Federico y Amorós analizan la Feria de Sevilla destacando a Morante de la Puebla y la previa de la novillada de Alcurruén en San Isidro 2025. "No salimos no salimos de Sevilla y ya entramos en San Isidro", ha apuntado Federico Jiménez Losantos en el comienzo de Al Alimón, la sección taurina de Es la Mañana que hace junto a Andrés Amorós durante las ferias de Sevilla y San Isidro. En la edición de este martes han hecho un resumen de los festejos celebrados estas últimas semanas en la Real Maestranza de Caballería y la previa de la novillada de Alcurrucén en la Monumental de Las Ventas. Una de las cosas que ha destacado Amorós es que en los tendidos de Sevilla ha habido "una cantidad de gente como yo creo que no he visto nunca. Estaban muchísimos días con el cartel de No Hay Billetes y los otros días casi todo lleno". El cronista ha dicho que "la gente tiene ganas de ir a los toros" y que eso es un "éxito enorme" del ministro de Cultura, Ernest Urtasun, por su persecución personal contra la tauromaquia. Amorós ha destacado que es "gracias a él". En cuanto a lo sucedido en el ruedo maestrante, Andrés Amorós ha destacado las actuaciones de Morante de la Puebla, pero antes ha hablado del estado de las ganaderías. Ha dicho que "los toros están regular" y que "el tercio de varas es puramente simbólico" y que eso "indica la decadencia del toro bravo". Sin embargo, ha dicho que hubo "dos corridas muy buenas, la de Alcurrucén y la de Santiago Domecq", también "una de Juan Pedro Domecq muy buena dentro de su línea" y "luego toros sueltos que salen en todas las ganaderías buenas aunque salga la mayoría de la corrida regular". Cree que algunos ganaderos "buscando un toro noble, colaborador y que se deja (expresiones terribles)" esto "acaba en la falta de casta, en la falta de fuerza y en la falta de emoción". Ha advertido que "en Madrid hay un poquito más de exigencia que en Sevilla". Sobre los toreros ha dicho que "sólo uno ha abierto la Puerta del Príncipe: David de Miranda". Un matador de toros que "tiene muchísimo mérito". Ha indicado también los que han cortado "dos orejas" y que son: Morante, Roca Rey, Borja Jiménez, Manuel Escribano y Pepe Moral". Andrés Amorós ha indicado que tiene "mérito especial lo de Pepe Moral con los Miura y lo de Escribano con los victorinos"."La feria de Morante" Andrés Amoros ha explicado que "sin duda esta ha sido la feria de Morante y se recordará absolutamente". Ha contado que "sorprendió" rescatando suertes antiguas y "lo que ha demostrado es una entrega y una regularidad como hace tiempo que no tenía". Federico ha recordado cómo el torero de La Puebla del Río "en el año del Covid asumió la responsabilidad". "Ahora, después de la enfermedad, otra vez ha dicho, voy a estar ahí. ¿Cuánto le durará? No lo sabemos. ¿En qué estilo torea? Yo lo resumo muy rápido: no es Joselito el Gallo, es Rafael el Gallo. Hace pinturerías y cosas que la gente no conoce y se va del toro con una gracia… Ahora bien, el centro de la faena: verónicas y naturales. Verónicas magníficas y naturales muy cerca y jugándose el tipo. Tiene valor", ha indicado el cronista. Amorós ha dicho que el papel de Morante "ha sido magnífico" y que "ha ayudado a una cosa bonita que es que en Sevilla se hablaba de toros porque ha sido el acontecimiento y todo el mundo comentaba lo de Morante". Además de las actuaciones del genio de La Puebla, el cronista ha destacado las actuaciones de Daniel Luque y Miguel Ángel Perera porque son toreros "poderosos". "El problema es que la espada está impidiendo" que triunfen y, según Jiménez Losantos "ambos se venden muy mal". Son "dos toreros muy serios y que están muy bien", ha añadido Amorós. Otro matador de toros que ha destacado es a "Manuel Escribano" que "está estupendamente para las corridas duras". Andrés Amorós ha criticado "el comportamiento del público". "Yo lo siento muchísimo. Amo y respeto a Sevilla, me encanta ir allí, pero la decadencia del público es evidente, como de la España actual", ha indicado. El cronista ha cargado con "el paso de cubatas de Gin Tonic continuo" que "es terrible" y que produce "un desbarajuste y una falta de exigencia muy grande". Ha reiterado que siente "mucho, sobre todo, una cosa que es que Sevilla tenía una sabiduría, un sentido de la medida y una prudencia" ya ya no tiene y que es "lo que ha sido Sevilla y lo que debía seguir siendo de alguna medida".De Sevilla a Madrid Aunque la Feria de San Isidro 2025 lleva ya tres tardes y una Puerta Grande descafeinada de Talavante hoy se celebra la primera novillada del ciclo. La terna se se presenta en Las Ventas en este encierro de Alcurrucén. Amorós ha dicho que hoy se incorpora a San Isidro y que en Madrid sí que hay un "sector que cumple su papel" y que "aunque a veces se equivoca, pero claro, los exigentes pues también ayudan". De la novillada de Alcurrucén ha comentado que es una ganadería "interesante" que "ha tenido éxito en Sevilla". Ha contado que "es de encaste Núñez" lo que "quiere decir que suelen salir abantos o distraídos muchas veces" y que "depende también a veces del que lidia" para que "al final saque un fondo de nobleza muy grande". Es "es un cartel interesante: Sergio Sánchez, Aarón Palacio y Javier Zulueta". De la terna ha dicho que a Sergio Sánchez no lo ha visto y que por eso no opina sobre él. De Zulueta ha explicado que es "el príncipe heredero de Sevilla" y que allí "lo quieren muchísimo porque es de la familia de los alguacilillos de la plaza". "Es un jovencito rubio, muy guapo, muy fino y torea con mucho gusto, muy delicado. Va a tomar la alternativa ya. Vamos a ver si es capaz de dominar a los toros, además de conseguir la estética", ha apuntado. El tercero de los que se presentan esta tarde en Las Ventas es Aarón Palacio un novillero aragonés que "nos deslumbró y nos ganó a todos porque torea de verdad, pero dentro del clasicismo, sin hacer tonterías". "Yo le he visto ganarse al público en plaza exigentes" y "la exigencia, sin llegar al exceso, es necesaria. Y si no exiges, pues todo se cae, naturalmente", ha finalizado Amorós.

Federico y Amorós analizan el final de la Feria de Sevilla en la que han destacado Morante, David de Miranda y Pepe Moral. La Feria de Abril de Sevilla ha terminado y ha demostrado que Morante de la Puebla ha regresado en su mejor registro. En la sección Al Alimón en Es la Mañana, Federico Jiménez Losantos y Andrés Amorós han comentado los últimos cuatro festejos del serial sevillano. En estos días la Maestranza se ha llenado de público buscando ver las faenas de los principales toreros del escalafón y a la espera de la inspiración del genio de La Puebla del Río, el gran destacado de lo que llevamos de temporada taurina en la capital andaluza. Amorós ha dicho que tiene "mucha prevención a la literatura barata en los toros, que es una peste horrible", pero ha reconocido que "la verdad es que la Maestranza es una maravilla". Ha contado que "hay un sitio en el que te asomas y ahí tiene una terraza que da al río y allí se ve Triana y se ve el río yendo hacia la desembocadura. Bueno, en la caída de la tarde, una maravilla". El cronista ha comentado de manera cronológica lo sucedido de jueves a domingo en el ruedo de la Maestranza. El jueves "salió una corrida de Juan Pedro Domecq buenísima, pero buenísima que quiere decir dulcísima porque es que no tenía casi ningún el mínimo de problemas que puede tener un toro bravo". "Hombre, siempre lo tiene, pero si yo fuera torero, ¿qué toros querría matar? Pues por comodidad esos, naturalmente, pero como aficionado a mí me gustan toros que tenga más fuerza, más poder y que planteen más problemas. Así es donde se ve el que vale y el que no", ha explicado. "Unos toros tan dulces tienen también un inconveniente que la gente no se suele dar cuenta y que es que descubren lo que lleva cada uno dentro. Porque, claro, si con esos toros no estás de maravilla, ¿qué va a pasar?", ha dicho Amorós que ha destacado que "Urdiales, pues torea con clasicismo; Castella tiene oficio, pero no tiene arte y con esos toros dice muy poco; y Pablo Aguado, pues al revés: tiene arte sin oficio. Tiene una cosa muy rara, que está muy bien, que es una cierta naturalidad, pero es que no cuaja los toros. Entonces se ha convertido ya en un mito sevillano como Ortega, pero todavía cuaja menos que Ortega las faenas", ha dicho.Morante deslumbra por Rafael El Gallo A continuación ha hablado del festejo del viernes en el que se lidiaron en Sevilla "muy malos toros de Garcigrande, los que eran favoritos del Juli". Ha dicho que "en Sevilla, han salido muy malos" pero "fue una gran corrida" en la que Morante ha demostrado que "está extraordinario". Amorós ha destacado que el torero de La Puebla del Río "es un verdadero genio" y ha contado que aunque "todo el mundo dice que la referencia es Joselito el Gallo" él está toreando por "Rafael el Gallo, que era un señor que sabía muchísimo". Ha dicho que la diferencia es que Rafael "tenía mucho miedo" y que "Morante tiene menos. La ventaja es que Morante es más valiente que Rafael el Gallo, pero que le hacía a los toros cosas de una belleza y de una fantasía extraordinaria". "Entonces Morante deslumbra a la gente con serpentinas, con toda clase de adornos con el capote, pero lo que tampoco se da cuenta la gente es que detrás de eso y las largas a una mano y todo eso la base de la faena sigue siendo verónicas maravillosa y naturales maravillosos". El cronista ha explicado que Morante "es un torero clásico y lidiador y que, además, puede con los toros". Ha animado a los aficionados a que "vayan a ver a Morante, si pueden". Ha destacado que "de momento está toreando extraordinariamente". En la corrida de ese día también torearon Daniel Luque y Tomás Rufo. Del primero ha dicho que frente a Morante está "en otro tipo de estilo". Pero que "demostró que ahora es el mejor lidiador, sin duda ninguna". Ha dicho que "con un toro malísimo de Garcigrande Luque se metió con él jugándosela y dándote todas las ventajas y consintiéndole y acabó haciéndole faena". "Un lidiador que con un toro que es un mansazo acaba convirtiendo en un toro relativamente bueno y hace una gran faena es una cosa extraordinaria", ha apuntado. Sin embargo, "el presidente no se enteró y no le dio ni la oreja después de matarlo bien". "Luque: maravilloso dentro de su línea, que es no la de Morante, y Rufo, pues un peldaño por abajo, porque es más joven, pero dentro de los jóvenes pues es de los mejores que hay ahora, escuela toledana, mando y temple y está bastante bien".David de Miranda, por encima de Roca Rey El sábado se lidiaron toros de El Parralejo para Cayetano Rivera, Roca Rey y David de Miranda. Salieron "todos muy malos, muy flojos, salvo uno muy bueno", ha dicho Andrés Amorós. El cronista ha recordado que "ese día fue el de la despedida de Sevilla de Cayetano". Del matador de toros de dinastía ha dicho que "tiene casi 50 años y ha aprendido a torear tarde. Tiene sus límites y bueno, pues está bien. Le despiden con cariño. Una cosa muy de Sevilla es que justo al antes de empezar la faena ya empezaron a tocar el pasodoble Juncal. Un detalle cariñoso y ya está". "Luego toreaba Roca Rey, que el día anterior estuvo bastante bien y al borde de la Puerta del Príncipe. Roca Rey, que es sin duda el más taquillero, y supongo que el que más cobra, pero el cartel, hombre, lo que yo quiero es a un Roca Rey que rivalice con los de su nivel y con todos los respetos, un cartel de Roca Rey con Cayetano y con David de Miranda, hombre, eso es pasarse. Económicamente para el empresario, oye, pues es bueno, pero para el aficionado mídase usted con los grandes. Es como si el Real Madrid juega siempre con un equipo en principio inferior, ¿no? Y además eso tiene un peligro que es que a veces acaba saliendo mal", ha reflexionado. "¿Qué le pasó a Roca Rey?", se ha preguntado Amorós. "Que la vez anterior había estado bien y esta vez los toros no fueron buenos y entonces empezó a producir una división de opiniones fuerte, hubo frases que se escucharon muy bien en el silencio de la Maestranza y que no le gustaron, como es lógico. Entonces se encaró con el público de sol y no pasó nada y se fue de la Feria con dos silencios, algo regular para una figura", ha indicado. David de Miranda El que se llevó el triunfo que el onubense David de Miranda, que "era el el más modesto en principio, ya que torea poco". Este torero !se jugó la vida absolutamente, cortó orejas y abrió la Puerta del Príncipe y ya está. Entonces merece un poquito de atención de los empresarios", ha dicho.Fin de Feria con la corrida de Miura Como es tradición desde hace ya bastantes años el broche a la Feria lo puso la corrida de Miura que lidiaron Manuel Escribano, Pepe Moral y Esaú Fernández. Ha contado Amorós que "los miuras salieron como siempre, complicados" y que "los seis toreros toros fueron a portagayola y yo creo eso no lo había visto nunca en ninguna corrida". "Escribano no tuvo suerte" porque le tocaron "unos miuras muy complicados y ya está. No acabó bien la feria, pero se ha anunciado como una figura matando las de Victorino, Santiago Domecq y Miura. Para quitarse el sombrero", ha destacado Amorós. El cronista ha dicho que "Esaú Fernández tuvo voluntad y lo de Pepe Moral fue una cosa muy conmovedora". Ha recordado que "Pepe Moral es un torero sevillano con mucha clase, pero que había decaído su ánimo. Entonces se fue a América y ahí estaba rehaciéndose. Ayer salió de verdad a hacer lo que hiciera falta para recuperar el sitio. Cortó una oreja en cada uno, se la jugó y además con buen estilo, o sea que estuvo bastante bien".

Andrés Amorós analiza la corrida de Victoriano del Río de la Feria de Sevilla con Perera, Roca Rey y Juan Ortega. La Feria de Abril sevillana, que este año se está desarrollando en mayo, está dando sus últimos coletazos y cada día deja momentos memorables. En Al Alimón, la sección taurina de Es la Mañana de Federico, Andrés Amorós ha contado lo sucedido en la corrida de Victoriano del Río en la que destacó un nombre propio: Andrés Roca Rey. El matador de toros peruano y una de las principales figuras del toreo actual cortó dos orejas y se quedó cerca de abrir la Puerta del Príncipe en su primera participación en el serial sevillano de 2025. Se colgó el cartel de No Hay Billetes en una tarde en la que también trenzaron el paseíllo Miguel Ángel Perera y Juan Ortega. Amorós ha contado que "ayer era día de fiesta en Sevilla para que los sevillanos pudieran ir a la Feria" y eso supuso "un récord de gente" en un "año fresco, con nada de calor". Los toros de Victoriano del Río salieron "muy nobles, algunos un poquito flojo, pero nobilísimos" y "Miguel Ángel Perera no cortó orejas, pero confirmó que está en un gran momento, muy poderoso y muy bien". Sobre Juan Ortega ha dicho que "lo esperan en Sevilla y lo siguen esperando porque da algunas verónicas con arte y algún doblón muy bonito, pero no cuaja una gran faena y se despide de la Feria con dos silencios". "Bueno, pues habrá que seguir esperando", ha añadido el cronista.Roca Rey, cerca de la Puerta del Príncipe Andrés Amorós ha dicho que Roca Rey "tuvo muchísima suerte porque le tocó un lote directamente de Puerta del Príncipe, pero lo aprovechó dentro de su estilo. Lo aprovechó plenamente". "Lo que pasa es que a los más exigentes sevillanos ese estilo de Roca Rey no es el que les gusta más", ha explicado Amorós que ha insistido en que el peruano tuvo un "lote estupendo". "Ya en el primer toro cortó las orejas claramente porque era nobilísimo y le hizo de todo, por la derecha, por la izquierda, toda clase de muletazos y, claro, era de prever que en el último bastaba con una oreja" para abrir la Puerta del Príncipe. "Le salió un toro todavía mejor y lo toreó también bien, pero el toro se acabó pronto y se rajó. Lo que pasó es que él, que ahora ha recuperado el sitio con la espada, ayer, en el momento decisivo, en el sexto toro, falló porque pincho y perdió la Puerta del Príncipe simplemente por la espada. Pero ha quedado muy bien dentro de su estilo y confirma claramente que es el torero más taquillero y al que la gente sigue más", ha contado Amorós. El cronista ha lamentado la presencia de "un público de feria, un público muy festero" que "para pedir la oreja hay gente que no la pide aplaudiendo o sacando el pañuelo, sino que se llevan los dedos a la boca dando unos pitidos. Eso no era el público de Sevilla ni debe serlo".El final de la Feria de Sevilla 2025 Este jueves, viernes, sábado y domingo llega la traca final de la Feria de Sevilla de esta temporada con primeras figuras y buenos toreros. Andrés Amorós ha recordado que "hoy jueves hay un cartel un poquito menos brillante" en el que "va a torear un torero que para el gran público a lo mejor no es tan conocido, pero que es muy buen torero clásico: Diego Urdiales". Ha recordado que "a Curro Romero, cuando le preguntaron ¿Quién le te gusta? ¿Cómo torea? Dijo que Urdiales, que torea con un estilo clásico". El cronista ha dicho que es "muy bueno" y que aunque no tenga "un gran éxito seguro que algunos pases buenos va a dar". Al matador de toros le acompañan Sebastian Castella y Pablo Aguado y lidiarán un encierro de Juan Pedro Domecq. De la corrida del viernes ha dicho que es "un gran cartel" y que puede ser "un día tremendo" porque "vuelve Morante de la Puebla con Daniel Luque nada menos, y con Tomás Rufo, que sabes que de los jóvenes es uno de los mejores. O sea que el viernes es una corrida muy muy importante, pero también te recuerdo que el viernes empieza la de San Isidro, porque es que este año se solapan. Y claro, pues no se puede estar en los dos sitios a la vez". Los tres matadores de toros lidiarán toros de Garcigrande. Amorós ha comentado que el sábado es "la segunda corrida de Roca Rey" además de "la despedida de Cayetano" de la plaza de Sevilla junto a David de Miranda y toros de El Parralejo. El domingo se pone el broche final con la tradicional corrida de Miura con Manuel Escribano, Pepe Moral y Esaú Fernández. Una corrida que se televisará en abierto para todo el mundo por Canal Sur como se podrá ver en TeleMadrid la Feria de San Isidro al completo. Para Amorós es "la forma por la que muchísima gente conoce el mundo de los toros y se aficiona".

Last time we spoke about the Jiangqiao Campaign and resistance of Ma Zhanshan. Ma Zhanshan, born in poverty in 1885, rose to prominence through his exceptional skills and military service. Appointed acting governor of Heilongjiang during the 1931 Mukden Incident, he defied orders to surrender to Japanese forces. Leading a spirited defense of the Nenjiang Bridge, Ma's troops repelled repeated Japanese assaults despite heavy casualties. His resistance inspired national pride and drew global attention. Ultimately outnumbered, Ma's forces retreated, but his bravery became a symbol of Chinese resistance to invasion. On December 7, Japanese and puppet troops attacked Sanjianfang, but Chinese forces, led by Ma Zhanshan, mounted a fierce counterattack, inflicting heavy casualties. Despite being outnumbered and lacking resources, the defenders showcased remarkable bravery, even shooting down an enemy aircraft. After intense fighting, Ma's troops withdrew to avoid further losses, facing starvation and exhaustion. Though Qiqihar fell to the Japanese, Ma's resistance inspired national pride and calls for unity against the invaders, drawing support from across China.   #141 The First Tientsin Incident Welcome to the Fall and Rise of China Podcast, I am your dutiful host Craig Watson.

If you are still hungry for some more history related content, over on my channel, the Pacific War Channel where I cover the history of China and Japan from the 19th century until the end of the Pacific War. This episode is going to be dealing with an old friend of ours, Mr Colonel Kenji Doihara. Now I don't think I dabbled much in the early history of Doihara, so where better to start. Doihara was born in Okayama City of Okayama prefecture in 1883. He attended military preparatory schools in his youth and would graduate 16th of his class at the Imperial Japanese Army Academy in 1904. His first assignment was to an infantry regiment as a junior officer, before he returned to school where he graduated 24th in his class at the Army Staff College in 1912. During his military and academic years he learnt how to speak Mandarin fluently, alongside picking up some other Chinese language dialects. Because of his language skills he was chosen for military intelligence, specifically targeting China. During the early 1920's he took up various postings in Northern China. During 1921-1922 he took part in the Siberian Intervention. In 1926 he was attached to the 2nd IJA regiment, the next year the 3rd IJA regiment. In 1928 he took an official tour of China attached to the 1st IJA Division. It was that same year he was made a military adviser to Zhang Zuolin, whose death he most certainly had a heavy hand in. In 1929 he received a promotion to Colonel and was given command of the IJA 30th regiment. In 1931 he was made head of the special service section of the Kwantung Army stationed in Mukden.  As we are quite now familiar with, Doihara was part of the team that engineered the Mukden incident. It was he who ordered Lt Suemori Komoto to place and detonate the bomb on the tracks. Doihara would become a key agent during the conquest of Manchuria, being one of those specialists who helped facilitate cooperation between the Manchurian officials such as Zhang Haipeng, Zhang Jinghui and Xi Qia. However Doihara also performed covert operations during this time period, quite bold in scale. Believe it or not one of these rather insane operations would be to try and restore the Qing Dynasty. Shocking I know, who would want that old corrupt thing restored? You would be surprised how many old Manchu loyalists were still kicking around and how many youth saw China to be such a pit of despair, they would rather turn the clock back to a time they assumed was better for China.  The Japanese had sunk their teeth into two provinces of Manchuria and only needed to seize the last one for total conquest of China's northeast. On September 22nd a secret meeting was held in the Kwantung Army chief of staff office. There Doihara presented a new plan to ensure the establishment of a new puppet state in Manchuria and possibly inner Mongolia. The plan was to kidnap the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty, Puyi. After the Xinhai revolution, Puyi continued to live in the forbidden city, however in 1924 he was expelled by Feng Yuxiang and took refuge in the Japanese concession in Tientsin. Puyi had met with many Japanese military and civilian leaders during his stay in Tientsin. He had a distant relative and occasional house guest named Yoshiko Kawashima who just happened to be a close confidant of Doihara. Doihara and his like minded colleagues presented Puyi with a scheme, they would seize Manchuria and restore the Qing throne over it, forming a new state with Puyi as its emperor. For Puyi it seemed like a stepping stone to restoring Qing rule over all of China, but he certainly feared becoming a puppet to the Japanese. Doihara planned to kidnap Puyi, but he had a tight timetable as it was going to be necessary to depart from the port of Yingkou, which was soon to freeze over. Therefore his operation needed to be concluded prior to November 16th. Doihara was a meticulous man in his work, but his plan was leaked. The Japanese foreign Minister Kijuro Shidehara had learnt of his scheme to kidnap Puyi and instructed the Japanese consul general at Tientsin to oppose Doihara. On November the 1st, the Consul-General contacted Doihara, but Doihara responded that if the Emperor was willing to risk his life by returning to Manchuria, it would be easy to make the entire affair seem as if it was instigated by Qing restorationists. He further added that he would talk to Puyi and if he was unwilling, he would dispatch a telegram to the military authorities at Mukden to call the entire operation off. The next day, Doihara visited Puyi and told him the time was ripe and there would never be an opportunity like such again. He stated Japan would recognize him as the Emperor of an independent Manchu state and form a military alliance with said state against China proper if they attacked. Puyi dragged his foot on the issue without giving a concrete answer. Meanwhile the consul-general continued to dissuade Doihara, and a Chinese newspaper in Tientsin called Yishie reported on November 3rd, that Doihara had secretly come to the city and was taking a residence in Tokiwa Hotel. The next day the same newspaper confirmed that Doihara had come to the city for a few days. Under stress, Doihara resorted to a very Doihara scheme. He sent Puyi a bomb in a basket of fruit with a threatening letter allegedly from the Iron Blood Group. He also planned a riot. Doihara hunted down 2000 Chinese, bandits, triads, soldiers, hooligans, drug addicts and such. He used the foreign concession as a HQ and began issuing the men weapons procured from Itagaki. They were going to be unleashed on November 8th and they would attack targets such as the Hebei Provincial Government building, the Public Security Bureau and a police station near the Jingang Bridge. Allegedly each man was paid 40 Mexican dollars by their Japanese agents. The rioters would be colloquially known as the plainclothes members, as they were dressed in civilian attire. One of their members, a man named Ma Longting who was later captured by Chinese authorities, under interrogation stated they had received arms from the “International Apartments” ie: Japanese officials at the concession and likewise received training from the Japanese. "My detachment was located at No. 5 Yuqingli in the Japanese Concession. The detachments were stationed in the International Apartments and Huazhong Apartments. We received guns from the International Apartments. The first detachment received 20 pistols; the second detachment received 25 pistols; the third and fourth detachments each received 20 pistols. Each gun had 100 bullets. The meal allowance for each person was 1 yuan, 60 cents, or 40 cents a day. I received a total of 5,000 yuan (the currency at the time). After receiving the guns, the detachments were divided into Zhongyuan Company, Weishengchi, Laojiuzhang, and Luzhuangzi to deploy defenses in order to attack the Chinese area. The Japanese followed with guns to supervise us. When we reached the Sino-Japanese border, the Japanese retreated and put up an electric fence. We were caught in a dilemma and were captured." Another captured plainclothes member, named Zhang Jinhai gave his life story and involvement during interrogations. He had lived in a small house at Taikoo Wharf in Tanggu. He made a living unloading cargo from ships, earning roughly 20 cents a day. A man had approached him to asking if he would take up a job as a plainclothes. He agreed and went through intense training under Japanese officers every day and was paid 20 cents per day. At 1pm one day, he alongside 7 other members each carrying a pistol, boarded a train for Tientsin. There they were to assemble at QianDezhuang for further information. However before he could do so he was captured at East Station near the East floating bridge. The riots were done by two separate plainclothes teams who were manipulated and supported by Japan. The first rioted from the evening of November 8th to noon of the 20th, the second from the 26th to the 30th.  On the night of the 8th, the Japanese garrison HQ ordered a large number of plainclothes to depart the Japanese concession to suddenly and violently attack the Chinese government offices. This was intentionally done during a time period in which there was meeting with the League of Nations on the 12th. Therefore obviously the Japanese were eager to make it seem Chinese hooligans, such as the notorious Green or Red Gangs were creating havoc in Tientsin prior to said meeting. The Japanese hoped this would provide an excuse for not having to withdraw their troops in Manchuria as the Kwantung army at this time was attacking the Jinxi area. Many Japanese officers believed the Manchurian army would not resist and simply retreat once the riots broke out. It would mean Tientsin was within their reach and would dramatically alter the North China situation.  Wang Shuchang, the chairman of Hebei's provincial government and Zhang Xueming the Mayor of Tientsin and director of its security bureau were informed 3 days prior to the riots from the a Special Agent team of the Public security Bureau that "the Japanese military and consulate stationed in Tianjin have instigated our frustrated military personnel Zhang Bi, Li Jichun , some leaders of the Tianjin Green and Red Gang, and famous bandit leaders Cao Huayang, Xiao Yunfeng, Gao Pengjiu, etc. to organize plainclothes teams to carry out riots." After receiving said report, Wang Shuchang convened a joint meeting of provincial and municipal military, political and security officials to come up with countermeasures. He divided the security police teams into groups and placed them all on high alert, issuing out guns and ammunition. He proclaimed during the meeting "I am a soldier and have the responsibility to defend my territory. If there are riots and disturbances in Tianjin, we must adapt to the circumstances, use a combination of firmness and flexibility, think carefully, and make appropriate plans to resolve them. But I will never be like Zang Shiyi (Zang was the chairman of the Liaoning Provincial Government when Japan attacked Shenyang), a national sinner, and let the elders and brothers of Tianjin scold me for being incompetent." He then slammed the table and adjourned the meeting. Some gangsters and bandits gathered by the Japanese were familiar with the special forces of the Public Security Bureau. They reported that the uprising was initially planned for the evening of the 7th. However, due to the heightened alert and concerns for the young emperor Puyi, the Japanese military camp temporarily informed them to postpone the attack to the evening of November 8th. At that time, the alarm bell at the Japanese military camp in Haiguang Temple rang, signaling the plainclothes team to mobilize. Using Datong Apartment to the west of Zhongyuan Company in the Japanese Concession and Wanguo Apartment on Furong Street as their bases, they advanced toward Machang Road, Caochang Temple, and the fish market area, opening fire on us. Simultaneously, the Japanese Concession had arranged for security at various key intersections, with the Japanese garrison and military police also deploying together. That night, over a thousand volunteers organized by Japanese expatriates in the concession were armed and stationed at important roads. The Japanese military police, believing that the plainclothes team they had organized was merely a mob incapable of fighting, actually fired weapons in the Japanese Concession to rally them. The sounds of gunfire echoed throughout the night. Two hours prior to the plainclothes team's assault, the security team and the Public Security Bureau implemented the strategy devised by Chairman Wang. To manage the ensuing chaos, a temporary curfew was imposed, and all traffic at intersections near the Japanese concession was completely halted. The security teams set up their defenses in accordance with Chairman Wang's directives. He also instructed all officers and soldiers of the Tenth Army to prepare for the defense of Tianjin at a standard readiness level and to brace for a large-scale invasion by Japanese forces landing in Tanggu. Around 10:30, a plainclothes team of approximately 2,000 individuals emerged from the vicinity of Haiguang Temple in the Japanese Concession, following their prearranged plan. The Japanese provided cover and oversight from behind, firing into the Chinese territory. They successfully seized control of six stations in the first district of the Public Security Bureau in Nanshi, close to the Japanese Concession, as well as six stations in the second district at Haiguang Temple, while separately harassing the south gate of Dongmalu. The first captain of the security battalion, Bai Lunbi, and the third captain, Li Yinpo, led the security team and police in a courageous effort to block and repel the attackers step by step. By around noon, the six stations in the first district were reclaimed. However, the plainclothes team continued their assaults on various locations. That night, over ten rioters from the plainclothes team and numerous firearms were captured. Upon inspection, most of the weapons were Japanese-made Type 38 rifles and new guns produced by the Shenyang Arsenal in Northeast China, which had not yet been delivered to us. The riot orchestrated by the plainclothes team, under the guidance and manipulation of the Japanese garrison, transformed the once-thriving Tianjin into a ghost town overnight. Even Asahi Street, typically bustling with activity, was left deserted. Around 1:00 a.m. on November 9, plainclothes teams launched coordinated attacks from various intersections. One group targeted the Public Security Bureau from the northern gate but was unsuccessful due to heightened security. Meanwhile, another plainclothes unit disrupted the South City and assaulted the Second District Six Office, leading to a retreat of the police forces. The Japanese soldiers then took control of the office and raised their flag. In the southeast corner of the city, at Caochang Temple, a fierce battle ensued, ultimately resulting in the defeat of the plainclothes attackers. the Public Security Bureau cavalry and security team sustained some casualties. By 5:00 a.m., despite a night of disturbances and looting, the plainclothes team ultimately failed in their efforts. The Japanese military at Haiguang Temple then resorted to diplomatic tactics, issuing a verbal warning to Wang Shuchang. They claimed that the Chinese security team had attacked the plainclothes group, resulting in injuries and fatalities among Japanese soldiers due to stray bullets, which they argued endangered the lives of overseas Chinese in the Japanese concession. They demanded that the Chinese security team and police withdraw 300 meters by 6 am, threatening to take action otherwise. This unreasonable demand clearly had ulterior motives. Observing that the plainclothes team, supported and directed by the Japanese army at Haiguang Temple, lacked combat capability and that the Japanese army was not directly involved, Wang decided to avoid escalating the situation. He ordered a withdrawal of 300 meters from the blocked entrance to the Japanese concession while maintaining close surveillance. This order was issued and executed at 5:30 am on the 9th. However, the Japanese army violated their promise and fired over 30 cannon rounds at 6:40 am One shell struck an earthen shed of a store about 100 meters east of the Public Security Bureau, while another exploded at the intersection of Sanma Road in Special District 2. Fortunately, due to the cold weather in late autumn, most people were indoors, and the streets were empty, resulting in no casualties. At that moment, the plainclothes team, supported by Japanese artillery, regrouped near the gate area and launched a significant attack against us. However, due to the security team being on high alert and defending valiantly, the plainclothes team ultimately failed. By noon, the gunfire had diminished, but the Chinese area remained deserted, with no pedestrians in the Japanese concession, except for a few Japanese soldiers and residents. At 5 pm, the plainclothes team initiated another harassment operation in the Wandezhuang area outside the South Gate, leading to continued gunfire. After a fierce battle, the attackers retreated. As the evening progressed, the gunfire became less frequent. According to intelligence reports, "The plainclothes team is preparing for a general assault in Tianjin. Wang Shuchang and Mayor Zhang have visited various locations to enforce strict precautions and have also telegraphed General Zhang Xueliang in Beiping." However, it remained calm until late at night on the 9th. On the 9th, 61 plainclothes rioters were apprehended. Ten were shot at the scene, all of whom were leaders involved in looting, arson, and pillaging; 37 were sent to Beiping, and three were killed by the security team. The remaining individuals were taken to the Second Army Headquarters for strict interrogation and subsequently handed over to the military court for prosecution. It was discovered that the headquarters of the plainclothes riot were located in Datong Apartment, Wanguo Apartment, Taipingli, and other sites within the Japanese Concession. Before dawn on the 10th, the plainclothes team hurried from the Japanese concession and Haiguang Temple into the Chinese territory. The most intense fighting erupted around the first district, the six schools, and Nankai Middle School. The sounds of cannon fire and heavy gunfire echoed back and forth. Nankai and the Nanshi area were suddenly shrouded in darkness. Two fully armed Japanese tanks patrolled along the riverbank, instilling fear among the citizens of Tianjin. Early on the 10th, the security team bravely searched for gangsters in the conflict zone. By around 7 am, they had recovered five rifles and 50 rounds of ammunition near Nankai. At 7:45, 26 members of the plainclothes team, along with seven rifles, numerous gray military uniforms, and three flags, were captured in Shengcai Village. Concurrently, five rifles and over 30 bullets were found in a public restroom at the South Gate. Subsequently, the plainclothes team attempted several attacks throughout Tianjin but was thwarted by the security team each time until the 20th. After the Chinese and Japanese sides reached an agreement on restoring Tianjin's status before November 8, the defensive structures in the Chinese area were gradually dismantled, leading to a steady improvement in the situation. Around 3 pm on November 22, Mayor Zhang dispatched representatives Ning Xiangnan, Shen Dijia, Jie Ruchuan, Jia Guofu, along with Japanese leader Goto, staff officer Miura, and translator Yoshida, to conduct a follow-up inspection at Dongmalu after the defenses were removed. The order in the area was commendable, and the defensive installations in the Japanese concession had also been taken down. Both parties expressed satisfaction with the outcome, and all shops in the Japanese concession were open for business. However, at 8:00 pm on November 26, gunfire erupted once more, accompanied by the sounds of machine guns and artillery. Sudden gunshots rang out from Xiguangkai and the White Bone Tower, which appeared to be a covert signal. Machine gun fire was reported in the southeast corner of the city, near the Kawasaki Foreign Company in the Japanese concession, as well as at the gate, Nanguan Xiatou, Haiguang Temple, and other locations. Simultaneously, the booming of mortars echoed throughout the city, plunging it into a state of panic. Japanese officers took direct command of the operations, targeting the Dongfuqiao Public Security Bureau and the Jingangqiao Provincial Government. The artillery was aimed toward Haiguang Temple at the gate. Fortunately, both locations were unoccupied, and the shells fired did not cause any damage. By around 7:00 pm the Japanese had repositioned the electric fences in the Japanese concession, stacked sandbags, and heightened their alertness. Additional infantry police were deployed at key intersections, and the Japanese-organized volunteer army was also mobilized. The gate was in close proximity to the Public Security Bureau at Dongfu Bridge, making the situation particularly tense. The plainclothes team gathered on the main street near the gate, while the Japanese army strictly prohibited pedestrians from passing through. The Mitsui & Co. building, which was tall and faced the Haihe River, allowed access to the Public Security Bureau along the river. The Japanese had also prepared command flags in advance to direct the plainclothes team in an assault on the gate. The situation was quite critical at the southern end of Nanguan Street, particularly at the intersection of Nanshi and China, as well as at the southeast corner of the city. Key locations within the Japanese concession, including Jinshan Pharmacy, Xinming Grand Theater, Zhongyuan Company, the Japanese Public Hospital, Laojiuzhang Silk Shop, Taichang Pawnshop, and Shengdeli Building, were also under tight security. Consequently, this second plainclothes riot was a coordinated effort by the Japanese to undermine public security in Tianjin, aligning with developments in the Northeast, with the ultimate goal of further occupying and seizing Tianjin. On the 27th, a plainclothes unit operating under Japanese command launched a fierce assault on the gate around 1 a.m., retreating only after facing a counterattack from the forces. Beginning on the 28th, the Japanese military significantly increased its troop presence, creating a tense atmosphere that compelled the Tianjin authorities to withdraw their security team back to Hebei and dismantle all fortifications. This allowed the Japanese army to bolster its military presence in Tianjin, although they were unable to gain control of the city. While the plainclothes riots were being planned, Doihara was talking with Puyi. On November 3rd, Doihara met with him at the Jingyuan Garden in Tientsin. In his memoirs Puyi stated Doihara was a Japanese soldier who had made his entire career by invading China. He was 48 years old when they were speaking and the muscles around his eyes showed signs of relaxation. He had a small mustache and his face was always gentle and he acted very respectfully. His smile always gave the impression that everything he said was unreliable however. "He asked about my health and then got down to business. He first explained that the Japanese army's actions were only aimed at Zhang Xueliang, saying that Zhang Xueliang "made Manchuria miserable, and the rights, lives and property of the Japanese could not be guaranteed, so Japan had no choice but to send troops. He said that the Kwantung Army had no territorial ambitions for Manchuria, but only "sincerely wanted to help the Manchurian people and build their own new country. He hoped that I would not miss this opportunity and return to the birthplace of my ancestors soon to lead this country in person; Japan would sign an offensive and defensive alliance with this country, and its sovereign territory would be fully protected by Japan; as the head of this country, I could do everything on my own.” Puyi was extremely weary of the entire thing. Here is a transcript of some of their conversation as told to us through the memories of Puyi: I still had a very important question in my mind, so I asked: “What kind of country is this new country?” "I have already said that it is independent and autonomous, and the Emperor Xuantong has the final say." "That's not what I'm asking. I want to know whether this country is a republic or a monarchy? Is it an empire?" "These problems can be solved in Shenyang." "No," I insisted, "if it is a restoration, I will go, otherwise I will not go." He smiled and said in the same tone: "Of course it is the Empire, there is no problem with that." "If it's the Empire, I can go!" I expressed my satisfaction. "Then please ask the Emperor Xuantong to leave as soon as possible, and arrive in Manchuria before the 16th. We will discuss the details when we arrive in Shenyang. Yoshida will arrange the departure."  Afterwards Doihara congratulated Puyi on his safe journey, bowing respectfully to him. After Doihara left, Puyi met with Jin Liang who had come with Doihara. He brought further news from Manchurian veterans led by Yuan Jinkai, stating they could call upon the old Northeast Army to surrender. After enduring various forms of coercion, inducement, threats, and intimidation, Puyi was concealed in the trunk of a two-seater saloon car on the evening of November 10, just three days following the Tientsin Incident. As planned, he was driven out of Jingyuan. With the covert protection of the Japanese secret service, he changed into Japanese military attire and then took a vehicle from the Japanese military headquarters. He reached the British Concession Pier without any obstacles and boarded a small, unlit motorboat. Subsequently, he quickly fled to Dagukou under the escort of more than ten Japanese soldiers. He was then promptly transferred to the Japanese merchant ship "Awaji Maru," arriving at the Manchurian Railway Pier in Yingkou City on the 13th. On November 18, the Kwantung Army moved Puyi to the Dahe Hotel in Lushun, where he was closely "protected." Later on March 1, 1932, under the direction of the Kwantung Army, the puppet state of Manchukuo was officially declared "established." Puyi assumed the role of "ruler" of this puppet regime on March 9th. Two years later, his title was changed to "emperor." At this point, the Japanese invaders had successfully achieved their objective of holding Puyi hostage and establishing the puppet Manchukuo regime. Despite the Chinese army's efforts to quell the plainclothes riot, Japan seized upon the pretext of "endangering the lives of Japanese expatriates in the Japanese concession" to insist that the Chinese security forces withdraw 300 meters from the border of the concession. They threatened to take unilateral action if their demands were not met. On the 15th, during negotiations, the Northeast Army authorities conceded to Japan's unreasonable requests. Nevertheless, Japan proceeded to bombard the Hebei Provincial and Municipal Government buildings and the police station with artillery. Following the suppression of the second plainclothes riot, the Japanese, feeling humiliated by their foiled plans, sought new excuses and made further unreasonable demands. They insisted that the Chinese army withdraw from Tientsin and that the local populace refrain from anti-Japanese activities. Concurrently, they deployed additional troops to Tientsin, using intimidation tactics against the Chinese. The Nationalist government ultimately acquiesced to Japan's demands, ordering the security team, primarily made up of the Northeast Army, to retreat to what is now the Hebei District on November 29th. As the soldiers withdrew from their positions, tears were shed, and onlookers mourned their departure. Beginning December 1st, streets in the Japanese concession were illuminated, and Japanese merchants displayed flags to celebrate their perceived victory. They even coerced Chinese residents into hanging Japanese flags under threat of imprisonment. The contrast was stark between the Tientsin Security Team's defeat, which felt like a loss without actual defeat, and the Japanese invaders' hollow victory. Several Chinese soldiers who distinguished themselves in the fight against the invasion were reassigned from Tientsin. Despite failing in the riot, the Japanese successfully executed their plan to secretly extract Puyi from Tianjin and compelled the Chinese army to withdraw. This paved the way for a series of conspiratorial events, including the "Chadong Incident," "Hebei Incident," and "Zhangbei Incident." Ultimately, these actions led to their proposals for "North China Autonomy" and the "July 7 Marco Polo Bridge Incident," marking a gradual realization of their ambitions to invade China.

The invasion of Manchuria was coming to a swift end and soon a new puppet state would take hold, but would Japan stop with the northeast?

Jason and Derek drive and discuss the legendary Lancia Stratos – its origins, its parts-bin interior, and its unhinged handling. === Click here to join the Hagerty Driver's Club: https://bit.ly/Join-HDC-Cammisa-Rev === On today's episode, things start off by looking at commenters' nominations for elegant mid-engine cars. Most are promptly rejected, but a handful give the Carmudgeons pause: the De Tomaso P72, McLaren Speedtail, Jaguar XJ220, Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale, and Ferrari 296. And two previously overlooked but notably elegant exceptions are: the Ferrari 246 Dino and the first-generation Toyota Previa.  Afterwards, it's all things Stratos – starting with Jason's and Derek's driving impressions. They discuss the handling characteristics of this mind-bendingly miniature, Ferrari-engined, rally missile. Thanks to its short, upward-swept overhangs and relatively massive suspension travel, it can traverse rough terrain with ease (including massive potholes and steep driveways), setting it apart from your average sports car experience. But, like a fighter jet, it sacrifices stability in favor of maximum maneuverability.  They also cover its diminutive size (the Stratos is 2 feet shorter than a Mk8 VW Golf!) and its parts-bin interior – including the trunk release it shares with the Lamborghini Countach and Ferrari 308 GT4, exterior door handle from the Fiat X1/9, and interior door pull from the Miura (among others). Not to mention its paper-thin fiberglass “firewall,” and very unique hinged side windows.  Later on, discussions move to the origins of the car. From the philandering nature of mid-century Italian design houses like Pininfarina and Bertone, which seemed to take turns designing Italy's newest models at the time. Things like the Fiat Dino Coupe and Spider, and the Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint and Sprint Speciale (not to mention the wild Stratos Zero concept by Marcello Gandini that became the wedge-shaped Stratos) – plus the dubious last-second rally homologation of the Stratos.  Lancia's little wedge would go on to race all across the world; from the Acropolis Rally in Greece, to the East African Safari Rally in Kenya, to the Press-on-Regardless Rally in Michigan. The Stratos, which replaced Lancia's too-fragile Fulvia, would prove itself plenty rugged and become a wildly successful rally car (but a total sales flop). Lancia's parent company, Fiat, wanted it out in favor of its new 131, but the Stratos' WRC wins continued thanks to privateers all the way up until the 1980s, when it was finally replaced by the 037. The Stratos Stradale, a car you could buy 50 years ago for the price of a mildly-luxurious contemporary GT like the Alfa Romeo Montreal – now goes for several hundreds of thousands of dollars. Probably one of the highest dollar-per-sq/ft ratios in the automotive world – start saving! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Mis buenos amigos de Planeta DeAgostini… ¿cómo podían saber que el 330 es mi Ferrari favorito? Estoy enamorado de este coche. Este podcast lo hacemos con la ayuda de Planeta DeAgostini, que nos va a ofrecer a todos los aficionados una maqueta, con la calidad con la que ellos son capaces de hacerlo, del Ferrari 330/4… ¿Qué no conoces este coche? ¡Pero si se le considera el coche de carreras más bello de todos los tiempos! Con un motor central V12 de 4 litros y 450 CV… es-pec-ta-cu-lar. Y esta maqueta cuenta con dos características muy especiales: Primera: Su fidelidad… ¡con licencia oficial Ferrari! O lo que es lo mismo, con los planos de Ferrari… es simplemente perfecta. Solo te digo una cosa: Mira las imágenes del motor. Segunda: Además de perfecta, es… ¡enorme! De escala 1:8 a lo que es lo mismo, ¡medio metro de largo!… ya he preparado en el salón de mi casa un hueco para esta maravilla. Y añadiría una más, porque Planeta DeAgostini sabe hacer estas cosas: No te asustes, si sigues las instrucciones que vienen con las piezas, no es complicado de construir… es más, ¡lo vas a disfrutar! Por ser de seguidor de Garaje hermético tienes ventajas… Aquí tienes todos los datos: https://bit.ly/Ferrari330Garaje usa el código GARAJEHERMETICO y te aplicarán un precio especial. ¡Hoy vamos a olvidarnos de SUV, híbridos, eléctricos, de coches sin personalidad y de temas sesudos! ¡Vamos a divertirnos! Uno de vosotros me propuso un reto: Hacer un listado con los 10 mejores deportivos de la historia… ¡menudo desafío! Pero en GH… ¡nos atrevemos con todo! Hay tantas listas de “Los 10 mejores deportivos de la historia” como aficionados, porque cada uno tiene sus preferencias… os traspaso un reto: ¿Y si hacemos una lista con vuestras preferencias? 1. BMW M3 (1986). El M3 marcó un antes y un después en el mundo de los deportivos y sobre todo en BMW, pues fue el pistoletazo de salida de la división M. 2. Ferrari F40 (1987). Tras el desgraciado fallecimiento del “Commendatore” el 14 de agosto de 1988, lo tuve claro: El F40 era el mejor deportivo del momento, sería uno de los mejores deportivos de la historia y se convertiría en un mito. 3. Honda NSX (1990). Como un Ferrari… pero mejor y utilizable para el día a día. Este coche lo he podido probar muchas veces, usarlo a diario y viajar con él. 4. Jaguar E (1961). Seamos sinceros: La mayor cualidad del Jaguar E es su estética, en especial en su versión descapotable, para mí el “verdadero” Jaguar E. Esa es la virtud que ha prevalecido con el paso del tiempo, en especial desde que Enzo Ferrari dijo aquello de que el Jaguar E era “el coche más hermoso jamás fabricado”. 5. Lamborghini Miura (1966). Yo no soy Enzo Ferrari, pero como sobre gustos no hay nada escrito, me atrevo a contradecirle: Para mí el deportivo más bonito de la historia es el Miura, considerado además como el primer superdeportivo de la historia… y el segundo modelo lanzado por la marca. 6. Lancia Stratos (1973). ¡Otro diseño del Gandini! ¡Qué grande! En Rallyes, su dominio fue aplastante y se fabricaron solo 492 unidades… muchas de ellas acabaron su vida destruida en algún rallye. 7. Lotus Super Seven (1957). El Seven y Super Seven los los Lotus que mejor se adecuan a la filosofía de su creador Colin Chapman cuando decía aquello de “prefiero que me quites un kilo a que me des un caballo”. 8. McLaren F1 (1992). Lo que hace que este coche esté en esta lista es de algún modo lo mismo que al F40: Era un coche de competición que se podía matricular y circular por la calle. Se dice que a Gordon Murray se le ocurrió la idea esperando en un avión y luego pensó… “¿por qué no?”. 9. Mercedes-Benz 300 SL (1954). ¡Solo por las puertas merece estar aquí! Y eso que estas puertas que le dieron el nombre de “Gullwing” o “Alas de gaviota” se hicieron así por pura serendipia… 10. Porsche 911 (1964). No soy especialmente fan del 911 pero… ¡cómo no iba a estar aquí el deportivo por excelencia! Lo tiene todo, una historia bonita, éxito en competición, versiones muy especiales como el primer turbo y, sobre todo, se sigue fabricando en la actualidad, muy evolucionado, pero conservando el rasgo del motor posterior. Conclusión. No están todos los que son, pero son todos los que están. Y hay otra conclusión: Realmente, este podcast necesita una segunda parte… ¿no os parece?

After an unplanned summer break, Scoreography returns to cover the 2024-2025 season, starting with the Challenger Series. We take a look at all the major competitors we've seen so far, specifically from the Nebelhorn and Lombardia Trophy competitions, as well as Cranberry Cup and other small events. Welcome back, Scoreogra-fans! (too much?) It's a new dawn, it's a new day, it's a new SEASON of figure skating — and we're so happy to be back! It was a long summer of far too much adult-ing, and we've missed so much in the world of figure skating. From the ISU's legalization of the backflip (or somersault) in competition to the 2022 Olympic teams from the USA and Japan FINALLY getting their medals at the 2024 games in Paris, we're definitely a bit behind. However, with a new competitive season already in progress, we're moving forward and talking about what we've already seen at early season Challenger Series events including Lombardia Trophy, Nebelhorn Trophy, and Cranberry Cup. Since its still quite early and most skater's programs aren't fully “baked” yet, in this episode we break down which skaters have competed so far by discipline — and dig into who's already looking strong. Women's Division The women of Team USA have come out hot already with some big moments for reigning U.S. Champion, Amber Glenn, and well as two young skaters who are starting to make their mark internationally: Elyce Lin-Gracey and Sarah Everhardt. Amber threw down a personal best short program at Lombardia Trophy — which included a gorgeous triple axel — and skated well enough in the free to earn her first gold at a Challenger Series event. Elyse Lin-Gracey was consistently gaining ground last season, but she looks like she's found her flow and looked incredible at Nebelhorn Trophy. She scored a personal best of 213.33 overall and made the skating world sit up and take notice. Also bringing the heat is Sarah Everhart, who looked fantastic at last year's U.S. Nationals where she landed in 4th overall. She started her season with a victory at Cranberry Cup over the likes of reigning World Silver medalist, Isabeau Levito and Elyse Lin-Gracey. Isabeau Levito, for her part, has perhaps not had the flawless programs and scores she would have liked so far — with a bronze at Cranberry Cup and a silver at Nebelhorn Trophy. However, we are not too concerned, as she's already shown a new short program that taps into an elegant, Audrey Hepburn vibe that looks like a winner to us. Plus, her free skate at Nebelhorn showed significant improvement from Cranberry Cup. We think these are just early competitions and that she looks to be right on track. Team Japan is already on the board with medals as well, with reigning 3-time world champion, Kaori Sakamoto, taking the bronze at Lombardia Trophy with a safe but solid competition. Again, her programs look stellar and we're chalking up the lower-than-usual difficulty and scores to the fact that it's a brand new season. At Nebelhorn Trophy, we saw her Japanese teammate and last season's rookie of the year, Hana Yoshida, take bronze and include triple axels in both her short and long programs. The short program saw a fall on that triple axel, but she scored a nice one in her excellent free skate. Pairs Division Nebelhorn Trophy provided us a fantastic early-season rematch between two of last season's top teams: World Champions Deanna Stelatto-Dudek & Maxime Deschamps and World Bronze medalists, Minerva Hase & Nikita Volodin. Canada's Deanna & Maxime had a great new short program, but drew the short straw, going first at the competition, so were scored lower than they would have been had they skated later. Their new free skate has incredible potential to be one of their best, but a few issues on their side-by-side jumps held them solidly in the silver medal position. Germany's Hase & Volodin looked nearly ready for Worlds in terms of their technical. After having to make some relatively last-minute changes to their music in the offseason, they looked poised and polished — claiming their first victory of this new season. If this represents the promise of what's to come, they will make it an exciting Grand Prix series and beyond. Also looking strong already are Sarah Conti & Niccolo Macii from Italy, who took the gold at Lombardia Trophy with two much better skates than most of what we saw from them last season. It was great to see a solid comeback for this team — and will hopefully lead to more positive outcomes. Reigning world silver medalists, Japan's Riku Miura & Ryuchi Kihara, had a stunning short program at Lombardia Trophy. However, their new long program—while looking like it has the potential to be a gem—saw a scary fall in a lift resulting in what appeared to be at least a minor injury for Ryuchi. Their coach, Bruno Marcotte, later said Ryuchi would recover in a week or two and that no major damage was done, thankfully. Also looking strong so far are Hungary's Maria Pavlova & Alexei Sviatchenko, who were third at Lombardia Trophy, and the U.S.'s Ellie Kam & Danny O'Shea, who had a stunning personal best short program at Nebelhorn Trophy and earned the bronze medal there. Men's Division We were NOT prepared for the Lombardia Trophy rematch of the two top men in the world from last season, Ilia Malinin and Yuma Kagiyama. In what had to be the most exciting moments of the season so far, these two men lit up the arena in Italy — showing programs that look both like they have tons of room to improve and also like they've been skating them for years. Reigning world champ and quad god, Ilia Malinin, has brought some of his exhibition style to his short program with an aggressive music choice and program. His free skate to “I'm Not a Vampire” may be his strongest yet. He did not perform the quad axel here or push to the limits he can on the technical side, but his victory was marked instead by more intensity and connection to the music than we've seen from him before. He's showing growth, and it's exciting to see. Yuma Kagiyama brought his finesse, his edges, his jumps, and his completeness as a skater to Lomabardia and looked absolutely divine as he took silver. As he did last season, his difficulty was somewhat dialed down here (its early season!), but that did not take away from the quality of his programs. In particular, his short program is a masterpiece that — once at its full power — will have audiences in the palm of his hand even more than they already are. A joy! Not too far behind the two of these men was Japan's Shun Sato, who looked better than ever after an off season where he obviously spent time working on his choreography and connection to the music. Worth noting is his score of 285.88, which got him a bronze here but would have taken gold over his countryman, Sota Yamamoto, at Nebelhorn Trophy. Yamamoto had a rough short program at Nebelhorn, but his exceptional free skate took him to victory. Right behind his was a strong performance from Gabriele Frangipani from Italy and an artistic dream from Deniss Vasiļjevs of Latvia. Ice Dance Division Of all the disciplines so far, we've seen the fewest of the top contenders in dance. Reigning world bronze medalists, Guignard & Fabbri of Italy, did make their debut with a fresh and fun rhythm dance. Their free skate seemed a bit less successful, but their scores were still magnificent and took them to an easy gold medal at Lombardia Trophy. The team nipping at their heels all last season, Lilah Fear & Lewis Gibson of Great Britain, looked amazing in their disco-themed rhythm dance. However, their free dance to a Beyonce medley seemed a little more safe than we've seen from them in past seasons. Still, their scores easily took them to victory at Nebelhorn Trophy and sets them up well as the season evolves. Our personal favorites so far this season have to be the two American teams of Christina Carreira & Anthony Ponomarenko, whose free dance to Carmen may well be their best to date, and Emilea Zingas & Vadym Kolesnik. Zingas & Kolesnik looked like a different team in their free dance, showing a new and captivating side to their skating.

Visions in hypnagogic states, deep introspection, and the ouroboros of prophecy vs. causality abound in these chapters as we learn more about Farnesse's religiously driven sexual repression, Zodd's first interaction with his new and future master, and Guts getting an emotional truth-bomb dropped on his face for leaving Casca and Rickert alone for two years so he could selfishly focus on revenge. Miura never lets you feel exactly the same about characters for very long…even the ones we're supposed to love.

Hacemos este podcast gracias a la colaboración de la revista CEROaCIEN que, cómo os digo siempre, es el sueño de cualquier periodista y de cualquier aficionado: Información fiable, de calidad y no siempre conocida. En esta ocasión dedican ¡¡80 paginas!!! a esta historia, incluso detalles muy poco conocidos… Para mi CEROaCIEN es una revista imprescindible para el buen aficionado. Todo esto lo puedes encontrar en el texto descriptivo… ¡y no olvides que de regalos hay láminas y adhesivos! Tenía ganas de hacer un monográfico del Lancia Stratos y de repente me llega por correo, el número 15 de mi revista favorita con el Stratos en portada. Os vuelvo a recordar que CEROaCIEN solo se vende online y que si eres garajista tienes un descuento usando el código GH5… Os preguntareis, ¿Cómo puede ser el Lancia Stratos, presentado en 1973, el primer Gr. B, un reglamento que apareció en 1982?” Cierto. Hasta la llegada del Gr.B los coches de rallye eran coches “de calle” preparados para correr, mientras los Gr.B eran coches nacidos para la competición… el Stratos se adelantó a todos, era un coche de calle, pero nacido para la competición. Vale la pena repasar su historia y sus curiosidades… ¡que son muchas! Y es que el Stratos, en realidad los Stratos, porque son dos, tienen una historia apasionante y llena de curiosidades. Y vamos por el principio… por mí principio. Siempre digo, mantengo y demuestro que la realidad supera a la ficción. Cesare Fiorio, quién acabaría siendo director deportivo de Ferrari, ocupaba ese mismo cargo en Lancia. Con el pequeño Fulvia de tracción delantera y curioso motor V4 habían conseguido buenos resultados en rallyes, pero la llegada de los Alpine A110, Ford Escort, con motores de hasta 1.800 cm3 y sobre todo Porsche, con su potentes 911, le estaba complicando la vida a Lancia. Además, en un mal momento, justo cuando Lancia, ya dentro del grupo Fiat que la había adquirido en 1969, más necesitaba reivindicarse y hacerse notar… Bertone, estaba falto de trabajo. Era consciente que tenía en sus filas si no el mejor uno de los mejores diseñadores del momento y de la historia: Marcello Gandini. Bertone quería mantener a Lancia como cliente, que lo estaba perdiendo a manos de Pininfarina y Zagato. Además, intuía que el Fulvia, modelo clave para la marca, estaba al final de su carrera y decidió hacer un prototipo espectacular que atrajese la mirada de todos los aficionados y profesionales… y sobre todo la de los responsables de Lancia. La idea era crear un modelo que fuese algo insólito, único, espectacular e innovador… justo lo que Marcello Gandini sabía hacer. La semilla del Lancia Stratos estaba sembrada. No fue fácil, como querían sorprender a Lancia no contaron con ellos, compraron un siniestro de Fulvia para aprovechar la parte mecánica y la suspensión trasera, porque una de las condiciones que había puesto el jefe, Bertone, es que tenía que ser un prototipo real, funcional, que se pudiese conducir. Nos vamos al 28 de octubre de 1970 cuando se inaugura la Feria del automóvil de Turín. Fiorio va paseando y al llegar al stand de Bertone se queda petrificado: Vio un coche que podía haber salido, perfectamente, de una nave espacial. Fiorio se enamoró del coche y, sobre todo, se enamoró de la audacia de ese planteamiento y pensó que esa audacia, ese planteamiento novedoso, ese romper con las reglas era lo que necesitaba para su nuevo coche de rallyes.Esa noche no durmió y se le ocurrió la idea que es clave en el Stratos: ¿Y si en vez de esperar a que Lancia lance un nuevo modelo y prepararlo, no lanzamos un modelo pensando en la competición?” Consiguieron una cita en la sede de Lancia a la que, para dar un golpe de efecto, acudió en el Stratos Zero… la gente que lo veían pasar por las calles de Turín se quedaban paralizados… Uno de los momentos cumbre es cuando el vigilante que había en la barrera les dijo que podían pasar y pasaron con el Lancia Stratos… antes de que subiesen la barrera. Este prototipo, con sus 84 cm de altura, pasaba por debajo. ¡Lo que te podrías ahorrar en peajes! El genio de Gandini se pone en marcha para crear probablemente el coche de rallyes más icónico de la historia y que fue en su momento casi invencible…Pero esta historia os la voy a contar de curiosidad en curiosidad. Sin motor. Algo muy sorprendente del Stratos es que Marcello comenzó a diseñarlo con muy pocas instrucciones, básicamente que tenía que ser un coche ligero y ganador… ¿y que motor le ponemos? La solución Dino. Costó, pero al final convencieron a la Ferrari para que cediese el excelente V6 “DINO” para motorizar el definitivo Stratos HF. Diseñado… en vacaciones. El objetivo era presentar el Stratos HF en el Salón del automóvil de 1971… y al llegar el verano de ese año empezaba a masticarse la tensión: No iban a llegar. Las vacaciones de agosto de 1971 fueron todo menos vacaciones Gandini que trabajó a contrarreloj ese mes de agosto con sus mejores modelistas: Di Camillo, Bottalico y Gasparro. Un apretón de manos. Ugo Gobatto y Cesare Fiorio llegaron a Maranello para reunirse con Enzo Ferrari. Pero llegaron en buen momento. Un simple apretón de manos entre Ugo y Enzo sirvió como el mejor de los contratos. “Hay que hacer 500”. Para poder homologar un coche debían fabricarse 500 ejemplares… pero no era fácil fabricar 500 Stratos en poco tiempo. Stratos y Miura, hermanos. Gran parte de la responsabilidad de lo bien que iba el Stratos como coche de competición recae en el genial Gian Paolo Dallara… seguro que este nombre os suena y es que este ingeniero de formación aeronáutica había trabajado con éxito en toro proyecto de éxito: El Lamborghini Miura. Hubo versión turbo. Muy pocos se acuerdan de la versión “Turbo”, que la hubo. Al final de su vida en los Rallyes se diseñó una versión para circuitos a la que se le instaló un turbo… bueno, y se aumentó la distancia entre ejes hasta los 2,29 m para que fuese más fácil domar a la “bestia” … que llegó a dar 550 CV. Nacido para la competición. La primera vez que te subes a un Stratos piensas… “pero ¡qué es esto!” Es pequeño, muy claustrofóbico, con una visibilidad hacia atrás nula, el ruido del motor perforando tus tímpanos, con una dirección directísima, muy incómodo y tremendamente nervioso. Como deportivo de calle el Stratos HF es uno de los coches más incomodos y delicados de conducir que he probado jamás… y uno de los mas gratificantes.

(COVERS THESE CHAPTERS: STORM OF DEATH, GOD OF THE ABYSS, LIFEBLOOD, QUICKENING, BIRTH, AFTERGLOW OF THE RIGHT EYE, ESCAPE) We have arrived. The "main events" of the Eclipse transpire during this episode, and we basically go page by page and find (in our humble opinion) a ton of nuance that tends to be missed because these sections tend to be...read "quickly" for lack of a better term, and for obvious reasons. There is so much rich existentialism here in the writing/characters despite the horrific (and literal) existential crisis that's happening in the plot, and we feel that this episode does the late Miura-san justice in what The Eclipse is supposed to represent in the series. Or at least, our personal takes on what he might be representing. Enjoy! ...as much as you can, anyway.
