Hello everyone, today let's talk about that heart-wrenching history - the Japanese war of aggression against China. It's not an easy topic, but it's important for us to understand history. Let's take a look at what happened during those years, and by the way, talk about the reasons behind it.
Speaking of which, China at that time was really full of disasters. After the end of the Qing Dynasty, the warlords fought and the common people were miserable. As soon as the "September 18 Incident" broke out in 1931, Japan began to move. In 1937, the "77 Incident" began, and the full-scale war of aggression against China began.
It was a mess to be honest. The warlords and political turmoil have made it impossible to resist a modern army like Japan. However, the Chinese are not easy to bully. In the face of aggression, the whole country united as one and resisted to the death.
Speaking of what the Japanese army did, it was really outrageous. They burned, killed, looted, and did all kinds of evil in China. Needless to say, the Nanjing Massacre killed more than 300,000 compatriots. There is also Unit 731, which is simply possessed by demons, experimenting on living people, and is extremely frenzied.
What kind of "three-light policy" is still engaged in by the Japanese army, that is, killing, robbing, and burning everything. How many villages have been razed to the ground, how many people have been displaced. They also bombed all over China, causing a large number of civilian casualties. This is a war, it's a massacre!
Netizen "History Research Enthusiast" said: "What the Japanese army did was simply unconscionable and outrageous. Such atrocities should not be forgotten, and we must always remember this history. ＂
The atrocities of the Japanese army caused great suffering to the Chinese people, and this history must not be forgotten. But we must also look at it objectively and not hate all Japan because of this. After all, ordinary Japan were also victims of war. We must remember history, but we must also cherish peace and avoid the recurrence of tragedy.
In the face of such a brutal invader, the Chinese people are not sitting still. The whole country was mobilized, whether it was fighting as a soldier or supporting in the rear, everyone was contributing to the war of resistance.
The famous "Five Heroes of Langya Mountain" is a typical example. In order to cover the transfer of the masses, they would rather die than give in, jumping off the cliff and dying. There are also heroes such as "Liu Hulan" and "Dong Cunrui", all of whom sacrificed their precious lives to resist Japan.
In addition to the frontal battlefield, China has waged extensive guerrilla warfare. Fighting guerrillas behind enemy lines exhausted the Japanese army. The people are also actively participating, and they have the money to contribute and make a strong contribution. In this way, relying on the unity of the people, the Chinese people withstood the attack of Japan.
Speaking of which, we can't help but ask: how did the Japanese soldiers become so brutal? Actually, there are a lot of reasons for this.
First of all, Japan was brainwashed by militarist ideology at that time. They preach what "Yamato national supremacy" and preach that aggression is glorious. In this atmosphere, many Japan have gone crazy.
Secondly, there are also problems with the discipline of the Japanese army. They inflict severe corporal punishment on their subordinates, which leads them to resentment towards their superiors. On the battlefield, this resentment is vented on the civilians.
Let's talk about the role of women in Japan. At that time, Japan women were required to "give birth to children and serve the country" and fully supported the war. Their support has also invisibly fueled the arrogance of militarism.
Netizen "History lover Xiao Wang" said: "The poison of Japan's militarist ideology is too deep, causing many ordinary people to lose their minds. This reminds us to be vigilant against the dangers of extremist thinking. ＂
Militarist ideology has indeed brought great harm to Japan society. It harms not only China, but also Japan itself. This tells us that extremism in any form is dangerous and that we need to be rational and human at all times.
Speaking of which, the war brought great disasters to Japan itself. The domestic economy collapsed, there was a shortage of materials, and the people lived in hardship. Many people went hungry and endured Allied bombing.
What is even more terrifying is that militaristic thinking poisons the whole society. People are brainwashed and lose the ability to think for themselves. Although Japan developed economically after the war, the influence of this thinking has persisted.
It is worth mentioning that many Japan women also paid great sacrifices during the war. They were forced to become "comfort women" or work overtime in factories. It can be said that the war has brought suffering to all.
Netizen "Peace Messenger" said: "The war has caused Japan the same serious damage. This reminds us that peace is the common pursuit of mankind. ＂
The war is a great disaster for both sides. Japan society is still trying to get out of the shadow of war. This tells us that peace is not easy to come by, and we must cherish it doubly. At the same time, it is also necessary to reflect on history and avoid the recurrence of tragedies.
Talking about this, I don't know what you think? Truth be told, this history is really heavy. But I think we can't just hate blindly, but we have to learn to reflect.
First of all, we must remember history and never forget the national shame. What happened during those years should never be forgotten. We must pass on this history so that future generations will always remember the cruelty of war.
Second, we should cherish peace. If you look at what happened in those years, you can see how precious peace is. The current happy life is not easy to come by, and we must cherish it even more.
Finally, we need to learn to reflect. Why is there a war? What can be done to avoid a repeat of the tragedy? These questions are worth pondering. Only by truly understanding history can we create a better future.
Netizen "History lover Xiao Li" said: "We should look at this period of history objectively and rationally. Neither can we forget nor be blinded by hatred. We should learn from history and work together to create a peaceful future. ＂
Indeed, we should look at history in a rational and inclusive manner. Remembering the past is to better face the future. We must draw lessons from history and strive to maintain world peace so that the tragedy of war will never be repeated. At the same time, it is important to understand that ordinary people are often the biggest victims of war. We condemn the militarists who launched the war of aggression, not all Japan.
Well, that's all for today's topic. History is heavy, but it is important for us to understand it. I hope you can learn something from it, and welcome to share your views in the comment area!
