Zhao Zhao in the past life, and be wary of future generations.
Commemoration is not for forgetting, but for deeper memory.
86 yearsBefore today.
Jinling's corpses were everywhere, and blood stained the Yangtze River red.
History is the best textbook, and we should always remember it.
On February 27, 2014, the seventh meeting of the Standing Committee of the 12th National People's Congress passed a decision to establish December 13 as the National Memorial Day for the victims of Nanjing Da**, and it has been 86 years since that bloody day.
On September 18, 1931, the September 18 Incident broke out, the Chinese people rose up to resist, since then the Chinese nation began a 14-year bloody struggle, from 1931 to 1945 half of China's territory was trampled by the Japanese invaders, more than 930 cities were occupied, in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression more than 35 million people, including more than 3.8 million troops, according to the ratio of 1937, China's direct economic losses amounted to 100 billion US dollars, indirect economic losses amounted to 500 billion US dollars.
On July 7, 1937, the Japanese aggressors brazenly launched a full-scale war of aggression against China, which brought unprecedented disasters to the people of Chinese Chinese.
On December 13, 1937, the Japanese army invaded Nanjing savagely, causing a tragic mass of 300,000 compatriots in Nanjing, who were brutally killed, countless women were ravaged and mutilated, countless children died, one-third of the buildings were destroyed, and a large amount of property was plundered. The inhumane crime created by the Japanese army is one of the "three major crimes" in the history of World War II, a horrific crime, and a very dark page in human history.
On August 15, 1945, the Japanese Emperor Hirohito Hiroshi signed the "Armistice Edict", and on the day of Japan's unconditional surrender, the front page of Ta Kung Pao reported in extra large size: "Japan surrendered!"."We can't forget, and we dare not forget, and we dare not forget these figures full of blood and tears.
On the occasion of the National Memorial Day, Nanjing City lit candles tonight to commemorate the compatriots. Let the years go by, never forget 19371213. It is the painful memory of an ancient city, and it is also the sad history of the Chinese nation. Pray for peace, do not forget the national shame, work hard, day and night. "Every point of light advances, darkness retreats one point", temper the will of rejuvenation, and always maintain the enterprising spirit, only then can the people stand up and a strong China.
On December 13, 2014, the Communist Party of China (CPC) and key state leaders attended the first National Memorial Day. **On the public memorial day, it was said: Nanjing's great *** is ironclad and cannot be tampered with. The public memorial ceremony for the victims of the Nanjing Da** is to arouse the yearning and perseverance of every kind person for peace, not to perpetuate hatred. The Chinese people should solemnly declare to the international community that today's China is a resolute advocate and strong defender of world peace, and that the Chinese people will unswervingly safeguard the noble cause of human peace and development, and are willing to sincerely unite with the people of all countries to work hand in hand to build a world of lasting peace and common prosperity.
