1On July 7, 937, Japan planned the "Lugouqiao Incident" and launched a long-planned war of aggression against China. They once clamored that they would occupy Shanghai in one month and China in three months. However, in fact, after eight years of war, the arrogant Japanese invaders finally suffered a shameful defeat. The people of China paid a heavy price, but they finally won.
War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression's victory is of great significance to the Chinese nation. Since the Opium War in 1840, China has been passively beaten and repeatedly defeated in the difficult process of modernization. As far as China and Japan are concerned, Japan has launched many wars against China, including the Sino-Japanese Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, which not only tried to block the modernization process of China, but also tried to swallow China. The century-long history of defeat ended in China's victory and Japanese defeat on August 5 1945. Taking advantage of the victory of the second anti-fascist war, the people of China broke free from a series of unequal treaties, cleared away the humiliation of a century and a half of colonialism, and became one of the five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council. The victory of the people of China was won with the support of the world's just forces, and War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression became a turning point in the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.
Commemorate this hard-won victory, remember and practice the winning rule of this victory, and the victory will always belong to the people of China:
Unity of the Chinese nation is the foundation of victory. At the beginning, the reason why Japan dared to invade China flagrantly as a small island country was mainly to see that in the difficult process of modernization in China, the central government was weak, the local forces ruled independently and lacked cohesion. However, facing the desperate situation of death, the Chinese nation did not yield, but woke up and formed a broad anti-Japanese United front, fighting bloody battles with the Japanese army with the strength of the whole nation until victory. After this victory, the people of China will never allow any internal or external forces to undermine the unity of the Chinese nation, and will never allow anyone to split Taiwan Province from China.
Only by constantly striving for self-improvement can we not be passively beaten, and only by peaceful development can we maintain peace. At that time, the reason why Japan dared to go to war with China was also directly related to the fact that Japan's economic and military strength was far stronger than that of China. 1937, the Japanese industrial output value was $6 1 billion, and that of China was $0/600 million; The annual output of Japanese steel is 5.8 million tons, while that of China is only 40,000 tons. If you fall behind, you will be beaten, self-esteem will be strengthened first, and development needs stability.
Being good at learning from history can prevent the blood of predecessors from flowing in vain. We commemorate this victory today by facing history with a sober and rational attitude. We not only face the humiliation, but also cherish the sacrifices made by our predecessors, and cherish the hard-won victory, with the aim of facing the future and building it. There are also many people of insight in Japan who face this history rationally. However, some right-wing forces in Japan have repeatedly turned black and white and denied the crime of aggression. Therefore, to take the road of peaceful development, we must correctly understand and treat history. The history of Japanese militarist aggression against China cannot be forgotten, let alone tampered with. The Japanese government should face up to history, draw lessons and win the trust of the people of China and Asian countries with practical actions.
Looking back on the historical facts of China people's war of resistance against Japanese aggression and the modern history of China, and looking at the current world reality, we have a deeper understanding that only with national unity, people's unity, social stability, economic development and national strength enhancement can China people have dignity, and the Chinese nation can stand among the nations of the world and make contributions to world peace and development. In the great journey of building a well-off society in an all-round way in the new century, carrying forward the national spirit and rallying national strength is a reliable guarantee for achieving our development goals, and it is also the fundamental significance for us to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the victory of the Anti-Japanese War.
