3. The 4th Army Corps, on the basis of which it was planned to form four front armies.
In late August 1930, the 1st and 3rd Army Corps met in Hunan to prepare for the attack on Changsha. At the joint meeting of the front committees of the two armies, the front committee of the three army corps with *** as the secretary proposed the establishment of the first front army, and the three army corps were incorporated into the first front army system. Therefore, the Third Army Corps was no longer expanded into the Third Front Army, and the Red Third Front Army was never established.
After the establishment of the Red Front Army, he served as commander-in-chief, general political commissar and secretary of the General Front Committee of the First Front Army, deputy commander, and Teng Daiyuan as deputy political commissar.
By the fall of 1933, the ** Military Commission planned to be newly formed.
The seventh, eighth, ninth, and tenth corps were combined into the Third Front Army. However, due to the failure of the fifth anti-"encirclement and suppression" campaign, the troops were forced to move north, and this integration plan was disrupted.

After the Red Army arrived in northern Shaanxi, they were reorganized into the Eighth Route Army of the National Revolutionary Army, while the plans of the Third Front Army were completely put on hold.
