Research On Guangzhou National Military Training (1929-1938)

National military training is a military training and mobilization conducted by the Nanjing National Government authorities to enhance national defense and organize the people under the background of the time when foreign aggression is urgent.The thesis takes the Guangzhou National Military Training as the object of investigation,and on the basis of sorting out the implementation and development of the Guangzhou National Military Training,and then on the Guangzhou National Military Training after the Guangzhou local military power faction intervenes in the local national military training.The situation of "alienation" presents history.Through the exploration and analysis of a series of reasons that restrict its expected results during the implementation of the Guangzhou National Military Training,it reveals the fundamental reason why the Nanjing National Government is unable to achieve great results in organizing and mobilizing the people.After the "Jinan Massacre" occurred in May 1928,in view of the invasion of foreign enemies and the lack of national defense education,the Nanjing National Government began to implement military education and training in schools at all levels across the country the following year.Since the mid-1930s,with the gradual intensification of Japan’s aggression against our country,in order to enhance the people’s concept of a nation-state,they have the determination and ability to sacrifice for the country.The Nationalist government began to promote social military training across the country,and the scope of national military training expanded from schools to the entire society.For Guangzhou,it has long been the actual control area of the Cantonese warlords.For the purpose of consolidating their own rule,the local military power faction did not follow the pre-determined goal of the national military training.The implementation of the Guangzhou national military training was organized as an urgent organization for foreign insults.It is an important way to mobilize the local people,but to use it as an important means to control the local people and enhance their own military strength.Therefore,the national military training has become "alienated" in Guangzhou.Through corresponding military education and training for students and the public,to a certain extent,the trainees have strengthened the concept of a nation-state,and they have the determination and ability to sacrifice for the country.The trainees who completed the training played an active role in maintaining the local social order in Guangzhou and supporting the anti-Japanese activities in the Guangzhou area by organizing various anti-Japanese service groups and armed forces.However,the implementation of the Guangzhou National Military Training was limited by the confusion of its own management system,lack of funds,and the perfunctory implementation of the various training policies issued by the Nanjing National Government by the local government authorities,which resulted in the effectiveness of the local national military training in Guangzhou.Greatly discounted.In addition,in order to strengthen their rule over Guangzhou,various political forces did not abandon their tight control over the general public during the entire national military training process.Instead,they used national military training as a political tool to monitor and control the people of Guangzhou..Under the dual constraints of the external political environment that controls the people and its own internal ills,the implementation of Guangzhou’s national military training is inevitably restricted to a large extent and it is difficult to achieve the expected results.In the end,It ended in failure.
