will inevitably bring about a series of disasters. As long as the country is caught in the war, the residents of that country may not be spared. War is an extremely resource-consuming thing, and countless people in a country will pay the price of their lives for this war.
World War II is a war that is remembered by the whole world. In this war, our country was invaded by Japan. Near Nanjing, hundreds of thousands of people were killed. It can be said that during that period of time, the people of our country were frightened. Live, I am afraid that someday the bad news of relatives and friends will be mentioned. Fortunately, the Chinese People's League came together, which allowed us to have the life we are today.
However, although our country was seriously injured, the Japanese side paid a considerable price for this war. But as to how many people Japan has lost in this war, the true figures are hard to believe, and there has been controversy in the international arena. At that time, Japan was the source of World War II in Asia, so after Japan's defeat, both economically and military were hit hard. Out of national circumstance, after the end of World War II, the Chinese people naturally hope that the number of casualties in the Japanese army is as high as possible, but it is often because of this circumstance that various institutions in our country will report various statistics when counting the number of casualties in Japan. And these figures are released at different times, so these figures are basically getting bigger and bigger, and the masses are also very confused when looking at these chaotic figures.
In fact, these figures lack authority. The most objective statistics on the number of casualties in Japan during World War II should be the Japanese Ministry of Health and Welfare. This department is equivalent to the combination of the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the Ministry of Health of our country. Therefore, the data collected by this department is authoritative. After the end of World War II, the Ministry of Health and Welfare gave a total of three figures. These three figures refer to the number of casualties in Japan, but the release time is different. The first number of
is 1.85 million, which is the direct death toll of Japanese soldiers during World War II. The second number is 2.12 million. This number includes the number of direct deaths in Japan, plus Japanese soldiers who died after the end of the war, including those who died in Soviet prisoner-of-war camps and those who died seriously injured in Japan. The third number is 2.32 million. This number includes the death toll of the Japanese regular army, plus the casualties of the Japanese military. The Japanese military is similar to the Chinese militia. Although they are not regular, they also have their own armaments, so they are also considered a class of arms.
But for this number, many people find it unbelievable. How can there be only these deaths in Japan? But the fact is true. The Ministry of Health, Welfare and Welfare is very serious about the statistics of this number. Every number can be found. The birthplace, life, interpersonal relationship, etc. of each of these two million people are recorded, even in that battle. All deaths were recorded.
This is mainly because the Japanese attach great importance to the war dead. Generally, the body of the war dead will be brought back. Even if it cannot be brought back, his nails or hair will be brought back to the family of the dead. In addition, the people in the same area of Japan are basically in the same force. Therefore, if someone is killed in battle but not reported, the family members will also give their opinions.
Judging from the above points, the number of deaths calculated by the Ministry of Health and Welfare should be correct. Although, as a Chinese, I feel a little dissatisfied with such a small number of casualties, but that war has passed. What we should do more is to remember the lessons and be better ourselves.
