In the ** period, the national ** also formulated a set of military rank system, which was divided into six grades, namely general, colonel, lieutenant, warrant officer, sergeant and soldier, and did not establish the rank of marshal. At that time, the generals were divided into five ranks, namely special general, first class general, second class general, lieutenant general and major general.
To put it bluntly, your position, qualifications, military merits, and suspension are enough to be promoted to general, but the seats in the box of the second-level general in front are full, so you will temporarily hang the rank of general and work first, but the rank of Quanxu is still a lieutenant general, and he also takes the salary of a lieutenant general, but he has the right of priority to be replaced, which can be understood as the rank of "quasi-general".
In order to prevent the proliferation of generals and highlight the prestige of army generals, according to the regulations promulgated by the Kuomintang in 1935, the number of army generals was limited, among which the special general was Chiang Kai-shek; Before 1949, there were 12 first-class generals, including Feng Yuxiang, Zhu Peide, Li Zongren, He Yingqin, Zhang Xueliang, Chen Jitang, Tang Shengzhi, Yan Xishan, Chen Shaokuan (navy), Cheng Qian, Bai Chongxi, and Chen Cheng.
The so-called "lieutenant general plus general rank", in fact, means that the rank of general cannot be promoted due to the lack of vacancies, so such a "lieutenant general + general" thing is set up to make up for it, and when the vacancy is vacated by the second-level general, the general will be officially promoted to the general on the basis of merit.
The rank in the Kuomintang army was "sixth class and eighteenth class".
The sixth class is: general, colonel, lieutenant, warrant officer, sergeant, and soldier.
The generals are divided into special generals (five stars), first-class generals (four-star), second-class generals (three stars), lieutenant generals (two stars), and major generals (one star), and generals are divided into five levels.
In the mid-thirties of the last century, almost two years before the Anti-Japanese War, in order to solve the problem of this faction, the national ** made a separation of the rank of the post and the rank of Quanxu. In order to limit the number of high-ranking military ranks, mainly for local powerful factions, Jiang made a limit on the number of generals ranked, which led to the emergence of the rank of lieutenant general and general. **10,000 Fans Incentive Plan
