CNN In-Depth Specials - Visions of China - Profiles: Lin Biao (962 words)
Lin had been at the academy less than a year when he was ordered to take part in Chiang's long-planned Northern Expedition to suppress the warlords -- who had ruled the countryside since the collapse of the monarchy in 1911 -- and reunify the country.
