Volume 7 The Smoke of the Peninsula Chapter 20 The Wind Blows

On the afternoon of January 1, the "law and order riot" that occurred in Ginza, Tokyo, affected work, changed the original intention of two people, and changed the fate of one person.

In a report on TV Tokyo, it was mentioned that several plainclothes police officers had arrested a terrorist.

Before seeing the relevant reports, Zhang Xiaolong and Chen Liangyun left Tokyo and went to Utsunomiya to "take refuge". It was not the terrorist suspect who was arrested, but the homeless man "hired" by Zhang Xiaolong for 10,000 yen; It was not plainclothes police officers who appeared on the TV screen, but agents of the National Intelligence Service. Although the identities of Zhang Xiaolong and Chen Liangyun were not revealed, and no one noticed these two ordinary "office workers", thinking that the National Intelligence Agency would launch a large-scale search based on this, the two decided to temporarily leave Tokyo, a place of right and wrong, and go outside to spend a few days of leisure.

Gu Shu Liangping did not have the opportunity to live a quiet life, and the interrogation began immediately.

Before the punishment, the "offender" spoke.

The result made Gu Shu Liangping very surprised, dozens of agents were dispatched, and it turned out to be a homeless man who was captured with great fanfare!

In order to confirm that the "criminal" did not lie, the interrogation will continue for several more days. Tani Ryohei does not care about the end of the "tramp", he only cares about the purpose of the "North Korean spy".

In the evening, Tani Ryohei rushed to the Prime Minister's Office.

"North Korean spies?" Murakami immediately realized the seriousness of the problem.

"The other party claimed to be a North Korean agent, probably trying to turn against me." Tani Ryohei knows very well that he must gain the trust of the prime minister, otherwise his ending will not be much better than that homeless man. "He also said that he had my secret, and I reported the situation to Yoshida Nono as soon as possible, and then launched an arrest operation. The man has been caught, but he is not a North Korean spy, just a common homeless man on the street. ”

Murakami frowned. The look is very ugly.

"I was too ill-conceived." Tani Ryohei sighed. "The other party must be testing my attitude. will temporarily find a homeless top bag. If you can calm down. Maybe be able to catch North Korean spies. ”

"It's a trifle." Murakami Sadamasa pressed his hand. Said. "You didn't make a mistake. After all, the situation is exceptional. You can't help but think about it. The question is. How did North Korean spies get their way to contact you? ”

"This ......" Tani Ryohei deliberately showed a look of surprise. Because that's what he came to the prime minister for.

"According to you. There are only a few people who know the secret contact information. Yoshida-kun doesn't play pranks. It will not test your loyalty. ”

"There's only one possibility."

Murakami nodded and motioned for Ryohei Tani to continue.

"Koye is in the hands of North Korean intelligence, and he has explained everything."

"It's really the only possibility." Murakami Sadamasa sighed, "There is only one thing I don't understand, why did the North Korean intelligence agency secretly kidnap Takano Nachi?" ”

"This ......," Gu Shuryohi said after a pause, "perhaps the North Korean intelligence agencies have found out about our operations, and we have obtained top secret information about North Korea, which has been confirmed by kidnapping and interrogating Gao Ye." ”

"In that case, the price is a little too high, isn't it?"

Gu Shu Liangping sighed and didn't say anything.

"Could it be that other countries are playing tricks?"

"It's possible." Tani Ryohei thought for a while and said, "One thing is for sure, the spy who contacted me must be related to Takano Nachi, otherwise it would be impossible to know the contact method." ”

"What do you do?"

"That's the only clue to the investigation." Tani Shuryohi glanced at the prime minister and said, "First of all, we must determine whether North Korea is related to this matter, and only when North Korea's suspicions are ruled out can the scope of the investigation be expanded." ”

"When are you going to go to North Korea?"

"The sooner the better."

Murakami nodded. "It's okay, find out the truth as soon as possible, so that we can know the whereabouts of Nachi Takano."

Gu Shu Liangping didn't say anything more, got up and said goodbye.

What happened in Tokyo did not attract the attention of the Military Intelligence Agency. After receiving the report from Zhang Xiaolong and Chen Liangyun, Li Cunxun asked them to continue to lurk in Japan, waiting for new opportunities.

The interrogation of Nachichi Takano continues, and the Military Intelligence Agency will not let go of a drop of "oil and water".

On November 2, Tani Shuryohi left for China, still going to North Korea by way.

On this day, an event occurred that attracted great attention from the news media around the world, that is, South Korean President Yoo Jong-chun announced the recovery of part of Dokdo's sovereignty at the Blue House, set up a security post on the west island of Dokdo, dispatched 1C permanent security personnel, and the South Korean ground maritime guard patrol boat carried out fishing patrol duties in the waters around Dokdo.

This is no small matter.

In the morning, millions of Seoul residents spontaneously took to the streets to gather in the direction of the Blue House presidential palace to celebrate South Korea's reconquest of Dokdo.

Almost at the same time, demonstrations erupted in more than 1c cities in Japan.

Although Murakami had been prepared for a long time and dispatched riot police and local garrisons as quickly as possible, the situation was still out of control. Angry, the crowd broke through the cordon set up by the riot police, frantically attacked the apartments and shops of Japanese Koreans, and stormed the South Korean chargΓ© d'affaires in Japan (after the Dokdo War, South Korea severed diplomatic relations with Japan, and only set up diplomatic agencies in Japan).

That day

Murakami had to declare "martial law".

The army entered the city, expelled the demonstrators, arrested the troublemakers, and suppressed the rioters.

From this point of view, Murakami is much tougher than previous Japanese prime ministers. Repression alone will not solve the problem, and if it does not defuse the anger in the hearts of the Japanese people, it will only have the opposite effect.

In the evening, Mr. Murakami made a televised speech in which he declared that the cabinet had not made substantial concessions to South Korea on Dokdo.

At this time, what the Japanese people need most is the attitude of the prime minister.

Murakami has an unparalleled appeal among the Japanese people, but his statement can only calm the anger of the people, but cannot fundamentally solve the problem.

On the morning of 3 November, Japanese Foreign Minister Nako Tsukumo resigned.

Murakami approved Naka's resignation and nominated Kitayama Shikawa to the Diet as foreign minister.

It was only at this time that the anger of the Japanese people was dissipated and the situation in Japan stabilized. Murakami took the opportunity to lift the state of "martial law" and restore normal order to Japan.

A series of operations showed Murakami's political skill.

"Sacrificing" that Ke Zhumo is a definite thing that has long been determined, and it can also receive the effect of killing two birds with one stone. In addition to letting Nake build ink "top bag", he can also take this opportunity to enhance the centripetal force of the army. During his tenure as Minister of Foreign Affairs, Nako Tsukimo was at odds with Defense Minister Katsu Tokitani, who represented the military.

Kitayama Shikawa, who replaced Nako Tsukumo, is a well-known "right-wing scholar" in Japan.

In the eyes of the vast majority of Japanese, Kitayama Shikawa is not a diplomat, but a scholar.

In 20177, "The Future of Japan" was published, and sales in Japan exceeded 10,000 copies that year. It was reprinted in 2018, 2019, 2022 and 2023, and the total sales in Japan exceeded 10,000 copies, which is equivalent to 1 in 5 Japanese people buying the book.

The author of this book is Shikawa Kitayama.

The main content of the book is the direction of Japan's development, and a total of 37 suggestions for Japan to become a "world power", each of which is very realistic. The book was quickly adopted as the "bible" by Japanese right-wing groups, and Kitayama Shikawa became the "spiritual leader" of Japanese right-wing groups.

Murakami Sadamasa made Kitayama Shikawa the Minister of Foreign Affairs, clearly wanting to win over the army.

This incident has become a "turning mark" for Murakami's political line. Until then, Murakami had been in control of the military, trying to put Japan on a "sensible" path of development and avoid taking extreme routes. In general, Murakami has done a good job, and under his control, the Japanese military have not been able to become the dominant force in policy. After that, with the coming to power of Kitayama Shikawa, Japan's foreign policy inevitably underwent a major change, and Murakami Sadamasa gradually lost his ability to control, and military forces and extremist forces gradually became the dominant force in Japanese politics.

Japan's actual national conditions determine that the final outcome of a "rational" politician like Murakami Sadamasa will not be much better.

The relationship between Japan and South Korea has attracted the most attention.

Although Murakami has made it clear that Japan has not made substantial concessions to South Korea on the Dokdo issue, it is widely believed that Japan has reached a significant agreement with South Korea and completed a political deal.

What will happen next, even the Western news media such as NN do not have any "optimistic expectations".

Liu Zongjun was a staunch "unification faction", and Murakami Sadashi was a staunch "expansionist", and the two secretly allied, and the Korean Peninsula once again became the focus of the world.

In response to the statements of South Korea and Japan, both the Republic of China and the United States expressed a "cautious welcome" attitude.

Relatively speaking, the republic is in a much better position than the United States. Although Zhao Rundong is gradually handing over state power, there is no problem of the transfer of power in the republic. As long as Zhao Rundong remains the head of state and firmly supports Wang Yuanqing, the republic will not face the problem of policy change.

The United States is in even greater trouble, Frederick cannot make major decisions on his own, and Westwood has not yet taken office.

Although Westwood will be in the White House in just over two months, who can guarantee that the Korean Peninsula will be able to "smoothly" survive these two months?

In November, the United States "quietly" adjusted its military deployment in the Asia-Pacific region.

The republic is also adjusting its military deployment, but not as "ostentatious" as the United States.

Large-scale military movements cannot be kept secret, and when news media outlets report on them, they predict the possibility of war on the Korean Peninsula in a very positive tone. There are only three points that the outside world is concerned about: first, when the war will break out, second, whether the Republic and the United States will enter the war, and third, whether Japan will be involved in the war on the peninsula.

On this day, the MIA received its first critical piece of intelligence.

After receiving the news from Seoul, Lee Cun-hoon immediately rushed to the official residence of the deputy head of state. The news media's reports are only speculations based on what happened, and Li Cunxun does not need to guess because he has first-hand information.

Damn it**
