Beiyang reactionaries

Duan Xun said leisurely: "I see that your Propaganda Department organizes people, conceives some stories, and shoots a series of movies. The suppression of bandits, the smoking ban, Mongolia, Hulunbeier, the Zhongchang Railway, the concession issue, and the customs issue can all be filmed. There are so many things to be filmed. What you filmed. Of course, be natural, sort out the events of the past ten years, and your propaganda department can package it well. Don’t be too exaggerated. The film you shoot can be broadcast in big cities, and you should also organize people to tour it in various counties. Of course, this new model is just one type, and there are many channels that your propaganda department can use, newspapers and songs are all good channels, and you must make good use of them.”

"I see."

Lang Boyu nodded slightly.

China has indeed changed a lot in the past ten years.Even carefully speaking, Duan Xun sent troops to suppress the rebellion in Tibet is worthy of a close-up.It is even more praiseworthy to take back so much sovereignty.

People's Party?

Duan Xun believes that promoting the People's Party is promoting himself.In fact, promoting Duan Xun is not promoting the People's Party.Between Duan Xun and the People's Party, they complement each other.

In the past ten years, China has undergone great changes and great development, and a few of them will be highlighted for publicity, which is to increase the prestige of Duan Xun and the People's Party.

"Prime Minister."

"Minister Yan, what's the matter?"

When Duan Xun and Lang Bo were talking about the work of the Propaganda Department, Yan Shichao walked in.Yan Shichao nodded to Lang Boyu, and said, "Prime Minister, something happened in Japan."

503

"Prime Minister, I'll go now."

When Yan Shichao came in to talk about Japan, Lang Boyu immediately stood up.Lang Boyu was born as Secretary-General Duan Xun, and he knows how to advance and retreat better than anyone else.You shouldn't know it yourself, you shouldn't get involved in it, and you must not participate.

"Okay, you go first."

Duan Xun nodded.

The Consulate of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Japan is actually the headquarters of China's intelligence agencies in Japan.The intelligence agencies of the army, the intelligence agencies of the Ministry of Security, and the intelligence agencies of other departments all have personnel stationed in the consulates in Japan. These personnel and the staff sent by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs form the consulates in Japan.They collect information on Japan's economy, politics, military, and society, and then feed the information back to the country.

Yan Shichao, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, came here in person, it must be that something big happened in Japan.It is indeed inappropriate for Lang Boyu to stay at this stage.After Lang Boyu left, Duan Xun asked Yan Shichao, "What happened?"

"Yesterday, the Japanese police were dispatched to arrest the Japanese Communist Party nationwide, including celebrities close to the Japanese Communist Party. More than 1000 people were arrested. According to the news from Tokyo, with the arrest of the Japanese Communist Party, The Japanese cabinet began to disband some political parties and student groups that supported the Japanese Communist Party, and it also spread to Japanese universities, dismissing many university professors. So far, more than 30 well-known student groups have been disbanded, and more than 70 support workers and peasants The university professor who advocated dismissal. According to our analysis, judging from the current situation in Japan, this time the turmoil will definitely become bigger and bigger. The Japanese cabinet will never eliminate all those groups and individuals who support the workers and peasants movement. Let it go."

"Oh?"

Duan Xun was a little surprised.

Over the past few years, Japan's economy has become more and more difficult, and the workers' and peasants' movement has indeed developed rapidly.It should be said that the establishment of the Soviet Union had a huge boost to the workers and peasants movement all over the world.In addition, the Communist International supported by the Soviet Union has branches in many countries around the world, including Japan.With the support of the Soviet Union, they became more and more active.

Why are European countries so hostile to the Soviet Union?

This is the biggest reason.

After the end of World War I, the European economy was in a slump and unemployment soared.For example, when the unemployment rate in the UK was at its highest, millions of people were unemployed at one time.

Most countries in Europe are industrial countries, and the scale of industrial workers is astonishing.If everyone's life is OK, then what's not.But the problem now is that the unemployment rate in European countries is astonishing, and many workers have problems with food and clothing.Such a social environment is the easiest to breed the worker-peasant movement.And speaking of it, Marxism was born in Western Europe, an industrial country.

After the First World War, labor movements emerged one after another.There is the Soviet Union behind it, which is why European countries are so hostile to the Soviet Union.Think of the Soviet Union as their worst enemy.The major European countries such as Britain, France and Germany are full of conflicts, but their attitudes towards the Soviet Union are the same.

This is true of Britain, France and Germany, and so is Japan.

The economy is not good, Japan's rural economy is bankrupt, and peasant riots continue one after another.Japan's economic downturn in recent years has affected their industry.Especially in the Japanese financial crisis, although the Japanese government has taken decisive measures, there are still a large number of bank failures.These banks account for 16% of the nation's deposits.Not a single bank was spared from the Japanese colonies of the Korean Peninsula and Taiwan.Such a large-scale bank failure is definitely the biggest financial crisis in Japanese history.

Modern economy is inseparable from finance.As a result of the financial crisis, a large number of Japanese factories began to go bankrupt, and a large number of workers lost their jobs.Therefore, the workers' and peasants' movement in Japan, that is, the leftist alliance, has developed rapidly in recent years.Starting from the Communist Party of Japan, various leftist political parties and a large number of leftist student groups emerged.

The rapid development of these workers' and peasants' movements seriously offended the Japanese upper class and made them a thorn in the side.I just didn't expect Tanaka Yoshiichi to be so decisive and use the military and police system to directly suppress these organizations.And there was no sign at all, and he shot suddenly.

"When is the Japanese election?"

"March next year."

"kindness."

Duan Xun nodded.

There are still three months left, and Yoshiichi Tanaka is cleaning up the leftist alliance, refusing to have some things that cannot be controlled.Otherwise, according to the current development of the workers' and peasants' movement, maybe the leftist alliance will be able to win a lot of seats in next year's parliamentary elections.Yoshiichi Tanaka cannot allow this to happen.And cleaning up the leftist alliance can show favor with those veterans and aristocratic forces.

"How is Yoshiichi Tanaka preparing?"

"Prime Minister, in the past two months, Yoshiichi Tanaka has changed and reassigned more than 100 local officials with less than [-] governors. He has almost wiped out all the important local officials at the grassroots level and firmly controlled the local administrative power."

"Tanaka Yoshiichi really took great pains for the election."

Duan Xun's face was serious.

Yoshiichi Tanaka is not an ordinary politician, he is a politician of military origin.In terms of means, he is much more decisive than ordinary politicians.

For the election, the local officials were immediately rectified.What does it mean, Duan Xun can understand at a glance.The so-called election is also a new thing in Japan, and no one understands how it is done.But since it is an election, it must go through the organization and review of the government department, and the government department will definitely intervene.Tanaka Yoshiichi is now adjusting so many local officials and mastering local administrative power, he must be interfering in the election process.

In fact, China has already experienced this situation.In the first election of the Republic of China, Song Jiaoren adopted such a method.When Yuan Shikai's Beiyang forces didn't understand elections, the Kuomintang sent personnel wantonly to interfere in local elections.Using administrative power to guarantee the number of votes of Kuomintang party members, in one fell swoop established the position of the Kuomintang as the largest party in Congress.

This is the first time, and the second time is the appearance of Anfu Congress.Duan Qirui also used his administrative power to intervene in the election wantonly, making all members of Congress his own.

Compared with the Republic of China, Japan is still much later.But the situation is the same, what Tanaka Yoshiichi is going to do now is what Duan Qirui did back then.

Yoshiichi Tanaka has always been a mainland expansionist, and he is also a "manchurian anarchist". How could Duan Xun not be cautious about the background of the Japanese radical generals who were eyeing the Manchurian region.

"Wakatsuki Reijiro and the others?"

"They've been preparing for the election."

"No other actions?"

"No."

"Pedantic people."

Duan Xun shook his head.

People like Reijiro Wakatsuki and Kijuro Hashihara were born in literati.Their political opinions are not too bad, but they are far from Tanaka Yoshiichi's opponents in political struggles.

Look at Yoshiichi Tanaka, for the sake of election methods, he is ruthless and very decisive, regardless of whether it is illegal or not.But Wakatsuki Reijiro and the others are completely step-by-step, and as supporters of party politics, they handle things completely in accordance with the law.Facing a cunning and decisive opponent like Tanaka Yoshiichi, how could it be possible to win.

"It seems that Yoshiichi Tanaka will become the Prime Minister of Japan is inevitable."

Duan Xun had a headache.

Duan Xun likes Wakatsuki Reijiro and the others, because there are still traces of dealing with them.But it is not easy to deal with Tanaka Yoshiichi.

"Minister Yan, I have a mission for your Ministry of Foreign Affairs. After you go back, immediately organize some people to study Tanaka Yoshiichi and the people around him. Analyze what kind of policy Tanaka Yoshiichi will adopt after he becomes the Prime Minister of Japan. Wait. Submit the analysis report as a reference for the cabinet."

"Yes."

Yan Shichao nodded.

This is a very common job for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.There are many departments under the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, such as the Asian Department, the European Department, the American Department and so on.The most important part of the Asian Division is Japan, and the most important part of the American Division is the United States.
