Because of Alumbe-kun's words, I sent all my troops. How pitiful the soldiers were...... - 226 mutiny executed Captain Teruzo Ando

"I understand your feelings! Very clear! The Minister of War Kawashima Yoshiyuki, who was in charge of the negotiations, stood up and said in a deep voice to the officers: "We will report this matter to Your Majesty!" But what to do with it is not up to us to decide......"

As he spoke, he nodded at the officers. Then he turned around and left the conference room with a few generals beside him.

At this time, three more people knew about it. But they didn't do anything at the same time, in addition to Kita Ikki, the spiritual mentor of these soldiers and officers, there were also General Shizaburo Masaki and Tetsuya Kamegawa, the opposition politician!

But at the same time, they chose to remain silent and watched this happen coldly!

At half past nine in the morning, Minister of War Yoshiyuki Kawashima met with the Emperor and handed him a letter of advice to the rebels.

"What do you want me to say?! Do you say those words of forgiveness?! Hirohito looked at Yoshiyuki Kawashima coldly and said, "The Pythagorean of me killed by this group of young officers!" Do I still have to forgive them?! ”

Yoshiyuki Kawashima is prostrate on the ground in a cold sweat! He didn't dare to say more, and Hirohito looked at him coldly and continued: "Prime Minister's Secretary, Army Reserve Osashi Matsuo Denzo, Minister of the Interior, former Prime Minister, Admiral Saito, Minister of Finance, former Prime Minister: Takahashi Isei, Army General, Military Senate and Director of Education: Watanabe Shotaro, Chief of Staff and Privy Advisor, Admiral of the Naval Reserve: Kantaro Suzuki, ......"

Yoshiyuki Kawashima couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat when he heard Hirohito's words! Lying on the ground, I can't say a word!

"These people still say they're rebels?! These bastards have killed all my ministers!! Hirohito stood up and yelled at Kawashima Yoshiyuki, "Tell me yourself!" How many times has this been?! The whole army except the assassination is the assassination! Everyone still bears the name of righteousness! This is destroying my country!! ”

"I'm ashamed to ...... Your Majesty," Yoshiyuki Kawashima leaned down and whispered to Hirohito, who was standing up. Hirohito's anger at this time also disappeared a little. looked at Yoshiyuki Kawashima coldly and said directly.

"Quickly calm the situation, or...... I took the Imperial Army directly to clean it up!! ”

"Hail!!" Yoshiyuki Kawashima said yes, then got up and slowly exited the room with his head down.

After watching Kawashima Yoshiyuki retreat coldly, Hirohito's face was also gloomy!

Face two? Hirohito also seemed very anxious about the 26 incident, when the chief military attache wrote, "Your Majesty summons every twenty or thirty minutes. Inquire about the development of the incident and urge the suppression. ”

At 10 p.m., the military councillors such as Sadao Araki, Shizaburo Mazaki, Nobuyuki Abe, Juro Hayashi, Kenkichi Ueda, Shouichi Terauchi, King Hatohiko of Asakanomiya, King Morimasa of Rimoto, and King Minoru Higashikure discussed the handling of the rebellion at a meeting in the palace.

After some arguments, compromises, and exchange of interests, under the influence of the mediation of Sadao Araki and Shizaburo Mazaki and others. Minister of War Yoshiyuki Kawashima wrote a notice from the Minister of War acknowledging the contents of the rebellion.

At 3:20 p.m., the Tokyo Garrison Command published a proclamation from the Minister of War emphasizing that "the purpose of the uprising has been heard by heaven" and that "the recognition of the true meaning of the sons is based on the manifestation of the affection of the nation," and conveyed the rebels' message to all parts of the country.

There is no doubt that this incident has caused a sensation again! Widespread indignation across Japan led to many people expressing solidarity and support for Ando's actions. But no one cared about the lives of the ministers who died tragically.

"Inform the Prince of the Imperial Palace! If those armies can't manage their subordinates well, then I will manage them myself! Hirohito, who was resting on the tatami mat with his eyes closed, said in a deep voice to the attendant military attache beside him.

"These things are so unpleasant! Just this year. How many times has this been?! Do these bastards think that in the name of 'justice', they can act recklessly?! ”

"Is it that one day they think that I am useless, and they can replace me?!"

Hirohito's words made the attendant military attache couldn't help but be surprised! Hurriedly leaned over and responded: "Your Majesty, this is something you don't dare......"

And Hirohito's words had already reached Kawashima Yoshiyuki's meeting, and only then did they find out why Hirohito was so angry! This kind of thing has now become the norm in the army!

Assassination, seizure of power! And then in the name of justice, for the empire! Hirohito felt a trace of fear at the same time as he was angry, so many ministers from the army, and even ministers of the army, they could kill them without saying anything!

So what about yourself?! Who can guarantee that one day they will feel useless and will not end the royal family?! This kind of atmosphere must not be fostered!

At the 8:40 p.m. cabinet meeting, Sadao Araki and the others had already received a decision from Hirohito. After a long silence. Sadao Araki and the other Imperial Sect have already known that things are irreparable.

Only then did they realize that they had really ignored the emperor's reaction, and although they and others claimed to be "imperial factions", they were doing things that Hirohito could not tolerate!

The most important thing is that they didn't communicate this matter to Hirohito at all! This led Hirohito to subconsciously regard them as crazy slaughterers!

"Could you please make one last request for Your Majesty? These officers are for the Empire after all. After being silent for a long time, Sadao Araki whispered to Yoshiyuki Kawashima: "Let them disembowel, it can be regarded as preserving the last glory of the soldiers......"

"Your Majesty has already said that it must be suppressed!!" Yoshiyuki Kawashima looked at Sadao Araki coldly, and said in a deep voice, "Or, let's do it." Or, Your Majesty will do it himself! ”

The people at the scene were silent again, they didn't expect Hirohito's determination to be so great! Even that anger has reached such a point!

"For the honor of the Army, let's leave this matter to us......" After being silent for a long time, Terauchi Shouichi glanced at everyone: "If you let Your Majesty do it yourself." What is the honor of our Army?! ”

Everyone was silent, and the Imperial Sect such as Sadao Araki and Shizaburo Masaki already knew that the matter was irreparable. They quietly lowered their heads and said nothing.

After the meeting, War Minister Yoshiyuki Kawashima announced to the public that it was "for the purpose of preventing the activities of the Red Elements" and decided to proclaim that martial law would be issued from 3:30 a.m. on the 27th.

At four o'clock in the morning of the 27th, the Tokyo Garrison Command became the Martial Law Command. The Martial Law Command imposed martial law in Tokyo at 1:30 p.m.

After martial law was imposed, the rebel forces were also brought under the command of the martial law commander, who recognized the areas they occupied as the areas they were garrisoning.

At this time, Hirohito's order came from the palace again!

"It seems that the spirit of the murderous officers who killed my old ministers, etc., how can their spirit be forgiven!!"

"Killing my most trusted old minister is like using a soft knife against me!! If all these things can be forgiven, then what about the recurrence in the future?! Such things greatly damage the face and interests of the empire!! These rebels must be executed! ”

In addition, worse news came!

On February 28, the Navy opposed the dictatorship of the Army and assembled the Combined Fleet in Tokyo Bay for a demonstration! You know, the Navy suffered heavy losses in this mutiny! Several generals and important ministers died tragically! The angry Navy demanded that the Army must give the Navy justice!

Therefore, the attitude of the navy also denied the rebellion led by the young officers of the Imperial Road faction from the beginning.

The chaebols of the various ministries were angry at this extreme behavior of the Imperial Dao faction, which was already an army-style rebellion involving more than a thousand people! The significance of this is completely different from the previous assassinations, and the way it did undoubtedly shake the very foundation of the army.

At this time, the soldiers from Ando to the following already knew the outcome of the matter. They have no room to manoeuvre, and this thing has completely failed!

On the 28th, Lieutenant General Kohei Kashii, commander of martial law, ordered the Fenqi troops to immediately return to their original units, and the 1st Infantry Wing of the 1st Division and the 7th Wing of the Field Heavy Artillery of the Fenqi Troops were withdrawn.

At 11 o'clock in the evening, the martial law troops announced that they would launch a general offensive after 5 o'clock in the morning of the next day, and the martial law headquarters dispatched combat vehicles and ordered to surround the rising troops. At the same time, the "Fourteenth Commandment" was issued, and the rising troops were designated as "rebel forces", and "in order to restore law and order, they should be suppressed by force!" ”

It was only then that they fully understood! The revered kings are in fact afraid and angry with them! Suddenly, the morale of the army was discouraged.

"Our last request is to have a decent death...... "Ando once again went to command the repression as a representative, and demanded to the officers, "at least...... Able to make us caesarean ......"

Yoshiyuki Kawashima was silent for a long time, nodded and sent this request to the palace.

"All the officers who have taken action shall gather at the minister's office to apologize, and those below the corporal level shall be returned to their original units. Therefore, he wished to give an edict and give him the honor after death," hoping that such a plan would finally resolve the rebellion, and that the chief military attache would pass it on to the emperor.

In Ando's expectant gaze, what they were waiting for was the final order: "If you commit suicide, you can do it arbitrarily, and you don't have to send an envoy like this!" Needless to say! Execute it! ”

On February 29, the soldiers of the mountain and tsunami launched a final attack on the territory occupied by Ando under the cover of chariots!

"Wake up from the long sleep of ten thousand calamities, run to the new morning of Japan, as long as you have a dream, what is fame, only loyalty will never be lost, looking back on this life, you can always say that there are no regrets!" Teizo Ando looked at the overwhelming chariots and soldiers who roared loudly!

"Fame is just a dream, only sincerity will never be sold! Life is full of feelings, and who can comment on success or failure; The song of resignation is chanted, and the song of generosity and sorrow is over today. The sword on my waist is there, and the blood in the sea is surging! ”

"Bang!" With a bang, Teruzo Ando raised the **** and shot him hard in the head! The blood suddenly gushed out, mixed with the snow on the ground! The red and white ones are beautiful! And the figure in the yellow-green military uniform slowly rolled into a pool of blood...... (To be continued)
