On the streets of Tokyo, snowflakes are constantly falling from the sky, which makes some children seem extremely happy. Snow usually falls in January in Tokyo, and while December is not impossible, it may not be seen once in a few years...

"Be careful, don't fall..."

Walking down the street, which has been dyed silver by snow, a middle-aged woman in a plain kimono said with a smile.

Not far in front of her, a boy who looked to be no more than seven or eight years old was running around in the snow.

Seeing this scene, many adults showed a smile on their faces, as if they had seen themselves when they were young, and even some adults who were still struggling with their livelihood were much more relaxed. There are also some children who are even more eager to try it after seeing this scene, but they just look sideways at the adults around them, and they can only endure this impulse after the last time, otherwise they will be beaten into eight petals when they go home...

At this time, the social atmosphere in Japan was the most liberal since the Meiji era, and the social atmosphere was relaxed, and although the Japanese people did not dare to say how good their lives were, they still felt some of the benefits of being a great power.

However, not everyone in Tokyo was so happy at this time, and at least a few people walked through the streets without the slightest sign of being infected by this atmosphere. The gloomy face made many people in Tokyo on the streets very strange.

Looking at these guys dressed as ronin, almost all the people in Tokyo on the street took the initiative to avoid them and whispered.

"What are those guys doing..."

"Who knows..."

"It's better not to have anything to do with them..."

And the guys dressed as ronins didn't pay any attention to this, just kept their heads down. Keep going. After a few minutes, I came to a tavern...

Unlike the cold climate outside, the atmosphere inside the tavern was very hot. Many of the fellows dressed as ronins were drinking inside, complaining about something.

“…………… Don't those cowards of the government see that the threat is imminent? ”

"How can they not see it, they are just worried about the reaction of the British and American powers, as Yamada-kun said, they are all cowards and cowards!"

"What coward? It's a national thief. It's a national thief!! ”

More than a dozen Japanese ronins shouted loudly with their wine glasses held high, and the owner of the restaurant had no opinion on this, and he could see it. These dozen or so people seem to be regular visitors here.

Since the news that Yan Shao had purchased three dreadnoughts from South America at his own expense reached Japan, it immediately caused a sensation in this not very large country. If the previous 'five-year plan' only made ordinary Japanese people feel a little worried, then this news is like a lightning strike for them.

Since more than a year ago, China's steel production has surpassed that of Japan several times. It's just that China's industrial base was weak at that time. The steel produced is either used in auto parts factories or arsenals. Either it is for exports, and as for the consumption of domestic industry on this, it can be said that it is almost zero.

Because of this, many Japanese newspapers at the time ridiculed this, believing that the so-called Xiangshan Iron Works, "although this iron plant is large and can be called the first in Asia, but China at this time did not have the industrial strength to match it...", "it is just a useless face-saving project to satisfy the vanity of the Chinese industrial power." ’…

Nature. At that time, Japan was absolutely qualified to laugh at China, although Japan's steel production at that time was only a few hundred thousand tons. However, it has a relatively comprehensive industrial base. In their shipyards, they have even begun to build successors to the Kongo-class battle cruisers, and at the same time, they have begun to build their own 'Fuso-class' super dreadnoughts, which are far more comprehensive in terms of industry than China at that time.

So, what if steel production loses? In the eyes of the Japanese, the so-called Xiangshan Iron Works is just a product of the Chinese swelling their faces and fat people.

Let alone...

They also have a strong army, especially the navy, and although the Japanese navy, which has more than a dozen battleships, does not yet have a single dreadnought, it is definitely not something that the Chinese can confront it.

Although the Japanese worship the army, the navy is also an army they are proud of.

However, at this time, the news actually came that the Chinese had purchased battleships from South America, and there were actually three at a time, and all of them were dreadnoughts that even Japan did not have.

Although at this time, the construction of the Japanese own dreadnoughts had already begun, and it was still a super dreadnought that only a few powerful countries had, but the Japanese would not think so, they would only know that the other side now has a powerful weapon that they do not have...

At this time, Japan was still a little different from the Japan of later generations, and at this time, the Japanese emphasized that the lack of equipment was made up for by the Yamato soul, and what about the later generations? It doesn't matter what the equipment is, as long as you have the Yamato soul...

In addition, at this time, Japan had just become a great power, and there was still some lack of confidence in the bottom of his heart, and after this news reached Japan, it naturally caused many people to panic, and some people even felt a sense of threat.

So some people ran to ask the government to 'nip the threat in the bud' as soon as possible, but the government ignored their 'wise' request, so many people who were dissatisfied with the government went to the restaurant to vent their dissatisfaction...

Just when more than a dozen ronins were still there scolding loudly, at this time, a few ronins with gloomy faces outside walked in and immediately attracted their attention.

"Kurata-kun, why are you here so late..."With a hint of drunkenness, a small Japanese man walked up. But just when he wanted to hand a glass of wine to a Japanese named Kurata, he found that this man named Kurata didn't seem to look very good. "What's wrong? With such an ugly face, is there some trouble? ”

It seems that this guy named Kurata seems to be very popular, and when he heard the little ronin say this, many ronins soon surrounded him and asked for warmth.

The Japanese ronin named Kurata shook his head. "It's nothing, it's just that I just saw some annoying news in the newspaper...", Kurata said and took out a newspaper from his bosom and handed it to the little ronin. I found a place to ask for a glass of wine and drank it alone.

On the other side, those somewhat curious ronins took the newspaper and looked at it, and soon turned to the annoying news in Kurata's mouth. After seeing the above news, these people immediately scolded angrily, but while scolding, a little jealousy flashed on their faces...

————————————————————

It's also in Tokyo, but compared to that small restaurant, the headquarters of the Kuomintang, which was once China's largest political party, is much more deserted. It's just that it will become like this, and I don't know if it's because of a series of setbacks before, or because of the cold weather at this time—————— it's because of the weather...

In the porch of the Kuomintang headquarters, several members were sitting listlessly in chairs.

At the same time in Sun Yat-sen's office. The atmosphere is also very solemn. Perhaps because of some concern, there were only three people in the office at this time, Sun Yat-sen, Song Jiaoren and Huang Xing, but when they looked at the other two. Sun Yat-sen's expression was obviously a little unkind.

"I disagree!"

Clenching his fists tightly, Sun Yat-sen roared angrily.

"Yat-sen..."

With a long sigh, Huang Xing persuaded bitterly.

"I know about your grievances with Yan Shao, but you have to focus on the overall situation..."

"yes......... Yatsen. We can't let the party that many comrades have bought with their lives just fall in our hands......" Song Jiaoren also persuaded.

At this time, the life of the Kuomintang was very difficult, and it was even more difficult than the most embarrassing time in history. Since the defeat of the Kuomintang in the war with the Kuomintang, the strength of the entire party has plummeted. In particular, the Kuomintang government announced the banning of the Kuomintang a few days ago, which dealt them a fatal blow.

Now the more than 10 provinces that have been controlled by the Kuomintang government are not mentioned for the time being, and the other remaining provinces, regardless of their views on the Kuomintang, are unwilling to offend Yan Shao at this time, and they are naturally very hard working on this matter.

In particular, people like Cai Yi, who claim to be professional soldiers, would not have liked an organization like the Kuomintang with a strong party nature, otherwise he would not have sent Tang Jiyao to Guizhou to suppress Zhang Bolin and others. During the Second Revolution, troops were sent into Sichuan to suppress Xiong Kewu—————— although Zhang Bolin and others in Guizhou were revolutionary parties, they had a very strong party nature. Many of the so-called revolutionary parties are gang members at all, when Liu Xianshi entered Guizhou, he wondered how Guizhou was taken down by such a group of guys, and later Cai Yi would let Tang Jiyao enter Guizhou because there was some kind of prejudice against the party, and later someone ran to him to state the facts, and he understood, but at that time Tang Jiyao's ambition had swelled to the point that he couldn't suppress it...

The Kuomintang government's announcement of the banning of the Kuomintang dealt a great blow to the Kuomintang, and the Kuomintang government later took the opportunity of reorganizing the troops in the provinces to remove those Kuomintang elements from the army.

This series of moves immediately caused a lot of harm to the Kuomintang.

Coupled with the outstanding achievements of the Kuomintang government during this period of time, not to mention the gentry class, even the ordinary people have no nostalgia for the Kuomintang.

Today, the KMT's strength on the mainland has almost been lost, and only in Southeast Asia, Japan, and the United States still retains some strength, but as the KMT has become an illegal organization, the KMT's influence in these regions is gradually fading.

Especially in recent times, even the Black Dragon Society, which had a very close relationship with the Kuomintang, has not come to the door very much, obviously because the Kuomintang has no use value for them.

In the view of Song Jiaoren and Huang Xing, if they do not want to take some measures, I am afraid that soon the KMT, like many parties that emerged after the liberation, will gradually disappear into the long river of history, and eventually become a row of words in the history books, and considering the bad relationship between the KMT and the Kuomintang Socialist Party, it is difficult to say how it will be evaluated in the history books in the future.

In the final analysis, the Kuomintang is a Chinese organization after all, and it can only survive where there are Chinese people. Many overseas Chinese in later generations are more ruthless than other countries to China, and even hope that China will die soon, and all Chinese will die, but at this time overseas Chinese all have a childish heart. If it weren't for this, he would not have returned to China to help during the Anti-Japanese War, regardless of his life.

Because of this, many things in the country also have a great impact on them.

This can be seen from some places, the original Manchu government was certainly a Tatar government. But there are still many elderly people abroad who see it as the legitimate government. At this time, the Kuomintang government had been established, and a substantial reunification had been reached with China, and the people's hearts were almost all towards the Kuomintang government, so it is not difficult to guess how overseas Chinese would choose in this case.

Just as Song Jiaoren and others feared, if they don't think of any more solutions, I am afraid that the Kuomintang will disappear completely.

So he, Huang Xing and a few others came up with a solution, which was to reconcile with the National Socialist Party.

Nor do they want to continue to hold the positions of power they once held in China. I just hope that it will continue to exist as a political party in China, so that at least the party that was built by the comrades who shed blood and sacrificed for the revolution in the past will not be defeated at their hands...

However, after coming up with this idea, Song Jiaoren and the others had just said a few words about this matter before they were strongly opposed by Sun Yat-sen.

"Yat-sen..."

looked at Sun Yat-sen's red eyes. Song Jiaoren and Huang Xing persuaded in unison.

It was precisely because he would oppose Zhilu Dao that there were only two people in the office at this time, Song Jiaoren and Huang Xing.

However, in the face of the persuasion of the two, Sun Yat-sen was unwilling to let go no matter what.

Seeing this, Song Jiaoren and Huang Xing let out a long sigh. He could only retreat from Sun Yat-sen's office.

"Yat-sen. You should think about it, everything must be based on the overall situation...", Song Jiaoren closed the door tightly.

"Smack!"

After Huang Xing and Song Jiaoren withdrew from the room, Sun Yat-sen grabbed the pen holder on the table and slammed it on the ground. The porcelain pen holder fell to the ground and became dozens of pieces scattered all over the ground, but Sun Yat-sen grabbed a few objects from the table and threw them on the ground as if he was puzzled, and only after falling several things in a row did he sit down on the seat as if exhausted.

"I would never agree...", clenching his fists. Sun Yat-sen gritted his teeth.

In a stack of newspapers in the corner of the office, one of the newspapers was revealed somehow. It's just crumpled, like it's often treated violently. And in this newspaper, there are photos of Kaoru Otsuki, Yan Shao and Eleno talking and laughing...

————————————————————

Listening to the sound of smashing things in the office, Song Jiaoren and Huang Xing both sighed.

Of course, they knew that Sun Yat-sen would strongly oppose this matter, not only because the Kuomintang led by Yan Shao defeated the Kuomintang and drove them from the mainland to Japan, but also because of the woman named Kaoru Otsuki...

When she was first in Yan Shao's house, Kaoru Otsuki's mother and daughter did live in seclusion, but as time went by, especially after Kaoru Otsuki began to help Elano deal with some business matters some time ago, her exposure rate skyrocketed.

And in the past 4 years, Yan Shao and others have also regarded Kaoru Otsuki and Fumiko as family members, and often take them out with them when they usually go in and out, which can be regarded as indirectly increasing the exposure of the two.

At the beginning, this was naturally nothing, but after Yan Shao became president, the number of people naturally began to increase, and soon a few photos of Kaoru Otsuki's mother and daughter and Yan Shao's 'family photos' were taken and published on the cover of the newspaper.

Kaoru Otsuki and Fumiko have lived with Yan Shao for more than 3 years, and everyone thinks of her as Yan Shao's woman, and the photo is naturally described by the newspaper as 'Yan Shao and his wives'...

Of course, if this is all the case, it would be forgotten, the problem is that the Kuomintang and the Kuomintang are hostile, and naturally some information about the Kuomintang has to be collected diligently, and this newspaper has naturally been collected on the desk of Sun Yat-sen and others.

Considering Sun Yat-sen's image, the matter of Otsuki Kaoru is not public in the Kuomintang, but there are many people who know about it, not to mention anything else, at least the original introducer is Zhilu Dao, so Sun Yat-sen also followed Zhilu to talk about it.

When Sun Yat-sen saw the photo of Kaoru Otsuki and Yan Shao talking and laughing, he was so angry that he almost gritted his teeth. In history, he first abandoned Da Yue Xun, then abandoned Chen Cuifen, and then abandoned his original partner Lu Muzhen, and married Song a month after his divorce from Lu Muzhen, in fact, if Sun Yat-sen hadn't died early, I'm afraid even Song might not have been abandoned—————— of course, the Song family is not easy to mess with, so it's hard to say.

The problem is here, in history, only Sun Yat-sen abandoned others, how can others have the opportunity to abandon him? By the way, at this time, he has not abandoned Chen Cuifen and them, nor has he replied to the divorce agreement of Kaoru Otsuki, so he has always regarded Kaoru Otsuki as his own woman, even if he has never paid attention to Kaoru Otsuki's mother and daughter for many years...

Who knew that at this time, he saw a fiery photo of Da Yue Xun and Yan Shao fighting, how could he not be angry?! Especially after thinking that these two people didn't know how many things Lu Dao had done, he was even more furious.

As men, Song Jiaoren and Huang Xing also understand Sun Yat-sen's feelings very well, but now that the Kuomintang has reached the critical moment of life and death, it is absolutely impossible to be emotional, and everything must focus on the overall situation—————— of course, this is somewhat standing and talking without back pain...

In any case, they still persuaded Sun Yat-sen to find a way to reconcile with Yan Shao, but this was something that Sun Yat-sen would never agree, and the two sides were also deadlocked on this issue.

————————————————————

"Alas...," Song Jiaoren sighed. I don't know when Yi Xian will be able to see it..."

"Look away..."Huang Xing smiled bitterly. It's not that easy to see..."

At this time, Sun Yat-sen had not abandoned Chen Cuifen and them, nor did he scold Huang Xing for the failure of the second revolution, so the relationship between them was still good...

But just when the two of them were smiling bitterly there, someone outside suddenly brought a newspaper to them, looking at the content of this newspaper Huang Xing and Song Jiaoren glanced at each other, and suddenly felt that this seemed to be an opportunity... (To be continued......)
