Analysis on the Supplies Raising and Transportation of the Eighth Route Army Office in Chongqing

Abstract

The second cooperation between the Kuomintang (KMT) and the Communist Party of China (CPC) contributed to the establishment of Eighth Route Army offices in various places. As an office established in the KMT-controlled area, the Chongqing office’s one key assignment was to request military pay and supplies from the Military Commission of the KMT Government, to seek assistance from international friends and overseas Chinese, and to procure and transport military and medical supplies, which played a helpful role for our army’s logistics supply.
