One of the factions in the Japanese army in the early Showa period.After the "October Event" in 1931, it was mainly composed of military officers at the school level and above, with Yongtian Tieshan, Shihara Guaner, Okamura Ningci, Sugiyama Yuan, and Hideki Tojo as the core, who had previously participated in the Imperial Taoism Sakura Club.
He advocated abandoning the plan of transforming the country by force and preparing to establish military dictatorship by legal means.It believed that to promote the overall war system (which required solving the "China problem" first, then moving north and south, making preparations for long-term war with the United States and the Soviet Union, and eliminating the warlords in the military), it was necessary to unite some bureaucrats and emerging chaebol to carry out comprehensive restructuring and control in the political, ideological and economic fields. The attack on the imperial sects disturbed the order of the military, and it was necessary to strengthen the control in the military, hence the name.
In January 1934, after Lin Xianshilang replaced Shosuo Araki of the Huangdao School as the minister of the army, the school gained an advantage.Later, through the Xiangze incident and the "military purge" after the February 26 incident, they repelled and attacked the Huangdao faction, and mastered the internal dominance of the army.

After the "October Incident" in 1931, the fascists in the Japanese army regrouped into two mutually exclusive factions: one faction advocated continuing to overthrow the current cabinet by means of military coup, and the Emperor directly ruled by relying on the army.
They are called "Huangdao Sect" because they keep their mouth shut and open to "Huangdao" and "Huangwei".Its representative was once a land ministerSadao Araki Senior General and Army Education DirectorYoshihiro MakasakiSenior general, whose members are mostly young middle and lower level officers who have no status in the current regime, come from the countryside and are dissatisfied with the reality.Fascist theorists of the "Huangdao School"BeiyihuiThe Outline of the Japanese Reform Act had a great impact, advocating that the regime should be controlled by means of a coup, and the fascist dictatorship of the military headquarters should be implemented.
The members of the other faction are mostly members of the trusted group of Emperor Hirohito.They gradually occupied important positions in the middle and upper levels of the army after cleaning up the forces of the Changzhou vassals.Its representative is the number one person who enjoys the reputation of "three heroes" in the armyTetsuzan Nagata Major General, andHideki TojoMajor General, in addition, there are others who later succeeded Takeo Araki as the Land SecretaryHayashi Senjuro 。
This faction advocates maintaining the control of the central organs of the military headquarters, and believes that it is bloodymilitary coup d'etatIt is not conducive to the stability of the military and the political situation. It advocates the use of the existing position of the military headquarters to gradually expand its power in the war of foreign aggression, to transform the country by top-down legal means, and to establish a fascist regime under the control of the military headquarters. It is called the "control group".This faction has gotEmperor Hirohito Support.In fact, the two fascist warlords are consistent on the fundamental issue of "transforming the country" and establishing the fascist regime, but there are differences and contradictions in specific methods and steps.
Because of the support of most middle and upper class officers, the control group gradually gained the upper hand in the struggle against the imperial school.In January 1935, Shosuo Araki, who was supported by the Imperial Taoist School, resigned and Lin Milling took over as the land minister.In July, Lu Xianglin, the new commander of the control group, took the opportunity of personnel adjustment to transfer a group of officers sent by Emperor Dao to reserve service or field commanders.
One of the most important transfers was to remove Yoshihiro Makazaki, who enjoyed high prestige among the military officers of the Imperial School, from the post of Army Education Director and transfer him to the honorary post of Military Counselor.At this point, the control group replaced the imperial school and established its control over the army.Since the Japanese military headquarters has always been dominated by the army, controlling the army also means that the control group has mastered the dominant power over the military headquarters.[1]
