Hirohito finally "overcame public opinion" and came up with a speech in support of the Japanese socialist revolution. He applied to the People's Party and wanted to shout out to Japan through the channels of the People's Party.

After reading it, Chen Ke remembered that after the end of World War II, the United States wanted to formulate a new constitution for Japan. At first, the United States was quite polite, and after letting the Japanese revise it themselves, the United States felt that it was almost done, so it passed. Unexpectedly, in the new constitution presented by the Japanese, a few modifying adjectives were changed, and the content of the constitution was not changed at all.

This time there was no change, Hirohito's thinking was not to support the socialist revolution at all, but to support Hirohito's restoration of supreme power. In his speech, Hirohito said that if he regained all supreme adjudication powers, including the legislative, executive, and judicial powers, he could consider acknowledging much of the legitimacy of the Showa Restoration.

"What does this guy think Bei Yihui sent them to me for?" Chen Ke couldn't help but ask Shang Yuan.

Shang Yuan really didn't know what to say after reading it, and originally thought that Chen Ke's plan to destroy Japan like the destruction of the world was quite scary to watch. After reading Hirohito's speech, Shang Yuan suddenly felt that it was not very unacceptable to use this method to destroy the upper echelons of Japan, including Hirohito.

But this fashion is far from being ruthless, he smiled and said: "Wen Qing, what you originally meant was to casually perfunctory Hirohito, and send him back to Japan to continue to be confined." Why are you starting to be interested in him again? ”

Chen Ke was a little helpless, "I knew that he was this kind of good, and I didn't want to ask for trouble." But now that I've intervened, I can't mess with it anymore. If I were perfunctory about this, what would Comrade Kita Yihui think? ”

Shang Yuan joked, "Comrade Bei Yihui may think that we are interfering in the internal affairs of other countries, right?" ”

Chen Ke replied: "At this time, let's say that we will not interfere in the internal affairs of other countries, and no one will believe this." In that case, give it a try. ”

"How about trying one?" Shang Yuan felt that Chen Ke was only afraid of having some thoughts of his own.

Chen Ke took out a piece of paper and handed it to Shang Yuan, and wrote a paragraph on it:

Article 1:

The Emperor is the symbol of the Japanese nation and the Japanese people as a whole, and his status is based on the will of all Japanese people, where sovereignty lies.

Article 2:

The throne is hereditary and inherits according to the provisions of the royal model decided by the National Assembly.

Article 3:

All acts of the Emperor in relation to state affairs must be recommended and approved by the Cabinet, for which the Cabinet is responsible.

Article 4:

(1) The Emperor shall exercise only the acts of state prescribed by this Constitution, and shall not have any power in relation to state affairs.

(2) The Emperor may appoint acts of state in accordance with the provisions of the law.

……

After reading it, Shang Yuan asked Chen Ke with a little crying and laughing, "Are you ready to let Hirohito accept this kind of constitution?" ”

Chen Ke replied slowly: "Judging from the current situation, Hirohito will have to recognize this constitution sooner or later. Rather than having someone else release it and forcing Hirohito to admit it, it is better to let Hirohito proclaim it himself. It's good for everyone, and if Hirohito makes this decision himself, we can even help him. What he cared about was not to abolish the emperor system, and not to limit the emperor's power too much. We did it for him. If it can be done, Comrade Kita Yihui will also be happy. ”

"Who do you want to be lobbyists?" Shang Yuan asked as he continued to look at the documents.

"Comrade Zhuo Xiansheng, Secretary of the Hebei Provincial Party Committee, what do you think? When this comrade was presiding over land reform in Taiwan, he did quite an excellent job. When fighting the landlord, the principle is very firm, and the wrist is also very high. ”

Shang Yuan put down the document, "I haven't been in direct contact with government affairs for a long time, and these comrades know very little, so it's up to you to decide this matter." ”

"There's nothing special to decide, it's just that it's just a temporary transfer now. When it comes to guys like Hirohito, sometimes it's hard to make sense. Chen Ke also felt quite regretful.

Historically, Hirohito relied on the Showa warlords to hold power, but before starting World War II, this guy was worried about being liquidated after defeat, and tried to hide himself behind the scenes. After the end of World War II, he was constantly worried about his liquidation, and treated MacArthur like a eunuch serving the emperor. Three times a day in the morning, noon and evening, he bowed three times in the direction of MacArthur. This won MacArthur's favor and spared Hirohito.

During the Korean War, MacArthur lost ground and was transferred back home. He asked Hirohito to deliver him, but that day Hirohito had a "cold" and was unable to move.

Such a birdman with two ends of the first mouse, Chen Ke didn't think that he could make it clear to him by reasoning with facts. If Hirohito had really been that ambitious, he would have been able to get involved in Japanese politics in the future and gain his true status by serving the people. If this guy still wants to hide behind the scenes and control everything, then you might as well scare him. Comrade Zhuo Xiansheng, who served as secretary of the Taiwan Provincial Party Committee, actually did not have a very good "reputation," and the Taiwan landlords called him "Zhuo Yan Wang."

One of Comrade Zhuo Xiansheng's "hobbies" was to invite the landlord's family to Taipei to "travel and talk." After the landowners finished their trip and talk, the land reform in the family had been forcibly completed. For unreasonable people, or for those who do not agree with the principles of the People's Party, Comrade Zhuo Xiansheng has many methods.

Seeing that Chen Ke was very confident, Shang Yuan also agreed to hand over Hirohito to Comrade Zhuo Xiansheng to deal with.

Comrade Zhuo Xiansheng lived up to expectations, and after three days of forgetting to sleep and eat to reason with the facts, Hirohito's loyalty was shaken. By the fifth day, Hirohito had yielded loyally. When making a work report, Comrade Zhuo Xiansheng thought that he should have been able to solve the problem in the first two days. It's just that even after listening to Chen Ke's judgment of Hirohito, Comrade Zhuo Xiansheng still thinks too highly of Hirohito. This guy is still far from the stone in the pit.

Since Hirohito finally agreed to the socialist revolution, the discussion bill on the Constitution of Japan, signed in Hirohito's name, was sent out by the People's Party and circulated throughout Japan. Along with this "Constitution of Japan", Hirohito's complete affirmation of the Showa Restoration. After Kita Yihui got such support, a big stone in his heart finally put it in his stomach.

The biggest change in the new Constitution of Japan compared to the Constitution of the Empire of Japan is that the Emperor can theoretically lead the Cabinet and the Diet, but in practice any executive order must be the responsibility of the Cabinet and the Diet. Hirohito can influence the cabinet with his transcendent position, and he can even theoretically be the prime minister of the cabinet himself. However, all orders from Hirohito could only be issued in the name of the Japanese cabinet.

In other words, without Hirohito, the cabinet controlled by Kitaichita can let it go, and with Hirohito, the cabinet controlled by Kitaikki can still let go and do it. Japan's constitutional monarchy eventually became a constitutional monarchy.

For such a change, Kita Yihui naturally warmly welcomes. This is something that Kita Ikki can't let go of, and he sent Hirohito to China to ask for this result. Obviously, seeing how powerful China is behind Kita Ikki, Hirohito and the old upper class still succumbed.

As soon as Hirohito gave in, Kita Kazuki immediately began to push for the one thing he cared about the most, which was the fundamental adjustment of the Japanese military system. He completely broke down the barrier that prevented soldiers from being promoted to officers. The latest Japanese military system completely imitated China, and the soldiers were given the opportunity to be promoted. In addition to the adjustment of the length of service, at least half of the places in military school admissions are for candidates from military background. If a soldier is willing to remain in the army after the completion of his service, he can become a volunteer, that is, a technical non-commissioned officer. Or try to apply for a military school. The army is no longer a place where soldiers and officers are separated.

In the military, the status and remuneration of volunteers have also been greatly improved. Military ranks were reduced to purely military ranks, and a system of mandatory retirement was introduced. This is to sweep away redundant officials within the army, and it can be regarded as completely breaking the possibility of warlords in the army.

On February 1, 1940, along with this news, there was the great news that the Kra Canal had finally been dug up. China carried out a large-scale blasting in the mountainous area of the Kra Isthmus, and more than 100,000 Chinese engineering troops, 100,000 Japanese laborers, and more than 200,000 people made full use of tools and manpower, and finally opened this canal through the mountains.

From now on, the Chinese Navy can use Cambodia, which has been operating for a long time, as its home port, and directly enter the Indian Ocean to fight. Originally, if the navy wanted to move west, it had to go south, pass through the Strait of Malacca, and then enter the Indian Ocean. With the Kra Canal, the time required for operations was reduced by at least two days.

The Andaman Islands and the Nicobar Islands, these two enclaves, could not be handed over to Britain by China. After the completion of the naval base on this archipelago, China can be regarded as a two-ocean country in a sense.

The Chinese side has a very high opinion of the 100,000 Japanese laborers, and the attitude of the Japanese workers is very correct. After negotiating how much work to do and how much money to pay, the Japanese laborers worked hard there. At first, the Chinese side had no intention of making things difficult for Japan, but the project was so tight that everyone did not arrange labor protection supplies so quickly. As a result, by the time the first batch of labor gloves was distributed, half a month had passed since the Japanese workers received their first labor gloves. In half a month, most of the Chinese engineers have changed three or four pairs of gloves. The gloves used by the Japanese side are in tatters, but every Japanese worker still has gloves on his hands.

This incident shook the leading departments of the Chinese engineering troops, and a campaign to "learn from the Japanese workers" was launched within the engineering troops. It is necessary not only to ensure the distribution of labor protection supplies, but also to ensure the preservation of labor protection supplies. On the Chinese side, you will get it, and there will be it. In the past, there were "trade-in" plans, but they were always quite ineffective in implementation.

However, according to Japanese customs, trade-in is not just a possibility, but a completely achievable thing. Don't underestimate a pair of gloves, hundreds of thousands of people spend an extra pair of gloves every week, which is a very large expense. As for the performance of the Japanese side, the Chinese engineers can be regarded as really shocked.

This shock is on both sides, and the Japanese workers are also quite shocked by such a powerful construction machinery and such complete labor protection on the Chinese side. When you participate in excavation in Japan, you may have to take care of everything except for the tools. Regular physical examinations, medical treatment after illness, shoes, clothing, gloves, mosquito bite prevention medicine, and various tropical protection education and training. In addition, there is plenty of food, white rice, steamed buns, meat, vegetables, enough to be full, and after the meal, there are often changing kinds of after-dinner fruits. The most important thing is the "expensive" remuneration.

To the great surprise of the Japanese side, China absolutely did not allow the contractors and gangsters to withhold the wages of the workers. When the salary is paid, everyone receives it by themselves, and there is no such thing as collecting it on their behalf.

Moreover, the Japanese gangsters mixed in the labor force were also found out and disposed of by the People's Party. Unlike Japan, how dare someone blackmail laborers?! It was as if it had touched the scales of the BJP, and the blackmailers were dragged out, punched, kicked, and then tied up with ropes and shackled to be criticized. The Japanese laborers, who were originally led by Japan's own team, were soon broken up and reorganized, and China sent labor captains, and the Japanese side also elected their own captains.

Workers only have to work every day, and they don't have to worry about income. When you encounter a problem, you report it to your superiors, and although there are always delays, the problem can always be solved. In the letter from home, the laborers learned that the remittance made in the Bank of China had reached their home in full. At this moment, the hearts of the laborers completely fell back into their stomachs. The working conditions are far better than those in Japan, and they are fully paid. Since the Chinese pay the yuan, in the current depreciation of the yen, having these hard currencies in their hands is much, much better than taking the yen as a reward.

After working in China for a year, seeing the end of the project, the Japanese laborers couldn't help but send representatives to ask if there was a similar project, and if there were, they wouldn't mind working on it for another year.

War can always bring a country into a state of full employment, even in China, with a population of 800 million, after completing the first step of the southward strategy, the whole country will enter a state of full employment. 100,000 tried and tested workers are a team to be reckoned with.

In the end, another agreement was signed, and more than 20,000 Japanese laborers, who thought that they were in danger of being rich, went to Ceylon by ship for higher wages, and participated in the construction of a port in China and a local railway network in Ceylon. Another group of Japanese laborers who were willing to work for a long time went to Borneo and other places to participate in the construction of local civil engineering.

These 100,000 people have led to the trend of Japanese workers going to work in China, and a large number of Japanese laborers have joined the Chinese engineering team in the hot and humid southeastern region.

Of course, there are also some opinions on this in China. It is believed that the wages of Japanese laborers are slightly higher. Of course, their labor performance can also be worthy of such a reward. The Chinese authorities asked a question, "Do Chinese workers have pension insurance, but do Japanese people have it?" ”

This one question silences the doubters.

Since then, the exchange of labor has certainly allowed Japanese workers to earn a lot of income. As a proof of the catfish theory, the Japanese laborers, who were more serious and delicate, also made China itself suffer a lot of shocks. For example, the Japanese decoration engineering team once almost monopolized the decoration market in northern China, and the performance of Japan's logistics industry also taught Chinese counterparts a few lessons. During the period of peaceful competition, Japanese companies became in a sense mentors and friends to China.
