About this episode
In this episode, we explore how Mao Zedong's communist forces, initially a ragtag guerrilla group, defeated Chiang Kai-shek's well-equipped Nationalist army, ultimately establishing the People's Republic of China. We also examine the crucial role of land reform and peasant support in Mao's revolutionary strategy, contrasting it with Chiang's conventional approach.Chapters01:48 Post-War China and Leaders02:53 Mao's Revolutionary Strategy04:11 The Tide Turns Hosted on Acast.
