"General Mattsui lwane, Commander of the Japanese Expeditionary Forces in Central China." "Although killing is unavoidable in warfare." "We still must observe Intemational law." "The Emperor's directive did not mention international law." "It's unnecessary to point that out." "In the Emperor's directive for the Japanese-Russian and Ching Dynasty wars they all mentioned observing Intemational 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."

"Wherever you are you have to act with integrity to have a good life." "If our Empire is successful our lives will naturally be beautiful." "If ourcounty's integrity is intact then our personal integrity is not imporrtant." "Especially from a long term and historical point of view." "We're talking about histoy now?" "The winnerwrites 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 he invasion of Nanking." "Both of you must respect General Matsui Iwane." " We respect him but he shouldn't restrict ourtroops." "With too many restrictions how can we fight?" " He is an older soldier." "His words are reasonable." "If you were fighting in the trenches nstead of sitting in a sanatorrium." "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 fairfor him to criticize us this way." "He just sees victory." "The enemy fought desperately." "It was a battle inch by inch."

"Why did they bring you here?" "To do some laborwork." "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 orderto 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." "Sooneror 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 theirthinking?" "Everyone must act his role." "So during the meeting, I allowed them al 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 theirown thoughts." "They both have guts too." "Even though I am their commander, they're not shy in front of me."
