A reporter accompanying the army witnessed with his own eyes the Chinese uniforms lined up along the river after being brought to Xiaguan.
"The first row was beheaded first, and the people in the second row were forced to throw the headless corpses into the river, and then their own heads fell to the ground. The massacre lasted from morning to night, but the Japanese army only killed 2,000 people in this way.
People. The next day, they were tired of this way of killing, so they set up machine guns. Two of the machine guns fired at the prisoners of war lined up with cross fire. "Bang, bang, bang" the trigger was pulled, and the prisoners jumped.
They entered the Yangtze River to escape, but no one could successfully swim to the other side."
The Japanese will eventually pay the price for their atrocities.
In the next few days, a piece of news related to Jinling caused an uproar in the outside world.
After the Japanese army entered Jinling, they did not strictly abide by international conventions, but carried out a large-scale massacre of unarmed people in the city. They raped women in any place, regardless of age.
They would gather people together and shoot and kill them with machine guns.
Incidents related to the atrocities committed by the Japanese army were made public by this group of students who escaped from Jinling.
Everyone only knew that the Japanese army blocked Jinling City, but they did not know what happened in Jinling City.
Everyone naively believed that the Japanese army would abide by international conventions and only occupy Jinling, instead of attacking unarmed people. They underestimated the cruelty of the Japanese army.
After breaking through the gate of Jinling City on the 13th, some troops were ordered to kill all the prisoners.
Some Japanese officers even started brutal and inhumane killing contests.
As for treacherous women, everyone from low-level Japanese soldiers to Hisao Tani, the commander of the 6th Division, were also involved in 20 rape cases.
The entire Jinling has become a hell on earth.
People outside were unaware of this.
When this news was published in newspapers, it immediately caused an uproar in the country.
Soon, it attracted the attention of the Western media, and then the Japanese army came out to clarify that what happened in Jinling City as reported in the newspaper was completely fabricated and fabricated. The Japanese army entered Jinling and did not massacre civilians.
But at this time, Jinling had been sealed off, and it is still unknown whether any inhumane massacre occurred in Jinling City.
Even the article records that the last lone resistance force was regarded by the Japanese army as a violation of international conventions.
After the Nationalist army surrendered, the Japanese army claimed that they had properly resettled all the prisoners and gave the Chinese prisoners the greatest preferential treatment. However, some people were dissatisfied with this and still resisted. They even questioned the Chiang government about how disobedient their Nationalist troops were.
Of?
Shangfeng clearly issued an order to retreat, but there was still a lone army resisting in Jinling City.
Chiang did not issue any statement.
At the moment, when everyone's eyes are looking at Jinling, Jinling seems to be shrouded in a huge haze. No one knows what is going on inside.
Xia Yuan expected the shamelessness of the Japanese army, but he did not expect it to be so shameless. He did not know the information from the outside world, so he dutifully shouldered the performance of the last lone army.
Whenever night falls, they will transform into ghosts in the night, wandering among the ruins of Jinling City, harvesting wantonly and massacring Japanese soldiers.
They even retaliate in kind. Early the next morning, when a Japanese squadron arrived at the location of the lost troops, they saw the remains of Japanese soldiers who had been disemboweled and their heads chopped off all over the ground.
Weird, messy symbols drawn with charcoal.
They even found a piece of dried human flesh on a big tree.
This frightened all the Japanese soldiers. Some said it was the devil, while others said it was God's punishment for them. But no matter what, the Japanese army was completely angered and continued to massacre civilians during the day while searching for this weapon.
Lonely.
At the same time, the citizens of Jinling City also knew that there was a national army unit in the city resisting the Japanese army and hunting down the Japanese soldiers.
This is the only news that everyone should be excited about since the Japanese army entered Jinling City and caused a large number of massacres.
In the following days, this lone army fell into the Japanese defense many times, but escaped many times.
And as their reputation in Jinling City grew, more and more Jinling City citizens joined this lone army, and a second and third such lone army appeared.
They imitated this lone army and attacked the Japanese garrison every night. They vented their hatred on the corpses of the Japanese and left at dawn.
When death has numbed them, a lone army on this trip successfully ignited some people's will to resist.
As time goes by, more and more people will resist.
After the Japanese army entered Jinling, they did not suffer too many casualties. However, as the outside world focused on Jinling and the resistance in Jinling gradually increased, the current situation of the Japanese army was also quite difficult.
But they must strictly abide by the orders issued by their superiors.
As a result, under the accumulated emotions of the Japanese army's wanton killings for several days, more and more people resisted, and there was no longer a scene where two or three Japanese soldiers could control thousands of people.
Once resistance arises, it will be out of control.
The Chinese nation itself is a nation that is never willing to fall. They are strong and resilient. Even after a hundred years of humiliation, the motherland will eventually become strong one day.
The Jinling Massacre was inevitable and far more cruel than imagined.
Blood, corpses... it's too horrible to look at.
The last resistance army led by Xia Yuan was also surrounded and suppressed several times by the Japanese army and was gradually wiped out.
Without support or logistics, we had to rely on ourselves to hold on. We couldn't hold on for long, more and more people were killed and injured, and we couldn't get supplies. In the end, the number of people in the team became increasingly scarce.
Snow fell from the sky and fell on my face, making it feel ice cold.
Instructor Li's leg was broken and wrapped in a black bandage. The blood clots and clothes were solidified. He had a sad smile on his face: "After fighting for so long and killing so many Japanese devils, that's enough. At least when I left, there were no
What a pity."
He turned to look at Xia Yuan: "But you are really powerful. You have fought so many battles. If it hadn't been for you, we might have been gone when we had the first conflict with the Japanese army."
Having worked with Xia Yuan for such a long time, Instructor Li looked up to Xia Yuan with admiration. No wonder even the principal took a fancy to him. Such a person should be regarded as the number one commander.
Instructor Li has never seen such strong mental perseverance and fighting spirit, as well as strong individual combat and guerrilla combat capabilities in any officer.
He remembered that when they were encircling and suppressing the Red Bandits, the Red Bandits used this kind of guerrilla warfare to make a fool of the principal's troops.
Xia Yuan smoked a cigarette and said calmly: "What are you talking about that is depressing? It has only been so long, and we will continue to fight against the Japanese devils."
He glanced at the people around him, and there were still No. 7 or 8 people with injuries on their bodies.
Even he couldn't avoid being injured and was bitten by a Japanese bullet. Fortunately, the location of the injury was not a vital part, and with his strong physique, a gunshot wound of this degree was nothing.
They have been in Jinling for half a month now. During this half month, the Japanese army has not stopped invading Jinling for a moment.
They would also transform into ghosts in the night, go deep into the Japanese army's garrison, and eliminate as many effective Japanese forces as possible.
Today, the number of Japanese soldiers who have died under their hands has reached a thousand.
But it's far from enough, far from enough.
Three hundred and fifty thousand people died in Jinling, but this number is not accurate.
In addition, during the Anti-Japanese War, the Japanese army caused many tragedies, and killing all the Japanese was not enough.
Xia Yuan stood up from the ground, looked up at the sky, and said with a smile: "It's snowing."
"Continue tonight, as long as I can still move, I will kill the Japanese." Instructor Li struggled to stand up, "Brothers, get up, it's getting dark, it's time for us to take action."
In the church, a dozen Qinhuaihe women looked at them, while Hongling smoked a cigarette: "These soldiers are leaving again. What should we do? We shouldn't have believed his words in the first place. The foreigners left us here.
It makes us on tenterhooks every day, the Japanese have come several times, and the church has been torn apart by the Japanese."
If the entrance to the cellar hadn't been hidden, the Japanese might have discovered it the first time.
Later, when the heat in Japan came over, I opened the door and saw the empty church. I lost the desire to continue searching and simply walked around for a while before leaving.
But there is no guarantee that every Japanese search team will be so fooled.
This group of women also thought about many ways to escape, but after much thinking, they could not escape by any method. The Japanese army had tightly guarded Jinling City. Even foreigners could only leave Jinling City with a pass. Like Jinling
For the aborigines of the city, even if you hold a pass, you may be beaten to death by the Japanese.
The only foreigner who could take them away with the pass had already left Jinling. Who knows if he would ever return to this place.
They have been waiting for so long, and there is a high probability that they will not come back.
Right now, their only hope is these soldiers.
As long as they don't die, there is still hope.
Once these soldiers die, there will only be a dozen of them women left in this area, and they will definitely not be able to get out alive.
As night falls, the falling snowflakes fall on the devastated land, covering the deceased with a layer of white.
Seven or eight figures were quickly approaching the Japanese military station.
After several night attacks, the Japanese army's security posts were significantly strengthened, but this could not trouble Xia Yuan.
There are loopholes in any defense, and there is no perfect defense in the world.
Xia Yuan relied on his powerful night vision and careful thinking to quickly find the loophole of the Japanese hidden sentry. To successfully pass through under the nose of the Japanese hidden sentry, he needed a very strong psychological quality.
These people already have it.
Because they were discovered to be greeted by death, but they had already seen through death, so why should they be nervous?
Everyone was injured, but when it came time to take action, there was no trace of ink at all. Following Xia Yuan's footsteps, they passed through the gap blocked by the Japanese army and successfully arrived at the Japanese army station.
There are numerous camps, parked trucks, neatly arranged guns, and patrolling troops.
It is no different from the garrison that was attacked in the past. The Japanese army has its own set of rules for setting up the garrison. What should be placed in which place? After they attack a few times, they will be able to figure it out.
Therefore, everyone easily found the tent where the medical supplies were placed. There were relatively few medical supplies, and most of them were sealed in boxes.
Xia Yuan held the bayonet, opened the box, and looked at the dazzling array of medicines. "The Japanese army's logistical support capabilities are really incredible."
After occupying Jinling, they also blocked the coast of the Yangtze River. A large number of warships and merchant ships were moored at Xiaguan Wharf. The Japanese army was able to deliver supplies needed by the frontline combat troops through waterways, which was obviously not needed recently.
After occupying Jinling, the Japanese army's supplies were replenished. They plundered a large amount of food and medicine to replenish their military supplies.
Coupled with the fact that the Chinese army fled and there was no war, the current Japanese army's logistics supplies can be said to be quite sufficient.
This can be seen from the medical supplies in this camp.
A large amount of analgesics, anti-inflammatory drugs, bandages, alcohol, iodine, etc. were labeled and were not transported from the Japanese army's logistics.
"These are painkillers and anti-inflammatory drugs. Bring more." Xia Yuan took out a large number of medicines from the box, placed them on the ground, and said to everyone: "We will replace the medicines for everyone after the night attack is over.
"
Since they had no logistical support, they were unable to receive timely treatment after being injured. Many of the injured died because their injuries were too severe and they could not receive timely treatment.
Therefore, Xia Yuan's first stop in the following night raids was to search for Japanese medical supplies.
But it's not impossible to find it every time.
The Japanese army rarely brings medical supplies to the front line. Now these sealed medicines will definitely not be sent to the front line.
During the Songhu Battle, the Japanese military's medical care was also under tremendous pressure, and it was obviously impossible to send logistical medical supplies directly to the front line.
So these medical supplies were most likely collected by the Japanese army in Jinling, sealed and processed before being sent to the field hospital in the rear.
Sure enough, the labels on some bottles and jars were torn open, revealing traditional Chinese characters.
"Grandma's, isn't this our medicine?" Instructor Li raised his head and looked at Xia Yuan in shock, "Did they rob it?"
Xia Yuan nodded without saying a word, stuffing all the bottles and jars on his body.
Everyone remained silent and stuffed as many medicines as possible into their bodies.
Then, the night attack began.
The first thing they wanted to blow up was the camp where the Japanese soldiers stored their ammunition. This was very simple. They didn't attack the Japanese military garrison once or twice. They just threw a bunch of grenades at them from a long distance, and then ran away.
The retreat route has already been mapped out when taking action.
After hearing the explosion, the Japanese troops would gather towards the explosion site, and the gap between this gathering was the best time for them to retreat.
At the moment, the Japanese military station was in chaos, with shouts in Japanese everywhere. Xia Yuan asked the people with limited mobility to take their things and leave first, while he took three people with quick legs and feet to blow up the Japanese soldiers' medicine.
The location was already known. Wearing Japanese military uniforms, they blended into the Japanese army. As the Japanese army ran towards the explosion site, Xia Yuan shouted while running: "We found the Chinese people, they are at the medicine."
As expected, the Japanese were fooled and quickly ran towards the camp where medical supplies were stored.
Xia Yuan saw the opportunity and threw the cluster grenade.
With a huge roar, the medical camp was blown down, and even the Japanese soldiers were partially injured.
