"Your Excellency Minei, Matsumoto-kun, Commander of the Nakamura Division, you should know the purpose of my calling you here. Now that Japan is facing a major crisis, the slightest carelessness may cause Japan to fall back into the chaos of the Warring States Period, so I invited a few of them here to join forces with them and to defeat this 'April Alliance' in order to maintain Japan's stability. Mu Yang said in a fierce tone, and when he spoke, the unique horizontal wrinkles on Koiso Kunizhao's face became more and more hideous.

Mitsumasa Yonechi frowned deeply, and after listening to Mu Yang's words, he said: "Is that Asano Kaichi's words true, how can so many imperial generals, soldiers who once wholeheartedly defended His Majesty the Emperor, become rebels overnight, will that Asano Kaichi be lying to us." ”

Matsumoto Hiromasa said, "If this thing is true, it will be a rather terrible thing, so many army generals, who control most of the military power of the empire, once they start to rebel, the empire will not be able to bear it." ”

"No, the empire still has the imperial power faction controlling nearly half of the military power, the empire will not be chaotic, now I think, whether this news is true or not, we should be prepared first to prevent the 'April Alliance' from launching a coup offensive, so as not to be caught off guard when the time comes." Muyang found that Mitsumasa Mine, the guy he wanted to pull into the water the most, was still very sober-minded, so he retreated and said so.

Mitsumasa Yonechi nodded, and agreed with this statement, no matter what, it must be right to take precautions first.

And Masao Nakamura is a key figure.

Today's Tokyo has the largest military commander Nakamura Masao, whose Guards Division has more than 20,000 people. Responsible for the security of Tokyo and the Emperor. Only when Nakamura Masao is moved, can the following things be carried out.

However, Muyang has some confidence to persuade Nakamura Masao. Masao Nakamura is a native of Yamagata Prefecture. It happens to be the same township as Koiso Kuniaki. You know, the relationship between fellow villagers no matter what time it is. is one of the links of officialdom, as early as more than ten years ago, Koiso Kunitaki and Nakamura Tadao had a connection, in Nakamura Masao's career, Koiso Kuniaki also helped out, so the relationship between the two is not bad.

These things were found out by Muyang as early as when he made the plan, so he listed Nakamura Masao as an important part of his plan, and now it is time for him to play a role.

Mitsumasa Minai is gone, and he is going back to convene an emergency meeting of the Admiralty. We will study countermeasures to address this issue. Matsumoto Mitsumasa also took his leave and left, and when he left, Muyang gave him an order to mobilize his police and impose martial law at the highest level in Tokyo.

Muyang left Nakamura Masao alone.

"Nakamura-kun, protecting the safety of the emperor is the job of the Guards Division, although His Majesty the Emperor was assassinated and killed without the responsibility of the Guards Division, but this is also a dereliction of duty, and in the end Nakamura-kun will inevitably be held accountable, I think if the senior soldier Tojo wants to do it. The first person to be eliminated is you. ”

Mu Yang said as he handed Nakamura Masao a cigar, and after the two of them lit it, they quietly smoked in the house.

After a while. Masao Nakamura opened his mouth and said, "Your Excellency Prime Minister, do you think that the 'April Alliance' that Kaichi Asano said really exists? ”

"I don't know, but I know one thing. That is, His Majesty the Emperor died, and he was killed in the Imperial Palace by a section chief of the General Staff Headquarters. And it was Umezu Mijiro who entered the palace with Kaichi Asano. ”

"You and I are well aware of the situation in the Army Headquarters and the General Staff Headquarters, and the Army has been seeking greater power. I don't want to be constrained. I wouldn't be surprised if this 'April Alliance' existed, and it may not have been a rebellion to kill the emperor in the first place, but it was probably just a loose alliance formed for the purpose of becoming a knight, but after Hideki Tojo was deposed, whether there would be new ideas, who can be sure. Muyang said leisurely.

"But what benefits can they get after killing the emperor, the emperor already has a lot of power to give the military department, even if a new emperor is established, won't the result still be like this?" Masao Nakamura asked with some puzzlement.

"Are you so sure that they will have a new emperor?" Muyang said.

Nakamura Masao was shocked, "Do they want to take the imperial power by themselves?" ”

"It is not necessarily the imperial power, and the emperor's power is granted by God, and no one else can take it away. They can establish a government of military personnel, completely kick out the imperial family, and seize the supreme power in Japan, which abounds in other parts of the world. Muyang explained.

"Their ambitions are really not small." Nakamura Masao sighed, he is a pure soldier and has little to do with political struggles, and it may be because of his character that he was selected as the division commander of the Guards.

"They are all people who have gone through ups and downs for decades, who has no ambition, how can they be in their current high position without ambition. Nakamura-kun, now you have to make a choice, whether to retreat and give up the position of commander of the Guards Division, or to fight for your own fate. ”

"You are not from the 'April Alliance', the Guards Division you now control is the largest force in Tokyo, and Hideki Tojo will do everything they can to seize the command of the army. They will most likely put you on a trumped-up charge so that they can get rid of you. ”

"Nakamura-kun, we can't sit still, now that we know their plan, we have to strike first, so that we don't fall into passivity. We still have a great chance, as long as we control the Tokyo Metropolitan Government, whether it is the military headquarters, the staff headquarters, or those military veterans, we will also act according to our faces. At that time, we will be able to unite the Imperial Family to elect the next Emperor, and we will be the person on whom His Majesty will rely on the most. I think that when the time comes, His Majesty the new Emperor will not hesitate to bestow us a title, and we can establish our own family and prosper forever, and we will be the founders of the family, and we will always be remembered and worshiped by the descendants of the family. ”

These words were already very inflammatory, and Muyang also used hypnotism when he spoke, making it easier for Nakamura Masao to accept Muyang's statement.

Add an official to the knighthood and create a family, what a tempting word, Muyang's words made Nakamura Masao very moved.

"Your Excellency, do you think we will succeed?" Masao Nakamura asked.

Mu Yang had an unpredictable smile on his face, he knew that since Nakamura Masao asked like this, he had basically accepted his statement psychologically.

"There is a saying in China, it is called wealth and danger, and there are risks in doing anything, but I think we still have a great chance of success, you think about it, there are not a few armies in the country now, and the Guards Division is stationed in Tokyo, responsible for protecting the security of Tokyo, we have every right to impose martial law on Tokyo, and other armies cannot be transferred at will without orders, this is our opportunity."

"As long as Nakamura-kun makes up his mind, I will control the government's side, and you will control the Guards Division to impose martial law on Tokyo. The navy and the army have always been at odds, and we can enlist the support of Admiral Mitsumasa Yonechi, and I am ready to lobby the royal family next, what else can we not succeed in?
