Li Zongren

Li Zongren, alternatively Li Tsung-jen, is a military commander for the Kuomintang and potential coup option. A staunch opponent of Chinese-Japanese collaborationism, he can coup the Nationalist government if Chiang Kai-shek agrees to the Ultimate Merger option of the Kuomintang and Manchukuo. If this is the case, Li Zongren can lead the Kuomintang into a two-front war against the Communist Party of China and the Japanese, which many would likely consider to be an impossible war.
