The Yasukuni Shrine was founded in 1869. It was originally called the Tokyo Spiritualist Society and was renamed the Yasukuni Shrine in 1879.
Initially, the Tokyo Spiritual Society enshrined the soldiers who died in the emperor's struggle to restore his rights. After that, any Japanese who sacrificed their lives for the country were eligible to enter the Yasukuni Shrine and enjoy enshrinements.
Therefore, the Yasukuni Shrine is in a special position. In terms of status, it is second only to the shrines dedicated to the royal family. In addition, the emperor personally visits the shrine, so the status of the Yasukuni Shrine becomes more and more noble among ordinary Japanese.
After all, the Kwanbi Shrine, which worships the royal family, has little to do with ordinary people. Many of the soldiers enshrined in the Yasukuni Shrine are civilians. To use a 21-hour phrase, compared with the Kwanbi Shrine, the Yasukuni Shrine is more down-to-earth.
The Yasukuni Shrine is located in Chiyoda District, Tokyo, not far from the Imperial Palace, the residence of the emperor. Therefore, during Xie Rundong's bombing of Tokyo, the Yasukuni Shrine escaped the napalm bombs, but it did not escape the bombing of the Northern Xinjiang Military Region.
.
After Qin Haoge arrived in Tokyo, the first thing he did was to go to the Yasukuni Shrine.
Of course, Qin Haoge did not go to the Yasukuni Shrine to offer sacrifices, so he did not bring incense, melons or fruits. On the contrary, Qin Haoge brought a team of engineers with pickaxes and engineer shovels.
When the motorcade arrived in front of the Yasukuni Shrine, Qin Haoge, dressed in military uniform, got off the bulldog and looked at the simple and tall first door in silence.
This first gate is actually under construction. Although the scaffolding has not been removed yet, you can already see the outline of the first gate. The shape of this gate is very much like a Chinese character gate. The gate is 23 meters high. All the wood is taken from Yingzhou.
, Qin Haoge's height of 1.8 meters is considered tall among Japanese people, but he still looks extremely small under this torii, which makes him feel awe-inspiring.
Tsk tsk, the Japanese are so small, why should they build a gate so high? Yang Kai, deputy commander of Lanfang's troops stationed in Japan and Qin Haoge's chief of staff, was amazed.
It is precisely because they are small that they are afraid that others will look down on them. Qin Haoge walked in expressionlessly. After taking only two steps, he turned around and said, "Tear down this gate for me. There is no need to tear it down. Our resident
The Japanese headquarters is located here. I will call some people over and drive away all the monks here.
Before Qin Haoge came to Japan, Qin Zhiyuan had been given a briefing. Qin Haoge's mission during this trip was to humiliate the Japanese as much as possible and make the Japanese doubt Japan's values, Japan's country, and the emperor, and then doubt himself.
doubts about his life.
So the Yasukuni Shrine, one of the spiritual pillars of Japan, is obviously an excellent target.
In fact, it is impossible for such a large convoy to arrive without attracting attention. Just when Qin Haoge was about to walk inside, a group of monks rushed out from the Yasukuni Shrine. The leader of the group saluted Qin Haoge from afar: Welcome everyone.
Come and visit Yasukuni Shrine
What kind of worship will you say later? Do you want me to worship you little devils? You are so fucking crazy. Yang Kai immediately yelled.
For the Chinese, the word "worship" must be used with caution. The so-called "worshiping the sky, worshiping the earth, and worshiping the parents" is a matter of course. If you ask someone else to worship you, believe it or not, even a few curses would be considered frivolous.
No, no, it’s not a visit to the Yasukuni Shrine. What I mean is that you are all welcome to visit the Yasukuni Shrine. The great monk immediately changed his mind without any resistance.
We're not here for a visit. To tell you the truth, we're here to acquire land. You guys have taken a liking to this place. From now on, this will be our Lanfang headquarters in Japan. If you don't understand, Yang Kai is welcome. We will directly state our intention without any cover-up.
It doesn't even mean anything.
This is the Yasukuni Shrine, a place where the souls of the dead are enshrined. If you use this place as a headquarters, it would be very disrespectful to you. General, please take back your order. What the great monk said is indeed not very respectful.
You are so brave to worship the dead. Believe it or not, I burned it all for you and Yang Kai was furious.
This is also one of the scheduled plans.
Since the Yasukuni Shrine is a place where the souls of the dead are enshrined, those so-called heroic spirits must have spiritual status. As for those spiritual tablets, Qin Haoge really planned to burn them all in one fire.
In this holy land of Buddhism, you must not speak lies. The great monk sacrificed the magic weapon.
Buddhists, you all know that you are monks. You eat meat, don’t drink alcohol, don’t get married, don’t have children, don’t follow the rules and regulations, and all your rules and regulations are of no use to you. You are such holy shit. Yang Kai dismisses it.
There is indeed something about drinking, eating meat, marrying a wife and having children. Although Japanese temples also consider themselves Buddhism, Japanese monks do not have the so-called monkhood. Probably since the Meiji Restoration, Japanese monks have been able to get married.
Giving birth to children, and Japanese monks are more like a family business. The director can be hereditary. I am a monk, and my son is also a monk.
You, you actually insulted the great Buddhist monk and started to label Yang Kai, trying to use the power of religion to put pressure on Yang Kai.
Buddhism, you are not worthy of Yang Kai and are ready to continue scolding.
What's going on? Qin Haoge suddenly interrupted.
There is a monument next to the gate of the Yasukuni Shrine. There are reliefs on the monument, and the carvings on it seem to be scenes of naval battles. Yang Kai took two steps to take a closer look, and suddenly turned around and yelled: You are talking about the Holy Land of Buddhism.
How come there are reliefs of the Sino-Japanese War of Sino-Japanese War in the Holy Land?
It is really the relief of the Sino-Japanese War of Sino-Japanese War. It is right next to the gate of Yasukuni Shrine. As long as anyone passes by here, they will see this monument and relief.
For the Japanese, their feelings towards the Chinese dynasty are extremely complicated. For thousands of years, Japan has been a vassal state of the Chinese dynasty. Although Japan wanted to get rid of this vassal state status several times, without exception, it was conquered by the Chinese dynasty.
The Japanese ambitions were shattered. When the time came to the end of the 19th century, Japan finally defeated the Central Plains Dynasty. Although it was not a Chinese dynasty, it was enough to make the Japanese proud. In order for everyone to remember all this,
In order to improve the self-confidence of all Japanese people, the Japanese have to engrave all this and use engraving to show Japan's martial arts.
For the Japanese, the Sino-Japanese Sino-Japanese War is indeed a source of pride, but for the Chinese, those memories are not so wonderful, especially now that the father of King Qin Zhiyuan of Lanfang was killed in the Sino-Japanese Sino-Japanese War. These memories are very important to the Chinese people.
Lanfang is even less wonderful.
Qin Haoge smashed it for me decisively.
A dozen soldiers suddenly swarmed forward with pickaxes in hand.
No, you can't smash it. The great monk and the monks behind him opened their hands and tried to stop them, but they were restrained by more soldiers.
The banging and banging sounds were like hitting the hearts of these monks. Almost all the monks cried out in pain, and a few even screamed in Japanese.
Without even looking for a translator, Qin Haoge could guess that the words were not good.
So another group of soldiers swarmed up. They knocked him down first, then tied them up with their hooves upside down, blocked their mouths with rags, and tied ropes outside the cloth, so everything was clean.
Smash it all for me, and don’t even leave the base. Since the smashing has already started, Yang Kai won’t leave any room.
Yang Kai's voice was very neat in response.
Just when Yang Kaihe gave the order, Qin Haoge had already stepped into the Yasukuni Shrine. Not to mention a Japanese monk, even a monk from the Republic of China, Qin Haoge had a cold. Under the influence of Qin Zhiyuan, Qin Haoge is now a Catholic, although only when his conscience is uneasy
Only then did I go to confession, but it was still under the name of Catholicism.
Well, recently, quite a few Lanfang officers and soldiers have gone to church to confess.
The war against Japan, strictly speaking, should be a massacre against Japan. Of course, the soldiers were able to do it on the battlefield, but when they got off the battlefield and recalled the battlefield where corpses were strewn in the dead of night, they would inevitably toss and turn, so the role of religion became
It's displayed.
Catholic confession is a very interesting form. As long as those officers and soldiers who think they have committed serious sins on the battlefield analyze themselves in the confessional of the church and tell the truth that makes their conscience uneasy, the Lord will forgive everything about this person. So this
A person can change his mind and become a new person, and continue to return to the battlefield to kill the enemy. This is simply the best way to excuse himself.
Many officers and soldiers in Lanfang did not know that Catholicism had this role before. When the word "repentance" spread throughout Lanfang, the churches in Lanfang were overcrowded.
It was at that time that Qin Haoge joined the Catholic Church.
From a Catholic standpoint, Qin Haoge had enough reasons to deal with the Yasukuni Shrine without leaving any uneasiness in his heart.
No matter how uneasy I am, the most I can do is build a church in the current Yasukuni Shrine and later the Lanfang Headquarters in Japan to repent.
The Yasukuni Shrine covers a huge area. After walking through the gate for a long time, Qin Haoge and Yang Kai saw various buildings.
The main shrine is a place where gods are enshrined. It was designed and built by Owari Tokui Toheizaemon in 1872. It is a place where ordinary people worship. The Yushukan was built in 1901 and was built in 1881. It was the largest national temple before the war.
The military museum played an important role in popularizing militaristic ideas. Yang Kai's previous work was very solid and he could serve as a tour guide for Qin Haoge.
Take out all the spiritual tablets and burn them. Find someone to come and take a look at this tourist attraction. If there are any valuable ones, send them back to Lanfang. If they are not valuable, burn them all. If you can't burn them all, throw them into the sea.
Go, if the Japanese want to worship, let them go to the sea to worship. Qin Haoge doesn't even want to enter the doors of this temple.
In the Yushukan, there are tens of thousands of relics of Japanese soldiers on display, as well as various materials about the Japanese army, weapons used by Japan in modern wars, etc. Many of them are quite valuable.
These things are placed here for people to visit and admire, but if they are returned to Lanfang, they will definitely be available for people to visit, and there will probably be no more admiration, and there will probably be no less contempt.
Corresponding to the relics are those materials, many of which are written materials, from which a lot of things Lanfang needs can be sorted out.
For example, in the current Republic of China, who are the people related to the Japanese?
