    Reader note

    Why is "Not a Single Japanese Soldier Allowed to Live" worth reading? —A heartfelt recommendation from a reader. I rarely recommend novels. It's not because I'm afraid of making the wrong recommendation and losing face, but because I feel that reading is too personal—what you like, others may not. But this time is different. This time I want to say: if you love war stories, if you're fed up with those exaggerated anti-Japanese war dramas, if you want to see what real soldiers are like, then "Not a Single Japanese Soldier Allowed to Live" is worth your time. Not because it's particularly exciting—although it is indeed quite exciting. It's because it reminded me of the stories my grandfather told me when I was a child. First, there are real people here, not paper heroes. Let's start with the three Fu brothers. The eldest brother, Fu Shuiheng, is a transmigrator, a military engineering PhD in his previous life. This setting seems like a cheat code, but the author didn't let him have it. He knows the principles of gun manufacturing, but he still has to lead his brothers through trial and error; he knows what will happen in the future, but he can't change the life and death situation in front of him. His strength lies not in foresight, but in steadfastness—when everyone said "it can't be built," he squatted in the repair shop, trying again and again with Old Zheng. The second brother, Fu Yihai, was the political commissar. This is my favorite character. Initially, his attitude towards the Japanese prisoners was the most common attitude of that era: "None of the Japanese are good." But when he witnessed a young Japanese man about to commit seppuku and heard Kobayashi say, "My mother taught me that people should have humanity," he fell silent. That long conversation that night transformed him from a simple avenger into a true revolutionary. Later, he led the winter training camp to Laojun Peak, where temperatures were minus forty degrees Celsius. His toes turned purple from the cold, and he lost several nails, but he gritted his teeth and led more than two hundred men in training for three months. He said, "I am the political commissar. If I don't take the lead, who will?" The third brother, Fu Yihui, was the chief of staff and the narrator of this book. He was the one who stood by and watched, but his perspective made everything more real. He saw his eldest brother's persistence, his second brother's transformation, and the soldiers' sacrifices, and he recorded them all. Sometimes he would say, "I don't know," and sometimes he would say, "This is all I can write." It is precisely these "I don't know" and "I can only" that make the characters stand out—they are not gods, but human beings. And then there are the supporting characters: Old Zheng, the repair shop chief, with exceptional skills and a clear conscience; Kenichiro Kobayashi of the anti-war alliance, whose seventeen scars prove that "not all Japanese want to be beasts"; and Shi Potian, the reconnaissance squad leader, who fights fearlessly but whose eyes redden when he sees fallen soldiers, saying, "I'm useless." These people are all flesh and blood. As you read, you'll feel like you know them. Secondly, this book presents real warfare, without glorifying or belittling the Japanese soldiers, who are not the paper tigers that crumble at the slightest touch. The "Snow Wolf" special forces, transferred from the Kwantung Army, wear white camouflage uniforms and skis, appearing like ghosts in the snow. In their first encounter, twenty-three of them were killed, while five were eliminated—a casualty ratio of one to four. Our eldest brother, Fu Shuiheng, was seriously wounded and almost didn't survive. This is real warfare. Not tearing apart Japanese soldiers with bare hands, not hiding grenades in one's crotch. It's a true life-or-death struggle, a true exchange of lives. But it was precisely because the Japanese were strong that our victory was so valuable. To deal with the "Snow Wolves," the entire brigade selected 263 key personnel and sent them to Laojunding in northern Shanxi, where they trained for three months in temperatures of minus forty degrees Celsius. They learned to ski, falling and bruising themselves; they practiced wilderness survival, starving until their eyes turned green; they slept in tents, huddled together for warmth. Three months later, 251 men returned alive. Political Commissar Fu Yihai lost his toenails to frostbite and walked with a limp. But he said, "Toenails can grow back, but the skills we learned cannot be taken away by the Japanese." Later, in that battle, all 160 men of the "Snow Wolves" were annihilated. How did they win? Not by luck, but by the skills they gained with their lives over those three months. This book tells me: victory doesn't fall from the sky, it's forged in blood. III. There is genuine reflection here, no slogans, no labeling. What moved me most was episode 52. Three Japanese soldiers voluntarily surrendered, one of whom was a student of Yamamoto Ichiki. Political Commissar Fu Yihai strongly objected: "Would the Japanese surrender voluntarily? I think they're just scared and looking for a way to survive!" But those three Japanese soldiers were all different. One had seventeen scars on his body, from refusing to kill Chinese civilians; another was falsely accused of rape by his superior and preferred seppuku to taking the blame; the third, a medical student, shot himself in the foot to avoid killing. Fu Yihai talked with them all night. Afterwards, standing in the snow, he said, "I always thought that the Japanese were just Japanese, not a single one of them good. But today I realize that there are some Japanese who don't want to be Japanese." This wasn't whitewashing the Japanese invaders. It was saying: war is one thing, humanity is another. Those farmers, workers, and students forcibly conscripted were also victims of militarism. We must learn to distinguish between those who deserve to die and those who can be saved when we kill the Japanese. Later, Kobayashi and his comrades became members of the anti-war alliance, learned Chinese, learned to sing "The Internationale," and learned to shout "The Eighth Route Army treats prisoners of war well." The first Chinese character Watanabe Ichiro learned to write was "" (rén, meaning "person"). After writing it, he looked up and asked, "Section Chief Liu, is this the character ''?" Liu Mingyuan nodded. Watanabe looked at the character and smiled: "I can write '' now. I am a person." Reading this, my eyes welled up with tears. IV. Real Growth Here, Not Something That Happens Overnight. Everyone in this book changes. Fu Yihai transformed from a vengeful figure who wanted to kill all the Japanese soldiers into a promoter of the anti-war alliance. His transformation didn't happen overnight; it happened little by little. The first time he heard Kobayashi's story, he remained silent; the second time, during a long late-night conversation, he wavered; the third time, seeing the young Japanese man about to commit seppuku, he rushed to stop him. In the end, he became the leader of a winter training camp, leading over two hundred people in three months of training in the freezing cold with frostbitten feet. Fu Yihui transformed from a chief of staff who only understood technology into a commander capable of independent command. He recorded every battle, every fallen soldier, and every memorable event. He said, "As long as we remember, someone else will remember." Fu Shuiheng transformed from a time traveler with knowledge from the future into a brigade commander truly integrated into this land. He no longer thought about distant things, only about the present—how to reduce the number of soldiers killed, how to make the army stronger, and how to wipe out the "Snow Wolves" without exception. And those soldiers: from not knowing how to ski to being able to speed across the snow, from not knowing how to survive in the wild to being able to catch fish in icy rivers, from envying the Japanese to being able to distinguish which Japanese soldiers should be killed and which could be saved. They were changing, growing, and undergoing a complete transformation. This is why this book is worth reading—because it's about people, not gods; it's about growth, not cheat codes; it's about reality, not fantasy. V. In conclusion, my grandfather fought the Japanese. When I was little, listening to him tell those stories always felt distant. But while reading this book, I suddenly remembered the stories he told—marching through snowy nights, eating tree bark when starving, rubbing snow on frostbite, squatting in front of his comrades' graves after battle, smoking without saying a word. That was real war. That was a true warrior. This book is about them. If you enjoy war stories, if you want to read real stories of the War of Resistance against Japan, if you want to get to know a group of flesh-and-blood people, then "Not a Single Japanese Soldier Can Be Left Alive" is worth your time. It's not about thrills—though it certainly is. It's about remembering. Remember those who struggled to survive in the snow, remember those who walked for three months with frostbitten feet, remember those who smiled after learning to write the character for "person." Remember them, just as Fu Yihui said—"As long as we remember, someone else will remember." That's enough.
