Did the Bushido Code prevent Japanese from taking prisoners?

The code of Bushido is directly translated as "the way of the warrior". It was the code which became the standard living protocol for the Japanese soldier. The code itself does not state that prisoners are to be executed immediately. Many Japanese officers and soldiers believed and were told that in order to meet the standards of the warrior, they must not hesitate to kill the enemy. Therefore prisoners were executed to prove that they were worthy of being called warriors. Also the Japanese did not believe in surrender and as such, it was thought that all prisoners were lowly cowards who were too scared to meet their deaths. This was a bit at odds with Western ideas about surrender.
