This article explores the early career of Chinese Nationalist General
He Yingqin, examining his origins and military training in order to
understand how he came to the attention of prominent men such as
Sun Yat-sen and Jiang Jieshi (Chiang Kai-shek) and subsequently
was able to gain a position of prominence in the government of
Nationalist China. It argues that He Yingqin and Jiang Jieshi developed
a working relationship based on common training and military
experience, a shared set of personal values, and a bonding experience
in combat in the Eastern Expedition of 1925. This relationship
paved the way for He Yingqin's rapid rise in the Nationalist military
and government.
