Led by our great leader Chairman Mao Tsetung and the Chinese Communist Party, the army and people of the base area, men and women, old and young, everyone joined in the fighting, every village fought, to wage people's war. The mobilized Chinese people in their millions devised ingenious fighting methods to create a vast sea in which to drown the enemy, create the conditions that.make up for inferiority in arms and other things' as summed up by Chairman Mao, and waged remarkable and heroic struggle against Japanese imperialism.
