Features: This book is a war history primarily featuring real battlefield scene images, with strong visual impact. It covers three phases: strategic defense, strategic stalemate, and strategic counter-offense, showcasing the contrasting struggles between the Nationalist's front-line battles and the Communist's rear-guerilla warfare. The book vividly depicts the brutal scenes of the comprehensive Chinese resistance war, which cost the Chinese nation 30 million casualties for the sake of human happiness. It presents a grand war scene composed of the rear battlefields of the Eighth Route Army and New Fourth Army, as well as the Nationalist's front-line battles, reflecting the 14-year history of China's resistance war since 1931. The Anti-Japanese War was a harrowing and arduous national self-defense war fought by all Chinese people, including overseas compatriots and righteous individuals from various nations, regardless of ethnicity, social class, or geographical boundaries, in the face of the threat of national extinction. This war not only saved the Chinese nation but also demonstrated the indomitable vitality of the descendants of the Yellow River and Huaxia, made great contributions to global peace, and revealed the grandeur and dignity of the Chinese nation. It also prompted deeper reflection on the future of the nation and the world.
