Japanese atrocities: Only four people survived the massacre in 64 villages.

"I climbed out of the dead and became one of the few survivors." "Blood flows into the pond at the corner of Sangen Temple in Jinniu Town, Daye. Since then, we have called this pond a' blood pool'. " ..... Yesterday, the reporter came to the provincial archives to read the anti-Japanese archives. The words that have settled down in these years seem to jump off the paper and cry sadly!

In the early 1950s, according to the requirements of the central authorities, Hubei Province carried out the collection and investigation of anti-Japanese historical materials, leaving behind these precious historical materials soaked with blood and tears.

Yang Zhifu: "I witnessed eight or nine people die tragically because of torture."

"1940, I opened a cigarette shop at 44 Cross Street, Wuchang. On the afternoon of April 24th, Japanese Gendarmerie Captain Oda arrested me ... "Yang Zhifu, a resident of Wuhan, said in the complaint:" They said I was a spy of the New Fourth Army, but I refused to admit it, so I was hanged, smoked, burned, drowned and electrocuted for five hours. I fainted twice and was awakened by cold water. "

The next day, the Japanese invaders asked Yang Zhifu to give up his business and do intelligence work for them. Yang Zhifu refused on the grounds of bringing home the bacon. Oda was furious and ordered four people to take turns beating with sticks. "My limbs are broken and my hair is sticky with blood," Yang Zhifu said. During the five days that the Japanese invaders imprisoned him, Yang Zhifu saw with his own eyes that 89 people died tragically from torture.

Due to the guarantee of more than 30 shops in/kloc-0, Yang Zhifu was released. After more than three months of diagnosis and treatment, he failed to recover, leaving a lifelong disability. Later, the Japanese invaders came to his house to extort 30 bicycles, gold rings 12 pairs, and several thousand yuan in legal tender.

Zhou: "I crawled out of the dead."

"1940 On the ninth day of the second lunar month, the Japanese invaders bloodbath our Zhoujia Dawan." Xiaogan villager Zhou, 65,438+08 years old. He said that the Japanese invaders drove the villagers door-to-door to the rice fields outside the bay. More than fifty men all forcibly knelt down. After some fierce beatings, the Japanese invaders set out from the north, shouldered the shoulders of the top five celebrities to about thirty or forty feet and shot them as living targets.

After that, more than 30 young people, including Zhou He, were rushed to a ditch and knelt down. He recalled, "I looked down and looked back. The enemy set up a machine gun on the slope behind me ... When the bullet came, I felt like my skin was on fire. With the screams, I fell down one by one ... after a while, I looked forward from the dead pile in a trance, only to see the pine branches on the mountain in front shaking and realize that I was not dead. Look at those little friends who fell in the ditch, all of them were knocked out of their skulls, and the blood was suffocating. "

After listening to the Japanese aggressors, Zhou lay motionless on his back. Not long after, the Japanese invaders fired several shots at the people who were still struggling. Zhou was hit in the right leg and hip and fainted again. In the evening, I climbed out of Death Week. "In Zhoujia Dawan, 64 families and 4 people survived serious injuries, but they were all disabled for life."

Ji Guangzhi: "Passing through a checkpoint is like passing through a gate of hell."

1938, 10 year1October 20th, the Japanese army occupied Daye Tieshan. A file signed by the author "Ji" records: "Tieshan soon became a fascist concentration camp, full of bunkers, checkpoints and power grids. Miners and farmers were shot, buried alive, doused with pepper water, electrocuted, assassinated, bitten by dogs and so on. "

On one occasion, the Japanese captured 13 miners who refused to work for them, told them to dig their own pits, pushed them all into the pits and filled them with soil. When the soil reached the head, the Japanese army raised the butt of the gun and slammed the victim's head, causing plasma to splash. Sometimes, the Japanese army also pushed miners into the pit, poured quicklime, and then poured cold water, so that the quicklime in the pit produced high temperature, burning people raw and painful. The Japanese army called this method of harming people's lives "Misguru Gongtieshan".

Miners pass through checkpoints after work, and many young women have a layer of bottom ash on their faces. Even so, sometimes they can't escape the ravages of the Japanese. The miners said painfully, "Passing through a checkpoint is like passing through a gate of hell."

Yang Daoshuang: "Even the water in the Han River has turned red."

Lunar calendar1April 29th, 940, 12-year-old Yang Daoshuang, led by his parents, rushed to the mainland with flustered villagers. "We were panting, just sitting down, and suddenly a group of Japanese soldiers came and stabbed people with bright bayonets, killing many villagers at once." Yang Daoshuang personally met Du Dachao and his three or five brothers. Du Jiake and his son were killed below 12. Du Daobin, who was ill, was carried to the mainland by his wife on a donkey. In order to protect her husband, his wife fell on him, and the Japanese army stabbed the couple to death together. Lu's wife and 18-year-old sister were killed by the Japanese army. Yang Shenggui's family of four were all killed. Yang Daoshuang's uncle and brother-in-law Lv Jingcheng and his brother were also killed.

"Once the Japanese army cut my father with a knife, my father stopped him with his arm, struggling to defeat the Japanese army and desperately escaping from the tiger's mouth." Yang Daoshuang said: "I was so scared that I fainted in that pile of dead bodies that I narrowly escaped the Japanese butcher's knife." This time, the Japanese army killed more than 400 people and injured more than 200 people in Yangjiazhou. "Even the water in the Han River has turned red."
