Soviet Union’s Red Army played a decisive role in liberating China’s northeast area from the rule of the fascist Japanese and Manchu regime.
It only took the Red Army 7 days in August 1945 to wipe out 700,000 Japan’s Kwantung Army. The mechanised Japanese Kwantung Army was surrendered to the Soviet Red Army in August 1945.
Red Army entering China’s northeast was a significant factor in the Japanese government’s decision to surrender unconditionally.
August 1945 in China’s northeast, Japanese soldiers laid down their weapons in front of a Red Army officer.
Local Chinese in China’s northeast welcomed Soviet Red Army troops.
In the 7-day battles that delivered a crushing defeat to the Japanese, 32,000 Red Army soldiers lost their lives or got injured, 500 armoured vehicles were destroyed.
