War against aggression commemorated

At the monument square honoring the martyrs of the Hundred-Regiment Campaign during the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression (1931-45), Xi laid a floral basket to pay tribute to the martyrs.

Xi also learned about local efforts to carry out revolutionary history education and promote the great spirit of resisting aggression.

Joined by about 200,000 troops from 105 regiments, the Hundred-Regiment Campaign was the largest and longest strategic offensive launched by the Eighth Route Army in North China, led by the CPC, since the start of the war of resistance.
