may be that the Red Army team is too dispersed and has not been uniformly organized. This leads to the confusion of troops used by the Red Army teams in major bases, and even the same situation occurs. It has not been unified and adapted like it was later, during the Liberation War.
For example, in the revolutionary war era, the first unit born: Red Fourth Army , this number. In the history of the Red Army, it has appeared three times. That is to say, during the ten-year Agrarian Revolutionary War, a total of three Red Fourth Army were established. The first Red Fourth Army, established in

This army is the first unit born in the history of the People's Army. As for why the number of troops is the Red Fourth Army?
should be related to Ye Ting's independent regiment, because this force was affiliated with the Fourth Army of the National Revolutionary Army during the Northern Expedition during the Northern Expedition .
After the establishment of the Fourth Army, the first commander was Commander-in-Chief Zhu, with two divisions under his command. Soon after, the 12th Division was added, totaling three divisions. The army existed for four and a half years, and had a total of three commanders. The first was Commander-in-Chief Zhu, the second was the famous Lin Shuai, and the third was Wang Liang, who was from Chongqing. He graduated from the fifth issue of the Whampoa Military Academy, and participated in the Autumn Harvest Uprising of . Because of his bravery in combat and bravery, he took over the position of Lin Shuai and became the third commander of the Red Fourth Army.
After the Red Fourth Army was abolished at the end of 1932, the army number was reorganized into the 2nd Division, which was affiliated with the Red First Army.
The second Red Fourth Army was born in 1931 and is located in the Hubei-Henan-Anhui base.
On January 15, 1931, after the Red Army and the Red 15th Army in the Hubei-Henan-Anhui base area successfully met, due to the incomplete personnel system of the two troops, after discussion, they were merged and reorganized into one army, the number was the Fourth Army of the Workers and Peasants, with two divisions under their jurisdiction, with about 10,000 people.
The commander was Xu Jishen, the famous general of the Red Army, and the deputy commander was Xu Shuai, the commander-in-chief of the Red Fourth Front Army, and there was also a famous general of the Red Army, Cai Shenxi, who served as the division commander. Such personnel configuration was the top-notch at that time, because the elite soldiers and generals from the Hubei-Henan-Anhui base areas gathered in the Red Fourth Army.
After this, three famous Red Army generals served as commanders of the Red Fourth Army, namely Wang Hongkun, Xu Shiyou, and Chen Zaidao. These three generals were lucky and all witnessed the victory of the revolution. In 1955, all were awarded the rank of generals and became a famous founding general of the country.
After the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japan, the Red Fourth Army was adapted into the 385th Brigade of the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army, and was devoted to the War of Resistance against Japan to defend the country.
The third Red Fourth Army was born in June 1928 and is located in the western Hunan-Hubei base. The commander of this unit is the famous CEO He. However, this Red Fourth Army has existed for a relatively short time.
In 1930, after the Red Fourth Army met with the Red Sixth Army of Duan Dechang , it was merged into Red Second Army . The Red Fourth Army was also adapted into , the Red Second Army, and the commander was still the same as General He.
