Nanjing Massacre adds new evidence.

　　Xinhua News Agency, Nanjing, December 8th (Reporter Jiang Fang) On the 8th, the reporter learned from the press conference held by the Memorial Hall for Victims of the Nanjing Massacre of the Japanese Invaders that this year, the museum has collected 1,103 pieces of historical relics, including the Journal of the Japanese Invaders, Detailed Report on the Battle of the 12th Wing of the Field Artillery and a batch of original American newspapers during the Nanjing Massacre.

　　The Journal of Joining the Army written by the Japanese invaders, Nakasuke Kimura, is about 180 pages, and the title page is titled "Journal of Joining the Army-During the War in Shanghai-Nakasuke Kimura". The recording time began on August 16, 1937 and ended on December 31, 1937. This "Military Journal" does not involve front-line operations, but records in detail the information collection work carried out by the Shanghai Dispatching Army Reporting Department and the Central China Army Secret Service Department. The full name of "Nakasuke Kimura" is Matsujiro Kimura.

　　The reporter saw in the Military Journal that the atrocities committed by the Japanese army in Nanjing were recorded in a journal on December 21st: "It’s a pity that there have been a lot of robberies, rapes and forced entry into houses. During my stay, hundreds of foreigners and Chinese came to the consulate to complain. The Japanese army broke into embassies (with some exceptions), houses and schools of various countries, and the behavior was barbaric. "

　　Eidelin, head of the cultural relics and historical materials department of the memorial hall, said that in addition to the Military Journal, Japanese friend Dadongren also collected a detailed report on the battle of the headquarters of the 12 th Wing of the Wild Artillery on behalf of the memorial hall this year, recording the relevant orders issued by the team leader Nakano Asano; In addition, there is a "Action Map of the 12th Wing of the Field Artillery after Landing" which records the marching route map of the Ministry to Guangde and Wuhu after landing from Hangzhou Bay on November 5, 1937.

　　It is noteworthy that Chinese-American Lu Zhaoning once again came to Nanjing and donated 125 American newspapers, including The New York Times’s Chicago Daily Forum, San Francisco Chronicle, new york World Telegraph and St. Louis Post. Among them, The New York Times, USA on December 6, 1937 and Chicago Daily Forum, USA on December 14, 1937, both reprinted reports in Japanese newspapers about two Japanese military officers’ competition of "one hundred people beheading".

　　Yang Xiaming, a professor at Jiangsu Administration College, believes that these newspapers not only reported the atrocities committed by the Japanese army in China, but also involved the reaction of the western world, especially the report on the "100-person beheading" killing competition, which has important historical materials, cultural relics and exhibition value.

　　It is understood that the total number of various collections in the memorial hall has reached 193,000 (sets), and the Nanjing Massacre History Image Archive Data Center is under construction.
