Since the Japanese army captured Jinling City, every time night fell, some teams lost contact. When they were found, all members of the team were killed by the enemy.
After that, the Japanese army focused on conducting carpet searches of residential houses in Jinling City and areas where cellars might exist, and found many people hiding in cellars.
However, every night, a large number of Japanese soldiers were still brutally killed. Even if they strengthened their night defense, it was of no avail.
No one could see clearly who the perpetrator was, because no one in the attacked troops was spared.
The perpetrator was very purposeful and vindictive. He specifically targeted Japanese soldiers in squad units. After killing the Japanese soldiers, he cut off their heads, placed them on the ground, and stuffed raw materials into their mouths.
limbs, or cigarettes.
The Japanese soldiers who saw this scene were all furious.
But if you think about it carefully, isn't this what they did to the people in Jinling City? They once cut off the heads of the people in Jinling City, stuffed lit cigarettes or organs into their mouths, and placed their heads on
On top of the roadblock for fun.
The prisoners were even made to line up in a row, kneel on the ground, and be beheaded by Japanese officers.
This person's deeds are completely targeted revenge.
When the news reached the ears of the Japanese division commander, he was furious and dispatched a regiment of about 2,000 Japanese soldiers to station near Zhongshan Road, and strengthened patrols in various streets, the layout of checkpoints, etc.
I thought that this was so seamless that the perpetrators would not dare to enter the vicinity of Zhongshan Road again and attack Japanese soldiers.
However, the Japanese army still underestimated the perpetrator's energy.
That night, the Japanese army camp was bombed, the stored materials were blown up, and the fuel and trucks were burned in the fire.
The Japanese army's wing headquarters was brutally slaughtered. Fortunately, the wing commanders held a meeting in the division, but several squadron leaders suffered a disaster. Their throats were cut with a knife, and their heads were placed on the table of the headquarters. The map was soaked with blood. The radio station in the headquarters was blocked.
It was smashed and important documents were looted, many of which were powerful evidence about the Jinling Massacre.
These certificates were found from foreigners, and most of them were photos. These items were sealed in boxes and planned to be shipped back to the country.
Unexpectedly, all the photos were lost.
In addition, it was the loss of the regiment. I don’t know what method the perpetrators used. The Japanese soldiers fought, causing more than 40 casualties and more than 70 injuries. Half of the regiment’s living supplies were destroyed, and the storage
The ammunition was destroyed, and most of the fuel and trucks were destroyed.
The losses were heavy.
The consequences are immeasurable.
The commander of the Japanese 11th Division, Sotake Yamamuro, was furious at the division headquarters and ordered that the perpetrators must be found.
The night is vast.
Chen Wenhua and Ali were lying in the ruins, listening to the lively Japanese army camp, and they were very happy.
Ali clenched his fists: "It exploded so beautifully, just like the fireworks set off during the New Year."
Chen Wenhua said with a smile: "Listen, there are still screams of Japanese soldiers."
A man ran up from a distance, carrying a big box and a small box. Chen Wenhua and Ali hurriedly went to greet him: "Xia Yuan, you are really relieved. The Japanese army's station was just stolen by us."
"You guys take the box and leave quickly." Xia Yuan didn't take a breath, put the box on the ground, and said solemnly to the two of them: "In this box, there is important evidence that the Japanese devils created the Jinling Massacre. It must be
Keep it well and don’t throw it away.”
When the two of them heard this, they stopped smiling.
During the period of hiding in the cellar, Xia Yuan told them too many things. Among them, after the Japanese invaders caused the Jinling Massacre, they would inevitably destroy the evidence of the Jinling Massacre. Just relying on oral narration would not work.
Photos and video materials must be used as important evidence.
These days, they were unable to prevent the tragedy that occurred in Jinling City, but they were determined to find evidence. They did not hesitate to get close to Zhongshan Road and the folk arts where foreigners lived, just to find something that could be used for filming.
"This small box is a tool for photography. Be careful on the road. If you encounter Japanese devils, hide. Make sure you arrive at the church safely."
Xia Yuan did not forget to warn the two of them.
"What about you, what are you going to do?" Chen Wenhua asked, "Come with us."
"There are still a lot of documents that I didn't bring with me. I have to go back and take them with me."
Xia Yuan said quietly.
Many of these documents were secret documents issued by the Japanese army to deal with all prisoners. Many documents were not destroyed, but were stored. If these documents were taken back by the Japanese, they would definitely be destroyed by the Japanese.
After the Japanese surrendered in 1945, Japan began to destroy all evidence of crimes committed on Chinese soil, including 731.
However, it seems that the documents of 731 were not destroyed, but were received by the US military. Since then, there have been scenes of the US military using bacterial weapons against the volunteers during the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea.
Files cannot be lost.
The evidence cannot be lost.
Xia Yuan did not expect that this Japanese army would actually keep so many documents. These documents should be said to be at the Japanese army's division headquarters and then transported back to the country.
He estimated that these should have been recently searched by the Japanese army near the foreigner's station, including video cameras and cameras.
Some foreigners tried to take pictures of the crimes committed by the Japanese army, but more foreigners were discovered by the Japanese army and tried to take pictures of the Japanese army massacring civilians. They would also be brutally killed by the Japanese army.
Rabe once risked his life to record, but he recorded very little.
Xia Yuan thought of the safe zone.
Mr. Rabe thinking about this world.
If he really existed, he might, like himself, preserve the evidence that the Japanese army created the Jinling Massacre.
Xia Yuan returned to the Japanese army.
At this time, the Japanese army was in chaos. The chaos deliberately created by Xia Yuan instantly caused more and more Japanese soldiers to panic. He used the night as a disguise, dressed in Japanese clothes, and shot at the Japanese soldiers.
, the living Japanese soldiers will think that the enemy is wearing their clothes.
When two Japanese teams encountered each other, Xia Yuan took the opportunity to shout: "Those are Chinese people! They know our language, don't believe them!"
Then regardless of what happened, he opened fire and killed a Japanese soldier on the other side.
The spirit was already in a tense state, and it was like lighting a fuse.
Xia Yuan has used this method many times and it works every time.
Including blowing up the Japanese gasoline barrels, stored ammunition, etc., creating even greater chaos in the chaos.
The chaotic Japanese army camp was full of swaying figures of Japanese soldiers. Some were putting out fires, some were rescuing the wounded, and some were carrying supplies.
Xia Yuan blended in. Although his height was seriously inconsistent with that of the Japanese soldiers, in the chaos, the Japanese soldiers had no time to care about the height of the soldiers next to them, let alone Xia Yuan.
At the Japanese regiment headquarters, several Japanese squadron leaders had been killed by him. The corpses of the regiment leaders were thrown on the ground, and his heads were chopped off and placed on the table.
The area around the headquarters was already being watched by Japanese soldiers. Xia glanced at it from a distance, then turned and burrowed into the ruins on one side of the Japanese camp. He found the hidden documents among the rocks, put the documents in his arms, and retrieved them from the ruins.
He climbed out, jumped onto the road, and ran towards the church.
He has come here not once or twice, and is quite familiar with the terrain here.
cellar.
Chen Wenhua and Ali arrived first.
They walked and stopped all the way to avoid Japanese reinforcements.
There were no surprises along the way.
Chen Juan and Zhou Xiaoli were studying. The woman was not in a very good condition. She often held a gun and sat on the bed blankly, as if she had not yet come out of the shadows.
Han Yang was still unable to move. He was lying on the bed, looking a little bored, chatting with Chen Juan and Zhou Xiaoli.
Hearing the noise from the outside world, several people suddenly became nervous. Zhou Xiaoli and Chen Juan held their guns and stood ready.
There are grenades next to Han Yang, and he will die with the enemy at any time.
"It's us." Chen Wenhua came in carrying the box, put the box on the ground, and took a breath.
"Dad, what's in here?" Chen Juan put away the gun, looked at the box the two men carried, and asked curiously.
Chen Wenhua opened the box, grabbed the things inside, put aside the useless things, and quickly found three photo albums. When he opened the album, his expression suddenly changed when he saw the contents in the album.
He closed the photo album and said in a deep voice: "These are the key evidence of the massacre caused by the Japanese devils in Jinling. The Japanese devils collect these things everywhere and want to bring them back to the country. In this way, the massacre they caused in Jinling cannot be investigated.
.”
What Xia Yuan said is still vivid in my mind.
Chen Juan asked: "Dad, can I take a look?"
Chen Wenhua said nothing and silently put the photo album away: "Don't look at it."
Ali’s box contained video cameras and cameras, which were quite big. “What kind of thing is this?”
Zhou Xiaoli said in great surprise: "This is a camera. This should be a video camera. Did you take the photo at the Japanese camp?"
Ali scratched his head: "We didn't find this, it was our distant brother who found it."
After a while, Xia Yuan came back. He brought back a cardboard box. The cardboard box contained some important documents from the Japanese army. The documents were sent to the Japanese army detachment, and they were all documents for the disposal of all prisoners.
When Japanese prisoners were tried in later generations, many cases were due to insufficient key evidence.
Now that I have come to this world, while hunting down the Japanese, I have to keep some key evidence of the Jinling Massacre. These evidences will definitely play a key role in the future.
"These documents are important documents issued by the Japanese 11th Division to deal with all prisoners of war. These documents cannot be thrown away, and the photo album must be kept."
Xia Yuan put the things on the ground, opened the box, took a look, and said to several people.
"What I want is to dig a hole in the corner of the cellar and bury these things. In this way, even if we are discovered by the Japanese, they will not be able to find these things." Chen Wenhua said.
"Just follow your suggestion." Xia Yuan nodded.
These things are very important, especially those photo albums. The photos in the albums are all photos of the Japanese army massacring the citizens of Jinling City.
There are also some image data that must be properly preserved.
During the Jinling Massacre, many foreigners filmed or recorded the heinous crimes committed by the Japanese army, but they were all later confiscated by the Japanese army.
At this time, as the Jinling Massacre was exposed, Japan was already involved in a storm of public opinion.
Many anti-Japanese people in China are paying close attention to what is happening in Jinling City.
However, due to the strict blockade by the Japanese army, not much information was revealed in Jinling City. Outsiders mostly learned about what happened in Jinling City from newspapers, and the authenticity of the contents of the newspapers has yet to be verified.
In the face of external public opinion, the Japanese army did not fail to fight back.
There has been a storm of public opinion in China.
The German side was also aware of this matter. Some German diplomats tried to enter Jinling City from the outside, but were blocked by the Japanese army.
The Japanese delayed their return to Jinling in order to prevent any official from witnessing the tragic situation in Jinling City and the various atrocities committed by the Japanese army.
In addition, the Japanese have begun intensive cleanup work in Jinling City, processing, burying, burning corpses, and destroying evidence of large-scale massacres of innocent civilians, women and children.
The United States also knew the fact that Japan was trying to cover up. The Japanese had used a set of mechanical secrets to protect high-level diplomatic messages from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Fortunately, this secret message was deciphered by the U.S. Army's secret expert of Signal Bo Achu and intercepted the Jinling Massacre.
During this period, there were secret communications between Japan's leaders in Tokyo and their representatives in Washington.
Among them was a telegram from Japanese Foreign Minister Hiroki Hirota to Japanese Ambassador to the United States Hiroshi Saito, emphasizing the need to delay the return of U.S. diplomats to Jinling.
The telegram recorded: "If they really want to return to Jinling, get negative reports about the behavior of our military from their own expatriates, and pass these accusations back to their countries, we will be in an extremely disadvantageous position. Therefore, we believe that we will do everything possible to
Working hard to delay their return to Aurous Hill as much as possible is the best strategy. Even if this will arouse their resentment, it is much better than discovering an on-site conflict."
However, the United States did not disclose everything they knew to the public, and even provided help for Japan's press censorship in an attempt to cover up the truth.
For example, Universal's Norman shot 53 reels of 100-foot reels about the bombing of the Panay by Japanese planes. However, before the film was sent to theaters for screening, the United States asked them to delete the content of 30 feet. The edited portion of the film was exactly
Several Japanese bombers were photographed clinging to the deck of the Panay, strafing it.
In addition to the United States helping Japan cover up the truth.
Japan is also trying to use public opinion to guide changes in the direction of the wind, which is also their effective tactic.
Long before the Jinling Massacre, U.S. intelligence agencies had obtained top-secret Japanese propaganda plans in an attempt to carry out propaganda beneficial to Japan in the United States.
This will also lead to the fact that in the future, many young Americans will only know a little bit about the War of Resistance Against Japan, but almost no one will know about the Jinling Massacre.
China's backwardness makes it unable to respond to Japan's public opinion war.
Warlords are fighting in a melee, heroes are separatist, wars continue, and the people are in dire straits.
In addition, there are many factions within the Chiang government, with overt and covert struggles, layers of exploitation and embezzlement, and very little money is actually used in the right place.
The national conditions are still like this, and there is no way to deal with the public opinion created by the Japanese army.
