Major achievements

1, Sichuan political reform

From 65438 to 0935, Liu Xiang, who became the chairman of the Sichuan provincial government, began to unify Sichuan's administration, finance, military and political affairs under the control of Chiang Kai-shek and the staff committee. In order to speed up the pace of Sichuan's reunification and promote local centralization, the first task is to break the defense zone and break away from local political power. As chairman, Liu Xiang took the lead in breaking the system of defense zones and separating the military and civilians from the local political power, thus making the warlords lose the basis of survival and opening the way for Sichuan's political reform.

On the second day of the Lugouqiao Incident, Liu Xiangdian proposed to Chiang Kai-shek: "Please join the war of resistance" and "electrify the whole country at the same time and call for a concerted war of resistance".

Speaking at the meeting, he pointed out: "Sichuan can send 300 thousand troops to supply tens of thousands of able-bodied men and tens of thousands of tons of grain."

Under the active promotion and supervision of Liu Xiang, the vanguard troops of Sichuan Anti-Japanese War split up in the northeast on September 1 day and went to the front line of anti-Japanese war.
