Abstract

In the suppression of bandits in western Sichuan from 1950 to 1952, General Zhang Zuliang, commander of the military region and director of the National Committee, advocated and practiced the 12-character combat policy of "military strike, political struggle, and mobilization of the masses," and won the battle against bandits. Based on the data provided by patriotic comrades of intelligence staff of western Sichuan military region during the march into Heishui, this paper was intended to make more scholars understand to provide a basis for further academic research.
