万人冢(Mass Graves)
1941年3月，日寇侵占海门港后，施行“三光”政策。烧毁民房1400多间，焚烧渔船460多艘。惨遭日寇烧死、沉尸砍头，活埋及锇死者达17000多人。原50000余人口的集镇仅存18000多人（死者17000余；逃荒者15000余）。抗战胜利后，由慈善机构将遇难者骨骸集中埋葬于莲花峰下，树碑永记。
Mass Graves  In March 1941, Japanese invaders occupied Haimen Port. Under the savage policy of slaughtering all the people, robbing and destroyed all the houses, over 1400 houses and 460 fishing boats were burnt out, and more than 17,000 people were beheaded, or buried alive, or burnt to death, or died of starvation. The town used to have a population of 50,000, among which 17,000 were killed and 15000 fled from famine, only 18,000 survived. After the Anti-Japanese War, the dead victims were rounded up and buried together here at the foot of Lotus Peak. Thus this monument was set up by a charity in commemortion of the dead. |
