Were they executed?

I wish I could remember the source, but IIRC many of the Chinese were captured or turncoats of the GMT from during the civil war, so were not considered reliable. Thus they were often the first on the front lines to redeem themselves, prove themselves, in combat.

Read up on Chinese POW camps, and the factionalism within.
