The Study On The Bombing And Its Influence Of Japanese On American And British Organizations And Personnel In China(1937-1941)

During the war of resistance against Japan,in the strategic bombing of China by the invading Japanese army,the American and British institutions and personnel in China as special non-military targets were also widely bombed.The bombing of American and British institutions and personnel in China by the invading Japanese army was a barbaric atrocity in violation of international law and humanitarian principles,an important part of Japan's indiscriminate bombing of China,and one of the bloody crimes of the war of aggression by Japanese militarism.The bombing of the Japanese army against the US and British institutions in China has the characteristics of long duration,wide coverage and great damage.The bombing time ranged from the start of the comprehensive anti-Japanese war in July 1937 to the start of the Pacific War in December 1941,the bombing area covered most of China's provinces.The bombing of different types of institutions by the Japanese aircraft also showed different characteristics of time and space distribution,the bombing of diplomatic institutions was mainly concentrate on the embassies and consulates in Nanjing in 1937,Chongqing in 1939-1941 and Kunming in 1941;church institutions have been bombed for the longest time,up to 4 years and 3 months,the most widely distributed,and the bombing traces spread across 21 provinces;economic,military and other property bombings were concentrated in 14 provinces from 1937-1939.This large-scale bombing of Japanese aircraft has caused heavy casualties and losses of spiritual and material property to US and British institutions in China,which has greatly impaired the rights and interests of the United States and Britain in China.The bombing of American and British institutions in China by the invading Japanese army intensified,creating many cases that shocked the world and had a far-reaching impact.The bombing of ambassador Hugessen,the bombing of the American Christian hospital in Nantong,and the bombing of the ladybird are all strong evidence of the Japanese military's illegal persecution of American and British assets inChina and the bloody slaughter of American and British citizens in China.On the one hand,this was the result of the appeasement policy of the United States and Britain towards Japan,on the other hand,it also laid a foreshadowing for the later changes of the policies of the United States and Britain towards Japan,supporting China's Anti-Japanese War and joining the world anti-fascist alliance.The bombing of American and British institutions in China by the Japanese military has aroused widespread concern in China and the international community.China stands in the same position that was also suffering from Japanese bombing,actively supports the bombed US and British institutions in China,and strives for the United States and Britain to join the Chinese aid Japanese camp.International organizations and countries from all walks of life shocked by the inhumane massacre atrocities of the invading Japanese army,have voiced their condemnation of the Japanese aggressors indiscriminate bombing atrocities,pointed out that the Japanese aggressors devoid of the crime of world civilization.Faced with the destruction of their interests in China,the United States and Britain have launched strong protests from all walks of life.The US and British governments also made representations to Japan many times,hoping to stop the illegal and inhumane indiscriminate bombing by the Japanese army,and gradually embarked on the road of comprehensive sanctions against Japan.This thesis intends to make full use of the existing historical data to fully reveal the various aspects of the Japanese bombing of US and British institutions in China,and to expose the brutality and inhumanity of the Japanese indiscriminate bombing,so as to enrich the historical evidence of Japanese aggression war,and hope to take history as a mirror for the future.
