The Nationalists had low morale due to systemic and political shortcomings: internal corruption and dissention, and economic problems. The Communists had subsisted for years in the Japanese rear, but morale was high because they seemed to offer a vision of a new China. Anyhow, the war against Japan had ended three years earlier.
