So many years have passed since the end of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, and many historical facts have been intentionally or unintentionally forgotten by future generations. Now many young Chinese people often say that the Nationalist army is really useless, and it can't beat the Japanese one-on-one. However, many of the nationalist soldiers of that year did not even eat a meal with meat and fish, and died on the anti-Japanese battlefield.
Before the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Japan was not very rich, especially in most rural areas. The food standards of Japanese soldiers are significantly higher than those of ordinary Japanese, with enough rice, meat to eat every day, and side foods are also quite abundant.
At that time, there were many young Japanese workers in the same period, and they were also militarized. Their daily side dishes are basically pickles, miso, and vegetables. Only four meals a week have meat and fish, and these comparisons show how much japanese soldiers are valued.
The picture shows the rations of the Chinese army during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression at that time, and it can be clearly seen that there is only one pot, containing miscellaneous grains and rice, and there is no side food. This rice is also not clean, there are moldy rice, sand, stones, coarse chaff, rice husks, barnyards, rat droppings and small bugs, the name of the officers and men of the Nationalist army who are happy in the bitterness is "Eight Treasure Rice".
