Xu-Beng Campaign [Huai-Hai Campaign]
Xu-Beng Campaign [Huai-Hai Campaign] by Ah Xiang [Excerpts from “Civil Wars: 1945-1950” ] Before the Liao-Shen Campaign rolled to the end, CCP Eastern China Field Army completed the campaign against the Jinan city with the help of Wu Hualong's defection. Liu Zhi's KMT army group, with 600,000 troops, failed to give the relief to Jinan the provincial city of Shandong Province, but instead concentrated onto the cities of Shangqiu, Xuzhou and coastal Lianyungang, along the railway lines of Jin-Pu & Long-Hai. To the right side of Liu Zhi would be KMT's Huang Baitao Army Group that was in charge of the area between Long-Hai Railway to the north and the Huai-he River to the south and between coastal Lianyungang to the east and Xuzhou to the west. Mao Tse-tung continued the communist strategy of attacking one outpost while impeding or eliminating the enemy relief. To link up the “liberated area” of Shandong Province and northern Jiangsu Province as well as to cut off the right arm of Liu Zhi's army in Xuzhou, Mao Tse-tung proposed to first attack Huang Baitao's army group. For sake of taking out Huang Baitao's army, Mao Tse-tung instructed that more than half of CCP Eastern China Field Army should be deployed against the relief armies of Qiu Qingquan and Li Mi. During the campaign, the original communist plan changed midway when Liu Zhi's KMT army in Xuzhou fled to the west and Huang Wei's KMT army group came north, culminating in an expanded Huai-Hai Campaign that would suck in Huang Wei & Du Yuming's army groups.

The History and Politics of Taiwan's February 28
The History and Politics of Taiwan’s February 28 Incident, 1947- 2008 by Yen-Kuang Kuo BA, National Taiwan Univeristy, Taiwan, 1991 BA, University of Victoria, 2007 MA, University of Victoria, 2009 A Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in the Department of History © Yen-Kuang Kuo, 2020 University of Victoria All rights reserved. This dissertation may not be reproduced in whole or in part, by photocopy or other means, without the permission of the author. ii Supervisory Committee The History and Politics of Taiwan’s February 28 Incident, 1947- 2008 by Yen-Kuang Kuo BA, National Taiwan Univeristy, Taiwan, 1991 BA, University of Victoria, 2007 MA, University of Victoria, 2009 Supervisory Committee Dr. Zhongping Chen, Supervisor Department of History Dr. Gregory Blue, Departmental Member Department of History Dr. John Price, Departmental Member Department of History Dr. Andrew Marton, Outside Member Department of Pacific and Asian Studies iii Abstract Taiwan’s February 28 Incident happened in 1947 as a set of popular protests against the postwar policies of the Nationalist Party, and it then sparked militant actions and political struggles of Taiwanese but ended with military suppression and political persecution by the Nanjing government. The Nationalist Party first defined the Incident as a rebellion by pro-Japanese forces and communist saboteurs. As the enemy of the Nationalist Party in China’s Civil War (1946-1949), the Chinese Communist Party initially interpreted the Incident as a Taiwanese fight for political autonomy in the party’s wartime propaganda, and then reinterpreted the event as an anti-Nationalist uprising under its own leadership.

The Darkest Red Corner Matthew James Brazil
The Darkest Red Corner Chinese Communist Intelligence and Its Place in the Party, 1926-1945 Matthew James Brazil A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a Doctor of Philosophy Department of Government and International Relations Business School University of Sydney 17 December 2012 Statement of Originality This is to certify that to the best of my knowledge, the content of this thesis is my own work. This thesis has not been submitted previously, either in its entirety or substantially, for a higher degree or qualifications at any other university or institute of higher learning. I certify that the intellectual content of this thesis is the product of my own work and that all the assistance received in preparing this thesis and sources has been acknowledged. Matthew James Brazil i ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Before and during this project I met a number of people who, directly or otherwise, encouraged my belief that Chinese Communist intelligence was not too difficult a subject for academic study. Michael Dutton and Scot Tanner provided invaluable direction at the very beginning. James Mulvenon requires special thanks for regular encouragement over the years and generosity with his time, guidance, and library. Richard Corsa, Monte Bullard, Tom Andrukonis, Robert W. Rice, Bill Weinstein, Roderick MacFarquhar, the late Frank Holober, Dave Small, Moray Taylor Smith, David Shambaugh, Steven Wadley, Roger Faligot, Jean Hung and the staff at the Universities Service Centre in Hong Kong, and the kind personnel at the KMT Archives in Taipei are the others who can be named. Three former US diplomats cannot, though their generosity helped my understanding of links between modern PRC intelligence operations and those before 1949.

Communist Instigation & Guangxi Province Trotskyists
Communist Instigation & Guangxi Province Trotskyists by Ah Xiang Excerpts from “Tragedy of Chinese Revolution” at http://www.republicanchina.org/terror.html For updates and related articles, check http://www.republicanchina.org/RepublicanChina-pdf.htm Xie Hegeng was dispatched to Southwestern China by CCP in the autumn of 1934 for instigating Bai Chongxi's rebellion against Chiang Kai-shek. Xie Hegeng was selected for the task for his father's connection with Bai Chongxi's uncle. For secrecy's sake, Xie Hegeng was ordered to have vertical contacts with several communist leaders, only, including Zhou Enlai, Dong Biwu, Li Kenong and Xuan Xiafu. Xuan Xiafu, who planned to continue his work inside of Northwestern Armies [i.e, the armies controlled by Sun Dianying & Sun Liangcheng], was ordered to go to southern China to assist Xie Hegeng. Xuan Xiafu obtained a recommendation letter from Ji Hongchang. General Ji Hongchang, before his death, had written a reference letter for Xie Hegeng to bring to Feng Yuxiang who was retiring on Mt Tai-shan around mid-June of 1934. Feng Yuxiang was asked to recommend Xie Hegeng for a job inside of Gui-xi [Guangxi Province] Army. On Mt Taishan, Xie Hegeng and Feng Yuxiang discussed 19th Route's heroic fighting during the Shanghai Incident of Jan 28th 1932 as well as the failure of Li Jishen's Fujian Mutiny in Jan 1934. Xie Hegeng also obtained the help of Feng Yuxiang in calling Li Jishen for a separate recommendation letter to Bai Chongxi & Li Zongren. Xie Hegeng was offered a job as an economic researcher in Industrial & Commercial Bureau of Guangxi Prov.

Chiang remains an ambitious, wily man who against the odds established his leadership of the Nationalist Party and the Nanking government. Once in position, he intended to build a modern autocratic Chinese state that combined Neo-Confucian values and many qualities of European fascism. Chiangs marriage into the Soong family proved a key to winning over American support for his government.

Urban Development and Everyday Life of Ordinary Labourers in Wartime Chongqing: 1937-1945 Xiaolu Wu
Urban Development and Everyday Life of Ordinary Labourers in Wartime Chongqing: 1937-1945 Xiaolu Wu A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2016 School of Historical and Philosophical Inquiry Abstract After the outbreak of the Second Sino-Japanese war on 7th July 1937, Chongqing was set as the wartime capital of China. Before the war, Chongqing was a common commercial city in southwest of China. Due to geographical factors, the city was situated away from the political centre of China for a long time. Furthermore, as a part of Sichuan province the city greatly suffered because of the local warlords’ civil war from the 1920s to the 1930s. Although it was faced with many difficulties Chongqing still had some industrial and economic development with the support of local warlords. It laid a foundation for the future political and industrial development of Chongqing. After Chongqing became the wartime capital great changes happened. The city not only changed politically and economically, but it also changed socially because of the impact of these changes on the ordinary people. The social order and structure changed during wartime, while the ordinary people were re-made and re-shaped by the changing daily life. The Guomindang government reached the peak of its power during the war, while what was the distance between the power and the private space of ordinary people? The local individuals were deeply influenced by the political and historical events in their daily life. However they were not only observers of the historical changes that occurred around them but they can also claim ownership of the changes that they helped bring about.

HSIEH ABSTRACT This Article examines the evolution of international law as a professional and intellectual discipline in the Republic of China (ROC), which has governed Mainland China (1912–1949) and post-1949 Taiwan. The ROC’s centennial development fundamentally shaped modern China’s course of foreign relations and postwar global governance. The Article argues that statism, pragmatism, and idealism define the major features of the ROC’s approach to international law. These characteristics transformed the law of nations into universally valid normative claims and prompted modern China’s intellectual focus on the civilized nation concept. First, the Article analyzes the professionalization of the discipline of international law.

Zhongguo -- the cradle of civilization – had finally achieved a modicum of stability after a century of chaotic lawlessness and brutality, marred by foreign intervention, occupation, and two civil wars. But it could have been different. Instead of the communist Chairman Mao ushering in the dictatorship of the people, it could have been the Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek, of the Nationalist
