During the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression period, the puppet troops and the Imperial Association Army were traitors. Is there a difference between the two?

In many anti-Japanese dramas, it's not only the invaders that make people gnash their teeth, but also the traitors who betray their compatriots. But even traitors can be divided into puppet troops and imperial association troops. What is the difference between them?

(1) Puppet troops

In that stormy era, the people of the whole country fought against the invaders, but there were still a group of people who willingly chose to obey and became the existence of wagging their tails against the aggressors. They became accomplices of the invaders and killed their compatriots. The most typical example is the Japanese soldiers in China, who are called the traitor troops. One is called the Puppet Army, and the other is called the Imperial Association Army. These two terms have different concepts.

The puppet troops, as the name implies, are the troops of the puppet regime, mainly referring to the armed forces organized by the aggressor countries to surrender soldiers from the people or enemies of the invaded countries or regions. In China, they mostly refer to the traitor troops who assisted the Japanese in military activities during the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression period. During the period of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, there were four pseudo-governments in China: Wang Jingwei pseudo-national government, Puyi pseudo-Manchukuo government, Beiping Wang Kemin pseudo-North China government committee, and Inner Mongolia Wang De pseudo-Mongolian autonomous government.

Although the latter two were incorporated into the puppet national government after its establishment, they still maintained a high degree of independence and formed their own system. Therefore, during the Anti-Japanese War, there were four puppet troops in China: the Peace Building Army of Wang Jingwei's puppet government, the Puppet Manchukuo Army of Puppet Manchukuo, the Puppet North China Public Security Army of Puppet North China Government Committee, and the Puppet Mongolian Army of Puppet Mongolian Autonomous Government. These troops are called "two dog" and "traitor troops" by the common people.

(2) Imperial Allied Forces

Talk? Imperial Union Army? In fact, there is a fixed name, that is, the North China Public Security Army of the pseudo-North China Government Affairs Committee. North China Security Army, also known as North China appeasement Army, commonly known as? Imperial Union Army? Two demons? During the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression period, it was a puppet and puppet army set up by the Japanese North China Army in North China. The uniforms of the North China Public Security Army refer to the uniforms and dress designs of the Germans at that time. This uniform is very distinctive, and its color is blue. The officer's coat is a suit with a small lapel and tie, which makes the small lapel and tie appear in China's military uniform for the first time. Like the Puppet Manchurian Army, the hat badge is a five-nation * * * and a five-colored five-pointed star, but the red and yellow are reversed. The rank is the same as that of the national army, except that the triangle has become a pentagram.

Later, because the puppet regime in North China was merged into the puppet government of Wang, the uniform of the puppet troops was unified, which was basically the same as that of the Chongqing government. (The hat badge is different) Why did the North China Public Security Army become? Two demons? Because they resolutely implemented Japan's policy of aggression against China and pointed their finger at the Eighth Route Army and patriots who resolutely resisted Japan. They arbitrarily arrested anti-Japanese soldiers and civilians, burned and looted, and committed heinous crimes. The Eighth Route Army launched a campaign to continuously attack the security forces in North China. By the time Japan announced its surrender on August 5th, 1945 had been destroyed by our army.

To sum up, in short, the difference between the Royal Association Army and the Puppet Army lies in: the Royal Association Army is the North China Public Security Army and a kind of Puppet Army; The puppet army is the general name of all kinds of puppet regime forces, including the imperial association army. The puppet army can't be called the imperial association army, but it can be called the puppet army. But they are all the same in essence, and they are traitors who are punished by everyone.
