Features: From autumn 1943 to September 1945, it was the historical stage when the Chinese War of Resistance against Japan moved toward victory. Since spring 1943, the World War against Fascism had seen major turning points, with the Allies launching strategic counterattacks on major battlefields in both East and West, gradually developing into a large-scale counteroffensive. On May 8, 1945, Fascist Germany was defeated and surrendered, and the demise of Japanese Fascism was imminent. After the Soviet Union declared war on Japan, the liberated areas, supported by over 10 million regular troops and more than 22 million militia, launched a comprehensive large-scale counteroffensive against Japanese forces, leading to the surrender of 1.28 million Japanese invaders on the Chinese battlefield. The Chinese people finally achieved a complete victory in the War of Resistance against Japan!
On September 18, 1931, with the thunderous artillery fire of the Japanese Kwantung Army's attack on the Beibai Camp in Shenyang, Japanese imperialism launched the long-planned aggressive war to dominate China. Thereafter, it gradually encroached and advanced step by step. Where the invaders' iron hooves trod, mountains and rivers bled, farmlands were ruined, lives were destroyed, and civilization was destroyed. The Chinese nation faced the critical juncture of national extinction and annihilation! Saving the nation and preserving survival became the inescapable responsibility of every Chinese person! The Chinese people of all classes, parties, groups, and overseas Chinese, prioritizing the greater national interest, united, stood united in hatred of the enemy, and faced the national crisis together, building a new Great Wall with flesh and blood, and engaged in a heroic struggle against the Japanese invaders that lasted for 14 years. The Chinese War of Resistance against Japan followed a difficult and winding path of development, undergoing a historical process from localized resistance to nationwide resistance, from strategic defense to strategic stalemate, and then to strategic counteroffensive. Through immense national sacrifices and heroic resistance, the Chinese people finally achieved the great victory of completely defeating Japanese imperialism, composing a moving and majestic anthem of the entire nation's anti-invasion war.
