15 Sept 1926 Jahr - Chaos in the Kuomintang Army

Beschreibung:

Demoralized by their failure to take Wuchang and the fall of Guangzhou, talk of desertion begins to spread throughout the ranks of the KMT forces in Hubei, Hunan, and Guangdong. Once scattered reports begin arrive from Chiang's retreating forces, this only worsens, and chaos ensues as various units defect, desert, or outright disintegrate. This prompts much of the leadership to flee abroad, either to France or to the newly established socialist regime in Calcutta, India. Some forces stubbornly hold out, but the last major NRA force surrenders in February. KMT activists retreat into the coastal concessions and countryside, where they continue to foment rebellion.
