NRA Army

NRA Army

A NRA Army, 軍, was a type of military organization during the Chinese Republic, and usually exercised command over two NRA Corps and often a number of Independent Divisions and Independent Brigades and some supporting units. The Chinese Republic had 30 Armies during the Second Sino-Japanese War. The use of the Army was gradually reduced, but not eliminated, in favor of the Army Group after the 1938 reforms.

NRA Corps, 軍團, usually exercised command over two to three NRA Divisions and often a number of Independent Brigades or Regiments and supporting units. The Chinese Republic had 133 Corps during the Second Sino-Japanese War. After losses in the early part of the war, under the 1938 reforms, the remaining scarce artillery and the other support formations were withdrawn from the Division and was held at Corps, or Army level or higher. The Corps became the basic tactical unit of the National Revolutionary Army having strength nearly equivalent to an allied Division.
