Answer: gradually escalating demands.

Step-by-step explanation:

"Start small and build" was a main technique in the Chinese strategy throughout the Korean War.

It involved gradually escalating demands, beginning with prisoners of war being asked to state seemingly inconsequential anti-American or pro-Communist statements, to then push them further until they would convince themselves they were actual collaborators.
