-The prelude to the Nanjing Massacre.
Just as orientals are superstitious about Buddhism, westerners are superstitious about the sanctity of the Bible. According to the Bible, Jesus had dinner with his twelve disciples. Judas, who was near the table, looked mean and scared, clutching a bag of gold coins in his right hand. Jesus was crucified because of Judas' betrayal. Therefore, "thirteen" is an unlucky black number. You can find the house number 13 on the street in Holland, but there are no rows and seats in British cinemas. Americans will never go out on 13.
On this day-19371February 13, five divisions of Japanese invaders were annihilated in Nanjing, the capital of China!
1February 13 is the day when Madrid surrendered to Napoleon.
1February 13 is the day when Russian troops occupied Lushun port in China.
1February 13 is a disastrous day!
Trapped city
Late at night, the gunfire gradually faded down, and only some places in the city fired a string of red and green flares into the dark night sky, which was the target of the traitors bombing the enemy planes.
On the rostrum of Zhonghua Gate, Qiu Weida, the head of the delegation, has just commanded a fierce battle. Two hours ago, Hu Hao, Battalion Commander of 3rd Battalion, called to report that the protruding part of the wall between Zhonghua Gate and Shuiximen had been broken, and the Japanese siege army was climbing up with rope ladders.
Through the dark night fog, the dragon-shaped wall has been blown down by Japanese planes and shells in several places. Yuhuatai fell in the afternoon. At this moment, this is the first line. He gave an order on the phone: "Choose a hundred able-bodied soldiers to form a death squad and fight back against the enemy within an hour. When the task is completed, the officers and men will be promoted to the third level! "
Putting down the receiver, he walked out of the command post and ordered the machine gun artillery to cover directly. At this time, the brave Hu Hao led the death squads to roar into the enemy lines. Bayonets hit each other, cold light set each other off, bullets fired at each other, blood splashed, and ShaSheng was deafening. Stubborn enemies and fearless soldiers huddled together, fighting and struggling, and some rolled down the wall together! In less than an hour, all the enemy soldiers who broke into the city wall were destroyed, and a dozen were captured alive. In close combat, battalion commander Hu and deputy Liu Tuan were shot down.
At this time, Mr. Wang called: "The situation in the whole city is very chaotic, and resistance is impossible. In order to save strength, the troops can retreat with cameras after completing the current mission, and the direction of retreat is north of Pukou. "
Putting down the phone, he immediately felt that the situation was not good. The enemy is still fighting back. How can we retreat? Qiu Weida, the head of the Lieutenant Colonel, couldn't make up his mind, so he had to find several company commanders to study the evacuation plan with the battalion commander.
The flashlight took a few pictures of the map, and machine gun bullets rained down on the command post. Colonel Qiu was shot in the left leg, injured the artery and bled profusely, so he had to be carried down the wall on a stretcher. He didn't wake up until Shimonoseki.
Most of the troops who were ordered to retreat withdrew from their positions. 13 at 0: 00 a.m. 10, Hasegawa troops, the vanguard of the Japanese Sixth Division, broke into the strongest Zhonghua Gate in Nanjing 19. Then, the Japanese Okamoto troops also rushed into the city. The south gate of Nanjing has fallen!
At three o'clock in the morning, the teaching corps of the Kuomintang Central Military Academy guarding Zhongshan Gate and the second and fourth squadrons of the security police suffered heavy losses after three days of fierce fighting. The enemy continued to bombard with heavy artillery, and the officers and men guarding the city bravely resisted. But the permanent fortifications made of reinforced concrete can't stand the bombardment of any gunner. At first, the beams of fortifications used bamboo instead of steel bars. Although the outside is covered with cement, the bamboo inside is dry and rotten. The teaching corps is Chiang Kai-shek's iron guard. Not only well-equipped, but also cadres are Chiang Kai-shek's cronies. How can they stand such humiliation? At that time, the people were furious and unanimously demanded that Chiang Kai-shek be reported and Gu, the garrison commander who built the Yugoslav capital fortifications, be severely punished.
There was another fierce shelling, and the golden-red gunner and the gray-black smoke rose to the wall. Some people fell down again. The wounded soldier kept moaning. The officers and men guarding the city knew that the tide was over, but they fired a burst of shells, and the bullets of Czech machine guns were densely fired at the Japanese positions outside the city.
The officers and men of the German-equipped teaching corps and the police began to retreat.
As the day dawned, the Japanese troops who attacked Yoko Zhongshan Gate in the east of Nanjing and the partisanship troops let out a scream and rushed through the barbed wire and dagou to protect the city. When the Japanese arrived at Weiqiao, they stepped on mines and killed more than a dozen people.
The Japanese troops who rushed to the gate first, regardless of the shooting of the retreating defenders on the wall, climbed up the wall from the collapsed gap like wasps. Some people roared to remove sandbags that closed the city gates, and some Japanese soldiers went up and down the city walls looking for China soldiers guarding the city. In case of the disabled who can't move, they will kill them mercilessly with bayonets.
The defenders who lost their resistance became prisoners of the invaders. On the wall of Zhongshan Gate, which is more than ten meters high, there are a group of Kuomintang officers and men who laid down their weapons. They looked at the fierce arrogance of the winner with frightened eyes. The cold wind roared and they shivered.
Japanese soldiers rushed in with bright bayonets. They roared and stabbed the prisoners in the chest and waist one by one, with blood everywhere. With shouts and screams, the prisoners were stabbed down the high wall one by one.
Chen, deputy commander of the 87th Division and brigade commander of the 26 1 brigade who assisted the 259th Brigade in guarding Guanghuamen, looked at the vast night sky and listened to the scattered gunfire, making his heart burn. It was the early morning of 13, and the radio station could not contact the headquarters. There is no garrison on the wall in the direction of Zhongshan Gate, and the young officers of Huangpu Phase III are puzzled. At this time, Tianfang Sun, the deputy brigade commander who sent the master to listen to the situation, came back panting on his bicycle. He said, "Many troops have retreated, Shimonoseki is in a mess, no one is in command, and many people are crowded there. It seems that Nanjing is undefended. "
Chen thought, no, since we retreated, why didn't we receive the order? Besides, face-to-face confrontation with the enemy Behind is the moat, and the enemy on the high ground of the old ice factory on the right blocked the passage to Guanghuamen. But I don't know why, Guanghuamen couldn't hear the guns, but he still commanded the troops to resist. At dawn, several fires broke out in the city, such as Xinjiekou and Gulou. 26 1 brigade has sacrificed 200 to 300 officers and men, and the number of wounded has increased to more than 500. Now is a dilemma. He didn't dare to withdraw because there were military orders before the war.
Chen picked up the phone and asked Liu, the 260 brigade guarding Guanghuamen, to move closer. The phone is disconnected. It turns out that the 260 brigade has retreated.
We can't hesitate any longer. Chen called the officers above battalion level to a meeting in a small room. Most people say that only by retreating can we get rid of the siege. He didn't dare to leave without leave, and his subordinates signed the resolution one by one, indicating that * * * should take the responsibility of retreating together.
The beaten army carried the wounded soldiers, stumbled through the hail, and fled to the Yangtze River in the northwest of the city as if for their lives. The skirmisher trenches inside and outside the wall of Guanghuamen are full of bodies, sandbags and logs across the road are still burning, and there are many dead people lying next to them. Japanese tanks rumbled past the bodies, across the Una Bridge, and across the meridian gate!
Nanjing has fallen! 1February 13, Japanese army reporters invading China sent a telegram to Japan at the fastest speed: [13, Allied Alliance University Campus] Xiao Ye, Piantong, Fujii and other troops rushed into Nanjing from the blasting holes on the left and right city walls centered on Zhongshan Wen, pursued hastily, defeated the enemy, and headed for the Ming Palace along Zhongshan Road. Earth-shattering gunfire rang in the east of Nanjing. The enemy concentrated firearms on the main front line of the Forbidden City in the Ming Dynasty in an attempt to stop our army from advancing, and they are stubbornly resisting.
1February 13 When the Japanese invaded Nanjing, the Asahi Shimbun published an extra number mainly in the form of photos. "Yomiuri Shimbun" also reported in the same big second night issue with the topics of "Completely annihilating Nanjing" and "Launching a big annihilation war in all parts of the city": [Floating Island Commissioner 13 Sun Nanjing sent an urgent telegram] As our left-wing troops crossed the river and occupied Pukou, the frontier troops captured the gate of Nanning, and the enemy completely surrounded about 50,000 enemy troops below Tang Shengzhi. Starting from this morning, in order to complete the final stage of the Nanjing Great Attack, a heroic street battle and a great annihilation war began. Defending the northwest front of Nanking is Gui Jun under the leadership of Bai Chongxi, with the Guangdong Army in the east and the 88th Division directly under Chiang Kai-shek in the south, continuing to struggle in various regions. However, after our army turned into the general attack in the city, by eleven o'clock in the morning, it had controlled most of the city and occupied all the important organs in the city, leaving only the area north of the city unoccupied. The whole city was ablaze, and our army shot wildly, which was extremely heroic. It is playing an unprecedented sad song of the Far East city. Nanjing has been completely annihilated by our army. For the war situation since the incident, a major trial has come.
sea wave
The defeated soldiers retreated to the river like a flood.
Ouyang Wu, the head of the regiment, heard that Jiangmen was blocked, so he came to Shimonoseki with three infantry companies, a heavy machine gun company and a mortar platoon from the coal port. This is the zero point of 13.
Shimonoseki pier is crowded with people. He pushed Zhang Shaoxun, the head of the regiment, but he didn't find it, but he met Wu, the head of the 2 15 regiment. Wu Guangzong said, "Where can I find someone at this time?" Take the troops and find a boat to cross the river. "
Where can I find a boat? The road by the river is crowded with retired stragglers, defeated soldiers, cannons, vehicles and fleeing men, women and children, crying! From time to time, the Japanese reconnaissance plane flew around like a whirlwind, dropping several eye-catching flares on the river, scaring people to run around with their heads held!
Although it is a cold winter, the river is full of people. Without a boat, they used door panels, wooden pots, counters, bamboo, telephone poles, and even meat boxes and water tanks as equipment for crossing the river, and some even fired at each other for crossing the river. As long as you can find something floating, jump into the river with your arms! Their ships have broken through the Wulong Mountain Scenic Resort battery, and the machine guns are sweeping to the river! Bullets flying, the river surging, ghosts crying on the river!
Wang, the monitor of Command, took a dozen soldiers, each with a mauser pistol in his hand, and finally got four from the ship controlled by the 66th Army of Guangdong Army. There are few boats and many people, and they all jumped up like hungry wolves before they reached the shore. Some ships sank on the spot, and heavy machinery and artillery platoon didn't even get on board. Arriving in Jiangbei at dawn, Ouyang Wu arrived at one o'clock, and only over 100 people crossed the Yangtze River in the whole camp.
Compared with General Chen, the battalion commander Ouyang Wu is lucky. When Chen arrived at Shimonoseki Station with the remains before dawn, he met an adjutant from the headquarters. At this time, he has not eliminated the fear of AWOL, because commander Wang Jingjiu and teachers Shen Fa retreated to Jiangbei the day before. Angry and anxious, he spent five days defending Nanjing. Not only did he never see his superiors once, but he didn't even pass on the evacuation order. What is important now is how to lead troops across the river.
He studied under Liu Qixiong, Brigadier of the 260th Brigade. The chubby and dark brigade commander Liu said, "Go to Xinhe and break through in the direction of Wuhu!"
Chen said to him, "No, the Japanese army has been surrounded by a big encirclement. First, they will lose Wuhu, and then attack the capital. Or they will go to Longtan along the river and take the mountain road to Zhejiang. "
The grumpy Liu Qixiong disagreed and said, "Pay! Each person has100000 tickets for the Bank of China. Go to the refugee area first and hide! "
He brought some people into town. Nearly a hundred people followed Chen downstream. The more people left, the more officers and men of the 87th Division followed. When everyone saw the general with a red bar and a golden triangle star walking in front of him, they all followed the man in tweed military uniform coat with hope for life. Chen is the highest-ranking commander among the defeated soldiers who came down from Shimonoseki Wharf. As he walked, he shouted, "Come on! Keep up! "
After lunch, I went to Yanziji, and he sat on the hillside to rest. Known and unknown soldiers shouted around him: "Commodore, we obey your orders!" " ""brigadier general, we will act with you! "
Chen arranged for the guards to stand guard at the top of the mountain and told him, "The Japanese army is going to Nanjing. Don't pay attention to him, just observe and don't fire. We will go to Maoshan in the dark. " As soon as the whistle was in place, this mixed army of 2,000 to 3,000 people gathered to speak. After talking about the current sinister situation, he told everyone to be fearless in times of crisis and also talked about the direction of breakthrough. Then there is the formation, with officers, non-commissioned officers and soldiers standing on one side. While gathering, the sentry on the mountain fired. Hearing the gunshot, several cadres scattered and scrambled to escape in Shimonoseki.
The sentry flew down from the mountain and shouted, "The Japanese are going up the mountain, run!" "The guard dragged the brigade commander to the river. There is no boat by the river. Looking back, Chen saw that the Japanese army had rushed down from the mountain, and even the red collar on the yellow military uniform could be seen clearly. Seeing that he was desperate, he pulled out his pistol and prepared to commit suicide. The guard next to him hugged him: "Commodore, you can't shoot!" " "I cannot be a prisoner!" He struggled. At this critical juncture, the adjutant Kong and platoon leader Zhang of the spy platoon found a ship board blown up by enemy planes from nowhere. Several crowded cooks pushed Chen to hold the board, and the generals in yellow wool clothes soaked in the river and shouted, "Come on, brothers, let's die together!" "
The boards went down the river. All the people on the river are running for their lives. The Japanese heavy and light machine guns fired at the river together, and the hail stirred up pieces of water on the river, and the voice of shouting "Help" tore my heart and cracked my lungs. Less than twenty or thirty meters after drifting, the board sank. The guard looked pale, and three or four of the seven or eight people put down the board. Some people shouted "look out, sir!" " It sank.
Chen grabbed a corner of the chessboard. There are only two guards around, and the boards stand obliquely, ups and downs in the river. Drowned bodies and bodies shot by enemy ships kept drifting by. Chen was very angry and burst into tears.
While struggling, a few bundles of reeds and firewood floated nearby, and a man stood on it, holding a sheet cloth as a sail. The guard said to him in a low voice, "Brother, give us two thousand dollars to save our brigade commander!" " "
Chen Ye, who choked a few mouthfuls of water, begged: "Help, help!"
On the reed is a young man in his twenties. When he saw a general floating in the water, he wanted to save him, but he was embarrassed. He said, "it's not easy, I have a bike on it!" " "
"Take it off and I'll pay you a new one!" Chen took advantage of the opportunity of reeds passing by and grabbed the floating row in one hand. His hands and feet were numb and he shivered against the northwest wind on the river. The young man who saved him was a nursing staff sergeant named Ma Zhenhai from Yang Guo. Soldiers and generals float on reeds, like a reed crossing the river. It was not until dark that the two climbed up the beach from the mud with one foot high and one foot low. They walked towards the place with lights. The old man in the fish shed said, "This is Bagua Island, and you are still in the middle of the river!" " "
There are thousands of people floating in Shimonoseki, Bagua Island. The towns and villages on the dam and under the dam are crowded with people. Japanese ships surrounded the sandbar. Chen found some of his soldiers here. One foggy morning, Ma Zhenhai tied a raft with several soldiers, who carried guns to protect the brigade commander. Finally, they quietly crossed Jiajiang and escaped from occupied Nanjing.
There are also many people who can't escape from Nanjing or cross the Yangtze River, which is another fate. Fifty years later, white-haired Chen said to me sadly, "As a general, I am sorry for my soldiers. At two o'clock in the morning on the 13th, we withdrew from our position and passed the tomb of the Prince of Wu. Two or three hundred soldiers with broken legs and arms knelt on the ground and stopped me, crying and demanding to take them away. My heart was broken at that time, and I was a brother who had gone through a lot of hardships. How can I leave them? But there is nothing I can do but apologize to them in tears. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, the battalion commander Chen and a company commander surnamed Duan told me with crutches that two or three hundred wounded soldiers next to the tomb of King Wu were killed by the Japanese army. They climbed out of the dead! "
On that day, Qiu Qingquan, chief of staff of the teaching corps, dressed as a cook and then mixed out of the city. Teacher Sun, who retreated from Yuhuatai, asked the people for cover after dressing up. Liao Yaoxiang, the commander's chief of staff, was sent to Jiangbei overnight by a farmer in Yanziji. Niu Xianming, an engineer battalion commander guarding Guanghuamen, fled to Yongqing Temple near the Yangtze River, and a monk disguised as a monk for several months escaped the disaster. Every survivor who has experienced this catastrophe has a story of a narrow escape.
Yan Kaiyun, who wears a pair of purple glasses and speaks a strong Sichuan dialect, is now over the age of ancient times, but he still remembers the defeat of 19371February 13. At that time, he was the acting company commander of the small artillery company. It was already dark when he led the team to retreat. He ran from the emergency exit and the Peace Gate to Shimonoseki City Wall, and a white sign "Beware of mines" appeared on the road. The small artillery company had mules, horses and guns, and walked for four hours in two hours. When we arrived at Shimonoseki, it was already the early morning of 12.
The pier is in chaos. Thousands of people are waiting to cross the river there, but there is not a boat in front of them, and even a board is hard to find. Some soldiers cut the chain on the barge and tried to cross the Yangtze River with a floating dock! Yan Kaiyun saw this chaotic scene and immediately ordered the gun to be pushed into the river. Hearing the heavy guns, some soldiers shed tears. These German-made Suluotong cannons once fought fiercely with them in Shanghai to defend Nanjing. Yan Kaiyun said to everyone: "Now, we can't leave our weapons to the enemy!"
After the cannons were pushed into the Yangtze River, mules and horses also released them. When we got together again, everyone dispersed, leaving only more than 30 people in the company. Yan Kaiyun, a graduate of Huangpu 10, was so anxious and angry that he had to swim down the river with these stragglers. More and more people, including soldiers and civilians, are still in chaos. When we reached the new river, it was almost dawn. Gunshots rang out ahead, and the people who retired said, "The road to Wuhu was blocked by the Japanese!" " "
"fight!" Someone shouted angrily. An officer shouted, "Brothers, fight! We are cornered! " "Fight, you can't be a prisoner!" Someone in the crowd shouted again.
The chaotic team immediately charged the enemy like a flood. The small artillery company squad leader pulled out a pistol, the artillery rifle was bayonet, the enemy's light and heavy machine guns roared together, and many people fell!
The soldiers who rushed to the front line caught a devil. When they were taken to the back, they were punched and kicked, stabbed and bitten with their teeth.
Yan Kaiyun has only four soldiers around him. He took them along the low-lying river and tried to cross the river at Sancha River.
On the depression, a badly injured officer lay and groaned for a while. Seeing someone coming, he grabbed Yan Kaiyun's skirt and begged, "Work hard and give me an injection so as not to suffer." A man named Dai Xun raised his pistol to fight. Yan Kaiyun gave Dai Xun a hard look. He lied to the wounded and said, "There is a stretcher behind. Wait a minute, we will rush forward. "
There are many people along the Jiajiang River in Sancha River, and there is nothing that can be used as swimming equipment. Later, a soldier with a rifle rode a buffalo down the river, walked five or six meters ahead, and the cow turned back. He lashed the branch violently, and the cow arched several times. Soldiers riding cows floated away with the river. Yan Kaiyun and the four of them found four dung buckets, took off their leggings and turned them upside down to form a raft. Four people were floating in the river with dung buckets.
Suddenly, there was a sharp whistle from far and near, and several enemy planes circled and strafed the river, and hail splashed around four dung buckets. At this critical moment, a middle-aged man in his forties rowed a boat from the north shore, and he saved four officers and men of a small artillery company from danger. When Yan Kaiyun set foot on the land in Jiangbei, it was already the night of 13.
Qiu Weida, the head of the 306th Regiment, lost confidence and hope in life after being injured on the Zhonghua Gate Tower and carried to Shimonoseki, just like the seriously injured officers during the Great Depression. Lying on a stretcher, he laboriously said to the adjutant, "Why did you carry me here? I would rather die than be a prisoner of the enemy! " He took out all the money around him. "Take it and go. It works well on the road. Leave me alone! "
Adjutants and soldiers carrying stretchers are unwilling to leave, and some say, "Colonel, we will die together!" " "
"Well, since I can't wait to die, let's find something to cross the river." Qiu Weida said.
The two groups parted ways. Amid shouts, there was a sudden burst of "Where is Qiu, head of the 51st Division?" Shouts, Qiu Weida spirit a flap, immediately call a person to look for the river.
The sound came from the direction of the coal port. There is a small steamboat 2 10 feet offshore. I learned that Colonel Qiu was lying on the stretcher. An adjutant on board said, "I was sent by Mr. Wang to meet you!" " "It turned out that when Wang, the teacher of the 51st Division, crossed the river, the Minister of Communications asked," Who else didn't cross the river? Wang Dao said, "Qiu is still behind, and he is badly hurt. "。 "Give the boat to the king.
Before the ship landed, many people jumped into the river and swam to it. Some immediately sank, and some were washed away by the river. Those who climbed on the side of the boat almost overturned it. The sailors were afraid to go ashore, so they tied Qiu Weida's waist with a rope and dragged him aboard like a rope.
Qiu Weida fainted again. An officer on board took out a bottle of Yunnan Baiyao and handed it to the adjutant. "I woke up when I fell down."
Colonel Qiu woke up and realized that the officer who gave Baiyao was a senior staff officer of the General Command, so he was incompetent. The two men talked about defeat: "Where is the Commander-in-Chief? Why have you been unable to contact? "
"Frankly speaking, he said that Commander Tang shouldered this heavy responsibility, and he was not prepared at all. He rushed into battle, and even the command systems and stations of various units were unclear. "
"How many orders did your headquarters give to the garrison and how many times did you notify it?"
"This is the chief of staff. I don't care. "
"Began to shout' swear to Nanjing * * *', why do you order to retreat now?"
"Anyone can shout slogans, and it is even harder to really do it."
"Since we are ready to retreat, why not prepare a boat to cross the river?"
"At a meeting about a ship, a military strategist suggested doing what Sun Tzu said: kill it and regenerate it later. In the last battle, we can' live and die with Nanjing'. Therefore, Commander Tang ordered: troops are not allowed to leave the city, and ships are not allowed to stay on the south bank, saying that it is to defend the city and win. This is not, we are not a victory? The failure of victory! "
"Thank you for general advice. Goodbye! "
The whistle whistled a few times, and the ship was about to dock. Colonel Qiu's wound was even more painful.
Sheathed saber
/kloc-early in the morning on October 3rd, Xu Jiqing, a car driver hiding in a safe place, heard the rumbling noise outside and went out to probe around. At first glance, it's amazing! Tanks came one after another on the road, Japanese soldiers on ocean horses were holding bloody long knives, and devils with guns were knocking at the door. The words "XX troops" and "XX troops" are written in chalk on the door.
As he watched all this in horror, two shots were fired and two China people fell at the gate of the Overseas Chinese Hostel. Xu Jiqing hurriedly retracted his head.
Liu Xiurong didn't dare to come out. Hearing the gunshots outside, he curled up on the bed and covered his head with a quilt. He is only 16 years old, and he is afraid.
The door was knocked open. Several bearded Japanese soldiers poked at the quilt with sharp bayonets. Liu Xiurong was stabbed twice in the abdomen and screamed with pain. My brother heard his brother's cry, ran over and blocked him with his body, stabbed him with three or four bayonets and killed him. My brother passed away.
Facing the bright bayonet, 45-year-old Han Laoliu was frightened. The two sons who advocated it were beheaded, and a newly married 20-year-old son was stabbed and screamed. Han Laoliu rushed frantically to save his son. Several ferocious Japanese soldiers stabbed Xiao Bin three times in the stomach, threw North Korea's old six into the well, and smashed two big stones!
1February 13 was the first day when the Japanese army swept Nanjing. Gunfire is still ringing in the east and north of the city, and some defeated Kuomintang defenders are still resisting. On the streets of the city, the defeated soldiers left many uniforms, guns, backpacks, bayonets and cannons. The sun flag has been flying on the wall of Nanjing, and the victorious imperial army carried forward its Wuwei and chased the people of China like rabbits.
At eleven o'clock in the morning, a team of Japanese troops rushed into the safe zone managed by foreigners. Fei Wusheng, a tall American professor, and two other blond foreign members came running to meet him with comforting words. And a little reward. Their faces changed as soon as they went out. A group of China refugees ran away as soon as they saw the Japanese army. The bullets were fired, and twenty innocent people in China fell. Vides, a 50-year-old sociology doctor, asked the murderer in surprise. The Japanese army's answer was "because they ran away."
In fact, running and not running are the same result. A group of refugees hiding in the pomegranate garden of Yongqing Temple were killed 46 times without moving. More than 500 disarmed officers and men in China were taken to court and burned by machine guns. Refugees tied by ropes can't escape, but they can't escape the fate of being killed one by one. 1February 13, Liu Rouyuan, a senior member of the Military Commission of the National Government, was on his way to take refuge in the refugee area. He saw 1000 people being guarded by the Japanese army, their arms tied together by ropes, and suits and robes mopping the floor. Some are bald and barefoot, some are wearing bud clothes and hats, and some are boys of thirteen or fourteen.
Suddenly, the machine gun slammed, the bullet hit the human body and immediately caught fire. The victim rolled on the ground and shouted.
There are more cruel things. A corporal and a stormtrooper of the Japanese army were killed by China's army in the fierce battle near the cotton embankment of the Yangtze River. 1February 13, the Japanese pulled thirteen people out of the cave and knelt in front of the tomb. They cut off thirteen bloody heads one by one with oriental knives and put them in front of wooden tombstones. There are two bunches of yellow wild chrysanthemums beside the red head. This was provided by the witness Zhong Shilai when I went to Miandian for an interview.
From this day on, there was no light in Nanjing. The workers in Shimonoseki Power Plant are hiding. Although a rising sun rose on the roof of the Japanese Embassy in China, Fukuda and Ma Hao, two foreign civil servants, had to celebrate their victory by candlelight at night. Ambassador Okazaki Kzuo and Consul General Fukui opened cans and caps and raised their glasses to congratulate Harada Xiong Ji, Chang Yong and Sasaki Daiichi.
"Today, my detachment fired fifteen thousand bullets, and together with the prisoners killed by armored vehicles and captured by various units, * * * wiped out more than twenty thousand enemy troops!" Sasaki, head of the brigade, said.
A burst of laughter.
The candle flickered like a jack-o'-lantern.
That night, the Japanese archipelago was also drunk. The news that the imperial army occupied Nanjing aroused the carnival of Yamato people, and lantern parades were held all over the country. Thousands of people in Tokyo flocked to the palace and shouted "Long live".
Ten thousand "suns" rose in the night sky in Japan. Misappropriation is a psychological desire.
Nanjing is crying in the sun.
