The second volume is full of glory and splendor in the capital, and the spirit is full of vitality in the foggy city. Chapter 238: Grand Marshal (End)
Subtitle of this chapter: Orcs... and JAPS must die!
"It's it! It's it's it's it's it's it! It's it's it!!!"
They came to a wooden platform, and below the platform were countless Orientals shouting slogans and waving flags.
Many of these Orientals were wearing strange clothes, which seemed to be called "Kimono", so he knew at a glance that the people cheering for him were Japanese.
MacArthur looked into the distance and realized he was in a large city, a severely ravaged city. He saw construction sites everywhere, countless leaning and blackened buildings, and large bomb craters that had not yet been filled.
"Oh my God..."
He grabbed Dr. Yuan beside him and asked, "Where? When?"
"Douglas, this time the location is Hibiya Park in Tokyo."
Hibiya Park is located just south of Nijubashi Bridge, where the Emperor of Japan resides. This park is as famous as New York's Central Park and London's Hyde Park.
In the Russo-Japanese War of 1905, Japan's casualties and losses far exceeded those of the First Sino-Japanese War, while the gains it made lagged far behind those achieved in the First Sino-Japanese War. Furthermore, Japan waived its demand for war reparations in the Treaty of Portsmouth.
Therefore, the Japanese people held a protest rally in Hibiya Park on the day the treaty was signed, which led to the famous Hibiya Incident. In addition to protesting the "cowardly and incompetent" Katsura Taro Cabinet, they also protested the US imperialism as a "mediator".
However, after World War II, the Matsumoto Building in Hibiya Park became the dormitory area for the US Imperial Army...
History is really very interesting.
Master Yuan, still wearing the uniform of a US Army general without a rank, this time with a medal of honor on his chest, rolled his eyes and said unhappily, "This time it's 1951..."
The Medal of Honor is the highest military honor in the United States. The recipient must have "displayed extraordinary gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his life in action against enemies of the United States."
It is the only medal in the United States that cannot be legally bought or sold. Wearing it in public by anyone other than the recipient is also illegal. Violators may be fined and imprisoned for not more than one year under 18 U.S.C. § 33.704.
Mr. Yuan Yanshu was awarded this honor by his friend, President Roosevelt, in his capacity as Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, with the consent of the U.S. Congress, because he had "displayed extraordinary bravery and intrepidity" by participating in Allied military operations "at the risk of his life" as a civilian "in combat against enemies of the United States."
Therefore, he is also the only person in history who received the Medal of Honor without officially joining the US military!
But before the yellow American hero could finish, MacArthur interrupted him.
The Marshal, who was inaugurated for the third time, pointed at the dwarfs in the audience who were cheering him on and asked stutteringly, "Didn't you just say that the Japanese are our enemies?!"
“Damn it! Damn it!! Damn it!!!”
Our Master Yuan opened his eyes wide and complained, "Your Excellency, the Grand Marshal of Japan, you're still coming?!"
"Douglas, I've told you many times, this is how the Japanese are!" He said as a matter of course: "As long as you beat them into submission, scare them into submission, and make them mad at you, it wouldn't be strange if they called you 'Itazai', 'Odou-san' or even 'Oji-san'..."
Dr. Yuan tugged at his sleeve, leaned forward, and said, "Look, our 'friend' Hirohito is here too. He's the one who gave you the title of marshal. Oh, and he's the Emperor of Japan. You haven't forgotten that, have you?"
"The Emperor of Japan?!" MacArthur, still confused, couldn't help but ask, "Why did he make me a marshal?"
Our Master Yuan chuckled and said, "My Excellency the Grand Marshal of the Empire of Japan is, of course, flattering you. He hopes you won't put him on the list of war criminals. He also hopes that you and I will join in advising Washington to maintain Japan's unity..."
"The unification of Japan?!"
"Yes, Douglas. You should know that the Japanese Red Army, supported by the Soviet Union, occupied Hokkaido. Given the polar bear's habit of eating without pooping, it would probably be difficult to get them to vomit."
"Japan still has the Red Army?!"
Dr. Yuan shrugged and said, "That's right, Douglas. If you were the Japanese Kwantung Army, would you choose to go to Siberia as a prisoner of war or return to Hokkaido to join the Red Army?"
"Hmm..." MacArthur shook his head and said, "Dr. Yuan, please continue."
"Our chairman can't even stand on Taiwan anymore, and wants to use Shikoku and Kyushu as his base for revival, or more precisely, as a foothold... I have to say, this is a very imaginative idea."
Of course, the most imaginative person in the world is none other than our Dao Ketuo Yuan.
"Of course. After all, you are the Commander-in-Chief of the Allied Forces in Japan, so you are the true ruler of the four islands of Japan!"
"Mr. MacArthur! And Mr. Yuan..."
MacArthur turned his head when he heard the greeting and saw a middle-aged dwarf with glasses and a beard walking towards them.
This Skybrain Black Card not only had a respectful look on his face, but also bowed ninety degrees as he came over, saying humbly, "Your Excellencies, Hirohito is deeply overwhelmed..."
"Your Majesty, we are old friends. There's no need to be so polite." Dr. Yuan interrupted him with a smile and asked anxiously, "Your Majesty, how is the matter I told you about?"
Anger flashed across Hirohito's face, and he took a deep breath before asking calmly, "Mr. Yuan, are you talking about building a villa in Kudanzaka? Don't you think this is a bit..."
"Is it unlucky?"
"Unlucky?" Master Yuan said unhappily, his face stern. "Your Majesty, I am an atheist. I never care about auspiciousness or inauspiciousness."
He sneered and said, "Your Majesty, you won't be reluctant to give up the land by the Yasukuni Shrine to me for a villa, right?"
"You...hahaha..." Hirohito, his face filled with anger, suddenly burst into laughter. "You Chinese say that the emperor dies for his country. Well, I, the emperor of Japan, will die for my country in front of my people today!"
Dr. Yuan's face changed drastically. He took a step back and shouted fiercely, "Baga, what are you doing?"
"What should I do?!"
"Clang clang..."
The Japanese Emperor pulled out a gleaming, shining sword from somewhere and shouted, "Die!"
“Swish!”
He grasped the knife with both hands and slashed horizontally...
"..." Our Master Yuan slowly turned around and said to MacArthur solemnly: "Douglas, don't believe JAPS!”
“Plop!”
His head fell off and his body fell limp to the ground.
“Gurgle…”
Dr. Yuan's handsome head rolled to Hirohito's feet.
"Sbarasi!"
The Japanese emperor bent down to pick up the head, held it high, and shouted loudly.
And this cry is naturally: "Shame on the enemy! I'll take off her clothes!"
Unfortunately, MacArthur did not understand Japanese and had never played the Koei Dynasty Warriors series, so he did not understand the meaning of this famous line. However, he knew that he, the "enemy general", would soon be "captured".
Hirohito turned his head and looked at him, a fierce light flashed in his eyes, and he rushed towards him with a knife in one hand and the head in the other.
MacArthur habitually reached for the pistol at his waist, but he was wearing a marshal's uniform and there was no way he would carry a pistol.
Unarmed, he turned and fled, but behind him was the edge of the platform. He didn't care about the height at this point and jumped down...
“Damn it!”
The great marshal landed safely, but he found that he was surrounded by Japanese who were staring at him viciously. They who had been as docile as sheep just now had now turned into ferocious wolves!
These Japanese approached him step by step...
"FXCK JAPS!"
"Honey, what's wrong with you?!"
"FXCK..." A pretty face appeared in MacArthur's eyes, a reassuring face of a white woman.
Ms. Brooks asked anxiously, "Honey, are you okay?"
"I'm fine, but..." He immediately checked his surroundings and breathed a sigh of relief when he found that he had finally returned to the mansion on Fifth Avenue.
But he immediately remembered another important thing and couldn't help but ask anxiously, "What year is it now?"
"How many years ago..." The Queen of Pentacles, having experienced this before, smiled understandingly and said, "Don't worry, my dear. It's 1921 now. You just took a stroll on the river of your destiny."
"River of Destiny?!"
Ms. Brooks explained, "Yes, this is one of the benefits of being a formal member of the SCP Foundation. You can wander in the river of your destiny and get a glimpse of your future destiny, and it's a fragment of the future that is crucial to you!"
MacArthur hesitated and said, "But I'm not a member of your SCP Foundation."
"My dear, look inside your hand ..." The Queen of Pentacles pointed at his hand and said, "Is there a token of the SCP Foundation there?"
"According to Lord Fool... oh, Dr. Yuan, not everyone can become a formal member of the SCP Foundation. If you can't enter the river of your own destiny, then there's no way he can make you a formal member."
"But as long as you can enter the river of your own destiny, there will be a mysterious power that will accept you as a member of our SCP Foundation!"
MacArthur had discovered that he had something extra in his hand. It was a piece of parchment, but it was actually a tarot card made of a polymer material. And the card was...
"By the way, where is Dr. Yuan?"
He casually put the strange tarot card into his pocket. At this time, he realized that there were only two of them in the living room, so he asked.
"He..." Ms. Brooks bit her red lip and said, "There was an accident. He just fainted and is resting in the guest room now."
"Accident? I want to see him!"
"Okay, he also said he was waiting for you."
The two left the living room and came to the guest room not far away.
"Dr. Yuan, you..."
Seeing the pale and handsome face of the yellow man lying on the bed, MacArthur suddenly realized that Dr. Yuan was always sick because he used this magical ability.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little moved. This Chinese man was using his life to enlighten others...
"You're here?"
Our Master Yuan smiled at him, waved to the friends around him and said, "You guys go out first. Mr. MacArthur and I have something to say."
After everyone left, the Brigadier General personally closed the door, quickly walked to the bed, and blurted out, "Dr. Yuan, I saw us..."
“STOP!”
"Please don't tell me what you saw... cough cough cough..." Yuan Yan suddenly coughed a few times and frowned, "Mr. MacArthur, have you heard the saying that fortune tellers cannot tell their own fortunes?"
The Brigadier General thought for a moment, nodded, and said, "Dr. Yuan, I think I've heard of it."
"Mr. MacArthur, the principle is the same," Master Yuan explained. "I allowed you to see your future, but if your future is too closely tied to mine, I will suffer the consequences. I've just recovered from a serious illness and can't stand the pain. I didn't know it was happening, and if I had known, I would have died."
He reassured her and said, "Take Ms. Brooks for example. The future I showed her actually had nothing to do with me, so it's not a big deal. Do you understand?"
"Hmm..." MacArthur nodded again, understanding the double meaning of Dr. Yuan's words.
Yuan Yan suddenly smiled bitterly and said, "But I didn't expect that our destinies would intersect in the future, and that our intersection seems to be very important. So, I became what you see now."
"Dr. Yuan, I understand!" MacArthur suddenly realized, but he immediately asked, "Then can we change our future destiny? For example, if I see someone kill you in the future... can I stop that other person?"
"A murder case..."
Our Master Yuan considered it for a moment and then nodded, "It should be possible."
"Dr. Yuan, what if I want to stop a war?" MacArthur, who asked this question, rarely lost his military demeanor. His whole body was shaking slightly and he looked very nervous.
"A war..."
Yuan Yanshu was silent for a long time this time, then he sighed and shook his head, saying, "This is too difficult..."
"Mr. MacArthur, you are the president of West Point. I believe you are also aware of Clausewitz's saying that war is the continuation of politics, and politics is the superstructure of economics..."
"The causes of modern wars are too complex, and the hatred between the two sides did not form overnight, so..."
He spread his hands and said with a smile: "Unless we kill all the enemies, the factors of war will always be there..."
"Kill all the enemies?" MacArthur repeated thoughtfully in a low voice.
"Let's not talk about this anymore, Mr. MacArthur!" Our Master Yuan suddenly changed the subject and asked with a smile, "So, have you got the token from our SCP Foundation?"
