Under Yamashita Fengwen's order, the soldiers in the wing health center all took off their shoes, lay on the ground, and raised their feet high for Yamashita Fengwen to check.
Let me talk here, athlete’s foot and beriberi are actually two diseases.
The former is a fungal infection, and the latter is a foot ulcer caused by a lack of vitamin B1.
Severe cases can even lead to death.
Vitamin B1 is widely distributed in whole grains, lean meat, liver, and beans.
Originally, there was no shortage of Japanese people.
However, due to Japan’s recruitment policy of three bowls of polished rice per day, the early Japanese military rations only had polished rice, pickles and miso soup.
The supply of vitamin B1 is almost completely cut off.
This led to the spread of beriberi among the Japanese army.
During the Russo-Japanese War, according to incomplete statistics, an astonishing one-tenth of the number of people lost due to beriberi.
Later, Japan also spent great efforts on research, but because of the policy of refined rice, it never got better.
On the contrary, Navy Red Deer, because they follow the British example, eat bread at least three times a week, and have no shortage of various meats such as foie gras, etc., the disease rate is extremely low.
Yamashita Fengfumi thought he really had beriberi at first.
However, because of Wei Wu's reforms, the soldiers' rations were greatly enriched. After supplementing with various vitamins, almost everyone's face was glowing and their feet were very healthy.
It doesn't look like beriberi is festering.
This sight made Yamashita Fengwen very angry.
"Baga, you damn guys, pack up your things immediately and get ready to go. Within an hour, you won't be seen at the door, and everyone will be court-martialed!"
Under Yamashita Fengwen's urging, everyone in the Eighth Regiment reluctantly packed up and headed towards the city gate slowly.
After dealing with the Eighth Regiment, Yamashita Fengfumi headed towards the Ninth Regiment's station.
As soon as I arrived at the door of the station, I smelled a strong stench.
The stench seemed to have condensed into substance, and like a beast, it knocked Yamashita Fengwen to the ground.
"Cough cough cough..."
Yamashita Fengwen lay on the ground and coughed violently, and his eyes were filled with tears from the stench.
My vision is blurred.
"What's going on? Someone come in and take a look!"
Yamashita Fengwen ordered loudly.
The lieutenants behind him looked at each other and took a step back.
No one wants to go in.
This made Yamashita Fengwen very angry.
"You two, get in here, or you'll die~!"
Yamashita Fengwen took out the tortoise box, pointed at the two lieutenants and roared.
The two adjutants looked at each other and had no choice but to hold their noses and enter the wing headquarter.
At this time, the whole wing headquarters was filled with stench, and thousands of soldiers lined up at the door of the toilet with their pants lifted.
Many soldiers who couldn't wait directly found a corner to deal with it on the spot.
The ground is full of yellow grain reincarnation things.
Still thin.
Although the two lieutenants tried their best to be careful, they still stepped on it.
The splashing yellow mud soup covered the boots, and the two adjutants almost vomited on the spot.
"what happened?"
The adjutant found a captain who was squatting in a pit and questioned him.
The brigade captain held up his pants with one hand and said: "Our food has been laced with laxatives. The brigade captain suspects that there are anti-Manchu and anti-Japanese elements in the suppliers. In order to prevent us from dispatching, they have already gone to arrest them!"
After the captain finished speaking, he took off his pants again and squatted on the ground for convenience.
A stream of yellow mud spurted out.
The stench hit, causing the two lieutenants to suffer another mental attack.
Wei Wu had already reviewed this plan.
Historically, the Osaka Division also used feigning illness to delay its participation in the battle.
But, after all, it’s just pretending.
As long as you are willing to investigate, you can still find it.
And, he's now a hero of the Empire.
Being found to be pretending to be ill to avoid fighting will have a huge impact on his reputation.
The persona he managed to build with great difficulty may be destroyed in one day.
Therefore, after repeated consideration, Wei Wu decided to fake it and poured laxatives and croton into the team's breakfast.
In order to ensure its effectiveness, the measurement has been specially increased.
Then, this situation occurred.
Moreover, this can also put the blame on the security group that supplies supplies to their unit.
Normally, the materials for this Class A division are fully allocated by the Ministry of War.
However, due to the tight war situation, in order to save money, in addition to the normal distribution part of the meals for the various regiments located in the rear, part of them was outsourced to the security group.
Use their hands to search for food and fill the gap.
In order to please their masters, these security groups resorted to all possible means and plundered large amounts of food.
As a result, a large number of people lost their food rations and starved to death.
Wei Wu couldn't stand it for a long time.
Therefore, a plan was made that could not only delay time, but also kill a security group.
Remove this cancer.
Therefore, after the laxative attack, Wei Armed Forces made a mock inspection and concluded that this was the work of the security group responsible for supplying supplies.
Immediately took the orderly to the security group.
After getting the general situation from the captain, the two adjutants immediately rushed out holding their noses without stopping.
"How about it?"
Yamashita Fengwen asked anxiously after seeing the two people rushing out.
"Division Commander, this is what happened..."
The two adjutants recounted what they had learned.
At this moment, a burst of gunfire rang out in the distance.
"Where to shoot?"
Yamashita Fengwen looked warily at the direction from which the gunfire came.
"Division commander, judging from the direction, it should be where the security group is stationed."
"Right!"
Yamashita Fengfumi connected several things together and immediately figured out what happened.
In the morning, Higashino Takeshi's Ninth Regiment prepared to go out.
However, there were anti-Manchu and anti-Japanese elements hidden in the security group responsible for providing supplies. In order to hinder the expedition, laxatives were added to the food.
The witty and courageous Higashikata found the clues, followed the clues, and found the murderer.
The sound of gunshots was the result of the murderer's desperate act of jumping over the wall as a trapped animal still fighting.
"Quick, set off immediately to assist Lieutenant Colonel Higashino in capturing the anti-Manchu anti-Japanese elements!"
Yamashita Fengwen ordered loudly.
The direct guards of the division rushed towards the security group with a roar.
By the time they rushed outside the security team, there was already a river of blood inside.
The pungent smell of blood hit his face.
Yamashita Fengwen immediately rushed in with his people.
The ground was littered with fallen bodies.
At this time, Wei Wu was checking the corpses one by one.
After seeing Yamashita Fengwen coming in, he immediately stood up and saluted.
"General Yamashita."
"How is it going?"
Yamashita Fengwen asked.
"It has been found out that the head of the security group, Jia Wenkui, is an anti-Manchurian anti-Japanese element and a Russian spy. In order to hinder our expedition, he put laxatives in our food. He resisted during the arrest and has now been killed."
