Chapter 416: Killing
Hanako died, and the mountain itself wore filial piety clothes and held a grand funeral for Hanako. He wailed like a woman. This bloody war took the lives of his son, daughter and sister one after another. He did not reflect on the roots and nature of this war, and focused all his hatred on the Chinese. He did not think about how many Chinese had lost their right to exist because of this war of aggression. Thousands of families have been destroyed. He does not reflect on the tragic death of hundreds of his Chinese under his butcher's knife.
Today, he escorted all the prisoners to Suzhou Square, a total of more than 1,000 people. He also ordered the arrest of more than 300 Suzhou civilians who had entered the city, a total of 1,329 people. Then he ordered Wang Lin's body to be taken down from the city and hung on a high flagpole in the square. Today, he wants to kill on a large scale, like the Nanjing Massacre, and carry out collective killing. He wanted to continue to carry forward the experience of the Nanjing Massacre in Suzhou. He has no other thinking, his mind is full of killing! He completely trampled on the conscience of humanity and turned into a murderer.
From mid-August to November 15, 1937, the Japanese army dropped more than 4,200 bombs in the urban area of Suzhou, killing and wounding thousands of people. The Pingmen railway station was almost completely bombed. Sanitation trains and refugee vehicles were also blown up. The bodies of adults were blown into small pieces, and the bodies of children were blown into pieces of flesh, and brains and blood were splashed on the walls with pieces of clothing and hair. Like Nanjing, Suzhou has become a sea of corpses and blood.
Inside and outside the city of Suzhou, incendiary bombs dropped by Japanese planes set off fires along Shilu that burned down for seven days and seven nights, destroying 2,300 shops, hotels, theaters, teahouses, bathhouses, and restaurants, as well as 5 or 600 residential houses, and causing thousands of casualties. Soochow University, Suzhou Middle School, Sulun Yarn Factory, etc. were all bombed. The hospital for wounded soldiers was also bombed, and most of the wounded soldiers who stayed in the hospital were killed.
Important villages and towns along the railway line around Suzhou and along the Yangtze River were also bombed by Japanese planes. In early November, four refugee boats were blown up and sunk in Hanoi between Beiqiao and Weitang in Wu County, killing more than 3,000 people.
According to the 1939 Statistical Table of Incident Damage issued by the Puppet Wu County Governor's Office, 7,927 houses were destroyed in 13 townships and towns in the county, and 6,774 residents were killed. According to the evening newspaper of Japan's "Asahi Shimbun" on November 21, 1937, the Japanese army entered Suzhou City and captured 2,000 Chinese soldiers and killed all of them by secret order. According to this estimate, from August 13 to the fall of Suzhou, the Japanese army killed more than 30,000 soldiers and civilians in Suzhou.
The Japanese army invaded Suzhou, the streets and alleys, a sea of fire, Hulong Street, Xianghua Bridgehead, next to the North Temple Tower, as well as Qi, Xiang, Lou, Feng, Pan, Xu, Jin, Chang City Gate Thoroughfare, full of corpses, the city gate is full of human heads. The Japanese army took pleasure in killing. Pidgin Jiao Village and Pidgin Dang Bridge outside Pingmen were shot dead by the Japanese army. The seventy or eighty seriously wounded soldiers who had time to evacuate from the Xu family ancestral hall in Fengmen were all killed. The rape and murder ranged from teenage girls to seventy or eighty-year-old women.
On November 19, 1937, the Japanese army entered the city through Pingmen and Loumen, and Suzhou fell a few days later. The people of Suzhou were immediately massacred, and outside Pingmen, the Japanese army caused the horrific Pidgin Point massacre, massacring thousands of villagers and passing refugees. The Japanese army also set up machine guns on the roof of the warehouse of the Pingmen Railway Station, and fired at people when they saw them, killing countless people. In the Yunjin Public Office, a boarding house near the Pidgin Bridge outside Qimen, the Japanese army shot and killed more than 100 fleeing civilians with machine guns......
Yamamoto is the initiator of the tragedy in Suzhou. His son was also killed by the Suzhou underground guerrillas in this massacre. Now, Yamamoto's own sister is also dead. His daughter was captured by the Japanese army as a comfort woman and tortured to death by the Japanese army. All this Yamamoto kept in the dark. On the thought that his daughter was secretly training at the Japanese spy school. In fact, his daughter is not dead, and she is also in Suzhou, which is a later story. When the Japanese military department informed him, it said that his daughter had been shot dead by the Eighth Route Army. His daughter Michiko is his famous pearl in the palm of her hand, she is very beautiful, and she came to China in response to the call of the Japanese people to join the war. I was taken by a Japanese shadow Osa. Forced Michiko to be his sex slave, Michiko swore to death, and after Shadow raped Michiko, he sent her to a comfort station. At the comfort station, she was subjected to inhuman torture and was dying. Abandoned in the wilderness.
Yamamoto gathered all his hatred on the Eighth Route Army and swore revenge. This time, Yamamoto decided to use a bloody massacre in Suzhou to warn the anti-Japanese forces in Suzhou. At the same time, Zhao Lingzi and Wang Jian were rewarded with heavy money, Zhao Lingzi was captured, 100,000 oceans were rewarded, and Wang Jian was rewarded with 80,000 oceans. Whoever kills two people will be rewarded with 100,000 oceans. Reward notices are plastered all over the streets of Suzhou. All of a sudden, Zhao Lingzi and Wang Jian became household names in Suzhou.
The sky was overcast, and groups of crows chirped in the sky. All the Japanese troops and the Imperial Allied Army in Suzhou City were dispatched. Three steps and one post, five steps and one sentry. In every direction around Suzhou Square, there are extremely lethal heavy machine guns and mountain artillery. As long as someone robs the Dharma field, there will be no water around it. Yamamoto today used a mass massacre to express to Matsui his determination to fight the Chinese to the end.
The Suzhou prison was completely empty, and the prison guards escorted the prisoners and the arrested Suzhou people, insisting that they were the Eighth Route Army.
Hanako's body was placed in front of the square, and behind it stood the ordinary people who had been taken out of prison and who had been arrested. The muzzles of guns surrounded by black holes surrounded the prisoners and civilians, and they immediately opened fire when Yamamoto gave the order. Hanako's body is piled with firewood.
The square was deserted, and there were few Suzhou people who came to watch, but the Japanese army soon forcibly drove the Suzhou residents who were hiding in their houses to the square.
The mountain itself wore white filial piety clothes, and caught more than a dozen He Shang chanting in front of the corpse of Huazi, for a while, on the square, the sound of wooden fish, He Shang chanting the scriptures, echoed over the square for a long timeγγγγγγ
