving Japan's 2,000 accumulated ills, and was determined to rely on his prestige, military strength, and God-given opportunity to become "Hitler's second" and carry out a "great socialist" reform in Japan to engage in so-called "feudal socialism."

And the consortium zaibatsu is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and they see that Emperor Chonghito relies on two things: one is the support of the gods Yamato Nadeshiko, which is a prestige help. And the backers in strength are the eight marine divisions that have been expanding through the war.

In August, in line with the principle of drawing wages from the bottom of the kettle, the Japanese Government proposed a "disarmament plan," and the first sword of disarmament was to cut at the emperor's own son, the Marine Division.

Emperor Nozohito, who had experienced the taste of being forced into the palace with a gun on the tip of his nose, firmly believed in the truth that "power comes from the barrel of a gun" and that the Marine Division was the lifeblood of his power, and he vigorously opposed it wherever anyone could interfere in this matter.

In the past three months, the common people in Japan have really seen a good show of the emperor and high-ranking government officials "tearing each other apart."

Regardless of any tax increase bills passed by the government, the emperor rejected all of them, deeming them illegal, and even demanded that the government be dissolved and re-elected. However, the new government is still a lackey of the conglomerates, and its policies are still the same. The emperor's request for a tax hike on the foundation's financial policies could not be passed in the Diet either. And for the sake of disarmament, the army and navy are also tearing each other apart. The Emperor supported the navy, and the Diet supported the two militaries, and the two sides quarreled with each other.

At this time, the "god" Yamato Nadeshiko, who had major decision-making power on Japanese issues, secretly supported the emperor, but on the surface he remained neutral.

Privately, she explained to Emperor Takahito: "This is to give those who oppose you and refuse to side with His Majesty the Emperor an opportunity to jump out on their own and take a stand so that we will have to make a great effort to discern in the event of a future purge." (To be continued......)
