SOL NEGRO
LA MASACRE DE NANKING

On July 71937, the Japanese started the
Lugou Bridge Incident.

Then a full scale war with China began.

Japan asserted the destruction of
China in three months.

On August 13th 1937, Japanese
troops attacked Shanghai.

In Nov 1937, Shanghai, Soochow
and Soongiiang fell.

From three directions, troops
moved to attack Nanking.

on Nov 20th 1937, Chiang Kai-shek announced
moving the capital of Chungking.

Genera! Tang Sung-chi was ordered to
protect Nanking.

on Dec 2nd, Genera! Matsui Mane of Japan
ordered an attack on Nanking.

on Dec 5th, Japanese troops launched
a full-scale attack on Nanking.

On Dec 11, Nanking was surrounded,
Then on Dec 13th, Nanking fell.

Master the war is over.

It's quiet outside and it seems to be over.

Who knows what the Japanese are doing.

Aren't the Japanese Buddhists?

It's not the same.

Go ahead and take a look.
- Yes sir.

This way.

Buddha protect us, please bless our safety.
Buddha protect us, please bless our safety.

There's big trouble.
The whole city is a disaster.

Da Hwa Theater is on fire. The Ministry of
Transportation is also burning.

The soldiers are retreating. Jingling University,
Central Business Plaza... all are burning.

That building cost over three million dollars.

It seems to be quiet now.
The war seems to be over...

The waris over'?
- Our house of five generations is safe.

Buddha protected us.

Take care of the children.
If an accident happens, what should we do'!

Go to the refugee zone. I think we should go.

We should stay here. If our home isn't safe...
then it isn't safe anywhere.

They stopped shooting.

The flyers from the Japanese planes
said they won't hurt us.

You never know...

All right, we'll stay home.

We should eat.
- Start the fire for me please.

I have to go to school.
- The school isn't open anymore.

Mom, why don't you take a nap'!

John come over here. I'm going to
give you a good luck charm.

Don't shoot! Don't shoot! I'm a Japanese journalist!

Lt. Genera! Tani Hisao: Commander of
the 6th Division oi the Japanese Army.

The injured soldiers are still attacking.

Don't leave any captured orinjured soldiers alive.
- Yes sir!

This war is tough, the soldiers are all tense.
The supplies are not enough.

All regulations are suspended for three days.
- We should set up comfort houses.

Every house in Nanking is a comfort house.
Every Chinese woman is a comfort woman.

Yes sir!

Pray for the dead Japanese soldiers.

Yes sir!

Syaku Shinso, Japanese Buddhist monk:
Corpse collector of the Japanese Army.

We're the first troops to occupy Nanking.
We will be written in history.

Report! Sir!

Team 3 of the 47th company has overtaken the city walls.

We will make the Chinese fear our power.
Have you started the clean up campaign?

It's being done.

My son!

Shut up!

Let him go!

Spread out!

Freeze!

During the clean up campaign repeat
what you'd pay attention to.

Kill those who open doors slowly! Kill those who run!
Kill those who hide! Kill those with short hair!

Kill those with hands in pockets!
Kill kill kill kill!

There may be grenades in their pockets!

Expose your hands.

Just do what they tell you to do.

Don't run.

Remember t0 stay alive. That is the important thing.
Let's go.

And don't run around.

Dear neighbors, sisters and brothers.

The Imperial troops just said...

...they will kill those who open doors slowly.
Kill those who hide. Kill those who run.

Kill those who have short hair.

Can you speak Japanese').

Yes, I know a bit.

So work for the Imperial Army.

Yes sir.

Imperial Army.

Neighbors, please step fonuard.

The Imperial Army is going to give a speech.

Come here, step fonuard. Come on, hun'y up.

What do you want'!

Daddy!

Take the children and run!

Run!

Run!

Sasaki: Officer in the 16th Division
of the Japanese Army.

History is being made.

The Japanese Empire will control all of Asia.
This is the trend of history.

I feel honored and proud to be
a soldier of the Japanese Empire.

If these intimidation methods work.
All of China will surrender soon.

Then the war will be over.
It would be more fortunate for the Chinese.

It'll be a lot of work to establish a new Asia.

Going from Manchuria to Nanking,
my feelings have changed.

Galloping in China's plain's, fighting in war,
that's a man's true life.

The original building housing
the Nationalist Government.

Lt. General Nakajima Kyogo: Commander of
the 16th Division of the Japanese Army.

The original corridor of the
Nationalist Government Building.

This way please.

Please.

Generalissimo Chiang kai-shekb original office.

Sung Dynasty?
- Yes.

Mr. Chiang lived in the military school.
He used to work here.

I will work here also.
Take care of the antiques.

Yes sir!

Chinese traditional culture is really great.

I mean classical culture.

This has nothing to do with your generation.
- Yes... yes.

Mr. Miyamoto Fukukan, you talk to him.
- Alright.

You are a friend of the Imperial Army.

If the Chinese refuse to co-operate
they'll be punished.

We support the Imperial army.
We will follow your orders.

You have to make the people understand.
- Sure... sure...

This place is adequate. Make headquarters here.
- Yes sir.

Wait.

Nice calligraphy.

Let's hide in here.
Come on and hun'y up.

Take care of brother and stay here.
I'll find you something to eat.

Don't come out no matter what.

Uncle, uncle. Come back soon.

I'll be back. Don't leave.

About the war...

The original conference room of
the Nationalist Government.

Go ahead.
- Yes Sir!

Report from Sasaki's team.

Our troops started from the Tse-qing Mountain.

We charged into ourfoe's camp
and annihilated them.

The tanks moved towards Xia-kwan at 10 AM.

They mowed down the retreating
Chinese soldiers on the river bank.

The 38th Division has occupied
the northern city walls.

They blocked the enemy's retreat
then moved into Yi Jiang Men.

The 6th Division then charged from the south.

Then attacked the Chinese army.
The 11th fleet sailed to the UpperYangtze River.

Then attacked their gun ships.
Kunizaki Shitai reached Pu-kou at 4 PM.

The rest of the troops are cleaning up the city.

The city has been successfully
surrounded and annihilated.

Very good.

There are over 50,000 Chinese soldiers in town.

Sasaki's group killed 20,000
and captured thousands.

Our soldiers don't know what to do with the POWs.

The order of Asakanomiya Hatohikoo says...
...kill all POWs and don't leave any behind.

The report from the refugee zone says...

...there are Chinese soldiers
hiding in civilian clothing.

Headquarters said to be sensitive to international
relations dealing with foreigners.

No matter where the Chinese are hiding,
capture all of them.

Don't let anyone escape.

Tell the soldiers to start a killing competition.
- Headquarters will reward the soldiers.

The 6th division of Tani Hisao was the
first to occupy The China Gate.

Tani Hisao?! We entered the
National Government's Compound first.

This is the heart of China! Inform all of the troops.

Hand over all trophies of war to Headquarters.
The rest divide it among themselves.

Are women also trophies of wen'!

Stop!

Stop!

Please let me go.

Yanagigawa Shogun said, "Every mountain river
and tree in China is the enemy."

Corporal Nada Iwa, who killed
over 100 Chinese with an army sword.

The old things in China are not as easy to
chop off as the heads of Chinese.

We sent out the pictures yesterday.

You'll soon become a famous hero in Japan.
- Thank you.

Mr. Nada ma.

Corporal Mukai Toshiaki who killed
over 100 Chinese with an army sword.

Last time I killed 105 people.

You killed one more than me.
My target is now 150 people.

If all Japanese are as fierce as you.
We can destroy half the population of China.

Then it'll be easier to govern China.
- One more picture for memories sake.

Look.

Lieutenant Tanaka Gunkichi who killed
over 300 Chinese with his Sukehiro sword.

Tanaka Gunkichi! He killed 300 people himself.
- He's a real hero.

If I had that Sukehiro sword, I could
have killed just as many.

I've heard that he is great swordsman.
- What's the big shit...

Mr. Tanaka Gunkichi... wait!

Mr. Tanaka Gunkichi... wait!

Reporters are so perverse.

The Imperial Armies posters said;
"When the Imperial Army arrives peace arrives."

The Refugee Zone was depicted by the Japanese
journalists showing what peace meant to them.

Wait... wait!

I'm head of the lntemational Committee
for the Nanking Safety Zone.

My name is John Rabe. I'm German and
Chairman of the lntemational Committee.

This is Dr. George Fitcher an American and
the Committee's Assistant Administrator.

This is the safety zone for the Refugees and
it's been approved by the Japanese Headquarters.

It is a place for Chinese Civilians to take refuge.
Do you understand?

It's understood.

Some disarmed soldiers are in the refugee camp.
I hope your soldiers will respect humanitarianism...

...and obey the international agreements
and spare lives.

Why did you shoot?
- Get back!

Why are you killing them?

Takayama Kenshi: Samurai and a good friend of
Lt. General Nakajima Kyogo.

Sung dynasty?
- You're very perceptive.

I've seen many of your precious antiques.
They are enough for an exhibition.

I have better pieces.
How about this Kamagura sword'!

This sword was made from the soul of the smith.
It's perfect, and seen by few.

Isn't it as good as the Masamune sword'!

Masamune made his swords during
the Kamagura sword making period.

His swords are always praised by collectors.

For sharpness, Masamune's swords are no
match of his student, Mura Masa.

But Masamune's sword is an expression of himself.
It adds power to one's soul.

To compare swords for sharpness
put Mura Masa's sword in the middle of a river...

...and check the fate of dry
leaves floating down.

The leaves passing through the
sword were cut into halves.

Then they put Masamune's sword to the same test...

...the leaves avoided his sword.
Masamune had no interest in killing people.

Because his perspective is that a sword
should no longer be a killing tool.

Mura Masa's sword has not gone
beyond the killing powers of a sword.

Swords are used for killing.

That is why Mura Masa's swords are
better than his Mastefs.

Mura Masa's sword represents the
threatening power of a dictator.

Because Masamune's sword is
humanistic, it's superior.

When the enemy sees the sword,
they both fear and respect it.

So it is a sword suitable for
real samurai warriors.

A sword is the soul of a samurai warrior.

It's real function is to kill
those who object to its Masters will.

It will always point at evil.
- But it has another function.

It can destroy all impulsive acts
created by the instinct for self protection.

Well that's philosophy.
Soldiers don't need philosophy.

A Samurai with a conscience should always
remember that swords have two functions.

Othenuise, they only know how to destroy.
Then it becomes evil.

In order to conquer the opposite side
a brave heart isn't enough.

This isn't a playground
for practicing swordsmanship.

And it's not a place for training samurai.

But this is China. To deal with the Chinese,
you must hold a sword.

This is the sword held by Futomyoo.

This sword is for destroying all
who block Buddha's teachings.

In order to have a prosperous new Asia.
This must be a holy war.

Do you know what a holy war is'!

Are you against this holy wen'!
Are you a pacifist?

Being Japanese, especially a traditional
samurai. I support a holy war.

Fighting is for gaining victory.
It's been ten years since the Eastern Meeting.

The Great Asia Prosperity
Region is about to be created.

This is not only Prime Minister Tanaka's wish.
It's also a dream to reform the world and save humanity.

This is a duty all Japanese should try to accomplish.

Our beliefs are similar and not different.

It's similar but not exactly the same.
- What do you mean?

Short term vs. long term goals.
It's not comparable.

Don't over-value yourself.

What you see is limited. Your
heart should be unlimited.

General Nakajima Kyogo, you
are the finest soldier...

...for a tree's leaves to grow well
it must have deep roots.

Winning a waris easy, but
winning people's hearts is not.

That is why we must use force
first and teach them later.

That's why we conquer China first
and make them surrender.

Sun-tze said, "One who wins wars
may not be the best general."

Defeating others without fighting
a war is the best general.

The theory is not bad, but you can't
deal with the Chinese this way.

Use socialization.

Kenshi, you have toured China for many years.
You know the depth and richness of Chinese culture.

Unlike Japan...

There are different depths of cultural development.

I don't mean this generation,
I mean future generations.

Your thinking is very deep.
I admire you very much.

I saw many Chinese willing to die
rather then surrender.

If you want them to willingly
accept Japanese culture...

...then you must use the sword.
- The Chinese are not that stupid.

They know the importance of progress.

We must convert those with
strength into weakness.

For science and economics to develop in China.
The Chinese need to learn Japanese.

By learning Japanese, they will have
more contact with Japanese culture.

So they will better understand Japan's
responsibility to humanity.

They have adopted ideas from
Confucius, Mencius and Buddha...

...they will also adopt Japanese culture.

China is huge with an immense population.

China also has weaknesses, but from our
point of view they are strengths.

They are not united. They are easily fractured.
We can use this to our advantage.

Strengths become weaknesses weaknesses
become strengths, not bad in theory.

Confucius controlled China for 2000 years.

Buddhism is engrained in people's hearts.
Sword can't do that.

Talk is easy.

General.

The materials to test your sword is ready.

I haven't used my sword in Nanking yet.
Please come with me to test my sword.

Please.

Takayuma Kenshi, you first.

This way please.

Look.

See how our soldiers are trained to use the sword.

The captives are disarmed according to regulations.
- There are no regulations here!

Ready.

What do you think?

May Buddha bless us.

Historical photo of a Chinese monk
shot by the Japanese.

Freeze.

Why are you arresting me'! Why'!

Jean don't come out!

Jean... John! Definitely don't come out!
Don't come out! Can you hear me'!

Uncle!

Don't leave here!

A Japanese soldier: Nakayama
gave evidence mat...

...among the corpses, there
were many bodies of people...

...who were not soldiers; many were
women, old men and children.

How can the Imperial Army tolerate
hanging that in their Headquarters'!

This is a proverb we should follow. Look.

"Aren't these words written well?"

My troops entered Nanking first.

We were the first to raise the Japanese
flag at the China Gate.

My troops hung the flag at the Capital.

And we announced to the world that...

...the Capital was occupied by the
Japanese Imperial Army.

Is your headquarters established at the China Gate'!

Mr. Nakajima Kyogo has studied abroad.

May I know... Did the Germans or the French
teach you such verbal tricks?

I always pay attention to content and not form.

Have you heard of the killing
competition among our troops?

What about it'! It's no big deal
to kill a hundred people.

My soldier Tanaka Gunkichi, used his Sukehiro
sword and killed three hundred Chinese!

If you don't believe it.
Read the Tokyo Daily newspaper.

General Nakajima Kyogo.

Yesterday the Emperor issued
a royal instruction.

He's satisfied with the quick
occupation of Nanking.

He wants it to be known among the soldiers.

Tell others to clean up
the remains of the Chinese Army.

Pay special attention to the refugee zone.
It's organized by foreigners.

Pay special attention to it.
- What refugee zone'!

There is no such thing.

Those Chinese soldiers in civilian
clothes should be removed.

The lntemational Refugee Committee
is recognized by headquarters.

On the surface we must recognize them.

As I understand the order.
When dealing with Chinese...

...men, women, young or old, they should all be killed.

This will make them fear us.
It will end the war and reduce casualties.

The foreigners are difficult,
but we can't ignore their effects on world opinion.

Especially that German Rabe.
He waves the Nazi flag. It's so ridiculous.

I've heard there's an
aggressive American woman.

This is the Refugee Safety Zone.
You must leave.

Go away! You cannot interfere with our mission.
- You can't go in.

Bitch! Cut the crap or
I won't be polite.

What should we do'! What should we do'!

It's a shame we lack
a Western comfort woman.

Leave! Leave here!

This western comfort woman is really tough.
See you tonight. Move out!

Reverend Magee of the International Committee.
They came fourtimes today to search for disarmed soldiers.

Many civilians were arrested
and will be shot as soldiers.

Dr. Wilson at Gu-lou Hospital is
working very hard to save lives.

This is the original Gu-iou Hospital.

These are documentary films of injured
patients taken by a Reverend Magee.

These people taken out will be shot.
- Not necessarily.

Then why are there gun shots
right after they go out?

Stop guessing.

How can they kill so many?
- It's impossible without a reason.

See... they are lining up very orderly.
It doesn't look like an execution.

If they're going to be executed.
Why don't they revolt'!

When will it be our turn?

Damn it. If we're going to die.
Why don't we die fighting?

How can we fight without any weapons?

With so many of us, we can at
least trample them to death.

Do you know how many Japanese are outside?

At least trying is better then waiting to die.
- OK, you be the first.

What are you up to'!
- My stomach aches.

Anyone else?

You... come over here.

Hurry 11P-

By making trouble all of us will suffer.

If they really want to execute us...

...sooner orlaterwe'll know
and then we can talk about it.

If we are killed at least
it will be in the afternoon.

Stop talking about such depressing things.
- I'm just talking.

The Chinese are really strange.
How come they don't fight back?

That's why we starved them. When
people are hungry they lose all sense of rebellion.

Stop talking.

Yes sir.

Other soldiers are cawying out your orders.
Go replace the executioners.

Yes sir!

Hun'); up and go.
- Yes sir!

You... come here.

Take him away.
Go...

Go... go!

“L witnessed people in groups often taken out and executed.“
Chan Te-chang, a survivor

Who's that?

Hun'); up and get out of town.

The executioners are working really hard.
They started very early this morning.

Hun'); up.
- Hero... good morning.

That's a lot.

Can I'!
- Sure.

Everyone can have six for breakfast.
Mr. Tanaka Gunkichi, did you sleep well'!

Very well.

We fought from Yung-ting Riverto Nanking.
I had such an enjoyable time.

This place is famous for pretty women.

They aren't better than
Japanese or Korean women.

They know how to serve the Imperial Army.

I beg you to stop.

Please don't burn my house down.

Go ahead and put out the fire now!

I'm going to kill you!

This street will be the main route for the ceremony.
We must clear the corpses or it will look very bad.

Yes sir.

There will be foreign journalists at the ceremony.
Don't let them write any nonsense.

We haven't stopped clearing the corpses.
The workload is too heavy.

The ditches are full and we
don't know where to put the bodies.

Tani Hisao suggested dumping them in the river.
- We can't. Tani Hisao's suggestion's are nonsense.

Not only did I see floating corpses of Chinese
soldiers in the river but also civilians.

Men, women, old and young... all floating by.
They looked like floating logs. It looks really bad.

Then burn them. This will change their
appearance before throwing them in the river.

Get more coolies to clear the bodies.
Then kill the coolies, that'll save time.

Good... now what about the Refugee Zone'!

Those foreigners are troublesome.
They've blocked the search team.

And they keep protesting to our embassy.
- They are troublesome.

Forget about them, keep on raiding.
- Yes.

Riggs: a member of the International Committee.

You can't arrest them!

These Chinese police were invited by our
lntemational Committee...

...to maintain orderin the Safety Zone.
It's approved by your headquarters.

I can vouch for them.
You can't come here and arrest people.

They are not soldiers. They are civilians.
I can guarantee that. You can't arrest them.

Bastard.

Yesterday, your Embassy promised not
to arrest people here.

You don't keep your word.

How dare you interfere with the
mission of the Japanese Imperial Army!

The Japanese officefs meaning is...
- Damn it... move!

You're fascist!

You're a fascist!

Hun'); up and run! Come on and hun'y up...

The Chinese War Crimes Tribunal during the,
the judgment of Tani Hisao. Tani Hisao said...

“At 1:00 pm on Dec 15th 1937,
2,000 Chinese policemen were...

captured and executed en masse at Han Chung Gate.“

Go in... go!

Dec 17th 1937, the Japanese Amy's
ceremonial entrance into Nanking.

The ceremonial head was General Bllatsui lwane.

This documentary footage was filmed
by the Japanese for propaganda purposes.

Genera! Matsui Mane, Commander of the
Japanese Expeditionary Forces in Central China.

Although killing is unavoidable in warfare.
We still must observe lntemational law.

The Emperol's directive did
not mention international law.

It's unnecessary to point that out.

In the Emperofs directive for the
Japanese-Russian and Ching Dynasty wars...

...they all mentioned observing lntemational law.
It's absence is not accidental.

Calling it a conflict rather then
a war already makes it different.

There are complex reasons behind this.
- The soldiers have terrible discipline.

If you're a real soldier. You must reflect on this.

When we were invading Nanking
you were resting at a sanatorium.

So you may not know how hard the soldiers suffered.

It's a great achievement to
conquer China's capitol.

To have more leeway with the
rules is not asking much.

You mean slaughtering, burning and
raping are mere relaxation of the rules'!

How can this be a soldiers behavior'?
- How can a soldier not kill?

Without women... how can we be men'!
Then how can we claim victory. And the fires...

It's really cold so the soldiers
set fires to make themselves warm.

In this conflict many heroes were made.

Killing women, children and the disabled.
How can that be called heroism'!

Those who win are heroes.

Lt. Genera! Asakanomiya Hatohikoo:
an uncle of Emperor Hirohito.

What about morality?
- In a foreign land enemies are everywhere.

Talking about Japanese
morality is not realistic.

Lt. General Anan: in charge of the Rear Services
- Among ourselves we must act morally.

Wherever you are you have to act
with integrity t0 have a good life.

If our Empire is successful ourlives
will naturally be beautiful.

If our country's integrity is intact
then our personal integrity is not important.

Especially from a long term and
historical point of view.

We're talking about history now?
The winner writes history.

What about honor'?
- Only the strong have honor.

I do not agree with you.
- We don't ask for agreement. Just understanding.

Nanking was the capital of
China for six dynasties.

I have a special feeling about the invasion of Nanking.

Both of you must respect General Matsui lwane.
- We respect him but he shouldn't restrict our troops.

With too many restrictions how can we fight?
- He is an older soldier. His words are reasonable.

If you were fighting in the trenches
instead of sitting in a sanatorium.

You would think differently too.

He was really sick and not trying to escape the war.
So you shouldn't...

We never expected much from him anyway.
But it's not fair for him t0 criticize us this way.

He just sees victory.

The enemy fought desperately.
It was a battle inch by inch.

You knew the enemy would fight
valiantly to protect their capital.

You shouldn't have taken revenge.
- It wasn't revenge after all.

We should respect General Matsui lwane.
- He doesn't know the nature of conflict.

He doesn't know the meaning behind
the Emperol's directives.

To control a country like China
it cannot be done with just soldiers.

We have to stun and threaten them first.
Psychologically, we have to destroy them.

We must make them fear and respect us.
It's not a simply a question of victory.

To rule China we have to take extreme measures.
I say we kill and destroy everything in Nanking.

The Chinese will remember the penalty for disobedience.
It's not an issue of revenge at all!

All the officers agree that this is the best way
t0 can'); out our Emper0r's will.

We are willing to be blamed. We will be responsible.

This holy war must be a success.

It's no coincidence that General Asakanomiya Hatohikoo,
the Emperol's uncle, has come here.

Therefore our Emperol's meaning is clear.

Stop, what are you doing'!
- I'm getting water.

OK go...

Why did they bring you here?

To do some labor work.
They'll be giving us food, clothes and money.

Go and check that side.

Jean... John!

Jean... John!

Jean... John!

The Japanese army is the worst army in the world.

From the enemies viewpoint it's also a
form of compliment.

In the conference, you suggested sacrificial rites
for the Chinese soldiers.

All of the officers objected because
they personally faced the enemy.

During official meetings it shows we are fair.

We must use the power of generosity.
Killing is just a method.

We must kill the Chinese in order to liberate them.
This is absurd but also logical.

Just like physical punishment for students.
It's for their future.

They must make sacrifices.
In the long term they will benefit from it.

Sooner or later the Chinese will appreciate
the Japanese and the Japanese Emperor.

You don't object to the methods of the officers?
- I can't support murder and raping openly.

How can I not understand their thinking?
Everyone must act his role.

So during the meeting, I allowed them all
opportunities to express their opinions.

So I can understand them.

I think, Nakajima Kyogo and Tani Hisao
both have potential.

In military and political matters,
they both have their own thoughts.

They both have guts too. Even though I'm
their commander, they're not shy in front of me.

They know the limits of proper behavior.
- I admire you for your openness.

You have to train your subordinates to tell the truth.
This is the best way to control yourtroops.

For character development we still have
to learn from the Chinese.

The Chinese?

I mean the ancient Chinese.

Each generation of Chinese is getting worse.
But the Japanese are growing stronger year by year.

So we have to help the Chinese orAsia will be taken
over by European and American powers.

Yes sir.

Stop!

Stop!

Stop! What are you doing'!
- It's you again?

I don't like foreign women. They're not good to eat.
- Let's go.

Stop! This is the boundary
of the lntemational Committee.

This is a magical flag. It
can stop thousands of soldiers.

You bastard!

Japanese pigs!

Out of the way!

Get up!

Freeze!

Get that woman!

Freeze! Freeze!

The Imperial Army can't do this.

You can't do this... you can't do this!

Let me go!

You bastards!

A woman.

This is documentary footage of
Ms. Hsiu-ying at Gu-lou Hospital...

...where she is obtaining emergency treatment for her injuries.

We have to hold a Muslim ceremony for the dead.

Let's call us the Nanking Muslim Burial Team.
- We must do it for our fellow Muslims.

It's too dangerous to bury the corpses now.
- We are not afraid.

Right.
- Yes.

Stop.

Do you have my letter?
- Let me look at it.

I've got a letter.
- This is your letter.

Oh, great.

Any for me'!
- Go away. - Let me see.

Life is very difficult.
Mom goes to the temple to pray for you everyday.

You got a letter from home. Why do you cry'?

Life is more difficult in Japan.
Taxes are increasingly heavy.

My father died last week.
Before his death... he kept calling my name.

I am the only male child at home.
My brother died on the battlefield two months ago.

My younger brother came to China too.
We have no one to farm the land at home.

These are letters for our dead buddies.

They didn't know their husbands and sons are dead.

Maybe they know now.

Didn't they say we could go back to Japan after
Nanking's fall'! Why are we starting a new wen'!

Bastard! How can we win by saying such nonsense?

Only victory can bring our
relatives prosperous lives.

So we can return to our country
with glory. Do you understand?

Yes sir.

There is an order from headquarters.

All war trophies can be sent back
to Japan after approval.

So part of your problem is solved, right'!
- Yes sir!

Let me go... let me go!

Let them go.

This is the security zone,
I am an American Protestant minister.

I want to sue you.

Go.
- Stop!

Get out of here!

He's German.

We understand why you Germans treated the Jews
that way. I hope you understand us Japanese too.

Stop the bullshit and get out of here!

Hun'); up and thank them. - Thank you... thank you
- It's alright.

No big deal... just go back.

I don't like it either but it's
useful to deal with the Japanese.

This is using poison to fight poison. I'm leaving.

Where are you going'!
- I've forgotten the two kids waiting for me outside.

Be careful.

Hun'); up and search!
- Hun'); up...

This way... look!

There seems to be something here. What's this?

It seems to be a Buddhist sutra.
This is very valuable.

Drop it! Drop it!

We move some things in and
other things out. It's fair.

This shipment of opium is enough to
support our troops for several months.

It was useless for China to fight the Opium Wars.
They're still smoking opium.

The British have a long view of events.
They're politically conniving.

The Chinese are large in numbers and hard working.
We must train them like oxen to work for men.

Opium should enslave them very well.

If they're not obedient.
Then it will be very hard for us.

Are you heading out today?
- Yes, heroes are going to fight again.

You have to keep an eye on the fruit of our victory.
- Don't wony.

You're lucky.
- It's a heavy duty to guard Nanking.

I've heard that you're taking women
ages 14 to 40 with you.

They numberless then a thousand.
- Was General Matsui lwane informed?

I didn't want to bother him.
It's not necessary to report everything to him.

General Matsui lwane values both of you very much.
- He praises you of being wise and brave.

You have honey lips. That's why
you have good relations with him.

I've served him in Manchuria for years.

The Chinese Govt. didn't listen to
our advice but befriends America and Britain.

They deserve what they get.
- So that's why you know some Chinese words.

Compared to your Shantung dialect.
I'm no match for you.

Ten years ago, I landed in Qingtao
and kicked the Germans out.

Now I've landed in Shanghai and
kicked all the foreigners out.

The competition to go from Shanghai to Nanking,
you've both achieved very much.

I think we've completed one step now.

What step? This is a friendly competition.
Right?

You can't even be my opponent.

Let's g0!

There are about 2000 disabled
soldiers hiding in the Refugee Zone.

Has to be at least 20,000.

The refugees will have to be registered.
Make it happen.

We have to establish a self-governing committee.

We must disband the Refugee Zone to stop the
foreigners from interfering.

Yes sir.

I'd suggest all of you get registered.

The Refugee Zone is not under Japanese control.
We won't go.

It's up to you. I'm just trying to inform you.

You're a chicken trying to cheat a fox.
You're not helping.

This is volunteer work. I'm just trying to help.

If I'm lying my head will roll
and my son will be a witness.

You don't have any guts at all!

Do you have any'! If you do
why don't you stop the tanks?

If you have the guts then don't register tomorrow.
- Why you...

Forget it... just let him go.
- I have to look for my kids first.

I think I should get a citizen's ID first.
It'll be safer.

And you can also have jobs.

If you're found out.
You'll have your heads chopped off.

Hurry up!

This is footage of the refugees
receiving their ID cards.

You four... come here!

Go back.

Keep quiet... keep quiet!
- You come out.

Are you a government official?
- I owned a little shop.

What happened?
- It burned down.

Go back.

And you, what do you do'!
- I'm a clerk. I've never been a soldier before.

We're looking to catch clerks.
- No no no... I'm a teacher.

Now we want to catch teachers.

Get out of the way.

Keep quiet.

Salute.

All bow down.

Bastard! Why don't you bow down'!

Come out.

Burn him to death.

Down with Japanese Imperialism!

Down with Japan...

Killing one to warn all is
an old Chinese saying.

This race should be rue-educated.

Move fonuard!

Hun'); up and move faster.

Hun'); up and get that side too.

Set the fire!

Go and ask Miss Bates.

Miss Bates... have you seen a girl with pigtails
and a boy with a lucky charm around his neck?

Not here, you'd better search somewhere else.
- Don't won'y, maybe they've returned home.

If you see them, please make them stay.
- Alright, don't won'y.

I'm going home to take a look.
- Ok.

Can'y yourlD.
- Yes thank you.

Who are you'! Freeze... don't move!

I'm a civilian.
- What civilian?

Using live humans to practice on is valuable experience.

We can't do this normally, only during war.

You have to practice seriously.
Practice is now over. Now get in the car.

Today was really exciting.

Mr. Noda lwa!

I've come to take a photo of you killing the enemy.
- Not today, the captives are all killed.

No way, this is demanded by the press.
- No more Chinese here'!

0k, we can get someone from town.

It's getting dark. We won't have time.
- Yes.

You...
- Right.

Me'! No way. It's bad luck.

Come on... please help. Yourjust posing for a photo.
- Just one quick shot.

Don't be scared. Please.
- It's bad luck.

OK... just one picture.

Are you ready?

Higher... a bit to the left.
Great... a bit more to the left... good.

Pappa!

Stop shouting. Dad is working.

Bastards!

The light is fading... just one more.
We have to shoot it this time.

Ready.

Come here and take it out.

Next!

See whether it's a boy or a girl.

You bitch!

How dare you cheat the Imperial army?

How dare you'!

Thank you Buddha.

It's a lustful monk.
I'll let you have some fun.

It's a rare chance for a monk to
taste the flavor of a woman.

He's not trained, I guess he doesn't
know how to shoot his organ.

Let's teach him.

The Imperial Army will teach you how to cum.

It's sinful...

Buddha forgive me... Buddha forgive me...

Freeze!
- Run!

Freeze!

Freeze... freeze!

Freeze!

Go in... hun'y.

Run away... run!

Run away.

One of the survivors: Mr. Liu Yong-shing
testified mat...

"At the river bank, the Imperial Army burned
5000 corpses and injured persons...

...and only he and a few others
survived the conflagration.“

Grandma... Grandma!

Grandma...

I can't live anymore.

Take good care of your brother and live.
Our family line must live on.

Grandma...

Grandma is going to die.
- You can't die!

Spring chicken?
- A little virgin!

Come over here.

Grandma save me!

John... run quickly!

Grandma come and save me!
- Run!

Grandma...

Get out!

Never come back!

Grandma!

Grandma... open the door!

Grandma!

Grandma... save me!
