With the right development strategy, a large amount of financial support, and the repeated defeats of the Japanese army on the battlefield of aggression against China (the worse the loss, the higher the anti-war and war-weariness sentiment in Japan, and the difficulty of the Japanese Communist Party to develop the organization will continue to decrease. By the end of 1938, the total number of party members had exceeded 100,000, and Japan was forced to greatly expand its army because of the huge casualties on the battlefield of aggression against China, and the examination was far less strict than before, and the current members of the Japanese Communist Party were mainly young people, so they seized the opportunity to fish in troubled waters, and as a result, there were no less than 10,000 members of the Japanese Communist Party among the 1.5 million recruits incorporated into the army, and the more recruits (generally means weak combat effectiveness), the higher the proportion of troops. Hu Weidong's layout before the outbreak of the all-out war of resistance finally saw results

Most of the 20,000 Japanese troops in Bengbu are just such troops, although under normal circumstances, relying on a few hundred Japanese communists in the army alone will not make any waves, and they do not dare to take the initiative to provoke trouble and expose themselves, but when the Japanese attack on a large scale, these hundreds of people were enough to pit their 20,000 "comrades-in-arms" to death. How can this morale be sustained?

In addition, it is worth mentioning that during this period of time, Shiraishi Tomohisa, who was already resourceful, not only improved his military skills day by day, but also deepened his understanding of communist ideas, and in order to facilitate the acceptance of the Japanese, especially the Japanese soldiers, he took a certain political risk to ask Hu Weidong whether he could integrate some of Kita Kazuki's ideas, which had a great influence in Japan, into it, and used his banner to propagate it to Japan. If it were another leader, he would definitely not agree with Shiraishi Tomohisa's whimsy, and might even think that Shiraishi Tomohisa could not be trusted. However, Hu Weidong, as a time-traveler with the ability to think independently, has a deep understanding of a series of ideas put forward by Kita Yihui that is far ahead of the times, and he knows very well that this controversial figure in Japanese history has objectively prompted Japan to embark on the road of further aggression and expansion. But that was only used by the Japanese military department, and his thoughts, especially the early ones themselves, were actually more inclined to the left wing than to the right wing, as later historians "commented", and nothing else. The opposition to the imperial system (Note 1), the overthrow of the zaibatsu warlords, the abolition of hierarchies, and the suppression of the divide between the rich and the poor cannot simply be said to be right-wing conservative ideas.

Even when he was young, Kita Ikki believed that the implementation of the socialist revolution in Japan would inevitably encounter many obstacles, and that it was better to focus on the Chinese revolution first and wait for the success of the Chinese revolution. Promote the revolutionary situation throughout Asia, and then return to Japan to promote the revolution (at that time, there were far more young Japanese people who held this idea, and this was where China could take advantage of it. ）。 For this reason, he came to China to participate in the revolution for 13 years, but due to the gradual rise of anti-Japanese sentiment in China and the rapid degeneration of the Chinese Revolutionary Party, he was completely disillusioned with the prospect of China's leadership in Asia, and he was forced to leave China and return to Japan.

The same was true of the "226 Mutiny" under the banner of his ideology, and because of the failure of the mutiny, Kita Ichiki's progressive ideas such as advocating the overthrow of the warlords and chaebols had no hope of being realized. The treatment and situation of the Japanese officers and men at the grassroots level did not improve, but on the contrary, the Japanese military headquarters that he wanted to overthrow consolidated and strengthened the military dictatorship. At that time, Japan would also embark on the path of brutal internal oppression and external aggression and expansion. This is in fact the same as the example of the collapse of the Soviet Union, which used the so-called "popular will" to collapse and disintegrate, but the wealth of the country was divided up by the original bureaucracy and foreign capital, while the common people only suffered from it

Even in Hu Weidong's view, even the later thinking of Bei Yihui that has partially degenerated is not completely without merit, taking his Greater Asianism for Japan's aggression and expansion as an example, when Japan is stronger than China, it will indeed become the theoretical basis for Japan's aggression against China, but as long as the strength of China and Japan is reversed, this idea will become a powerful ideological weapon for China to control Japan in the future, and China can also use it as a theoretical basis to "liberate" the Western colonies in Asia

Of course, the obvious mistakes of Bei Yihui's thinking still need to be resolutely discarded, such as his admiration of assassination methods but not attention to mobilizing the masses, these two points are the key to his ultimate defeat in Hu Weidong's view. If the Japanese Communist Party wants to make great progress and subvert the Japanese fascist regime from within, it absolutely cannot follow its old path.

However, although Hu Weidong felt that Bei Yihui's thoughts, especially his early thoughts, could be used, such a major matter was far from being something he could decide, let alone him, and even Zhang Hao, secretary of the Central Plains Bureau, who is now a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee, did not dare to make decisions on his own, but had to report to the Central Committee for discussion. Anyway, he would not be stupid enough to propagate this idea among the Chinese military and civilians, but just use it to fool the Japanese devils

Although it has been more than a year since Kita Ichiki was executed by the Japanese government, there are still many admirers and sympathizers in Japan, especially among the grassroots officers and soldiers of the Japanese Army, even the emperor is not as good as the emperor, so after Hu Weidong allowed the new idea of hanging the sheep's head of Kita Ichiki among the Japanese and even the captured Japanese army, he immediately received a miraculous effect far beyond imagination, and later statistics showed that the speed of the 15th Group Army's conversion of Japanese prisoners of war was more than double that of before, and the conversion rate was unprecedentedly more than 50 percent. It must be known that these fifty percent are not just obedient, but the proportion of those who are willing to take up arms to fight against the Japanese warlords, and if Hu Weidong is willing, he can even expand the Japanese column to more than 100,000. Of course, Hu Weidong is not so stupid, for Japanese prisoners of war, it is okay to use it, but if it exceeds the limit of what he can easily suppress, it is playing with fire

Note 1: Kita Kazuki was a strong advocate of abolishing the emperor system as a young man, but when he discovered that the vast majority of Japanese people were still superstitious about the emperor, he was forced to abandon this idea and fantasize about using the emperor's prestige to achieve several other ideals, and it was from this that he began to doom him to failure.
