There was still half a breath left but he was not dead yet. The veteran immediately became angry.
"Dare you pretend to be dead?" After the veteran said this, he was slapped hard on the head and face.
The officers and soldiers of the Independent Regiment will not have any mercy towards the Japanese.
Wang Husheng, who was standing on the hill, couldn't stand it anymore, so he came down to stop him and said, "Okay, don't fight. If you fight again, someone will die."
"It's better if you beat him to death. These bastard Japs deserve to die." The veteran still couldn't understand his hatred. After speaking, he waved his armed belt and slapped the little Japs on the back twice.
"Stop, stop it quickly." Wang Husheng quickly stopped him.
"Captain." The veteran immediately turned to Xu Rui for help.
Xu Rui took the time to fold up and put away the award box from Yan'an, then walked down with his hands behind his back and said to the veteran: "I didn't hear what the political commissar said just now. You are not allowed to beat or scold prisoners of war."
"What?" The veteran was confused when he heard this.
Wang Husheng turned around and looked at Xu Rui approvingly. That was right.
Unexpectedly, Xu Rui changed the subject and continued: "If you beat these devils to death, who will dig coal for us, build roads for us, and build fortifications for us?"
The veteran was stunned when he heard this: "Oh, yes, yes, yes."
Wang Husheng's face immediately darkened, and he said in a deep voice: "What's right? The Geneva Convention clearly prohibits the abuse of prisoners, and we people will not abuse prisoners."
Xu Rui frowned and said, "Political commissar, digging coal, building roads and building fortifications, doesn't that count as abuse?"
Wang Husheng retorted: "Ordering prisoners of war to do things against their will is abuse."
"My political commissar, what do you think, should we treat these Japanese prisoners of war as ancestors?" Xu Rui said angrily, "provide them with good food and drink every day?"
"Old Xu." Wang Husheng sighed and said, "I have said enough about the pros and cons of preferential treatment of prisoners of war. It is better not to kill these Japanese prisoners of war than to kill them, and preferential treatment is more beneficial than mistreatment, because this batch of Japanese prisoners of war is better not to kill them than to kill them."
After prisoners of war receive preferential treatment, more Japanese will be influenced and it will be more conducive to our united front work."
Xu Rui said: "Political Commissar, I understand everything you said, but the problem is that we have captured too many Japanese prisoners of war this time. There are more than 5,000 prisoners of war now. When they are all captured, there will be no need to say more."
With more than 10,000 people and so many Japanese prisoners of war, can we give them preferential treatment? We have no choice but to centralize their custody and management."
Wang Husheng nodded and said: "Centralized detention and centralized management are fine, but beating, scolding, and corporal punishment are strictly prohibited, and food supply must be ensured as a priority. Even if we treat our own soldiers badly, we must not treat prisoners of war badly."
Upon hearing Wang Husheng's words, the veterans nearby immediately refused.
"What do you mean, food supply should be given priority to the Japanese? Is there any other way to do this?"
"As long as we don't kill these dogs, we should also prioritize ensuring their food rations?"
"Political Commissar, are you still the political commissar of our independent group? Why are you turning your elbows outward?"
The veterans were furious, but Wang Husheng did not give in. He said sternly: "What are you arguing about? Do you want to rebel?"
Wang Husheng was usually a good man, but his prestige was not very high. When he suddenly got angry, the dozen or so veterans around him immediately became speechless.
Wang Husheng hummed again and said, "Go and bring a bucket of water quickly."
The two veterans yelled and reluctantly went to carry a bucket of water.
Seeing a whole bucket of water, the Japanese prisoners of war, who had been sluggish just now, suddenly became energetic and rushed towards the bucket with a roar. The Japanese prisoner of war who rushed forward directly buried his head in the bucket.
After a long drink, the Japanese prisoners behind were half a step too slow and could only scoop water with their hands to drink.
The Japanese in the back could only scream around the bucket, with anxious expressions on their faces.
Wang Husheng asked someone to bring more than a dozen buckets of water to solve the problem.
After drinking a lot of water, the spirits of the fifty or so Japanese prisoners of war immediately lifted up a lot. One of the Japanese prisoners of war actually tried to grab the gun. Fortunately, the veteran reacted quickly enough, dodged it, and hit the butt of the gun with his backhand.
The Japanese prisoner of war was knocked to the ground, and the remaining Japanese prisoners of war exploded immediately upon seeing this.
The officers and soldiers of the nearby independent regiment quickly came over for reinforcements, and then a melee broke out.
After a while, the whole situation was under control again. More than fifty Japanese were forced to lie down on the ground with their heads in hands. Any Japanese who dared to get up was immediately slapped on the head and face. However, in the melee just now, Wang Husheng was injured.
The Japanese prisoner of war snatched the bayonet from the chaos and stabbed Wang Husheng in the arm.
Fortunately, no serious injuries were caused, and Wang Husheng tried to persuade Xu Rui not to take revenge for this.
Xu Rui said: "Political Commissar, please go back and bandage it first, and leave it to me first."
Wang Husheng repeatedly warned: "Old Xu, you must not retaliate against these prisoners of war because of my injury. Since these prisoners of war have been disarmed, this war has nothing to do with them. We should give them the most basic humanity."
We must not kill at will in order to safeguard our doctrine."
"I know, I know, you can go back first." Xu Rui agreed.
Wang Husheng felt relieved and went to the health team to bandage the wound.
As soon as Wang Husheng left, Xu Rui immediately changed his face and shouted sternly: "Leizi, take someone to bring me all the Japanese prisoners of war. I want to focus on interrogating them."
As soon as they heard that Xu Rui was going to interrogate Japanese prisoners of war, the surrounding veterans immediately became excited.
The group leader must be of the same mind as them. The political commissar is good, but too old-fashioned.
Lei Xiang responded with a bang, and immediately took people to a mountain col not far away, and drove over all the Japanese prisoners of war captured in the past two days. So far, the independent regiment has captured more than 6,000 prisoners of war, but most of them are
There were non-combatants in the Engineer Regiment, Field Artillery Regiment and Troop Regiment, and there were not many Japanese in the Infantry Regiment.
On the issue of how to treat Japanese prisoners of war, Xu Rui and Wang Husheng had serious disagreements.
Wang Husheng's opinion is actually the party's consistent purpose, that even Japanese prisoners of war should receive preferential treatment.
China's policy of preferential treatment of prisoners is definitely not a fabrication for the sake of glory, nor is it a fiction to put money on itself. It is an established policy that has been consistently implemented since the Red Army period. The reason for this policy of preferential treatment of prisoners is that there are other reasons for this policy.
profound historical and political background.
Because in the early days of the Great Revolution, the armed forces of the Kuomintang were still very weak and had to strengthen themselves by absorbing veterans of the Kuomintang army, so the reform policy of preferential treatment of prisoners was adopted.
The penitentiary policy of preferential treatment of prisoners played a vital role during the Great Revolution and the War of Liberation. Especially during the War of Liberation, inspired by the policy of preferential treatment of prisoners, the prisoners of war of the Kuomintang army could even be directly added to the People's Liberation Army as supplementary soldiers.
Therefore, in the Battle of Huaihai, only 600,000 People's Liberation Army troops were able to annihilate 800,000 Kuomintang troops.
Without the reform policy of preferential treatment of prisoners, no matter how powerful Mr. Su was, he would never have been able to annihilate the 800,000 Kuomintang troops with the 600,000 People's Liberation Army.
However, the prisoners of war during the Great Revolution and the War of Liberation were all Chinese, and both sides shared the same culture and race. However, the prisoners of war now are Japanese. The two cannot be compared at all.
However, in the original time and space, the policy of preferential treatment for Japanese prisoners of war was still adhered to, and it did play a certain role in influencing many prisoners of war. Among the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army, there were even soldiers borrowed from Japan. However, it needs to be pointed out Yes, there are actually better and more beneficial countermeasures against Japanese prisoners of war.
As a time-traveler, Xu Rui understands the bad national character of little Japan better than any Chinese of this era.
Little Japan, like the human race, has dog-like habits in its bones. If you are stronger than it, it will beg for mercy, and it will be docile than a dog. If you are weaker than it, tell it some humane etiquette, it will It will become ten times more ferocious than the wolf, so there is really no need to talk about humanity when it comes to humans, just kill them!
If you are afraid of the human race, they will kneel down and lick your toes like a dog.
Isn't it because the Americans dropped two atomic bombs on Nagasaki and Hiroshima, killing hundreds of thousands of Japanese people?
So Xu Rui didn't intend to tell the Japanese prisoners of war about the Geneva Convention.
After a while, more than 6,000 Japanese prisoners of war were all escorted into the valley.
However, in order to prevent the Japanese from causing trouble, more than 6,000 Japanese soldiers were separated into more than a dozen square blocks by the officers and soldiers of the independent regiment.
There are more than 500 Japanese in each square. Xu Rui plans to interrogate these Japanese prisoners of war one by one. Those who find that their hands are stained with Chinese blood will be shot on the spot. The remaining prisoners of war such as artillerymen, engineers, and heavy equipment soldiers will be shot on the spot. If you stay as a coolie, you can never expect to return to Japan alive.
The first group of Japanese prisoners of war in the first square were brought up.
Xu Ruilingjun's eyes swept over a dozen Japs and asked: "It doesn't count killing enemies on the battlefield. Have you ever killed ordinary Chinese people?"
Xu Rui speaks Japanese, which can be understood by more than a dozen Japanese.
Immediately, a Japanese soldier Cao replied loudly with a ferocious smile: "Kill them, and kill dozens of them."
Xu Rui nodded, turned around and ordered Lei Xiang: "Lei Zi, pull this guy down and shoot him on the spot."
Lei Xiang immediately stepped forward, grabbed the Japs Sergeant and walked aside, then pulled out the cannon and put it against the back of the Japs Sergeant's head, then pulled the trigger. Hearing a beep, there was a gunshot on the Japs Sergeant's forehead. A bloody hole the size of a fist opened, and then he fell straight forward and fell into a pool of blood.
Seeing this scene, the more than 6,000 Japanese prisoners of war in the valley immediately fell silent.
Xu Rui really wasn't afraid of these Japs making trouble, because there were dozens of heavy machine guns mounted on the hills on both sides. If the Japs dared to make trouble, Xu Rui would have justifiable reasons to kill them all.
Xu Rui's cold eyes fell on the face of the second Japanese again and asked: "What about you?"
The Japanese didn't dare to look Xu Rui in the eyes and said nonchalantly: "I, I, I, I killed more than a dozen Chinese soldiers on the battlefield, but I have never killed ordinary people."
Xu Rui nodded and motioned to Lei Xiang: "Take him down, it seems."
