When talking about the outstanding generals of Chiang Kai-shek's military clique in recent history, the common figures are always from the Whampoa Military Academy, the Baoding Military Academy, the Yunnan Jiangwutang or the Japanese Non-commissioned Officer School. Few people mention that any of the top generals was not from a military academy, and even Chiang Kai-shek himself studied at the Baoding Military Academy.
The people's army, on the other hand, has produced many high-ranking generals, who have not been educated in military academies but have been trained and raised in war. Surprisingly, in the people's army, more than 80% of the generals rose to prominence in the war, and less than 20% received a formal military education.
