< Episode 327 >

October 22, 1962, Seoul, Republic of Korea.

It was the South Korean government that was most startled by the surprise request for an international meeting just eight days ago.

The United States has urgently requested a summit between the Russian Empire and a third country, and the meeting location is set in Korea.

It was the embassies of both countries and the government of the Republic of Korea that were struck by lightning. Two leaders of a superpower suddenly want to stay in their country for a few days and hold a few talks before going.

Korea was still a developing country. Things like politicians getting shot and leaving their jobs on the street, or bombs exploding in our company, have disappeared since the 1950s when the communist purge ended, but it’s not yet a level of reassurance.

Of course, it is okay to declare even temporary martial law and crack down on it tighter…. If it is a country where the supreme leaders of the two countries that control the world are at a level where they can talk openly, wouldn’t that be the case?

However, it was proposed by the United States and accepted by Russia. It wasn’t a situation where I was in a situation where I couldn’t say I didn’t like the Korean-style jjolddagu.

Government ministries held countermeasures meetings every day, and the South Korean military almost caught fire on their tails to prepare for the visit of the two giants.

The result was this.

“It’s the first time I’ve been here since I left Korea when I was young.”

“Has it changed a lot?”

“Okay.”

I laughed bitterly. As someone who has lived in the 21st century, even if I recall Korea, I will not be able to empathize with the people who live here.

I was isolated from the world I knew.

That world will never come back.

“Your Majesty, we have arrived.”

The door didn’t even open, but a roar was heard.

“hurray! Long live the Emperor!”

cheer.

I have never been to the Korean Peninsula. I never even thought of going. People I know, friends I know, and old acquaintances. family.

Because I knew for sure that there would be nothing.

“President Park Yong-man and Prime Minister Cho Yong-eun are waiting.”

“President Park Yong-man, was he the 4th generation?”

“After all, the president of South Korea is here to make sure that the politicians who have been defeated in the political battle after Syngman Rhee are gone, so you don’t have to worry about it.”

I answered so.

“The real prime minister is the president, because after re-electing the president, he can’t hold any other public office, so the president is the one that is set up to quietly retire the heavyweights.”

“okay.”

Maria’s daughter Anastasia nodded.

“Be sure to wear your body armor.”

“Looking at the atmosphere, I don’t think it’s necessary.”

“No, there are a lot of crazy people in the world.”

As I stroked my daughter’s hair, I said that and got up.

“Let’s go.”

When the door was opened, the appearance of Korea that was revealed…. To put it bluntly, it was the image or photographic material that dealt with the democratization movement. Especially when there were a lot of soldiers.

In the midst of firing artillery with rifles, in order to prevent the crowd from causing an emergency, numerous soldiers with AKMs were blocking access by making several layers of human chains.

And beyond that, it was all people, people, people. I don’t think I’ve ever seen such a large crowd at the large protests I saw as a child.

Of course, it was only a brief moment, the red carpet was over in an instant, and I entered the room.

“When President John F. Kennedy arrives, there will be a military parade on the Korean side.”

“It’s a fever meal.”

To be honest, it is true that the expectations of the Korean military parade are not very good, given that I have never been at the forefront of a military parade or even received the oath of allegiance from the entire army at both the military parade and the warship ceremony.

“Well, let’s take a look, how many hours did President Kennedy arrive?”

“Yes that’s right.”

“Then let’s talk about it, why did JFK ask for a meeting so abruptly… I’ve discussed it before, but it’s highly likely that it’s about South China.”

Kennedy’s assassination is very risky. Of course, he said he would find a way to spread that risk so that Russia would not be hit directly. It’s dangerous though.

To be honest, I don’t think it will fail, the problem is to reduce the risk without getting behind the scenes. Even the President of the United States can be removed if necessary. In fact, it is not that there are no key figures from other countries who have been removed in that way.

“I also wanted to meet Kennedy at least once. I think we should have a private conversation during the military parade.”

In the 1960s, what I was familiar with was an era in which nothing existed, but at least the sky in Seoul felt similar.

***

Korean infantrymen wearing K-5 rifles march as they step on the goose steps. Well, it was the K-5, but it’s not the original pistol, according to SVR reports, it’s an older AKM with a few minor modifications and replacing the wooden parts with plastic.

There were K-1 tanks behind the infantry carrying anti-tank rocket launchers.

To be honest, compared to the T-45, these tanks are cute enough to be considered cute. They are light tanks that weigh less than 20 tons with engines and high-satisfying power.

“This country has developed so far.”

Still, I have to say something like this.

“I think it is a good example of how far they can develop when freedom is restored to a nation that has suffered from unjust oppression and oppression. However, I think it is unfortunate that, despite the two great wars, many peoples are still suffering from oppression.”

It was Kennedy’s sentiment.

And it wasn’t something you could just skip. In a way, it might be a voice for us.

It hurts my mouth to tell you, but yes, I can be an oppressor, starting with the Poles and many other minorities in the Empire.

I do not deny that the public education I am giving them may seem like a conspiracy to destroy the national spirit to some. It is the process of destroying the nation and instilling the identity of patriotism on it.

And Russians are no exception to that genocide. What I am pursuing is that there is no such thing as ethnicity, and all those of the same nationality go forward as brothers.

Russian? Ukrainian? Belarusian? There is no such thing.

But not denying it myself, and what the President of the United States said is clearly different.

“Oppression, in that respect, I am proud that my country does not impose any discrimination against ethnic minorities. Of course, since we cannot fully control all our subjects, there may be discrimination in the private sphere, but we are trying to eliminate this kind of discrimination, at least in the public and private sectors. Just like your country is trying to end racism.”

It was a diss asking us to put the jujubes away because you guys have something cool.

“Isn’t the Empire’s fairness proven to a large extent just by being me? A stranger from a yellow man.”

“I agree.”

Kennedy immediately took a step back. Did you decide that there would be no real benefit to discussing this topic?

“But the bloodshed in Indochina is truly unfortunate. Foolish people who have not yet abandoned their imperialist notions are still oppressing millions of innocent people.”

“I totally agree. It has only been proven that condemnation at the UN level is ineffective unless it leads to military action.”

I glanced down while having a meaningless conversation.

“It is also worth celebrating that the Korean side has successfully suppressed the communist rebellion in western Japan. That unit appears to be a unit that participated in the Civil War in Western Japan.”

I said quietly as I watched the tanks follow the tanks with large-caliber machine guns overhead on a hull that appeared to be based on an American-made armored car.

“I know that the United States has never abandoned the view that colonization of all kinds must ultimately end.”

“It is still the national theory of the United States.”

“And anti-communism is also a core policy of the United States. What if the two clash and the only force resisting colonial rule is the communists?”

“……”

“In the case of our Russian Empire, even before World War II, we organized governments in exile in these countries and actively cooperated with them in returning their countries. Of course, in this country and the Republic of Korea, the winds of other powers intervened, and this country had to go to a civil war crisis for a while.”

It was a diss asking whether this country has become a mess because of you guys. In fact, it is the United States that raised Mao Zedong, and as expected, it is unlikely that anyone will be at all affected by the reputation of the United States, which is blaming every country it enters. Well.

“The United States does not like that method. In the end, there are many criticisms that such a government is nothing more than a puppet government in the United States.”

Do you not know that the regime you created is almost a puppet regime? It’s a shame we sent it to Korea like that. Look at other countries, except for North China and South Korea, you’ve become a puppet country.

“Then, which power does the United States want to win in this Indochina civil war? I know that most of the forces that are resisting the British and French Empire are the Communists, but aren’t communists the enemy of the United States too?”

If you had to choose between imperialism and communism, which one would America choose?

I asked with a smile as the US-endowed warfare—except for nuclear shells, of course—175mm self-propelled artillery and surface-to-air missile vehicles marched in ranks, and Russian-exported double-rotor helicopters flew through the skies.

“Has the United States reached a conclusion? I don’t think so, because then you wouldn’t have asked me for a summit. President Kennedy.”

I was talking. Of course, it’s bluffing.

To be precise, the country is a bluff for humans. I am not a political genius, nor do I have blue eyes over glasses that see through every human soul.

Talking about the information you gathered in advance as if you realized it at the brief military parade where I met you now.

At the heart of America, the country gives an absurd overestimation of humanity.

As the boogeyman, they block their judgment.

Even if it is revealed that their actions are being predicted, that instills fear in the sense that a huge irregular is accurately predicting their actions with limited information as if they were putting them on the palm of their hand.

This will not make America afraid of me, but it will deceive the country from cracking down on its own internals.

“Whether it’s Indochina or India, what was originally promised to be yours, we have no intention of interfering there, but it seems that the communists and imperialists are in a tangled fight, so it’s a pain in the ass. Otherwise, there is no reason for you to talk to me about imperialism.”

I lit up my eyes.

“Yeah, that’s not going to happen, we can’t support the communists, we can’t see the imperial rule continuing, so we have to destroy both, but we can’t reach out and intervene, so we have to support the guerrillas, but we have to support the guerrillas, In a situation in which the communists receiving the communists occupy the core of the rebel forces in Indochina, the proper nationalist forces desired by the United States must block the South China route to suppress the communist forces. It wouldn’t be strange to have decided to take this opportunity to collapse, so the purpose of this summit is to stop North China’s southward advance even if South China collapses? If we seize hegemony in Asia, the US position will be very difficult. Therefore, an invasion of South China is planned soon.”

Kennedy’s face darkens.

Of course, it was all the information he got through a spy, but at least Kennedy would seem to have found out on the spot based on the few words he unconsciously uttered, his facial expression, and circumstances.

You might think it’s nonsense, but the country makes things that don’t make sense make sense. To be honest, if you think about how you look abroad, you will know.

He started as an orphan, rose to the top of the empire, took over the collapsed empire, rebuilt a great empire, and defeated the whole of Europe alone.

It cures incurable diseases, wins wars, and develops the economy with no chance.

Don’t you think it’s not unusual for such an existence to infer all circumstances from just a few circumstances? Isn’t there a saying that something that happens twice will always happen again?

“It will be difficult for the US military to move directly, so it will be difficult to get congressional consent, and will it be either to provoke public opinion about the war by making their own moves, or by forming a unit of South Chinese exiles and making a surprise landing? It seems to me that you would choose the latter rather than a self-made play that would require the sacrifice of your own people.”

Both of them know that it is a document that has been submitted to Kennedy for approval. Operation Northwoods, Operation 40.

Officially both are friends, but ignoring Northwoods, Operation 40 even knows that Kennedy is seriously considering it, even as a military deterrent.

However, from Kennedy’s point of view, it must be like being possessed by a ghost. Why? It’s like reading your own thoughts.

Of course, I know that Kennedy eventually approved the Bay of Pigs attack in the original history, so it’s a different story.

“To preface the answer, the Russian Empire already has enough ports to advance into the Pacific Ocean… and the unification of China will be the birth of another Anglo-French empire. So I promise you that the problems you are worried about will not happen.”
