History has its own life, it is like a person, both easy-going and self-respecting. ——Yu Qiuyu
History is not used to promote hatred, but in order to create a harmonious and friendly atmosphere, we cannot reject the history that really happened and changed our society and people's livelihood.
During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, shanxi province had a special and tragic history, in the 8 years of the all-out War of Resistance, Shanxi Province was fighting every year, and the suffering of the common people was difficult to express in words, at the same time, in the stronghold set up by the Japanese Kou, a scene of human tragedy was staged, such as comfort women, and those terrible tortures...
In the spring of 1940, more than 100 members of the Japanese Army's Nishida army invaded and occupied the village of Hanchuan in Changzhi, where the Japanese Kou built fortifications and fortifications. The Hanchuan stronghold was the first line of defense of the Japanese Kou south of the county seat of Changzhi County, with prisons and water prisons. The variety of torture devices and the viciousness of the use of torture are heinous, and the following are the 8 types of torture recorded in the historical data.
First, target people. In July 1943, rikou captured Qin Xijiu and 25 other civilians to the stronghold and threw them into the water prison. The next day they were brought up for interrogation in turn, beaten to the point of scales, and then tied together with straw ropes, led by a soldier to the execution ground, ordered to lie flat on the ground in a row, and then let the new soldiers stand at a certain distance, set up machine guns to shoot, and target the living.
After 20 minutes of inspection, it was found that he was not dead and ordered the soldiers to slash with a large knife. Among them, Qin Xijiu was pierced by a machine gun bullet through two holes in his leg, and blood flowed all over the ground. When Riko found out that he was still alive, he slashed at his shoulder with a foreign knife and cut a large piece along the way, and he passed out. Rikou pushed the dead into the deep ditch one by one. The next day, Qin Xijiu slowly woke up, and when his family went to steal the body, he quietly carried him back, but fortunately he was not killed. The rest of the victims died tragically in the deep valley.
Second, catapult down the pool. In 1943, the Japanese Kou and Japanese puppet traitor plainclothes teams occupying Hanchuan's strongholds discovered that the original supplementary on the tomb of the Eight Provinces was the village chief and guerrilla leader of the Eighth Route Army, so they secretly went to the Eight Provinces Tomb to arrest the original supplementary complete, but they pounced. Rikou grabbed Hara's brother Hara and asked about his brother's whereabouts along the way. Walking to the edge of the large pond outside the village, Riko threw the air into the pool, and in order not to let him climb up, he also filled the pool with large stones.
Third, wrestling left and right. Qin Songlian, the younger brother of Qin Xijiu in Hanchuan Village, was originally doing business in Hebei and had an affair to visit his family, and on his way back to Hebei from home again, he was suddenly discovered by the manager of the "Xingzhong Coal Mining Company" of the Japanese Kou and arrested back to the village. During the interrogation, the Japanese Kou insisted that Matsuri was a secret agent, and several Japanese Hercules were beaten left and right, and the seven tricks of Matsuri were bled to death.
Fourth, the wolfhound bites. Rikou feeds more than 20 wolfhounds at the Hanchuan stronghold. Whenever interrogation Chinese, the wolfhound was instigated to tear and bite the tortured person tied to the stake. Farmers Ma Wang and Guo Qirong were arrested and imprisoned in a water prison on charges of adultery. During the interrogation, he was bitten by a wolfhound and was bloodied and unconscious. After interceding with friends and family members, they were redeemed with heavy money, and soon both died.
Fifth, iron is burned. In the winter of 1942, nishida troops who had occupied Hanchuan set out to sweep the Area around Xichi. The people have heard that the news has been transferred out, and there is no one in the village. Riko searched for a day and only caught an old lady in her 60s. Rikou tied it up with iron wire, then burned the red iron pillar of fire on his face and under his body, and finally threw the dying old lady into the fire and burned her to death.
Sixth, cut the abdomen and dig the heart. In the autumn of 1943, Xitian's troops in Hanchuan captured three peasants in Songbi Village, tied one of them to a wooden pillar, and ordered a Japanese soldier to cut his abdomen on the spot with a bayonet, until he had dug out all his internal organs one by one, and then plucked out a bloody heart. The victims had long since died of exhaustion.
Seventh, trapped in a water prison. After the Japanese invaded Hanchuan, they built a water prison next to the bunker. The depth of the water prison is more than two inches, less than a house with a large water depth of more than the chest. Those who are imprisoned in the water do not let go of the wind, the second does not provide food, blisters, starvation, air blockage, and soon starvation and death.
Eight, the knife stabbed in the chest. Once, the Japanese Kou stripped Chen Tianyou and more than 20 other civilians who had been captured, stripped off their clothes one by one, tied them to wooden stakes, and let the heavily armed Japanese soldiers hold bayonet rifles in their hands and sprint at their chests to see who could stab accurately and fiercely.
Of course, in addition to the above-mentioned eight kinds of torture, the Japanese Kou who occupied the Hanchuan stronghold also had the names of "filial piety with hemp belts", "burning noodles with cigarette butts", "filling pepper water", "kneeling iron nails", and "frozen popsicles", and so on.
The road of history is full of twists and turns, and there is a lesson: "Conscientious and strong, the wind is the death"; "the prosperity is not sluggish, and strive to be strong". Only by keeping history in mind, taking history as a mirror, and being brave after knowing shame can we make our motherland prosperous and forever stand tall in the east of the world!
