Chapter 931: Preparation (2)
Although it is the end of May, the temperature difference between morning and evening in the outer northeast is still very large, and the temperature at night in the mountains is only about 10 degrees. On the west bank of the Heilongjiang River, there are a large number of Japanese laborers busy day and night at the mouth of the Huma River.
The Far Eastern Company annihilated the Sauron Department and completely controlled the upper reaches of the Heilongjiang River. In order to build water transportation facilities in Heilongjiang, the company dispatched more than 100,000 Japanese laborers to build a large number of wharves and coal water supply points along both sides of the Heilongjiang River.
Takagi was wearing a washed gray striped overalls, and was working hard to load a wheelbarrow with a shovel. He had been swept from the village by the Far Eastern Army's death army last year, and he and his family were separated and rushed onto the ship in a daze.
Hundreds of Japanese peasants like him were crammed into the dark cabins like cattle, huddled together, and it was very difficult to turn around. For more than ten days, Takagi survived like this.
Fortunately, before getting on the boat, each person was given a small bag of fried noodles and a bamboo tube of water, and everyone saved some food but survived to the destination. During the ten-day journey, Takagi felt as if he had been in hell, and the already closed cabin was filled with a foul smell that made people feel sick and vomit.
Finally, the ship of these people docked in port, and as soon as Takagi, who had been suffocating in the cabin for more than ten days, stepped out of the cabin, it was as if he had entered the Heavenly God Realm in an instant. The fresh sea breeze blew on his cheeks, and although he had been whipped a few times because he coveted the fresh air of the sea, he still felt that it was worth it.
After Takagi went ashore, he was pushed into the concentration camp to register for purification, and a group of Japanese laborers who were responsible for purification did not have the slightest consciousness of their compatriots, and their hands were not light or heavy, and they almost shaved Takagi's skin bald, and a few days later it was still hot.
This was followed by another two months of rigorous training. A group of samurai masters desperately scolded and beat them every day, and their bodies and spirits almost reached their limits. Uprooted in a strange land, separated from his family, he endured many hardships along the way, and a series of blows nearly broke Takagi. Fortunately, although life in the camp was cruel, at least two meals of coarse noodles and vegetable soup were eaten every day. At least not to starve to death in a foreign land.
In the space of two months, Takagi learned queues, housekeeping, Mandarin and proficient memorization of various regulations, and even he did not believe that he, who had only known farming before, could learn so many things in such a short time.
The following year, Takagi built roads, dug canals, and went into the mountains to cut wood in the winter, and now he is sent to the upper reaches of the Heilongjiang River to build a riverside wharf. Takagi and these Japanese laborers who had the same experience. I'm happy with my current life.
Although the high-intensity work of twelve hours a day is tiring, three meals of coarse multigrain cakes and corn stubble porridge a day are full, and he has not eaten a few full meals when he is so old.
In the past, when I was in my hometown, I worked day and night every day, and even when the farm was slack, I had to work for the lord and lord, which was not much easier than now, but now I can at least eat enough. Dress warmly, and live in a warm wooden house in winter.
Takagi who had a full meal. I won't be lazy at all, and I only know how to work with my head down every day. Because the Japanese laborers work on a piecework basis, Takagi can be regarded as an activist among the Japanese laborers because he only knows how to work hard and has a flexible brain, and he has won the labor red flag in the squadron many times.
"Takagi...... Takagi ......"
The squad leader's shout was heard. Takagi hurriedly put down the shovel, came to the side of the team leader, bowed, and then shouted respectfully, "Hi ......"
The squad leader didn't talk to him and just asked him to pack his luggage. Then he was led to the brigade headquarters, where there were already many Japanese laborers waiting. When they had made it up, they were put on a boat and left the dock site.
Along the way, the ship was constantly stopped, and many Japanese laborers came on board with luggage on their backs. They also took the train for the first time, which scared the Japanese laborers into trembling, and for several days on the train they barely dared to sleep, for fear of being sacrificed to the roaring monster.
Ten days later, Takagi and they were sent to a huge harbor, where they were once again purified and examined, this time by professionals, not only formal, but also for them to purify the Japanese laborers, very polite to him, a strong bow to Takagi, the movements are also very gentle, rubbing the back, and massage, waiting very dedicated.
Takagi also received new supplies, including a military uniform, a pair of leather boots, a hat, and a marching rucksack filled with various household items. It was only at this point that Takagi knew that his good days might be coming this time.
He had seen those samurai masters who were also from Japan, and they were dressed similarly to himself, and the thought of this made Takagi's heart excited. As for why he was chosen, he speculated that he might be the reason why he often received the labor red flag.
Two days later, Takagi and a group of rejuvenated Japanese laborers boarded a large sea ship. This time they were treated much better, not only did they each have their own beds, clean bedding, and delicious meals every day.
Unlike last time, hundreds of people were crammed into the dark and cramped cabin, enduring the stench for more than ten days, and even and urine had to be pulled in their crotch.
On the island of Sibuyan in southern Luzon, a large number of Japanese laborers were transported here every day during this time, and as soon as they got off the ship, they were driven to the camp by a group of wolf-like soldiers who dared to die.
This is the tradition of the Death Army, and every new recruit who has just entered the new barracks has to get off the horse once. It is said that the most perverted non-commissioned officers even let their subordinates starve for two days in a row, and then lead them to run and run on the playground of the camp every day.
In every period of the Death Army Recruit Camp, there has been a large number of abuses of recruits, injuries abound, and even suicide or death due to abuse.
The old units of the Japanese Death Army were all personally trained by the ruffians of the Far Eastern Military Commission. Everyone is from modern society, and it is naturally not pleasing to the eye to look at these little devils, so the actions are bigger, more perverted, and more cruel......
This also laid a glorious imprint on the Death Army troops, which was passed down from generation to generation, and became more and more ruthless from generation to generation, until it has developed to this day, resulting in the tragedy of large-scale abuse of the Death Army recruits.
That is, a group of little Japan, they are used to being obedient, and they have all developed the habit of obeying orders. If it had been replaced by another unit, the camp would have been bombed a long time ago, and a mutiny would have been possible. But these little Japanese people endured it in a daze, but the resentment and violence that had accumulated in their hearts must not be less.
This is also the reason why the death army troops are so lethal every time they go to the battlefield. Fortunately, the obedience of the death army troops was very good, as long as the order was given not to kill innocent people, none of them dared to disobey it.
But as soon as the Far East gave them the order to kill, these guys instantly went berserk, like beasts...... (To be continued.) )
