actually, 3 million chinese only referred to chinese soldiers. look at this link provided by my bro:

notice that chinese civilian casualties was N/A, cause i think it's hard to keep track.
man Japanese has been killing chinese since 1904 russo-japanese war in manchuria. japanese used chinese civilians to test their poison gas, disected live human and all crap since 1931 when japanese took over manchuria. and as u know more ppl were killed when japanese launched full invasion of China from 1937-1945.
i heard (long time ago) that an estimation of 30 million chinese were killed in ww2? not sure but i believe the # must be enormous.
