*The government and military having tensions but being chill anyways.*

*The Japanese military plotting to explode railways and blame it on the Chinese, so they can conquer Manchuria once and for all*

*The government noticing the military super sus shenanigans*

*Government feels that their power is being threatened and not respected enough*

*Their theory about the militaries plan to incriminate China thus prompting an invasion turns out to be true*

THIS IS INSUBORDINATION. We never authorized this militaristic behavior. Conflict in Manchuria is in our best interest!

We must alienate them from the chaotic Chinese and expand our empire.

F**k you government. You're useless and hindering our process to Asian domination

How dare you try to overthrow our decisions and take control for yourselves.

It was time somebody did something to get those pesky Chinese out of Manchuria

We would benefit greatly from it being ours, and they would too. The Chinese are far too messy.

We are the g****mn authority of this nation. The only thing you guys do is kill and look intimidating so one messes with us.

You're just useless pawns to us

*Army gets offended, so they gain more control than ever over the government and Japan*

Who is useless now?

*Military proceeds to bomb the south Manchurian railway and creates their ideal situation*
