[editor's note:  I'm unable to verify the info about these "tenth troops", or even whether they should be called the National Guard.  help?] 

(translator's note: not sure what that is so I kept it intact, if someone more versed in history could translate, that would be great!)("Dong Tiao Nei Ge": [Tojo Hideki]'s cabinet)

(translator: not sure--simply faking?)("wang wei": Japanese puppet Central China government based in Nanjing, led by Wang Jingwei)

(translator: name of a treaty, not sure what the English name for it is) agreement and return to the pre-war situation of 1931.

[edit] I hope someone fix this eventually

I hope someone fix this article eventually; none of this stuff can be true --- 5 million casualties?? and then a second wave of 10 million Japanese troops?? I don't even believe part about Japan transferring troops to China in 1944 is true because by then, the Japanese empire is crumbling. If there is any transfer, it would be transferring troops from China and Korea to the home islands to defend against an expected US attack.

I'm slowly knocking it into shape but I haven't got much info. Very little seems to be on the web about the sino-japanese war in 1944. It's also difficult to ascertain the truth because the Chinese Nationalist (KMT) and Communists (CCP) have their own agendas - if anyone has any info they could let me know... user:Old Nol
