Back in time to August 15, 1945, it is a day to remember all over the world. On that day, Japan officially announced its surrender, ending an eight-year war of aggression in China. This is not only the victory of the Chinese nation in resisting foreign invasion and fighting for national independence and national liberation, but also an important part of the world anti-fascist war.

On the same day, the Emperor of Japan announced to the people of Japan on radio that he had accepted the Potsdam Proclamation urging Japan, China, the United States, and Britain to surrender to Japan, and that he would surrender unconditionally. The news shook the world like a bolt from the blue. This was the first time in Japan's history that it had been completely defeated in a foreign war, and it was also the complete bankruptcy of its imperialist expansionist policy.

Beginning with the "77 Incident" in 1937, Japan launched a full-scale war of aggression against China. In this war, the Chinese people have paid enormous sacrifices, countless families have been broken, and countless lives have been lost. However, in the face of such a grim situation, the Chinese people did not give in, and with firm determination and stubborn will, they waged an arduous struggle against the Japanese invaders.

After a long war of resistance, the Chinese army gradually turned the tide. After the United States dropped two atomic bombs on Japan and the Soviet Union sent troops to Tohoku, the power of Japanese militarism was seriously weakened. At this time, China, the United States, and Britain issued the Potsdam Proclamation, urging Japan to surrender immediately and unconditionally. Opposition to the war is also growing in Japan. Under these circumstances, the Emperor of Japan finally made the decision to surrender.

August 15, 1945, is a special day for the Chinese. It marked China's victory in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and also marked the great contribution made by the Chinese people to the world anti-fascist war. Since then, the Chinese people can finally shake off the shadow of war and rebuild their homeland.

However, the scars left by this war cannot be easily erased. We must not forget those who bravely sacrificed their lives for the sake of our country and nation, and whose spirit will always inspire us to move forward. At the same time, we should also cherish peace and avoid falling into the abyss of war again.

Now, many years have passed since that great day. But no matter how time passes, we must not forget that period of history and the lessons that that war brought us. Let us remember this history together, cherish peace, and create a better future together.
