One side of the Central Plains War was the national party member, Chiang Kai-shek, Zhang Xueliang, and the other side was the national party member, Yan Xishan, Feng Yuxiang and Li Zongren. The two sides spent millions of troops fighting fiercely for seven months in more than a dozen provinces with a population of more than 200 million.
The influence of primitive war on expanding data;
Chiang Kai-shek completely defeated the military force that threatened him the most. Later, Chiang Kai-shek detained Hu, which led to a new "confrontation between Ning and Yue" and quickly formed an unprecedented alliance of anti-Chiang forces within the Kuomintang.
The Northwest Army had strong fighting capacity but poor armament, and initially disintegrated after the Central Plains War. The Northeast Army has strong armament, but poor combat capability. Fortunately, it was not affected by the war. There is little difference between the fighting capacity and the military strength of the Jinsui Army, and it has not been affected by the war. The new Guangxi department had poor armament and strong combat power, but its strength was greatly weakened due to the battle between Jiang and Gui. After the Central Plains War, great changes have taken place in the situation.
The Northwest Army led by Feng Yuxiang completely disintegrated and split into four factions. Jin Suijun, led by Yan Xishan, was also hit hard, and the internal generals Shang Zhen and Fu were also unified into one department.
Because the Northeast Army entered Guanzhong to help the Central Army, it gained the territory of North China after the war, followed by a large number of remnants of the Northwest Army and Jinsui Army factions, becoming the second largest military faction in China. After the new Guangxi clique retreated back to Guangxi, it protected itself with the help of Chen's Guangdong army. At the same time, Huang, one of the faction leaders, withdrew from the new Guangxi system.
After the Central Plains War, the influence of some small warlords was also affected to varying degrees. Fan Zhongxiu, the leader of Henan Army after the founding of the People's Republic of China, was killed and his faction was incorporated after the war. The Northwest Army led by Shi Yousan was incorporated by Zhang Xueliang. Later, because of the plot to seize North China, it was hit by Chiang Kai-shek and Zhang Xueliang, which led to the annihilation of the whole army.
The Shaanxi army led by Yang Hucheng gained Shaanxi territory by assisting Chiang Kai-shek. The Guangdong Army led by Zhang Fakui had to belong to the New Guangxi Department because of the huge loss of combat effectiveness. The Guangdong army led by Chen did not get any benefits after helping Chiang Kai-shek, but it led to the intensification of contradictions. Later, under the pretext of Hu's imprisonment, he joined forces with Xingui to oppose Chiang Kai-shek.
The Central Plains War greatly damaged the vitality of the country. "The exhaustion of national strength is like a candle before the wind"? . The entry of the Northeast Army led to the emptiness of the border defense. After entering the customs, Zhang Xueliang and the Northeast Army turned their attention to North China affairs, giving Japan an opportunity. On the same day a year later (19319.09.18), Japan launched the "September 18th Incident".
The Central Plains War weakened the Kuomintang and the local powerful factions of the Central Committee, consumed their strength, and at the same time abandoned the attack on the Red Army, which became a favorable condition for the existence and development of the Red Army and the Red Zone under the leadership of the Central Committee. During the Central Plains War, the peasant war area led by China * * * has spread to Jiangxi, Hubei, Fujian, Guangdong, Guangxi, Hunan, Henan, Sichuan, Anhui, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and other provinces1/kloc-0.
The Red Army * * * established the 14 Army with a population of about 654.38+million, and established bases in Central China (southern Jiangxi and western Fujian), Hunan, Hubei, Anhui, Honghu, western Hunan, Fujian, Zhejiang and Jiangxi, Youjiang and Guangxi. The revolutionary forces developed rapidly and made great achievements. After the Central Plains War, Chiang Kai-shek began to launch the first military "encirclement and suppression" against the Central Soviet Area, and once again fell into a chaotic situation of infighting politically.
