When the Northern Expedition failed, the KMT fractured under the weight of military decisions. In the east, the KMT (now the LKMT) abandoned conventional warfare and turned to guerilla warfare, wanting to bleed the Zhili dry and deter future German support. While this goal was not fully achieved, Germany seems content to wait, with the 1932 Shanghai Uprising being the last major commitment Germany has made in China proper.

In the West, the KMT (now the RKMT) did not abandon the conventional fight persay, but retreated to the interior, bidding their time in Yunnan, Guangxi and Sichaun. While the RKMT still hold a significant force, this force is only allowed and maintained at the behest of Yunnan, seeing the RKMT as counterbalance between German economic influence and Zhili political domination. While this split was only military strategy initially, this split also happened to roughly coincide with internal KMT politics. As a result, the left and right branches of the KMT grew increasingly divided logistically with cooperation declining as a result.

However, the times are changing. With our revolt in the JiangFu Insurgent Zone, we have to realize that we alone can not conquer the Qing, crush the imperialists and complete Sun Yat-sen's Three Principles. As a result, LKMT operatives along the Vietnamese border along with Zhang Fakui will be sent to reconnect with the 7th and 3rd NRA Field Armies in Yunnan, offering to temporarily resolve our differences until at least Southern China is liberated, if not the whole of China from Zhili rule. We propose the following: control of all field-armies and forces fall under the control of the Central Committee, foreign aid be distributed in an unbiased matter, that a series of policy proposals be agreed upon domestically, the full re-admittance of 'RKMT' members into the KMT as a whole, and the re-admittance of RKMT figures to the Central Community. Once southern China is liberated, we can further discuss the future of the KMT as a whole.
