Anti-Japanese War, weapons designer at Fengtian Arsenal

The countdown ended and the screen flashed to a room. On the wall at the back of the room were hung the flag of the Punitive Army and the flag of the Republic of China. In front of the two flags sat Li Weiguo, who saluted the camera.

"The fact that you can watch this video proves that you have the ambition to join the army. This educational film will explain to you the military career, the benefits you will get after joining the army, and the responsibilities you need to bear."

The scene changed, and Li Weiguo's voice became a narration, and the film scene turned into soldiers marching in formation in Hutou Mountain, followed by obstacle crossing, target shooting, disassembling guns, cleaning guns, and internal services.

Li Weiguo's voiceover explained in detail what these soldiers were doing, the intensity of their training, etc.

What the film showed was like the life of people from another world, and everyone watching was amazed. If Li Xi hadn't warned them not to make any sound, they would have wanted to communicate with each other.

Tan Yuqing's eyes widened. The spirit and vitality displayed by the soldiers in the film made her feel expectant. She was about to become one of these people. It seemed not impossible!

The video ended with a scene of thousands of people and nearly a hundred tanks and armored vehicles charging together, which shocked everyone present. This part ended and the next part talked about the treatment of soldiers.

The scene jumped to the cafeteria, where a large number of disciplinary soldiers were getting their meals. Pots of dishes were placed side by side, and at a glance there were more than 20 kinds.

The soldiers lined up with large bowls in their hands, walked past the dishes, and when they saw a dish they liked, they would just pick up a spoon and scoop a spoonful.

Li Weiguo's voice was heard.

"The Punitive Army adopts a buffet style. As long as you can finish it and don't waste it, you can take as much food as you want in the restaurant."

The scene changed again, and we were in a clean white room where many patients were lying, some of them still on IV drips.

"The Penal Corps provides free medical services to soldiers. If they are sick, the Penal Corps will be responsible for curing them and provide sickness allowances."

The soldiers had smiles on their faces as they lined up to receive silver dollars. The silver dollars were distributed by special soldiers wearing white helmets, white belts, and with the word "Military Police" written on their left sleeves.

"The salary of the disciplinary army is not paid by officers, but directly by the military police who are independent of the officer system, which fundamentally eliminates the problem of corruption. The salary of the disciplinary army is 8 dollars for a private first class, and dollars for a private second class..."

If the income does not match, the soldier can report it to the military police, officers, or patrol officers.”

"In addition, the Penal Corps provides a letter-writing service, where soldiers have the opportunity to write to their families once a month and send personal belongings weighing no more than 5 kilograms home."

The screen shows a disciplinary soldier packing up letters from home and several canned goods, and then transporting them layer by layer through the Longlong Store to his parents.

The film then shot a close-up of the treatment of military dependents. At the end of each year, military dependents could go to the Longlong Store with their military dependents ID to receive a shopping voucher worth 10 dollars.

We have almost finished talking about the benefits of being a soldier here, and the scene switches back to the scene where Li Weiguo is sitting in front of the camera.

Li Weiguo looked at the camera very seriously and said: "I have already told you about the living conditions of soldiers and the rights they enjoy. Next, the film will show you the responsibilities of soldiers and the cruelty of the battlefield.

The following content will contain a lot of bloody scenes, so please be mentally prepared, new recruits."

After the words were spoken, the picture stopped for a long time. Except for the clicking sound of the projector, all other sounds in the projection room stopped. This inexplicable pause made everyone present feel depressed.

When everyone was getting a little agitated and thought the projector was broken, cannons suddenly appeared on the screen. The artillerymen raised their muzzles high, followed by the sound of rumbling cannons.

Although the quality of the speakers produced by Li Qinwu and his team was not very good, the sound of artillery bombardment still scared everyone present when the volume was turned up to maximum.

The location of the artillery bombardment was a city. One shell after another landed in the concrete city, creating huge smoke and dust columns. The originally prosperous houses collapsed in an instant.

Then there is a mixed editing of various battlefield scenes.

Planes were flying in the sky, soldiers of the punitive army were operating heavy machine guns and firing, rows of tanks were marching in the streets, soldiers of the punitive army were following carefully behind the tanks, suddenly, a group of Japanese soldiers rushed out from the front.

This group of Japanese soldiers did not expect to encounter the enemy. They lost the initiative due to their distraction and were slaughtered by the soldiers of the Punishment Army and the machine guns on the tanks.

The battlefield shown in the film is the Battle of Shanghai. At that time, the punitive army's modified tank-mounted machine gun was a 12.7mm machine gun, which directly tore the Japanese team into pieces. All kinds of broken limbs and flesh flew everywhere, causing a collective uproar in the screening room.

The next shot is a gunfire truck converted from a tanker truck, which is approaching a building occupied by the Japanese. Amid a burst of noisy gunfire, the gunfire truck's turret makes a loud bang, and a fire snake rushes into the building occupied by the Japanese, followed by the Japanese's screams.

Several of the devils were set on fire. They rushed out of the building, twisted around on the ground, and then were burned to charcoal.

Here the camera also gives a close-up of the Japanese who were burned to charcoal. The Japanese's facial features were burned into a ball, and his hands and feet were curled up like a cooked shrimp. His whole body was pitch black, like a punished evil ghost.

The people in the screening room couldn't hold it in any longer. They twisted their hips, making the benches squeak.

Tan Yuqing was also horrified when she saw the charred Japanese soldiers in the picture. She kept swallowing because her mouth was secreting saliva crazily and her stomach cramped and made her want to vomit.

She also heard even more unbearable noises coming from the two women next to her. One of them was grinding her teeth, and the other was shaking her legs wildly, both of them had ugly expressions on their faces.

Tan Yuqing found that these two people were more scared than she was. For some unknown reason, the panic in her heart was actually alleviated a lot.

The screen played a few more battlefield shots, and suddenly the scene changed and cut to a warehouse.

The warehouse was packed with people, all of them looking angrily at a man in the center wearing Japanese military uniform.

Li Weiguo shouted loudly at the judge's bench.

"I sentence Ono Jihyo to death from eating too much snacks!"

The voice-over details who Ono Chitaka is, why he died from eating snacks, and what he did.

The scenes switched synchronously, and a large number of corpses were found in the snow in the mountains. They were in various distorted postures, and many of them were broken into pieces, obviously tortured to death. The number of corpses was so large that it was jaw-dropping.
