How was China involved in World War 2?

Answer 1

In September 1931, Manchuria was occupied by the Japanese Army as pretext to an incident blamed on the Chinese. Their main reason for invasion was Manchuria's large raw material resources. Major conflict started in 1937 with the Marco Polo Bridge Incident.

Chiang Kai Shek devoted his best German trained divisions to the protection of Shanghai in late August 1937. Chiang wanted to show the world that China was not a lost cause and wanted assistance to repel the Japanese invaders. Although the sacrifice of the divisions cost the Japanese resources and time and proved that China could defend and resist the best it can, help did not arrive in time as Chiang wanted.

Many Americans voluntereed under the American Volunteer Group. The Flying Tigers was part of this group and became famous for their air battles with the Japanese.

By December 1941, when the United States entered the war, along with the British and several other countries, China became part of the Allies. Aid was immediately given along with military advisors, such as General Stilwell.

The Japanese thus began a two front war with the Chinese and the Americans and British. Japan already devoted mass resources to China. With the United States fresh with manpower and weapons and supplies, Japan would start a decline in their strength in the Pacific.

For China, the WW2 started earlier than 1937. In September 1931, Japanese invaded China massively already. Three provinces in the northeastern China was occupied as Japanese collony, which was normally called Manchurian in English. But this term is never accepted by Chinese. Today, it is still a strongly annoying word, especially for people living in that region.

With the order of Chiang Kai-shek, the Chinese President at that time, Chinese military forces withdrew from the northeast completely. Most of them were sent to the northwest to fight against the Red Army of the Chinese Communist Party.

Before the western countries were brought into the war in Europe, they were still be able to look after their interests in China. Therefore, Japanese held its invation steps to some extent.

When Hitler's troops invaded in Poland, Japanese government believed that it was the time for more aggresive actions in China without caring the western countries' concern. Finally, in 1937, Japanese troops went across the Great Wall and invaded into the rest of China.

Therefore, it is not a proper way to say "how was China involved in the WW2". The root of the war is originated from its continuous conflit against Japan.

China being invaded by Japan in 1937 was a major partcipant in the pacific war against Japan. Japan exhausted much needed supplies on conquering the vast expanses of China. Although the Chinese Army was of limited quality and combat effectiveness her land provided many problems for the Japanese because of stretched supply lines.

In the decades leading up to WWII, China was in ruins. The last dynasty collapsed in 1911 (by then radio and airplane was already invented!). Europe had their hands all over China. Meanwhile, the revolutionary groups that took down the last dynasty began gaining momentum. The Koumingtang (KMT) or Nationalist Party and the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) was in an power struggle of who would rule China. Japan invaded China in 1937, because of the civil war, Japan took many Chineses cities with little or no resistance. The KMT and CCP would have rather killed each other than fight the Japanese. There was a short period of cooperation but that didn't last long.

That was how they were involved in WWII because that was the conflict in the Pacific Theatre. The U.S. supplied the KMT with military advisors and artillery to fight the Japanese but they were finding out that they were using it to fight the Communists instead. The Americans were hoping that the KMT would distract the Japanese so they would have it easier in their own fight against Japan. But it didn't work. The Japanese started withdrawing troops from China to fight the US in the Pacific. Of course you know the outcome of that. The US dropped the A-Bomb and forced Japanese troops to surrender in China. The war was over.

Japan raped plundered and pillaged China prior to attacking the US at Pearl Harbor. As the war progressed China joined the Allied powers but were occupied by Japanese forces close to the border. When Colonel Doolittle took a group of pilots and attacked Japan's industrial sites in Tokyo and a couple other cities, China was the designated landing site. Unfortunately due to Japanese occupation for the most part - none of the planes made it back. Almost all of the pilots and crews did make it out but he felt it was a failure without the planes as well.

Answer 2

They were at war with one another and had been since 1933. Japan and China had been enemies for centuries. They where bitter enemies and numerous attrocities were committed against the Chinese People.

Answer 3

Off the top of my head i know that the U.S. was allied with them prior to the attack on Pearl Harbor but other than that, I'm not sure. The US along with Britain, France, and Russia were allied with China in WWII.

Answer 4

China had been fighting the Japanese before WWII began in September 1939 and remained an enemy of Japan, although China had a complex relationship with Germany as many German companies operated in the former treaty ports.
yes

Answer 5

China had previously allied with Germany. Japan had begun invading China and China was fighting back, with the help of USSR, so China joined the Allied powers.

Answer 6

china was having an affair with Korea and japan found out so the relationship was not good

Answer 7

Just good.

Answer 8

Yes, China was an ally.

Answer 9

1931年9月，满洲被日本军队占领，作为归咎于中国的事件的借口。他们入侵的主要原因是满洲的大量原材料资源。重大冲突始于1937年的卢沟桥事件。

1937年8月下旬，蒋介石将他最优秀的德国训练师用于保护上海。蒋介石想向世界表明，中国不是一个失败的事业，并希望得到援助来击退日本侵略者。尽管分裂的牺牲耗费了日本的资源和时间，并证明了中国能够尽最大努力进行防御和抵抗，但是援助并没有像蒋介石所希望的那样及时到达。

许多美国人在美国志愿者组织下志愿服务。飞虎队是这个团体的一部分，并因与日本人的空战而闻名。

到1941年12月，当美国与英国和其他几个国家一起参战时，中国成为了盟国的一部分。与史迪威将军等军事顾问一起，援助立即得到了提供。

于是，日本人开始了与中国人、美国人和英国人的两条战线的战争。日本已经向中国投入了大量资源。随着美国人力、武器和物资的更新，日本在太平洋的实力将开始下降。

对中国来说，第二次世界大战早于1937年就开始了。1931年9月，日本人已经大举入侵中国。中国东北的三个省被日本占领，在英语中通常被称为满洲里。但是这个术语从来没有被中国人接受过。今天，它仍然是一个非常恼人的词，尤其是对生活在那个地区的人来说。

在当时的中国主席蒋介石的命令下，中国军队完全撤出了东北。他们中的大多数被派往西北地区与中国共产党的红军作战。

在西方国家卷入欧洲战争之前，他们仍然能够照顾他们在中国的利益。因此，日本在一定程度上保持了其侵略的步伐。

当希特勒的军队入侵波兰时，日本政府认为是时候对中国采取更具侵略性的行动了，而不在乎西方国家的担忧。最后，在1937年，日本军队越过长城，入侵中国其他地区。

因此，说“中国是如何卷入二战的”是不恰当的。这场战争的根源是它与日本的持续冲突。

中国在1937年被日本侵略是太平洋对日战争的主要参与者。日本在征服广阔的中国时耗尽了急需的物资。尽管中国军队的质量和战斗力有限，但由于供应线紧张，她的土地给日本人带来了许多问题。

在二战前的几十年里，中国是一片废墟。最后一个王朝在1911年崩溃(那时收音机和飞机已经发明了！)。欧洲的势力遍及中国。与此同时，推翻上一个王朝的革命团体开始获得势头。国民党和中国共产党(ccp)在争夺谁将统治中国的权力。日本在1937年入侵中国，由于内战，日本几乎没有抵抗就占领了中国的许多城市。国民党和ccp宁愿自相残杀，也不愿与日本人作战。有一段短暂的合作，但并没有持续很久。

这就是他们参与二战的方式，因为那是太平洋战场上的冲突。美国向国民党提供军事顾问和大炮来对抗日本人，但是他们发现他们用它来对抗共产党。美国人希望国民党能分散日本人的注意力，这样他们就能更容易地对抗日本。但是没用。日本开始从中国撤军，在太平洋与美国作战。你当然知道结果。美国投下原子弹，迫使日本军队在中国投降。战争结束了。

在珍珠港袭击美国之前，日本强奸并掠夺了中国。随着战争的发展，中国加入了同盟国，但被边境附近的日本军队占领。当杜利特尔上校带领一群飞行员袭击东京和其他几个城市的日本工业基地时，中国是指定的着陆点。不幸的是，由于大部分时间被日本占领，没有一架飞机能够返回。几乎所有的飞行员和机组人员都成功了，但是他觉得没有飞机也是一个失败。
