Just remember

There was a period of time in Chinese history where a group of highly trained atheletes tried to fight colonization via martial arts

There was also a period where a lot of Europeans shot them all down and didn't even care about it..

Yes all of history people have shit all over chinese

And that is part of where their insecuirty comes from

It's a culmination of events and beliefs

The Maoist period is also great

Campaigns such as the pest control one are just so incredibly sad. They are not even rooted in opportunism, just in plain ignorance on a massive scale

since you guys were talking about learning chinese, i learned in highschool mostly but thers some great apps top help you try just searching it. theres one called like chinese skills or something and has a panda on it. i like that oine its pretty good

Japan would have annexed the entirety of China had it not been for America <:chink:323022148870602752>

They were steamrolling everything with no real signs of stoppage coming any time soon

Nah, russia would have stopped them and the invasion of Manchuria severely out streched them

>Implying Russia cared about the chinks

They cared about japanese encroaching in thier eastern territories

You forget that a lot of that region was less Russia than no man's land after the Japan Russia war.
They didn't had to defend, they'd had to expand to fight Japanese troops..

Around that time, Germany had started messing with Russia as well. Splitting their forces like that would not have done them a whole lot of good.

@johnfrum Russians would have had to use more divisions to defend a larger stretch of land + at the beginning the Manchurian army was still a formidable force

On the topic of Chinese military. Where do Chinese soldiers predominantly come from ? City or countryside?

R E G I O N L O C K C H I N A

Even though I don't play the game. It's shit <:alismirk:230784726615588865>

I tried it yesterday

The idea is super fun

But it needs to be polished up quite a bit

The movement is sluggish to me and I don't know how shooting works

And melee doesn't work at all

i like it. has a lot of points where you just sit and contemplate about ur next moves, i havnt found a game where ur forced into that or die

you can head shot someone with a punch

feels good man

@Deleted User they're probably tier-88 nongmin

@ferongr can you elaborate ? I have no clue what those are

tier-88 means shitty inland city

tier-1 cities are cities like Shenzen etc

nongmin = "country bumpkin", basically people from the inland low tier cities

used to be poor and are the epitome of the disgusting chinese with no manners

But tough people I take ?

it doesn't matter, basic training molds you to be tough

or you flunk out
