December 16th, 1937.
This was a day worth remembering in history. Not only was it a declaration, but hundreds of newspapers in the country also published photos from Jinling and Qin Tian's original words.
Hundreds of international newspapers also published it, such as reuters, citigroup daily, the times, bali daily, bolin daily, hairy bear workers newspaper, and other global newspapers.
Less than an hour after the newspaper was published, the Wei Nation suddenly became the target of public criticism. All kinds of accusations and curses swept over the country, letting the Japanese know what it meant to be a rat crossing the street.
The Western countries, which emphasized respect for human rights, were in an uproar. They used all kinds of sharp articles to describe the Wei Nation as animals and beasts, and some schools even began to expel foreign students from the Wei Nation.
Panic!
The Wei Nation panicked!
The emergency meeting of the Jingdou cabinet was in progress.
Hirohito roared angrily," Damn it! Our Great Japan Empire's reputation has plummeted. Many western countries, including America, have been pressured to ban the export of resources to us. How can we continue the war without resources?”
The Prime Minister, Fumihito, lowered his head and said nothing. He wanted to push the blame to the Minister of War. After all, he was also afraid that Hirohito would dismiss him if he did not agree.
The Minister of Land Affairs sighed."" Your Majesty, the only way we can salvage this situation is to stop Prince Hashihiko of the Asaka Palace and eliminate Qin Tian, the culprit. Otherwise, China might be forced to gather an army to counterattack Jinling. There are less than 200,000 troops in Central China. If the Chinese army counterattacks with the flames of revenge..."
"Order the fleet to seal off Nagaoka. Order Asakamiya and Matsui Ishigen to destroy Qin Tian within three days. Do not harm any Chinese civilians on the surface.”
"Hey, there's still one more thing that needs Your Majesty to decide!”
"Speak!"
"The western countries are requesting to send reporters into Jinling.”

Hirohito sighed as he leaned back in his chair. He had been strangled by Qin Tian. He had been bolstering his courage to invade China. After all, there were so many people in China, several times more than them.
If they wanted to occupy this land permanently, they would have to assimilate the people of the Celestial Dynasty, or they would fall into endless resistance.
The massacre in Jinling was the fuse. If the people of China thought that they would be massacred if they were occupied and decided to fight to the death, then the war would be difficult to fight!
"Let them pass. Tell the frontline troops to restrain themselves. Don't add fuel to the fire when the storm is at its peak.”
"Hey!"
……
Wu Khan set up camp.
Chang Kaishen looked at the newspaper in his hand, and cold sweat dripped down his forehead. Not only was the Wei Nation in the center of the fishing boats, but he was also cursed by some newspapers, saying that he had abandoned Jinling and caused the city to be massacred.
Of course, there was also Tang Shengzhi, the sinner who had been scolded by all eighteen generations of ancestors.
"Chairman, what should we do?" He Yingqin asked. Is it a counterattack?"
"No, we can't counterattack!"
Before Chang Kaishen could say anything, Bai Chongxi shook his head in denial.
"We just received news that the Japanese should have locked down Changyi. They clearly want to burn Qin Tian to ashes. We can't rush over without warships and air force. Qin Tian and his anti-Japanese army are destined to be surrounded and annihilated in Jinling.”
"However, he is a hero. He used his actions to tell the world and the 400 million people that China will never yield. We should respond with support and give them the honor they deserve.”
Chang Kaishen put down the newspaper and took a deep breath."Qin Tian is the heir of the Qin family, a famous family in Wuhan. His father, Qin Xiong, is Mr. Sun's savior. The Qin Financial Group has also sponsored us a lot these years, so…"
"A lieutenant general?"
“……”
He Yingqin, Bai Chongxi, Chen Cheng, and the others were speechless. He was really generous, calling himself a lieutenant general.
A 26-year-old lieutenant general was a first.
But no one refuted either, because Qin Tian was dead for sure in their eyes. Just consider it posthumous.
It was fine even if he was posthumously promoted to a general after he died. After all, he was already dead.
Seeing that no one refuted him, Chang Kaishen ordered,""The former commander of the 3rd Battalion of the 2nd Regiment of the Teaching Corps, Major Qin Tian, will be promoted to the lieutenant general of the National Revolutionary Army's Japanese Destroyer Legion. The officers under you will arrange for the promotion of their ranks to the appropriate range.”
"Yes, sir!"
After the order was announced, Chang Kaishen sighed and said,"This Qin Tian is a talent. If he can leave Jinling alive, I will definitely put him in an important position.”
"Chairman, the fact that he chose to fight the Japanese in Jinling means that he has the intention to sacrifice his life for the country. We can't let the blood of a hero flow in vain. We must take this opportunity to ask the western powers for loans and support. We must guard Xuzhou, the eastern gate of the Wuhan, and then drag the Japanese into a protracted war…to drag them down!”
"Alright, I'll leave this matter to you!”
