回复：扯淡，你以为地方军阀会与红军拼老本吗？

No question that the local warloads did not fight wholeheartedly for Chiang Kai-shek. But we are missing the very crucial point. How did the Red Army arrived at An Shun Chan (phonetically) ?. Where was the pursuing Central Army under Shih Yu? The Central Army was days away from the Red Army. How could this happen?Because of Mao's tactical move (such as Cross the Red Water 4 times) that escaped and avoided the pursuit of the powerful Central Army. Give credit to Mao whether you like it or not. As Chou En-lai said privately to his surrounding workers, you would not realize Mao's great military talent if you did not particiapte in the Long March.
