mar 17, 1928 - The War in China Becomes a Stalemate

Description:

Expecting most hostile forces to be occupied in the North and East, a Shanxi expedition striking south to take Luoyang is surprised, cut off, and eliminated by a superior Qing army, while Tang Jiyao’s troops are bogged down in the mountains of Sichuan and Western Hunan. With a breakthrough nearly impossible at Shanhaiguan, as it had been four years earlier, the war thus enters a stalemate.
