In the Philippines, a small Japanese patrol is marching towards rice fields in Ifugao province. An anti-Japanese team followed them all the way! Marcos watched the Japanese patrol warily, trying to find out where their main force was deployed. At this time, he found that a Japanese soldier had left the team because his backpack was too heavy, which was a good opportunity.

He tried to keep him alive, but one of his players knocked down the Japanese soldier with a flying knife and the soldier rolled off the cliff.

He had to go down and check the contents of the Japanese soldier's backpack to see if there were any top secret documents.

However, the soldier didn't die at all, just hurt a little fur, and the soldier's two hands clutched the backpack tightly. This made him suspect that there were important documents in the bag. However, the end result is: instead of finding the document, he found the gold bar!

There are three gold bars in this marching backpack, weighing about 2.5 kilograms. For Marcos, the discovery of gold bars brought him more surprises than the discovery of top secret documents.

William Robin of the United States carefully described the gold bars in the Japanese marching backpack in The Treasure Pointing to Death. Is there anything valuable in the marching backpack?

Why do Japanese soldiers have to carry marching backpacks when fighting? Can you recite it after the war? We can see why backpacks become Japanese personal belongings from three angles.

Japanese soldiers do have to carry marching backpacks when fighting. From the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895 to the Russo-Japanese War and then to War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, Japanese marching backpacks have always been soldiers' belongings. It is said that Japan's Royal Guard is the most elite army. Including rifles and bayonets, the total weight of an ordinary infantry equipment is 50 pounds.

Including: 1 backpack, dry food bag, ammunition bag, 1 pair of boots, 1 blanket, 1 thick coat, 1 kettle, two-day supply.

When the Imperial Guard left Tokyo for the front, everyone took a pair of binoculars, which could be used for searching. It is not common to provide such equipment for individual soldiers. This shows that the Japanese management has considered all the details.

During the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, Japanese soldiers were armed to the teeth, and they even brought binoculars. Everything on them seems to be the latest style, just like the British army, everyone wears boots and has a spare pair of boots.

They carry old leather backpacks with fur used by Prussian soldiers and are equipped with rifles with magazines.

These soldiers are short in stature, but strong.

They seem to be in low spirits, which may be caused by the fatigue of sailing at sea, including the imperial guard, who came with the crown prince as cavalry sergeant.

Visible Japanese marching backpack, from the Sino-Japanese War to the Russo-Japanese War, and then to War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, the Japanese marching backpack has always been a soldier's personal belongings.

The Japanese army really has to carry a marching backpack when fighting. Qian is a soldier of Jingjiang Anti-Japanese Organization. When the money came, a Japanese soldier in Lu Yu went to the countryside to insult women.

When I saw the money that day, he asked him to stand up with his hands up.

Qian raised his hands and walked calmly to the Japanese army. When he approached the Japanese army, he suddenly pounced on it and pushed the Japanese army into the river. He immediately jumped into the river to fight with the Japanese army. Although the Japanese can swim, they have backpacks and guns, so it is difficult to resist the fierce attack of money.

After more than an hour of fighting, the Japanese army was exhausted. Money pushed it into the water to suffocate it, then dragged it ashore and beat it until the Japanese army died. After the Japanese army was killed, Qian took off his gun, bayonet, backpack and bullets, sank the body to the bottom of the river, and then returned to the station of the Self-Defense Force. It seems that Japanese devils carry backpacks when they do bad things, which seems to be their lifeblood.

There is another example!

It is said that when the Japanese vanguard troops arrived in Mao Ping Depression, some people organized dozens of people to shoot at close range and at random, killing some enemies. The Japanese didn't know the details, so they had to evacuate and hide.

Just then, several township policemen rushed out of the Woods and captured a Japanese soldier alive. This Japanese army has rifles, bayonets, shovels, backpacks, beef powder, biscuits and so on. After the capture, two township police officers sent the captured people and things to the Qiu Zi county government.

After the success of Pingxing Pass, the ghost soldiers' yellow uniforms, big-headed shoes, cowhide marching backpacks, kettles and lunch boxes became countless trophies of the Eighth Route Army.

There is an "Imperial Comfort Station" next door. Corporal, the price of an officer is one yuan and fifty cents. "Bathing is just a name. Next door seems like a good place. Everyone doesn't know how many times to "take a bath"! I've been there twice. Hey! "

August 15 eyes! Get up at four o'clock before noon and pack your things! It leaves for Shanghai North Station at six o'clock. The backpack is so heavy that I can't stand it!

"Diary of a Japanese soldier in battle" once recorded that the Japanese army did not know the way, nor did it know how many times it went back and forth. What a fool! How can troops March like this?

I have time to drink every day, and it will take me some time to find out the way. I really don't want to: get up at 3 o'clock before noon on August 17, and leave the dormitory for the resident Molingguan at 5 o'clock.

The heavy backpack was on my shoulder, and it was getting hot. It's really unbearable. There is no water at all. That's terrible! It's terrible. I tasted the pain of marching in the afternoon.

The myth that the Japanese army was invincible was shattered: the loot of the Eighth Route Army in Pingxingguan was still full of ammunition, fittings, clothes, food, biscuits and cigarettes, and guns and ammunition were thrown everywhere!

Guizibing's yellow uniforms, big shoes, cowhide backpacks, kettles and lunch boxes are countless!

Sun flags, cloths and silks, large and small, full of words and symbols, are all thrown on the ground like garbage; Secret documents such as battle plans, orders and intelligence are like paper money for Japanese funerals.

It is said that people in the nearby ravine, when they heard that the Eighth Route Army had defeated the Japanese, all ran happily to help the troops gather and carry the loot, and the cars that could not be transported were also set on fire.

1973 The History of Hamada United Front published in Japan describes the Battle of Pingxingguan in this way: "As soon as the car passes through the village, you will meet the enemy and get off immediately", and the whole army will be wiped out!

Japanese marching backpacks are really heavy, but only when sleeping or being defeated.

The search squad leader made a decisive decision and shot at the grass with a submachine gun, which caught the devil off guard!

The ambush killed four people at once by the national army, and many devils ran away when they saw something bad.
