Chinese don't understand this.
Soviet didn't captured Manchuria to help China, it invaded Manchuria to gain some last minute spoil of war, which included Japanese held Kuril Islands + Sakahlin islands, influence over Manchuria + Korea, 600k Japanese PoW for slave labor in Siberia, ect.
Ultimately, the army the Soviets used to invade Manchuria was to gain concession over China (both KMT and Future CCP), which includes independence over Mongolia (became a Soviet slave), mineral rights over XinJiang, all of Japanese industrial equipments in Manchuria, ect.
Later USSR used China in Korean War, and overcharged China for technical assistance.
So much for being a victor of WW2.
