Description: Stalin was a master of deception disinformation and camouflage by means of which he gained supremacy over China and defeated imperialism on Chinese soil. This book examines Stalin's covert operations in his hunt for supremacy. By the late 1920s Britain had ceded place to Japan as Stalin's main enemy in Asia. By seducing Japan deeply into China Stalin successfully turned Japan's aggression into a weapon of its own destruction. The book examines Stalin's covert operations from the murder of the Manchurian warlord Zhang Zuolin in 1928 and the publication of the forged Tanaka Memorial in 1929, to Stalin's hidden role in Japan's invasion of Manchuria in 1931, the outbreak of all - out war between China and Japan in 1937, and Japan's defeat in 1945. In the shadow of these and other events we find Stalin and his secret operatives including many Chinese and Japanese collaborators most notably Zhang Xueliang and K moto Daisaku the self - professed assassin of Zhang Zuolin. The book challenges accounts of the turbulent history of inter - war East Asia that have ignored or minimized Stalin's presence and instead exposes and analyzes Stalin's secret modus operandi modernized as hybrid war in today's Russia. The book is essential for students and specialists of Stalin China the Soviet Union Japan and East Asia.
