The Soviet Script and the CCP
The Soviet Script and the CCP's Execution: How Asian Unity Was Stolen
Subtitle: The Yellow Race Will One Day See Who the Real Traitor Was
In the repeatedly copied textbook narratives, modern Asian history appears like a play without suspense: Japan is the aggressor, China is the victim, and the Communist Party is the only savior. From this, people derive a "common sense": as long as China remains unified, it is strength externally and stability internally. Yet this "common sense" cannot withstand scrutiny. If we re-examine it with the scale of "Yellow race independence," you will discover a more brutal truth—the so-called "unified China" is precisely a massive obstacle blocking multi-centric cooperation in East Asia. Japan cannot unite with "a China encapsulated by party-state structure"; what can unite are only several realistic units of East Asia: Manchuria's industry and corridors, Mongolia's resources and grassland passages, and the eighteen provinces of Han China's markets and coastal nodes. When "China" is packaged as the only center, Pan-Asian multi-centric structure is wiped out at once, and the Yellow race community collapses with it.
Soviet Fear in the Far East and Strategic Layout
To understand this, we must bring the Soviet Union back to center stage. In the twentieth century, the Soviet Union harbored fear in the Far East: Germany to the west, Japan to the south. If Japan continued northward, Siberia's lifeline would be indefensible. Moscow was neither capable of confronting Japan alone nor willing to see a multi-centric East Asian system led by Japan, with Manchuria-Mongolia-Han provinces as its hinterland, rise. This would push the Soviet Union to the margins and sever its strategic extension to the East. Thus, a more "economical" solution was devised: use the Chinese as human shields while using the narrative of "unified China—ethnic hatred" to permanently seal off the possibility of multi-centric cooperation in East Asia.
The CCP's True Identity: Soviet Execution Machine
The Communist Party thus entered the stage, but it was never an independent entity. It was a local branch of the Soviet intelligence apparatus in China: funding, organization, line, and cadre training were almost entirely supplied by Moscow. Its historical mission was not "national independence" but executing the Soviet script. The first act of the script was to smear all "potential complementarity between Japan-Manchuria-Mongolia-Han provinces" as "aggression—treason—puppet regimes"; the second act was to forge "Chinese nation—motherland unification" as the only legitimacy, demonizing all realistic foundations of "multi-centric cooperation." When "hatred of Japan" became a new religion and "unification" became the highest morality, East Asian cooperative order was uprooted, leaving only mutual attrition.
The Underlying Logic of Geography and Industry
If we look beyond slogans at the underlying logic of geography and industry, the so-called "Japan-China alliance" was a false proposition from the beginning. "China" is not a natural nation-state but an imperialized packaging covering diverse territories, ethnic groups, and systems; it incorporates Manchuria's industrial system, Mongolia's grassland passages, and the internal and external trade networks of Han provinces under a single central political shell, then uses party-state machinery to "homogenize and downgrade" these differentiated nodes for internal mobilization and external mobilization. This homogenization does not bring synergy but instead strips each real geopolitical unit of its ability to engage in equal consultation and functional complementarity with Japan and each other. Once "unified China" becomes the only legitimate narrative, Pan-Asian multi-centric layout is sentenced to death; "China's strength" and "Yellow race independence" are not only not the same proposition but often diametrically opposed.
The Soviet Dual Pillar Strategy
The Soviet Union understood this well, so it had to solidify two pillars: forging "unification" into divine law and branding "multi-centric" as treason. The Communist Party was responsible for doing both thoroughly: in propaganda, creating moral labels of "Japan=absolute evil," "Manchuria=puppet," "Mongolia=centrifugal"; in politics, under the name of "anti-secession, anti-localism," flattening the realistic interfaces where various regions could negotiate, match, and complement with Japan. The result was that the sea-land-industry-resource closed loop that could be formed by Japan-Manchuria-Mongolia-Han coastal nodes was shattered by a whip of "unification." From then on, any discussion of cooperation with Japan first had to pass the trial of "unification-orthodoxy"; anyone proposing "multi-centric cooperation" would be labeled a "traitor." This was not historical accident but an institutionalized trap jointly sewn by Soviet security needs and CCP execution techniques.
The Power and Trap of Unification
Some might ask: isn't "unified China" strong? Of course it is, but that is internal control power, not external mutual benefit order-building power. It uses strength to maintain a single center, uses output to feed the center's legitimacy machine; it is most adept not at complex functional division with neighbors but at defining neighbors as "objects that must be assimilated or suppressed." Under this structure, "China's unification" and "Yellow race community" are mutually exclusive; as unification continuously strengthens, East Asian multi-centric cooperation can only continuously retreat—ultimately retreating to only "hatred mobilization" and "closed self-justification." This is precisely the endgame the Soviet Union was happy to see: East Asia long-term self-consuming in "unification narrative—hatred narrative," with no possibility of reorganization.
The Realistic Possibility of Multi-Centric Order
The opposite path is not fantasy. Japan's island chain and sea power capabilities, Manchuria's heavy industry and Eurasian corridors, Mongolia's energy and resource passages, and the eighteen provinces of Han China's markets and coastal manufacturing can absolutely form a complementary pattern: sea led by Japan, land connected by Manchuria-Mongolia, coastal and inland Han provinces participating in division of labor and settlement through autonomy-treaty methods. Such a multi-centric order needs no appeal to "single orthodoxy" but instead requires recognizing differences, respecting boundaries, and maintaining stability through contracts—this is the realistic path of "Yellow race independence." Unfortunately, this path was blocked by the myth of "unification" and the "fear of narrative"; the blockers were none other than the Soviet script and CCP execution.
Deeper Irony
Deeper irony lies ahead. The Communist Party went further and further on this path, institutionalizing "unification-hatred" while turning to attach to another external blood supplier at opportune moments, surviving on "orders-foreign exchange-technology." Once external blood supply backfired, it immediately shrank into a shell of "closure-internal volume-low desire" to continue maintaining the legitimacy of the single center. All costs were borne by young people and the real societies of various regions: they had to use their youth to repay the hidden tax of high housing prices, learn to hate each other under narrative pressure; they were stripped of the right to negotiate equally with Japan and each other, yet required to take pride in the myth of "unification."
Conclusion: The Stolen Future
History does not owe us answers; it only waits for us to lift the veil. Japan cannot unite with "a party-state China"; what can and should unite is Japan's functional cooperation with realistic units like Manchuria-Mongolia-Han provinces under contractual legal principles. When "unified China" is recognized as an institutional trap blocking multi-centric cooperation, the Yellow race community will regain its path forward. Then, people will understand: the so-called "traitor" is not about who shouted how many slogans, but about who used the name of "unification" to permanently steal East Asia's multi-centric future—who handed over Yellow race independence to external security scripts, and who locally completed the implementation of that handover.
The Yellow race will one day see who the real traitor was. When that day comes, the myth that "unification itself is justice" will collapse, and "multi-centric-contract-complementary" realism will return to the agenda. What was stolen was not the outcome of some war, but our qualification and dignity to construct order in this sea-land borderland based on our own differences. Once this is re-recognized, Pan-Asian will no longer be a forbidden word but will become the work manual for the Yellow race to reclaim their destiny.
