Expedition to Europe

Girardin is indeed tenacious. Even if it is like looking for a needle in a haystack, he still wants to try.

However, it is definitely unrealistic to find the suspect from so much information as originally thought. Girardin has to find another way to find clues as quickly as possible.

Considering the hand-to-hand intelligence transmission method, Girardin focused on Lanfang Customs.

To transmit intelligence hand-to-hand, it is necessary to travel back and forth between Lanfang and Japan many times. If someone does not have a job that requires frequent travel between Lanfang and Japan, and can find entry and exit records from the customs many times, then this person must be very suspicious.

When Girardin proposed this idea, Gao Hongshi poured cold water on Girardin again. The National Security Bureau had already conducted an investigation in this regard, but the results were not ideal.

Lanfang did implement the ID card system, but due to objective conditions, the various real-name systems in Lanfang were not implemented thoroughly. Because of the lack of effective detection methods, it is not difficult to make a fake ID card, so this real-name system is actually not very useful for some people with ulterior motives.

If this way doesn't work, then think of another way. Girardin will definitely not give up easily. Passive waiting is not Girardin's style of doing things.

In fact, after Girardin took over this task, Gao Hongshi's support for Girardin was still very strong. At least now Gao Hongshi will copy the intelligence sent back by the National Security Japan Branch to Girardin for reference.

It must be said that the National Security Bureau still attaches great importance to the work in the Japanese direction.

In Lan Fang, Japan and Yingzhou were once the key monitoring targets of the National Security Bureau. Now Yingzhou has been through several "big purges" and the situation is better, but the monitoring of Japan has never been relaxed. Although the Lan Fang headquarters in Japan has also carried out several "big purges" in Japan, this is far from enough.

The National Security Bureau has four branches in Japan, one for each of the four islands of Hokkaido, Honshu, Shikoku, and Kyushu. The total number of staff in these four branches is over a thousand, and a considerable number of them are Japanese. Even if only one-tenth of these thousands of people submit intelligence every day, the number is extremely astonishing, and it covers a wide range of areas, covering all aspects.

After seeing these intelligence, Girardin immediately found the problem.

"Why don't you continue to follow up on this person? This person is very suspicious; and this one, this one, these people are very suspicious, why not arrest them directly?" Girardin took a few selected intelligence and went directly to Gao Hongshi.

Gao Hongshi did not say anything, but took the information that Girardin brought over first, and would give an answer after reading it first.

The first one was about a university professor. The content of the lectures given by this university professor in the classroom exceeded the normal range. He explained the textbooks compiled by Lan Fang, and the direction of the explanation was beyond the norm. The intelligence personnel suspected that he had anti-Lan Fang tendencies.

"This person's anti-Lan Fang tendency is not obvious at present. We have limited manpower and cannot continue to follow up. If we follow up, it will take a long time to track him. There is no need to waste time on such a person." Gao Hongshi's answer was a bit understated.

"No, I think it's just the opposite. Given this person's profession, he has a very dangerous tendency. Generally speaking, the student stage is the most important period in a person's life. The formation of a student's world view and outlook on life has a lot to do with teachers. Japan is a country that respects teachers very much, so this person's danger level must be increased, otherwise, there will definitely be dangerous elements among his students." Girardin had a different opinion, and his focus was different from Gao Hongshi's.

"Then how do you think we should deal with it?" Gao Hongshi threw the question to Girardin.

"Transfer him away, it's better to get rid of him. If there is no excuse, let him die naturally." Girardin's answer was chilling. This was a ruthless little girl who would never drag her feet if she could take action.

"This is a professor with a high social status. If it is not handled properly, it will cause a storm." Gao Hongshi did not approve of Girardin's ruthlessness.

"So let him die naturally. If anyone doubts, let him die naturally." Girardin was unmoved.

Gao Hongshi wanted to say something, but suddenly saw Lan Ziying at the door, and he fell silent.

Girardin was born in the Boy Scouts, and there were many cases of "natural death" in the Boy Scouts. Girardin was used to using this method to eliminate hidden dangers.

It must be said that this is a very effective method. Although there may be accidental injuries, it is absolutely clean and neat, leaving no hidden dangers.

"Then-about this Watanabe Ye, although he is a former soldier, he has not shown any anti-Lan Fang tendency now, it is just a possibility. Of course, this person has certain resources in his hands and may be destructive, so the conclusion is to continue to follow up." Gao Hongshi stopped discussing the professor and picked up the second piece of intelligence.

After Japan's defeat, Watanabe Ye chose to retire. Later, Watanabe Ye returned to his hometown and opened a martial arts school that taught karate. Some of his students participated in underground organizations that opposed Lan Fang's rule, so Watanabe Ye was able to enter the sight of Lan Fang's National Security Department.

"The treatment of this person is even more ridiculous. Since this person is dangerous, he should be eliminated. What is he teaching students? While teaching students to strengthen their bodies, is he also carrying out anti-Lan Fang propaganda? For such a dangerous person with obvious characteristics, the treatment method is just to follow up. This is too unreasonable. His martial arts hall should be razed to the ground and everyone should be locked up and tortured." Girardin is indeed tough. Perhaps in Girardin's eyes, these Japanese are not human beings at all, but lambs to be slaughtered.

"No, no, no, it can't be like this, Jiji. Since the Japanese royal family has been stationed in Lan Fang, the situation in Japan has been a bit unstable. The Japanese are already quite dissatisfied. If another big purge is carried out now, it will undoubtedly add fuel to the fire." Gao Hongshi understands the cruelty of Lan Fang's previous "big purges" in Japan. To be honest, it is similar to Girardin's method. It is also because of this that Lan Fang's attitude towards Japan is a bit soft now.

"Gao, let me ask you a question. If we withdraw from Japan now and return the Taisho Emperor to Japan, can we coexist peacefully with the Japanese?" Girardin did not dwell on this question and proposed a hypothesis to Gao Hongshi.

"Withdraw? Absolutely impossible. We will not give Japan any chance to rise again." Gao Hongshi immediately said firmly.

"Well, then, that is to say, there is no possibility of peaceful coexistence between us and those Japanese." Girardin made a deduction based on Gao Hongshi's answer.

"Yes." After a long silence, Gao Hongshi agreed with Girardin's statement.

It is indeed impossible for the Lanfang people and the current Japanese to coexist peacefully. Those who can coexist peacefully have chosen to join the Lanfang nationality. Those Japanese who are still in Japan now either have relatives who died in the previous war and the Great Purge, have national hatred and family hatred with Lanfang, or are hostile to Lanfang.

The original text can be read in Liu # 9 @Shu/Bar!

After the Meiji Restoration, the attitude of Japanese education towards Chinese people was to vilify and slander them. Decades of education have been deeply rooted in people's hearts. Although Japanese people recognize Chinese culture, they believe that only Japan is the orthodox successor of Chinese civilization, and Chinese people have been lost since the Yuan Dynasty and are not worthy of representing Chinese civilization. Therefore, there are really many Japanese people who look down on Chinese people in Japan. Even if Lan Fang has achieved such great achievements now, in the eyes of many Japanese, it is still not worthy of respect.

"In this case, why should we be gentle? If the kingly way of education cannot completely achieve the goal, then we have to change another way, at least to make some people completely surrender, which is much better than the current crisis." Girardin's attitude is still radical. In terms of his attitude towards the enemy, Girardin is definitely an autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves.

"Jiji, many times our work cannot be accomplished overnight, we must proceed step by step." Gao Hongshi still advocates subtle influence.

"Gao, I would rather push everything back and start over than make improvements on the current basis." Girardin is still stubborn.

Neither of them could convince the other, and the lawsuit eventually came to Qin Zhiyuan.

"There are advantages to taking things step by step, and it's also good to start over. It mainly depends on the cost. Now we Lan Fang are the actual rulers of Japan. If we act too cruelly, we always have to consider the reactions of other countries. In fact, it is impossible for Japan to rise again. They have no industry, no professors of science and engineering, and even no writing and language. If it continues like this, Japan can be regarded as Lan Fang territory in at most fifty years." Qin Zhiyuan's attitude towards Japan is even more insidious. Qin Zhiyuan is ready to make the Japanese lose their country and exterminate their race.

Lan Fang has now determined the status of Chinese and Chinese characters in Japan in the form of legislation. Japanese textbooks, official documents, and even the characters on banknotes are all in Chinese characters, including several liberal arts colleges in Japan that are now strictly limited in size. Teachers must also use Chinese in class. Qin Zhiyuan wants to conquer the Japanese not only physically, but also spiritually and culturally. He wants to conquer them comprehensively and thoroughly.

"Your Majesty, we don't think it will take fifty years." Girardin has his own judgment on the international situation.

Lan Fang has conducted many deductions on the international situation. The relationship between countries in the world shows that peace cannot be achieved unless there is another world war.

Even if it is not peace in the true sense, it is impossible to achieve a certain degree of peace.

According to the deduction of the Lan Fang Staff, the countries most likely to break out in war are Lan Fang and Britain, as well as Germany and Britain. If the war breaks out between Lan Fang and Britain first, then the Staff gave an approximate time. If the current situation develops, it is estimated that by 1930, a war will break out between Lan Fang and Britain.
