We compelled the enemy to surrender -- is an active sentence -- the subject is we, the verb is compelled, the object is the enemy.

In a passive sentence the object of the active sentence goes into the subject position -- The enemy...........

The verb phrase is -- be + past participle -- was compelled = The enemy was compelled........

The phrase 'to surrender' is part of the verb -- The enemy was compelled to surrender.....

The subject of the active sentence goes into the object position and is preceded with by --

The enemy was compelled to surrender by us.

The noun phrase -- by us can -- be left off if you want.

Why should wars have rules?

With out rules wars would be even worse. It is usually better to have your enemy surrender than to just defeat him. If your enemy surrenders you are more likely to have a lasting victory. When your enemy has to surrender it really makes a statement,(we are finished). Look what happened at Yorktown. The rules of war say that you don't kill someone when they are surrendering. Without rules no one would ever surrender. They would just fight on the last man.
