In 1600 AD, the Sekigahara War determined Japan's ownership of the world since the Warring States Period, but the prologue of this battle began with Tokugawa Ieyasu's crusade against Uesugi Kagekatsu. What is puzzling is that Uesugi Kagekatsu did not participate in the Sekigahara War, which decided who belonged to Japan. What made Uesugi Kagekatsu so reckless of the general trend of the world? There was a war that not only brought to naught the plan of Louis XIV, the "Sun King" of France, to dominate Europe, but also set Britain on the glorious journey of the "empire on which the sun never sets". What kind of war was it? The Balkans triggered World War I, and it was the Balkans that caused great changes in the world structure, but why did the Balkans become such a huge problem?

However, the large-scale battles in the Far East during the "World War I" were fought on Chinese soil; the Taiping Rebellion was something that could not be ignored in the late Qing Dynasty. No matter what the controversy, there were always a few loyal ministers who performed this desolate tragic ending.

The Totenkopf Division, together with the other two most famous Waffen SS units, the Adolf Hitler Guards and the Reich Division, were equipped with the most legendary weapons and equipment in the German army, the Tiger tank. The difference is that the "Skeleton" heavy armored company is the only unit in the Waffen SS that has accompanied the mother division from its formation to the end of the war and has been fighting on the Eastern Front. Although it is only company-sized and equipped with only a dozen tanks at most, its excellent combat effectiveness often plays an important role as the core and backbone in combat. Together with the parent division, the company participated in such events as the "Kharkov" counterattack, the important turning point in World War II - the Battle of Kursk, the "Mius River" counterattack, the operation to relieve the siege of Budapest, etc., And finally ended the journey by laying down their weapons in Austria. As a "fire brigade", the company witnessed the entire process of the Third Reich's army's gradual demise. Since most of its members were later handed over to the Soviet Union, only a handful of survivors were able to return to their homeland... Therefore, this book introducing the war history of this independent unit is extremely precious.

Aggression and Aid Korea and even in the entire military history - the Battle of Changjin Lake. Some historians say that the Battle of Changjin Lake was a turning point in history and a decisive battle in which the ace troops of China and the United States changed the course of history. The Changjin River, which originates from the Korean Peninsula, is an artificial water storage lake in northern North Korea. Here 63 years ago, the Ninth Corps of the Chinese People's Volunteer Army, wearing thin cotton-padded clothes, fought a 20-day battle with the most elite 1st Army Division of the U. S. Marine Corps in harsh weather approaching minus 40 degrees Celsius. The cruelty of this battle exceeded the imagination of all participants.

The historical clues involved in this volume of film are three wars fought by the United States or led by the United States: the Korean War, the Vietnam War, and the War on Terror. The first two were hot wars in the Cold War. There are many internal connections between the three wars. They had a huge and profound impact on the United States, different camps, world civilization and global politics. Individuals involved in these major historical events experienced a fate that was more bizarre and difficult than the two world wars to a certain extent, because they found themselves not only trapped in the fog of war, but also in the fog of justice. In other words, the justice and injustice of war - whether it is justice in starting a war or justice in fighting, are no longer so clear-cut, but are highly controversial. So, in this case, what is the role of the individual? What is human nature?

During the Anti-Japanese War, on the one hand, the Japanese army ordered the army to launch crazy attacks along several major transportation lines in North China; on the other hand, it sent the navy to block China's coastal transportation lines in an attempt to cut off China's international communication lines with the outside world. Cutting off international communication lines is equivalent to cutting off the lifeline of the war of resistance! As a result, China and Japan launched life and death duels on multiple battlefields on land, sea, and air around the Anti-Japanese War transportation lines that determined the fate of the country! The 18 major battles of the Anti-Japanese War all revolved around the struggle for transportation lines.

In China's modern history, there have been two good opportunities for its rise. One was the "Westernization Movement" initiated by Li Hongzhang, Zhang Zhidong and others at the end of the 19th century; the other was from the late 1930s to before the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War. At that time, China's annual GDP growth rate was as high as double digits. But what is depressing is that these two opportunities were ruined by the Japanese in a sense. What is diplomacy? Diplomacy is the external exchanges between countries to safeguard their sovereignty and interests. And this kind of exchange must be based and backed by the strength of the country. Did China have these capabilities at that time? Do you speak with a strong backbone? Does anyone listen carefully to what the Chinese say? Is any country sincerely willing to help China? This was the case with China's diplomacy during the Anti-Japanese War. Although it is sad and humiliating, it is an indisputable fact. Let us turn over the pages of history and review the past that is enough to wake us up!

They hope to reduce the sacrifices on the battlefields and the losses of civilians on both sides by eliminating the root cause. Of course, this battle between human natures was very bloody, brutal, extremely complicated, and its results were extremely confusing, leaving many puzzling mysteries to this day.

However, do people remember that in the vast jungles of northern Myanmar and western Yunnan and under the long roads, more than 100,000 remains of the Chinese Expeditionary Force were lying; do people know how difficult, tragic and tragic that war was?

After the Wuhan Battle in October 1938, China's Anti-Japanese War entered a more difficult period. The Kuomintang's frontal battles of Nanchang, Changsha, Guinan, and Suizao... Began one after another, forming an unprecedented and brutal tug-of-war - the Changde Battle, in which China defended The Chinese army of more than 8,000 people faced repeated attacks by 30,000 Japanese troops and held out for 16 days and nights until they ran out of ammunition and food, and fewer than a hundred people survived: the outpost battle to attack Nanning. After 12 days of fierce fighting, the Chinese army regained Kunlun Pass and witnessed the most brutal fighting in the Battle of Nanning. In the first phase of the Chinese Expeditionary Force's entry into Myanmar, they suffered heavy casualties in northern Myanmar. There were only 40,000 remnants of the 100,000 troops in the three armies. During this period, the famous anti-Japanese war generals Zhang Zizhong and General Dai Anlan, as well as millions of Kuomintang officers and soldiers fell on the battlefield to kill the enemy and defend the country. In this period until the Battle of Western Hunan kicked off the counter-offensive, the Chinese Anti-Japanese War finally ushered in a great victory. The country and the soul of the nation were sacrificed. This is a historical monument made of flesh and blood.

In human history, war is a never-ending topic. In every era and every country, it appears with an unprecedented face. The short period from September 1948 to September 1949 was undoubtedly the most intense period of change in China in more than a century. The victories in the three major battles of Liaoshen, Huaihai, and Pingjin destroyed the main force that the Kuomintang relied on to maintain its rule and completely changed the direction of this country.
