黄河文明を淵源とする中華文明には戦争にいっさいの制限がないという性格をもっていることは、第二章で明らかにされました。
まず春秋時代367年間に諸侯の間の戦争は448回に達し、戦国時代182年間のあいだには大規模な戦争だけでも224回が記録されています。
「京観」(けいかん)とは、戦争に勝った将領が武功を誇るため、敵の戦死者の屍を大路の両側に積み上げ、土を重ねた金字塔のことですが、この習慣は古代からすでに始まっていたといいます。
「坑」(こう)(生き埋め)という言葉は『史記』によく出てくるそうです。なかでもすごいのが秦将白起が投降した趙軍40万を全員穴埋めにした例です。
王朝の交代期に於ける籠城戦では「共食い」が頻発したことが記録されているといいます。共食いの場合「易子」が普通に行われたといいます。つまり、子供をお互いに交換して、それを食べるという方式です。「食人文化」は唐の時代がその最盛期といいます。
その後に来る「屠城」では凄惨な皆殺しが行われます。南京は6世紀建康と呼ばれていた時代以来、何回にもわたって屠城=大虐殺が行われました。この伝統的な自らの「屠城」「虐殺文化」をもとにでっち上げられたのが、日本軍によるいわゆる「南京大虐殺」であることはいうまでもありません。自らの甲羅に似せてほった穴が「南京虐殺物語」にほかなりません。

KO BUN’YU’S DEFINING HISTORY
A macroscopic analysis of the differences among the histories of
East Asian nations: Japan, China, Taiwan, and Korea
No.4- Chapter 3 The Brutal History of Chinese Warfare
The Chinese civilization, whose source was the Yellow River civilization, placed no restrictions whatsoever on warfare. From this basic nature, Chinese warfare became extremely brutal one throughout its history.
During the 367-year Spring and Autumn period (BC 770 – 403), the major powers clashed 448 times. Wars became even more frequent during the Warring States period (BC 404 -221), and also larger in scale. There were 222 major battles, and countless skirmishes.
Long, drawn-out siege warfare caused cannibalism. This took place especially at the time of the end of one dynasty and the beginning of another.
The Tang dynasty was the golden age of cannibalism. Cannibalism was widespread according to historical records and was practiced by the occupants of fortresses under siege. One-third of all incidents of cannibalism from Chinese history occurred during this period. This was also the time when human flesh and internal organs came to be viewed as having curative powers. Human flesh was sold openly--humans were captured, killed, and eaten.
Nanjing-style massacres took place over and over again. Near the end of the Qing dynasty when Nanjing fell, Andrew Wilson wrote in The Ever-Victorious Army the following:
On entering, the people were found dead in the streets by hundreds. They had been reduced to the last extremity; for human flesh had been sold as their food at 40 cash per catty, or one penny per pound; and it is worthy of note that, almost at the same time, the Imperialists besieged in Hangchow were reduced to the same dreadful extremity.
The story of the so-called Nanjing Massacre perpetrated by the Japanese army is merely a Chinese projection of their own gruesome history onto the Japanese.
