Impactful Impressions

It was a short conversation that Jiang Tao read in 2011 that gave him the idea to record the history of the Chinese People’s War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression (1931-45) from a different perspective.

The discussion was between a journalist and a military officer about 80 years ago during the most difficult time of the war.

The officer was on his way to Hebei Province in north China to organize resistance forces. At that time, most of the province was occupied by Japanese troops, but the officer expressed his confidence in China’s final victory over the invaders.
