Battle of Taierzhuang (1938)

On the Chinese Revolution map as “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.
