How many troops were there in Guizhou during World War II?
During World War II, Guizhou had more than 20,000 troops.

After 19 12, Yunnan warlords once occupied Guizhou and Guangxi, thus controlling the three provinces. Yunnan warlords controlled Guizhou Province 10 for many years. After Yunnan warlords were expelled from Guizhou province, Sichuan warlords occupied Guizhou province. At this stage, Guizhou Province did not form an independent warlord system, but belonged to other warlord groups.

In the late 1920s, Sichuan warlords were finally driven out of Guizhou Province, and the rudiment of Guizhou warlords was basically established. Please note that the warlords in Guizhou are not monolithic, and several factions compete for hegemony. Although Guizhou warlord group has been established, the control layer and factions of Guizhou warlords are constantly changing. At first, there were only more than 20,000 people in Gwan Chin, which had three divisions.

1928, after the end of the Northern Expedition, the Qian army in Guizhou Province was reorganized into 25 armies by Nanjing, with 5 divisions, namely 1 division, 2 divisions, 3 divisions, 4 divisions and instructors. Please note that none of the five divisions of Guizhou Army can be fully staffed, and each division has a large number of vacancies. According to the calculation, the strength of each division is only between 6000 and 8000.

In addition, the officers and men of the Guizhou army are called "double spear soldiers", holding hanyang in one hand and opium pipe in the other. The fighting capacity of the money army is not strong. A general of the Red Army 1 later recalled: "The Guizhou Army and the Yunnan Army are two sheep, as fierce as tigers and as evil as wolves." In the end, there were only 20 thousand troops left.

The troops sent by Nanjing then entered Guizhou province, with more than 65,438+10,000 people, and the Guizhou military warlords could not resist. Finally, the designation of the 25th Army University was revoked, and finally it was merged into other units. In this way, Guizhou warlord group collapsed and was annexed by Nanjing. The result of the warlord regime in Guizhou.
