Nine Songs of Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 49: Counterattack

See you in a while..."

The plane turned a corner in the air, reversed course, and resumed its climb.It sailed on the curtain of the blue sky, and the white clouds above and the snow on the mountains below each other, shining brightly and beautifully.

It was a seemingly ordinary day in mid-May 1945.Since then until the end of the war, the Japanese army has never advanced a step on Chinese soil.

Comment section

Note 1: At the end of World War II, communication between Amsterdam and other regions was completely cut off. Due to the German squeeze on food in the occupied areas, there was an extreme shortage of food. Dogs, cats, raw beets and tulip bulbs were all used as food to satisfy hunger. (As an aside, among the Jewish victims of Amsterdam mentioned later, Anne Frank, the author of "Anne's Diary" is the most famous one, and her diary was originally written in Dutch. Amsterdam later built "Anne's House", which receives visitors and honor her.)

Note 2: In the middle of the 17th century, the British Puritans moved to the Netherlands to escape the persecution of the government and the church. After first arriving in Amsterdam in 1609 they settled in Leiden.Although the Dutch and the Puritan immigrants could live in harmony, the pressure from society, the hardships of life and the devastation of war made them have to make another decision to find a new continent.This is the official statement. I personally feel that the most religiously tolerant Netherlands at that time tolerated all kinds of people and religions, which made the Puritans feel uncomfortable, and it was also an important reason for them to decide to go to the United States...

Note 3: In the battle for islands in the later period of the war, the Japanese army's reliance on the Banzai charge decreased. After receiving the positive effect of the Biak Island tactics, they were more inclined to rely on the terrain to build strong fortifications and hold on to the bunkers and canyons. Carry out long-term successive resistance.This tactic resulted in 1.9 U.S. Marine casualties during the Battle of Iwo Jima.

Note 4: The Battle of Xiangxi, also known as the Battle of Xuefeng Mountain, or the Battle of Zhijiang by the Japanese, was the last large-scale battle launched by the Japanese army on the Chinese battlefield. The main purpose was to capture the Zhijiang Air Force Base.The main combat time was from April to June 1945, and the battlefield was located in the central and western part of Hunan Province, China.At the end of the war, the Japanese army still hoped to gain more advantages by attacking, thinking that the combat power at that time was enough to defeat the national army after replacing American weapons.Despite the earlier warnings from the Japanese military staff, the high-level Japanese troops stationed in China ignored the unfavorable situation of many soldiers and decided to launch this campaign. As a result, under the wrong decision-making and the tenacious resistance of the Chinese army, the Japanese army fell into a stalemate from the beginning to the end. Finally a complete rout.

The author has something to say:

If there are any readers who believed in the previous introduction that "the main story will end within this year", then I am really sorry for betraying your trust...

But at least it will be finished next year, definitely TUT
