In the Sino-Japanese War, due to the weakness and incompetence of the Qing government, countless officers and men on the Jingyuan and Zhiyuan ships were killed in vain, and later, the Japanese army occupied the Beiyang Marine Division base Lushun and carried out a large-scale massacre of the city. At this time, Lushun was described as a river of blood flowing all over the city. For the atrocities committed by the Japanese army in this city, posterity has not forgotten. Therefore, even though the war has passed for many years, the city still has some special rules for the Japanese, which is enough to see how much crime the Japanese army committed here.
Lushun is located at the southern end of Liaoning, China, bordering the sea from east to west, and is known as the gateway to the Beijing-Tianjin sea and the natural barrier in the northeast. In 1894, after the Qing government withdrew its troops, the Japanese army took the opportunity to launch a crazy attack on the city. Without corresponding protection, Lushun became an isolated city and was allowed to be burned by the Japanese army. At that time, Lushun was only a small city and the population was relatively small, so under the crazy destruction of the Japanese army, the city persisted for 4 days, and it was looted, and all the surviving population in the city was only 36 people!
We may not imagine the scene at that time, but a British journalist once described it: the looted Lushun was full of blood, gunshots, cries of pain, and even an alley blocked by corpses, and the city became a dead city. Looking at historical photos, those brutal Japanese troops also laugh like ordinary people, and if they do not mention these histories, they think that they are also simple soldiers. But, looking at history, we have to admit that they are the thugs who committed heinous crimes in our country.
More than 100 years later, Lushun has regained its vitality, and now the city is getting better and better, and the GDP is rising every year. However, even so, people do not forget history, so the city once did not allow Japanese to enter, but because this practice was slightly extreme, it was later changed to not allow Japanese who did not recognize the history of invasion of China. On the other hand, there are still many people in Japan who are unwilling to admit their atrocities and the history of their invasion of China. It's just that no matter how unwilling they are, it's an undeniable fact, and countless pieces of evidence, countless Chinese will remind them that those atrocities do exist.
In the new century, China has developed rapidly, and both military and economic development has reached a new level. In today's China, with the efforts of countless people, no one dares to fight our ideas. As a Chinese, each of us is proud that we are no longer the targets of bullying, that we are one of the defenders of world peace. As our neighbor, Japan has to acknowledge our strength and to put away their careful thinking.
