    There are many books about the War of Resistance Against Japan, but the one I'm recommending below is quite unique and enjoyable to read slowly. It borrows a system from a game like Mount & Blade, and the protagonist is transported to the battlefield of the War of Resistance. It's somewhat like an infinite flow or dungeon-crawler story, with one mission after another. The original history is optimized within these dungeons, with more Japanese soldiers killed, and the protagonist isn't a saint, making it quite satisfying to read. Currently, it's in the second dungeon mission, where the protagonist goes to Hiroshima to destroy a poison gas factory and is even planning to release poison in Tokyo—it sounds incredibly exciting!
