Red Army:

The Chinese Red Army of Workers and Peasants was the people's army led by China during the Agrarian Revolutionary War in China, which was referred to as the Red Army for short. 1928 On May 25th, China Central Committee decided that the National Revolutionary Army of Workers and Peasants was officially named the Red Army.

After 1930, it was gradually renamed the Chinese Red Army of Workers and Peasants. During the civil war between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, the Chinese Red Army of Workers and Peasants continued to grow and develop, and successively formed the First Front Army, the Fourth Front Army, the Second Front Army and the Northwest Red Army.

White army:

The White Army was an army that opposed the Soviet Union in the civil war in the early days of the founding of the Soviet Union 19 18-1920. It is mainly composed of royalists, militarists, liberal Democrats and moderate socialists who support the tsar and oppose the Soviet Red Army.

Extended data:

Strictly speaking, the White Army does not have a unified commander. Historians describe the White Army as a series of anti-red revolutionary alliances. The main generals of the White Army are Denikin and Colta.

The members of the White Army are also in a mess. Except for some Bolshevik opponents, many of them are local unemployed farmers and rabble, and their military strength is weak.

But at that time, the White Army was strongly supported by Britain, the United States, France and Japan, because these countries were worried that communist party would establish political power in Russia, and they tried to overthrow the rule of the Soviet Union and continue to push the White Army to participate in the First World War.

These countries supported the White Army, especially in Siberia, Ukraine, Crimea and the Far East, and even helped the White Army to establish a puppet regime as a base against the Red Army, which plunged the Red Army into several years of civil war.
