Taierzhuang

Mar–Apr 1938 — Li Zongren’s regional armies encircle and maul two Japanese brigades in a canal town — China’s first clear victory, worth divisions in morale. It buys the time to trade Xuzhou for the interior. The lesson both sides draw: this war will be long.
This is one scene of Chapter 8 — The Japanese War Begins in China in Revolution, 1911–1949.
