I Became the Last Princess of the Brown Bear Kingdom

---

I’m not sure how to put this, but I’m feeling pretty good right now.

Don’t you think? If there’s someone who hates hearing that China is screwed, it’s probably a Joseonjok.

Of course, the future People’s Republic of China and current China are different. But let’s be real, both Chiang Kai-shek and Soong Mei-ling were subtly trying to rival the Rome Treaty and the United States.

You have to know that a little bird will get its legs torn off trying to follow a stork.

Ah, it’s already torn, and would it be better to say it failed while trying to repair it?

“I heard that Chen Qisheng and all those doctors under him have been completely eliminated. The headquarters for the Non-Proliferation Treaty established in Chongqing has decided to directly oversee China’s nuclear development.”

“It should’ve been done earlier, tsk tsk.”

I smiled happily at Beria’s report in the National Duma.

And with a civil war breaking out too. Isn’t it just perfect?

This is exactly the picture I wanted.

With this situation, I could sell a ton of weapons, and Balhae will be able to enjoy war profits just like Japan did in the actual history.

Looking back at Korean history, during the Boxer Rebellion, the Korean Empire did experience some war profits on the sidelines, but the money made wasn’t used properly.

Well, Balhae will make a big profit this time too.

I’m not directly helping them, but isn’t there enough plausibility here to support Balhae?

Ah, this isn’t the time for that. I need to at least pretend to be sad.

I forced a sad expression.

“Something about you looks sad, Your Tsar.”

Now, Alisa Rosenbaum, who was confidently attending the Duma, caught on during the meeting and focused her gaze on me.

“You’re right. It’s just the innocent Chinese who have met their end, right? It’s like one city just vanished while conducting nuclear tests in a populated area.”

Isn’t that truly heartbreaking? That’s what I’m saying.

Well, it is pitiful that the Chinese have become the target for nuclear testing and died.

Of course, I ordered it, but that’s all there is to it.

Anyway, unless I admit it myself, domestically and internationally, it will be viewed as China being China.

“What a truly sad matter.”

Indeed, it was very tragic and sad.

How did they dumbly try to conduct nuclear research while deceiving the great powers only to end up in such a state?

I mourned deeply for the dead Chinese while maintaining a gloomy expression.

“That’s why it’s important to meet good leaders.”

Khrushchev said, clicking his tongue as if feeling pity.

Of course, just like me. Not making reckless moves and only doing what I need to do while leaving behind mere symbolism.

And the National Duma, supported by the people, the Prime Minister.

That’s the ideal image of leadership, isn’t it? The incompetent Soong Mei-ling has overstayed her welcome in the acting presidential position.

Of course, whether a leader simply serves as a symbol depends on who they are.

“Even though China has been freed from the oppression of the Colonial Empire, it is still ruled by an incompetent leadership.”

The Duma members mourned in agreement with me saying it was really unfortunate.

They’re making it clear that it has nothing to do with us. So, now’s the time to set the stage.

I may not know everything, but we need to utilize the method of passing the buck to handle this.

That stupid and ignorant Soong Mei-ling conducted nuclear tests on her own land, targeting her fellow citizens.

How magnificent is that? I wiped my tears with one hand and spoke bitterly.

“It’s a tragic matter. How could Soong Mei-ling conduct nuclear tests on cities where her own people live?”

Isn’t it a truly horrific thing?

How can someone conduct nuclear tests on their own citizens?

While making a fuss about how unfortunate it is, I let my tears fall.

Feeling pity for the Chinese who didn’t even know they were the target of nuclear tests.

“So that’s how it goes.”

So then what should we do?

If that’s the question, the answer is very simple.

Thanks to the Okhrana Southern China branch, we can move a little more greatly from this point.

I heard that the plutonium lump being experimented with at the Zhangjin nuclear research institute of the National Government went haywire.

“Let’s officially condemn Soong Mei-ling. She would be called a villain who disrupts the peace of mankind by conducting nuclear tests on her own citizens.”

SDVIMVFoanVzY1YwSVhjamMzUkt1ZjMybHVydkZoNTNycVU3VGk2WkhGNTdTVTNURGk3NEdmZmxzMTVVeEtEbw

Soong Mei-ling is a crazy woman who conducted nuclear tests on her own citizens!

This is the kind of chatter going around.

Of course, the National Government would feel wronged, and the local circumstances would be different, but still, the external perception will change.

Most importantly, it’s an excellent opportunity for the warlords to retaliate against the National Government.

They’d like to take a shot at Soong Mei-ling, who’s been relying solely on Chiang Kai-shek’s glory until now.

“Yes. Understood.”

“When will they ever prepare for peace? Isn’t it pitiful? Tsk tsk.”

How long will they keep causing trouble? The National Government has become an uncontrollable mess in the world.

That Qing Dynasty, you know. Right now, Wang Jingwei is dragging them along, making northern China even stronger than the previous Qing Dynasty.

Well, the great powers did resolve the bond issue from the old Qing Dynasty era.

On the surface, the National Government might just seem wronged.

They were sincerely trying to develop nuclear weapons to at least free themselves from the great powers’ control, but the countries that only caused pain to Chinese citizens went on unscathed as great powers, while the National Government was exceedingly weak.

“Indeed. It seems civilizing the Chinese is still a far-off story.”

The Duma members scoffed at the Chinese.

It’s merely a staged act, but to them, the Chinese only appear weak enough to submit to such slanders at this moment.

Honestly, I feel the same way.

To begin with, the children of the National Government wouldn’t even know what scheme we’re concocting.

“Still, they’re better than the African Black people. We should at least consider that a good showing.”

‘Better than the African Black people.’

Now, the National Government is getting treated like that.

It’s unfortunate, but what can be done? They must pay dearly for the crime of causing nuclear tests.

We’re making sure they can never unify again for life.

This civil war will weaken the National Government, which was doing well in Southern China.

Then, no forces capable of leading unification will emerge.

“If Southern China was included in the public interest, they would have definitely squandered our money like water. The answer is to leave it be.”

There’s no way we’re going to spend money for such a Southern China, right?

Our Rome Treaty will never spend money for Southern China!

We won’t unnecessarily jump into a unification war with the countries of Northern China.

Not to mention, they’d probably pride themselves on being qualitatively different from Southern China.

“I heard Chinese warlords are forming a coalition.”

Of course, they’re making a coalition right away. But the National Government won’t back down easily either.

The fact that the National Government conducted nuclear tests domestically will cause some unrest among the Chinese within the National Government, but still, they won’t easily lean towards the unruly warlords.

“What about Mao Zedong or Wang Jingwei?”

“There’s been no particular response from their side yet.”

They should stay silent and let the weapons be sold to both the warlords and the National Government.

In this timeline, we’re going to witness a war in Central China instead of a Middle Eastern war.

Looking at the current situation in India, it seems likely that a significant conflict will arise within the Bharat Republic. It’s truly pitiful.

The Colonial Empires were robustly bound by the Rome Treaty and worked hard to clean up, but the Chinese people, who have suffered under the great powers since the Qing Dynasty, and the Indian people under the rule of the hate-stricken countries, as well as the colonies of the Colonial Empires in Africa, have become more unfortunate even after gaining independence.

Vietnam and Indonesia may look fine on the surface, but you can’t be sure what’s underneath.

“Then it might be better to incite them to fight against each other. Let’s sell weapons to various places in China through Balhae.”

Is it possible that something will explode internally within the National Government this time? Like Soong Mei-ling’s regime being toppled and someone else rising to power?

The warlords would definitely want to capture Soong Mei-ling this time for real.

She has already made an attempt to create nuclear weapons.

What this implies is that even if she doesn’t directly oppose the US and the Rome Treaty, she could unleash the horrors of that nuclear power solely within China.

Of course, they can’t leave her alone.

They can’t spare a mad ruler who has conducted nuclear tests on her own citizens.

Aid from the Rome Treaty and the US for humanitarian issues has also decreased due to past events.

The only reason we kept some aid is that the citizens of the National Government did nothing wrong.

We decided to provide only a tiny bit of aid, just enough for Soong Mei-ling to have to think hard.

“If it looks like Soong Mei-ling will be completely defeated, let’s mediate from the sidelines.”

“Are we not getting rid of Soong Mei-ling this time?”

“There’s really no reason for us to get rid of Soong Mei-ling. This time, she should have realized her situation for sure.”

That her National Government needs to walk with its head down in the world.

If we go down the rabbit hole and look for power, the current Qing Dynasty isn’t even something to scoff at.

The Qing Dynasty has bowed its head and listens to us. What can those people do?

“Surely, having been scared once, they’ll think twice before speaking up.”

“It might even be more troublesome to form a new government now.”

“In the first place, it’s not something we can meddle in.”

That’s right. We cannot interfere in the National Government.

Given that she’s caused a nuclear accident, pulling strings to do anything directly becomes quite troublesome.

It’s not about sympathy, but if we try to overthrow the regime now, wouldn’t we face suspicion?

And our main policy isn’t about China anyway.

Even though we’ve slapped Soong Mei-ling for her nuclear development antics, we are, after all, prioritizing African issues.

The previous massacre issue still remains.

“What’s it to us that a massacre occurred in Africa? The Chinese issue is already sensitive, so we need to resolve decolonization quickly.”

Many Chinese died due to the nuclear tests.

Thanks to that, the massacres that have occurred in Africa didn’t even become a global issue, giving us the chance to swiftly resolve decolonization matters.

“Many have already perished to the extent that they can’t even set up a national system. And other black nations that have achieved decolonization have been able to take over governance without daring to rebel against us.”

The fall of the Free Territories must have felt threatening to other black people.

If they naturally crouched down because of that, then it’s not so bad.

“It would be better if they just took it easy.”

“Though, there are some issues coming from Congo.”

“Congo? If we’re talking about Congo, wasn’t Belgium the owner? What are they up to?”

I opened my mouth and yawned in annoyance.

“Isn’t Belgium the one holding onto it again?”

They aren’t trying to gather a collection again, are they?

Or is Belgium doing something in that crazy primitive manner?

Belgium can’t possibly dare to confront the Rome Treaty Organization.

“Yes, the transition of government itself isn’t difficult. However.”

“However?”

“The blacks who collaborated with Belgium were actually hired by white officers during colonial times to hunt down rebellious Congolese and were tacitly allowed to practice cannibalism. They became the ruling class of the new Congo aligned with Belgium, which means the cannibalistic practices will also continue.”

Ah, I see. Even if we’re going through decolonization, we’ve set up a government with familiar collaborators for a safe transition. If Congo follows that path, does that mean cannibals will be the government?

“But you know?”

“Since your Majesty declared the decolonization, there’s much debate about whether it’s reasonable to transfer power to those cannibals.”

Yeah, that’s a definite no.

What kind of government can be established by cannibals?

Sure, in the original history, there is also a Congo, so if you ask if we should care, then maybe not.

“Why on Earth was there cannibalism?”

“The land of Congo historically wasn’t suited for human habitation. It lacked crops to increase the population and had a poor carrying capacity. Hence they would attack other tribes to obtain people for cannibalism or kept slave figures for cannibalism.”

In other words, since there’s nothing to eat, they resorted to eating humans, right?

In Mexico, at least they sacrifice to a god or something. They could come up with excuses. Congo is just hopeless.

Even Belgium, which ruled over Congo, is the same.

“That’s truly sad. To have humans eating humans. Humanity’s history is the history of migration. Ancient humans migrated to survive. If food is scarce, they should move to another territory. Tsk. Even Belgium, while professing to civilize, indulged in cannibalism.”

“Yes.”

Belgium is always a problem.

We, too, might try to spruce up places under colonial rule to save face. But Belgium is just foolish.

It’s the small-time ones who are truly the most precious. They could at least cultivate decent collaborators. Why did they keep cannibals as collaborators?

“Whether it was during the Great War or World War II, honestly, I think the beatings Belgium received are their karma.”

Even though they’re in the Rome Treaty, I’m not pleased with this.

Can the cannibal culture of Congo truly be eradicated? While it’s true we should respect customs, isn’t it still cannibalism?

In this day and age, that’s a bit much.

“Let’s either resettle the Congolese or seriously civilize them. That goes for those who collaborated with Belgium too.”

I want to deal with Belgium, but they’re a member of the Rome Treaty Organization.

Moreover, it pertains to decolonization. Africa isn’t just about Belgium; countries like Britain and France are involved, so there’s no escaping.

“There’s no other way. Then, let’s encourage the resettlement of the Congolese and let Belgium take the lead in resolving the cannibalism issues.”

Well, it can’t be helped.

“If we leave it to Belgium, won’t they all die?”

“We’ll directly resettle through the Rome Treaty.”

We have no option but to handle this directly through the Rome Treaty.

“Not Belgium itself?”

“First, we’re going to dispose of those cannibals who collaborated with Belgium since they are judged incapable of maintaining the government.”

What century are we living in that we’re dealing with cannibalism?

Even if they are African Black people, if Belgium can exploit them, it means the cannibal culture is quite significant.

I cannot allow that kind of country to exist in my lifetime.

If the Saint approved of a cannibalistic nation, how would that turn out?

One day, my anti-fans or those from the US, competing with the Rome Treaty, might say that the saint who condoned cannibalism once feasted on the flesh and bones of Bolsheviks. That could happen too.

That would definitely be a bit much.
