shouldn't this comment be in the other thread? :p
but anyway, the Chinese thought that the regulations they placed on the Japanese industry would be enough and, seeing as no event like the Nanjing Massacre (in scale or even intent) occurred, they really wouldn't have anything to get revenge for by purging the generals. thus, they only disbanded them. besides, even after the end of WW1 the vengeful Allied powers only disbanded the German general staff, they didn't shoot any of them outright.
 
thanks! I do indeed have another project coming up, I'll hopefully start it in late september or early october :D
