Japan in China

It's just not very interesting.

It was a pretty miserable campaign for both sides. Japan was actually stuck in a quagmire, bogging down 1 million + men in some pretty heavy fighting. They had taken upwards of 500,000 casualties in China even before bombing pearl harbor and opening up a 2nd front for them.

China for its part couldn't throw out the Japanese and was just trying to outlast them, enduring huge atrocities against civilians and enormous losses along the way.

It was also the most old-fashioned front of WW2. Cavalry, long infantry marches, and classic artillery dominated the fighting all the way until 1945.

Manchuria went well for the Jap's actually, it was when they advanced further into China proper that they were met with resistance in abundance.

Of course, they met more resistance with more brutality. I can't begin to describe what they did... Nanking being the worst case IMO

That old world indifference concerning what's right or wrong in the waste of war will return with time. Those were many killed, many gruesome acts by men in uniforms, I can hardly imagine how the future will process another world war, especially if it forms around Asia.

>What could have been done for better results to be achieved?
Wide spread use of chemical weapons.
Massacre civilians with gas. Fucking destroy the Chinese with poison gas.
Why the fuck do you need to waste so much time fighting for a city when you can just fly over it with a hundred G3Ms deploying gas. The Japanese did have the technology and they could have used it. And nobody would be able to do a thing about it, only bitch.
