中共 (中华人民共和国)是东亚的一个小国。1936年开局时,它拥有701万人口。中共东边与晋系的国旗 晋系接壤,西边与西北三马的国旗 西北三马接壤,南边与中华民国的国旗 中华民国接壤。中共开局时通过极少的工厂和缺乏装备的军队控制了陕西这个贫穷的小省,但由于其多山的地形、合理的人口与开局时的要塞,使得他们不仅拥有良好的防御位置,还可以影响全中国甚至赢得内战。

历史背景

In 1912 following the Xinhai Revolution, the Qing Dynasty collapsed, and the Republic of China was formed. 1912年的辛亥革命将腐朽清王朝送入了坟墓,中华民国似乎继承了中国的正统。However, various warlords also arose, carving out territories from the former empire.然而,在清王朝尸体上萌发的军阀之花却在暗示着这个“中国正统”的脆弱。 In 1921, with the Western powers having ignored pleas for aid in confronting the warlords,1921年,随着西方列强在华势力的暂时衰弱, the {{flag|Soviet Union} 积极支持中国共产党与 answered by supporting both the Communist Party of China and the much larger Chinese nationalist Kuomintang government of the 中华民国的国旗 中华民国的国民党展开合作.

国策

People's Republic of China national focus tree.

The 中共的国旗 中共 gains a unique national focus tree in the 唤醒勇虎 Waking the Tiger DLC. Without this DLC enabled, Communist China uses the Generic national focus tree instead.

中共的国策可分为四大支线:

加强中央书记处线
该支线允许中共的国旗 中共服从 苏维埃联盟的国旗 苏维埃联盟,与 中华民国的国旗 中华民国建立联合政府或走上独立自主的道路。
土地改革线
该支线允许中共的国旗 中共增加科研槽,增长公众支持度并处理对外政治问题。
延安根据地线
该支线允许中共的国旗 中共应对日本的国旗 日本的威胁,与中华民国的国旗 中华民国结盟并暗中渗透和发展自身。
邀请外国投资者线
该支允许中共的国旗 中共向数个主要国家寻求工业援助。


科技

Communist China starts with only 2 research slots. It can gain three further slots from its national focuses: “Literacy Programs”, “China Medical University”, and “Form the Academy of Sciences". The first research slot is easily obtainable, but the other two require owning a certain number of factories to unlock.

策略与指南

A new dawn in China

中共的国旗 中共 finds itself in an equally precarious position as 中华民国的国旗 中华民国. While Nationalist China has to worry about its internal political stability, its unstable economy, its weak industry and military, hostile and opportunistic warlords and 日本的国旗 日本 that can threaten its holdings, it does have access to a satisfactory amount of manpower, has enough industrial capacity to mount a workable (if desperate) defense and can, with enough effort, execute enough reforms to stabilize its government and economy, build up its industry and military and secure its own territorial holdings and national sovereignty.

Communist China on the other hand has equally pressing issues at hand; while the communists do not have have the same political and economic stability problems to worry about as the nationalists, they control very little territory, manpower, industry and material and are exhausted and crippled after the Long March and will therefore be hard-pressed to hold their own in a direct confrontation with the Nationalists, Japan or even other Chinese warlords. In addition to all that, Communist China also has a rather lofty "victory" condition to aim for: somehow, the communists must survive through the Chinese Civil War, take over all of China and repel Imperial Japan before they can consider themselves truly successful.

That being said, Communist China is not completely broken, for a cornered animal might just be the most dangerous animal, as the Nationalists will soon learn.

Communism? Which one?

Communist China, unlike all other communist nations in the game, can actually decide what type of communism to adhere to: Marxism-Leninism or Maoism, or to adopt Social Democracy.

The Strengthen the Central Secretariat national focus leads to a crossroads with paths to choose from. Each one allows the player to clean up the internal mess of the government and recover from the damage suffered in the Long March by seeking support from other sympathetic nations.

Marxism-Leninism-Stalinism (Marxist Orthodoxy)

The Marxist Orthodoxy national focus and all focuses following it are based around the idea of adhering to the original version of communism by drawing closer to the 苏维埃联盟的国旗 苏维埃联盟 and the Comintern and having the two nations work together to spread the worker's revolution throughout the world. Electing this path will remove Mao Zedong from power and replace him with Wang Ming. Joining the Comintern can be helpful for players who either are new to Communist China or wish to play it safe and do not want to risk facing 日本的国旗 日本 and/or 中华民国的国旗 中华民国 alone as if Communist China is able to join the Comintern, any attacks directed against then will also draw the Soviet Union (and all of its allies/puppets as well) into the fight. The Soviet Union is one of the more powerful nations in the game and being in an alliance with them will not only offer a great deal of protection from hostile anti-communist nations but will also guarantee that the Soviets won't antagonize Communist China as long as it remains in the alliance.

Maoism (Agrarian Socialism)

The Agrarian Socialism national focus and all focuses following it are based around the idea of creating an uniquely Chinese interpretation of Karl Marx's theories (think Communism/Socialism with Chinese characteristics) and having Communist China take matters into its own hands and conquer Nationalist China through using its own abilities and resources. Mao Zedong will remain in power but Communist China will not be able to join an alliance unless via player intervention. Instead, it will form its own faction which can be used to invite other nations into, like 新疆的国旗 新疆 or any other warlord that decides to draw closer to the communists. This is the hardest path as Communist China will (in essence) be taking on Nationalist China and Imperial Japan on its own. Communist China will have to take maximum advantage of everything they have available for use including things such like infiltrating nationalist territory and staging uprisings, starting border wars to occupy neighboring provinces and boosting communist party popularity in Nationalist China among other things.

Social Democracy

The Social Democracy national focus and all focuses following it are based around the idea of co-operating with the nationalists by forging a coalition government between 中共的国旗 中共 and 中华民国的国旗 中华民国 and then subverting the political system from within to gain control that way. Choosing this path will remove Mao Zedong from power and replace him with Zhang Lan and Communist China will enter into a power struggle with nationalist China for political leadership over China. They will never be able to take the national focus Proclaim the People's Republic and form the 中华人民共和国的国旗 中华人民共和国 but if Communist China wins the power struggle, they will annex Nationalist China.

Building a new China

The Land Redistribution national focus opens up into three sub-branches, a small one that grants more Research Slots as Communist China's industrial capacity and infrastructure improves, a second medium-sized one that increases the popular support for Communist China and gets rid of some of its starting penalties and a third, large-sized one named The Yan'an Base Area which deals with whether or not Communist China should cooperate with the Nationalists or compete with them. It also includes a sub-branch for dealing with Japan.

Improving the economy

The Research Slot sub-branch should be progressed down whenever the player has the opportunity to do so as Communist China starts with only two Research Slots and can only unlock more by building up its industry and infrastructure.

The Land Redistribution branch allows Communist China to gradually get rid of the penalty Low Popular Support and it also presents them with a choice; Should Communist China embrace the Opium Trade by legalizing it and applying tax on it or should they ban it and exterminate it for good. Permitting the Opium Trade to continue will reduce the amount of factories allocated to Consumer Goods by 15% but will also apply a penalty named Government Corruption which causes a -10% penalty to Stability and Political Power output. This penalty is normally only found on the Chinese warlords and can be a notable hindrance in domestic politics. Exterminating the Opium Trade on the other hand, will award a flat +5% bonus to Stability with no strings attached.

Dealing with our neighbors

The final branch of the national focus tree, named The Yan'an Base Area deals with Communist China's foreign policy. They can choose to either cooperate with the Nationalists and form a faction with them, force the warlords to submit to their control and confront Japan. The decisions to cooperate with the Nationalists and confronting Japan are independent from one another so it is possible to take on Japan by oneself while also opposing the Nationalists, although this is only recommended for skilled players.

It is also worth noting that this branch of the National focus tree plays very closely with the choices taken in the Strengthen the Central Secretariat branch of the National Focus Tree so one has to be aware of what choices they made in that branch so as to not pick conflicting policies. If the player decided to cooperate with the Nationalists by electing the Social Democracy national focus, then they should refrain from picking any focus in this branch that antagonizes Nationalist China as this will only make it harder to work together. At the same time, if one decided to oppose the Nationalists by picking either Marxist Orthodoxy or Agrarian Socialism then they can more freely choose whether they should confront Japan first or best the Nationalists and then go after Japan.

A house divided against itself cannot stand (Cooperation)

Electing to cooperate with the Nationalists will lead to the formation of a faction between Communist China and Nationalist China as well as demands for all Chinese warlords to join it, creating a unified coalition of Chinese nations to better oppose 日本的国旗 日本. If Nationalist China decides to form the Chinese United Front on its own part, then Communist China can help provide more leverage by getting the Warlords to join the United Front as Nationalist China cannot do this by itself due to its focus tree lacking a national focus dedicated to that task while Communist China does have one. Once the Chinese United Front has been formed and all Chinese nations have joined it, Communist China will gain access to a repeatable decision that will, whenever it is taken, cause Japan and its puppets to suffer constant damage to their industry, infrastructure and even their army units, in hopes of provoking them into launching an attack.

The people shall stand up (Competition)

Electing to oppose the Nationalists will unlock a number of decisions that allows Communist China to infiltrate Nationalist-held territories and stage uprisings, causing those territories to revert to Communist China's control. Communist China will also gain access to a national focus that will give it wargoals against its two neighbors,晋系的国旗 晋系 and 西北三马的国旗 西北三马, which can allow the communists to expand their holdings by a noticeable amount and gain space to build factories and infrastructure to better oppose the nationalists. These weak neighbors have few 胜利点Victory Point provinces, so just bring some artillery support for an on-foot blitzkrieg onto their capital.

Even if Waking the Tiger is not present, you can increase communist popularity in Nationalist China to have neighboring provinces desert to you. Justify the "weak neighbor" wargoals manually: "retake core" is always quick. With no ideological choices ahead, you can take Sinkiang and join the Comintern for additional backup.

At the end of both of these sub-branches there will be a number of national focuses that will help improve Communist China's military high command as well as remove the Red Army Weakened penalty.

The People's Red Army (Military management)

Because Communist China lacks both resources and manpower it can be quite challenging to build up and maintain a respectable military to contend with the other Chinese factions. As such, when it comes to military build-up, Communist China should strive to collect all the low-hanging fruit that is within its reach to secure every advantage it can. In other words, try to focus on maximizing the utility of all options that you have access to resource-, factory- and manpower-wise.

In the early stages of the campaign, the Communist Chinese player should first prioritize making sure that all of their units (Communist China starts with 8 Infantry divisions) are fully equipped. It does not matter if the the equipment they are using is outdated, just make sure that every man has a rifle and ammunition at hand. Once the equipment issues are taken care of, the player can begin expanding their military;InfantryInfantry is cheap and easy to produce but it pays greatly to also introduce specialized units to augment the army's fighting capability. CavalryCavalry units can be of notable use as they are 1.8 times as fast as regular infantry at the cost of only being slightly more expensive in terms of supply use and equipment, which can make them useful as cheap rapid-response units to intercept and delay enemy units while other units make their way over to assist in the defense. ArtilleryArtillery can be quite a potent addition to Communist China's arsenal as, aside from 日本的国旗 日本 and, to some extent, 中华民国的国旗 中华民国, most other Chinese factions employ usually only Infantry along with some occasional Cavalry units so artillery can allow Communist China to score some decisive early victories against other warlords. Beware that artillery is rather expensive to produce in the early game given your lack of resources so it is best to first use support artillery (as it requires fewer guns, albeit at the cost of power) and only upgrade to line artillery (which is more powerful but requires more guns) once the player has secured the means to produce artillery reliably.

In addition to the base artillery, once sufficient industry and resources have been acquired, Communist China can further improve on its fighting capabilities by diversifying its arsenal and introducing Anti-tankAnti-Tank Artillery and Anti-airAnti-Air Artillery to the fray, granting them some means to effectively deal with tanks, trucks and planes, which can be a very valuable asset when facing 日本的国旗 日本

Given the limited initial manpower and industry of Communist China, if facing bigger opponents like Nationalist China or Japan, one possible strategy is to go for a more defensive approach by employing 陆上要塞Fortifications and 防空火炮AA defenses. Take advantage of terrain features like rivers as well as any terrain that inflicts a penalty to attacking units, like mountains, hills etc., to maximize the effect of your fortifications. A strong and properly built defensive line (especially if built in layers of multiple successive fort lines) can allow the player to more easily hold off attacks by stronger opponents and inflict casualties to drain their manpower and equipment. Just like Chiang Kai-Shek did with Nationalist China in real life, trading space for time can allow one to build up their industry to launch a decisive counterattack to cut off the enemy's supply lines and maybe even encircle and destroy some of their units. One example includes building a defensive line through the provinces of Shanxi and Shaanxi (which are both mountainous) and using it to hold off Japan (or possibly Nationalist China) to buy time, allowing Communist China to build 合成炼油厂Synthetic Oil and Rubber Refineries, allowing it to then deploy MotorizedMotorized, MechanizedMechanized or even Tank units to launch a counterattack and score a breakthrough.

When it comes to having an airforce, once again the lack of resources effectively prevents any sort of effective airplane production until Communist China can secure enough resources and factories to allow it. Once those resources and factories have been acquired, one could start by producing Interwar Fighters and Interwar Bombers to create at least a basic airforce to work with. Communist China will not be able to out-produce many of its opponents until later in the game, but having the means to acquire air superiority and bomb enemy units and buildings can go a long way in helping win the war. Be advised, though, that creating an airforce is a secondary priority; do not attempt it until you have the means to do it. Make sure that you are able to maintain a functional land army first.
