From Michael Lindsay, The Unknown War: North China 1937-45:
"By the 1940's, the only weapons in reasonably good supply were hand grenades and land mines. ... Considering this shortage the communist performance was remarkable.
Neither the terrain nor the climate favored guerrilla fighting (in North China). ... In compensation the Chinese communist forces had the genuine and active support of the local population.
