"Are you still a soldier? Are you still a samurai?"
Nishio Juichi rushed into the yard and shouted excitedly.
However, it was of no use. The "wounded" lying scattered all over the courtyard and corridor all rolled their eyes at Nishio Shigeichi, and then continued to look for their military doctor.
"Military doctor, where is the military doctor? I'm dying of pain!"
"Military doctor, military doctor, come here and look at me quickly. My ear is broken."
"Military doctor, I woke up this morning and suddenly found that all my hair had fallen out. Military doctor, do you think I have some incurable disease? Woo hoo hoo, then I have to go home to see my dad for the last time, woo hoo
Ugh, military doctor, please give me a diagnosis of terminal illness so that I can ask for leave, otherwise the captain will not allow it."
"Military doctor, come here, I promise not to beat you."
Seeing that no one paid attention to him, Nishio Juichi became completely angry. He couldn't control the people in other brigades, but he could still teach the officers and soldiers of the 1st Infantry Battalion a lesson.
As soon as Nishio stepped forward, he picked up a "wounded" who was lying on a stretcher and was pretending to be wailing, and then spat in his face: "Ono-san, you were fine yesterday, why did you suddenly do it today?
Just the arm injury? Do you think you inflicted the wound on your arm yourself? Om?!"
The "wounded man" immediately jumped up: "Deputy captain, you can eat this meal randomly, but you must not talk nonsense about it. Why did I hurt myself? If the military police heard this, they would not send me to the military.
Court? Even if you are the deputy captain, you can't just accuse people randomly, right? Akita, tell the deputy captain, how did my arm get hurt?"
The other "wounded" lying on the stretcher next to him immediately sat up, pointed to his thigh and said: "Deputy captain, the wound on Ono's arm was really injured by me during training in the morning, but he also injured my leg.
, Deputy Brigade, look, there is such a long cut, and there is a lot of blood, oh no, I am dizzy, I am so dizzy..."
Unlike the Japs in other places, the Japs in Osaka and Kyoto are much more active and know how to use loopholes in the air law to protect themselves. This may be related to the relatively strong business atmosphere in Osaka and Kyoto, but the business atmosphere is strong.
People in a region tend to be more intelligent. Once the people are more intelligent, management becomes more difficult.
Look at Ono, then look at Akita, Nishio Juichi has a big head.
Seeing that Nishio Juichi was frightened, Ono broke free from Nishio Juichi's control without leaving a trace, and then lay back on the stretcher, shouting: "Oh, oh, my arm is bleeding again, it hurts."
As he was calling, a military doctor finally ran over sweating profusely.
While the military doctor was bending over to check the wound, Ono was very discreet and stuffed a fifty yen note into the pocket of the military doctor's white coat. Nishio Juichi was right next to him, and he didn't even notice Ono's little move, but that
The military doctor clearly saw it, and then pretended to start checking the wound.
After a while, the military doctor said to Nishio Juichi: "Sir, this soldier has a penetrating wound on his left arm near the elbow, and it is only a short distance from the aorta, so it must be debrided immediately and put on a plaster."
After that, the military doctor called to the caregiver behind him, "You two, carry him to the debridement room."
"Hai." The two caregivers nodded slightly, then came up and lifted Ono's stretcher and left.
Akita followed suit and secretly stuffed fifty yen into the military doctor's pocket, and then said: "Military doctor, please help me quickly look at the wound on my thigh. There is so much blood. I seriously suspect it is a cut." The aorta, military doctor, you don’t know, there was really a lot of blood just now, oh, I’m dizzy, dizzy..."
The military doctor bent down again and began to examine carefully.

The "false injury" incident in the 108th Infantry Regiment soon spread to the other three infantry regiments.
By noon, none of the four infantry regiments originally scheduled to assemble were able to arrive. What's more, many soldiers who had already arrived to assemble suddenly suffered from "dehydration," "dizziness," and "nausea." He suffered from sudden illnesses such as vomiting, foaming at the mouth, etc., and was rushed to a field hospital for treatment.
All four infantry regiments suffered large-scale non-combat attrition, which quickly alerted the division headquarters.
"What did you just say?" Miyake Toshio stared at Kaoru Kataoka with wide eyes and said, "Four infantry regiments suddenly experienced large-scale attrition at the same time? And it was non-combat attrition?"
As the division leader of the Daigo Division, Miyake Toshio immediately realized that something had happened to his group of small Osaka traders again, and this time the trouble was far more serious than before. If this time it was If one person does not handle it well, it may really ruin his future, so he must be cautious.
"Hai." Kaoru Kataoka paused and said, "I suspect this is all fraud due to my humble position."
Miyake Toshio snorted and said: "Any idiot can guess that they are faking injuries, but the question is the evidence? If there is no definite evidence, just conclude that they are faking injuries. Those Osaka-based unions in the empire, The bosses of the chamber of commerce, as well as the presidents of large corporations, are afraid that they will come out to complain again."
When Kaoru Kataoka heard this, his heart trembled, because Toshio Miyake had something to say.
Miyake Toshio is telling the story of the Russo-Japanese War. During the Russo-Japanese War, the Fourth Division was defeated repeatedly on the battlefield, so much so that it became a common practice to flee. Later, every time they went on an expedition, many Osaka officers and soldiers simply Pretending to be ill or deliberately causing injuries to avoid going on an expedition, the then division commander used an iron fist to organize the army and shot many Osaka officers and soldiers. Among the Osaka officers and soldiers who did not want to be shot, there were actually bosses from the Imperial Trade Union and the Chamber of Commerce. The result was an uproar, leading to a large-scale strike. In the end, in order to calm the turmoil, the empire had no choice but to order the dismissal of the then division commander.
Osaka has been a Japanese commercial port since ancient times. Business has been popular and it is very influential in the imperial business and political circles. Miyake Toshio does not want to repeat the mistakes of his unlucky predecessors.
Kaoru Kataoka frowned and said, "Division commander, we can't drag it on like this, right?"
"It's definitely not possible to drag it on like this. If it continues like this, it's the military bosses who will be offended." Miyake Toshio groaned and said, "We can't afford to offend the chamber of commerce and labor union bosses, and we can't afford to offend the military bosses. I can't afford to offend you, so I can only go to the field hospital to be a military doctor who examines injuries."
Kaoru Kataoka's eyes lit up when he heard this and said, "Division Commander, I'll go with you."
"The two of us alone may not be able to do it." Miyake Toshio shook his head and said, "In this way, you organize all the staff members of the division and regiment headquarters and go to the field hospital to temporarily serve as military doctors."
"Hai." Kaoru Kataoka paused and turned around.

By this time, the 8th Tank Regiment, which was coordinating the operations of the 104th Division, had completed its assembly.
The Eighth Tank Regiment has three Type 95 medium tank squadrons, a Type 97 light tank squadron, an artillery tank squadron, a maintenance squadron and a motorized infantry squadron, with 45 Type 95 medium tanks.
Tanks, eighteen Type 97 light tanks, ten artillery tanks, plus four load-carrying trucks and six three-wheeled motorcycles.
According to Western standards, this level of equipment is simply mediocre, but for the Chinese army, it can be regarded as a mechanized army armed to the teeth.
As the captain of the Eighth Tank Regiment, Yamamoto Yueji seemed confident about the upcoming sweep.
The reason is also obvious. Even in large-scale frontal battles such as the Battle of Songhu, the Battle of Nanjing, the Battle of Xuzhou, and the Battle of Wuhan, there has never been a precedent for an organized tank regiment to participate in the battle. This time, in order to deal with the Dameishan Independence
However, the regiment used an organic tank regiment, which was definitely killing a chicken with a knife.
Using their Eighth Tank Regiment's sledgehammer to kill the Dameishan Independent Regiment, isn't it better to catch it with both hands? Yamamoto Koshiji simply couldn't imagine the possibility of failure in this battle.
As early as an hour ago, Yamamoto Etsuji ordered more than 80 equipment of the 8th Tank Regiment to be activated. He only waited for the arrival of the 104th Division to complete the mixed formation and then drive straight into Pu County along the highway.
.
However, what is very puzzling is that the 104th Division has not arrived yet.
After waiting for more than half an hour, Yamamoto Koshiji finally felt a little impatient. What were these Osaka merchants doing so long? Are they going to fight or do business? It took so long to gather together? At that moment, Yamamoto Koshiji
Call your adjutant in front of you and ask him to send someone to the assembly area of the 104th Division to see what's going on?
The adjutant found a communications team and sped away on a three-wheeled motorcycle.
Less than five minutes later, the communications team came back on a three-wheeled motorcycle.
Yamamoto Koshiji put away his pocket watch and asked the communications team leader: "Have you seen General Miyake? When will the 104th Division come over to complete the formation with us?"
The communications team leader paused and said: "Your Excellency Colonel, the 104th Division has not yet assembled."
"Nani." Yamamoto Koshiji said in shock, "The 104th Division hasn't assembled yet?"
"Hai." The communications team leader paused and said, "In the assembly area of the 104th Division, there were less than one regiment waiting in line, and all the other officers and soldiers were missing."
"Baga, what are these Osaka merchants doing?" Yamamoto Koshiji cursed, climbed out of the turret, and then jumped off the Type 95 medium tank he was driving personally. He turned back and ordered the adjutant, "Northern
Shima-san, order all squadrons and all equipment to turn off the flames. These Osaka merchants haven't come yet, leaving us burning fuel here."
"Hai." Adjutant Gen. Kitajima nodded solemnly and ran to the front of the chariot formation to signal the flameout.
Seeing the flag signal played by Kitajima Gen, the eighty or so roaring equipments turned off their engines one after another, and the assembly area that had been very noisy just now immediately became quiet.
