Rebirth Enchanted Xiangjiang

Chapter 1124 Forgetting Is The Biggest Crime

"Rebirth and Enchanted Xiangjiang ()"

"Why does the world know that the Romans massacred 150,000 people in Carthage? Know that the Catholic army slaughtered 100,000 prisoners in the Spanish religious court, and Timur executed 100,000 prisoners in Delhi and built them in Syria with the skulls of these prisoners? The two bone towers, I also know that Germany* carried out the massacre of Jews during World War II. I know that the Soviets suffered countless deaths and injuries in the Great Patriotic War. There are also Poles and Gypsies. But why are they far more cruel than the Nanjing Massacre in the world? But almost no one remembers?"

Lin Qingxia talked about her confusion. She had been to many countries, but she had never heard foreigners talk about the Nanjing Massacre, and had never read any book that recorded even one word about the Nanjing Massacre.

As Qiao Feng said, it seems that the whole world has forgotten the catastrophe that once happened in Nanjing.

But how could this happen?

This is not a normal thing at all.

Because the number of victims in the Nanjing Massacre alone exceeded the total number of civilian casualties in some European countries during the entire Second World War.

Even in the case of Britain and France, the total number of civilian casualties in the two European powers and two countries is only half of the number of victims in the Nanjing Massacre.

Such a human tragedy, where hundreds of thousands of people have been brutally massacred, would normally cause a sensation in the world and shock the world in any country.

But the truth is so incredible.

The Japanese atrocities in Nanjing are so little known in the world.

Unlike Japan’s atomic bomb attack and the massacre of Jews in Europe, people outside of Asia hardly knew the Nanjing Massacre, let alone the cruelty and horror of the massacre.

why?

Lin Qingxia didn't understand.

Qiao Feng didn't understand it before.

If you were not prepared to shoot the 13 Jinling hairpins, Qiao Feng would not be able to answer Lin Qingxia's question.

However, now Qiao Feng can combine his previous investigations and data with analysis to give some of his own opinions.

If the Japanese are deliberately erasing all traces of the Nanjing Massacre, then European and American countries are deliberately forgetting the Nanjing Massacre.

Most historical documents published in the United States ignore this historical event. There are only a few history textbooks in American high schools that briefly mention the Nanjing Massacre.

Among the complete and authoritative editions of the historical works on World War II released to the American public, there is hardly a single book detailing the Nanjing Massacre.

For example, the American Traditional Photographic History: World War II. This is the best-selling single-volume photo history book of World War II in the United States for many years. Not only does it not contain a picture of the Nanjing Massacre, it does not even mention the incident itself. .

Whether it is Churchill's 1065-page memoirs of World War II, or Henry Michel's 947-page classic of World War II, there is nothing to say about the Nanjing Massacre.

In Gerhart Weinberg's 1178-page magnum opus The World in War, there are only two mentions of the Nanjing Massacre.

This made Spielberg, who had consulted a lot of information for the filming of Jinling Thirteen Hairpins, found the same puzzle.

He searched through European and American information about World War II, and found the real and specific statement about the Nanjing Massacre in Robert Lecky's 998-page book Freedom from Evil: The Legend of World War II, but there is only one sentence: "Compared with the Japanese soldiers under the leadership of Matsui Ishine, any ugly deeds done under Hitler's leadership that humiliated his victory paled in comparison.

Why do too many people in the world know about the Nanjing Massacre?

Why didn't even the academic circles pay enough attention to the Nanjing Massacre?

Is it because the victim has remained silent?

Yes, of course there are such factors.

Of course it’s because of the victims of the Nanjing Massacre. The survivors did not slaughter them like the Jews and were bombed by the atomic bomb.

But it is more because of the political manipulation of European and American countries.

Victims of the Nanjing Massacre, have survivors spoke out loudly?

There must be.

However, under the struggle of all parties, no one heard their call sign, or no one cared about it, and even deliberately concealed it and ignored it.

"The fact that the Nanjing Massacre was ignored by the world can be traced back to the end of World War II when I surrendered." Qiao Feng explained to Lin Qingxia.

"The Second World War is over?" Lin Qingxia was surprised.

"Yes." Qiao Feng nodded and said, "You know that the United States now has troops stationed in Japan. But did you know that China should have stationed troops in Japan."

"China stationed troops in Japan?" Lin Qingxia was even more surprised. Can China ever station troops in Japan? She has never heard her father mention this.

"You heard it right, it was stationed in Japan. As a victorious country, China should have sent troops to Japan like the United States. Even the National Government at that time had already sent advance troops to Japan. But, later for During the civil war, Chang Kaishen actually transferred a telegram from the advance troops back to China, and sent an elite reorganizer that was originally planned to be stationed in Japan to the civil war battlefield. "Speaking of which, Qiao Feng couldn't help cursing: "What a country really is. , The sinner of the nation."

After scolding Qiao Feng, he said with anger: "It is precisely because there was no Japanese stationed in Japan back then, so now I can blatantly deny the Nanjing Massacre and even the war of aggression against China, and even worse, I can reverse the black and white of Japan Said as a victim. If this is the garrison in the past, how can these things happen."

Failing to garrison in Japan, Chang Kaishen was too big.

As for the exemption of Japan’s war reparations... Hey, this is not to be said.

Anyway, the above has its own considerations.

Japan can't afford to pay for it, or to build its own image as a big country, anyway, our leaders are wise and farsighted.

This indemnity should be fine.

"Yes, if China wants to station troops in Japan like the United States, Japan will definitely not dare to reverse black and white, and it will not be possible that right-wing forces are rampant as they are now. I remember there was a report last year that the mayor of Nagasaki City was being attacked by right-wing forces. She was shot and almost killed. "Lin Qingxia was very concerned and gave an example.

"Yes." Qiao Feng also read this news. He still remembered that the mayor of Nagasaki was called Honjima.

Why was this island shot?

It was because he once stated that the Showa Emperor should be responsible for the Second World War, and then angered the right-wingers in Japan.

It can be seen from this that in Japan, if you publicly express your true views on the Sino-Japanese War, you will threaten your own security.

This threat has existed since the end of World War II, and it will continue to exist in the future.

"The atmosphere of terror in Japan has suppressed free and open academic discussions on the Nanjing Massacre, and has further hindered the world’s understanding of the truth. You say, the Japanese don’t admit it, and we don’t say it, so who can remember? Do they rely on Europe and the United States for the victims who lived in the Nanjing Massacre? They all hope to rely on Japan to contain us. How could they touch Japan’s sensitive nerves."
