The new Guangxi clan refers to warlords and internal factions of the Chinese Kuomintang, represented by those born in Guangxi such as Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi, who rose in the 1920s compared to the old Guangxi clan.

New Guangxi refers to the internal faction of warlords and Chinese Kuomintang , which rose in the 1920s relative to old Guangxi , which were represented by Li Zongren , Bai Chongxi and other Guangxi . Guangxi has always been in a remote and backward place in China in history, with relatively backward economy and culture. Later, due to the civil war between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, the Kuomintang lost, and the new Guangxi clique also collapsed.

Rise

Founding of the New Guangxi system

Li Zongren, who was the commander of Lin Hu's headquarters of the Sixth Army of the National Guarding Army, was unwilling to go to Guangdong with his boss after the Second Guangdong-Guangxi War, and led more than a thousand people from his troops to the 60,000 mountains in Guangxi to develop. Li Zongren took the initiative to contact his classmates Huang Shaohong and Bai Chongxi to serve in Guangxi Army Primary School. In May 1922, he established his own banner as "Commander-in-Chief of the Second Route of Guangxi Autonomous Army". Li Zongren's troops controlled seven counties and cities including Yulin and Rongxian, and after integrating their allies, the military strength increased to more than 3,000. After that, Li Zongren once nominally accepted the adaptation of Lu Rongting's , renamed " Guangxi Army Fifth Independent Brigade ". During this period, he opened the Yulin Cadre Coaching Officer and the NCO Training Brigade to train officers, sergeant commanders and corps. These measures laid the foundation for the combat effectiveness of the later New Guangxi Army. Soon, the Li Zongren coalition army grew to more than 6,000.

In June 1923, Bai Chongxi visited Sun Yat-sen in Guangzhou. With the support of Sun, Huang Shao-hung conquered Wuzhou, an important town in eastern Guizhou under the name of "Commander-in-Chief of the Riots Army in Guangxi". The new Guangxi clan was officially decoupled from the old Guangxi clan in politics and began to grow in Guangxi. In October of the same year, "Li, Huang, and Bai" joined the reorganized Kuomintang, and its troops were renamed "Guangxi Dinggui Anti-Thief Alliance". In early 1924, Sun appointed Li as the supervisor of Guangxi Province's appeasement, Huang was the chief of staff of the appeasement association, and Bai was the chief of staff of the army.

Unified Guangxi

1924 On May 23, 1924, Li issued the "Declaration on Unified Guangxi" and began to gradually unify Guangxi by force. Li, Huang and Bai adopted the strategy of " in conjunction with vertical and horizontal " and first promoted Lu Yungao's troops. Later, they took advantage of the fierce battle between Lu Rongting and Shen Hongying, and attacked Lu Rongting from north to south. In the autumn of the same year, they defeated Lu Rongting's troops and captured the provincial capital Nanning ; then they fought a decisive battle with Shen Hongying, and by April 1925, they eliminated their forces and unified Guangxi. The old Guangxi system was destroyed at this point.

During the decisive battle between Shen Hongying in the new Guangxi regime, Sun Yat-sen died of critical illness in Beijing. Subsequently, the Yunnan warlords Tang Jiyao contacted Guangdong warlords Chen Jiongming , Deng Benyin , Liu Zhenhuan and others, preparing to go east to Guangdong to overthrow the Guangzhou Kuomintang government. Li Zongren refused to cooperate with Tang Jiyao, and Tang Jiyao sent Long Yun, Lu Han, Tang Jiyu and others to lead 70,000 Yunnan Army and to enter Guangxi in three ways. From February to July 1925, after Kunlun Pass , Liuzhou , Shapu and Nanning, the new Guangxi clique finally defeated the three Yunnan troops. On July 22, all the remnants of the Yunnan Army retreated back to Yunnan. The Yunnan Army system, which was trained by famous general Cai E and was well-equipped, has since been slumped.

surrendered to the National Government

, and supported the Guangzhou National Government. In October 1925, when the National Government was expeditioning Chen Jiongming for the second eastern expedition, Xiong Kewu, Deng Benyin, Lin Junting, Shen Baofan and others saw that Guangzhou was empty, so they took the opportunity to rebel and organized more than 30,000 rebels to besiege Guangzhou. The National Government then ordered Li Zongren's troops to go out to rescue the siege. Almost the entire army of the New Guangxi Army was dispatched, and fiercely fought until December 7, and finally wiped out all the rebels. At the same time, Chiang Kai-shek's Eastern Expedition Army also won a great victory, and Chen Jiongming's troops were completely destroyed. Guangdong and Guangxi are completely unified under the National Government. In March 1926, Gui Army was adapted into Seventh Army of the National Revolutionary Army, with Li Zongren as the commander, Huang Shaohong as the party representative, and Bai Chongxi as the chief of staff, with more than 40,000 people in the entire army. At that time, the National Government had seven armies under its jurisdiction, except for the Seventh Army, and the other six armies were all represented by members of the Communist Party of China. However, the new Guangxi Department also sent Li Zongyi, Wang Gongdu, Wei Yongcheng, Xie Cangsheng and others to study at Sun Yat-sen University in Moscow.

Huang Shaohong

The new Guangxi Party refused to be the main building of the Guangxi Provincial Party Committee of the Kuomintang by the Party Central Committee, and the Guangzhou National Government was forced to agree that Li Zongren and Huang Shaohong should serve as the chief and deputy chairman of the provincial party committee; but as a compromise, the new Guangxi Party also accepted the dispatch of Communist Party members of the National Government to Liang Liudu , Zhou Xihuan, Chen Liya and others to serve as the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee (later during the April 12th incident, the three were executed). Huang Rikui, a member of the Communist Party of China, served as director of the Political Department of the Seventh Army, and Mameyev served as Russian military adviser. After the Northern Expedition began, the two men could not work normally under the pressure of Li Zongren and Huang Shaohong, and returned to Guangzhou one after another.

Northern Expedition

Under the mediation of Feng Yuxiang , Nanjing and Wuhan agreed to continue the Northern Expedition in separate routes. Li Zongren was appointed commander-in-chief of the Third Route Army of the National Revolutionary Army. On May 11, the Seventh Army occupied Chao County and defeated Zhilu Army in Zhegao on the 13th. On the evening of the 15th, the Seventh Army defeated the Zhilu Army's general Ma Ji, in Liangyuan, Hefei, and led more than 40,000 elite troops and more than 1,000 Belarusian cavalry. On the 20th, he conquered Fengyang again, on the 22nd, he occupied the important town of Bengbu, and on June 2nd, he conquered Xuzhou. Xia Wei, the commander of the 1st Division of the 7th Army, was promoted to the acting commander of the 7th Army. On June 23, the Seventh Army attacked Shandong, occupied Yi County on the 25th, and wiped out the elite Ma Yuren Division of the Zhilu Army at Lincheng on the 27th.

In early July, after the Wuhan army defeated Zhang Xueliang's Fengjun in Xuchang and Zhengzhou, they suddenly turned around from the front line and headed south; in mid-July, two 300,000 troops of Tang Shengzhi and Zhang Fakui gathered in East Hubei and to fight eastward to defeat Chiang Kai-shek. Li Zongren immediately led the Seventh Army to head south from the Shandong front line, stationed in Wuhu and Anqing front lines. After the 7th Army withdrew, the Zhili army Sun Chuanfang, and the Zhili army Xu Kun, Xu Yuanquan and others formed a coalition to counterattack Xuzhou. The Northern Expedition Army was defeated and Xuzhou was lost. By August 5, Chiang Kai-shek led the defeated army back to Jiangnan, and all the strongholds were occupied by Sun Chuanfang's army. After Li Zongren learned that his friendly army was defeated in Xuzhou, he gave up Anqing. The entire Seventh Army retreated to Wuhu and Nanjing. The Han Dynasty Tang Shengzhi Army then occupied Anqing and gathered to the east.

won the center

Chiang Kai-shek stepped down

8 In August, the new Guangxi faction successfully joined forces with He Yingqin to force Chiang Kai-shek stepped down to achieve the unification of the two national governments of Nanjing and Wuhan, known in history as the "Ninghan merger". After Chiang Kai-shek stepped down, Li Zongren immediately expanded the Second Division and Third Division of the Seventh Army into the 19th Army and the 13th Army of the National Revolutionary Army. The former commander of the Second Division, Hu Zongduo, was appointed as the commander of the 19th Army. Bai Chongxi served as the commander of the 13th Army, and Bai Chongxi reorganized the remaining troops of the Seventh Army in Guangxi into the 15th Army of the National Revolutionary Army. Huang Shaohong personally served as the commander. The principal of Central Army Officer's School (i.e. Whampoa Military Academy ) was also served by Bai Chongxi until Chiang returned. At the end of August, in order to attack Chiang Kai-shek's power, the Guangxi figure Zhang Dingfan was appointed mayor of Shanghai. The Seventh Army then defeated the invading Sun Chuanfang's troops in the Battle of Longtan. The Battle of Longtan caused all the losses of Sun Chuanfang's army, and Sun Chuanfang faded out of Chinese politics from then on.

Guangzhou Incident and Deportation of Wang

On November 16, 1927, Zhang Fakui launched a coup in Guangzhou under the instructions of Wang Zhaoming , attempting to assassinate Huang Shaohong, and Huang escaped by chance. In December, Zhang Fakui's troops fought a bloody battle with the 15th Army of the Seventh Army. General Xu Zhirui of Zhang's troops was killed in battle, Huang Zhenqiu was seriously injured, and the remaining troops were led by Xue Yue, Miao Peinan and Zhu Huiri to flee to Jiangxi. Zhang Fakui and Huang Qixiang left the wild and went into exile overseas. After the war, Huang Xuchu, the commander of the Second Division of the 15th Army, was promoted to acting commander, and the newly formed Wang Yingyu Independent Division was stationed for a long time until the end of the Jianggui War. After the Xin Guangxi clique eliminated the Tang and Zhang ministries in the military, it launched a strong political offensive, requiring that anyone who opposed the Nanjing National Government during the "Four One and Second Purge" period would not be allowed to hold leadership positions within the party, and pointed the finger at Wang Jingwei . Li Zongren directly claimed at the Party Affairs Conference that Wang Jingwei was a traitor of the party and the country; Bai Chongxi even claimed that he would arrest and execute Wang Jingwei. Wang Zhaoming's family was finally defeated by New Guangxi system , and resigned on December 15, and Wang himself went into exile to France.

In less than half a year, the new Guangxi regime drove Chiang Kai-shek, Sun Chuanfang, Wang Zhaoming, Tang Shengzhi, Zhang Fakui and the Communist Party out of the Chinese political center one by one, and won the Nanjing National Government. During the period when the New Guangxi clique dominated the National Government, it focused on its own system in the military and joined forces with He Yingqin and Cheng Qian ; politically rehabilitated the Xishan Conference faction and restored its party membership and leadership position within the party. However, the two items of party work and finance were ignored, and the brothers of Chen Guofu, Chen Lifu, , , Song Ziwen, , , Kong Xiangxi, and others were not replaced, so that the key departments such as the Central Party Department, , Central Bank, and the Ministry of Finance were still controlled by Chiang Zhongzheng, becoming an important basis for Chiang's future comeback.

setbacks and the second Northern Expedition

1928, Chiang Kai-shek was able to make a comeback by taking advantage of the Guangzhou Incident and the impact of the "Guizhou dynasty Wang". On January 9, Chiang Kai-shek officially reinstated as commander-in-chief of the National Revolutionary Army in Nanjing. Bai Chongxi's 13th Army was forced to withdraw from Nanjing and be transferred to Wuhan. The development of the new Guangxi clan has suffered setbacks.

html In early April, Li Zongren was appointed by the National Government as the commander-in-chief of the Fourth Army of the National Revolutionary Army and chairman of the Wuhan Political Branch, and Bai Chongxi served as the deputy commander-in-chief. The Fourth Army is mainly composed of the direct troops of the New Guangxi clan and the adapted former Tang Shengzhi clan. It has a total of 16 armies and 6 independent divisions, with more than 200,000 troops, and its jurisdiction is Guangdong, Guangxi and Lianghu. On April 10, Chiang Kai-shek commanded the four armies to launch a second Northern Expedition to attack the northern warlords headed by the Fengtian clan Zhang Zuolin . The Fourth Army took Bai Chongxi as the commander-in-chief of the front enemy and led the 13th Army and Tang Shengzhi's adapted troops to participate in the Second Northern Expedition. By May 30, after Bai Chongxi's troops lifted Yan Xishan's siege, they took the lead in arriving in the southern suburbs of Beijing. On June 4, Zhang Zuolin was killed in Huanggutun by the Japanese Kwantung Army. Zhang Zuolin's son Zhang Xueliang announced that Northeast China flag change . The new Guangxi clique expanded to Pingjin and Hebei regions with the "Second Northern Expedition". On June 14, the editorial of the "Ta Kung Pao": The Guangxi army's attack to Beijing was an unprecedented event in Chinese history. At this time, the new Guangxi clan reached its peak in development.

In October 1928, the Seventh Army was reorganized into the 15th Division of the National Revolutionary Army in accordance with the designation of the National Government. Xia Wei served as the division commander and the fourth brigade: Li Mingrui, the 4th Brigade Commander, Li Chaofang, the 5th Brigade Commander, 6th Brigade Commander, Yin Chenggang, 3, and Yang Tenghui, the 7th Brigade Commander. In the same month, Li Zongren allocated funds to rebuild the National Wuhan University.

The Central Plains War

Two Jianggui Wars

1929, the Jianggui War broke out between Chiang Kai-shek and the New Guangxi faction due to a territorial battle. Chiang Kai-shek used Tang Shengzhi's influence on his old subordinates to disintegrate the new Guangxi troops in Hebei, and Bai Chongxi fled alone. In Hubei, Chiang Kai-shek took advantage of internal conflicts in the new Guangxi clan and successfully led to the former new Guangxi clan character Li Mingrui and Yu Zuobai's turn against him. Finally, Chiang Kai-shek mobilized political forces and warlords from all sides to siege Guangxi, and the New Guangxi clique was defeated. Li Zongren, Bai Chongxi and others fled abroad, and the New Guangxi troops suffered heavy losses.

Central Plains War

Chiang Kai-shek then appointed Yu Zuobai and Li Mingrui to take charge of Guangxi. Li Zongren, Bai Chongxi and others took advantage of the chaos to return to Guangxi and mastered some of the armed forces. Chiang Kai-shek ordered the Guangdong army to attack Guangxi, but the Xinguang faction contacted Zhang Fakui and Xue Yue's troops to attack Guangdong first, and the battle between Guangxi and Zhang's attack on Guangdong broke out. The two sides won and lost each other, thus forming a confrontation.

participated in the Central Plains War

In May 1930, the new Guangxi clique went north to participate in the Central Plains War. In the early days, the new Guangxi clique went north from Guilin and became unstoppable, but in the end the military was unfavorable and it was defeated. In the end, the three major factions of the Xin Guangxi Clan, Feng Yuxiang and Yan Xishan were all defeated by Chiang Kai-shek in the Central Plains War. Although the failure of the Central Plains War did not shake the rule of the new Guangxi clique. However, the second-ranked person Huang Shaohong left the New Guangxi clan at the end of the year. Without betraying the New Guangxi clan group and gaining the understanding of Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi, he went to Chiang Kai-shek to serve in the central government. The three-person system of the new Guangxi "Li Baihuang" system collapsed. However, Huang Shaohong did not actively work for Chiang Kai-shek.

While the New Guangxi Army failed to go north, Lu Han led the 3rd Division of Yunnan Army to take advantage of the situation and surrounded Nanning in mid-July. In September 1930, the Laurel Army launched a counterattack and lifted the siege of Nanning on October 10. By early November, Lu Han's army was defeated and the remaining troops fled back to Yunnan.In order to commend the 15th Army Wei Yunsong Division of the 15th Army for more than 2,000 people to defend Nanning's lonely city for three months, and to stay in the throne and wait for assistance without ammunition and food, Li Zongren announced that October 10 of each year will be a commemoration of the "Loyalty" festival.

In order to prevent the rebellion and surrender to the enemy within the group, Li Zongren established the Revolutionary Comrades Association of the Kuomintang on September 1, 1930 to organize it strictly. The most important department was the "Organization Training Committee", which was actually a spy intelligence agency, with Wang Gongdu as the director.

Governance of Guangxi

Oriental Sparta

In April 1932, the Nanjing National Government appointed Li Zongren as the director of Guangxi appeasement, Bai Chongxi served as deputy director, and Huang Xuchu was the chairman of the Guangxi Provincial Government, which was the "Last Li Baihuang" system. By the end of 1949, Huang Xuchu actually took charge of Guangxi for 19 years. His most outstanding achievement was to start Guangxi University and realize "high-end and primary national compulsory education" in Guangxi.

The governance of the new Guangxi system has gradually modernized Guangxi from a remote and backward province. Its main policies include the "three self" and the "three apartments" policies, which were called "Oriental Sparta" at the time and were also known as the "Three Principles of the People". Guangxi's politics, economy, science and technology, industry, education, culture, health, transportation, and shipping have made great progress. As of the outbreak of Anti-Japanese War, more than 24,000 kilometers of new highways have been opened, and the number of adult education has increased from less than 30,000 to nearly 1 million. Before the outbreak of the full-scale war of resistance, the New Guangxi clique established 10 arsenals in Guangxi; imported 60,000 German rifles; established Guangxi Aviation Military School, and attached a large aircraft accessories factory. Before the outbreak of the war of resistance, there were 60 British and Japanese fighters of various types. During the War of Resistance Against Japan, all the soldiers of Guangxi Air Force died in their country.

Guangdong-Guangzhou Incident

In June 1936, the New Guangxi Group, in conjunction with Guangdong-Guangzhou Chen Jitang , launched the Guangdong-Guangzhou Incident. The Second Plenary Session of the Fifth Central Committee of the Kuomintang resolved to abolish the Southwest Executive Department and the Political Committee and renamed the military chief of Guangdong and Guangxi. Because his subordinates, Yu Hanmou and others were bribed by Chiang Kai-shek, Chen Jitang was disappointed with his future and ran away from Hong Kong. Later, Chiang Kai-shek mobilized his troops to attack Guangxi, while the new Guangxi clique mobilized 200,000 troops to prepare for the battle. At the same time, Cai Tingkai sent the remaining troops of his failed Fujian Army to Guangxi, led by Qu Shounian and Weng Zhaoyuan. Later, Li Zongren reorganized him into the 176th Division of the 48th Army of the National Revolutionary Army (formerly the 15th Army), with the district as the commander of the division. Later, with the strong call for the cessation of internal struggle and the mediation of political forces from all parties, in mid-September, the New Guangxi faction and Chiang Kai-shek reached an agreement: the New Guangxi faction supported Chiang Kai-shek as the national leader; when the full-scale war of resistance began, the National Government sent troops to fight against Japan; Chiang Kai-shek promised to unswervingly the New Guangxi faction's dominance in Guangxi. The affairs of Guangdong and Guangxi have become peacefully resolved.

Participate in the War of Resistance Against Japan

Early

1937 Lugou Bridge Incident broke out. On August 2, Chiang Kai-shek appointed Bai Chongxi as the deputy chief of staff, and on the 28th, the National Government appointed Li Zongren as the commander-in-chief of the Fifth War Zone. The new Guangxi army immediately formed the 11th Army of the National Revolutionary Army (Commander-in-Chief General Li Pinxian ) and the 21st Army (Commander-in-Chief Liao Lei) to fight north, while the 16th Army (Commander-in-Chief General Hawei) stayed in Guangxi. This time, there were 100,000 recruits in Guangxi, with more than one million signings, and a lottery decision was required. At 10:10 on October 10, after completing the anti-Japanese mobilization and oath-taking work, Li Zongren flew to Nanjing to participate in the War of Resistance.

In October 1937, Chiang Kai-shek ordered Liao Lei's entire army to rush to Shanghai to participate in the Battle of Shanghai. In this battle, the 21st Army suffered serious losses due to the first three-dimensional battle with the modern Japanese army. Its main force, Xia Guozhang, Pang Hanzhen, Qin Lin, etc., were killed and seriously injured, and more than half of the grassroots officers and soldiers were injured. On November 12, the 21st Army withdrew from Shanghai, the 48th Army (Lieutenant General Wei Yunsong ) retreated to Changshu, and the 7th Army (Lieutenant General Zhou Zuhuang) blocked the Japanese 6th Division in Wuxing and Changxing. On the 26th, due to the loss of the Jiangyin Fortress in the Yangtze River, the Japanese army landed in a swarm. The 21st Army was ordered to retreat to western Zhejiang. Subsequently, the New Guangxi Army troops participated in the Huaihe Battle in northern Jiangsu.

Bai Chongxi and Li Zongren

mid-term

1939 In the Spring of Kunlun Pass, Bai Chongxi served as the director of the Guilin camp as the overall commander. In order to preserve the strength of the Guangxi clique, he tried his best to use non-Guique clique troops to fight. Xiawei's 16th Army only served as assist missions, fighting some "romantic battles" on the west side of Wuming and Zhuiqin Road, resulting in the failure of the battle.

Later

1944 During the Battle of Henan, Hunan and Guangxi, the strategic idea of ​​preserving strength within the New Guangxi clique and the emptiness of Guangxi, it failed to effectively counterattack the Japanese invasion. Fierce battles broke out with the Japanese army only in Guiping and other places. In the subsequent defensive battle in Guilin, the Guangxi defenders fought fiercely with the Japanese army, and the Japanese army used poison gas, among which the heroic deeds of 800 Qixingyan (Guilin) ​​killing three times the invading Japanese army, and finally all the members died for their country. After Guilin was captured, almost the entire city was destroyed. Compared with the long-term stalemate under the city of Hengyang , Guilin City quickly fell. After only 10 days of battle, the Japanese army successfully occupied Guilin and entered Liuzhou on the same day.

After the War of Resistance Against Japan, the early stage of civil war with the Kuomintang and the Communist Party

At the end of August 1945, Li Zongren was appointed as the director of the Beiping Headquarters, Chairman of the National Government, nominally commanding the five provinces and three cities of Ji, Shandong, Cha, Sui, Re, Ping, Tianjin and Qing. On October 3, the National Government restored Bai Chongxi's first-class general rank in the Army; on January 7, 1946, he became the commander-in-chief of the Army; on May 15 of the same year, Bai was appointed as the first Minister of National Defense of the Republic of China.

In November 1947, Chiang Kai-shek decided to hold the National Congress in March of the following year and elect the President and Vice President of the Republic of China. Under pressure, Li Zongren insisted on running for the vice president of the Republic of China. With the help of the Guangxi clan, he defeated Sun Ke, who was supported by Chiang Kai-shek, with 1,438 votes: 1,295 votes on April 29, 1948 and was elected as vice president.

On June 1, 1948, Chiang Kai-shek appointed He Yingqin as Minister of National Defense, and Bai Chongxi was transferred by Chiang to the commander-in-chief of the Central China Suppression. Bai refused to take office. Later, after Chiang agreed to the Central China Suppression General Office that the conditions for not being controlled by the Ministry of National Defense and the General Staff Headquarters and being directly responsible to the president, he went to Wuhan to take office on June 16. This move caused the Guangxi clique to control nearly 300,000 troops, and the new Guangxi clique's forces expanded again.

end-of-road

Li Zongren was acting president

At the end of 1948, after the three major battles, Chiang Kai-shek's Central Military Division suffered a severe blow, and the most combative force of the National Government was Bai Chongxi Central Suppression Headquarters. The Guangxi clique took the opportunity to force Chiang to step down, hoping to negotiate with the Communist Party with Li Zongren as the acting president, and further wanted to force Chiang to go abroad. Due to the urgency of the situation, Li Zongren finally softened his attitude and took over as Acting President of the Republic of China on January 21, 1949 and held peace talks with the Communist Party.

Li Zongren serves as acting president

Li Bai goes his way

After the People's Liberation Army crosses the river, Li Zongren flew to Guilin and is determined to reorganize the government on his own in Guangxi and break completely with Chiang Kai-shek's system. However, the basis for realizing this plan was the seven corps of 500,000 troops under Bai Chongxi. On April 29, Bai Chongxi flew away from Wuhan to Guilin to persuade Li Zongren. When the plane approached Guilin, it suddenly rained heavily, so Bai had to change to Guangzhou. That night, Chiang Kai-shek met Bai at the former site of the Whampoa Military Academy and persuaded Bai Chongxi to cooperate with Chiang. Since then, Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi have gone differently.
