Comrades, all officers and soldiers of the Artillery Regiment, the Eighth Route Army Artillery Regiment has been established for one year. I hope that you will strive in the study of political and military subjects and technical skills to forge a powerful military corps for the War of Resistance Against Japan, and to achieve the objective of being ever-victorious and all-conquering in battle. Win glory for the nation, win the model status for the Eighth Route Army. Mao Zedong
