The Nanjing Massacre, which occurred after the fall of December 13, 1937, 80 years after today, cannot be forgotten for such a vendetta. In the Nanjing Massacre, a large number of civilians and prisoners of war were killed by the Japanese army, countless families were torn apart, for more than 40 days, and the number of victims of the Nanjing Massacre exceeded 300,000. These 4 Japanese have committed the greatest sins.
First, Chao Xiang Hatohiko was the real culprit of the Nanjing Massacre.
King Hatohiko of Asaka Palace was the "imperial uncle" of Emperor Hirohito of Japan. On December 1, 1937, the Japanese army began to attack Nanjing. Asaka succeeded Matsui Ishigen as commander of the Shanghai Dispatch Army and issued an order to "kill all the captives", which led to the tragic Nanjing Massacre.
Asaka issued this order to "kill all the captives", which resulted in the deaths of more than 300,000 men, women, and children, which was a heinous crime.
2. Nakajima Imago, one of the culprits of the Nanjing Massacre.
Nakajima Imago, commander of the 16th Division of the Japanese Army, invaded Nanjing on December 13, 1937, and led his troops to participate in the "Nanjing Massacre", killing more than 160,000 Chinese civilians and prisoners of war. He also encourages his subordinates to "kill in a race" where the winner kills 100 people first. The commander of the Japanese 16th Division was the division that killed the most people in the Nanjing Massacre.
3. Gu Shoufu, one of the main perpetrators of the Nanjing Massacre.
Gu Shoufu, the main culprit of the Nanjing Massacre, served as the commander of the Japanese Sixth Division, and on December 13, 1937, he led his troops to invade Nanjing, and immediately launched a terrible massacre that lasted more than 40 days. In disregard of international justice, the Japanese army even fulfilled its animalistic desires, and every night, it crossed the wall and entered. Do not choose the old and the young, grope rape, no evil and do nothing.
According to statistics, at least 50,000 Chinese civilians and prisoners of war were killed by Gu Shoufu and the officers and men of his division, and the number of Chinese killed by his Sixth Division in the Nanjing Massacre was second only to nakajima's 16th Division.
4. Yanagawa Heisuke was one of the important culprits of the Nanjing Massacre.
Heisuke Yanagawa is a lieutenant general in the Japanese 10th Central China Army. His subordinates massacred hundreds of thousands of Chinese civilians and prisoners of war in Nanjing, and the notorious massacre chief perpetrator Gu Shoufu was his subordinate. The 6th, 18th, and 114th Divisions under their command all participated in the Nanjing Massacre.
In particular, the Sixth Division was the most ferocious in the massacre, and according to statistics, the division killed more than 60,000 Chinese soldiers and civilians.
5. Emperor Hirohito and the biggest culprit of the Nanjing Massacre.
Emperor Hirohito, the Emperor of the Japanese Army, the approver of the Nanjing Massacre, without Emperor Hirohito's sealing of the national seal, would not have been able to make such a tragic event, and it was the biggest culprit.
Emperor Hirohito, who was very good at disguise, and was even said to be a puppet of the army, was forced to issue such an order by the people below, not to attack Nanking, and approved the order to "kill all the captured people". How can such a cruel thing come out.
These five people were the Japanese who committed the greatest sins of the Nanjing Massacre, what happened to them, are they all dead now?
Emperor Hirohito: He constantly exonerated himself and blamed his subordinates for their sins, thus escaping, and on January 7, 1989, he hung up and lived to the age of 88.
Asaka Hatohiko: Because of the Japanese imperial family, he escaped trial after the war because of the protection of the emperor. He hung up on April 12, 1981, and lived to the age of 94.
Nakajima Imago: Hung too early, hung up before the trial, escaped the trial of the Nanjing Military Tribunal, and hung up after Japan's defeat on October 25, 1945, and died too cheaply.
Heisuke Yanagawa: Hanging too early, when Japan was about to lose the war, the heart attack was hanging, it could not be tried, and the death was too cheap.
Gu Shoufu: On April 26, 1947, Gu Shoufu also expressed dissatisfaction during the trial, was first tortured and beaten, and was shot at Yuhuatai in Nanjing. With a snatch from behind to the back of the head, a grab, knocked off two of Gu Shoufu's front teeth and died on the spot.
The 5 Japanese in the Nanjing Massacre were the biggest perpetrators, only one was tried, the two hung too early, and died too cheaply. The two biggest culprits have not been judged, unfortunately. These people should be subjected to the greatest criminal law in ancient times, the death of a thousand knives, the type of car cracking, or the type of "ren yan" that learned Lü Yan's big move against Lady Qi.
