The Great Disarmament 百万大裁‪军‬

In 1985, Deng Xiaoping, predicting that there would be no more world wars for the foreseeable future, and wishing to drive forward the Chinese economy, made the decision to radically transform the Chinese military. By 1987 a million soldiers had been decommissioned. Full of tragedy and humor, the experiences of the men and women affected by this pivotal change provide a fascinating insight into China and the Chinese military during this period. Their tales of love, hate, loyalty and greed will stay with you for a long time.
