The Red Second Front Army was formerly known as the Red 26th Army where Xiao Ke and He Long were located, and originally belonged to the Red Army. Later, the encirclement and suppression of the national army became more and more serious. The central government decided to send 26 troops out to distract the national army, which is called the anti-Japanese advance team in the north. The 26th Army could not stand it, so it merged with the Helong Department, and its strength gradually increased. There were about 3w people at the peak. Later, Xia, the Central Commissioner, became the head of the party, government and army, and killed all those who didn't like it. During the Long March, the Second Army was the worst, because it always served as the rear team, and the troops in front ate all the grass and bark, and the Second Army was severely depleted, so it was basically unable to undertake combat tasks. During the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression period, the Second Army was changed to the 18th Army120th Division, and its commander was He Long.
The Red Fourth Front Army was formerly the Peasant Army of Jute Riot. Before Xu came to Hubei, Henan and Anhui, the troops were less than 2 K. Later, under the leadership of Xu, Pinghan Railway was attacked three times and its strength increased rapidly. The equipment of the army is all the weapons of the Kuomintang regular army, and its combat capability is very strong. On the eve of Zhang's appointment as chairman of the Party, Government and Army in Hubei, Henan and Anhui, his troops in Hubei were about 3w. Later, Zhang reorganized a group of people, killed a lot, but also promoted a large number of talents. The strength is still very strong. He fought many battles with the Central Army of the National Army and was besieged. Most of the Red Army from Hubei, Henan and Anhui entered Sichuan, about 1w people. After Sichuan's anti-three-way encirclement and suppression campaign and anti-six-way encirclement and suppression campaign, its strength has been enhanced. On the eve of meeting with the Central Committee, there were about 6w people in the Fourth Army, all of whom were stationed in Mazhuang. The troops were neatly dressed and brightly colored, compared with the big brother Red Army when they met. After the Long March, the Red Fourth Front Army was divided into East Route Army and West Route Army. On the way to receive Soviet aid, the marked army was completely annihilated, and the 2.2w main Red Army was wiped out by Ma Bufang's horse bandits. The failure of the marked army is mainly the victim of the central policy, but * * * (Chen Changhao Xu) also has unshirkable responsibility. The marked army was equipped with the most capable commander of the Red Army at that time (Xu Changhao) and the strongest main force of the Red Army at that time (the 30th Army). After the collapse of the marked army, Zhang was reorganized, his rights were overhead, and later he left the Communist Party of China (CPC); The East Route Army of the Red Fourth Front Army was reorganized into the 1st18th Army129th Division during the period of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression. Liu Bocheng's teacher and deputy teacher may be the most capable and active team in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression.
