[People News] During the public screening of the film State Organs in Taiwan, Zheng Zhi, a former military doctor from Shenyang who has for years exposed the CCP’s organ harvesting crimes, revealed that early military plans by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) regarding an invasion of Taiwan included directives to use captured Republic of China (ROC) soldiers as blood and organ banks on the battlefield.

According to a report by NTD Television, the documentary State Organs, which exposes the CCP's forced organ harvesting, has been screened hundreds of times across Taiwan since October 2024, with many post-screening discussion sessions held.

At a discussion held on January 11 at the Yunlin County Labour Recreation Centre, Li Zhengxiong, former Chief Prosecutor of the Military Prosecutor’s Office, relayed shocking details disclosed by Zheng Zhi during his visit to Taiwan. Zheng stated that a CCP military hospital once tasked him with devising a plan on how to harvest organs from Taiwanese people to transplant into wounded CCP soldiers in the event of war.

While exposing the organ harvesting from Falun Gong practitioners, Zheng remarked, “You Taiwanese are too kind. The CCP treats people like human mines. There are 23 million people in Taiwan, but the CCP says ‘Keep the island, not the people’ — and that’s nothing to them.”

In February 2024, a video of Zheng Zhi speaking at a State Organs forum circulated widely online in Taiwan. In the video, Zheng recounted his experience as a military medical student interning at the Shenyang Army General Hospital. He said that every year, the CCP would develop new military strategies for attacking Taiwan. One internal report examined how to solve logistical and medical support issues for CCP troops landing in Taiwan, specifically through the use of surrendered ROC soldiers.

The report detailed how to extract blood and organs from captured ROC soldiers to be transplanted into wounded PLA soldiers, effectively using Taiwanese troops as on-site blood and organ banks. The report proposed grouping captured soldiers by blood type for rapid blood extraction, avoiding the logistical challenges of long-distance blood transport and refrigeration. It also included plans to harvest skin from prisoners to treat burn victims among the CCP soldiers.

Zheng said he generally avoids discussing such horrific topics, but from the mindset of someone raised in mainland China, he noted, “People in Taiwan live in a normal society and are quite naive — they have no idea how cruel the CCP really is.”

Zheng Zhi was born into a family of doctors in Shenyang, China, and had close ties with several military officer families. He himself worked in a military hospital. After discovering the large-scale forced organ harvesting of Falun Gong practitioners by the CCP, he emigrated overseas and has since continuously exposed these crimes.

He previously revealed that a family friend — a close associate of a former CCP Politburo Standing Committee member — once told him that beneath the backyard of the Hubei Provincial Public Security Department in Wuhan, there was a concentration camp used to detain organ donors, mostly Falun Gong practitioners, including children.

Moreover, the CCP’s brutal treatment of ROC soldiers has a long history. A former military doctor in mainland China once disclosed that during the Chinese Civil War, the CCP captured large numbers of Nationalist soldiers and handed them over to CCP medical schools for live dissection experiments.
