You are lucky. The coup attempt seems to have stopped entirely once the last of the combatants have been dispatched by the incoming reinforcements from the Rikusentai and Special Forces.
It didn't prevent the losses incurred by the civilians though, by the time the Helicopters were on top of the attackers, unleashing their machine gun fires and rappelling down the Special Forces and Marines. Roughly 76+ Civilians lay dead at the doorstep and within Camp Nerima. A dark day for Japanese Democracy indeed.
Still, the combatants were dispatched, to the man. Any aggressor who were shocked and retreated were shot down by Rikusentai and Special Forces snipers. And so far, no one has successfully escaped.
Searching through the bodies though. It is quickly revealed that the assailants have armbands that say this.
Kempeitai.
It is clear who the assailants are, and who the most likely perpetrators were. Former Kempeitai officers who were dissatisfied by Japan's increasing liberal turn, and the perpetrators most likely include former Kempeitai high command and some suspected reactionaries within various levels of the Japanese government.
Just as everything has become clear. A sudden phone call interrupted your thoughts. You picked up the phone, and there was a ragged voice behind the call.
"Who is this?"
"It's me. General Hitoshi Imamura, I've managed to escape but I don't think they will lose my scent for any longer, Prime Minister, if you are in Tokyo, escape, a significant reactionary force is planning a takeover. I will be somewhere in Sendai if you wish to find me, but I don't think I have much time left. The coup planners kidnapped me and attempted to force me to sign fraudulent orders to the rest of the IJA. Thankfully I never signed it, but in case such fraudulent orders were given out, tell them that I did not order Imperial Japanese Troops to remove the Prime Minister and secure the Imperial Palace."
He then pledged eternal allegiance to you, and gave you the names of the various persons involved in the coup. He stressed that this is not all of them, but it is everything he can give to you as of this moment.
When you tell him that the Kempeitai force were dispatched. He felt relieved, but still stressed that you must get out of Tokyo and board an Aircraft Carrier, operations against reactionaries can be carried while you and the Emperor were in a safe location.
This is probably the last time you can issue orders. So do be quick, members of Parliament are already hearing of the events and will demand some form of explanation regarding what's happened, also issuing investigations left and right. What is your last action?
