The massacre happened at the end of the year of 37, the sky was cold, and dead bodies were everywhere. For others, 300,000 might just be a number, but for the citizens, these numbers revealed the lunacy of the invaders, which is why generations later, so many people still harbor deep hatred for the Japanese.

Ma Lu utilized everything she learned, as well as her salary and manuscript fees, to buy lots of Chinese medicine, chemical drugs, and even sought out extracts from toxic plants and animals. The poison water she created weighed a ton, and a single drop could take down a whole group.

Perhaps she couldn’t wield weapons for now, or even give a warning, but she could definitely use the space to do something to these mad invaders.

After the Qi Qi Incident, Japan launched a massive invasion against Hua Country, and fires of war raged everywhere. Inside Nanjing City, the people were also in a state of panic.

Every day, the hospital was so busy its staff didn’t even have time to catch their breath, yet they still had to spare time to read newspapers, listen to the radio, and understand the latest situation. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

As time passed, Ma Lu’s heart was lodged in her throat; the common people lived every day like skating on thin ice, years felt like centuries, and going out was met with panic, anxiety. The massacre happened because as soon as the operation to attack Nanjing commenced, the rapidly advancing combat units had already left the logistics units far behind.

Due to Japan’s lack of preparations for deep inland logistical combat, the troops immediately faced severe problems with food supply disruptions. The Japanese Army Headquarters thus issued the ’local requisition’ order, which in practice meant looting.

During the looting, the Japanese Army often committed atrocities, like raping women. To cover up their looting and raping crimes, these beasts killed the victims and often set fire to entire villages.

Movies and TV shows naturally couldn’t recreate these scenes, but foreign media captured photos that clearly recorded their evil acts. No matter how the future generations try to cover up the facts, what was done was done; history may be erased, but the people’s memory is passed down through generations, never to be forgotten.

Even though one person’s power was limited, Ma Lu used her status as a well-known writer to alert major newspapers, hoping they’d pay attention and mobilize surrounding villages and Nanjing City residents to leave whenever possible.

Unfortunately, her text didn’t appear in the newspapers because they refused to publish it under the pretext of causing confusion and disheartening people, which is why, despite knowing what would happen, she couldn’t do anything, because it was impossible.

No one would believe the depths of human evil, and even less believe they would commit inhumane acts with a forty-day slaughter of Nanjing City.

In September of 37, Japan issued an ’indiscriminate bombing’ directive on Nanjing, destroying political, economic, industrial central organs, and moreover directly air-raiding civilians, creating immense psychological terror among the citizens, the purpose naturally being to defeat our will.

Without exaggeration, Japan’s strategy was the first in human warfare history to explicitly stipulate targeting civilians and residents’ streets for air raids during war, breaking the ethical bottom line of warfare.

Some historians believe this marks the start date of a broader Nanjing Massacre.

Every day the hospital would receive a large number of people, sending them in and out in droves, Ma Lu and her colleagues were so busy they couldn’t feel their feet touch the ground, one person would wish to work as five, and the severe shortage of medicine made them feel helpless, an angry urge to shout at the sky.

As time reached December, Ma Lu took leave from her position citing health reasons. By then, Nanjing City was already littered everywhere with the remnants of bombings, the common people dared not to step outside, seeing a few people on the streets was extremely rare, Ma Lu wandered through city streets and alleys, knocking on doors, although the final result was getting cursed and even beaten out, she didn’t regret doing it, nor care how others saw her.

She was quite glad to have been born a woman in this life, especially after years of transformation, with her hair grown long into waves, wearing a cheongsam that accentuated her curves, and with her face slightly made up, she could absolutely enchant a large number of men.

Such a beauty was dragged onto a car on the first day of the siege and brought before the officer, something she had anticipated.

Yet they never expected that she, this woman, was not ordinary. The vile beasts shut the door revealing their true nature, but unfortunately, before they could get near her, she used her spiritual power to control their bodies. She then sat quietly there, laughed seductively while shouting, watching as they mutilated themselves, calling out louder with intensity, which only made those outside go crazier, without knowing their officer had already died from massive blood loss.
