毛泽东优俘政策与古代兵学

Mao Zedong's Preferential Treatment to Captives and Ancient Arts of war

在古代战争中,经常出现残酷杀戮战俘的现象。古兵家在总结政治军事斗争经验的基础上,提出了善待战俘的策略思想,具有历史的进步意义。毛泽东将优俘政策同无产阶级立场、革命宗旨与其历史任务联系起来,将之作为对敌斗争的一项重要的政治工作方针,藉以改造俘虏,化敌为友,化敌为我。他关于优俘政策的实践与理论,是对我国古兵学军事斗争相关理论的继承、突破和改造,为无产阶级军事斗争的理论与实践作出了贡献。

In ancient wars, it was a common practice to slaughter captives. Therefore, it is of historical significance for ancient strategists to put forward the ideas of preferentially treating the captives after summing up politics and military affairs. Mao Zedong associated the policy of preferential treatment to captives with proletariats＇ position, revolution purpose and historic task, and regarded it as an important political guideline to reform captive as to convert enemies into friends and ultimately into alliance. His practice and theory of preferential treatment to the captives is the succession, breakthrough and reform of ancient military thoughts, and has made great contribution to the practice and theory of proletariat mihtary fight.
