Pygmy Hippo's "Wait, you aren't Mao" Edges

Pistols:The Mauser C96 has a bigger round, longer range, more ammo, and a faster muzzle velocity but the TT-33 is lighter and longer. Edge:Xishan

Rifles:The Mosin-Nagant M1891/30 is lighter and has a faster muzzle velocity but the Hanyang 88 has a bigger round and is longer. They both have the same magazine capacity and range. Edge:Tie

Light Machine Guns:The ZB vz. 26 has a bigger round, is lighter,and has a longer range but the DP-28 has a faster rate of fire, more ammo, is longer, and has a faster muzzle velocity. Edge:Zhukov

Heavy Machine Guns:The PM M1910 has a longer range and is longer but the M1917 Browning machine gun has a bigger round, is lighter, and has a faster muzzle velocity. They both have the same magazine capacity and rate of fire. Edge:Xishan

Troops:The National Revolutionary Army wasn't around for as long as the Red Army but I don't think it was any less competent and it really comes down to leadership. Edge:Tie

X-Factors:In Training, Yan Xishan obviously takes it for having several years of training in Chinese and Japanese military schools as opposed to Georgy Zhukov's being a conscript with one year of training in cavalry, not infantry. In Experience, I give a much smaller edge to Yan Xishan for fighting in more wars than Georgy Zhukov and for a longer time. In Tactics, I actually give the edge to Yan Xishan again despite losing his battle for one simple reason, there is nothing but infantry in this fight, except for background combat but I digress, so Georgy Zhukov can't use his skills but Xishan can still use his guerrilla forces. Edge:Xishan

Final Verdict:Georgy Zhukov may be from the more remembered country in WW2 but it's clear that Yan Xishan is getting a victory in his first fight on Deadliest Fiction. Between his pistol, equal rifle, and heavy machine gun along with completely dominating the X-Factors, there's not much Zhukov can do. Yes, his army lasted longer and he has a better light machine gun but he's still going to be outgunned and outsmarted by Xishan.

Winner:Yan Xishan
