December 13, 1937
The Japanese army brutally invaded Nanjing
The tragic Nanjing Massacre was created
300,000 compatriots were killed
It has left the darkest page in the history of human civilization
Today is the 8th National Day of Worship
Although the smoke of war is gone
The shame of the nation and the death of the people should not be forgotten
We are in the name of the nation
Mourn your fellow citizens and sound the alarm bells
The Nanjing Massacre of the Japanese Army invading China
A corner of the Memorial of the Compatriots Killed
Every 12 seconds a drop of water falls from the sky
Fall into the surface of the black water
Symbolizes that winter in 1937
Every 12 seconds a living being dies
"The peasants and the workers need not say anything about themselves,
Women and children should be killed until they are killed. "
"Men and women, who are alive,
Kill everything, even a cat! "
"Robbery, rape, arson, murder, anything!"
……
This was a series of military orders issued by the Japanese army
On one side are compatriots
Fearful eyes, desperate cries, feeble struggles
On one side are the invaders
Raging laughter, blood-stained butcher knives
The ancient city mourns The mountains and rivers are disgraced
The humiliation of blood written through the dust of 84 years
It deeply stung us today
Compatriots who survived that horrific massacre
Everyone carries the memory of blood and tears
Today, most of them are old or even dead
Only 61 remained
They are still spending the rest of their lives waiting for an apology
"As long as I live for one day,
Just keep talking.
Let more people know about this history and don't forget it.
I hope you will redouble your efforts,
Build our country together. ”
——Liu Minsheng
"Although memories are uncomfortable once,
But still want to come, still want to talk!
I hope for the suffering that has happened to us,
Our children and grandchildren will never experience it again! ”
--Chen Deshou
"Don't forget the past,
The teacher of the past and the future,
We want world peace now, not war. ”
- Li Gaoshan
The Witnesses are withering
But the truth should never sink
No matter where you are
Please remember their instructions
Memories of blood and tears
Can't forget! Unforgettable! Don't dare to forget!
Forge ahead in deep pain, strengthen my China!
