Many people are not  aware of Chiang's huge admiration for fascism.  Nazi Germany was one of Chiang's closest allies until the Sino-Japanese War that began in in 1937.  Chiang modelled his "Blue Shirts" on Mussolini's "Black Shirts".  Mao was forced to go on the "Long March" as a result of a military campaign organized by the very same German General von Seeckt who masterminded Germany's rearmament after World War I.
