When fighting, the soldiers know that they can t live, so why don t they pretend to be dead?

They don't dare to play dead, there must be a reason. And this reason is actually just that even if they pretend to be dead, they can't live, it's better to do something vigorous, and maybe they can end up with the title of a martyr. It can even be admired by people.

One is a deserter and the other is a martyr, but the two are very different. Moreover, the soldiers on your side want to play dead, but the enemy soldiers are not stupid, and people will also wonder if there will be soldiers mixed in with the ranks of the dead corpses, so they will pretend to be dead or sneak attack. So once the enemy wins, then they will definitely clean up the battlefield, after all, there are still so many loot waiting for them to collect!

At the same time, they will also check to see if all the soldiers they shoot are dead. After all, the fewer enemies the better!

Besides, even if you are confirmed to be dead, then you may be buried later, is it possible that you will be thrown into the pit with those dead bodies and then buried? How could you live in that case? And in the process, once you have the slightest struggle, then you will be discovered by the enemy, and then it will also be the result of being shot indiscriminately.

And perhaps, in the end, your side will come back to win again, but you are a deserter, and when your military generals find out that you are a deserter, then they may also shoot you with their own hands, or send you to a military court, and the result may be no different from dying on the battlefield. So for this, at this time, it is better to fight for yourself, and if you die, you will die openly, at least you will sacrifice your life for the country.

If it was really possible to avoid death by playing dead, then I don't think the soldiers would die so much. I think the most important thing is that the victorious side will dispose of the corpses of soldiers on the battlefield, and even if you pretend to be dead at the time, you will be searched and killed later, so it is useless.

When two armies are fought, the losing side will inevitably abandon the dead soldiers and flee, while the victorious side will often start cleaning up the battlefield. At this time, it is not only to see how many materials and property there are, but also to loot things from the soldiers, or to find out if there are any remaining living mouths, it can be said that under normal circumstances, there is no chance for the soldiers to pretend to be dead to escape.

In addition, the victorious side will dispose of the corpse, otherwise there may be an outbreak of plague and other diseases, so the corpse will generally be buried or cremated, even if the soldier is really pretending to be dead on the battlefield to escape, then it will be exposed at this time, and it will be worse than dying on the battlefield.

The soldiers are very aware of this truth, so they would rather die on the battlefield with dignity than pretend to die and bring humiliation on themselves.

This is the integrity of the nation, from the present point of view, the previous wars were fought by their own people, but in the past there were no fifty-six nationalities are one such saying, the Central Plains and the Xiongnu barbarians are very good when they are good, such as when the two Han Dynasty are bad, they are also very bad when they are bad, and they can't wait to let each other exterminate the race.

That's really a sea of blood hatred, the hatred of the family and the country, the soldiers go to the battlefield to protect their families and defend the country, all of them are good men, and there is blood in their hearts, otherwise you won't be able to read so many patriotic poems. Would such a hot-blooded man pretend to be dead in order to save his life in troubled times? They would rather live to protect the country and serve the country, how could they choose to live and live, this is not the work of the husband, so few soldiers will choose to pretend to be dead to escape.

Moreover, even if you play dead, you may not be able to escape, after the war, the defeated side retreats, the victor is to stay to clean the battlefield, in the process of cleaning the battlefield, they will collect some weapons, and will check whether the person is dead, if there is still a breath left, they will give you a knife, send you to the western sky, you can't escape, it's useless to pretend to be dead.

A: This quote comes from the British statesman and thinker Alexander Spence. He once said:

Soldiers should never be allowed to know why they are going to war, otherwise they will not go to war. He believed that a soldier would only have the courage to fight if he did not know why he was fighting. Alexander Spencer's views can be understood in two ways:

First of all, Hongsheng soldiers can become frightened because they know the truth, which will affect their morale; Second, soldiers may become defiant because they know the truth, which can affect their actions. Therefore, in order to give the soldiers the courage to fight, the commander should try to avoid letting the soldiers know the truth, but instead convince them that their actions are correct and will help achieve a larger goal. Personal Tips:

When deciding whether or not to participate*, think deeply, don't easily trust what others say, and have your own judgment so as not to be misled.

There are three main reasons, there are prison soldiers on the battlefield, if you pretend to be dead, once you are caught by the prison army, you will be tortured, on the battlefield, soldiers have a fine tradition of mending knives, after fighting and cleaning the battlefield, you will not miss the person who pretends to be dead, and the time will be even worse, so under normal circumstances, soldiers will not pretend to be dead for the sake of life.

1. First of all, there is the existence of the prison army on the battlefield, the prison army will kill the soldiers who run away or are afraid in order to boost morale, and often torture and kill the bad behavior of pretending to be dead, the more famous in history is the military system of Huangchao, Huangchao in a battle, he caught dozens of soldiers lying on the ground, after the battle, they were all skinned alive, the screams of the pretending to be dead were terrifying, and they were also hung up to show the public after being skinned, and the soldiers saw this scene, I am afraid that they would rather die on the battlefield than be treated like this, It can also be seen that the prison army throughout the ages has always had a way to deter the soldiers, prevent them from playing dead, and let them know that playing dead will be worse than real death.

2. When the two armies are fighting, if someone pretends to be dead lying on the ground, it is easy to be discovered, as long as the two armies find that the people on the ground have a trace of vitality, they will poke it without hesitation, and then pretending to be dead will become a real death, so it is very difficult to get through the trick, and if you are not careful, you will be sent warm.

3. In ancient wars, the head was money, just like playing games to make up for the knife, a head was how much money it was, and even those with more heads could be added to the ranks. Therefore, when the battlefield was cleaned up after the battle, the corpses on the ground were either cut off from their heads, or their ears were cut off and taken to receive money, so it was impossible to pretend to be dead.

Some people may think to themselves, I'll get up and run as soon as the battle is over, isn't it? Not to mention that the first and second points are difficult to get through, it is very easy to find when you get up after the battle, it is a very conspicuous target, and in a popular phrase, it is a mobile ATM. As a result, dozens of people will rush over and cut you off and grab your head.

Therefore, it is better to fight with all your might than to play dead.

It's hard to live by pretending to be dead. When the enemy cleans up the battlefield, they will cut off the heads of the dead soldiers in order to earn credit. The soldiers who pretended to be dead did not escape their deaths in the end.

The ancients valued integrity and would rather live standing than pretend to be dead and live. They have this fearless spirit, they are indomitable, and they have a sense of family and country, so they will not lose their national integrity in order to survive.

When ancient soldiers were fighting, there would definitely be some soldiers who pretended to be dead in order to survive, which was a very common thing.

Once they are found to be doing this, they will be deserters, and their families will be implicated and punished by the Nine Clans, so for the sake of their families, they will not and dare not pretend to be dead.

No, it won't. Because after the victory of the war, they were going to cut off the heads of the enemy, and this is the origin of military merit.

Because soldiers in ancient times were very brave, if they were caught pretending to be dead, the punishment would be even more severe.

Airplanes, artillery, tank bombs, you play dead.?

<> many people in modern times must have thought that when they fought in the past, they could only play dead? Many people feel that pretending to be dead is a very good method, after all, the battlefield is so big, there are so many corpses, who knows which corpse is alive and which corpse is dead.

But why would the soldiers rather be captured than lie down and pretend to be dead when fighting? The reason is actually quite simple.

Play dead, if the war is lost, it's fine, if you win, and your comrades see you play dead, you will be court-martialed.

Secondly, the survival rate of those who pretend to be dead is even lower than the survival rate of those who fight to the death, because they still have to examine the corpses, one by one.

If you pretend to be dead, the enemy will not kill you, but your own family will think that you are an insult and will shoot you in public, which is a bit of a role model.

Speaking of war, whether in ancient times or now, it is always a problem that people have to face squarely. The theme of today's article is related to this, since the battlefield is so dangerous, why would a soldier prefer to be taken prisoner rather than fall down and pretend to be dead when our side is obviously about to lose?

In ancient warfare, limited by the communication technology of the time, generals usually used drumming, ringing gold, waving flags and other means to dispatch troops. This means of commanding through visual or audible range determines that most of the armies under its control will appear in relatively dense large formations. The big array met the enemy, the brothers were fighting beside them, and in front of everyone's eyes, suddenly someone fell to the ground and couldn't stand it, I'm afraid I can't even explain my own people.

Moreover, most of the ancient armies were mixed legions composed of cars, horses, and foot, and tens of thousands of troops often fought hard in a small space, and there were not a few people who were run over by chariots and horses and trampled to death by personnel. Ancient wars often recorded merit by beheading the enemy, for example, the Qin army, known as the army of tigers and wolves, brought back tens of thousands of heads in each battle. The army has iron discipline, and there are still people behind the combat troops who supervise the war, and even if they survive, they will be engaged in military law, which is also a dead end.

In addition, there is a very important battlefield rule that binds these soldiers, and everyone knows in their hearts that it is difficult to do just like if you want to pretend to be dead and escape. After the two sides have fought, the victorious side takes over the battlefield and is also responsible for cleaning up the battlefield, firstly, to collect the enemy's spoils on the battlefield to replenish the loss of the war, and secondly, to check whether there are any surviving enemy soldiers among the dead bodies everywhere. When cleaning the battlefield, the soldiers are carrying real guns and live ammunition, and each corpse will be carefully looked through, and once it is found that there are enemy soldiers alive, they will either be killed directly, or they will be captured and tortured as prisoners.

Almost every soldier understands this truth before going to battle, so compared to pretending to be dead, it is better to be reborn like a man, and maybe there will be unexpected gains.

There is a soldier overseer in the back, and if you play dead directly, you can easily be trampled to death directly.

When a soldier runs backwards during the war, he is a deserter, and he will be dealt with by military law, if the soldier pretends to be dead, it is okay to win, if he is defeated, when the enemy cleans the battlefield, he will still dispose of the corpse, and at this time he really can't run.

Because if a soldier is a deserter, after his death, his family will not have any reward, so they will not dare to run back. Because after the battle between the two armies is over, there will be people to check whether the soldiers are really dead, and they will use sharp knives and other stabs on the dead soldiers to test them, which will end even worse, so no soldiers pretend to be dead.

If a soldier runs backwards, he is a deserter, which is a humiliation for a soldier, and the reason why no soldier pretends to be dead is because the soldier has a patriotic feeling and a spirit of self-sacrifice.

If you run backwards, you will be considered a deserter and may be executed. Because it's useless to pretend to be dead, you will still be killed by your opponent.

Soldiers who run backwards will definitely be executed immediately, and there are soldiers who pretend to be dead on the battlefield, but only a few, because this will not help, and many people will be found when they clean up the battlefield.
