Chapter 290 Japanese Press Conference
Shanghai Expeditionary Army Headquarters, General Matsui Ishione looked at the telegram presented below, feeling a little uncomfortable. After all, it is a critical moment for the Japanese invasion of China. Why do you always cause trouble? In fact, for things like massacre, General Matsui Ishione felt that although it was a bit too much, the imperial warriors who were fighting in China were a little over, even if they vented their fatigue for several days, it was understandable. But now the telegram was intercepted by the Chinese army and it was also published to the public. This made General Matsui Ishione very angry. These things seemed to be something that could only be understood but not expressed in words.
Once the news was announced, the Chinese media naturally shared the same hatred of the enemy, but the only one who dared to attack the Japanese army would not be the only Chinese media. There are many Western power media. After all, at this time of Western countries, human rights have reached an extremely high position. The Japanese army is tantamount to openly provoking international conventions. Such an unacceptable inhuman behavior is naturally condemned by various media. The countries where they are located are basically not afraid of the Japanese army, so they have no scruples.
At this time, what can the Japanese side do? Only hold a press conference to clarify this fictitious thing. The base camp has also been dizzy for the pressure of the international community. They feel that only by clarifying this matter can it be of much help to the attack on the entire Chinese battlefield. Instead of listening to these people's noisy base camp every day, it is strange. How come it always appears on the battlefield in East China after attacking China? The base camp has urgently dispatched Asakaguchi Hokkai to Shanghai to take charge and appointed him as the commander-in-chief of the Shanghai Expeditionary Army.
But only Wang Mingyu knew that the real culprit of the Nanjing Massacre was also the direct order. The person who ordered the person was the one who was bloodthirsty by nature, but was the last person who was free from justice. After studying at the Japanese Army Officer's School and the Japanese Army University, after Taisho went to France to study in 11, he served as the commander of the First Infantry Brigade, the commander of the Guard Division, and other positions were now at the critical moment of the Japanese invasion of China. Sending a royal prince over here can show the importance of the Japanese army to this invasion of China.
However, King Hirohiko Asakamiya naturally would not arrive at the moment, and the Japanese army did not expect that it was the brother they sent to cause them to be scolded by millions of people in the future. You can invade China. You have the strength now. But if the war is fun to massacre civilians, then no matter what you are, you will be despised by history.
The Japanese army's offensive pace continued, but at this time, there were already many reporters surrounded by three layers inside and three layers inside and three layers inside. Most of them were dead. There were also some Chinese journalists occasionally. Although China and Japan were fighting, the restrictions on the media were obviously not so obvious. The Japanese army obviously did not risk offending many journalists to drive away Chinese journalists.
Among the reporters from China this time, there were Sun Xue and other reporters who applied for the application. However, they were just one of the vast army among such a large number of reporters. No one knew anyone. Sun Xue basically rushed to wherever there was danger. That time, although the siege of Baoshan County was forcibly sent out, Sun Xue still insisted on her own style.
The Japanese Central Front Army Chief of Staff Tsukada Ota held a press conference. General Matsui Ishione, as the supreme commander, naturally would not appear in everyone's sight. After all, no one would jump out of such a thing as a standout Tsukada Ota Ota was just a spokesperson for General Matsui Ishione.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, the press conference was held on time, and reporters from all over the world entered the venue one after another. Pursuing first-hand information is what they need to do most. The war between China and Japan is paying attention to the people at this moment, not only China and Japan. The whole world is engaging in fierce debate around the long-lasting war in the distant East. The interests of the Western powers in the Far East have been impacted by the Japanese army. Many powerful people are constantly discussing the current situation in China at domestic meetings.
The ordinary people in the West are obviously very concerned about this matter. They have many families. They may be fighting for the country on the front line. The situation there touches the hearts of countless people every day. At this time, no one knows whether their country will suddenly participate, and whether a round of world war will break out.
Tsukada Oshi said to the reporter below: I was entrusted by the commander of the Imperial Japanese Empire and General Matsui Ishione, the commander-in-chief of the Central China Front Army, now I will explain and answer your questions on your behalf for an hour.
Tsukada Oku said first: The Chinese army's openly slandering our Great Japanese Empire this time is shameful. There is no evidence. The Japanese Empire also retains its attitude towards the Chinese army's behavior. They are challenging the patience of the empire and paying for it. They are the empire that cannot afford it. They also hope that the Chinese military government can hand over the rumor-making people. Otherwise, they will bear the anger of millions of warriors in the Great Japanese Empire.
This is the result of the discussion of the Japanese Central Chinese Front Army. General Matsui Ishione now pushed the problem to the National Government. Of course, he knew that the culprit of this incident was Wang Mingyu, which was the highest commander of the 318th Division who had always upset him. Now that he could slander the Japanese Empire, he naturally had to put pressure on the National Government at this time, and this method was tried and tested. General Matsui Ishione obviously believed that such a decision was also an extremely entangled problem for the National Government.
As soon as Tsukada Oku finished speaking, Sun Xue stood up and asked: Now it is you Japan invading our China, and just two days ago you massacred the Chinese people in a village. Isn’t this a problem? Moreover, this time it was my commander of the 318th Division, Wang Mingyu, who discovered your conspiracy. Could it be that you Japan only have such a little ability to beat them and ask them to give them to others.
This is a direct slap in the face of Japan. Now, not only only the Chinese media know Wang Mingyu, but many Western media also support this famous anti-Japanese patriotic general. What the West admires most is that there is a hero who can stand up in times of crisis. Wang Mingyu's appearance has also made these reporters famous. A person with a story to write is naturally sought after by many reporters
Almost every reporter on the battlefield knew that the losses and blows caused by the 318th Division were known to the Japanese army. Seeing this fearless Chinese girl speaking righteously to the Japanese major general and exasperating his words, Tsukada Tomb was very admiring. Tsukada Tomb listened coldly to the translator translating Sun Xue's words, his eyes were filled with coldness. In such a public place, the empire was so embarrassing. This Chinese woman really had a good idea. Tsukada Tomb seemed to look at the dead and said: It seems that this Chinese lady doesn't know how to ask questions, guards, bomb her out for me.
As Tsukada Oshi said, the two Japanese guards walked towards Sun Xue fiercely, trying to drive Sun Xue out of the press conference. At this time, reporters from various countries were filming the scene in front of them. These were good news materials, but there were not many reporters who came forward to stop the Japanese army, and they were still shouting words such as freedom of speech.
Sun Xue looked at Tsukada and said coldly: You can drive me away, but in the end we will drive you away someone who doesn't even dare to face reality. What will happen if you can do it.
Tsukada Toru's face was as gloomy as water, and he waved his hand to signal the guards to retreat. At this time, he came to explain the clear telegram about Wang Mingyu. Of course, if you can ignore other things, you will ignore them. But just a Chinese woman, there are only opportunities to settle accounts with her afterwards. Tsukada Toru snorted coldly: If you have any questions, you can ask questions. The Chinese reporter's questions are not answered.
A reporter from the British Times said: May I ask the Major General, do you really plan to carry out the massacre that the Chinese call it after capturing the capital of China.
Tsukata shook his head and said: It is impossible that the Japanese Empire is here to help the Chinese people enrich the country and strengthen the army. How could they treat them like this? These are definitely rumors spread by the Chinese army.
Washington Post reporter said: But China has proved that the tragedy in Wuxi was caused by you. Could it be that this can't explain anything?
Tsukada Oku said disapprovingly: At that time, there were many Chinese soldiers hidden in this village. These civilians were just accidentally injured in the battle, and some were accidentally injured by their own guns. Tsukada Oku answered these questions easily. These things can be said as long as they were pushed to the Chinese army. At that time, it was a battlefield, and there was no real evidence.
Reuters reporter said: Does your victory in China mean that the next step is to exclude the interests of each country from China
Tsukada Oshi looked at the reporter and said: It is obviously impossible. The Great Japanese Empire welcomes countries to visit and guide. Tsukada Oshi's meaning is very obvious. This land is from Japan soon. If you come here, you can only come as a guest. They will naturally not do anything to the guests. But once they want to come in as a host, they will only have to fight each other.
