After the outbreak of the July 7 Incident, the Japanese army invaded China in an all-round way, first occupying Shanghai and then invading Nanjing from the south. The Chinese defenders were unable to resist the Japanese attack, and on December 13, 1937, Nanking fell. Subsequently, the military and civilians in Nanjing spent the most difficult period of time. After the Japanese entered the city, they burned and plundered, and did no evil. When they saw men, they killed men, and when they saw women, young and old, they were taken away. A large number of innocent people were killed by the Japanese, and countless families were torn apart.
According to incomplete statistics, at least 300,000 Chinese tragically killed in the Nanjing Massacre. There were also many, many cases of women being abused, more than 20,000. Some of the women were tortured to death, some committed suicide immediately after being humiliated, and some committed suicide after the Japanese Kou left. The Japanese army was inferior to the beasts, abusing women day and night, and even forcing them to have relations with themselves in front of their families. Among the female victims were old women and little girls in their 10s. Some people may ask, so many women in Nanjing, why didn't they unite to resist the atrocities of the Japanese army? A survivor of the Nanjing Massacre gave the reason.
This person's name is Jiang Genfu, born in 1929, there are 6 children in the family, he is the third oldest. He has two older sisters and three younger brothers. He was 8 years old at the time of the Nanjing Massacre, and his youngest brother was still in his infancy. On the afternoon of the 13th, in order to avoid the pursuit of the Japanese Kou, his father fled to the suburbs with a large family and hid in the reeds of the Huiming River. They did not dare to speak out, for fear that the Japanese would find out.
Older people can control themselves, but babies can't. The sixth brother was hungry and cried for milk. The mother had nothing to eat and no milk at all. Unexpectedly, his brother's cries attracted The Japanese patrolling the river, and they rushed to find Jiang Genfu's family. Riko was tempted to insult his mother, who preferred to die. The mother's resistance annoyed Riko, who snatched the child from her arms and threw her to death. The mother went forward to hold the child and was shot and killed by Riko. By the time Jiang Genfu's father arrived, his mother and younger brother had long since lost their breath. Grief-stricken, he found several wooden planks and nailed them into boxes to house the remains of his wife and young son.
Two days later, his father was taken by Riko as a coolie and never returned. Her parents were gone, and Jiang Genfu's second sister took on the heavy responsibility of taking care of her younger brothers. Soon, the second sister was also discovered by Riko. Riko wanted to bully her, but the second sister resisted and was slapped hard. Then, another Nikko pulled out a long knife from his waist and split her in half. The Nanjing Massacre left Jiang Genfu's family devastated and left him alone as an orphan. He was smashed by Riko, and a rickshaw master saved him before he was able to retrieve a life.
From the narration of the elderly Jiang Genfu, it can be known that his mother and sister were killed because of resisting the humiliation of the Japanese Kou. In the face of the Japanese Kou, women are not without resistance, who wants to be humiliated? It's just that they don't have the strength to bind the chickens, and they are not the opponents of the Japanese at all. Besides, the Japanese are usually not committed by one person, but often several people together, even if a woman can beat a Japanese soldier, her fists cannot defeat four hands. They didn't have guns and other weapons in their hands, so how could they resist the Japanese? In the process of rebellion, many women were killed. So in order to survive, they have to endure all this, after all, there is hope for survival.
