The site's name is <a href="http://aidu65.com/index.html" target="_blank"> "Nankin Kouryaku to Aizu Rokujuu-Go Rentai"</a>, which means "Nanjing Attack and Aizu 65 Regiment". It is said that the site owner was used to be an ex-writer of Mainichi Shimbun(newspaper). And what are written in the site are many excerpts from interviews that he made with ex-Japanese Imperial Forces' soldiers who went to Sino-Japan War around 1937. Aizu is the city name which is located in the Fukushima Prefecture, Japan. So it looks like he visited all over the prefecture to get to his interviewees. I think is the site is very important to know what it was like Japanese aggression onto China. So I would like to introduce the contents, though I am not sure it could raise "page ranks" of his site. The following English translation is done by me, so if there are any mistakes, I will be responsible for them. <br><br><br> <a href="http://aidu65.com/index.html" target="_blank">Top Page</a> <br><br> This page says that the owner wants to devote the site to "peace" and introduces that it was 1937 when that the infantry regiment 65 invaded Chinese land from Shanghai. The regiment went into Nanjing, took PWs, and killed them for two days. It was one of largest incidents of Nanjing Massacre. <br><br><br> <a href="http://aidu65.com/p1.html" target="_blank">December 16th</a> <br><br> This page depicts slaughters of Chinese war prisoners by heavy machineguns of Japanese Forces at the open space of Yú Léi Yíng which was a compound of Chinese Navy by Cháng Jing River (Yantze River). It is said that several thousands Chinese prisoners were brought to there. And Japanese local newspaper "Fukushima Minpou" reported on December 18th that 14,777 prisoners are pushed into 22 buildings. <br><br><br> <a href="http://aidu65.com/p2.html" target="_blank">Disposal</a> <br><br> This page is titled "Gave the finishing blows to barely alive prisoners", which tells how Japanese soldiers killed Chinese prisoners. Japanese soldiers were looking for survivors, and when they found, they killed Chinese by swords and guns. Some dead bodies were burned with oil, and some were just flown in the river. <br><br><br> <a href="http://aidu65.com/p3.html" target="_blank">December 17th</a> <br><br> This page tells another slaughter on the next day that Nanjing Castle Opening Ceremony by Japanese Forces. Bases to set the heavy machineguns were constructed to surround the space from three directions. It was said that numbers of prisoners were 15,000 or 16,000. As the day before, soldiers were commanded to bayonet survivors. <br><br><br> <a href="http://aidu65.com/p4.html" target="_blank">Yantze River</a> <br><br> This page is subtitled with "Drifting Dead Body on the River and Stench of Death. After the machinegun fire in the evening of 17th by the Yangtze River, killings of survivors and disposal of dead bodies were conducted by Japanese soldiers. One soldier saw that a Chinese who survived stood up and tried to fight with wooden stick against Japanese, but he should have been killed soon. It was said that "To do it, using machinegun is dangerous, so bayonet them". But some Japanese like Lieutenant M(Japanese) were mistakenly killed by guns. Disposal of dead bodies were continued to the next day, December 19th. </left> <br><br><br><br> Mr.Nishino's site has still more. But for today, I would like to stop writting about the site. <br><br><br> <!--  % % THE END OF WRITING PART  % % --> </font face> </font color> </span> <a href="09.html" target="_self"> <img src="../../pic/previous.GIF" width="100" height="25" alt="link to previous page"> </a> <a href="21.html" target="_self"> <img src="../../pic/next.GIF" width="100" height="25" alt="link to next page"> </a> <a href="#toptop"> <img src="../../pic/top.GIF" width="100" height="25" alt="link to the top of current page"> </a> <a href="../../nikki.html" target="_self"> <img src="../../pic/diary.GIF" width="100" height="25" alt="link to next page"> </a> </td> <td width="120" valign="top" cellpadding="10" bgcolor="#D6EAFF"> <span style="font-size: 9pt;"> <font color="#E01170"> <b> CHAPTER II RENUNCIATION OF WAR <br> Article 9. <br> </b> </font color> </span> <a href="../../article9_Japan_constitution.html" target="_self"> <img src="../../pic/japan_peace.JPG" width="100" height="147" alt="Do not go to war.
