The Eighth Route Army is an anti-Japanese army. There are countless records about the heroic deeds of the Eighth Route Army in history, but what I mainly want to talk to you about is the clothing of the Eighth Route Army. As can be seen from some film and television dramas, as the Eighth Route Army, everyone must wear uniform clothes, and the hats of the Eighth Route Army are very distinctive. They have two buttons on each hat. Do you know what the two buttons on the Eighth Route Army hat mean? The style of the Eighth Route Army uniform is fixed-the style of the National Revolutionary Army is only distinguished by the cloth armbands of the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army worn on the left arm. The clothes styles of cadres and soldiers are only slightly different from those of pockets. The cadres sewed two more pockets. In the early days of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, the dome around the straight cylinder worn by the Eighth Route Army was decorated with the small cap badge of the * * * army.

Actually, it's not like this. Traditionally, an Eighth Route Army soldier's equipment should include the Eighth Route Army's military cap, uniform, shoes, leggings, bullet belts, Grenade bags, belts and quilts, usually two pairs of shoes. Auxiliary equipment also includes dry food bags and bowl bags. But it is actually difficult to meet the standards.

Officers can also carry more bags or horses, or, in fashion, a bag, which is almost the embodiment of the difference between officers and soldiers.

Let's start from the beginning. The eighth route army cap is probably the most common military uniform of the eighth route army. Many soldiers only get a military cap and an armband when they join the army. During the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression period, the armbands worn by the Eighth Route Army were rectangular, with a standard size of 8.5cm? .5cm, white cloth background, blue printing, with the word "Eight Roads" in the middle. Everyone is familiar with armbands, why military caps are the most common equipment for Eighth Route Army soldiers. First of all, I personally think that the military cap is the same as that of * * * at that time, but the cap emblem of * * * is changed into a button. This time, the inventory is very large. There are many abandoned clothing warehouses in Shanxi. It's also strange, but it's also very simple. At that time, the warehouse supervisor stole a lot of clothes, but left a hat. Does he know that the Eighth Route Army lacks military caps? This is just a joke, mainly because no one wants a military cap. The most important thing is that the Eighth Route Army caps save raw materials and attract attention. Although it is my personal opinion, the Eighth Route Army is poor in the world. Local armed cadres in counties and districts can wear an eight-route army hat, which is the standard image of cadres. At that time, the local troops of the Eighth Route Army who contributed to cooperative operations were rewarded with two military hats. I looked at it again and again. This battle was a shot of the Eighth Route Army in Yutai, Shandong Province, killing more than 80 Japanese puppet troops. So it paid off.

Then, let's talk about military uniforms. The style of the Eighth Route Army uniforms is generally fixed, but the materials and colors are quite different. During the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression period, the environment was very difficult. Under the leadership of * * *, the anti-Japanese base areas can only make military uniforms from local materials according to their own conditions, and the fabrics and dyes that each base area comes into contact with are different. Some guerrillas behind enemy lines don't even have military uniforms, and the casual clothes of the masses are their military uniforms. Generally speaking, the Eighth Route Army uniforms come from two sources. One is the production of the army and local garment factories, and the other is the capture. The uniforms of the Eighth Route Army are often coarse homespun produced by local farmers themselves, and the dyeing is the standard "eight-way gray", which we often see in film and television works, but this is not the case in reality.

According to the information I have at hand, the uniforms of the Eighth Route Army have at least four commonly used colors, yellow, yellow-green, grass green and gray. As for fabrics, it is even more important for the Eight Immortals to cross the sea, and each base has its own decision. The representative thing is that the uniforms of the four military divisions of the Shandong Military Region are very bright, which is absolutely confusing.

For example, yellow-green military uniforms, Sophora japonica harvested in spring are crushed and mixed with dyes, so that the dyed cloth is bright in color and does not fade after washing. Nie said the reason for choosing yellow-green color: yellow implies that we are descendants of the Yellow River and the backbone of the Chinese nation; Green is a symbol of evergreen life. Nonsense, he never dreamed that it would be dyed gray, but there is no raw material there, and it is not easy to get it in plant ash. In Shandong, Bohai Military Region and Jiaodong Military Region, the troops have a clear division of labor and different colors.

The Eighth Route Army also has standard clothing in the armed style behind enemy lines. Chinese tunic suit coat, gray trousers, similar to casual clothes, easy for ordinary people to wear, suitable for camouflage reconnaissance, close to the elite. However, this kind of clothing is not mass-produced and can only be seen in a few old photos.

Now the Eighth Route Army uniforms in film and television works are uniform, but this is not the case at all. The Eighth Route Army headquarters and the troops directly under the Eighth Route Army headquarters, such as the Cavalry Corps and the Guard Corps, as well as the Northern Bureau, the Border Party Committee, the Anti-Japanese Military and Political University, Xinhua News Agency and other institutions, can all get close to the equipment of the clothing factory of the General Logistics Department of the Eighth Route Army before they can get the table. Later, the photos and film materials left behind were all based on them, and they did not lose much to the Eighth Route Army. The reputation of state authorities for discriminating against miscellaneous brands is still very loud. For example, the Central Army was legally convened by Mrs. Tang Huo. For example, the Jin Sui Army and the Northeast Army were little motherly, and the Eighth Route Army was raised by a stepmother.
