    After the massacre in Vietnam ended, I joined the entire 50th Brigade in the Battle of Malaysia, the Battle of Indonesia, the Battle of Ceylon (Sri Lanka), and the Battle of Madagascar (the largest island in Africa). Our 50th Brigade  Because the brigade killed so many people while suppressing the Vietnamese rebellion, we were all aware of death, so later we were very brave in the battle, and none of us were afraid of death, and the whole brigade had a brilliant record.  Our brigade commander Liu Yi was gradually promoted from colonel to army lieutenant general, while I accumulated merit and became captain and company commander.  But during the landing battle in South Africa in early 1941, four fingers on my right hand were blown off by a mortar shell from the South African Army. After receiving treatment, I had to retire and return home on the supply ship "Xingkai Lake".  After returning to my hometown in Siping City, I was arranged by the local government to work in a factory for disabled military personnel. I retired when I was sixty and now receive a monthly disability allowance of 1,400 yuan (Chinese dollars).  In the company of his grandson, he enjoys his life happily.  

    The memories of veteran Li Yi allow us to touch upon the dark period that was swept by the bloody storm half a century ago. During that period of nightmare and purgatory for the entire Vietnamese people, the Northeastern Border Guards of China were in the original Thirteenth Province of Vietnam.  That period of cruel history that the central government and the military have so far tabooed can be restored to some extent.  Our hearts were deeply shaken.  At the end of the interview, the author had the following conversation with veteran Li Yi¡ª¡ª

    Author: "Mr. Li, I have a question. Did Commander-in-Chief Zhang Xueliang directly order the Northeast Frontier Army to carry out large-scale extermination of Vietnamese people? There are still many different opinions in the historical academic community. What do you personally think?  Woolen cloth?"

    Veteran Li Yi (thought for a moment): "It's hard for me to answer this question. I was only a first-class soldier back then, and I was too far away from Commander-in-Chief Zhang and other high-level headquarters. I can't say for sure. However, I can be very sure.  To put it bluntly, Commander-in-Chief Zhang¡¯s attitude was definitely not against it, but even tacit approval and encouragement. Because after the massacre was exposed, there was an overwhelming wave of verbal and written criticism from all walks of life at home and abroad, but Commander-in-Chief Zhang only gave the deputy director of the Central and South Military Region  The commander-in-chief, Lieutenant General Liu Duoquan, was given a serious punishment and symbolically dismissed from his position as deputy commander-in-chief of the Central and South Military Region. However, he was quickly appointed as acting deputy commander-in-chief. Lieutenant General Liu Duoquan later had a prosperous official career.  , was promoted to the second-level general before retiring; and our brigade commander, Colonel Liu Yi, his military rank and military affairs were also blossoming, and he was already a lieutenant general before we started the war with the Soviet Union. If Commander-in-Chief Zhang really  If we want to punish them, it is impossible for their military ranks to be promoted so quickly and so smoothly."

    Author: "Mr. Li, I also want to ask you a question. That is, you personally killed so many Vietnamese civilians, including women and children. Do you have any conscience now?"

    Veteran Li Yi (laughing loudly): "To tell you the truth, every reporter, writer, internet writer, military enthusiast, etc. who has interviewed me before will ask this question at the end, but I never have the answer.  Change! I have never had an uneasy conscience, never! When you ask me this question, I also want to ask you, why should I have an uneasy conscience? Just because they are women and children? Wrong! You people who come after you only treat your eyes with  Focusing on their status as "women and children", they then self-righteously used various ethics and morals to criticize our behavior back then, and each one of them was as plausible as if they had the benefit of hindsight. But have you ever thought that they are not only women and children?  , they are also soldiers! They are warriors! They can also shoot bullets and spears into the hearts of our brothers when we are too careless to shoot! They can also take away the lives of our brothers! In addition to  In addition to direct combat, they also actively transport medicine, food, clothing, and provide hiding places for the guerrillas and the Vietnamese Independence Army behind the scenes. These actions are equivalent to killing us indirectly! I have seen it with my own eyes in Vietnam.  Women and children fired at our soldiers, and we also saw Vietnamese guerrillas disguised as civilians. Without the support of these so-called 'women and children', where would those rebels and guerrillas have any fighting space to survive? Their slogans  Isn't it just 'based on the Vietnamese people'? Therefore, those seemingly innocent Vietnamese civilians are actually our indirect enemies! And for the sake of our own life safety, why should we eliminate potential enemies who directly or indirectly kill us?  Is it wrong? What¡¯s more, there are clear orders from superiors. Soldiers should take absolute obedience as their duty!"

    The author (argued): "Mr. Li, I think your view is a bit extreme. What is the difference between the Northeastern Border Guards massacring the Vietnamese and the Japanese after the capture of Nanjing and massacring us Chinese after the capture of Nanjing? If different ethnic groups attack and kill each other like this,  Then where is our humanitarian spirit and our human civilization reflected? If you can read these generous words just now that slightly beautify and defend the massacre from the Japanese,?Come to think of it, the Japanese said that they massacred Chinese people to protect themselves and for "self-defense." Isn't that ridiculous?  "

    Veteran Li Yi (coldly): "Mr. author, let me ask you a question first. Are you a Han Chinese?"

    Author (stunned): "Of course."

    Veteran Li Yi (sighed): "Alas! You so-called modern people who claim to have civilized ideas are so pedantic! You regard yourselves as God and God, and you self-righteously use the status of God and God to protect the differences between different nations of mankind.  When you are pitiful and arrogant about killing each other, have you ever thought that your identity is first and foremost a member of the Han Chinese nation or a certain ethnic group! Pity the Vietnamese, that is their own business! Because the weak have no sympathy!  Yes, our act of massacring the Vietnamese is very cruel and barbaric, but we are doing it for the Chinese nation! For the rejuvenation and rise of our own nation! Everyone is selfish, every nation is also selfish, and it must be selfish  ! In this world where the weak eat the strong and the fittest survive, if any nation advocates the so-called Buddhist spirit of "feeding the tiger with one's body" of self-sacrifice for others, then this nation is not far from extinction! Historically, any nation that has become strong  Nations advance on the bones of countless declining nations! For example, the Yanhuang nation rose up after defeating the barbarian nation of Chiyou! The Roman Empire became strong because they slaughtered the Dataki nation! The Qin and Han dynasties  The prosperity of the Tang Dynasty was because the Qin and Han people killed all the people of the Six Kingdoms and the Huns respectively! The prosperity of the Tang Dynasty came from the destruction of the Turkic people! The rise of the Americans was because they drove out all the Indians and took away the Indians.  Living space! There are all kinds of historical laws, and they are all the same! Back then, the Japanese massacred us Chinese because they wanted to prosper! So they wanted to kill the Chinese and conquer the Chinese! In the same way, we killed the Japanese and the Chinese  The Vietnamese are not doing it for the high-sounding excuse of "violating the spirit of humanitarianism", but because we, the Chinese nation, want revenge! Because we, the Chinese nation, want to be strong! So we must ruthlessly eradicate those who have become our stumbling blocks.  The Japanese nation and the Vietnamese nation! The fact is that simple! The winner will not be condemned! The winner and the loser are also the eternal principles! As Chinese, we do not sympathize with our compatriots who died tragically, but instead sympathize with the Vietnamese  And the Japanese, go speak for the Vietnamese and Japanese, then who will sympathize with us when we are massacred by the Japanese and Vietnamese?! Who will speak for us?!"

    Author (silent for a while): "Mr. Li, I have to admit that what you said makes sense and gives me a sense of enlightenment. However, the Vietnamese nation at that time was not a foreign race to our Chinese nation.  Well, they have become members of the Chinese nation, so it is unjustifiable that the Northeastern Army still carried out large-scale massacres against them! What about Koreans, Mongolians, Zhuangs, Tibetans, etc., who are not Han nationalities within the Chinese nation?  Wouldn¡¯t it destabilize the hearts of our nation and affect the unity of the entire Chinese nation?¡±

    Veteran Li Yi (with blazing eyes): "You are wrong again! In the process of external expansion, we Han people do not blindly advocate the violent methods of massacre and extermination like the Mongols. We are also willing to accept other ethnic groups and we Han people will peacefully  Unite and move forward together, and this is the origin of our greater Chinese nation! Non-Han ethnic groups such as Koreans, Mongolians, Zhuangs, Manchus, Tibetans, Hui, Uyghurs, etc. are already willing to unite with us Han people.  Advancing and retreating together form the greater Chinese nation, then we must treat them as brothers and sisters. But the Vietnamese nation is different. They do not want to peacefully submit and become a member of the Chinese nation. They want independence! They want to split the Chinese nation.  !The only way we can deal with these separatists is to kill them! Kill them until they are frightened! Kill them until their vitality is severely damaged! Kill them until they are unable to recover! Kill them until they never dare to betray the Chinese nation! This is the real reason why we carry out massacres.  The reason! As Commander-in-Chief Zhang Xueliang said, everything is for the highest interests of the Chinese nation!" (At the end of the interview, the author stood up in awe and bowed deeply to this veteran of the Northeast Field Army of the Chinese National Revolutionary Army.  I pay tribute personally and pay high respect to him and all the revolutionary ancestors who fought bloody battles for the rejuvenation and rise of the Chinese nation.)
