|
Crossing frontiers |
|
From the peninsula |
|
The horde advancing |
|
Into China |
|
On the rampage |
|
Insubordination |
|
Cabal of generals |
|
RebellionOperate without approval |
|
Divisions run amok |
|
Mobilizing border troops |
|
Piling up their stocks |
|
Conducting manoeuvres |
|
Harsh arrogance |
|
Swallow the giant |
|
With malevolence |
|
Increase aggression |
|
Sweep into |
|
ChapelRotation bombings |
|
Burning Shanghai |
|
Open game for victors |
|
As they mow civilians down |
|
Public decapitation |
|
But still they did not bow |
|
Imprisonment meant slavery |
|
Mass-rapes day and night |
|
Use of chemical weapons |
|
No surrender insight |
|
Strategy of attrition |
|
Lure intruders far inland |
|
Retreat, harass, attack |
|
Penetrating fragile flanks |
|
Devouring juggernaut |
|
A tactic to repeat |
|
Impossible conquest |
|
Never complete |
