It is Kokang and Changchun

　"いただきます(I'm starting)!"

　As soon as he finished speaking, the sounds of dishes and chopsticks clinking and chewing on the dining table alternated and continued.

　During the entire process of the Emperor and his family's meal, the restaurant manager not far away was observing them out of the corner of his eye, glancing towards where the Emperor and his family were dining from time to time.

　After the emperor and his family finished drinking the miso soup, the waiter's expression relaxed a little.

　Finishing the soup also means that the meal is almost over. The sounds of clinking dishes and chopsticks and chewing become less frequent and soon stop.

　"ごChizao様でした(I'm full)!"

　After the Emperor and his family signaled they were done with their meal, the restaurant manager sent a communication to the Imperial Household Agency, reporting the situation and escorting them out of the restaurant according to protocol. As soon as the Emperor and his family left, the Daizenke staff arrived at the table and cleared away any leftovers.

　In the Prime Minister's Office, Fumio Kishida had just started his dinner. He had just finished his fourth piece of salmon and his third mouthful of rice when his meal was interrupted by a report from his staff.

　"Mr. Kishida, His Majesty has finished his meal, including the drugged soup. Of course, the dosage of the drugs was strictly controlled and would not harm the health of His Majesty and his family.

　If the medicine is effective, it will take effect after His Majesty goes to bed. Then, as long as we carefully take the Emperor and his family with us, we can move to Okinawa."

　Kishida sighed and said, "If there is no other choice, and I really don't want to resort to this desperate measure, then this is the only way..."

　To give himself some comfort, Kishida said to himself: "Your Majesty, please forgive my abruptness, but for the future of Japan, I have to do it. But please rest assured, I will not endanger your health and safety."

　After comforting himself, Kishida looked down at the food in front of him and couldn't help but think of a famous Western oil painting, "The Last Supper..."

　Just as Kishida was thinking this, he immediately denied his idea, "Bullshit! What last supper?! Shenhai will definitely help us fight against communism and save the country. Miss 690 is still waiting for us on Okinawa Island!"

　Thinking of this, Kishida continued to pick up his bowl and ate with peace of mind, "Even if this is my last dinner, it will be my last dinner in this country this year, and it will definitely not be my last dinner in this country in my lifetime!"

　The Emperor and his family went to bed earlier than usual today. After the Imperial Household Agency confirmed that the Emperor was soundly asleep, they carefully transferred the Emperor and his family to the car, then took them to the military airport and put them on the plane, where they were ready to take off for the "strategic shift" to Okinawa with Kishida and other members of the Liberal Democratic Party.

　---------------

　The next morning, Ibaraki Hanasugi had just finished washing up and had no time to eat breakfast when he received the news that Liberal Democratic Party leader Fumio Kishida had stepped down and Yoshihide Suga had taken over.

　Ibaraki Hanafu thought about it, laughed out loud, and said, "This time, Kishida is trying to pass on the blame. If I'm not mistaken, Kishida should have gone to Okinawa now.

　It's like searching for a needle in a haystack, yet finding it without any effort. I had thought the LDP would resist to the end, but now that the Kishida cabinet has run away, will Suga Yoshihide, who has inherited the mess, continue to resist? Suga is not the type to hold out.

　Now, as long as we continue to apply appropriate pressure, and if verbal pressure doesn't work, then military pressure, Suga Yoshihide will definitely surrender. If he doesn't surrender, I, Ibaraki Hanafu, will follow the example of Lu Lai Buddha and eat the computer screen!

　"Comrade Chairman, I understand the logic, but I don't quite understand the last sentence..." Facing Ibaraki Hanasou's words, Nakano Hiroharu really couldn't understand what the last sentence was saying.

　"It's okay, that's a joke from the early days of the Chinese internet... You can just understand it as if Suga Yoshihide doesn't surrender, I will do things that I hate to do and can't do," Ibaraki Hanasu explained.

　This made Nakano Hiroshi admire Ibaraki Hanafu even more. He thought to himself, "Wow, Chairman Ibaraki knows so much about China that he can even use old internet memes with ease. He must be the ultimate China expert, right?"

　Therefore, under the arrangement of Ibaraki Hanasou, the Japanese Communist Party simultaneously shouted at and put pressure on Suga Yoshihide with force. As a result, less than half a day later, Suga Yoshihide announced that the Self-Defense Forces in Tokyo would stop resisting and formally surrender to the Japanese Communist Party.

　At this point, Tokyo was peacefully liberated, and the People's Revolutionary Army began to accept the surrender of the Self-Defense Forces on the front line, disarmed them, disbanded their troops, and classified and dealt with these Self-Defense Force officers and soldiers according to their ideological attitudes.

　For example, soldiers who had no interest in politics or the military were simply drafted in to fill the ranks. The Japanese Communist Party would give them travel expenses and allow them to return home now or wait until their hometowns were liberated.

　Some people who have a favorable impression of the Communist Party

　, they were dispersed and incorporated into the revolutionary army, and were promised that if they performed well in the future, they would have the opportunity to become non-commissioned officers or even be promoted to officers like the existing revolutionary army soldiers.

　As for the remaining people who generally hold an anti-communist stance, those who can be reformed through labor will be reformed. Those whose reform is not obvious or cannot be reformed will be dismissed and returned to society, and their rights to join the military and engage in politics will be revoked.

　Before entering the city, the Central Military Commission of the Japanese Communist Party repeatedly emphasized that all units must manage the discipline of every soldier entering the city, and commanders at all levels must constantly examine themselves, be upright from top to bottom, and set an example as role models.

　After the People's Revolutionary Army entered the city, many people felt uneasy. Some simply stayed away, some shops even closed their doors, and some brave group leaders dared to watch, but their eyes were full of doubts.

　It can be said that there were people holding pots and drinking water, cheering loudly to welcome Master Hong. Among the hundred people in the crowd, you might not even see seven or eight of them.

　Although they hate the Liberal Democratic Party, the ideology of the majority of people who have lived in capitalist society for a long time and the Liberal Democratic Party’s repeated anti-communist propaganda during this period have determined that most of them will not like the Communist Party much because they hate the Liberal Democratic Party.

　For this reason, the Japanese Communist Party's Central Military Commission placed even greater emphasis on discipline for the People's Revolutionary Army after they entered Tokyo, demanding that every member of the army be extremely vigilant. Otherwise, the Japanese Communist Party would not be able to gain a strong foothold in Tokyo.

　However, social history always has its inertia (whether good or bad), and in this era when the old and the new are about to replace each other, some things are still difficult to avoid.

　A revolutionary soldier encountered an unpleasant incident while he was out.

　"Okay, it's finally time to change shifts. It's so hot today." After finishing his shift, a soldier prepared to buy some drinks to quench his thirst.

　As he turned a corner, he spotted a Mixue Ice City across the street. "Hey, I'm so lucky! I just needed to quench my thirst and I found a cheap and good cold drink shop. How do Chinese people make cold drinks so cheap?"

　Thinking of this, the soldier came to the Mixue Ice City store and said to the owner, "Boss, I'd like a cup of glutinous lemon tea, 30% sugar, room temperature."

　This warrior is an old 2D fan. When I was surfing the Internet before, I heard that the aftertaste of glutinous lemon tea in China is very famous. This time I accidentally discovered that there is also glutinous lemon tea in Tokyo, so I ordered it with the mentality of giving it a try.

　Anyway, if there is any smell, just treat it as the smell of Akafuyu's (Arknights character) wife's jade feet!

　The shop owner who was playing with his mobile phone saw someone coming to order something. He looked up with joy on his face, but when he saw that it was a soldier from the revolutionary army, his face instantly turned stern.

　"Judging from your accent, are you from Kansai?"

　The revolutionary soldier said, "Yes, my hometown is in Nara Prefecture. What's wrong?"

　"Nothing," the boss reluctantly stood up and went to mix drinks for the revolutionary soldiers, muttering, "Is this stinky Kansai bastard coming to Kanto to beg for food?"

　The soldier happened to have good hearing and overheard the boss's mumbling. He demanded, "No, what do you mean? Are you looking down on me? What did the Guanxi people do to you?!"

　The boss was furious at the shouting and retorted, "Am I wrong? Isn't it just begging? Communism is a thing for poor places. Doesn't it suit your poor Kansai very well?"

　"Fuck!" The soldier was quite impatient and could not stand this unwarranted anger, especially since the shop owner was even dissing communism. He tried to argue with the shop owner.

　You can choose not to drink, but you must fight for your dignity.

　The two sides argued for a long time, and finally the revolutionary soldier took a step back. Halfway through the argument, he suddenly remembered that the Japanese Communist Party had just entered the city, and some things had to be compromised. Taking a step back would win people's hearts, and then he immediately stopped talking.

　But it was too late to shut up. Some onlookers had already filmed the video and posted it on the Internet, which attracted the attention of the Japanese Communist Party officials and the revolutionary army.

　In the end, the official response was to impose fifty lashes on each soldier. First, the boss who discriminated against the soldiers based on their region had to apologize to them, and then the soldiers who spoke to the crowd inappropriately had to apologize to the boss.

　Then, the soldiers were criticized and educated on their words and work methods when dealing with the masses, and on not being impatient and impatient. Then, the bosses were criticized and educated on their regional discrimination and their misunderstanding of communism.

　The above incident is just one of the small episodes after the Japanese Communist Party took control of Tokyo. This small example illustrates two problems: one is the working methods of some soldiers and cadres towards the masses, and the other is the wrong views of some people towards the party and the government.

　In the subsequent Politburo meeting of the Central Committee, Ibaraki Hanasu compared the entry into Tokyo with the historical entry of the Chinese Communist Party into Beijing, likening it to going to Beijing to take an imperial examination.

　Although Japan's imperial examination system failed to persist in history due to the rise of aristocratic politics and became a mere formality after the 11th century, this does not hinder everyone's understanding of this metaphor.

　As Japan's largest and most international city, Tokyo has complex and intertwined interests that cannot be compared with Osaka.

　The administration in Osaka during this period did indeed provide some preliminary preparations for the JCP's entry into Tokyo. But this was not enough; the JCP's leading cadres still needed to face further new challenges in Tokyo.

　For this reason, many colleagues from the Osaka City Committee and City Hall were included in the newly established Tokyo City Committee and City Hall of the Japanese Communist Party.

　The purpose of these arrangements is to help them adapt more quickly and better to party and government work in Tokyo and to reduce detours in their work.

　Chapter 445: Fire Burns War Criminal Card

　Among the many tasks of the Japanese Communist Party in its "entry into Beijing for examination," the one that attracted the most attention from neighboring countries and even the world was its cultural work, because it involved the attitude towards the treatment of a notorious shrine.

　The result of the discussion held by the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Japanese Communist Party was to thoroughly overhaul the Yasukuni Shrine, eradicate all reactionary elements related to militarism, and rectify all the distorted and downplayed descriptions of the war of aggression contained therein.

　When the above work is completed, the Yasukuni Shrine will be transformed into a museum of war crimes, exhibiting evidence of all Japan's foreign wars of aggression and crimes since modern times, and educating the public on the wrongness of this series of wars.

　At the same time, the Yasukuni Shrine retains its role in worshipping people, but the objects of worship only include those who have made significant contributions to the progress of Japanese social history since modern times, as well as Japanese civilians who died in various wars, but do not include soldiers and officers who participated in wars of aggression.

　When the results were made public, most people inside and outside Japan roared with support. Among the remaining minority, some felt the corrections were incomplete, while others felt the JCP had gone too far.

　Those who believe the reforms are incomplete mainly come from some people in China and North Korea. They believe that the Yasukuni Shrine has been a crime from the beginning and should be demolished like a factory cooling tower, leaving nothing behind.

　Most of those who think the Japanese Communist Party is extreme are former members of the Liberal Democratic Party and some Japanese citizens. They think that at most the war criminal sign should be removed and disposed of, and that such a big fuss will be enough.

　How should the Yasukuni Shrine be handled? Is the Japanese Communist Party's approach reasonable? Or is it insufficient? To begin, we must analyze the Yasukuni Shrine itself.

　The Yasukuni Shrine was not originally established for war criminals. It was originally established to commemorate the anti-shogunate patriots who died in the anti-shogunate movement. Later, it gradually became a shrine to enshrine the souls of those who died in wars and incidents during Japan's modernization process.

　It is not difficult to see from this that the Yasukuni Shrine enshrines war criminals because in the eyes of the Liberal Democratic Party government, these war criminals are "national historical heroes" and those who died in the war, so they were sent to the Yasukuni Shrine.

　At the same time, the objects of worship at the Yasukuni Shrine have been further expanded to include a large number of civilians who died in US air raids at the end of World War II. Therefore, the Japanese people have very complicated views on the Yasukuni Shrine.

　Most Japanese people, although they acknowledge the war crimes of Japanese militarism, do not have any aversion to the Yasukuni Shrine itself.

　In addition to the reason mentioned above that the Yasukuni Shrine was not established specifically for war criminals, Japan's traditional culture also has a great influence on the public's perception of this.

　In traditional Japanese culture, there's a belief that no matter what a person did in life, they become "gods" after death and should be forgiven. This belief not only influences many Japanese people but also forms a crucial cultural foundation for conservative political forces' reluctance to confront and reflect on history.

　To sum up, the Japanese Communist Party’s handling of the shrine is actually very pertinent. It cleanses the root of the problem without being extreme.

　As for traditional culture, isn't it normal for a socialist regime to transform backward traditional culture, discarding its dross and retaining its essence? Look at how modern China has done it.

　The renovation of the Yasukuni Shrine had already been fully discussed and decided by the Central Political Bureau before the Japanese Communist Party entered Tokyo; this made the renovation of the Yasukuni Shrine one of the earliest and most important things the Japanese Communist Party did after entering Tokyo.

　In order to ensure the objectivity and fairness of the reform, the Japanese Communist Party not only had its official media broadcast the entire reform process live, but also invited media from all walks of life, as well as media from China and North Korea, to come to the scene to witness this historic progress.

　For both China and North Korea, such a thing would have been unthinkable in the past. On the designated day, CCTV reporters stationed in Japan rushed to the entrance of the Yasukuni Shrine early in the morning, cameras and microphones in hand, to prepare or gather firsthand news.

　"Wow, there is no colleague here at the moment. It seems that we are indeed the first to arrive. This time we can definitely grab the best camera position." CCTV photographers and reporters couldn't help but sigh when they saw that there were no other reporters around.

　"There's an old Chinese saying, 'There are always people better than you, and there are always mountains better than you.' I'm saying, would you two like to take a look around?" A female voice suddenly came from not far away.

　The CCTV reporter and photographer suddenly turned around and found a young female reporter walking out of the surrounding woods and smiling at them.

　"Are you...?" The CCTV reporter was a little confused about this sudden colleague, mainly about the time.

　"I forgot to introduce myself. As you can see, I am also a reporter, here to record the historic moment." The female reporter who came out of the woods picked up the digital camera hanging on her chest and introduced herself.

　The CCTV reporter smiled and responded, "That's quite a coincidence. When did you come here to wait?"

　"Just a few minutes earlier than you." said the female reporter.

　"Xiao Li, you..." The CCTV reporter called out to the photographer, only to find that he looked a little strange, as if he was staring at the Japanese reporter in a daze. He suddenly slapped the photographer, "Hey, what are you looking at?"

　Photographer Xiao Li was snapped back to his senses by the photo. "No...it's okay, I was just

　I was amazed at how hard this Japanese reporter worked and how he arrived earlier than us..."

　The CCTV reporter gave Xiao Li a look that said, "Do you think I believe this?" He thought to himself, "Good fellow, you can't even walk when you see a beautiful woman, right? You'll be dead to me when we get back!"

　Finally, the two sides chatted with each other. In addition to their views on the Yasukuni Shrine and the war of aggression, they also exchanged experiences in other work areas.

　During the conversation, the CCTV reporter felt that the Japanese reporter's knowledge level and world outlook were truly remarkable, especially his profound understanding of Japan's criminal history, which made her feel ashamed of herself.

　Finally, the reporter decided to make friends with the Japanese reporter and asked, "By the way, we've been chatting for so long, but I still don't know what to call you?"

　"Oh, my friends usually call me Wenwen, you can just call me 'Wen'." said Yumemimaru Wen.

　The sun quietly jumped out of the horizon and rose higher. When it was 9 a.m. Tokyo time, the staff who were ordered by the Tokyo People's City Hall to handle the Yasukuni Shrine began to walk into the torii gate one after another and started to clean the shrine.

　After a while, three staff members came over with a metal brazier the size of a bathtub. When the brazier was put down, another staff member nearby added wood to the brazier.

　Seeing this, the CCTV reporter asked the photographer Xiao Li to adjust the camera position, and he walked in front of the camera with the microphone and broadcast the report:

　"I am currently at the gate of the Yasukuni Shrine in Tokyo, Japan. The Japanese Communist Party is currently sending personnel to overhaul the interior of the shrine. This means that the crimes that have been hidden for many years will be made public today and thoroughly cleansed.

　According to relevant personnel, the brazier now placed in front of the Torii gate is used to burn the tablets of war criminals of all levels during World War II, and to declare to the public that Japan has officially distanced itself from its past sinister history..."

　As the CCTV reporter excitedly reported, a van drove out of the Yasukuni Shrine. The people in the van got out and took out a large box and a folding table from the trunk, placing them not far from the brazier.

　At this time, a staff member next to the brazier took out a bucket of gasoline, poured it into the firewood pile in the brazier, and then lit the brazier with fire.

　Then the people in the car opened the box, and inside were tablets of war criminals of all levels. They took out these rankings, placed them on the table, and showed them to every reporter and bystander at the scene.

　After a brief display, the staff scattered the tablets randomly on the ground. Then one of them, holding an axe in both hands, half-crouched down and chopped the tablets one by one into pieces, leaving them unrecognizable.

　Finally, all the chopped tablets were thrown into the brazier. These sinful tablets gradually carbonized and burned in the blazing flames, which attracted applause from Chinese and North Korean reporters, onlookers, and North Koreans (formerly from South Korea) at the scene.

　"Alright, that's it! This is the final fate of you cruel beasts! This raging fire is the wrath of all the victims of war. You deserve death!"

　"These war criminals are being treated so leniently. This fire should have burned their bodies before they died! Now all that's left is a memorial tablet. How can they feel any pain?"

　"Burning the memorial tablets isn't enough! I want to see the ashes of these war criminals thrown into the basin, box and ashes included!"

　"Is it possible that the war criminals' ashes are somewhere else and that the Japanese Communist Party has already cremated them? It's just that you've been under a news blackout in the LDP-ruled area, so you didn't know about this news."

　While CCTV reporters used various words to describe the scene of the fire burning the memorial tablet, photographer Xiao Li kept taking long-focus close-ups of the scene to record it truthfully.

　The live broadcast images are transmitted back to CCTV headquarters via radio signals, and then spread across China through wired or wireless networks and radio and television signals.

　The live broadcast of the burning of the war criminals' tablets pushed the number of visits to the live broadcast rooms of CCTV's major platforms to a record high. The chat rooms and barrage of comments were filled with loud cheers, and all kinds of likes and gifts were endless on the screen.

　"Fuck, the Japanese Communist Party even dared to burn the tablets of war criminals. They are so tough after becoming the ruling party and controlling the military. They even dared to do such a thing. I completely believe in the thoroughness of the Japanese Communist Party's reflection and admission of mistakes." This is the reaction of the vast majority of Chinese netizens.

　"Who knows if what's being burned is a fake? Maybe the real tablet was secretly put away and placed behind the public's back after the show is over." Of course, there will always be a small number of strange remarks among the mainstream voices.

　But generally speaking, this incident has caused a huge shock around the world, especially in East Asia. There is a Chinese idiom called "endless troubles", and here, it can be said that the Japanese Communist Party's act of burning the memorial tablets has "endless benefits".

　Although it angered a large number of right-wing reactionaries in the country, it won the fundamental change in the understanding and attitude of domestic left-wing figures, righteous people, and other East Asian countries from the official to the public towards Japan.
