Introduction: In recent years, war-themed film and television works have been welcomed by people, and many "anti-Japanese dramas" with mysterious content have appeared, and the directors of these film and television works want to use some exaggerated expressions to win ratings for their works, but the effect caused by this is counterproductive, and the Internet is scolded.
In order to portray the characters, film and television works will exaggerate the plot content to a certain extent, but these contents also need to be in line with history and cannot be exaggerated and outrageous. Some of the anti-war film and television works in the early years handled well in this area, whether it is a reflection of history or the shaping of characters, they have achieved a relatively excellent level, such as the anti-war work "Bright Sword".
When it comes to this work, the most impressive thing is the protagonist "Li Yunlong", in his body we can see a mixed image of multiple personalities such as blood, wit, and heavy love. Although Li Yunlong was often punished for violating the orders of his superiors, his talent in military command was also admirable.
In "Bright Sword", there is such a plot, that is, Li Yunlong openly disobeyed the order of his superiors to take some people to snipe the Japanese army's team, and captured seven senior generals of the Japanese army in one fell swoop, namely a major general and six major generals, such a record can be described as very amazing, but why did he not choose to take these generals prisoner, but kill them all? Let's analyze the reasons together.
In the work "Bright Sword", Li Yunlong fought many victories, including the Ambush battle of Huting. At that time, Chu Yunfei, commander of the 358th Regiment of the Nationalist Army, came to Li Yunlong's camp for an inspection, hoping to see the other side's ability in military command. Li Yunlong was not afraid of the inspection of friendly troops, and after the investigation, he chose to launch the Tiger Pavilion ambush.
Through his sensitive sense of smell for the battlefield, Li Yunlong realized that this battle could achieve a lot of results. It just so happened that at this time, the Japanese Observation Group led a large number of Japanese generals to inspect the combat situation of the Japanese special forces, and passed through Li Yunlong's defense zone on the road, which can be said to have just bumped into the muzzle of the other side's gun. Unlike other battles, most of the enemy in this battle were high-ranking officers, and once defeated, it was a huge blow to the Japanese command system.
Of course, this ambush ended in victory, and Chu Yunfei also saw Li Yunlong's military talent. Because the ambush location was chosen quite well, the enemy did not find any trace of Li Yunlong and others at all, and suffered heavy losses after entering the minefield. Soon all the soldiers of the observation regiment were killed, and only a group of senior officers were surrounded by the Eighth Route Army.
The importance of these generals to the Japanese army is self-evident, if you can take them prisoner, you may be able to get a lot of important information, but in the end Li Yunlong did not do this, but killed them all. There are many reasons for this. One is that the battle was carried out under Li Yunlong's own planning, without the permission of his superiors.
The purpose of this battle was not to gain the praise of his superiors, but Li Yunlong hoped to show his strength to friendly forces and boost the morale of his side. However, because the battle ended too quickly, the purpose of boosting morale for Li Yunlong had not yet been achieved.
Second, Japanese soldiers had the so-called "Bushido spirit" and were highly loyal to the emperor. We see in many film and television works that Japanese soldiers are greedy and afraid of death, but the real situation is not the case, in the early all-out war of resistance on the battlefield most of the Japanese soldiers on the battlefield were elite troops, soldiers have a very firm belief, it is difficult to force the other side to surrender, let alone get useful information from their mouths.
Our army itself has a policy of giving preferential treatment to prisoners, and if they are captured alive, they cannot be forced to open their mouths by means of torture and other means in the subsequent process. Such a situation was something that Li Yunlong did not want to see, and instead of capturing them alive, it was better to directly execute them. At the same time, it can also use this opportunity to boost morale, as evidenced by the subsequent single-handed confrontation between the two sides.
For Li Yunlong, since the other party took the lead in proposing a single challenge, then his side can not lose its demeanor, and should naturally accept the other party's request, which is also related to Li Yunlong's own personality, he is a person with strong machismo. In order to completely defeat these Japanese troops spiritually, Li Yunlong agreed to the other side's request for one-on-one duels, and by fighting with these Japanese generals, he could also let the soldiers understand their shortcomings.
Summary: "Bright Sword" is an excellent anti-war theme work, and the anti-war spirit displayed in this work is worthy of our admiration and study. When we face the inevitable crisis of the unavoidable, it is better to stand up and fight with the invaders, which is the bloodiness of a nation.
