The Long March - Part 1 (3 of 6)

[happosai27]

lol that must have been fun. shoting commies down like rats on the ground with your comical old fighterplane

[happosai27]

@campbpar wat? ^^ its le funny. commies are no real humans with souls. you can see that in their actions all the time. like deliberately starved some 10 millions to death in the ukraine to buy machinery in the west between 1932 and 33. "people" like that are capable of anything. i think commie regimes in the 20th century killed more people than all holy wars of the past combined. about 100 millions altogether i guess. ww1 and 2 excluded

[championofcathay]

@happosai27 lol yep then 14 years later the commies come back to gut the Nazi-supported pigs with a trusty old machete

[happosai27]

@championofcathay yes including some 50 million chinese on the way and later on after they got to power. being a godless massmurderer on their own people is truely something to be proud of

[Adonnus100]

@happosai27 godless lol? is that meant to be an insult?

[NgJackal1990]

What on earth those pilots were trained into? They couldn't bomb to the destruction of the man made bridge?

[godagast]

It is hardly fair to call Chiang a "coward". He recognised, correctly, that the Communists were ultimately a bigger threat than the Japanese. As for pulling back his troops when the Japanese advanced on Nanking, he had no choice after the lost battle of Shanghai. Again, it was a correct military decision.

The biggest irony in all this is that the China of today is actually much closer to Chiang's vision than to Mao's. Historians like Jay Taylor or Rana Mitter make a very good case for that.

All i hear is "IF IT WASNT FOR MAO ZEDONG, HOW WOULD WE HAVE NEW CHINA?" BS, if u didn't have Deng Xiao Ping, how would u have new china? DENG XIAO PING was a true hero, and if it wasnt for him China wuld still be poor and shitty and ppl wuld look at china as a peasant race...out of the whole People's Republic of China, i only admire Deng Xiao Ping and his associates. and i'll say this, Mao and Zhou had brilliant warfare tactics, they just fought for the wrong side..........

[itzdahryanwong]

@BboyKmt sup aaron lol xD

[zprodigalson]

@BboyKmt I agree totally. Mao and Zhou were brilliant military strategists, but Deng made China prosperous. Mao was too tight-fisted; not as brutal as Stalin, but still cruel. Nonetheless, Mao was key in ousting Japs and reunifying China from foreign colonialists. Korean War against US-led UN coalition was eye-opening moment in Chinese war tactics (Sun Tzu's "The Art of War") unleashed on Western Nations.

[BboyKmt]

my family was 6/7 KMT's, only a few of my grandmother's brothers stayed in China during the Mao era of china. and it was fking horrible. CHIANG WOULD HAVE NOT STARTED REVOLUTIONS, and who said life was fair, some unfortunatly die,buts the sacrifice for their countries well being and its future generations.look how well Chiang developed Taiwan in a matter of time, while Mao was struggling to turn China into a industrial country. The Great Leap forward, and cultural revolution was a epic failure

[mahatmashandi]

@BboyKmt im sorry didnt you watch the last one he was supported by ADOLPH HITLER and was a fascist

[BboyKmt]

dont talk about Chiang that way his decision to destroy the communists were right...if Chiang hadnt purged the commies, and allow communists to start a revolution at the years of 1935 or so,the Japanese would have already came in during the revo and fucking wiped out all of China's top generals..so what WHO KNOWS if Mao would have fought back immediatly,look how fucked up china was in the cultural revo,c'mon the red guards destroyed bout 4000/6000 chinese antiques,so dont say Chiang is a coward

[FXThug]

[CaptainCool07]

@FXThug yea they did its called hearts of iron

[newtonsecondlaw]

@CaptainCool07

paradox

Really hard to use the 1944 PLA.

[Dexter8445]

Very nice documentary! Thanks uploader

[TR3Y4LI4E]

i think the biggest war in ww2 was between RUSSIA AND GERMANY

[DrummerTurner]

I'm not sure why you insist The Long March was "during World War II" - It wasn't

[chikungmasterkiller]

world war 2 began in 1931 when japan invaded manchuria

[redxenos]

Most people seem to be under the impression that WW2 started on September 1st 1939. It's not a world war if the conflict is restricted to a particular region.

[chikungmasterkiller]

exactly, japanese and germans spent years invading other countries before the allied countries got involved.

[ANR164]

Haha are you kidding? WW2 began on the 1st of september in 1939.

[chikungmasterkiller]

thats only when france and england got involved stupid

[ANR164]

no thats when Germany attacked Poland, France and GREAT BRITAIN (not England, stupid) declared war against Germany on the 3rd.. read your history books again.. MATE!

[chikungmasterkiller]

shut up you stupid brit, none of you cunts would have survived if it weren't for america and the soviets.england is gay.

[DrummerTurner]

@chikungmasterkiller

ahahahaha "england is gay"

You're a fucking idiot who has no idea what he's talking about.

Nice argument though...

[chikungmasterkiller]

it had nothing to do with world war 2 except it was during the japanese invasion

[DrummerTurner]

@chikungmasterkiller

"it had nothing to do with world war 2"

really? In the description it say " during World War II. " which is how we got onto this debate,

You should probably make your mind up XD

Also, How is it a World War if only two countries are involved?
