The thing that can best push the two nationals against each other is a war between the two countries, especially when one side is the aggressor and the other side firmly believes that it is justice, and hatred is most likely to spread between the two nationals. The people of the two sides of the war, as independent individuals, will still have their own feelings although they will have resentment against the enemy country. Many poignant love stories have ended up as tragedies because commoners on both sides of the enemy fell in love, and many similar incidents actually occurred in China in the last century.
Before Japan officially launched the war of aggression against China, there was a Japanese female nurse who had married a Chinese general, and had not returned to Japan for 64 years since her marriage, this female nurse's name was Sato Yaden, and her husband was Jiang Baili, a famous general in China's modern history. It is worth mentioning that one of the daughters of the two is the well-known musician Jiang Ying, and Jiang Ying's husband is Qian Xuesen, a famous scientist who has been famous for thousands of years.
Jiang Baili had gone to Japan to study in his early years, and Japan's advanced military concepts had a huge impact on his traditional three views, and he was eager to absorb new knowledge, and the flame of revolution was quietly ignited at this time. After Returning to China, Jiang Baili became a member of Yuan Shikai's command, and he served as the principal of the Baoding Army Officer School.
Unlike many warlords at that time, Jiang Baili studied and joined the army not for personal achievements, but for the revitalization of China. It is precisely because his ideals are too pure and sacred, he is not accustomed to the darkness of the military and political circles of old China, and while feeling deeply powerless to change, Jiang Baili even made the act of raising a gun and drinking bullets to kill himself, fortunately, he was sent to the hospital in time for treatment.
During the time when Jiang Baili was hospitalized, he met his lifelong love, Sato Yadori. Sato Yadori was a nurse who was ordered to take care of Jiang Baili at that time, and in the process of taking care of Jiang Baili, she often persuaded Jiang Baili to give up the extreme idea of self-cutting, saying that China needed Jiang Baili to save. After spending time with Sato Yaden, Jiang Baili found that he was deeply in love with her.
At that time, although Sato Yadori also had a good feeling for Jiang Baili, the difference in nationality made her dare not easily accept Jiang Baili's love, but Jiang Baili chased after him from China to Japan, and his deep affection touched Sato Yadori, and the two finally entered the palace of marriage.
After Sato Yadori married Jiang Baili, he changed a Chinese name called Jiang Zuomei, which was given to her by Jiang Baili, and there was no other complicated reason, just because Jiang Baili loved Mei. After Jiang Baili's death in 1938, Sato Yadō did not choose to return to Japan, and she stayed in China to rescue the innocent Chinese people who were injured in the war.
Although the emotions of the people of the two countries will form an extreme opposition in the war, there is absolutely no group in the world that can be covered by simple labels, especially all the civilians in a country. We cannot deny that most of the Japanese people at that time supported the war of aggression, but not all Japanese civilians were demons.
Later, Jiang Baili's son-in-law Qian Xuesen and his third daughter Jiang Ying broke through all difficulties to return to the motherland when the motherland was in urgent need of talents, and worked hard for the construction of new China.
