"Qian Shouyi, you are a man of Dagan! You hold an official position, you are the people's guardian! How can you betray Dagan and surrender to those Japanese!"
"Have you lost all your conscience?!"
Qian Shouyi's face gradually darkened, but soon he roared:
"Song Ke, don't be ungrateful!"
"I advised the adults in Japan not to launch a direct attack because I was doing this for your own good."
"Otherwise, the city of Linbin will be plunged into chaos and death!"
"Song Ke, stop spouting those high-sounding platitudes. If you don't want the city to be awash in blood, then be sensible and stop resisting."
"You can't afford the consequences of angering the adults!"
Song Ke's anger was almost bursting out! Without the slightest hesitation, he turned and shouted at the soldiers in the inner city:

"I, Ono Jiro, hereby declare this! This is my promise to you and to everyone in the city!"
Immediately, he turned to the soldiers behind him and shouted:
"If they don't resist, no one is allowed to lay a hand on them! Anyone who dares to kill indiscriminately will be the first to have their head chopped off!!!"
