Going to start the review soon after an initial reading of the page and checking of sources.

Roniius fixed the one major referencing issue in the page. There is no original research in the article and no plagiarism issues.
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
The article covers the National Pacification Army from its foundation, its activities, how it functioned, and propaganda for and against the army.
It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias:
I see no bias towards or against the army.
It is stable.
No edit wars, etc.:
Last edits made before mine were in June and before that in May.
It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
I love the images that you found for this article. You did a really great job image wise. Especially the one in the "Propaganda" section.
Overall:
Pass/Fail:
@Roniius: Congratulations on making such a good article. There were few issues with the article and offers great coverage of one of the fifteen billion different armies in China at the time.

Hey @Roniius: I noticed a major problem in the article. This section of text is completely unsourced. "In October 1925, Sun Chuanfang began the invasion of Jiangsu, and Feng began his invasion of Shandong, which was now under the control of Fengtian general Zhang Zongchang. In November 1925, general Guo Songling turned against Zhang Zuolin, siding with Feng. In January 1926, Zhang launched an offensive, ordering his troops in Fengtian and Shandong provinces to invade Beijing and Tianjin. In order to achieve peace, Feng expelled Duan Qirui from Beijing, reverting the political situation to what it was like before his coup, and was eventually forced to withdraw from area."
