The atrocities committed by Japanese invaders in Haikang County, Guangdong (now Leizhou City) from 1940 to 1942 are still chilling. They used greed, cruelty and beastly nature to destroy a once prosperous small town, and also tore the happy lives of countless families. This bloody and tears history is a memory that the Chinese nation will never forget!


35 bombs, more than 400 bombs, Hikvision City became a hell on earth
From the 12th lunar month of 1940, Haikang County and Nandu Port were bombarded by Japanese aircraft one after another, totaling 35 times, and more than 400 bombs were dropped. Every explosion is accompanied by the crying and blood of the people. Houses collapsed and streets turned into ruins, and the entire city was shrouded in smoke and fear.
However, this is just the beginning of the disaster. On the sixth day of the first lunar month in 1941, the Japanese invaders invaded Haikang County for the first time and began a seven-day burn, killing, looting. They did everything they could do, turning the small town into a purgatory.


The "Xie Gongting Incident" is waving the butcher knife, and the tragic "Xie Gongting Incident"
On the twelfth day of the first lunar month in 1942, the Japanese invaders once again occupied the town of Hikang County, and from then on, they completely broke the tranquility here. According to records, the Japanese military police captain, Eni Nishimura, ordered three innocent young men to be escorted to Ximen Xie Gongting for execution. What's even more outrageous is that he not only cut off their heads with his own hands, but also dismembered the corpse into four pieces, and dug out the heart and liver and fryed it as a dish to serve. This inhuman behavior makes all the listeners grit their teeth.


Women are humiliated and compatriots are forced to watch
In addition to the massacre, the Japanese invaders also committed heinous atrocities against women. According to statistics, in Haikang City, more than 30 women, including Miss Wei, Ru Jingu and Lan Fangpo, were gang-raped. Among them, Miss Wei suffered inhuman torture from five Japanese soldiers torture. This inhumane behavior not only tramples on women's dignity, but also reveals the profound disasters and painful memories brought by war. History cannot be forgotten, and the alarm bell should be ringed.
