Chapter 370: Hanako Yamashita's Fiery Manchurian Life
April 22, 1940. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoBoli County.
This time, Xiaolu and County Magistrate Wu intercepted a total of two trains in one day, both of which were pioneering groups. The second train was particularly long, with more than 20 carriages, and was escorted by 100 soldiers, all of whom were women.
It took a little time to defeat the Japanese soldiers who were escorting, mainly so as not to hurt the innocent.
The sharpshooters of the special combat team were literally conducting a shooting competition, and the leaders of each detachment actually began to instruct their fighters to outperform the others. After killing more than thirty people, the devils who escorted the car surrendered. The special forces are terrible, they are simply devils.
Years later, the people on this train recalled the experience and were still afraid.
More than 2,000 Japanese women stood by the railway. These people carried luggage on their backs and carried suitcases. The last person to get off the bus was a girl, twenty-one or twelve years old, named Hanako Yamashita. She was dressed in a school uniform and carrying a wicker suitcase. The student clothes were already very old, washed and faded, and after a few days of sitting down on the train, they were a little dirty.
Hanako Yamashita followed everyone off the train and stood in the last row.
She was in a bad mood. Just now, a Japanese soldier was killed right next to her, and it was difficult for a bullet to accurately hit his eyebrows. Hanako Yamashita instinctively wanted to help him bandage his wounds and immediately gave up because she knew the soldier was dead. Later, another escort soldier in the carriage was shot. Hanako Yamashita ran over to help with the rescue, but before she could take out the bandage, the man died.
Looking at the scene in front of him, more than sixty captured soldiers had been escorted into the mountain road and disappeared, while more than thirty corpses on the ground were neatly placed on the side of the railway, and thousands of soldiers in disorderly clothes stood in a neat line.
A man stood in front of the procession, shouted in Japanese, talked about the prisoner policy, talked about the future arrangements, and then gave the order and set off.
The team hit the road and walked into the mountains.
Where is this imaginary new Manchuria!
The local Manchurians, Mongols, Koreans, and Han Chinese are very friendly to the Japanese. They should welcome themselves warmly.
How did you take yourself prisoner as a soldier?
Hanako Yamashita was a student at nursing school, and when she was about to graduate, she signed up for a pioneer group. She was born in the countryside, and her family was a fisherman, and she was very poor. After graduation, there are several paths to take, one is to return to the rural hospital in my hometown to work as a nurse, and the second is to find a job and become a nurse in a big hospital in the city. Of course, you can also join the army and work as a nurse in a military hospital. The last one is to join the pioneer group.
The students were very surprised, but they did not expect that Hanako Yamashita, who was the best student, signed up for the pioneering group.
Hanako Yamashita is a good student who cares about politics. She completely believed that Japan's war was just, and after listening to several mobilizations of the Manchurian Pioneer Regiment, she completely believed that the Japanese should go to Manchuria and build a paradise of the republic of the five ethnic groups.
Many people have doubts about these propaganda, and recently, quite a few people have secretly listened to the radio and said some different points of view. The broadcast was in Japanese in Manchuria.
Hanako Yamashita doesn't have a radio at home, and she can't hear the radio of other countries at all compared to her wealthy classmates.
Recently, I heard that a pamphlet called "Reflection" was popular, and the police raided it, which made the book famous. However, Hanako Yamashita hasn't seen it either.
She was very excited when she saw the posters of Manchurian life, and felt that the best way for her to serve the emperor was to sign up to go to Manchuria as a pioneer group.
When it was known that she signed up for the Manchurian Pioneer Group, the school attached great importance to it and gave her a high honor, the chief, and graduated early. Newspaper reporters also came to interview her and published her bold words and photos on the front page of the newspaper. Her deeds, including photographs, were also published in the Manchurian Development Yearbook.
For a time, she became a news figure.
The more I thought about it, the more uncomfortable it became, and my feet slowed down, and I distanced myself from the person in front of me. One of the warriors saw it and shouted, "Hurry up!" Hayakul! ”
Yamashita Hanako didn't know where her temper came from, so she dropped the box and said, "Where are you going to pull us to?" Is this still Manchuria? ”
The soldier who urged her only spoke a few words in Japanese: Quick, shoot or kill, surrender. Listening to her, she shouted: "Little Japan! Be honest! It's not disciplined, Lao Tzu shot you! "It's all Northeast dialect.
Hanako Yamashita couldn't understand what he was saying, and when she saw him yelling, she also made a noise.
A man came from behind and said, "What's the matter?" ”
The soldier turned around, immediately stood upright, and said, "Report to the commander-in-chief, this female devil is not honest." Tell her to be honest, he is disobedient. ”
Xiaolu had just arranged the action of the special combat team, and the special combat team broke up and acted separately. He and Wang Santai only took a few dozen people to stay here, and he wanted to study the pioneer group. Others split up to the various units, distributed the weapons and ammunition they had brought, and then cooperated with the troops.
One group went to the Jiandao area, which was later known as Yanbian, and handed over a batch of weapons to the Second Army; One team went to Mudanjiang and handed over weapons to Wang Renzhi's troops there; One team went to Zhou Baozhong's troops; One team went to Jilin Ma Zhongwu troops; One team went the furthest and went to Yang Jingyu's troops.
In the winter of the previous year, Yichun sent 5,000 troops south to destroy the pioneer regiment and develop the base area. Wan Quance's troops were withdrawn, and the base was handed over to Zhou Baozhong. Han Dengying's 1,000 men were directly under the command of Li Huatang and still held on to the base area. Chen Fengshan's troops were assigned to the Eighth Army of the former Xie Wendong. This force is currently under the command of Liu Shuhua and Yu Cangshi.
Only Lao Wu is acting alone. Lao Wu got a thousand guns from Xiaolu's hand this time, and in two days, the expansion plan of 1,000 people was completed.
The troops sent by Li Lanchi were temporarily under his command, and this unit got its weapons in the winter and was expanding its army.
It can be seen from the trail that the layout in the south of the Songhua River has achieved initial results, and several base areas have already had a scale. This is the place where the pioneer regiment is most concentrated, and the Japanese army is very strict, and they come by the trail to study the pioneer regiment.
Now some of the weapons have been given to Lao Wu to equip the troops, and three hundred horses have been freed up. When he heard that the captives were women, he took the special combat team to catch up with them and carried them with their luggage on horses. As soon as I caught up, I saw someone arguing.
Xiao Lu looked at this female devil and felt that she was an intellectual, and said in Japanese: "Is there anything wrong?" Why quarrel? ”
When Hanako Yamashita heard Japanese, she suddenly felt aggrieved and said, "Is this Manchuria?" Why arrest us? Isn't it a republic of the five tribes? We, Great Japan, are here to help you, so why should we treat you like this? Please answer! Please! ”
Xiaolu said: "Are you educated? ”
Hanako Yamashita: "Nursing school, the chief graduate this year. ”
Xiaolu said: "Your question is not something that can be answered at once. Be sure to answer when you have time. Now please tell us that in order to lighten your burden, we will use war horses to help you carry your luggage and lighten your burden. ”
Yamashita Hanako was very puzzled, thinking that this big officer would beat her, but she didn't expect to ask her to pass on the word. What kind of team are these people?
Three or four hundred horses helped the women carry their luggage, and the speed of the march immediately increased.
Yamashita Hanako saw that the official was also on foot, and his war horse was also carrying four pieces of luggage. The senior official was very young, walking with a middle-aged man, and the two seemed to be saying something.
It's weird.
In the evening, the captives did not rest, but continued on walking, and after crossing a large mountain, they reached a house.
There are more than a dozen makeshift earthen stoves in the yard, in which cornmeal tortillas are placed, and next to them are several large pots, all of which are pickles or vegetable soup.
At night, all Japanese women live in the house, on the big kang, underground, and even in the kitchen. The woodshed next to it was full of people. Because there are many people and few houses, people sleep very crowded.
Hanako Yamashita went to the toilet at night, and when she came back from the toilet, she saw someone in the woods in front of her. Now it was morning, and there was a moon in the sky, and there was a fire in the woods, and you could see that the people living in the woods were sleeping in the woods, and some were snoring.
Hanako Yamashita was surprised. They took us captive, but let us live in houses, and they slept in the woods. Although it was spring, the temperature was still very low at night, so the men lit a few fires in the woods.
Hanako Yamashita had some doubts. The winner shouldn't do that to the loser.
Hanako Yamashita was watching, and suddenly, something hit the back of her head and said, "Raise your hands!" Little Japan! I want to run away! I've been staring at you for a long time! ”
Soon a dozen people came up and brought Hanako Yamashita to the fire.
Yamashita Hanako found that the official surnamed Lu was also sleeping by the fire, called him over, sat up, and said, "Didn't you say that there are wild beasts and wolves around here?" You can't succeed in escaping. ”
Hanako Yamashita: "I didn't want to run away. ”
The warrior said, "He spied on our campsite and looked suspicious. ”
Xiaolu: "You're still a spy?" ”
Hanako Yamashita: "I'm not. I just saw you give us a house to live in, and you to live in the wilderness. I'm weird. ”
After listening to his explanation for a long time, I understood that she did not understand that she was so kind to the prisoners of the Japanese coalition army.
After a few words of education, Hanako Yamashita was taken back to her room and continued to sleep. This time, though, she couldn't sleep. He was bewildered by where he was. Later, her father said to go, if she marries a big official of the pioneer group in the future, then she will be the landlord and she will be able to live a good life.
What will happen in the future? Thinking of her mother, Hanako Yamashita burst into tears. It was the first time she had cried in dozens of days, and when she left the house, she didn't cry.
In the next few days, the senior official surnamed Lu asked more than a dozen people for questioning, and Yamashita Hanako was questioned several times. He asked about the situation in Japan, miscellaneous things, and even prices. Yamashita Hanako didn't want to answer any questions, but she felt that it was not a big problem to have a few people in the family, how many acres of land, how much a pound of fish was, how much was her father's salary, and so on, so she began to come back. Later, I was wary and answered all questions.
