In order to better study our cultural customs and some related traditions, it can be said that after the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japan, the Japanese also specially sent a lot of relevant personnel to various places to check and investigate some relevant cultural materials in their own occupied areas. Qinghui found a group of photographs taken with Yangwu in Henan, China, in April 1939 at Kyoto University in Japan, and the observation point of this group of photos was peculiar, because the photographer pointed his lens at some children on Yangwu Street.
Because it was April, it was still a relatively cold season, and in the streets of Yangwu, the Japanese found that children were wearing a strange hat. In this photo, we can see two children with their backs to the Camera Lens of a Japanese. It looks like it could be two people, the older brother and the younger brother, both wearing this very warm cotton hat.
The child in this photo is also wearing the same type of hat, but there are slight differences in style, and we also noticed that the top of this hat is open, specially for children with small braids.
This photo is still the little child in the photo above, but this time the face is turned around, and we can see that this seems to be a little girl, because the hat she is wearing has obvious pattern decorations, and it looks like a girl's hat.
In this photo, a young lady is holding her child, a young lady, and looks back to see a Japanese photographer who is taking pictures, and her child is also wearing such a hat, which is called a hood by the Japanese. It may be a little strange to see these photos, because I don't know why the Japanese did this, and what is the practical significance of them taking this photo and preserving them so hard? But this practice of the Japanese does show their wolf ambitions and long-term plans in Qinghui's view, because as we said at the beginning, after the Japanese invasion, the Japanese intended that their children and grandchildren would stay on the mainland forever, living on this land, and in order to achieve such a goal, they must have a comprehensive understanding of everything about us. From an objective point of view, such invaders are undoubtedly very frightening, because the purpose of their invasion is not simply to plunder some materials or human resources, but to completely integrate into it and rule the land permanently. It is hard to imagine what a terrible picture we would be today without the bloody struggles of our forefathers.
