In August 1931, Kenji Dohihara was appointed to Fengtian as the head of the secret service. On September 18, 1931, the Japanese Kwantung Army, under the instigation of Sakagaki Seishiro and Ishihara Kana, provoked the "September 18th Incident" that shocked China and foreign countries. On the day of the incident, Kenji Dohihara was not in Mukden because he had returned to Tokyo to report the situation. It was also because of this "coincidence" that Dohihara used this as an excuse to try to clear his name. On September 18th, Dohei Hara, who was not in Mukden, returned "in time" the day after the incident. Fengtian City, which had just experienced a catastrophe, was in a state of desolation. The usually bustling streets were empty, and the shops were closed. The daily lives of the people were not guaranteed, and there was a shortage of goods. The social order fell into chaos. In order to control the situation in Fengtian City as soon as possible and to lay a good foundation for the next step of occupying the great rivers and mountains in the northeast of China, Sakagaki Seishiro, who was the Chief of Staff of the Kwantung Army at that time, hid in his office and racked his brains to think of countermeasures. At this moment, the image of Tufei Yuan, who was short and fat, appeared in his mind. This person who dealt with the people of China all day long was the ideal candidate in his heart. It was really suitable for him to clean up this mess. The chief of Fengtian was none other than Tufei Yuan. Finally, a Japanese officer came to Fengtian City as a chief. This naked colonial rule was a great irony for the Japanese militarists who talked about "friendship between Japan and China". After taking office, Tufei Yuan immediately began to "rectify" the social security of Fengtian City and implemented tough colonial rule on the citizens. At the same time, he also instigated some old military and political personnel who had lost their national integrity to set up fake organizations such as the "Fengtian Local Autarchy Maintaining Association" and sent more than 4000 patrol officers to patrol the streets and strengthen vigilance. Under the tyranny of his high-handed policy, Fengtian City gradually returned to temporary peace.
However, behind this calm surface, the will of the Chinese people to oppose Japanese colonial rule was growing stronger and stronger. The Japanese militarist government was naturally very clear about this. In order to continue its long-term war of aggression against China, it had to think about it carefully. On October 15th, less than a month after Dohihara took office, he had no choice but to announce his resignation. It was replaced by the puppet Shi, Zhao Xinbo from Changtian Dynasty. After he resigned from his position as the chief of the Mukden Shigure, he began to "concentrate" on thinking about how to implement political reforms in Manchuria after the occupation of the "Great Japan Empire". The Chief of Staff of the Kwantung Army, Sakagaki Seishiro, advocated using this as an opportunity to completely resolve the issue of North and South Manchuria in one fell swoop and rule the entire northeast region of China as a territory of Japan. Ishihara was more experienced. He believed that in the current situation, it was not appropriate to take such an extreme approach. He should fully consider the people's hearts and the situation at home and abroad. Kenji Doihara proposed a third plan based on the compromise between the two. That was to establish a Republic of Manchuria and Mongolia with the Japanese as the leader. This Republic should be headed by Emperor Xuantong. This would reflect the so-called "autonomy" and also help Japan protect its rights and interests in the northeast. The facts proved that the later colonial rule of the Japanese Kwantung Army in Northeast China basically adopted the design of the Tufei Plain, which was to establish a puppet regime of the so-called "Five Nations Republic" headed by Emperor Xuantong. The next step was to lure the last emperor, Pu Yi, to Manchuria to become the head of Manchuria. The commander of the Kwantung Army, Honzhuang Shigeru, did not even think about it and handed this task to Dohihara Kenji.
