Nianzu Gangbat (Imperial Re-Uprising)

Nianzu Gangbat (Traditional Chinese: 年祖剛巴, Mongolian: Нианзу Гангбат) known by his palace name Nianzu Túfū (Traditional Chinese: 奈津屠夫, lit. "The Butcher") was a Chinese Nationalist, pan-Mongol nationalist and warlord who would later emerge as one of the "Council of Twenty Warriors", and serve as the Chinese Secretary of War between 2321-2360. In the history of modern China, he is one of the highest-ranking Mongols from Inner Mongolia to have ever held such a position.
A native Mongol from Inner Mongolia, prior to partaking in the Chinese Civil War against the Communist Party, Nianzu grew up in a rural community of ethnic Mongols, from a herding background. Like Ying Shen (originally born as Monkhbatynn Chuluun), and was subsequently persecuted by Chinese police, and fell victim to the Chinese government's various pogroms against indigenous non-Han.
Nianzu joined Ying Shen's "New Yuan Army", an ethnic Mongol paramilitary and rebel group in 2270, as Ying Shen was growing old. Nianzu proved to be worthy, due to his brute force, and wise attack tactics, something Ying Shen admitted he lacked. Shen also admitted that Nianzu was even brutal than he was, showing no mercy towards captured PLA personnel.
When the United Nationalist Army was formed, Gangbat would become the Commander of the Northern Theater. Gangbat survived decades of war against the PLA, even at one point, fighting against an entire battalion of PLA troops alone, as the rest of his battalion was killed in battle.
Because of Gangbat's brute force style, and enabling a large chunk of China's cattle industry to be controlled by Mongols, he was given the nickname "Butcher" or in Chinese "Túfū" (屠夫).
Thanks to Gangbat's war efforts, the majority of meat-packing plants and livestock ranches in northern China are owned by native Inner Mongolians. Northern China's largest meat-packing plant, Bei Meats Inc., is owned by an ethnic Mongol.

==== War of Martyrs Era ====
During the War of Martyrs era, Nianzu Gangbat was not aware of Ying Shen's movement. Gangbat resisted the PLA and CPC on his own, often-not, removing Chinese signs in predominantly Mongol-inhabited communities.
The Chinese government was slowly shadow-banning non-Chinese languages across the country, as Gangbat noticed that native Inner Mongolians were rapidly losing their fluency in Mongolian.
In 2270, Nianzu Gangbat heard of Ying Shen's movement. Ying Shen, is a veteran of PLA, and advised Nianzu to join the PLA as a covert agent. Therefore, Nianzu enlisted into the PLA as a covert.
Ying Shen was impressed by Nianzu's brute-force style of combat. In skirmishes with PLA personnel, Nianzu was very tactical, wise, but did not show any mercy to captured PLA personnel. 
Nianzu Gangbat would often lead raids on police stations across Inner Mongolia. Soon, he became Ying Shen's right-hand man. 
However, overtime, even Han Chinese began to support Nianzu Gangbat, with some anti-communist Han having joined the New Yuan Army, though it is not to say that either Ying Shen or Nianzu Gangbat treated their support without suspicion. 
==== Chinese Civil War ====
In the months leading up to the Chinese Civil War, Nianzu worked as a messenger for Ying Shen in contacting other rebel leaders throughout China. While the other rebel leaders contacted Ying Shen to lead the northern resistence against the Communist Party, Shen chose Gangbat instead, since Shen himself remembers committing atrocities of his own against Han Chinese civilians.
In addition, Gangbat fomented close ties with and friendships with the Han Chinese, and both Han and Hui rebel groups, feeling that he would be best to become a leader for the northern resistance. 
Thus, in 2282, as the new leader of the New Yuan Army, Nianzu transformed it into the Northern Theater of the United Democratic Nationalist Front with himself as the leader. While the majority of the Northern Theater's leaders were Mongols, it became mostly Han.
