HoI4 Guide - Communist China: The People Have Stood Up Achievement - La Résistance

so Chairman Mao has his glorious hairline as fifty civilian factories that as disposal 19 military ones so not too far off our second achievement the made in China you need more than 100 military factories this is just a matter of building a few more and it's still early enough for you to have an impact on World War two and take whatever course you like but first if you like these videos leave a like consider subscribing for more of them and hit me up in the comments with what you want to see next now onto the video hey folks bittersteel here back with another guide for hearts of iron 4 also has as anyone ever noticed that guys super creepy that face that is creepy face now today I have for you Communist China with Mao Zedong who apparently had pretty great hair before his hairline made the long march away from his face what we're gonna try to get today is the achievement that people have stood up which requires us to conquer all of mainland China except for the European provinces as Communist China and as you can see Communist China not particularly large and surrounded by people bigger than it but that's why we're here I'm gonna fix this leave you down Ironman mode historical focus is on and start the game first things first organize the military and we do start out with a rather significant amount of Units relative to our size Mao in charge you line everything up on the Shanxi border convert our entire army to the weakest template a unit one these reserve divisions give us a few more guns and manpower next train up sixteen of these divisions that should round out your army to full 24 yeah put them on high priority and just start force deploying these as soon as you're able just want to get these out the door as quickly as possible production everything in guns for now just straight up guns guns guns construction you'll notice we don't have any building slots so just get max infrastructure here I guess that's all we can do research we'll start out with the usual suspects electronic engineering and a solution national focuses a good one to start would be land redistribution and the Soviet Union is going to be our main trading partner this entire campaign Poppa Stalin loves us now set the game to Max and start running we're gonna keep this running until we have 25 political power we need exactly 25 to be able to justify a war goal on shang-chi we're gonna manually just fine instead of relying on the focuses because this is a little bit quicker we don't really need anything else that we use political power for anyway so 25 political power it's just a fire war go on whatever go you know I'll keep forcing these units out our next break will be a 37 political power 37 political power is required to justify a war goal on G base and mass so we'll wait for that a few moments later before a lot of 37 political power justify war goal retake course state whatever state you like and keep things moving along just get these units out the door we need 24 of them land redistribution done our next focus we're gonna get another research slot there we go we have 24 units in the field they're all garbage and most of these soldiers don't even have a gun it doesn't matter you're not gonna use them to do much actual fighting for now anyway why do we want 24 of them because with those numbers we can easily swarm the enemy will be fighting some of our with your neighbors soon and they just don't have enough troops to fill out their front line meaning we could just go around and capture a victory points and capitulate them without actually fighting their army which also means we get all of the equipment in that army because it's not destroyed so we're just going to be taking guns from our neighbors as well as producing them so our shortage does not last long now let's continue with our research mechanical computing industry wise disbursed industry here after we get our research slots the next focus is the strengthen the central secretariat to get ourselves some political power and the extra research slot can be used to start work on artillery why artillery well you'll see and with the justification complete we can declare war on Shang she is just declare a war girl simply use one division per enemy division to just pin them in place and everyone else is this going to be walking around them and going other places just extending the frontlines making them over longer allowing us to just walk wherever because the AI doesn't have the troops to fully man the frontlines but try not to actually destroy these divisions that you're fighting here we want their equipment to go to us and not just be destroyed and with minimal effort we have defeated sham she got almost a thousand guns off them it's great it's better than no guns let's take all of their states and align the army up on the sea based on my border draw an offensive line here somewhere doesn't really matter now our next phase because we now border the Communists of the Comintern they'll be more than happy to let us into the faction yes we will return to the bosom of papa Stalin will not actually be using the Comintern to do our fighting for us that's gonna be all us why do we join them because our neighbors here Sheba sanma and Singh can now see the Soviet Union and Mongolia as a threat and will start garrisoning their borders with them well every soldier that not on our border is a soldier we don't have to fight that we can easily walk around them and do the same thing - Sheba sanma and sink yang as we did to Shanxi even though they do have enough troops to actually man their front lines which is gonna be so spread out that they will fail to do so now speaking of sink yang it's also justify a war call on sink yang whatever steak you liked really and with this strengthen the central secretariat we're done onto agrarian socialism just get rid of a small portion of a very bad national spirit just just ease or is it yes ease this one a little bit because 50% production speed and 15% factory output is horrible I just want to get rid of that or at least mitigate it as quickly as we can we also have a large pool of political power now let's get ourselves a military theorist to get some well deserves army experience as a side effect of bypassing enemy army is that we're not actually fighting the enemy army and we're not getting a lot of experience and we do need to adjust our divisions lay down and with artistic vacation on Russia base I'm not done let's declare war and do to them what we did to Xiang XI simply pin their units on the frontlines in place and the rest of the troops could just go around them and circle the divisions capture victory points and just end this war in very quick manner and same here don't destroy any divisions if you can simply encircle them and leave them we would very much appreciate their equipment in our coffers or vaults or stock piles or whatever also don't call in the Soviet Union don't call in Mongolia don't even call in Tana Tuva don't call anyone and otherwise they might start taking territory and we need that territory and with told artillery done let's get ourselves some support equipment as well and start producing some of that towed artillery we I think three factories should do the rest keep that in guns with the enemy army bypass them keep them pinned in place a little bit longer and they'll not be much of a threat just one new unit for each of theirs and the rest can go to the main frontline just walk to the victory points with agrarian socialism done we'll work on the ioan on base area start getting ready for our Wars Japan which is inevitable will also hold on to our political power for a bit it's very much like to go on to free trade why look at those bonuses they're amazing compared to closed economy gives us nothing and we don't even have that many resources so I don't just go to free trade whenever you can with this first one done let's get this person to and support weapons there we go see based on my capitulates giving us another 1.5 k guns which is a lot and again just to take all their stuff one more week neighbor left sink yang get line everyone up on the border draw your offensive line and wait for justification to finish and with supporting equipment done we'll also start producing some of it we don't need as much of it so two factories should be good and keep the rest in guns will still another amount of the guns from sinking so guns are not the main concern right now usually towed artillery or just part illy in general that takes the most time to build research wise let's get ourselves some port companies yes the engineers engineers are good for defense are great for defense really the UH non-base area done we will have to prepare for war with Japan one thing to note if this focus finishes while you're already in a faction it will bypass the government of National Defense focus we don't want that to happen we want to do this focus so we can create the Chinese faction of which I can't quite remember the name just yet so anyway before this finishes leave the Soviet Union or the Comintern just leave them with about two days left one day left and then move on to the focuses justification complete again declare war don't call your allies and just walk all over them and with support weapons done let's get ourselves some new rifles and with two days left on the focus let's leave the Comintern behind us first let's accept Papa Stalin's gift here maybe he'll still send it yeah I don't know leaves a faction and you'll notice the Soviet Union hates us now that faction traitor debuff is quite large and it will definitely contribute to the Soviet Union no longer sending us any lend-lease is for the foreseeable future which is unfortunate those free guns would have helped but this way we were able to conquer our neighbors in record time without any effort at all and let's get the government of national defense and with xingyang capitulating they have almost a thousand guns for us as well it's good we have quite a few guns now plus a few times and take all states a voila after a few almost insignificant wars we now control a large portion of China it's a pretty terrible portion that is large certainly more than what we had now let's line up our boys on the border with men ku quo and wait for Japan to come knocking with that bit of warfare behind us let's look to or divisions we can keep this which is it yes this is unit 1 division as is it's terrible is completely useless but yeah our troops will just be standing here taking hits from Japan anyway and nationalist China is usually gonna pour a massive amount of the visions in there so our divisions don't matter at the start this war what we are going to do is prepare our units that will matter add another Infantry Division and to artillery here this is the old 7 2 standard now usually I say this is pretty terrible to fight in any other war and it is it is pretty terrible because it doesn't have a great amount of defence it doesn't have a great amount of breakthrough you're usually better off just stacking a full block of infantry here until they get 20 combat with and use that as your defensive fodder but these are desperate times which call for desperate measures and since we will be using these divisions to fight China later on all this extra soft attack is going to help because China uses straight-up pure infantry division's which will get shred by our soft attack but you'll see that later on in the video let's save this and we'll be building this one up as more experience trickles and and we unlock some more divisions or support equipment again we're not gonna switch everyone over right away because you can see we have a significant shortage of pretty much everything we'll do that later once we actually have the stuff now with this first industry in the bag let's also get improved machine tools want to get production up as quickly as possible and since Japan is going to come knocking soon let's get ourselves an infantry experts 10% division attack and 15% division defense for our infantry is pretty great since we're going to be mainly an infantry based nation for this campaign and our engineers are complete we'll be adding this to our template once we have the army experience next up the radio if wala we have finished the government of the National Defense which will cause us to create a faction yes the government of National Defense faction which is basically our version of that Chinese one you know the one I keep forgetting your name so we'll just be starting to add units or rather members to it regular China or Nationals China joins right away as you can see and then these events will pop up whenever one of the warlords wants to join as well always accept them into the fold they're great to have more units more fodder great as for our next focus we will be getting the rectification campaign to get rid of in power struggles power struggles is pretty bad 25% cost to advisors economy laws etc so we just want to get rid of this as well now while we wait for this infrastructure to finish building in our capital can also start building a bit of these military factories wherever you have the highest infrastructure which is 30% not great once the infrastructure and the capital finishes try and focus your efforts towards construction there everything you built there will be finished quicker with Japan justifying against us or our friends let's get ourselves some doctrines since we are going to be artillery based and drowning the Chinese in soft attack later on let's also combine that with the superior firepower doctrine and as we conclude our rectification campaign Japan has done their focus 40 Marco Polo Bridge incident meaning they've declared war on China and will be joining them in that work very soon for our next focus we are going to focus on China giving us a defense and attack modifier on core territory and all of China is our core territory so that's super useful research wise let's follow up with some construction now when China asks you for help you of course join them even if it's just to form some army experience from the Japanese smashing into your lines now as soon as war starts have a look at the front lines sometimes the AI is doing some crazy stupid stuff trying to exploit that as much as you can pin divisions in place with divisions that are not in use and attack enemy weak points or even unoccupied territories that can be great get an early edge in this war and we've pushed in one tile and there's more unoccupied tiles so use your other divisions to keep everyone pinned down while you take as much land as you can now we have the army experience let's add in engineers to our future template and that's all the pushing that we're going to do Japan has responded rather quickly and they've shored up their lines there's no more gaps here that we can exploit or extreme weaknesses we're just going to sit here and wait until we have enough equipment definitely need a lot more so we have enough equipment to switch out this army to the better template as well as building up some bonuses against the Japanese through our focus trees and we're just going to make ourselves stronger for a nice decisive push while China does most of the fighting the Nationalists will be taking the brunt of the losses they'll also be the ones dealing with naval invasion we're not going to be helping the Nationalists unless it's absolutely vital to our own survival so it would appear the Nationalists have taken these tiles instead of us well if the Nationalists want them that badly they can be the ones dying for them we'll just pull back to our territory but the Japanese overwhelm that and just come back and conquer it once already perón counter-offensive it's a radio out of the way let us come these Recon companies who are divisions some more a few inches later concluded our focus on China let's turn towards maoism 10% stability which is great we could use some more stability but more importantly a 10% reduction in the production cost of infantry equipment very nice and we also have the political power for another change let's ramp it up to total mobilization yes we'll lose the 3% for Google pub but as China this does it really matter no no it doesn't now as long as you have a low stability these events are gonna keep popping up or at least have a chance of popping up to be safe just pick the most expensive option you want these strikes be out of the way as soon as possible if you're into this sort of thing you can also create the Intelligence Agency this will help you build up some more offensive bonuses against the Japanese through the use of the encryption and decryption mechanics I I quite like this so I tend to create an agency and with superior firepower done we are not gonna continue down this tree unless we have a hundred army experience to expedite it yes we're going to improve our artillery just look at the nationalists wasting manpower and equipment on these pointless assaults on Japanese position you really can't rely on the air to do anything right with my wisdom done let's keep working on that stability we're almost over 50% so it's enforced the three rules construction out of the way let's get the construction tool so we need a lot of these military factories built it's good to work on the infantry equipment looks likes China well the Nationalists are doing quite well here this is somewhat bad for us but nothing we can't fix later on and with the three rules enforced we can make choice regarding the opium trade if you side with permit the opium trade you get a very nice bonus through consumer goods factories at the cost of 10% political power and political power gain and a loss of 10% stability or you can ban the opium trade giving you a straight up 5% space and stability I prefer just to get these stability here and let's get that improve your - and with the opium trade dealt with we can take abolish of the land rent and get rid of that low popular support with the construction out of the way we're still a bit ahead of time regarding the industry to pick up the computing machine instead and with the land rent and polish they have a nice stability let's head for the revolutionary military commission so it can go down here there get rid of that Red Army weakened national spirit and some more political power to invest let's get rid of service by requirement to get extensive conscription ins that we have more than enough manpower as is having just completed the improved artillery hands also get these improved guns it's a little bit ahead of time let's just get ourselves some dispersed industry regarding research it gets a bit tedious of constantly repeating what we're doing so essentially what you're going to be trying to do is keeping everything up to date focusing on industry electronic engineering and infantry equipment and whenever you find yourself having a hundred army experience consider dropping one research slots into the army doctrines and with the revolutionary military commission we have bypassed provoke Japan well cuz we're at war with them and we have the option to go with either protracted warfare giving us a very large defensive bonus or a mobile warfare giving us a very large offensive bonus and some army organization regain I prefer the offensive part of the street because we will be doing a lot of attacking and the 100 regiments campaign leads to a decision which will give us another large bonus versus the Japanese so mobile warfare it is meanwhile just keep building military factories reductions coming along nicely let's also add those recombinant attachments to our future divisions see how far we're all not too far off now we should be ready for our counter-offensive soon well warfare out of the weights get 100 treatments campaign preparation of our counter-attack let's start spending our political power on the army army logistics expert always a nice addition three days later and with the undergraduates out of the way let's get that central military commission so we can move down here and get rid of the Red Army weekend ha we are fully decrypted the Japanese and Manchurian ciphers check on the state of our army we're almost there 200 off I think we can swap those units over now wait for a bit for everything to fill in convert everything to the new template wait a bit for all that equipment to start pouring in set our reinforcements to high priority start training a bit of his father to fill in the gaps as well yeah al it does appear the Japanese are going to be sufficiently distracted by doing a bunch of naval invasion the Nationalists will also be distracted by this now is the right time to launch our counter-offensive fire off all of these ciphers giving us a nice bonus into our decisions they're going to launch this 100 regiments offensive as well for another offensive bonus and we're going to use our infantry battering ram to go right through the Japanese here with the speed way down our focus will be to punch holes through the Japanese lines and quickly spread out after their lines to create encirclements to just caused general mayhem to the Japanese a I just throw chaos into their lines so it can quickly expand [Music] so once you've punched the hole through their lines keep advancing keep pinning units into their positions keep attacking the units with low organization to constantly expand and put pressure on the Japanese [Music] more improvements for the army with the army regrouping experts the percent of division of recovery rate and through these small encirclements just keep destroying Japanese divisions find the gaps in their line find the weak points concentrate your best divisions there punch through try to get more land more encirclements and keep building that pressure micromanagement is key to minimize your losses and maximize your gains and with People's Liberation Army out of the way we have gotten rid of the Red Army weak international spirits let's prepare for our offensive against the Chinese the war in Manchuria should be cleaned up relatively easily get infiltration [Music] and as you can see once the Japanese fall into disarray it's completely pizza for them I think they've pulled most of their troops out of Manchuria to reinforce this pocket near Ching now now this is rather unfortunate for some reason the Nationalists have received occupation of all of Manchuria this isn't a giant problem this just extends our border with China for the Civil War portion of the guide ideally this will all flip to you giving you an even easier time of it unfortunately we have been dealt a bad hand this entire area is pretty bugged gameplay-wise with the cores etc and occupation not flipping to whoever takes the land it's fine it's no big deal we can handle this twenty minutes later and unfortunately it seems we have reached the point where the Japanese Chinese peace event is not firing once again paradox has delivered a giant pile of buggy on to this area of the world so if this happens to you you have absolutely no other choice but then to restart your game so I'll have to restart another campaign I'll be back after this commercial break one eternity later now as you can see we've played through this again with a little more success this time the peace event has fired correctly the occupation of the territory went to us at this time as well it's bit hit-and-miss regarding who gets it either you or the Nationalists not too much to worry about this doesn't change a very big deal about the game it's just a little more territory to take nationalists usually don't have a lot of troops up here in Manchuria now it's left for us to do is to garrison our borders spam out more troops and prepared to take down the Nationalists now to deal with the Nationalists you're going to use your good divisions through these well good they had to have a lot of soft attack to easily chew through these Chinese divisions we'll use these as an offensive line defensive part of our front lines but we're gonna spam out a ton of these rather weak 10 with infantry stacks to just line up on our border and just soak up losses and delay the Chinese just spam them out they don't really need to be all that great now with the infiltration focus complete we have the Chintu infiltration nationalist areas we're just going to pick a random nationalist area and infiltrate them giving us access to the launched communist uprising decision this is what we're going to use to get China to go to war with us once we have all this infantry equipment in the field we'll use the next 500 to start preparing for the communist uprisings and then we can move on to the next part of the guide three weeks later and we have the equipment now now just pick any area you like to infiltrate doesn't really matter so we'll take 60 days to complete after which we can launch the communist uprising which will take another 60 days to complete with the area infiltrated we now have access to launched communist uprising I'm gonna click this this gives us a 60 day timer we're going to let this run until day 59 at the end of day 59 before we hit the 60-day mark we're going to kick China from our faction because if we don't kick China from our faction this will fail we can't declare war on a faction member and if we kick China from our faction too early they will risk being guaranteed by the UK or the u.s. one in one of the allies really that's not something we want so we're gonna wait until the very last minute preferably on the hour before we declare war here or rather before we kick them from our faction there is now one day left in two hours another one or two not exactly sure the event is going to fire so we're gonna kick China from our faction right now pick them from our faction this should not have enough time to receive a guarantee now there we go the war has fired they never got a guarantee so this is our time to go to war now with our beefed up divisions full of soft attack we should be able to shred through them without much difficulty and in the confusion they haven't even garrison their borders properly we can just completely walk over them just look at our divisions all that green were just shredding their units there's nothing they can do to stop us [Music] avala the nationalists have capitulated and it's still a lot of stuff left to give us we just pass a few times they call their states Hey voila nationalist China has been absorbed now it's just a matter of kicking our puppets from the faction and conquering them one by one well as you can see because we no longer had a use for our own faction after kicking Yunnan and Wong she out have joined the Comintern to turn to the warm bosom of Papa Stalin this will keep us safe from Japanese war declarations as well only do this after you've started your justifications otherwise you might entice the Allies to guarantee either you not order one sheet click now when you declare war on Yunnan and when she don't call the Soviets in if you've joined the Comintern we can handle this on our own and there's no risk of them taking our stuff that way that's one sheet out of the way a lot of stuff taken here let's take all of their stuff pass a few times and take all their stuff follows one down line everyone on the Yunnan border I will repeat the same process justification complete that is the end of the Yunnan simply declare war call away [Music] a voila you none out of the running as well pass a few times take to other states and done voila that is the People's Republic of China well - Tibet but that's a contentious subject this should be all the territory you need for the achievements 1941 so there's plenty of time left to make an impact in world war 2 take whatever course you want as you can see once you've dealt with Japan in Manchuria China itself is hardly a problem simply because all they field is ridiculous your infantry stacks and soft attack choose right through them so Chairman Mao has his a glorious hairline has fifty civilian factories that is disposal 19 military ones so not too far off our second achievement the made in China you need more than 100 military factories this is just a matter of building a few more and it's still early enough for you to have an impact on World War two and take whatever course you like I hope you like this video if you liked it leave a like consider subscribing tell me in the comments what you want me to try next maybe some challenges some other achievements or some more obscure countries if you dislike the video hit that dislike button tell me what I did wrong in the comments always looking to improve this has been me bittersteel I'll see you in the next one bye

Great content my dude, watched all your achievement guides in the last few days and got the Qing China achievement by playing along. Keep up the great work!

[u/d_rome]

Great guide and I appreciate you pointing out the issue of China taking over Mengkukuo instead of Communist China. I'm a new player and I ran into the same issues thinking that it was something I did. I loaded the game at a certain point a few times and the territory flipped over to Communist China like it should have. If that isn't a bug but a "feature" then I'd like to understand why it happens.
