Part III The central pillar of the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression
After the September 18th Incident, in which Japanese military personnel committed a false flag attack as a pretext for invasion, Chinese people began to rise in resistance. That was the starting point of the Chinese People's War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression which was the prelude to World War II. After the Lugou Bridge Incident of July 7th, resisting the invasion and saving the country became the common will and action of Chinese people of all parties, nationalities, classes and groups, and overseas Chinese. China thus completely entered the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and held its ground in the main Eastern theatre of World War II. The CPC became a central pillar of the war. The victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance against Japan became a turning point in the history of the Chinese nation and put the country on the path towards rejuvenation.
