Power sometimes cannot withstand violence!

At the Prime Minister's residence, the sleeping Yanagawa Shilang family was surrounded and controlled by soldiers. At this moment, they were all sitting on the sofa in pajamas, with more than a dozen soldiers armed with rifles and stern expressions standing against the wall.

"Tell me, who is your leader?" Yanagawa Shilang asked a third-class army officer tremulously, never imagining that he would witness a coup in modern times.

This is definitely the year 2000.

Not 1936?

The new century is here! Who the hell is so crazy!

Having received prior instructions, the third-class army officer showed great respect to Yanagawa Shilang. After saluting, he replied in a deep voice: "Your Excellency, it is Governor Aoyama who leads us in honoring the Emperor and eliminating traitors."

"Xiu Xin!" Yanagawa Xianyou and Asakawa Xia exclaimed in surprise together: "How could it be him?"

Both of them had never dreamed that Aoyama Xiu Xin would launch a coup and have the capability to do so.

Yanagawa Shilang was equally stunned, and after regaining his composure, he called Aoyama Xiu Xin with shaking hands.

"Good evening, Grandpa." The call was answered quickly.

Aoyama Xiu Xin's tone was calm and gentle.

Yanagawa Shilang shouted emotionally: "Don't call me Grandpa! I don't have a grandson like you who brings calamity to the nation! Aoyama Xiu Xin, you madman, what exactly are you doing? Stop this immediately! You will plunge the country into chaos and drag the people into the abyss!"

"Once the train of the era rolls forward, it can never stop, crushing everything that attempts to block its path. Grandpa, tomorrow at dawn, I will be the master of this country. I won't say any more, as I am destined to be very busy tonight." Aoyama Xiu Xin said and then hung up the phone.

"Beep... beep... beep..." Listening to the dial tone from the phone, Yanagawa Shilang trembled with anger, coughing as he cursed: "Bastard! This bastard!"

"Grandpa, don't be too agitated." Looking at him as if he might faint at any moment, Yanagawa Xianyou hurriedly stepped forward and patted his chest with a worried expression.

Yanagawa Shilang gradually calmed down, lying in his grandson's arms, muttering: "No wonder he didn't seek reconciliation with Koizumi. From the beginning, he intended to do this, this nation-wrecking scoundrel! I actually nurtured such a bastard! I am the nation's sinner, the people's sinner!"

At this moment, he was in great pain, tears streaming down his face. It was his poor judgment that led the nation into such turmoil.

How will history document him in the future?

"It's useless to say this now, hurry up and deploy the troops, Grandpa!" Yanagawa Xianyou said anxiously.

"It's too late." Yanagawa Shilang said with a mournful smile, shaking his head: "All the army units that can be used have been deployed to Kyushu for exercises. This was a conspiracy from the beginning. Besides, why would I redeploy the troops, to turn Tokyo into ruins? To ignite a full-scale civil war and displace millions? I am already a sinner and can't continue making wrong decisions."

Since Aoyama Xiu Xin dared to launch a coup, he must be determined to wage civil war, but Yanagawa Shilang lacked such resolve.

"Moreover, you seem to have forgotten our current situation. Do we even have the chance to make a phone call?" Yanchuan Shilang pointed at the soldiers around them, who were watching them closely, and mocked himself.

It was only then that Yanagawa Xianyou remembered that they were already under control, something he forgot due to the urgency of the situation.

"It's okay, without the support of the Americans, he will not succeed." He tried his best to comfort his grandfather.

"Without the Americans' support, there would be no military exercises." Yanagawa Shilang saw more clearly and said with a face full of pain: "His relationship with the Americans is already deep. Once the overall situation is certain, the United States will definitely support his governance. For the United States, as long as Japan's position remains unchanged and their national interests are not damaged, it doesn't matter who becomes Prime Minister."

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"

"Where is the gunfire coming from?" Yanchuan Shilang was taken aback.

Since there were no troops in the city, Aoyama Xiu Xin's chaotic army shouldn't encounter resistance within the city.

Therefore, there shouldn't be any large-scale combat, and sporadic gunfire would be normal, but this was clearly a firefight between two forces.

Yanagawa Xianyou suddenly exclaimed: "It's the Imperial Palace!"

Yanagawa Shilang nearly blacked out and fainted.

"Aoyama Xiu Xin, this treacherous minister and rebellious subject! How dare he let people fire at the Imperial Palace!"

Even if there was a way to deploy troops, now he truly dared not. Aoyama Xiu Xin dared to attack the Imperial Palace; he was already insane and definitely dared to conduct a civil war. He did not want Japan to be engulfed in war.

Yanagawa Xianyou remained silent. If stopping it was impossible, then Aoyama Xiu Xin becoming Prime Minister didn't seem so bad?

In any case, he wouldn't treat his elder brother poorly.

The wealth and prosperity of the Yanagawa family would always remain.

In Kyushu, Yagyu Yuichiro, the Sea Guard Chief of Staff, had just finished a call with his son, Yagyu Tomon, and already smoked three cigarettes, yet he couldn't calm down, and his hands kept trembling.

"Father, things have come to this, we can only wait for news." Yagyu Bingyong said in a dry voice.

Choosing to do nothing despite knowing about the coup was, in itself, a stance.

Yagyu Yuichiro took a deep breath and nodded slowly.

He had no choice. His son was involved in tonight's coup, and their family had colluded with Aoyama Xiu Xin in the past, making money without any thought of serving the country. Now, just at this point, it seemed ridiculous to talk about serving the country.

......

The Imperial Palace was the only place in Tokyo where there was gunfire.

Although no professional military units were stationed inside.

The armed police responsible for security were numerous.

These people had been protecting the royal family for a long time, establishing a sense of honor, and were particularly loyal to the royal family.
