"Japanese soldiers are beasts. When the bullets ran out, like a group of hungry beasts, they dragged their dead or not-dead brothers into the trenches and cut off their arms and thighs..."

"The Battle of Matsuyama broke out in 1944. I was in charge of a regimental strategic replenishment at the 10th Artillery Regiment of the New 39th Division. The battle was fought so hard that the 39th Army and fraternal troops could not defeat many onslaughts, and a large number of soldiers fell in front of the Japanese bunkers. Due to the sufficient logistical support of the Japanese army, the Chinese army paid a great price and only advanced a few meters. ”

"It was the rainy season in summer, the weather was rainy and sunny, basically all day was full of mountains and clouds, the road was very difficult to walk, the trenches were filled with rainwater, the water in the depths was not over the waist, and the crotches of the brothers were soaked. The harsh climate coupled with the dense web of fire of the Japanese devils caused us heavy casualties. How many people died in the infantry, 13 people in a squad went up, and in less than half an hour there were only two people left. ”

"There was a poor man who had just rushed up to his stomach and was shot with a bullet, and before the other person was dead, he climbed to the edge of the trench and struggled, and his intestines and liver fell out of his stomach. They were all young people in their 20s, and they were gone in the blink of an eye. But the order did not stop, and it had to continue to rush upwards..."

"The land of Songshan has been almost turned over by artillery fire, and even the blood and water cannot penetrate into the soil, and the top of the mountain is dyed black."

The original dense mountain forest was also lost in the artillery fire, and there were destroyed trenches and corpses everywhere. ”

Later, with the help of the Us army, the Chinese army used new weapons, flamethrowers, and the Japanese bunker was captured. The shooters approached the devil's tunnel entrance under the cover of fire, first sprayed flames into it, then blew up the tunnel with explosives, and filled the hole with soil, so that none of the devils inside could survive. ”

But the last high ground could not be attacked for a long time, at this time, Wang Boxun, the commander of the 82nd Division, offered a clever trick. Ten tons of TNT explosives were buried high underground, sending the remnants of the Japanese army to the western sky. The remnants of the devils were still dying, and my brothers and I rushed up the mountain, threw bundles of grenades at the devils, and the swarms of devils fell down in batches like upside-down stalks, and the devils were really vicious, and finally they raised their guns and prepared to fight the bayonets. ”

"In this battle, the Chinese army threw ten regiments and 20,000 people, suffered 7,763 casualties, and the Japanese army died 1,260 people, none of them escaped, there were no prisoners, and there could be no prisoners."

"At that time, we had 500 vehicles delivering food to the mountain, and when we went down the mountain, we pulled the wounded soldiers down. After the battle was over, the bodies of the fallen comrades were pulled down the mountain, and finally more than 500 vehicles of corpses were loaded down the mountain. ”

"The Battle of Matsuyama lasted for 95 days, with as many as ten major attacks and defenses. After the war, every handful of dirt on Matsuyama was roasted by the flames of war and soaked in blood. If you grab a handful of soil in Matsuyama, you can find the shell casing, and Matsuyama has been dyed red. ”

"The Japanese soldiers are inhuman, like beasts. By the end of the battle, the Japanese had run out of ammunition, and like a group of beasts, the Japanese army dragged the soldiers of the expeditionary force who had just died or had not yet died into the trenches, lit a fire, cut off their arms and thighs, and roasted and ate them bloodily. ”

"Do you think that if you shoot someone in the head, you will immediately fall to the ground and die?" In fact, this is not the way to die on the battlefield. Even if some people are shot in the head, people fall to the ground and their hands are still scratching, struggling desperately, and finally scratching their hands full of blood, moaning and screaming, and then shouting less and less, slowly dying. ”

"Sometimes wars are more tragic than you might think.

Many of our brothers died not far in front of us, but the Japanese machine guns were running around, and everyone just couldn't collect their bodies, and they watched the corpses of these brothers rot and grow maggots, and they shed tears when they thought about it. ”

"Some brothers, not because of how good they are at fighting, but because they know they are going to die, but they are fighting for it. For the soldiers on the battlefield, it is to use their lives to launch a final attack on the enemy..."

"Whose life is not fate? At that time, the recruits were basically like me, some half-grown children, and we were not murderous murderers, but cowardly people. We all had grandmothers, grandmothers, parents, brothers and sisters who loved us... At that time, everyone was willing to die before the battle, not to do the goods, and when they saw the ghosts, they screamed and rushed up to desperately. Behind them are ordinary people, and Chinese soldiers have no way to retreat! ”

"If you've seen hundreds of Chinese soldiers shouting out loud and exhausted together – the country is alive and I'm dying!" This last-ditch slogan, mowing the grass like a whole piece of knocked down, but going forward and following the scene, you will understand what is magnificent! What a shock! ”

"Recruits who experience their first death after the war often cry and scream the names of their missing brothers after the war, which will infect and make everyone around them follow suit. After almost every big battle we fought, the battlefield was filled with this ghostly crying sound, which made people's hearts tremble. ”

"Is it a man who is not afraid of death? What's the use of being afraid? If you are afraid, you must fight, if you are not afraid, you will hit him! At that time, the country will be destroyed, and when the slaves of the country are worse than death, can you not fight? How many Japanese devils have killed us? How many houses were burned? We are for the sake of the country and the nation, and we cannot but fight. Being bullied by others is too much to do, and you have to fight back. ”

"The Japanese soldiers are basically inhuman, as long as they participated in that war, killing any of them is not unjust!" As long as it is the descendants of my family, they cannot intermarry with Japanese people for generations, and they cannot be friends with Japanese people for generations... This is my testament to the living young adults. ”

"Today, the blood stains on Pine Mountain have long been wiped away by the rain. I don't know if anyone will remember every inch of land here, there are a group of people who have fought for their homeland? Will anyone remember that buried under the mounds are the heroic souls of this nation? ”

"I write these things down because I'm afraid they'll all die as our generation dies." I have to write them down and let posterity know..."
