    Koiso Kuniaki is a native of Yamagata Prefecture, and he is the eldest son of the police officer Koiso Susumu. ¥ì.si³ke.?˼?·&c³bs;¿Í¥ì studied at Yamagata Prefectural Junior High School (Yamagata Prefectural Yamagata Higashi High School).  As the eldest son in his family, after graduating from middle school, he felt that he had little hope of entering college (higher education). The family did not have any assets for him to inherit, but his body was still relatively strong.  At that time, Japan had just finished the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1894. Due to the interference of Russia, Germany and France, which lost the Liaodong Peninsula that they had already obtained, a wave of enthusiasm for military power arose across the country.

    Therefore, under the influence of this trend, Xiaoji also applied for the Army Sergeant School, taking the military as his ambition.  According to the regulations of the Japanese Army, middle school graduates like him must enter the army with the rank of first-class private in December of that year. After a year of service training, they can be promoted to sergeant before they can enter the non-commissioned officer school in Tokyo.  

    The study period of the sergeant school is one and a half years. After graduation, the military rank will be promoted to the rank of Captain Cao and he will return to the original regiment.  Koiso's grades were relatively high when he graduated from the 12th grade of the Imperial College, ranking 79th out of 655 students. Although he was not as good as Moto Sugiyama and Shunroku Hata in the same period, for a student who had never attended the Imperial College, it was still high.  It's not easy anymore.  After graduation, he returned to the 30th Infantry Regiment where he had previously served and served as a cadet for half a year before being awarded the rank of second lieutenant.  The commander of the regiment, Colonel Yasumi Furutani (Rokushi 3rd term), summoned all members of the 30th Regiment as usual and announced that Kuniaki Koiso was awarded the rank of infantry second lieutenant and was appointed attached to the regiment.

    After three years of struggle, Xiaoji finally became an officer.  Participated in the Russo-Japanese War and served as captain of the 30th Infantry Regiment in March 1906.  In 1907, he was admitted to the 22nd class of Army University. Among the students in the same period were Sugiyama Gen, Hata Shunroku, Nishio Hisao, Takeda Miya, the eldest son of Prince Kitashirakawa Nohisa, and Kodama Tomooo, the third son of General Kodama Gentaro.  When he graduated, his grades were average, ranking 33rd out of 51 students.  In addition, he was not from the Changzhou Domain, so after graduation, he was assigned not to go to a central government agency, but to be assigned to Lu Shi as an instructor.  

    In 1912, Koiso Kuniaki served as a staff officer of the Kanto Governor's Office and put forward important suggestions on strengthening Japan's rule over Northeast China, which was appreciated by Tanaka Giichi.  In August 1914 (the third year of Taisho), he was appointed captain of the 2nd Infantry Regiment and Jin Shaozuo. On January 18, 1915, Yuan Shikai signed the "Twenty-one" traitorous treaty with Japan. In May, he openly promoted the imperial movement and China  Anti-Yuan movements were launched in various places.

    The Japanese ruling group also believes that "it is appropriate for Yuan Shikai to withdraw from the group of Chinese leaders" and wants to establish a Chinese government under Japanese control after Yuan Shikai's fall, so as to carve up China at will.  At the same time, the Japanese government planned the second "Manchu independence" movement. The Japanese Staff Headquarters consisted of Tanaka Yiichi, Deputy Chief of Staff, and Fukuda Masaru, who had just been transferred from Chief of Staff of the Kanto Governor's Office to Minister of the Second Department of the General Staff Headquarters.  Taro was the direct commander behind the scenes. In order to guide the success of the "Manchuria Independence" movement on the spot, the Japanese General Staff Headquarters dispatched Colonel Doi Ichinosu, Major Koiso Kuniaki, Captain Matsui Kiyosuke, and Suzuki Masaki in mid-March 1916.  Taro's first-class chief engineer and four other people headed to Northeast China.

    However, the Minister to China, Ijuin, the Acting Consul General in Fengtian, Yada Nanitaro, and Foreign Minister Ishii believed that "trying to set off an unethical and predatory small riot under the cover of our military's constitutional power" has no hope of success.  "If it is to instigate internal rebellion against a powerful force like the Chinese *** Corps and launch a reliable riot on this basis, that is a different matter." Deputy Chief of Staff Tanaka Yiichi also changed his mind and believed that it would be better to use Zhang Zuolin to carry out the attack.  The "Manchu independence" movement was more beneficial than the plans of Doi, Koiso, Kawashima Naniwa and others.

    However, Doi, Koiso, Kawashima and others, headed by the Kanto Governor Nakamura Kakudai, still insisted on supporting the benevolent elders of the Socialist Party and opposed the wooing of Zhang Zuolin.  On May 7th, he sent Koiso back to Japan to meet with Tanaka Yiichi and Fukuda to express his opinions on "suspension" of the incident. He did not return to Luda until May 25th.  On June 6, Yuan Shikai died suddenly, Li Yuanhong became president, and Duan Qirui became prime minister.  The Japanese government had to stop its anti-Yuan activities and instead adopt a policy of supporting Duan Qirui in order to control China. The second "Manchu independence" movement was forced to stop.

    Of course, in this time and space of 1918, Koiso Kuniaki is still just a major, commanding the 12th Cavalry Brigade of the 4th Cavalry Regiment. He is doing the work of building bridges, paving roads, guarding the rear, and escorting logistical equipment. The 38-year-old Xiao  In terms of seniority and age, there is no doubt that Kuniaki Oiso, who was promoted to major 4 years ago and served as the captain of the infantry group, faced the other two cavalry brigades, such as Major Nishio Hisao who was second in the 22nd RKU class.  My career has stalled a bit

    You must know that Major Iida Sadagu of the 10th Cavalry Battalion is 4 years younger than Oiso Kuniaki. Iida Sadagu, who graduated from the 24th batch of the University of China, is also the Major Captain at the moment, and the command of the 10th Cavalry Battalion is still  The pioneer of the Yonezawa United team, he is favored by the team captain Yonezawa Kogoro.  Xiaoji was disadvantaged because he was a little older, and he didn't come from Lu Yong, Lu Shi and Lu Da all the way. He was a middle school student who joined the army and was admitted to Lu Shi.

    And Kuniaki Koiso was born in Yamagata Prefecture, did not belong to the Choshu clan, and it is understandable that his career was a bit faltering in the early years. As an unknown person in both the Rishi and the mainland, Koiso Kuniaki was able to be transferred to the 4th Cavalry Regiment of the 3rd Division of Japan at the end of 1917.  , in fact, he came from Yonezawa's hometown. At the moment, Yonezawa Kogoro, captain of the 4th Cavalry Regiment, did not do well after graduating from Xiaoji University, but because Yonezawa Kogoro was from Yamagata,  (Yonezawa Prefecture was merged into Yamagata Prefecture in 1871, Yonezawa was born in 1877, and Koji was born in 1880)

    Yonezawa Kogoro, who was born in the declining Yonezawa clan, graduated from the 20th semester of the mainland university in seventh place. In just ten years, he was promoted from captain, major, lieutenant to captain of the cavalry regiment, becoming a 41-year-old  The captain of the cavalry regiment, Yonezawa Kogoro can be regarded as an absolutely smooth-sailing young officer. If nothing happens, even if he waits for another 6 years to become a general, Yonezawa Kogoro will still be worthy of Yonezawa's hometown elders.

    Of course, Colonel Yonezawa Kogoro, the descendant of the Yonezawa clan who graduated seventh in the 20th batch of the mainland university, also did not forget to support his fellow villagers in Yamagata Prefecture. Koiso Kuniaki, who was depressed at the General Staff Headquarters, was recruited by him to serve as a cavalryman.  The captain of the 4th Regiment, but Kuniaki Koiso has not waited for the turn of events. At this moment, he can only be said to be playing the rear role of the 4th Cavalry Regiment.
