15 Bloody Battles to Annihilate the Japanese Army (1)
About This Novel
The word "Jade Broken" comes from the "Book of Northern Qi", and the original text is "A man would rather be a broken jade than a piece of brick." Our country has a proverb "Shattered Jade in Kungang", which also uses "Shattered Jade" as a symbol of perseverance. However, after the beginning of the Pacific War, this term was misinterpreted and borrowed by the Japanese army to beautify the battle in which the entire Japanese army refused to surrender and was annihilated by the Allied forces. There are a total of 15 "Jade Broken Wars" officially recognized by Japan. Usually the upper echelons of the Japanese army, knowing that the war situation was irreversible, still relied on Hideki Tojo's so-called "Battle Training" and "Bushido" ideas, and when it was possible to save their lives by surrendering or retreating, they kidnapped lower-level officers and soldiers and resisted until they were all wiped out. The Japanese army would often require their troops to "break their weapons" in the form of orders before and during combat. Japanese military law even directly prohibited commanders from leading their troops to lay down their weapons in the event of defeat, otherwise they would be punished as "dereliction of duty."
